WWE Raw aired live from the O2 Arena in London on June 22, 2026, featuring a Women's Tag Team Championship match and a World Tag Team Championship change. Lyra Valkyria attacked her partner Bayley after losing to Paige and Brie Bella. The Street Profits defeated The Vision to capture the World Tag Team Championship.

Paige and Brie Bella retained the Women's Tag Team Championship against Bayley and Lyra Valkyria in the opening match. Paige pinned Valkyria with the Rampage to secure the victory. After the match, Bayley embraced Valkyria, who then attacked her with strikes and a Nightwing before officials intervened.

The Street Profits won the World Tag Team Championship from The Vision in the main event. Austin Theory and Bron Breakker defended the titles until Seth Rollins struck Theory with brass knuckles and Joe Hendry returned to chase Logan Paul from ringside. Montez Ford then delivered a frog splash to Theory for the pinfall.

Chad Gable apologized to Alpha Academy members Otis, Akira Tozawa, and Maxxine Dupri backstage. Dupri rejected the apology, stating it was too little and too late, and led Tozawa and Otis away from Gable.

Jey Uso and Oba Femi exchanged promos ahead of their King of the Ring final at Night of Champions. Liv Morgan interrupted IYO SKY's interview and later suggested Raquel Rodriguez target Sol Ruca's Women's Intercontinental Championship.
