A new era has taken off in the WWE from last week onwards. The McMahon family will be in charge of WWE Raw and Smackdown Live. They have promised a big change on the show that should start from this week onwards. WWE has to come up with a major treat for the fans since it is the Christmas Eve night, anyway. So they have already come up with some major announcements. Overall, five matches are official for this particular edition of the show.

Full spoilers from Christmas episode of WWE Raw

WWE Raw will host five impactful matches on the show with two of them being championship bouts. Ronda Rousey will defend the women’s title where Roode-Gable will defend the WWE Raw tag team titles. A miracle on 34th street fight will take place which is mandatory on the occasions of Christmas. Furthermore, a rematch and a triple threat match will also take place that should make the night entertaining. It will not be a live show as the tapings have already been over from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California.

The headliner of this week’s WWE Raw is the women’s championship match. Natalya has earned the contender’s spot by winning the Gauntlet Match, last week. So she is getting a title shot against her friend in the form of the Rowdy One. No doubt that her veteran skills will put Ronda Rousey through an acid test. But Nattie will not be able to dethrone the champion. Spoilers suggest that Ronda Rousey will retain her title via submission.

A rematch will take place between Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman on WWE Raw. These two have previously competed in a TLC match, two weeks ago. Tonight, they will square off in a one-on-one capacity that could be the main event of the night. Corbin will be desperate to get back the momentums on his favor by defeating the Architect. Unfortunately, Rollins will be on the winner’s side via a Curb Stomp.

WWE confirmed a triple threat match featuring Finn Balor, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin on WWE Raw. This should be a solid contest among these three veteran names who are willing to hunt down each other for quite sometimes. Spoilers suggest that Finn Balor will win this bout to be on the side of a big push. McIntyre will try to spoil the party but he is not likely to be successful.

The other championship match of the night will witness the WWE Raw tag team titles being on the line. Bobby Roode and Chad Gable will compete against Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson (The Revival). It’s good to see The Revival finally getting the championship opportunity that they deserve. But they are not having enough momentums at this point and will have to wait for sometimes to get their hands on the title.

Paul Heyman will try to make some buildup about the Universal Championship match by appearing on WWE Raw. Spoilers suggest that Braun Strowman will be on the show to confront him. He will continue taunting the advocate which might bring the beast incarnate back onboard.

Another entertainer from WWE Raw will be a Miracle on 34th Street Fight. Elias and Bobby Lashley will continue their rivalry in a match where there would be no count-outs, no disqualifications. After hell breaks loose with the Christmas gifts surrounded ring, we will see Elias come up as the winner. Since it’s the happy Holiday season, the babyface figure will gain the upper hand. (Spoiler: Keep an eye on what happens to Lio Rush after the match gets over)
