WWE Raw Predictions (6/8/26) – Stephanie Vaquer Will Replace Liv Morgan

WWE Raw Predictions are here for June 8, 2026. WWE is coming fresh off a historic Clash in Italy PLE, where Roman Reigns neutered Jacob Fatu, Sol Ruca dethroned Becky Lynch, Brock Lesnar toppled Oba Femi, Rhea Ripley buried Jade Cargill, and Cody Rhodes bamboozled Gunther.

They are now on the road to SummerSlam in August. Before they get there, WWE has booked the annual King of the Ring and Queen of the Ring Tournaments that will determine who contends for the world titles at SummerSlam.

It is baffling that these round 1 matches are not singles matches. Still, Oba Femi, Iyo Sky, Dirty Dominik Mysterio, and Raquel Rodriguez have already advanced in their respective fatal four ways to the semifinals of the tournament.

This week on WWE Raw at the Accor Arena in Paris, France, two matches in these tournaments have been scheduled: Seth Rollins vs. Ricky Saints vs. Je’Von Evans vs. Talla Tonga in the KOTR Tournament and Liv Morgan vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Chelsea Green vs. Becky Lynch in the QOTR Tournament.

WWE Raw Predictions (6/8/26):

Seth Rollins vs. Ricky Saints vs. Je’Von Evans vs. Talla Tonga [King of the Ring Tournament – Semifinals

Seth Rollins is the clear favorite here because he is surrounded by three mid-carders, who have no business in the world title scene at this stage of his career. Ricky Saints is still targeting Trick Williams’ U.S. Title, Je’Von Evans is still targeting Penta’s IC Title, and Talla Tonga is still targeting the tag titles with The MFTs.

If anyone would be a top contender to battle Roman Reigns for the World Title in a SummerSlam main event, it would be his Shield brethren, who relinquished that title due to injury and deserve a rematch.

Prediction: Seth Rollins

Liv Morgan vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Chelsea Green vs. Becky Lynch Queen of the Ring Tournament – Semifinals

Liv Morgan should not be in this tournament since she is the World Champion. WWE really put themselves in a corner here because she also should not lose in the first round, as that would severely hurt her credibility as the champ.

Due to their lack of momentum, Alexa Bliss and Chelsea Green have no business winning this match. Green has been a sidepiece for Tiffany Stratton in the U.S. Title picture, and Alexa Bliss has been a sidepiece for Charlotte Flair, constantly eating pin-falls in nonsensical tag matches.

To protect Liv, Stephanie Vaquer will have to screw her out of this match to set up her title rematch for Night of Champions, which would lead to Becky Lynch winning here.

Lynch is an established multi-time world champion who would fit like a glove in a SummerSlam main event against Rhea Ripley for the world title and would need to regain momentum after losing the IC Title to Sol Ruca at Clash in Italy. Or, Vaquer can replace Liv in this match on WWE Raw and win the QOTR Tournament to battle Liv for the title at SummerSlam.

Prediction: Stephanie Vaquer
