WWE looking to nail down a "former WWE Champion" for WWE Day 1 (Patreon)

WWE is looking to add to their Day 1 edition of Raw. 

Sources within WWE, while speaking vaguely, claimed that the company is "on the one yard line" in landing a former WWE Champion to appear on the show, and they feel confident they can get the deal done. 

We haven't been given a specific name, but were told it was someone not currently on their roster. 

It's worth noting that "former WWE Champion" was the terms used by those sources. We asked if the name was one that was active or a retired talent, but weren't given that info. We'll continue to work to provide some more details as we get them.
