WWE announces MSG return date on a Monday, but not a Raw taping?

WWE is scheduled to return to Madison Square Garden in New York City on Monday, December 26, the night after Christmas.

However, the event is advertised as a “WWE Holiday Tour” show, not a Raw TV taping.

During the expiring era of no brand split, WWE typically ran two shows on the same day during the Holiday Tour, including TV taping days.

When the brand split kicks in this coming week, WWE will likely separate the house show tours by brand. It points to the MSG show on Dec. 26 potentially being a Smackdown brand show opposite a Raw TV taping in another city.
