CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and New Day’s Kofi Kingston will all be on WWE Raw this week. 

CM Punk didn’t appear live on last week’s show, instead participating in a sit-down backstage interview with Jackie Redmond. However, he’ll be back on Monday and is advertised to respond to Seth Rollins. 

From WWE.com:

“CM Punk is aspiring to enter the championship picture, but he seemingly has unfinished business with Seth “Freakin” Rollins. Rollins has frequently called out The Voice of the Voiceless, though Punk called Rollins a “second-stringer” while being interviewed by Jackie Redmond. Don’t miss CM Punk live on Raw, this Monday at 8/7 C on USA!”

Rollins is also advertised to appear live on Monday’s show. 

From WWE.com:

“This Monday, Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins will be live on Raw, potentially on a collision course with CM Punk. Rollins berated Punk last week and is focused on a match with his nemesis. What will The Visionary say regarding The Best in the World this week? Don’t miss Rollins live, this Monday at 8/7 C on USA!”

This week’s WWE Raw will take place at TD Garden in Boston, MA, the hometown of New Day’s Kofi Kingston. He’s also advertised for Monday’s show. 

From WWE.com:

“The New Day have set a new path after shockingly berating Big E and kicking him out of the group during their 10-Year Anniversary Celebration. The emotional moment sent shockwaves through the WWE Universe, leaving Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods with very little support. This Monday, Kingston will return to his hometown of Boston with the hopes of getting a much better reception than he and Woods received last week. Will Kingston receive a warm welcome or be met with more hostility?”

Two title matches have also been booked for Monday’s show. Bron Breakker will defend his Intercontinental title against Ludwig Kaiser, and Finn Balor and JD McDonagh will put their titles on the line against The War Raiders.

  • World Tag Team Champions The Judgment Day (Finn Balor & JD McDonagh) defend against The War Raiders (Erik & Ivar)
