WWE may be keeping things quiet on television, but Royce Keys just gave fans a clear signal about his status for tonight’s WWE RAW.

Ahead of the February 16, 2026 episode of WWE Raw, Keys took to Instagram to show he’s in Memphis, Tennessee. The post featured signage promoting WWE Memphis 2/16/26 at the FedExForum, confirming he’s in the building for the Netflix broadcast.

The image, shared via his Instagram story, shows arena signage reading “WWE Memphis 2/16/26 FedExForum,” leaving little doubt that Keys is backstage ahead of tonight’s show.

This update comes just days after Keys worked a dark match before SmackDown, where he faced Nathan Frazer prior to the televised portion of the broadcast. That match followed his debut in the 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble in Riyadh, where he entered at No. 14, eliminated Damian Priest, and was later taken out by Bronson Reed.

Since that Rumble appearance, fans have been waiting to see how WWE plans to integrate him into weekly programming. Whether Keys appears in another dark match, a backstage segment, or even a surprise in-ring moment remains to be seen. But one thing is clear: he’s not sitting at home.

 Ringside News will be providing live play-by-play coverage of this week’s show over in our WWE Monday Night RAW coverage hub.
