Spoiler: WWE Superstar Competes in First Match Back in Over 500 Days on 12/23 RAW

WWE’s final Monday Night Raw of the year is set to be a taped episode, giving talent and crew some well-deserved time off to celebrate the holidays. Despite the pre-recorded nature of the show, it still packs a punch with some intriguing matchups and segments.

The centerpiece of the episode will be a Jackie Redmond sit-down interview with Seth Rollins. The WWE World Heavyweight Champion will discuss his upcoming Raw on Netflix debut match against CM Punk. Fans are eager to hear Rollins’ thoughts as the highly anticipated showdown inches closer.

Another major highlight is Dexter Lumis stepping back into singles competition after a staggering 567-day hiatus. Lumis will face The Miz, a matchup set up last week when Miz attempted to leave The Wyatt Sicks group, only for Karrion Kross to remind him that he’s not the one calling the shots.

This will be Lumis’ first singles bout since defeating Akira Tozawa during a Main Event taping in May 2023. It’s also his first solo match on Raw since February of that year, where he lost to Baron Corbin.

On the other side, The Miz is looking to turn his luck around after a rough year in singles competition. His last televised singles victory came in February against Logan Paul, but he’s since been on a four-match losing streak.

Dexter Lumis’ return and The Miz’s desperate bid to break his losing streak set the stage for a must-watch showdown on Raw. With holiday vibes in the air and high stakes in the ring, this episode promises some unforgettable moments.
