Roman Reigns to Return on WWE Raw in St. Louis as Liv Morgan Faces Becky Lynch in #1 Contender Match

Roman Reigns is scheduled to appear and Liv Morgan will take on Becky Lynch on Monday Night Raw at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri on October 5, 2026, as WWE continues its build toward the Money in the Bank event. The episode will also feature a series of matches intended to finalize portions of the Money in the Bank card.

WWE’s Money in the Bank ladder matches already have 12 participants — six men and six women — determined at the recent event in New Orleans, but the October 5 Raw is expected to deliver additional title matches and final contest announcements. Khel Now lists a number of superstars slated to appear on the St. Louis card as WWE continues promotion ahead of the pay-per-view.

Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch are booked to compete in a Women’s World Title No. 1 Contender match that will determine Stephanie Vaquer’s next opponent at Money in the Bank. The outcome on Raw will therefore produce a direct challenger for Vaquer at the upcoming event.

A singles match between Fenix and Ethan Page is on the card; Fenix has announced he will defend the AAA Cruiserweight Championship across WWE’s brands, and the listing notes Page will attempt to end that streak early. Another announced bout pairs Penta and Je’Von Evans against The Vision’s Bron Breakker and Austin Theory, a match involving three confirmed Money in the Bank competitors and described as adding tension ahead of the Saturday ladder match.

Sol Ruca and Lola Vice will team up to face Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez in a tag contest; the pairing of Vice and Ruca has been highlighted after they displayed a bond on the most recent Raw episode. The card includes multiple cross-brand and title-related matchups aimed at resolving contender lines prior to Money in the Bank.

The show will also touch on the ongoing 946 versus Bloodline storyline: Jaida Parker recently joined 946 and ran over Jacob Fatu with a car, the report says, and with Fatu potentially sidelined and Solo Sikoa previously targeted by 946, Roman Reigns is listed among the featured stars who could address the escalating feud. LA Knight’s challenge to Reigns, made and reinforced with a message on the September 21 edition of Raw, remains a talking point and Reigns is expected to have the final say before their scheduled World Heavyweight Championship match at Money in the Bank; Seth Rollins is also advertised as a featured star on the October 5 show, and the report notes he signed a fresh ESPN deal outside WWE while stating he has three years left on his WWE contract.

WrestleTix figures cited in the preview show the October 5 Raw with a current setup of 9,154 seats, 7,985 tickets distributed and 1,169 available tickets; the update records a +1,465 change since the previous seven-day update and lists a YTD show average of 11,261. WWE’s most recent event at the Enterprise Center, the April 3, 2026 Friday Night SmackDown broadcast, drew 11,687 fans, and the Monday Night Raw broadcast is scheduled to begin at 6:30 PM local time.

Roman Reigns is due to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight at Money in the Bank, and Monday’s Raw in St. Louis is slated to both advance the 946–Bloodline angle and determine the Women’s World Title challenger who will face Stephanie Vaquer at the event.
