WWE Raw May 19: A new ally for The Judgment Day? Finn Balor introduces Roxanne to the faction
The latest addition to the Raw roster, Roxanne, appeared backstage with Finn Balor, who said Dominik Mysterio had been asking for new allies. Balor introduced Perez to the rest of the group, and although she is not officially a member yet, he called her someone they could rely on. Perez even brought gifts to make a good first impression. Chicken nuggets for Dominik and a bag of apples for Carlito.

However, not everyone looked pleased. Raquel Rodriguez seemed unsure about the idea. Dominik also mentioned that Liv Morgan might not be happy when she returns, since she is still away filming her movie in Japan. Balor responded by saying Perez is just an ally for now.
Tensions in the Judgment Day faction
Raquel's body language made it clear she is not fully convinced about Perez being around. With Liv Morgan expected to return soon, things could get more complicated. Liv and Raquel have both been strong voices in the group, and a new face might not be welcome.
It should be everyone's favorite day of the week; It's officially #MondayNightRox !!#WWERaw / @roxanne_wwe pic.twitter.com/f4NMvTpoyo
As Roxanne heads into the Money in the Bank match, her connection with the group could change things. If she performs well and earns trust, she might find herself closer to The Judgment Day circle. For now, she is only an ally. But in WWE, that can change very fast.

WWE SummerSlam 2025 Day 2 Full Predictions: Is John Cena losing the Title, The Rock ‘Final Boss' Arrival, and More
Images via WWE: Cody Rhodes, John Cena and The Rock Night 2 of WWE 's first-ever two-night SummerSlam promises nonstop action, headlined by John Cena vs. Cody Rhodes in a street fight for the Undisputed Title. Naomi defends her Women's World Title against Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky in a Triple Threat. Other major bouts include Solo Sikoa vs. Jacob Fatu in a steel cage for the U.S. Title, Becky Lynch vs. Lyra Valkyria in a last-chance no-DQ match for the Women's Intercontinental Title, and AJ Styles challenging Dominik Mysterio for the men's IC title. Plus, six teams clash in a chaotic 12-man TLC match for the Tag Team Championship. So, let's put on the predictions hat and see what can happen on Night 2 of SummerSlam 2025. WWE Championship Street Fight: John Cena (c) vs. Cody Rhodes This might be one of the most unpredictable matches WWE has booked in years. With John Cena halfway through his retirement tour, and doing it as a heel, there's real intrigue around how it all ends. Will he go out as the hero, turning face one last time as teased on SmackDown when he vowed to show the "real John Cena" at SummerSlam? Or is that all a mind game to throw Cody Rhodes off in the biggest match of his life? There's also a wild-card theory: Rhodes could shock everyone by aligning with a returning Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, turning heel in the process and fully embracing his role as his champion, but in a far darker way. This can come true, especially after he was seen wearing the same sunglasses The Rock once wore. Adding fuel to the fire, Rhodes recently hinted that the offer is still on the table, suggesting an alliance with The Rock could still happen. That said, it's still hard to see Rhodes losing to Cena again after already falling short at WrestleMania 41. One loss was believable and was a necessary step in helping Cena win his 17th WWE Championship. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like When Knee Pain Hits, Start Eating These Foods, and Feel Your Pain Go Away (It's Genius) Click Here Undo However, a second would chip away at the momentum Rhodes has built since toppling Roman Reigns and becoming the top 'babyface'. Creatively and from a business perspective, Rhodes is the clear choice. WWE has invested heavily in making him the guy, and now they need to double down. As for Cena, the focus should be on celebrating his final chapter. He can still deliver memorable moments without standing in the way of the future. Regardless of which path he takes, it seems likely that 'The American Nightmare' will walk out of SummerSlam as a two-time WWE Champion. The only question now is: which version of Rhodes will the WWE Universe get? Prediction- Cody Rhodes beats John Cena to win the WWE Championship Women's World Championship Triple Threat: Naomi (c) vs. Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley After cashing in her Money in the Bank contract to close out Evolution 2, Naomi has dominated the Raw women's division, including her SummerSlam challengers, Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky. As the trio prepares to settle their rivalry in a Triple Threat match, Naomi enters as the unpredictable favorite, with many fans backing her to retain her Women's World title. Still, Ripley and Sky are top-tier babyfaces. Ripley, in particular, has never beaten Sky and will be hungry to change that. Triple Threats are especially risky for champions, as Naomi doesn't need to be pinned to lose her title. That said, Naomi thrives in chaos, as recently evident from her heel run. Her opportunism was visible in the brutal No Holds Barred match against Jade Cargill and the same-night cash-in, giving her the edge. If Ripley and Sky focus too much on each other, Naomi could easily sneak a win and continue her red-hot run. Prediction- Naomi retains her Women's World title against Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky No DQ, No Count-Out Women's Intercontinental Championship Match: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Lyra Valkyria This feud has elevated the Women's Intercontinental title, but it's time for Lyra Valkyria to get her crowning moment. 'The Lady Bird' has earned it and proved that she belongs among the elites. Therefore, she needs the win to cement her status as a star. Moreover, Lynch already has a singles victory over her at Money in the Bank, where Valkyria was forced to raise the Irishwoman's hand to admit that she is better. With the former multiple-time world champion at risk of becoming a nostalgia act, wrestling fans will be hoping that she puts Valkyria over. WWE can't afford to waste this opportunity and should capitalize on promoting a sure-shot mainstay of the women's division. Prediction- Lyra Valkyria beats Becky Lynch to win the Women's Intercontinental title Six-Pack TLC WWE Tag Team Championship Match This match could truly steal the entire show. After chaos erupted during Andrade and Rey Fenix's title shot on SmackDown, GM Nick Aldis made it official: a Six-Pack TLC Match for the WWE Tag Team Championships at SummerSlam. While teams like Fraxiom or Andrade & Fenix could earn their first title win, fans expect the Wyatt Sicks to retain. Every team in this match has either held the titles or been close, making SummerSlam the likely climax of the tag division's six-month chaos. Back at WrestleMania 41, the Street Profits won a classic TLC bout, only to lose the gold to the Wyatt Sicks on July 11. With just over 20 days as champions and only two months back on TV, it's too soon for the Wyatt Sicks to drop the titles. A loss now could stall their momentum and damage their standing in the tag division. So, it is important that they walk out of New Jersey as the title holders. Prediction- The Wyatt Sicks retain their SmackDown Tag Team Titles United States Championship Steel Cage Match: Solo Sikoa (c) vs. Jacob Fatu The Bloodline Saga is now in its 5th straight year and will see Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu clash in a Steel Cage match for the United States Championship at SummerSlam. It is surely a high-stakes rematch after Sikoa dethroned Fatu at Night of Champions with help from Tonga Loa and Talla Tonga. For the unversed, Fatu won the title at WrestleMania 40 against LA Knight, giving his former stable its first singles gold and sparking tension with Sikoa. Things unraveled quickly with Fatu losing trust in Sikoa and costing him the Money in the Bank ladder match. Now, with no allies allowed inside the cage, Sikoa faces his former brother-in-arms in a battle fueled by betrayal. And it seems that WWE will not risk taking off the title too soon from Sikoa, considering it is his first single belt on the main roster. But Fatu rarely loses in singles competition, and a surprise assist from Jimmy or even Jey Uso could shift the odds. Prediction- Solo Sikoa beats Jacob Fatu to retain his United States Championship Intercontinental Championship: Dominik Mysterio (c) vs. AJ Styles Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio is set to defend his crown against AJ Styles in what has been a fun feud to begin with. Though 'Dirty Dom' blindsided Styles on the July 21 episode of RAW and were scheduled to face each other at Night of Champions, the two will finally settle things at SummerSlam. Despite Styles' recent buzz from his TNA Slammiversary appearance, Mysterio's momentum is stronger, especially after receiving a massive pop at AAA. Moreover, his in-ring skill and persona have improved considerably, so the promotion will likely back him to retain his crown. On the other hand, Styles is nearing the end of his in-ring career after signing a one-year WWE extension, and the IC title is the missing piece in the puzzle of his illustrious run. But Mysterio remains one of the hottest names in WWE, drawing heat or cheers wherever he goes. Simply put, a loss won't hurt Styles, but ending Mysterio's reign now would kill his momentum.
