    On Raw tonight, Charlotte defends her Women’s Championship against Bayley tonight in a Royal Rumble rematch, while Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho are set to have Festival of Friendship. Can Bayley overcome the woman that has bested her more than once over the years? Bayley is the ultimate underdog but maybe she can pull out a win tonight, or a few weeks down the line at Fastlane. Regardless, Nia Jax casts an ominous shadow over the entire division. And what exactly is a Festival of Friendship? Well we have no idea but there will undoubtedly be streamers, party hats, and maybe even a conga line. The festival aims to reaffirm the deep bond between Owens and Jericho but maybe we’ll see the ice start to crack, setting-up a WrestleMania showdown. Or maybe Goldberg will run down and Spear them both into a giant cake!
