The October 20 episode of Monday Night RAW from Sacramento’s Golden 1 Center will feature big matches and major storyline developments, but fans are already looking toward the closing segment.
According to Bodyslam.net’s Cory Hays, the end of RAW will be dedicated to the company’s biggest prize. “The fate of the World Heavyweight Championship,” Hays revealed when asked by a fan on Twitter what the main event would be.
That revelation has instantly shifted the tone for Monday night. With Seth Rollins written off television due to a shoulder injury that requires surgery, the World Heavyweight Championship picture is in limbo. Adam Pearce will address Rollins’ status and the championship situation in the main event, making it the most crucial moment of the night.
The rest of RAW still promises plenty of action. Becky Lynch will defend the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Maxxine Dupri after Dupri’s upset win earlier this month. Dominik Mysterio will again risk his Intercontinental Title against Rusev, while Finn Balor and JD McDonagh put the WWE Tag Team Titles on the line against AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman are also scheduled to explain their brutal attack on Rollins.
But it’s clear that the real story is how RAW will end. With the World Heavyweight Championship hanging in the balance, fans are preparing for one of the most important announcements in recent memory.
The October 20 RAW will air live on Netflix starting at 8 PM ET, and the final segment could set the course for Saturday Night’s Main Event and beyond. Ringside News will be providing live play-by-play coverage of this week’s show over in our WWE Monday Night RAW coverage hub.
