Superstars confirmed for WWE Raw on November 2, 2026 include John Cena, Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa

John Cena, Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa are among the Superstars confirmed for WWE Raw on November 2, 2026 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The November 2 show is a special double taping designed to fit WWE’s travel schedule ahead of Crown Jewel on November 7 in Riyadh.

The October 26 edition of Monday Night Raw from Fresno, California produced several key developments on the road to Crown Jewel 2026, including multiple title defences that clarified parts of the PLE card. General Manager Adam Pearce confirmed that Penta and Evans will challenge Breakker and Austin Theory for the World Tag Team Championship at Crown Jewel. WWE has scheduled the November 2 episode as a red-brand taping at the Barclays Center and will pair it with a blue-brand taping to accommodate travel to Riyadh.

John Cena is advertised for the Brooklyn show and will make his first appearance on WWE programming since Backlash 2026, where he announced the inaugural John Cena Classic. His return is expected to provide an update on the tournament that he previously indicated would begin in December. Cena has not been announced for an in-ring match, and the promotion has yet to reveal the full purpose of his appearance.

Solo Sikoa will meet Royce Keys in a singles match on the November 2 card as the rivalry between The Bloodline and The 946 continues. Royce Keys challenged Sikoa during the October 26 episode, seeking an opportunity to face him without the wider faction battle getting in the way, and Sikoa later accepted the challenge in a segment alongside his Bloodline allies. The pairing follows an escalating feud that has involved members of The Usos and The 946.

Roman Reigns is advertised to appear on the night and is set to address his plans and views on the Crown Jewel PLE and the ongoing rivalry with The 946, as well as potential challengers for his title.

The November 2 episode will showcase the return of Cena and the singles match between Sikoa and Keys while also serving as part of WWE’s logistical build toward Crown Jewel. With Penta and Evans booked to challenge Breakker and Austin Theory for the World Tag Team Championship at Crown Jewel, the next confirmed event on the calendar remains Crown Jewel on November 7 in Riyadh, and further details about matches and appearances are expected ahead of that PLE.
