5 things you need to know before tonight's WWE Monday Night RAW (March 11th, 2019)

#1 The Animal to come face-to-face with his mentor

Expect tensions to boil over when these two legends of WWE meet face-to-face tonight.

Two weeks ago, the Animal Batista made his shocking return to Monday Night RAW, ambushing his mentor and friend Ric Flair.

Flair, who had been celebrating his 70th birthday, was left a broken heap by Batista, who asked Triple H if he had his attention now?

He certainly did, as the Game invited Batista to RAW last week, and the two will meet in person tonight.

With WrestleMania around the corner, a match between the two seems guaranteed, a rematch of their WrestleMania 21 bout.

And whilst that was the night that the beloved Batista emerged from his mentor's shadow, now the tables have turned.

The Game is looking for vengeance for the Nature Boy, and may not wait until WrestleMania when he and the Animal meet tonight.
