Brock Lesnar was scheduled to kick off tonights WrestleMania go-home episode of Monday Night RAW but like anything in WWE, those plans arent locked in and could still shift before airtime. WWE already announced several major names for the April 13, 2026 episode, including Roman Reigns responding to CM Punk, appearances from Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi after last weeks wild contract signing brawl, and both GUNTHER and Seth Rollins being in the building ahead of WrestleMania 42. What hadnt been revealed publicly was how the show would actually start. According to Cory Hays of Bodyslam.net, the early internal rundown listed Lesnar as the man set to open the show. That detail gives fans an early look at WWEs direction for the first segment though its important to remember that internal rundowns often change throughout the day. If the plan sticks, Lesnar opening the show would immediately bring intensity to the broadcast. His feud with Oba Femi has already gotten physical, especially after last weeks contract signing turned into a full-blown fight. Starting RAW with Lesnar would make sense if WWE wants to grab attention right away on the final show before WrestleMania. Still, nothing is guaranteed until the cameras go live. WWE has been known to shuffle segments at the last minute, especially on major go-home shows where timing and crowd reactions can change the flow of the night. Monday Night RAW airs live from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California, starting at 8 PM ET, streaming on Netflix as WWE builds momentum heading straight into WrestleMania 42 weekend.
