WWE Raw is live tonight from the American Airlines Arena in Dallas, Texas! Tonight will see the return of Logan Paul to the red brand, The NXT Women’s Championship defended, and a lot more. Let’s take a look at everything announced for tonight’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw:
WWE Raw card: October 23, 2023
Alpha Academy vs. New Day
WWE’s official preview:
After a friendly confrontation last week, The New Day and Alpha Academy are set to square off.
The New Day and Alpha Academy are both in a state of flux with New Day losing to The Viking Raiders, and Alpha Academy coming up short against Gunther and Imperium in recent weeks.
Despite both being renowned tag teams, this will be the first-ever meeting between the tandems.
Which team will come out on top?
Judgment Day revel in regaining the Tag Team Championship
WWE’s official preview:
After Finn Bálor and Damian Priest won the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship from Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso last week, The Judgment Day will kick off Monday Night Raw as they celebrate bringing the titles back into the fold.
Now that the dark faction is once again in possession of most of the gold in WWE, how will their renewed reign of dominance change the landscape of the red brand?
Logan Paul returns to Monday Night Raw
WWE’s official preview:
Social media will be once again set ablaze when Logan Paul makes his return to Monday Night Raw with plenty on his mind.
The WWE Universe hasn’t seen The Maverick since his SummerSlam victory over Ricochet in a showstopping classic, but just a few days ago, Paul made headlines by challenging Rey Mysterio to a match for the United States Title.
What will happen when the iconic influencer grabs a mic in the middle of the ring?
Sami Zayn vs. Drew McIntyre
WWE’s official preview:
This is a whole different Drew McIntyre.
With the arrival of Jey Uso to Raw, McIntyre has been irate and does not wish to board the forgiveness train, seemingly preferring instead to forge his own path with bitterness and anger.
McIntyre and Sami Zayn confronted each other last week, with The Scottish Warrior having some harsh words for Zayn after Zayn hugged it out with Uso.
This Monday, the two will square off inside the ring, as McIntyre’s attention gets shifted to the former Bloodline member. The Scottish Warrior is poised to face off with World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins at WWE Crown Jewel, so Zayn will prove a good test for the former WWE Champion.
Zayn is also in a state of flux, as his tag team partner Kevin Owens was revealed to be the person that SmackDown acquired in the Uso trade to Raw.
Zayn has never beaten McIntyre, with The Scottish Warrior bringing a 4-0-1 record against Zayn.
Can Zayn finally record a win over McIntyre, or will The Scottish Warrior overwhelm his opponent before his WWE Crown Jewel match against The Visionary?
Becky Lynch (c) vs. Indi Hartwell for the NXT Women’s Championship
WWE’s official preview:
NXT Women’s Champion Becky Lynch is set to defend her title against a Superstar who never lost it! Don’t miss when The Man battles Indi Hartwell in a highly anticipated showdown for the gold.
Damian Priest vs. Jey Uso
WWE’s official preview:
After Finn Bálor and Damian Priest defeated Cody Rhodes and “Main Event” Jey Uso in controversial fashion to win the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship, an irate Jey will be looking for retribution in a showdown against Señor Money in the Bank.
Could Jimmy once again show up on the red brand? Will Jey’s thirst for payback against Jimmy be a benefit or a distraction against Priest? Or will Priest earn another impressive win after the title victory last week?
