Tonight’s Raw will serve as the go-home show for SNME.
Tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw is set to air live from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. Multiple stars, including Seth Rollins (for some reason), CM Punk, Rhea Ripley, Jey Uso, Becky Lynch, and LA Knight, are being advertised for the SNME go-home show.
The promotion has also announced multiple matches and segments for the show. CM Punk and Jey Uso are set to face off tonight, while Pent and Rusev will battle in a number one contenders match. Additionally, Nikki Bella will take on Roxanne Perez, while Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss are set for a title defense.
Ahead of this week’s show in Anaheim, California, let us take a look at the top four storylines that will be in play on this week’s WWE Raw.
4. WWE Women’s Tag Team titles

WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss are set to defend the titles against the team of Bayley and Lyra Valkyria. Bayley challenged the Champions via a video promo on X, while the Champion accepted the challenge on last week’s SmackDown.
The Women’s Tag Team titles, unfortunately, like other mid-card titles, especially on SmackDown, have been poorly booked and featured, despite Flair and Bliss being so over with the fans.
Although the title match will see the four gifted wrestlers showcase their skills, it will likely be used to further the Bayley – Lyra storyline, rather than an actual attempt to feature the titles more in regular programming.

3. Number one contenders match
Penta and Rusev have both tried, and failed, to pin Dominik Mysterio and capture the Intercontinental Title, partly due to interfering in each other’s matches. As a result, GM Adam Pearce has announced that Penta and Rusev will now face each other in a Number One Contender’s Match, with the winner earning a rematch against Mysterio.
With at least one spot left on the upcoming November 1 edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event, the winner of this match tonight is likely going to battle Mysterio for the title.
2. Paul Heyman needs to tame two giants

After being removed from the World Heavyweight Championship #1 Contenders Battle Royal, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed were not too happy with ‘The Oracle’ Paul Heyman. The Oracle, however, told them a story about Brock Lesnar, CM Punk, and Roman Reigns, explaining how they all achieved success by learning to listen to him, advising the two to do the same.
With Seth Rollins gone, Heyman needs to take control of the faction and not let Reed and Breakker loose, wreaking havoc, because there might be consequences, like last week.
1. SNME title clash
Ahead of their vacant World Heavyweight title clash at SNME, CM Punk and Jey Uso will go face-to-face on the go-home show tonight. The two stars ahead of the clash will likely engage in a promo battle, building up hype for the match.
Additionally, fans can also expect more segments building excitement towards the event. With only three matches announced for the show, WWE might announce new matches for this Saturday.
