WWE Raw preview for tonight's event from Greenville, South Carolina

"

Raw airs tonight (Nov. 9) with a live show emanating from Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina. This is the first episode of Raw during the three week build to Survivor Series, which takes place on Nov. 28. There’s a really strange problem with Raw now that WWE is back from Saudi Arabia WWE is back from Saudi Arabia and getting ready for Survivor Series at the end of this month. There’s one really strange problem with tonight’s Raw, however, which is that Triple H somehow forgot to book any matches for the show. This is the sort of thing that was fairly common when Vince McMahon was in charge of WWE creative, but is a much bigger surprise when it happens today. WWE did just run a nearly three hour Crown Jewel PLE with only four total matches, so they are really good at wasting a lot of time. Perhaps the goal tonight is more of the same. After all, WWE’s web site does list Roman Reigns and Oba Femi as two of the Featured Superstars tonight, and they don’t wrestle on Raw, so perhaps that’s 30+ minutes of just entrances and talking segments right there. What will the OTC be doing on this show? There’s a War Games match to make official with The Bloodline vs. 946, and I don’t think Reigns is on Raw next week. That means tonight would be a great time for 946 and its newest member Cruz Montana to overwhelm The Bloodline, only for Jacob Fatu to make his surprise return, after presumably surviving Jaida Parker’s vehicular murder attempt. Is Roman Reigns ready to get his fifth man for The Bloodline so that War Games can be officially announced? Tune into Raw to find out. The rest of the card As mentioned earlier, Oba Femi is supposed to be on the show tonight, fresh off tossing Bronson Reed around like a jabroni at Crown Jewel. Was this Oba’s way of putting a cherry on top of his dominance of The Vision before moving on to a bigger threat, or does it mean he will still be dealing with Bron Breakker and his ineffective friends for a while longer? Is Paul Heyman going to show up with his latest pitch to turn The Ruler into a Paul Heyman Guy? Other stuff to keep an eye on – Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan lost at Crown Jewel, but she no longer has to worry about Tiffany Stratton cashing in the Money in the Bank contract on her. Morgan does still have Becky Lynch breathing down her neck. There’s also Stephanie Vaquer, who is medically cleared and returned to action at WWE house shows on the eve of Crown Jewel. After Becky was screwed out of the title in a match against Morgan a couple weeks ago, is it Vaquer’s turn to show up on Raw tonight and declare she’s next in line for a title shot? – Bayley suddenly finds herself part of Charlotte Flair’s feud with Jade Cargill, which is probably leading to the women’s War Games match. Are they all going to show up tonight for a big angle on Raw, or will Bayley be taking care of her business on the blue brand for the next few weeks? Can IYO SKY find a way to get herself added to the story so she can do her annual moonsault off the top of the War Games steel cage while wearing a garbage can? – WWE needs to build some teams for its traditional Survivor Series tag team match of Team USA vs. Team Mexico. Is Cody Rhodes going to recruit Chad Gable onto his squad, given Chad’s excellent record at beating babyface luchadors in recent months? What does Dominik Mysterio think about his deadbeat cheating dad putting this match together? Is this where LA Knight lands on the Survivor Series card, or does he remain lost in the shuffle? – How obnoxious will “All Ego” Ethan Page be in his first Raw promo as the new Intercontinental champion? Will Gable or Dragon Lee be the first babyface to interrupt him looking for a title shot? – When is IYO SKY getting a title match against Women’s Intercontinental Champion Raquel Rodriguez? – Penta and Je’Von Evans are the new world tag team champions. Will they already prove to be better champions than The Vision by successfully defending their belts one time on Raw? – Big Cass is very tall. If he needs to get some momentum going his way, will his Big Boot make its way towards Joe Hendry’s face tonight? Or will he instead get Enzo Amore back by his side on Raw? – Will there be any more teases for who is in the John Cena Classic, or do we have to wait until John returns to SmackDown later this week? – After losing her feud against Bayley, does Lyra Valkyria now keep getting beat by stars like Lola Vice and Sol Ruca? – Where the f*** is Seth Rollins? Is he more likely to return to Raw tonight now that WWE isn’t sending its wrestlers into a war zone in the Middle East for at least a few months? What will you be looking for on Raw?
