Tonight’s Raw starts early from New Jersey.

WWE returns to the United States with the June 29 edition of Monday Night Raw in the aftermath of Night of Champions 2026, which concluded in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, crowning the 2026 King and Queen of the Ring and setting the stage for SummerSlam.

The show will air live from the Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and will feature the aftermath of the PLE. Notably, the show will start early at 6 PM ET / 3 PM PT, as WWE will hold a double taping at the venue. The promotion will pre-tape the July 3 edition of SmackDown in New Jersey.

A singles match, along with World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns’ appearance, has been confirmed for the fallout show. Let us now take a look at the top four storylines that might unravel on this Monday’s WWE Raw in Atlantic City.

4. Night of Champions fallout

As noted, the June 29 edition will feature the aftermath of Night of Champions, where Oba Femi defeated Jey Uso to win the King of the Ring tournament. He now has to choose a World Champion to face at SummerSlam, and fans are waiting to see who Femi chooses for the PLE.

On the other hand, Iyo Sky defeated Liv Morgan to win the 2026 Queen of the Ring tournament. Iyo picked Liv for SummerSlam, confirming the showdown with the Women’s World title on the line.

3. Lyra Valkyria turns on Bayley

Last week’s show saw Lyra Valkyria turn on Bayley after another major loss; this time, the Women’s Tag Team titles were up for grabs. Lyra’s turn caught fans off guard as many were expecting Bayley to turn, due to the multiple teases.

That said, this marks the first time Lyra has turned heel, and fans are waiting to see what she brings after the turn. On the other hand, it will also be intriguing to see how Bayley responds.

2. What’s next for Seth Rollins?

Night of Champions also saw Seth Rollins defeat Bron Breakker in a gruelling match to finish the Vision storyline. Although many fan argued for Bron winning the final match, they are also waiting to see what lies ahead for Rollins, especially with SummerSlam on the horizon.

One thing is clear: fans were already tuned out of the feud, especially after their second match in the main event of Raw, where Paul Heyman was taken out accidentally by Breakker. WWE decided to continue the feud, but this feels like a good time to explore new things for both stars.

1. The Bloodline drama ft. Jey Uso & Solo Sikoa

‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns, after being absent from last week’s show in the O2 Arena in London, returns to programming this week. Notably, this appearance came after Jey Uso failed to win the King of the Ring tournament in order to challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed title, something which Reigns ordered him to do.

On the other hand, Solo Sikoa, who has been dealing with Jacob Fatu and Reigns’ mind games, is now all alone as his MFTs (Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa) have decided to part ways. With Reigns’ appearance, these things are likely going to be addressed as the drama heats up. Femi picking Reigns for SummerSlam is also a major angle that will likely be explored tonight.

When and where will WWE Raw take place this week?

The upcoming June 29, 2026, edition of Raw will air live from the Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Will the show have an early start time?

Yes, the show will have a special start time of 6 PM ET/ 03 PM PT, as WWE will hold a double taping at the venue. The promotion will pre-tape the July 3 edition of SmackDown in New Jersey.

When and where will SummerSlam 2026 take place?

The 39th edition will air as a two-night spectacle on Saturday, August 1, and Sunday, August 2, 2026, at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
