Becky Lynch is back on WWE Monday Night Raw while the first hour will be presented commercial-free.

At WWE Survivor Series this past Saturday, former Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch was back in a WWE ring for the first time since suffering a shoulder injury at SummerSlam on July 30th. Lynch was part of Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair’s team in the WarGames match that opened Survivor Series. It was Lynch’s months in nearly four months.

The conclusion of the Women’s WarGames match featured a big move from Lynch, who jumped off a small platform at the top of the WarGames cage and delivered a leg drop/splash onto Dakota Kai & IYO SKY, who went crashing through the table they were on. Lynch pinned Kai to win the match for her team.

It is currently unknown what Lynch will be doing other than a likely promo to start the show. During the WarGames match, she certainly teased potential rivalries with Bayley and Rhea Ripley, so we could see one of them interrupt Lynch.

In addition to Lynch, WWE’s Byron Saxton announced in a Twitter video that the first hour of tonight’s Raw from Norfolk, Virginia will air commercial-free. It is something that WWE sometimes and usually means an action-packed first hour as Raw competes other television shows on Mondays including ESPN’s NFL Monday Night Football game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Indianapolis Colts.

There has also been one match announced for the show, which was set up two weeks ago. The Miz will face Dexter Lumis in singles action and if Lumis wins, he gets a WWE contract. Lumis appeared briefly in the video with Saxton and in customary Lumis fashion, he didn’t say anything.
