Roman Reigns on Raw: SmackDown stars Invade WWE Raw . A Surprise return and not one but two Wrestlemania matches announced tonight!
Roman Reigns had earlier announced that he would kick off Raw. True to his words the Big Dog did appear on Raw. But before he could even begin to explain what his unfinished business was, former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan also made his comeback. Meltzer had earlier reported on his Wrestling Observer Radio, speculating his return.
But if you thought that was the only surprise for tonight you’d be wrong. WWE Champion Kofi Kingston also turned out for the Red Brand!

An incensed AJ Styles soon came out to the ring and spoke about how he never had the same opportunity when he was on SmackDown. Vince simply defended their appearances by saying that it was allowed under a new Wild Card Rule completely rendering the Brand Split obsolete.
Roman Reigns will take on Drew McIntyre while Kofi faces Bryan in a rematch for the WWE Championship.
