John Cena will appear live, the final build to Crown Jewel and more has been announced for the November 2 edition of WWE Raw.
During the October 26 edition of Raw, a video played hyping up Cena’s return to the red brand, which will take place at the Barclays Center next week. This will be Cena’s first appearance on weekly WWE TV since he retired back in December 2025. The last time Cena appeared live was at Backlash, where the 17-time World Champion announced the John Cena Classic would take place later in the year. There is the possibility that Cena will provide more information on this during his appearance. The John Cena Classic has been rumoured to take place in December 2026.
One match has currently been announced for the show, which will see Royce Keys face Solo Sikoa. Both men are on opposite sides of a faction war, with Keys leading the 946 and Sikoa being part of The Bloodline.
The November 2 Raw will also be the final episode of the Monday night show before Crown Jewel on November 7. At the time of writing, the show is still scheduled to take place as planned in Saudi Arabia.
There will be a double taping at the venue, as the November 6 SmackDown will be taped directly after Raw goes off the air.
