WWE RAW Preview (February 9, 2026): Match card, start time & where to watch

Elimination Chamber Qualifying matches set for WWE RAW

The road to WrestleMania 42 begins to take real shape this Monday as WWE Raw launches the Elimination Chamber qualifying process.

Live from Rocket Arena in Cleveland, Ohio, the February 9 episode will start determining which six superstars earn the right to step inside the Chamber in Chicago with a WrestleMania main event at stake.

Championship gold is also on the line, with The Usos defending the World Tag Team Titles, while Maxxine Dupri faces Nattie in singles action. With CM Punk, Rhea Ripley, and Jey Uso advertised, Raw promises an eventful night.

Announced for WWE Raw (February 9, 2026)

• The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) (c) vs Alpha Academy (Otis & Akira Tozawa) – WWE World Tag Team titles match
• Maxxine Dupri vs Nattie
• Elimination Chamber Qualifying matches

The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) (c) vs Alpha Academy (Otis & Akira Tozawa) – WWE World Tag Team titles match

The WWE World Tag Team Championships will be on the line as The Usos defend their titles against the top contenders from Alpha Academy. Following Jimmy Uso‘s return this week, The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) are set to defend against the number one contenders.

Tozawa recently reflected on a decade in WWE without fully realizing his potential, while Otis has publicly stated his desire for Alpha Academy to be taken seriously.

That opportunity arrives after earning this title shot, but with Jimmy’s recent absence and Jey Uso seemingly distracted, a long-awaited upset may finally be within reach.

Maxxine Dupri vs Nattie

Maxxine Dupri heads into Raw with revenge firmly on her mind as she squares off against her former mentor, Natalya. Nattie betrayed Dupri during her Women’s Intercontinental Championship rematch against Becky Lynch two weeks ago, shattering their partnership.

Now, the veteran, nearly 18 years into her WWE career is done elevating others and is focused on tearing down her latest protege. Dupri, however, has promised payback, vowing to break Nattie’s ankle and end the lesson for good.

Elimination Chamber Qualifying matches

Elimination Chamber qualifying matches begin this week, with WrestleMania 42 implications hanging over every result. With Roman Reigns choosing to challenge CM Punk, the Chamber winner is likely earning a shot at Undisputed WWE Champion Drew McIntyre.

Finn Balor has vowed to reclaim world title contention, and the Chamber may be his clearest path. All eyes remain on Cody Rhodes, while Bron Breakker and The Vision are expected to chase spots. On the women’s side, Chamber entry could lead to a title match likely against Jade Cargill or Stephanie Vaquer with alliances under strain.
