The July 6 edition of Monday Night Raw, dubbed "Championship Monday" by General Manager Adam Pearce is set to significantly shape the card for the upcoming WWE SummerSlam. Three championship matches have been officially announced for the show, which will emanate from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois, and stream live worldwide on Netflix.
Sami Zayn will defend his WWE Championship against Cody Rhodes. Rhodes earned his rematch by defeating Jey Uso in a No. 1 Contender's Match. This title bout was announced on WWE SmackDown on July 5.
Adam Pearce confirmed two additional championship contests via social media. Raquel Rodriguez, who defeated Maxxine Dupri on the previous Raw, earned a Women's Intercontinental Championship opportunity. Her match against reigning champion Sol Ruca will take place on July 6. The World Tag Team Titles will also be up for grabs as Austin Theory and Bron Breakker receive their rematch against Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins.

In a surprising development, 2026 King of the Ring winner Oba Femi has passed up his guaranteed world title shot at SummerSlam. Femi will face Brock Lesnar inside Hell in a Cell. Femi is scheduled to appear live on July 6 to address his decision.
Seth Rollins has secured a shot at Roman Reigns and the World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins is set to kick off the broadcast on July 6, four weeks out from his clash with Reigns.
There has been no official announcement regarding a CM Punk return to WWE programming, though rumors suggest he may appear in his hometown of Chicago.
