WWE has a packed lineup for the November 2, 2026 episode of Monday Night RAW, and now we have an idea of how the show will kick off. With Crown Jewel just days away, World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns is expected to open tonight’s broadcast from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
According to Viper Reports, the early rundown for tonight’s RAW has Reigns scheduled to open the show. However, this is the current plan, and things could still change before RAW goes live.
Reigns is scheduled to address Undisputed WWE Champion Sami Zayn ahead of their Champion vs. Champion match at Crown Jewel on November 7. With tensions already running high between the two, WWE appears to be putting their rivalry front and center.
Also on the show, Tiffany Stratton, IYO SKY, and Chelsea Green will team up against Liv Morgan, Roxanne Perez, and Raquel Rodriguez in a six-woman tag team match. John Cena is also returning to RAW, where he’s expected to reveal details about the upcoming John Cena Classic.
Here’s the announced lineup for WWE RAW on November 2:
- Roman Reigns appearance (expected opening segment, subject to change)
- John Cena returns
- Intercontinental Championship: Chad Gable (c) vs. Ethan Page
- The Vision vs. Penta, Je’Von Evans & Dragon Lee
- Solo Sikoa vs. Royce Keys
- Tiffany Stratton, IYO SKY & Chelsea Green vs. Liv Morgan, Roxanne Perez & Raquel Rodriguez
WWE RAW airs tonight at a special start time of 6 PM ET on Netflix. Ringside News will provide live play-by-play coverage and updates throughout the show in our WWE RAW results coverage hub.
