WWE Crown Jewel in the books with Monday Night Raw promising fallout from an exciting night – make sure you don’t miss it.

The premium live event had its share of epic moments, from Bronson Reed causing a major upset over Roman Reigns, to John Cena beating AJ Styles in a heartfelt and emotional final bout.

The Raw men’s and women’s world champions Seth Rollins and Stephanie Vaquer both scored impressive wins over their respective SmackDown counterparts, with plenty of drama to come.

There’s no Cena tonight, as the greatest of all time has just four appearances left before his retirement.

Still, fans have a lot to get excited about tomorrow, with the Intercontinental Championship up for grabs, as well as a stacked tag team bout.

This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw starts at 1pm for fans in the UK.

All WWE live broadcasts usually air in the early hours for those of us in the UK, but it’s been very different over the last few days.

Unlike Saturday’s Crown Jewel premium live event, most people will be working while this one’s on, so make sure you’ve got Netflix ready on your phone.

As with Friday’s SmackDown and Crown Jewel, Monday Night Raw is airing live from Perth, Australia.

It’s the last of the company’s international weekenders for 2025, although you can see all of WWE’s upcoming UK and European shows further down this page.

Just like we WWE’s two extensive European tours earlier this year, the Netflix influence has really been a positive for fans in the UK, with shows at a much more convenient time.

In the past, WWE’s international tapings for live TV meant the rest of the world still had to wait and fit in with US broadcast times, so a show held in Manchester or London at 6pm wouldn’t actually air for other Brits until 1am.

WWE Raw roster and champions

None of the regularly championships were on the line over the weekend, so Seth Rollins is still on top as World Heavyweight Champion, as well as the second annual Crown Jewel Champion.

As for the Women’s World Title, Stephanie Vaquer (who won the Women’s Crown Jewel Title) has held the gold after pregnant superstar Naomi had to step away for the time being.

As for the women’s and men’s Intercontinental Championships, Becky Lynch is still champ, and Dominik Mysterio will be hoping to retain his title against Penta on Raw, while Dirty Dom’s Judgment Day teammates Finn Balor and JD McDonagh are the World Tag Team Champions.
