WWE Raw heads to the sweetest place on earth – Hershey, Pennsylvania – just 10 days before Christmas. But the WWE Raw stars will have more on their minds than picking up some last-minute sweet stocking stuffers.

Here’s our WWE Raw preview. WWE Raw airs live on Netflix at 8pm ET from The Giant Center, Hershey, PA.

WWE Raw Match Card (12/15/25)

Women’s Intercontinental Championship: Maxxine Dupri vs. Ivy Nile

Maxxine Makes First Defence

Snickers Trees festive poster girl Maxxine Dupri will make her first defence of the Intercontinental Championship. Ivy Nile boasts a 3-0 record over Dupri, making her a worthy first contender.

But Dupri has developed a new aggression built in the famous Hart Family Dungeon with Natalya. The big question is whether Nattie will accompany her protege to ringside?

“The Vision” For WWE Raw

LA Knight and Rey Mysterio don’t match “The Vision’s” vision for WWE Raw. Both men were viciously taken out last week.

Could this be a new trend from “The Vision”, who have the support of a mystery masked man who definitely isn’t Seth Rollins. With Bron Breakker set to face CM Punk on the first WWE Raw of 2026, surely we are due a face-off.

Raquel Rodriguez took out Nikki Bella and laid down a challenge to Stephanie Vaquer for her Women’s World Championship. We could see that this week.

Finally, The Usos are officially back together and have put the WWE Raw tag team division on notice. A Usos vs. Los Americanos match could be the perfect start for them.
