Seth Rollins vs JD McDonagh
World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins will be in action in a non-title match on this week’s RAW. He will take on JD McDonagh is continuously trying to insert himself into Judgment Daym and will have another chance to prove himself worthy. Rollins has not been in action on TV since beating Shinsuke Nakamura at Fastlane. Will this match show us how ready he is for Drew McIntyre this Saturday?
Dominik Mysterio vs Ricochet
Dominik Mysterio and Logan Paul picked up a feud with Ricochet last week by insulting his fiance and WWE Ring Announcer Samantha Irvin. Ricochet dealt with both men in the ring and was about to hit Dominik with a splash, but Logan pulled him out of the ring. He will have an opportunity this week to hit that splash. Will he be able to hit that move though? Or will Judgment Day hep Dominik once again?
DIY Returns to Action
DIY pairing of Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa will be teaming together for a match for the first time in 3 years now. They will take on Imperium’s pair of Giovanni Vinci and Ludwig Kaiser with whom they are feuding for the last month or so. Vinci is on a thin footing with the group leader Gunther. Will he be able to fight out of his skin to hand DIY a loss in their tag team return? Or will we see a regulation win for DIY?

Step up and SHOOSH! pic.twitter.com/nPPdYaz6nD
Chad Gable has announced an open challenge for any team to take them on. The Creed Brothers were quick to take them up on that challenge which will mark their main roster and RAW debut. Alpha Academy have not tasted much success in tag team matches in recent months. Will they be just a fodder for The Creeds’ debut on RAW?
Natalya vs Chelsea Green
Natalya and Chelsea Green got into crosshairs last week which led to a tag team match with Chelsea teaming with Piper Niven, and Natalya teaming up with Nikki Cross. Nikki, however, was absent minded as she had been for the last few weeks. And this ended up costing Natalya the match. However, she will have another chance as she takes on Chelsea in a trick or treat street fight now. How will Chelsea tackle Nattie in a singles match?
Get ready for the Trick-or-Street Fight between @NatbyNature & @ImChelseaGreen tomorrow night on #WWERaw! pic.twitter.com/4zDp44zxpE

Xia Li vs Candice LeRae
Xia Li wanted a NXT Women’s title shot, but it went to Indi Hartwell instead. She vented her frustration on Candice LeRae and beat her up backstage in the aftermath of Becky Lynch vs Indi Hartwell match. Candice will have a chance at revenge on this week’s RAW episode.
What’s Next for Becky Lynch?
Becky Lynch had a short run as NXT Women’s Champion, which ended last week at Halloween Havoc with a defeat to Lyra Valkyrie. She is expected to be back on RAW now to bolster a women’s division which is already at war. Where will she fit in?
