The highly anticipated premiere episode of WWE Raw on Netflix is set for January 6th at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, featuring a star-studded lineup that includes Roman Reigns, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, and John Cena.
WWE is expected to stack the show with major names and matches to make a strong debut on the streaming platform. According to Dr. Chris Featherstone, who has reported several breaking stories, WWE plans to feature CM Punk in a marquee match against Seth Rollins on the premiere episode.
Adding to the excitement, WrestleVotes noted during a recent Backstage Pass Q&A that The Rock is believed to be scheduled for the event, fueling speculation about his long-awaited return. Additionally, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels is rumored to make a special appearance, making this a must-watch event for fans.
“Well, I don’t know, are you counting Rock as a surprise? Are you counting John Cena as a surprise? They’ll both be there. I wouldn’t be surprised if Steve Austin showed up. I heard Shawn Michaels may make an appearance. Anybody that they have under a legends deal and is healthy enough to be in Los Angeles, I would expect to be there.”
