The 01/27 episode of the Red brand features some exciting matches
The go-home show of Monday Night Raw for the first PLE of 2025 will be aired live from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. The episode will feature matches and segments leading up to the Royal Rumble PLE.
The promotion will likely add one or two more matches to the Rumble PLE which will emanate from the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Multi stars are set for an appearance on tonight’s show of Raw and we will likely witness more stars announcing their entry into the 2025 Rumble match.
Ahead of the 01/27 episode let us take a look at the top five surprises you should watch out for this week’s show of the Red brand.
5. Seth Rollins interferes
As announced by General Manager Adam Pearce, Sami Zayn and Drew McIntyre will lock horns on tonight’s episode. McIntyre suffered a defeat last week against Seth Rollins which irked him as he started battering Rollins after the match. Zayn darted in to aid Rollins but ended up accidentally taking out Rollins.
While Rollins might be upset about last week’s attack from Zayn, his animosity towards McIntyre will likely prevail and Zayn will likely interfere in the clash tonight to make sure Drew doesn’t win.

4. WWE 2K25 cover & info revealed
On the historic debut episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix, the promotion teased the highly anticipated WWE 2K25 game during a backstage segment involving Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman. During the segment, Heyman asked when he should hold an acknowledgment ceremony for The OTC, and Reigns replied with “January 27”.
After the segment, the two entered a locker room, and the WWE 2K25 logo appeared on the door, hinting that updates about the highly anticipated game would be revealed on the January 27 episode of Monday Night Raw. The OTC will likely be the cover star of the game as he was featured on the stream page, which was shortly removed and replaced with the standard 2K25 logo.

3. Ludwig Kaiser attacks Bron Breakker
WWE Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker defended the title against Sheamus in the January 25 edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event in San Antonio. Despite tough opposition from the Celtic Warrior, Breakker was able to pin the legend and defend his title.
However, Ludwig Kaiser not getting an opportunity might irk him even though he lost the number one contender match against Sheamus. Ludwig will likely confront or ambush Breakker in order to provoke the champion into a title clash.
2. Logan Paul calls out Gunther
Former United States Champion Logan Paul is set to make his return on tonight’s show in Atlanta. This will be his first in-ring appearance since SummerSlam 2024 PLE. During his appearance on the Raw Netflix kick-off event, Paul made his intentions clear that he wanted to capture the Heavyweight title.
The Maverick in his return tonight will likely call out Gunther and ask for a title shot, or he might announce his entry into the 2025 Rumble match which would culminate in him facing Gunther for the World Heavyweight title at WrestleMania 41.
1. CM Punk interrupts the Tribal acknowledgment ceremony
‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns has restored order after defeating Solo Sikoa in the tribal combat match and has reclaimed the Ula Fala. Paul Heyman has been advised by the OTC to hold the tribal acknowledgment ceremony on the 01/27 episode of Monday Night Raw.
“The Second City Saint” CM Punk will likely interrupt the acknowledgment ceremony to confront Reigns. Punk might cut a promo ahead of the Rumble PLE and reveal what the favor was that Paul Heyman owes him. The Second City Saint will probably refuse to acknowledge the OTC setting up an intense clash in the Rumble match.
Who do you think will emerge victorious in the clash between Sami Zayn and Drew McIntyre? Which WWE star would make their entry official for the Rumble match on tonight’s episode? Share your thoughts and opinions in the comments section.
