Spoiler: Closing Segment for February 23 WWE RAW Revealed

WWE already stacked the February 23, 2026 episode of Monday Night Raw — but a new update reveals what’s expected to send the show off the air.

According to an early internal rundown via Cory Hays of BodySlam.net, AJ Styles’ tribute segment is currently listed to close tonight’s episode of Raw on Netflix from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. That placement is significant.

With CM Punk appearing, Brock Lesnar returning, Liv Morgan making her WrestleMania 42 decision, and multiple Elimination Chamber qualifying matches on tap, many assumed the World Heavyweight Champion or a major angle would headline the final segment.

Instead, WWE appears set to end the night honoring Styles in front of his Georgia hometown crowd. The tribute comes after Styles officially retired at the 2026 Royal Rumble, closing the book on a career that spanned more than two decades across multiple promotions. Ending Raw with the segment suggests WWE is planning a major emotional moment rather than a cliffhanger storyline beat.

Confirmed for tonight’s Raw on Netflix:

• CM Punk appearance
• AJ Styles tribute segment (currently listed as the closing segment)
• Brock Lesnar return
• Liv Morgan to choose her WrestleMania 42 opponent
• Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match: Raquel Rodriguez vs. IYO SKY vs. Kairi Sane
• Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match: Bronson Reed vs. Jey Uso vs. Original El Grande Americano
• Maxxine Dupri vs. Nattie

Raw airs live at 8 PM ET on Netflix from Atlanta.  Ringside News will be providing live play-by-play coverage of this week’s show over in our WWE Monday Night RAW coverage hub. 

Do you think closing the show with AJ Styles’ tribute is the right call, or should WWE have ended the go-home episode with a major Elimination Chamber angle? Let us know your thoughts below.
