This week's episode of WWE Raw is set to be a news-making show with three championship matches slated to dominate the night.

First, Becky Lynch will defend her WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship against Maxxine Dupri. Lynch and Dupri have been embroiled in a mini-feud as of late, with Lynch disrespecting Dupri after having already beat enher. Dupri will look for revenge on Lynch this week on WWE Raw.

Also, The Judgment Day will defend their WWE World Tag Team Championships this week. The titles haven't been defended since earlier this summer. Two contenders are coming for the belts. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh will take the team of AJ Styles and Dragon Lee this week.

Most recently, Styles is coming off a loss to John Cena at the WWE Crown Jewel PLE. Can Styles get momentum back on his side and gold around his waist?

Finally, the WWE Men's Intercontinental Championship will be on the line this week, too. Dominik Mysterio successfully defended his championship last week against Penta. This week, he'll face another challenging task. Rusev gets his title shot and has vowed to become champion. Rusev has been on a roll recently with big wins over Sheamus.

This week on Raw marks the first time we'll see Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman since they turned on their Vision leader, Seth Rollins, to close the show last week. Not only will we hear from that trio on this week's show, but there will likely be an update on the status of Seth Rollins.

Is Rollins injured? If so, will he still be the WWE World Heavyweight Champion? We'll find out this week on WWE Raw, as Raw General Manager Adam Pearce will address the Rollins injury, what it means for Raw, and what the future of the championship will be.

WWE Raw Results:

-A recap video aired that showcased what happened with The Vision last week on Raw. After, Adam Pearce stood in the ring and was about to address the fans about the physical status of Seth Rollins.

-Pearce told Bron Breakker -- who was holding the championship belt -- that it wasn't his and he wanted him to hand it over. Breakker told him to respect him and ask nicely.

Heyman then gloated and mocked everyone saying "welcome to Monday Night Raw."

-Dominik Mysterio and The Judgment Day argued backstage. Finn Balor and JD McDonagh asked why Dom got Pearce to make them defend their tag titles.

Jimmy told Jey that they were both in the battle royal and that he was going to fight anyone -- including his brother. Jey was ok with that, but asked Jimmy if they were good too. Jimmy said "yeet."
