That seems like a smart move, since an analogue of Everybody Loves Raymond and HBO would go together like mayonnaise and cough medicine. Since the deal was just finalized, there's no word on exactly what the new show will be, and even Royce says he and Romano haven't come up with any ideas yet. Royce's most recent gig was as an executive producer on comedian Louis CK's failed HBO sitcom Lucky Louie.
