Tonight, WWE’s flagship program Monday Night RAW storms into the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio, for a pivotal, high-stakes episode that will define the road to Night of Champions. With just days left before WWE’s return to Saudi Arabia, the red brand is bracing for an unforgettable night of revelations, rivalries, and relentless competition.
Returning to the helm is RAW General Manager Adam Pearce, just in time to oversee a card loaded with tournament-deciding matches and championship drama. In the main event spotlight, two former allies turned rivals—“The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes and “Main Event” Jey Uso—will battle for the final spot in the King of the Ring finals. With “The Viper” Randy Orton already securing his place on SmackDown, could we be heading for a high-drama Legacy showdown between mentor and protégé? Or will Jey Uso finally claim a singles spotlight that’s long eluded him?
On the women’s side, Asuka has already booked her place in the Queen of the Ring finals with a hard-fought win over Alexa Bliss. Tonight, it’s powerhouse versus prodigy as former Women’s Tag Team Champion Jade Cargill faces off against The Judgment Day’s rising star, “The Prodigy” Roxanne Perez, in a must-win semifinal clash. With both women hungry to etch their names in history, only one can join Asuka in the desert this Saturday.
Meanwhile, the gold is up for grabs as Becky Lynch defends the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against a focused and fired-up Bayley, who’s looking to bounce back into title contention and reclaim her spot atop the division.
And in a moment steeped in legacy and finality, WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg sits down for an exclusive interview ahead of his highly anticipated WWE World Heavyweight Championship retirement match against “The Ring General” Gunther. What will the icon have to say 12 days before he steps into the ring one last time?
As Night of Champions looms large, tonight’s RAW promises to shape destinies, deliver answers, and raise new questions. Who will punch their tickets to the King and Queen of the Ring finals? Will a generational collision between Orton and Rhodes become reality? And can the red brand seize momentum heading into WWE’s global spectacle?
The countdown to Night of Champions begins now.
