Professional wrestling fans are preparing for a massive day of content on December 14, 2026, as WWE prepares to broadcast two separate editions of Monday Night Raw.
The promotion is scheduled to hold a daytime episode at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia, while the evening features the inaugural John Cena Classic, “according to reports from Sacnilk.”
The John Cena Classic will take place at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex near Orlando, Florida, and will stream live on Netflix, “as detailed by Bleeding Cool.”
John Cena, who currently holds the record with 17 world championships, recently used his platform on SmackDown to expand the tournament roster.
During the program in Sunrise, Florida, Cena officially invited Charlotte Flair to participate, noting her potential to eventually surpass his historic championship record, “as documented by Wrestlezone.”
Following a complaint from the group Fatal Influence, Cena also extended an invitation to the faction to join the event.
These performers will join previously announced participants Cody Rhodes and Zilla Fatu, who were confirmed earlier in November.
The unique format of the John Cena Classic will feature a mix of talent from Raw, SmackDown, and NXT, with Club WWE members given the power to vote for the winners.
This interactive approach represents a significant departure from traditional wrestling storytelling, “as noted by Forbes.”
The following night, December 15, the same Florida venue will host a Worlds Collide event themed around the film Avengers: Doomsday.
Fans have the option to purchase two-day combo tickets for the back-to-back weekend events, “according to official WWE announcements.”
With the roster split across two continents, the double-header is expected to provide approximately four to five hours of wrestling action for the global audience.
