The 11/18 episode of WWE Raw is generating huge anticipation among fans

The 11/18 episode of WWE Raw packs huge anticipation and surprises as the Stamford-based promotion is gearing up for the last PLE of 2024. This week’s episode of the Red brand features two tag-team matches along with an Intercontinental title match.

The WWE Survivor Series: WarGames is the last PLE of 2025 and is scheduled to take place on November 30 at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada. Ahead of the PLE the storylines and segments are reaching a boiling point. Here we take a look at the top five storylines to watch out for on this week’s  Monday Night Raw.

5. Bron Breaker vs Sheamus

The Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker is scheduled to defend his title against WWE veteran Sheamus on this week’s episode. This will be Breakker’s first title defense in his second title reign which started after he defeated Jey Uso last month.

Sheamus on the other hand, has multiple accolades to his name in the Stamford-based promotion. These accolades include multiple World Championships, Tag Team Championships, and United States Championships. However, the veteran has never won the IC title which will be his goal this week.

4. Women’s WarGames match

Ahead of the Survivor Series, the promotion has already announced a WarGames match between the OG Bloodline and the rogue Bloodline. There are signs that the promotion will set up a WarGames match for the upcoming PLE in the women’s division.

WarGames is a unique steel cage match in professional wrestling, typically featuring two teams of four or more competitors. The match takes place inside a cage that surrounds two rings positioned side by side.

3. Bronson Reed – Seth Rollins feud continues

The feud between Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins and ‘Big’ Bronson Reed is far from over, as even after their brutal match at Crown Jewel 2024 the bad blood is still prevalent.

The two stars will lock horns on this week’s episode, in a match set up by General Manager Adam Pearce after Rollins and Reed engaged in a brawl on last week’s episode.

Rollins was approached by both factions to join their side in the WarGames match in last week’s episode. Reed has seemingly joined the rogue faction as he attacked Reigns and company on the 11/15 episode of SmackDown.

2. Rift in the Judgment Day

The team of Dominik Mysterio and Carlito from the Judgement Day faction is set to face off against the War Raiders (Erick and Ivar). The match idea was floated by one of the WWE World Tag Team Champions Finn Balor.

Balor wanted Dirty Dom and Carlito to take care of the War Raiders as they are the #1 contenders for the tag titles. However, during the segment, the conversation between Balor and Dirty Dom turned into an argument but the situation was quickly diffused by Carlito, Liv Morgan, and Raquel Rodriguez.

The argument got a bit personal between the two stars which isn’t the first time. The faction is struggling with communication and a clash of egos if Dominik and Carlito fail to win on this week’s episode it would only make matters worse.

1. Finding fifth member for the men’s WarGames match

As Survivor Series 2024 approaches, matches, and segments are being announced for the PLE. One of these matches is between the OG Bloodline and the rogue Bloodline. However, it has been recently announced that the match would be a five-on-five clash instead of four vs four as earlier announced.

Both factions tried to recruit members for the WarGames match but failed during last week’s episode of the Red brand. However, Bronson Reed has now seemingly joined Solo Sikoa‘s side in the WarGames match as he joined the rogue faction and attacked Reigns and company during 11/15 SmackDown.

This might set the stage for Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins to join the OG faction despite his history and long hatred for the OTC Roman Reigns. Rollins was approached by both factions last week but he turned down both the offers.

However, the addition of his fierce rival Bronson Reed might convince him to join forces with Roman Reigns and company at the Survivor Series PLE.
