WWE is set to make history tonight with the highly anticipated premiere of Monday Night Raw on Netflix, marking a monumental shift in the company's approach to broadcasting.
The show will feature a who's who of WWE legends and current superstars, including Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, CM Punk, Rhea Ripley, and a special appearance from John Cena as part of his Retirement Tour.
This transition to streaming marks a new era for WWE, and the company is pulling out all the stops to ensure that tonight's debut is a blockbuster event.
In a stunning twist, Raw will also see the return of The Undertaker. PWInsider Elite reports that the legendary figure has been spotted in Los Angeles, just ahead of the show in nearby Inglewood.
The Undertaker is reportedly slated to make a special return, with plans for his iconic "American Badass" entrance on a motorcycle.
This surprise appearance follows his role at WrestleMania 40, where he helped prevent interference from The Bloodline in Cody Rhodes' match against Roman Reigns, even delivering a memorable chokeslam to The Rock.
Beyond his in-ring appearances, The Undertaker has embraced new ventures since retiring from active competition. He recently launched a podcast under his legal name, "Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway," where he opens up about his legendary career and life on the road.
This is a significant departure from his previously carefully curated public persona, offering fans an intimate look at the man behind the Deadman.
But The Undertaker's return is just one part of tonight's epic show. WWE is loading Raw with explosive matchups that have fans on the edge of their seats.
Seth Rollins and CM Punk will finally face off, a long-awaited confrontation that has been brewing for years.
Liv Morgan will put her Women's World Championship on the line against Rhea Ripley, while Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa will square off in a high-stakes battle over the Ula Fala and the coveted title of Tribal Chief.
Additionally, Jey Uso will seek revenge on Drew McIntyre in a bitter, personal feud.

WWE is also introducing a major new element for this era of Raw with the launch of a "transfer portal" between Raw and SmackDown. This means stars from both brands could appear on either show, opening up the possibility for surprise appearances and even bigger crossovers.
Adding to the excitement, The Rock is expected to make a special appearance, further stacking the deck for this historic debut.
As WWE transitions to Netflix, the pressure to deliver a massive viewership is on, and tonight's Raw promises to be a game-changer.
