WWE RAW Live 4/28/25: Explosive Preview, Must-See Matches, and How to Watch Online
*The road to WrestleMania Backlash heats up as WWE RAW returns with another action-packed episode on Monday, April 28th, 2025!*
The WWE Universe is still buzzing from the fallout of WrestleMania 41, and with the next premium live event just weeks away, every episode of RAW is must-see television. The red brand is stacked with rivalries reaching a boiling point, championship implications, and shocking returns that could change the landscape of WWE.
In this exclusive preview, we break down everything you need to know before tuning into WWE RAW Live on April 28th, 2025—from confirmed matches and surprise appearances to how you can stream the event online.
🔥 Main Event Preview: A Clash of Titans
1. World Heavyweight Championship Showdown
Seth “Freakin” Rollins (c) vs. Drew McIntyre – No Disqualification Match
The rivalry between Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre has reached brutal new heights. After McIntyre cost Rollins a match against Gunther two weeks ago, the Visionary demanded retribution. RAW General Manager Adam Pearce made it official: a No DQ match for the World Heavyweight Championship.
- Why This Matters: McIntyre has been on a warpath since WrestleMania, claiming that Rollins “stole” his moment. With no rules in place, expect chairs, tables, and possibly even a surprise interference.
- Prediction: Rollins retains, but McIntyre leaves him broken—setting up a potential Last Man Standing match at WrestleMania Backlash.
2. Women’s World Championship Contender’s Match
Becky Lynch vs. Rhea Ripley – Winner Faces Liv Morgan at WrestleMania Backlash
Liv Morgan shocked the world when she dethroned Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 41, but Ripley wants her title back. First, she must go through Becky Lynch, who has her own claim to the championship.
- Key Storyline: Ripley has been dominant, but Lynch’s resilience makes this a toss-up. Will “The Man” prove she’s still the top star, or will “The Eradicator” bulldoze her way to another title shot?
- Prediction: Ripley wins via interference from Dominik Mysterio, setting up a heated rematch with Liv Morgan.

3. Gunther vs. Sami Zayn – Intercontinental Championship
Gunther has been an unstoppable force since reclaiming the IC Title, but Sami Zayn has vowed to “bring honor back to the championship.” After weeks of mind games, this could be Zayn’s last shot.
- What to Watch For: Will Kevin Owens get involved? Or will Gunther’s Imperium stable ensure another dominant victory?
- Prediction: Gunther retains, but Zayn’s underdog story isn’t over yet.
4. Judgment Day’s Next Target
Finn Bálor, Damian Priest, and JD McDonagh have been running rampant on RAW. Rumors suggest they’ll call out a mystery opponent—could this lead to a returning superstar? (Edge? AJ Styles?)
5. Bron Breakker’s Path of Destruction
The next big thing in WWE, Bron Breakker, has been demolishing mid-card talent. Will he finally step up to a major name like Bobby Lashley or Brock Lesnar?
