WWE RAW will air live from the Moda Center in Portland on January 8, 2024. It will be the first episode of RAW after the Day 1 special on New Year’s Day. WWE has announced a star-studded lineup for the show to attract maximum viewership possible on the road to Royal Rumble 2024.
The biggest thing announced for the January 8, 2024 episode of WWE RAW is the return of CM Punk. The Second City Saint will make his first TV appearance of the year on RAW. He made his WWE in-ring return during the Holiday Tour last December, where he defeated Dominik Mysterio multiple times.
Punk has already declared for the 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble match. It will be interesting to see what the former AEW Champion has to say on tonight’s episode in Portland.
Apart from that, WWE has also announced a singles match between Undisputed Tag Team Champion Finn Balor and Ciampa. This match will likely set up a future tag team title match between The Judgment Day and DIY. Another singles match on the show will feature former Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura against the American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
Two more singles matches have been announced for WWE RAW on January 8, 2024. The Miz will take on JD McDonagh after the epic tag team match that happened at Day 1. New Day member Kofi Kingston will lock horns with Imperium’s Ludwig Kaiser.
Fans will also witness a championship match on the show. The new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Kayden Carter and Katana Chance will put their titles on the line against former champions Chelsea Green and Piper Niven.
