WWE Raw is live tonight from TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts! Tonight, Finn Bálor and JD McDonagh are forced to defend their World Tag Team Championship against the War Raiders – and Judgment Day is banned from ringside. Let’s take a look at everything announced for tonight’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw:
WWE Monday Night Raw card: December 16, 2024
Kofi Kingston returns to his hometown of Boston
WWE’s official preview:
The New Day have set a new path after shockingly berating Big E and kicking him out of the group during their 10-Year Anniversary Celebration.
The emotional moment sent shockwaves through the WWE Universe, leaving Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods with very little support.
This Monday, Kingston will return to his hometown of Boston with the hopes of getting a much better reception than he and Woods received last week.
Will Kingston receive a warm welcome or be met with more hostility?
Seth “Freakin” Rollins will appear live
WWE’s official preview:
This Monday, Seth “Freakin” Rollins will be live on Raw, potentially on a collision course with CM Punk.
Rollins berated Punk last week and is focused on a match with his nemesis.
What will The Visionary say regarding The Best in the World this week?
Kayden Carter vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Zoey Stark (Women’s Intercontinental Title Tournament Match)
WWE’s official preview:
The Women’s Intercontinental Title Tournament continues this Monday as Raquel Rodriguez, Kayden Carter and Zoey Stark battle in a Triple Threat Match.
Who will progress to the semifinals?
CM Punk will appear live
WWE’s official preview:
CM Punk is aspiring to enter the championship picture, but he seemingly has unfinished business with Seth “Freakin” Rollins.
Rollins has frequently called out The Voice of the Voiceless, though Punk called Rollins a “second-stringer” while being interviewed by Jackie Redmond.
Bron Breakker (c) vs. Ludwig Kaiser for the Intercontinental Championship
WWE’s official preview:
Bron Breakker’s battles with Ludwig Kaiser are from over as the two will tangle next week for the Intercontinental Title.
Breakker walked out with the gold by prevailing in a Triple Threat Match featuring Kaiser and Sheamus at Survivor Series: WarGames.
Can Breakker once again retain his title?
Finn Bálor and JD McDonagh (c) vs. War Raiders for the World Tag Team Championship
WWE’s official preview:
Next week, The War Raiders will get the opportunity to again become tag team champions when they face Finn Bálor and JD McDonagh.
The last time the teams battled in a title match, the rest of The Judgment Day interfered to help Bálor and McDonagh win the bout and retain the championship.
Because of this, Raw General Manager Adam Pearce announced that the rest of The Judgment Day would be barred from ringside when these two teams again collide.
