Sports. Honestly. Since 2011

CM Punk is set to lead off WWE Raw tonight as the new champion.

Preview: WWE Raw (10/27/25) – CM Punk & Jey Uso SNME Face-off

WWE Raw will focus on CM Punk and Jey Uso building towards their contest for the vacant World Heavyweight Championship.

It’ll be the last chance before they meet at Saturday Night’s Main Event for either man to gain the upper hand.

WWE Raw streams live on Netflix at 8 PM ET from the Honda Center, Anaheim, CA.

Here’s our full preview for WWE Raw.

Match Card: WWE Raw (10/27/25)

  • Nikki Bella vs. Roxanne Perez
  • Women’s Tag Team Championship: Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley & Lyra Valkyria
  • Intercontinental Championship No.1 Contender: Rusev vs. Penta
  • CM Punk & Jey Uso Faceoff

WWE Raw New Champs And Retribution

New tag champs AJ Styles and Dragon Lee might try and prove to be fighting champions.

Whilst Dominik Mysterio seems set to defend two titles in a triple threat at some point. Penta faces Rusev in a number one contender match to “Dirty” Dom’s IC title. But I can’t see any outcome that doesn’t lead to a triple threat.

Could Dragon Lee have a gold lust? Lee lost to Mysterio in AAA over the weekend and got a hammer/ boot to the face. WWE Raw retribution might be in the offing.

 

Women Takeover Raw


Nikki Bella’s return to WWE needs to be studied. After seemingly retiring in 2018, she was set for nothing more than sporadic Royal Rumble appearances. But after breaking the internet at the Raw on Netflix premiere, WWE brought her back. She’s never looked better.

The 41-year-old has had satisfying matches with Asuka, Becky Lynch and Chelsea Green. Backstage, she’s been more natural as a warm elder figure offering support to younger talent.

Stephanie Vaquer has been the recipient of her warmest of love. Roxanne Perez has little time for Bella and even less for Vaquer. She can’t wait to get ahead and wants the gold Vaquer has won. Along with Raquel Rodriguez, Perez looked to bully Vaquer. But Bella has evened the odds. Bella and Perez meet this week. Do not sleep on this match, it could really deliver.

The Women’s Tag Team Champions will appear on WWE Raw for the first time.

Bayley and Lyra Valkyria have won one match as a duo. This was all Bayley needed to feel she’d earned the right to challenge Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss.

Flair was delighted to accept the challenge.

Face-off or Bron Beatdown

Jey Uso won last week’s battle royal and now faces the OG No.1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

The championship was vacated after Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed turned on Seth Rollins. The two Brons weren’t allowed in the battle royal as punishment for their behaviour.

So they will definitely have something to say about that. It seems impossible Saturday’s championship bout won’t be spoiled by Bron and Bron. This WWE Raw face-off might very well be improved by their presence.
