‘The Absolute Best of 2022’ edition of WWE Raw to air next Monday

Next week’s Raw will be a Best of 2022 episode.

A commercial during Monday’s Raw confirmed that next week’s show on December 26 will be titled “The Absolute Best of 2022”, a highlight show focusing on the top WWE moments of the year. Footage shown included Brock Lesnar using a forklift in his SummerSlam match against Roman Reigns, Liv Morgan winning the Money in the Bank ladder match, and more.

Dave Meltzer reported on Monday morning’s Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE would not be taping next week’s Raw on Monday. Next week, the Raw roster will be in Columbus, Ohio for a house show on December 26, while SmackDown will have a house show at Madison Square Garden.

SmackDown last Friday taped a show that will air this coming Friday and will return live on December 30 with a tag team match pitting John Cena & Kevin Owens against Roman Reigns & Sami Zayn. Raw will return with a live show on January 2 with a Raw Women’s title between champion Bianca Belair and Alexa Bliss.
