Liv Morgan's return, identity of mystery man & other storylines to watch on WWE RAW after Survivor Series 2025

Tonight’s Raw will feature a title clash.

Tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw is set to emanate live from the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. Multiple big names, including CM Punk, Rhea Ripley, Penta, Becky Lynch, and LA Knight, among others, are being advertised for the show.

The show will feature the aftermath of the final PLE of 2025, Survivor Series, which concluded last Saturday in San Diego. The PLE featured multiple big moments that are going to shape the storylines on the Red brand.

The promotion has announced two semi-final matches in the tournament to decide John Cena’s final opponent, along with a World Tag Team titles clash. Ahead of this week’s show in Glendale, let us take a look at the top four storylines that will be in play on this week’s WWE Raw.

4. Liv Morgan’s return

During the final PLE last Saturday, Liv Morgan made her surprising return to help Dominik Mysterio defeat John Cena and capture the Intercontinental title once again. Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez, Finn Balor, and JD McDonagh were all either taken out or removed from the ring before Liv’s return.

Fans are now eagerly waiting for what’s next for the Judgment Day faction since Liv’s return. Balor has already taken charge, and Roxanne has firmly settled in; it will be interesting to see how she reacts to it all and what her next move is following the return.

3. World Tag Team titles

World Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Dragon Lee are set to defend the titles against the New Day (Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston). This will be their second title defense in their title reign, which is currently at 42 days. The second title defense is already more than the last title holders, Finn Balor and JD McDonagh.

WWE has decided to put some focus and effort on the World Tag Titles since the new Champions have kicked off their reign. Raw has a decent tag team division, and unlike SmackDown, the division was being featured in the early parts of 2025, but was sidelined in between as WWE has now put some effort and is booking matches on weekly shows.

2. What’s next for Stephanie Vaquer?

Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer, despite some early setbacks, managed to overcome and pin WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella to retain the title at the PLE last weekend. Reports suggest Vaquer competing in a high-profile bout against either Becky Lynch or Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 42.

While the road to Mania is quite far currently, WWE might decide to continue the feud between Vaquer or Bella or pit the Champion against established names like Liv Morgan, Iyo Sky, or rising stars like Lyra Valkyria or Roxanne Perez, among others. WWE has teased a feud between Vaquer and Perez. We will now have to wait for tonight’s show to see what the future holds for La Primera.

1. WarGames aftermath

The final PLE of 2025 featured two WarGames matches in both the men’s and women’s divisions. In the women’s WarGames match, AJ Lee submitted Becky Lynch to secure the win for the babyfaces, and WWE might use this angle to further the feud between Lee and Lynch, culminating in a showdown between the two.

On the other hand, the Vision team, led by Paul Heyman, defeated the babyface teams, which featured names like Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and The Usos. During the final moments, a masked man entered, attacking Punk, which helped Breakker, who pinned Punk to secure the win. With reports of a planned match between Punk and Breakker, the finish has helped WWE build the story for WrestleMania.
