The Uso will officially stand side-by-side after seemingly reforming last week.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Whilst AJ Lee will return to WWE Raw following her WWE SmackDown shock appearance. That means we will see the latest in the AJ Lee and CM Punk feud with Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch. Here\u2019s the full preview for WWE Raw from the Fiserv Forum.<\/div>\n<div>WWE Raw streams live on Netflix at 8pm.<\/div>\n<h3>WWE Raw (9\/8\/25) Match Card<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Lyra Valkyria vs. Raquel Rodriguez<\/li>\n<li>AJ Styles vs. El Grande Americano<\/li>\n<li>The Usos<\/li>\n<li>Women&#8217;s World Championship Contract Signing: IYO SKY &amp; Stephanie Vaquer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What Is Happening On WWE Raw<\/h3>\n<div>El Grande Americano saved the Parisian crowd from itself last week. There\u2019s no way the 23,000 fans inside the Paris La D\u00e9fense Arena would have been able to control their excitement had <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/08\/25\/two-major-titles-decided-in-wwe-raw-in-paris\/\" target=\"_self\">AJ Styles captured the WWE Intercontinental Championship<\/a>.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>But Americano <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=g6JhoXi2pHY\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">poured cold water on the French fans<\/a>. This week, he gets his reward. A one-on-one match with Styles. But will Mysterio be there to help out his fellow \u2018luchador\u2019 should he need it?<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Not much to say about Lyra Valkyria vs. Raquel Rodriguez. Valkyria asked for a match to help her build up some momentum after her SummerSlam loss cooled down what\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/05\/21\/flight-of-the-valkyria-how-lyra-ascended-wwe-roster\/\" target=\"_self\">been a hot 2025.<\/a> This is the match she\u2019s got.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Almost exactly two years ago, Jey Uso left The Bloodline behind on WWE SmackDown and headed to WWE Raw. Away from his dominant family, Jey became a \u201cMain Event\u201d guy. He eventually won the World Heavyweight Championship and has been the top guy on Monday Nights for 24 months.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>But now, Jey is going backward. He will once again <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/03\/19\/wwe-wrestlemania-brother-vs-brother-battles\/\" target=\"_self\">team with his twin brother Jimmy as The Usos<\/a> reform to try and deal with Seth Rollins\u2019 Vision. Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed could find things a little too even for their liking if Rollins is distracted with CM Punk and AJ Lee levelling things up in his war with them.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Finally, IYO SKY and Stephanie Vaquer will sign their contract ahead of their Women&#8217;s World Championship match at WWE Wrestlepalooza in a few weeks.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Expect all this to hot things up, and much more as we head towards <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/08\/20\/wwe-announces-first-espn-ple-wrestlepalooza\/\" target=\"_self\">WWE Wrestlepalooza.\u00a0<\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h4><strong><b>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/b><\/strong><\/h4>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-51\"><\/div>\n<p><em><i>Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><em><u><i>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/u><\/em><\/a><em><i> for more on WWE and \u00a0from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
