29-year-old set to face Judgment Day member in a grudge match on WWE RAW
A WWE veteran has been booked for a grudge match against a 29-year-old star this week on RAW. Tomorrow night's edition of the red brand will be the first show following Clash at the Castle last night in Glasgow, Scotland.
Rey Mysterio was scheduled to team up with Dragon Lee to battle Santos Escobar and Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania XL. However, Carlito attacked Lee before the match out of jealousy and has since been hanging around The Judgment Day on WWE RAW. Damian Priest seemingly doesn't trust the veteran, but he can be seen in the faction's locker room every week.
The promotion has announced today on social media that Dragon Lee will get a chance to get some revenge on Carlito tomorrow night on RAW. The two will be squaring off in a singles match.

Andrade wound up teaming with Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania and the duo defeated Escobar and Dirty Dom. Lane Johnson and Jason Kelce from the Philadelphia Eagles got involved in the action and helped the babyfaces pick up the victory.
Former WWE manager praises Carlito's heel turn
Carlito was caught red-handed earlier this year on SmackDown as footage of his attack on Latino World Order's Dragon Lee was shown. The 45-year-old humorously scampered through the crowd rather than deal with the repercussions when the video was played.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk show earlier this year, Dutch Mantell stated that he enjoyed the segment. Mantell noted that Carlito's reaction was hilarious and his face was priceless during the segment.
"I kind of liked it," said Dutch Mantell. "Now, you have to have liked Carlito's face when he saw it; he threw him over there [at Rey Mysterio], and then he took off [laughs]. That was good," he said.
Dragon Lee dethroned The Judgment Day's Dominik Mysterio of the NXT North American Championship last year at NXT Deadline but is yet to capture a title on the main roster. Only time will tell if Lee can defeat Carltio tomorrow night on RAW.
