Triple H says there’s a new landscape in WWE starting tonight on Monday Night Raw. On November 1st, WWE held its Saturday Night’s Main Event, which featured several title matches. By the end of the night, two new world champions were crowned.
The changes took place at the Delta Center in Utah. Jade Cargill ran through former WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton to capture the title. In the main event, CM Punk defeated Jey Uso to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. This win was a moment of redemption for Punk, who had his last reign snatched away at SummerSlam earlier this year. In a social media post on November 3rd, Triple H highlighted these changes, noting the new landscape begins tonight.
A New Champion’s Era Begins
Tonight’s Raw, emanating from the Rio Rancho Event Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, will feature the first appearance of the new World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk. This marks Punk’s first time on WWE’s flagship show with the World Title in over a decade. Now that he has the championship, Punk has a massive target on his back from competitors like Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and LA Knight, and fans will hear what he has to say.

The Judgment Day will look to reclaim gold as Finn Balor and JD McDonagh get their rematch for the World Tag Team Championship. They will challenge the new champions, AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. Styles and Lee stunned The Judgment Day two weeks ago to capture the belts, and this was only the second title defense for Balor and McDonagh.
Two major women’s tag team matches are scheduled for the show. Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer will team with WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella to take on Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. This match was set up after Perez defeated Bella last week, leading to a post-match attack from Perez and Rodriguez until Vaquer made the save.
In the other match, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria will face Asuka and Kairi Sane. The Kabuki Warriors ambushed Bayley and Valkyria last week after their unsuccessful attempt to win the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. The night will also feature fallout from the Men’s Intercontinental Championship match at Saturday Night’s Main Event, where Dominik Mysterio retained against Rusev and Penta.
Tonight, Penta will battle El Grande Americano in a singles match. Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley are also being advertised for the episode.
A lot can happen on a Saturday night in @WWE.
Four high-stakes matches…
