The next episode of WWE Raw promises to be a blockbuster one, says General Manager Adam Pearce in his official preview.

The Raw episode after WrestleMania 42 saw some new storylines take shape, as is the case with WWE shows after WrestleMania season ends.

Many feuds culminated at the Showcase of the Immortals, and major titles changed hands. The stars at the forefront now are all set to take the next step in their journey as WWE heads to its Backlash PLE on May 9th.

The main event saw the new World Heavyweight Champion, Roman Reigns, challenged by Jacob Fatu for Reigns’ championship at Backlash. In the Intercontinental Championship scene, Rusev interrupted to cost Je’Von Evans his match against Ethan Page to get back at Evans, who landed the OG Cutter on Rusev from the top of a ladder at WrestleMania 42.

The Tag Team Champions, Logan Paul and Austin Theory, were nearly taken out by a returning Street Profits on the show.

All of the action from the last episode will continue this coming Monday when Raw will be live from Laredo, Texas.

As per usual, Pearce dropped a clip on X, giving a preview of tomorrow’s Raw episode while taking a walk outside.

Pearce made some major announcements of segments, including Joe Hendry’s first concert on Raw, Penta vs Rusev, Becky Lynch’s appearance, and Roman Reigns’ answer to Jacob Fatu’s Backlash World Title challenge, among other announcements.

Happy Sunday, everybody. Monday Night Raw, coming to you live tomorrow night from Laredo, deep in the heart of Texas and kicking off the broadcast with a tonne to get off his chest, Seth Freaking Rollins. Also live in Laredo, his better half? Maybe, maybe not.

Anyway, Becky Lynch, live on Monday Night Raw. And say his name, and he will appear, for his first concert on the flagship. Joe Hendry will strum the six-string. And two matches I’d like to get out there. Men have beef, we’re gonna settle in the ring. Penta one-on-one with Rusev, and women’s tag action, Bayley and Lara Valkyria take on Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. Liv Morgan will be in their corner.

And I can confirm the OTC Roman Reigns will make his decision about Jacob Fatu’s challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship at Backlash. All that and so much more. For those of you not listening, it’s a flagship Monday Night Raw 8e/5p live around the world on Netflix. Laredo, we’re coming, and it is official.
