There will be no house shows in North America this weekend, as both WWE brands (RAW and Smackdown) have travelled to Japan, and will work shows today and tomorrow Saitama, Japan. According to WWE.com, this will be their last shows this year in Japan. They haven't posted a line-up on WWE.com for the today's show, but here is the announced card for tomorrow:
- World Champion Batista vs. Triple H, with Ric Flair, in a Streetfight.
- WWE Champion John Cena vs. JBL & Orlando Jordan in a Handicap match.
- Rey Mysterio, Kane & Undertaker vs. Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle & Edge.
- Chris Jericho vs. Shawn Michaels.
- Big Show & Akebono vs. Carlito & Matt Morgan.
- Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Benoit.
- Cruiserweight Champion Paul London vs. Chavo Guerrero vs. Sho Funaki.
- Yoshihiro Tajiri vs. Muhammad Hassan, with Daivari.
- Stacy Keibler, Torrie Wilson, and Christy Hemme are also scheduled to appear.
This show will likely see the last Batista vs. Triple H singles match for the foreseeable future. The show also features several unique "inter-brand" matches.
Both crews then head to Sacramento, California on July 4th for the "Supershow" with a live Raw broadcast and Smackdown taping. When both brands get back on the road, it will be interesting to see how the draft and talent trades change what has become (for the most part) repetitive house show line-ups.
