WWE is bringing Monday Night Raw to Raleigh's Lenovo Center next Monday, Nov. 16, with doors opening at 6 p.m. and the show kicking off at 7:30 p.m. The card promises a packed lineup of champions and fan favorites, headlined by a special guest appearance from John Cena.
Per CBS17.com, the show features Seth Freakin Rollins and Liv Morgan, along with Women's World Champion Stephanie Vaquer and WWE Undisputed Champion Sami Zayn. The article also notes a scheduled showdown between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. Confirming the date and location, 411mania.com reports that Raw takes place from the Lenovo Center in Raleigh and is scheduled to air live on Netflix.
The arena itself, located at 1400 Edwards Mill Rd., is promoting the show as can't-miss television, with its own event page declaring, “Don't miss Monday Night Raw in Raleigh!” A broader lineup advertised by the Visit Raleigh event listing includes Oba Femi, Liv Morgan, The Usos, Jacob Fatu, Chad Gable, The Vision, L.A. Knight, Solo Sikoa, Penta and Je'Von Evans, alongside Stephanie Vaquer.
Title Pictures Get Murky Heading Into Raleigh
The seed article identifies Chad Gable as Intercontinental Champion and The Vision as World Tag Team Champions, with Vaquer holding the Women's World Championship and Sami Zayn the WWE Undisputed Championship. The Visit Raleigh listing independently backs up Gable's Intercontinental status, but Lenovo Center's own event page tells a different story, naming Dominik Mysterio as Intercontinental Champion. It's not clear from the available listings which title picture reflects the most current status heading into Raleigh.
The women's title scene carries a similar wrinkle. Lenovo Center's listing names Becky Lynch as Women's Intercontinental Champion, while a preview from prowrestling.net and a separate report from 411mania both advertise a Women's Intercontinental Championship match pitting Raquel Rodriguez against IYO SKY for Monday's show. The conflicting championship details mean fans may want to track Raw's broadcast for the latest word on who's defending what by the time bells ring in Raleigh.
What to Expect Walking Into Lenovo Center
John Cena's appearance is billed as a special guest spot rather than a confirmed match, according to the seed reporting from CBS17.com. The same report also points to Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn facing off in a scheduled showdown, adding another marquee attraction to an already stacked night built around Rollins, Morgan and Vaquer.
For fans heading to the arena, Lenovo Center's event page lays out a few practical details. Bags measuring 4.5 by 6.5 inches or smaller are permitted inside, and general parking for cars and vans runs $32 to $45. With doors opening at 6 p.m. and the show starting at 7:30 p.m., Raleigh wrestling fans have a packed Monday night ahead as WWE's flagship show rolls back into town.
