– As we first noted on Friday, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker were being advertised for next week’s RAW from Los Angeles.
WWE has confirmed that Michaels and Taker will be appearing next week and it looks like Michaels will be there to promote WWE Studios’ “The Resurrection of Gavin Stone” as speculated.
For what it’s worth, it was also speculated (but remains unconfirmed) that they also could have something to do with a formal announcement for Wrestlemania 34, which is being reported as returning to New Orleans, where RAW will be next week.
