The last Raw before Crown Jewel had a new champion, a John Cena announcement and a final shot from Sami Zayn. Ethan Page won the Intercontinental Championship from Chad Gable, Cena revealed the date and place of the John Cena Classic, and the show ended with Zayn laying out Roman Reigns five days before their Champion vs. Champion match.

Raw came from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, with an early 6 p.m. ET start on Netflix. Here are the full results and what they mean for Saturday.

Raw results (November 2, 2026)

  • Intercontinental Championship: Ethan Page def. Chad Gable (c) to win the title (18:00)
  • Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez & Roxanne Perez def. Chelsea Green, Tiffany Stratton & IYO SKY (11:00)
  • The Vision (Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed & Austin Theory) def. Penta, Je'Von Evans & Dragon Lee
  • Solo Sikoa def. Royce Keys by disqualification
  • John Cena announced the John Cena Classic for December 14 at Walt Disney World, with Cody Rhodes as the first entrant

Reigns and Zayn trade shots to open the show

Reigns opened Raw and was soon interrupted by Undisputed WWE Champion Sami Zayn. Reigns told Zayn his whole career had been built on The Bloodline. Zayn fired back by bringing up Reigns' WrestleMania 38 match with Brock Lesnar and the chair shot that ended their partnership. Reigns finished by demanding Zayn "acknowledge me" and dropped the mic.

Ethan Page is the new Intercontinental Champion

Gable came in with his shoulder taped up, and Page went straight after it. Gable had his moments, including an Olympic Slam through the announce table, and he trapped Page in the ankle lock more than once. Page escaped, sent Gable into an exposed turnbuckle and hit the Egoplex for the win. It ends Gable's first reign at 92 days.

The timing is interesting. Page and Big Cass have been rolling for weeks, and a report last week said the rumored stable with Rusev had not been pitched to the wrestlers yet. A title around Page's waist makes him the obvious centre of anything WWE builds next. Read more in our Page, Rusev and Big Cass report.

The Judgment Day wins the champions' preview

The six-woman tag put both women's champions in the same ring days before they meet at Crown Jewel. It ended with Roxanne Perez distracting Chelsea Green on the apron, and Liv Morgan hitting Oblivion on Green for the pin. Morgan beat the woman she faces on Saturday, which usually means the opposite happens at the PLE, so Green should not worry too much. Tiffany Stratton still has her briefcase, and did not try to cash in this time.

John Cena reveals the John Cena Classic

John Cena was back on WWE TV for the first time since May and had three announcements:

  • The John Cena Classic takes place on Monday, December 14, at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
  • There will be two Raws that day: one from Perth, Australia, after Wrestlepalooza: Perth, and another from Florida built around the Classic.
  • The winner gets a new John Cena Classic Championship, designed after Cena's old spinner WWE Championship.

Cena named Cody Rhodes as the first entrant. That brought out Randy Orton, who reminded Rhodes that he ended Dusty Rhodes' career and promised to be the "Rhodes Killer" in their Last Man Standing match at Crown Jewel. Cena also said he will be at NXT, SmackDown and Survivor Series to fill out the field.

The Vision beats Penta's team

Bron Breakker speared Je'Von Evans for the win, after Evans had taken out Reed and hit Theory with a Red Dot. Logan Paul and Maxxine Dupri were at ringside with The Vision. Breakker and Theory defend the World Tag Team Championship against Penta and Evans on Saturday, so The Vision have the momentum going in.

Bayley gets a warning

Backstage, Bayley asked Adam Pearce who is next for her after beating Lyra Valkyria. Jade Cargill, Michin and B-Fab interrupted, and it is clear Bayley's next fight will be with them.

Main event: Solo Sikoa vs. Royce Keys, and Zayn's parting shot

Solo Sikoa won by disqualification when Lucien Price, Bronco Nima and Carmelo Hayes of The 946 ran in. Reigns and The Usos came out to help, and a big brawl broke out. A masked man then hit Reigns with a steel chair and unmasked as Cruz Montana, who sided with The 946. The 946 left The Bloodline laying, with Jey Uso put through a table.

As Reigns tried to get up, Zayn came out and hit him with a Helluva Kick to end the show, standing over the man he faces for the Crown Jewel Championship on Saturday.

What it means and what's next

  • Zayn got the last word, which on a go-home show often points to the other man winning the match. Reigns vs. Zayn is one of the toughest Crown Jewel matches to call.
  • The 946 now has another member in Cruz Montana and a clear target in Reigns. The Bloodline vs. The 946 looks set to run well past Crown Jewel.
  • Page's title win gives Raw a new Intercontinental Champion heading into Survivor Series season.
  • The John Cena Classic is now a real event with a date, a venue and a belt. Expect more names over the next few weeks.

Crown Jewel is on Saturday, November 7, in Riyadh. See the full card in our Crown Jewel 2026 preview.
