WWE Raw comes to the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City tonight for the final stop before Survivor Series: WarGames. With the Premium Live Event set for Saturday, the focus shifts to the final preparations for the two WarGames matches.
The company has confirmed that Roman Reigns will open the show. Reigns, who recently returned to television alongside Brock Lesnar, has joined forces with Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso. This superteam is set to battle Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, Drew McIntyre, and Lesnar.
A stipulation match will also take place tonight to determine the WarGames advantage for the men’s match. WWE has not yet announced which members from each team will compete in this high-stakes encounter. Having the numbers advantage is often a deciding factor in the cage structure, making this bout critical for both sides.
In the women’s division, the WarGames teams have been finalized. AJ Lee and Becky Lynch have been added to the mix following their renewed rivalry on SmackDown. Lee joins forces with Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss. They will face the team of Lynch, Asuka, Kairi Sane, Nia Jax, and Lash Legend. Lynch is expected to address the WWE fans tonight regarding her recent loss of the Women’s Intercontinental Championship to Maxxine Dupri and her upcoming cage battle.
“The Last Time Is Now” tournament continues with two quarterfinal matchups. Gunther looks to bounce back from his World Heavyweight Championship loss at SummerSlam as he takes on Carmelo Hayes. In the other bracket, Solo Sikoa battles Penta. Dominik Mysterio is also scheduled to speak ahead of his Intercontinental Championship match against John Cena at Survivor Series.
