This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw is the first episode of 2024 and the company is looking to kick off the year in a big way. Several big matches have been announced for the show and it looks like a big name is at the venue.

Fightful Select is reporting that CM Punk is backstage at Monday Night Raw this week. It’s not clear if CM Punk will be appearing on Raw, but he was not originally advertised for the show.

There’s a lot of anticipation heading into Raw as Triple H has teased that a former WWE Champion will be appearing on the show. The former WWE Champion’s identity has not been confirmed yet though it’s worth noting that The Rock was spotted in Pasadena, CA earlier today with Nick Khan.

WWE is currently focusing on the following points for tonight’s show:

– World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre
– Rhea Ripley looks to teach Ivy Nile a lesson in a Women’s World Title Match
– Becky Lynch set to battle Nia Jax
– Tegan Nox & Natalya vs. Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark
