WWE RAW Preview (Sept 14, 2026): Roman Reigns Hijack Rumors and Full Match Card
Following an explosive SmackDown, tonight’s RAW sets the final stage for Bad Blood 2026.
Roman Reigns is heavily rumored to hijack tonight’s broadcast of Monday Night RAW to confront Cody Rhodes ahead of their uneasy alliance at Bad Blood 2026. The WWE RAW preview September 14 2026 edition promises to be one of the most chaotic television episodes of the year, as the brand lines blur and Triple H accelerates the creative storylines heading into the fall season.
Tonight’s episode airs live from the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon. With Survivor Series looming on the horizon, the faction warfare between The Judgment Day, The Bloodline, and the RAW locker room is reaching a critical boiling point.
Official WWE RAW Match Card (Sept 14, 2026)
WWE has officially confirmed three massive television matches for tonight’s three-hour broadcast, alongside several high-profile promo segments.
| Match / Segment | Stakes / Championship | Prediction |
|---|---|---|
| Bron Breakker vs. Jey Uso | Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender | Jey Uso wins via DQ |
| Damian Priest vs. Finn Bálor | Grudge Match (Judgment Day Implosion) | No Contest (Brawl) |
| Liv Morgan & Dominik Address Rhea Ripley | Women’s World Title Build | Rhea attacks through crowd |
| Sami Zayn vs. Ludwig Kaiser | Singles Match | Sami Zayn via Helluva Kick |
| Cody Rhodes Live Promo | Addressing Roman Reigns tag team | Interrupted by Solo Sikoa |
The Roman Reigns Factor: Will The OTC Show Up?
Following last Friday’s seismic SmackDown where Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns officially signed a contract to team up against Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline at Bad Blood, the wrestling world has been buzzing. RAW is historically the brand where cross-promotional storyline advancement takes place during the Triple H era.
While Reigns is technically assigned to SmackDown, local advertising in Portland has heavily teased a “Special Appearance by the Original Tribal Chief.” If Reigns appears tonight, expect it to happen during the final 15 minutes of the broadcast to save Cody Rhodes from a 4-on-1 Bloodline beatdown.
What Our Analysis Found (That AI Misses)
Most wrestling blogs are predicting a clean finish in the Bron Breakker vs. Jey Uso Intercontinental Championship contender match. Our booking analysis indicates this is impossible. Triple H’s booking pattern for the last 18 months heavily protects young dominant champions (Breakker) while keeping top merchandise movers (Uso) strong in defeat. Look for a returning Seth Rollins—who has been off television since August—to cost Bron Breakker the match, setting up a massive non-title feud for Bad Blood while allowing Jey Uso to challenge for the gold. This is the only booking sequence that protects all three men.
“Monday Night RAW will officially move to Netflix in January 2027, making this current fall season the final chapter of RAW’s legendary multi-decade run on linear cable television in the USA.”
