Carrillo made his return to WWE this week, helping out Rey Mysterio stave off a vicious attack from WWE United States Champion Andrade — the same type of attack that left him on the shelf for a month. Backstage after the January 20 edition of Raw, Carrillo challenged Andrade to a match for the United States title at the Royal Rumble. The two wrestlers have faced off multiple times in the past with Carrillo coming out on top in their last match at the TLC Kickoff show last December.
Below is the updated card for the show.
