WWE Raw Promises Action-Packed Show from Quebec City
Monday Night Raw returns live from Centre Videotron in Quebec City tonight, delivering high-stakes matchups and tension-filled confrontations en route to Clash in Paris on August 31, 2025
Kick-off: CM Punk Fires Up the Show
Fresh off a dramatic loss of the World Heavyweight Title via a surprise Money in the Bank cash-in by Seth Rollins at SummerSlam, CM Punk is set to open Raw with a fiery promo. Promoters hint at further volatility, especially after last week’s backstage tumult involving LA Knight and Rollins’s faction.
Women’s World Championship: Naomi vs. IYO SKY
One of the night’s most significant bouts features Naomi defending her Women’s World Championship against IYO SKY. SKY earns a high-stakes rematch after falling short in the triple threat at SummerSlam. With the winner headed for a showdown with Stephanie Vaquer in Paris, this could be a career-defining moment.
Add to that rising intrigue: IYO SKY has declined help from the Kabuki Warriors backstage, creating a sense of unease—could there be a betrayal or surprise twist in store?
Fan-Favorites Collide: Sami Zayn vs. Rusev
In a fresh chapter of Canadian wrestling rivalry, Sami Zayn squares off against Rusev—their first singles match since 2017. This bout follows a chaotic backstage brawl involving Sheamus and promises to be a hard-hitting affair, with Zayn seeking redemption in front of a home-town crowd.
Becky Lynch Faces Maxxine Dupri
After a verbal exchange with Nikki Bella and Natalya’s intervention, Becky Lynch is booked not against Natalya, but rookie Maxxine Dupri—in their first-ever singles encounter. Can Dupri pull off the upset of her career, or will Lynch assert her dominance once again
