4 things that could happen on WWE RAW before Night of Champions - 37-year-old star returns, former MITB winner vows to become the new champion
The go-home episode of WWE RAW before Night of Champions 2023 will be aired live from the Giant Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania, tonight.
The company has announced that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn will join forces with a mystery partner to take on Imperium in a tag match on tonight's show.
Furthermore, Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus will feature in a contract signing segment to stamp an official status for their WWE Night of Champions match, while Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar will be under the same roof once again before their high-profile clash at the upcoming premium live event.
On that note, let's take a look at four things that could happen in the show.
#4. Seth Rollins vows to become the new World Heavyweight Champion at WWE Night of Champions
Seth Rollins has reportedly joined the cast of ‘CAPTAIN AMERICA 4.’

The previous episode of WWE RAW saw Seth Rollins feature in a special interview segment with Corey Graves. Given the former WWE Champion is currently busy shooting for the new Captain America movie, he is unlikely to feature on tonight's show.
However, fans can expect WWE to air the second part of his interview with Graves on WWE RAW tonight. The Visionary could hype up his upcoming match against AJ Styles at Night of Champions before vowing to become the new World Heavyweight Champion at the event.
#3. Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus get involved in a physical confrontation on WWE RAW

Tonight's episode of WWE RAW will feature a contract signing segment between Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus for a match at Night of Champions. However, expect things to turn chaotic sooner rather than later during the segment.
Given the recent bad blood between the duo, fans can expect The Man and The Quintessential WWE Diva to fire verbal volleys at each other. The company could further spice things up by having the duo get involved in a physical confrontation during the segment.
#2. Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes engage in another brawl

Following a controversial loss at Backlash, Brock Lesnar will lock horns with Cody Rhodes in a rematch at WWE Night of Champions. The duo, however, will be in the same building tonight just days before their scheduled clash.
Given that, another potential brawl could break out between the duo on tonight's episode of WWE RAW. This would not only act as an appetizer for their clash at Night of Champions but also grab a lot of eyeballs.
#1. Drew McIntyre returns
Imagine if Sami and KO’s mystery partner was Drew McIntyre https://t.co/JCfG40ksqa
Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn will find a partner of their choice to take on Imperium in a 3-on-3 tag match on WWE RAW. While Matt Riddle or Mustafa Ali look likely to be revealed as their mystery partner, WWE could throw a curveball at us by having Drew McIntyre return and join forces with the babyfaces.
The Scottish Warrior has been off WWE TV since WrestleMania 39 reportedly due to creative differences. However, he recently teased his involvement in the high-profile tag match on social media. Hence, the odds of WWE revealing McIntyre as Zayn and Owen's mystery partner can't be ruled out.
