New York, 23 October - The October 23 episode of Monday Night Raw, set to take place at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX, already boasts a jam-packed lineup of thrilling matchups. To kick things off, fans can expect a singles showdown between Drew McIntyre and Sami Zayn. ## Meanwhile, the NXT Women's Champion, Becky Lynch, will step into the ring to defend her title against the formidable Indi Hartwell. In addition to these marquee bouts, the evening promises a tag team clash between Alpha Academy, represented by Chad Gable and Otis, and the dynamic duo of The New Day, featuring Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. ## There's a must-watch singles match on the card, pitting Jey Uso against the fierce Damian Priest. As if that weren't enough excitement, "The Judgment Day" is slated to make a significant appearance during the show. ## Let's check out the top 3 things: ## #1. Jey Uso vs. Damian Priest To Be Interrupted By The Judgment Day; Sami Zayn Helps Jey Uso Out ## This upcoming Monday Night Raw, there is a singles match scheduled between Jey Uso and Damian Priest. Additionally, The Judgement Day is set to appear on the show, indicating that they may be at ringside to promote Priest. It's highly likely that there will be an interruption from The Judgement Day during the match. ## Last week on Raw, Sami Zayn addressed Kevin Owens' departure from Raw, and he found himself surrounded by The Judgement Day, seemingly ready to attack him. However, it was Jey Uso who came to his aid and helped him out of the situation. Therefore, it's plausible that Sami will be there to support Jey in return. ## #2. More Matches To Be Announce For Crown Jewel ## The 2023 Crown Jewel currently features only four matches on its card, which may not be sufficient for an exciting show. WWE is likely to address this issue by arranging additional matches on this week's edition of Raw. There's a strong sense that we might witness the announcement of The Undisputed WWE Universal Title being added to the event. ## #3. Natalya & Tegan Nox vs. Piper Niven & Chelsea Green## On last week's Monday Night Raw, Piper Niven secured a victory over Natalya, courtesy of a distraction provided by Chelsea Green. After the match, Green entered the ring and teamed up with Niven to launch an attack on Natalya. This prompted Tegan Nox to come to the ring and even the odds. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Boston, 19 October - It's truly surreal to witness Jade Cargill's presence in WWE, where she's being elevated to the status of a top-tier star within the company. Cargill previously plied her trade in AEW, where she made history as the inaugural AEW TBS Champion. ## Without a doubt, Cargill enjoyed a remarkable stint in AEW, cementing her status as one of the premier talents in the women's division. However, her current trajectory in WWE is generating substantial excitement among fans, and her storyline is shrouded in anticipation. ## On September 26, Cargill officially inked her deal with WWE and has since made appearances on all of WWE's brands, including Raw, SmackDown, and NXT. Although her in-ring action has been limited thus far, she has engaged in confrontations with prominent main event stars, hinting at potential clashes to come. ## Cargill has interacted with the likes of Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels, fueling speculation about significant plans in the works for her. Furthermore, Cargill herself took to social media to share some intriguing teasers. ## She posted a picture of herself outside the new WWE Headquarters and another image of her standing in a room with the WWE logo bathed in red lighting. She cleverly remarked that red suits her well, drawing attention to the fact that WWE Raw is often referred to as the "red brand." ## Today was a good day. 😎⚡️ pic.twitter.com/WFCrNBEzTD— Jade Cargill (@Jade_Cargill) October 19, 2023 ## IDK yall….red looks so good on me. 😎 pic.twitter.com/aHUziwaqzx— Jade Cargill (@Jade_Cargill) October 19, 2023 ## You would think the logo was made for MY pose ⚡️😎🤑 pic.twitter.com/HQRcBjxmZ7— Jade Cargill (@Jade_Cargill) October 19, 2023 ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Chicago, 17 October - After confronting Rey Mysterio on the October 20 episode of WWE SmackDown, Paul will return to the Raw brand with plenty of things in mind. His last appearance in WWE was seen at SummerSlam where he was victorious over Ricochet. ## A significant showdown is in the cards as Drew McIntyre faces off against Sami Zayn in a one-on-one match. Their encounter last week on Raw was marked by a heated backstage confrontation. Notably, Zayn has yet to secure a victory over McIntyre, with the Scottish Warrior maintaining an impressive 4-0-1 record against him. This match comes just ahead of McIntyre's clash with Seth Rollins at WWE Crown Jewel for the Heavyweight Title. ## Ever since her victory in capturing the NXT Women's Title, Becky Lynch has been consistently defending her championship against formidable competitors in the NXT roster. Looking ahead to this week's Monday Night Raw, Becky Lynch is set to defend her title against Indi Hartwell. ## Although not yet officially announced for the event, there are strong indications that Alpha Academy, represented by Chad Gable and Otis, will be squaring off against The New Day, consisting of Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston, in an upcoming tag team match. ## Check out the updated lineup: ## WWE Raw (10/23) Updated Lineup ## NXT Women's Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Indi Hartwell## Drew McIntyre vs. Sami Zayn## Logan Paul returns## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Los Angeles, 15 October - WWE has an impressive roster set for tonight's event at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. To kick things off, the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles will be up for grabs, with champions Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso defending their titles against Judgment Day. ## In another championship bout, Bronson Reed will vie for the Intercontinental Title against Gunther. Additionally, a Falls Count Anywhere Match will see Ricochet and Shinsuke Nakamura going head-to-head in a high-stakes showdown. Moreover, the card features a singles match pitting Shayna Baszler against Rhea Ripley. ## Let's check out the top 3 things: ## #1. The rivalry between Ivar and Kofi Kingston continues ## It's been a considerable stretch since they last locked horns in a feud, and it seems this should come to a resolution at WWE Crown Jewel. In the preceding week, Kofi Kingston and Ivar squared off in a Viking Rules Match, with Kofi emerging as the victor. ## Yet, it appears that the rivalry is far from reaching its conclusion. ## #2. Sami Zayn To Address Kevin Owens' Trade ## As previously mentioned, Kevin Owens has made the transition to SmackDown and will no longer be seen on WWE Raw. During his tenure on the Raw brand, Owens frequently teamed up with his tag partner Sami Zayn, but this partnership has now come to a close. ## In a recent episode of SmackDown, Nick Aldis, the newly appointed GM of the brand, officially announced Owens' trade to SmackDown. Consequently, I anticipate that Zayn will make his way to the ring to address Owens and share some words about their separation. ## #3. New Match To Be Announced For WWE Crown Jewel ## We're approaching WWE Crown Jewel, which is just under three weeks away, and as of now, only one match has been officially confirmed for the event. In my opinion, this week's episode of Raw should be the platform for WWE to unveil the lineup of matches for the upcoming event. ## Taking this into consideration, it's plausible that Rhea Ripley may put her title on the line against Nia Jax at Crown Jewel. Additionally, there is a strong likelihood that we'll witness the announcement of the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles match for the event. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
