WWE Raw preview October 26: start time, how to watch, location
WWE Raw (October 26, 2026) — Venue: Save Mart Center, Fresno, CA. Time: 8 p.m. ET. How to watch: Netflix. Raw General Manager Adam Pearce previewed the show in a social media video, confirming the final two additions to the card and setting up a night where wins carry consequences beyond bragging rights.
Fightful will have live coverage of Raw beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Monday, followed by a post-show podcast on its YouTube channel.
WWE Raw October 26 matches: Becky Lynch vs Stephanie Vaquer
The headline bout is the WWE Women’s World Championship Number One Contenders Match: Stephanie Vaquer vs. Becky Lynch. The winner earns a shot at Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan, making this the most consequential match on the card. Both women have championship pedigree, and a clean win here immediately puts the victor at the front of the title queue.
The other title-adjacent bout is Raquel Rodriguez vs. IYO SKY. Pearce implied that a victory for SKY could earn her a chance at Rodriguez’s Women’s Intercontinental Championship — a high-stakes twist on a non-title meeting between champion and challenger. SKY beating the champion outright would be a statement in itself; doing so with a title shot attached makes it a must-win.
WWE Raw October 26: Bayley vs Lyra Valkyria No DQ, Gable and Lee vs Cass and Page
The grudge match of the night is No DQ: Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria. With no disqualifications, there is nothing to hold either woman back — and in a rivalry that has already turned personal, the stipulation promises a physical, chaotic encounter where anything around ringside is fair game.
Rounding out the card is tag team action: Chad Gable and Dragon Lee vs. Big Cass and Ethan Page. Gable, the Men’s Intercontinental Champion, teams with Lee against a formidable pairing, giving Gable a chance to get his hands on Page in a team setting while Cass adds size and power to the opposition. It is a match that could easily steal the show on pure athleticism alone.
Four matches, two title opportunities, one no-disqualification war — Raw in Fresno has a compact but loaded lineup, and by the end of the night the women’s title picture should look very different.
