Last week’s episode of Raw streamed live on Netflix from Glasgow, Scotland, and it kicked off with an electric audience voicing their distaste for John Cena and his recent hostility toward fans.
After berating a raucous crowd in Brussels, Belgium back on March 17 (including the now-viral moment he called out a child who was wearing his merch), Cena came back for seconds in Glasgow, referencing the “clueless kid” and his “poor, pathetic face” before vowing to beat Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 and, “ruin wrestling for every fan, for every wrestler, for everyone.”
Today, streaming live from the O2 Arena in London, UK, Cena and Rhodes will be face-to-face once again. After Rhodes appeared ready to throw down in the middle of the ring last week until Cena walked away, who knows how the situation might escalate.

In addition to Cody Rhodes and John Cena facing off, here’s what to expect:
The match between Gunther and Jimmy Uso comes after Jimmy defended his brother Jey by delivering a thunderous slap to The Ring General last week. As for the Women’s World Championship match — the winner leaves with the gold belt and a match-up against Bianca Belair at WrestleMania.
Aside from superstars, there will be some celebrities in the building, many of whom you’ll recognize from your favorite Netflix shows. The March 31 Raw guests include Charlie Brooker (Black Mirror), Peter Serafinowicz (Million Dollar Secret), and Jay Lycurgo (Peaky Blinders).
After Dominik Mysterio and Carlito got Penta disqualified, they recruited him to The Judgment Day, instructing him to assault Bron Breakker with a steel chair as a sort of initiation. Penta ultimately decided against this, instead attacking Mysterio, before ultimately being overpowered, leaving The Judgment Day (Dom, Carlito, and Finn Bálor) standing victorious.
How will the fallout from that clash spill into tonight’s episode? We’ll find out soon.
This week’s episode of Raw starts at 3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT.
