The WWE announced a schedule of RAW stars scheduled to make the trip down under, also including Seth Rollins, Enzo & Big Cass, tag team champions Gallows & Anderson, Braun Strowman, the New Day, Sheamus & Cesaro, Finn Balor, Rusev w/ Lana, women’s champion Bayley, Sasha Banks, Charlotte and more.

Tickets go on sale March 27, with a pre-sales available from Wednesday.
