The November 9 edition of WWE RAW delivered several major developments ahead of Survivor Series: WarGames 2026, featuring Jacob Fatu’s return, Becky Lynch’s comeback, a confrontation involving Oba Femi and Bron Breakker, and multiple championship announcements.
The show also confirmed important matches for next week’s RAW and the upcoming Survivor Series premium live event.
Jacob Fatu Returns as The Bloodline Targets 946
Jacob Fatu made his long-awaited return to WWE television during the November 9 episode of RAW, joining The Bloodline in a major confrontation involving 946.
The night’s closing segment featured Roman Reigns going one-on-one with Royce Keys. Their confrontation followed an earlier incident in which 946 disrupted the Intercontinental Championship No. 1 Contender’s Match.
Keys arrived alongside security personnel and acknowledged Reigns for honouring his previous commitment. However, he soon revealed that he had additional support waiting in the wings.
The Usos and Solo Sikoa subsequently appeared on the arena’s TitanTron, standing beside 946’s burning truck. Fatu was also spotted with the group, confirming his return after several weeks away from WWE programming.
Reigns initially attempted to handle the situation without assistance. However, Cruz Montana eventually gained the upper hand, prompting The Bloodline to storm the ring. Their arrival forced 946 to retreat through the audience.
Before the broadcast concluded, Reigns issued a challenge for a WarGames showdown, setting the stage for a major confrontation at Survivor Series.
Fatu’s return comes after his absence following an incident on the September 28 edition of RAW, when Jaida Parker struck him with a car during a confrontation involving Keys.
Oba Femi Battles Bron Breakker in Impromptu RAW Match
Oba Femi found himself in the middle of a heated confrontation after coming to the defence of Je’Von Evans and PENTA on RAW.
The segment began with the newly crowned World Tag Team Champions celebrating their victory at Crown Jewel. Their celebration was interrupted when Bron Breakker launched a surprise attack, taking out PENTA with a devastating spear before turning his attention to Evans.
Breakker subsequently demanded a match against Femi, who wasted little time accepting the challenge.
The two powerhouses went head-to-head in an impromptu contest that lasted approximately 12 and a half minutes. Femi showcased his strength by stopping Breakker’s spear attempt before connecting with a pop-up powerbomb.
However, the contest ended in controversy when Logan Paul and Austin Theory interfered, attacking Femi and forcing the referee to disqualify Breakker.
The Vision continued their assault after the bell, but Evans and PENTA eventually returned to even the odds and rescue Femi.
The Ruler had previously played a crucial role in Evans and PENTA’s Crown Jewel triumph, helping them secure the World Tag Team Championships by preventing Bronson Reed from interfering and putting him through a table.
Becky Lynch Returns and Sets Her Sights on Liv Morgan
Becky Lynch made a significant comeback on the November 9 episode of RAW, immediately making her presence felt in the women’s division.
The former champion returned during the tag team encounter featuring IYO SKY against Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez. Lynch’s involvement proved decisive as she connected with her signature moonsault to help SKY secure the victory.
Following the match, Lynch wasted no time making her intentions clear by issuing a challenge to Liv Morgan for the Women’s World Championship.
WWE General Manager Adam Pearce later confirmed that the two women will collide at Survivor Series 2026, with Morgan’s championship on the line.
The announcement officially adds another major women’s championship contest to the November 28 event.
IYO SKY Earns Women’s Intercontinental Championship Opportunity
IYO SKY also received a major opportunity following her performance on RAW.
Adam Pearce announced that SKY will challenge Raquel Rodriguez for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship on the November 16 edition of the red brand.
The championship opportunity comes after SKY managed to pin Rodriguez during their tag team encounter on November 9, giving her a strong case for a shot at the title.
Meanwhile, WWE legend John Cena is scheduled to appear on next week’s RAW. His appearance will be centred around promoting the upcoming John Cena Classic, which is set to take place in December.
