Today's episode of WWE Monday Night Raw (September 22, 2025) emanates out of the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana and will air starting at the special broadcast time of 7 p.m. EST on Netflix.
This post will be updated frequently throughout the program (for however long the show goes on). As Raw goes on, keep refreshing this post to get the most up-to-date information on all the match winners, breakdowns of the promo segments, and anything else noteworthy or interesting that takes place.
Preview & Predictions for WWE RAW:
On tap for today's episode, Cody Rhodes will be in attendance. He should be there to help promote his upcoming match against Seth Rollins for the Crown Jewel Championship concept at the next premium live event, Crown Jewel, taking place in Perth. We should expect Seth Rollins to acknowledge Cody Rhodes in some fashion. However, he'll also have his hands full with continuing his storyline of he and his wife Becky Lynch against CM Punk and AJ Lee. Meanwhile, the rest of The Vision (Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed) still have issues with The Usos and LA Knight, so that story should also continue. Hopefully, we're not in store for yet another opening segment that sets up the same tag team match that has interference that we get every single week.
As far as more on that front, as well as the events that transpired at Wrestlepalooza, Stephanie Vaquer won the vacated Women's World Championship. Do we get her first challenger decided on? How so, and who might that end up being? Or, with Crown Jewel in mind, since we can assume she'll face Tiffany Stratton (or whoever is champion after Friday Night SmackDown, as Nia Jax and Jade Cargill could win the title instead), maybe WWE will continue their stalling tactics and try to hold off on setting up anyone against Vaquer just yet and focus more on that Rhea Ripley & Iyo Sky tension with Asuka and Kairi Sane instead.
Rusev formally introduced himself to Dominik Mysterio last week and said that he's going to be the next intercontinental champion. It'd be strange if that story doesn't continue in some fashion. Bayley will face Roxanne Perez, and Grayson Waller will team with The New Day against Penta and The War Raiders.
Here are your results for WWE Monday Night Raw - September 22, 2025:
- Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins started off the show to talk about Crown Jewel and how they'll be facing each other in Perth in that champion versus champion match.
- No Disqualification Six-Man Tag Team Match: Penta & The War Raiders (Erik & Ivar) defeated Grayson Waller & The New Day (Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods) by pinfall.
- Backstage, Dominik Mysterio wants help with Rusev. Finn Balor says no. So does JD McDonagh. Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez then convince McDonagh to help him, so Dom tells him he's already booked a match between JD and Rusev.
- Backstage, Lyra Valkyria was confused when Bayley asked her to be ringside in her corner for her match tonight.
- Adam Pearce welcomed Stephanie Vaquer to the ring for a promo about winning the Women's World Championship and a reminder to fans that she'll fight the winner of Tiffany Stratton vs Jade Cargill vs Nia Jax at Crown Jewel.
- Backstage, Nikki Bella and Rhea Ripley congratulated Stephanie Vaquer on her title win. The Kabuki Warriors came over so Asuka could say Iyo Sky should be champion instead, and to argue with Ripley to set up a match for later.
- Bayley defeated Roxanne Perez by pinfall. After the match, Bayley then got upset at Valkyria, snapping into her other personality.
- Backstage, Cody Rhodes and Jimmy Uso had a moment together. Rhodes is going to try to talk to Jey. After the break, The American Nightmare gave Jey a pep talk.
- Rusev defeated JD McDonagh by submission
- Jey Uso defeated LA Knight by pinfall. The Brons had came out and distracted Knight, which Jey took advantage of.
- Backstage, Becky Lynch was fuming about the disrespect she and Seth Rollins have been given and plans to make an example in some way.
- A vignette aired for "Los Americanos", the new stable name for the three El Grande Americanos.
- Backstage, Maxxine Dupri wants an opportunity from Adam Pearce, who told her to keep doing what she's doing. AJ Styles and Dragon Lee then complained about Los Americanos. They want a tag match for next week.
- Rhea Ripley defeated Asuka by pinfall. Asuka then spit mist in the eyes of Ripley and demanded that Kairi Sane join in on a post-match beat down. Iyo Sky came out to tell them to stop, only for Asuka to hit Sky and for the Kabuki Warriors to take her out as well.
