For weeks now it has been reported that Raw Executive Director Paul Heyman is “very high” on former WWE Cruiserweight Champion Buddy Murphy.
After being drafted to Raw, Murphy defeated Cedric Alexander in singles action. However, he missed last week’s show as he was part of WWE’s Australia tour.
Murphy’s push on Raw will seemingly continue tonight as WWE has taken to Twitter to confirm that Buddy Murphy will be taking on R-Truth on tonight’s show.

That is not all, WWE has also announced that following their great encounter last week, Ricochet will be going one-on-one with Drew McIntyre ahead of Crown Jewel later this week.
Of course, WrestleTalk.com will have live coverage of tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw on the USA Network.
