WWE Raw Results (4/6/26): CM Punk Cuts Wild Promo, Lesnar And Femi Brawl, Stephanie Vaquer Takes Out Liv Morgan

There are only two episodes of WWE Raw left on the Road to WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.
Last week, WrestleMania plans for Seth Rollins came into focus as he was viciously attacked by Gunther during the show. Gunther and Rollins will likely meet in a singles match at WrestleMania, but Rollins will be on hand for Raw and will open the show this week to directly address Gunther's attack.
What will Rollins have to say to Gunther following the beating? Will Rollins give an update on his physical state ahead of his WrestleMania showdown with Gunther? How will The Career Killer respond? All of that will iron out on this week's episode of WWE Raw.

Announced matches for the show this week include JD McDonagh vs. Finn Balor, Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky vs. Michin and B-Fab, and Austin Theory vs. LA Knight. At WrestleMania, Balor will take on his former friend and Judgment Day faction member Dominik Mysterio in a match. Balor will look to build some momentum against another Judgment Day member in McDonagh.
As for Ripley, she'll get her hands on Michin and B-Fab, who attacked her for Jade Cargill on SmackDown. Ripley faces Cargill for the WWE Women's Championship at WrestleMania, but she'll team with her friend, Iyo Sky, to get revenge for the previous attack.

In other women's division action, what will the interaction between Stephanie Vaquer and Liv Morgan be like ahead of their world title match at WrestleMania? The feud between the two women has intensified over recent weeks. With only two weeks to go until WrestleMania, they'll each look to stay ahead of the other this week on the show.
Also, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk, will be on Raw this week. Punk obliterated Roman Reigns as Raw went off the air last week. What will the champion have to say about his own attack ahead of facing Reigns at WrestleMania?
