Tonight’s edition of WWE Raw will carry added significance, but one familiar face will not be part of the broadcast.
Backstage interviewer Jackie Redmond confirmed on social media that she will miss the February 23 episode at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, citing travel logistics as the reason.
“I won’t be on #WWERAW tonight, for those who have asked. Can’t get there in time,” Redmond wrote. “But I WILL be in LA for Artemi Panarin’s debut with the LA Kings on @NHL_On_TNT Wednesday!”
Redmond reassured viewers that she will return to WWE programming for the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view on February 28 in Chicago.
WWE To Honour AJ Styles On Tonight’s Raw
Her absence comes on a night that is expected to be highly emotional for the company. WWE is set to honour Georgia native AJ Styles, who officially retired at the Royal Rumble in January after losing a “Career Killer” match to Gunther. Styles is advertised to address fans in his home state one final time, bringing a close to a decorated career inside the ring.
The episode will also move the road to WrestleMania 42 forward with the final Elimination Chamber qualifying matches. On the men’s side, Jey Uso, Bronson Reed and El Grande Americano will compete for the last remaining spot inside the chamber. In the women’s division, Iyo Sky, Kairi Sane and Raquel Rodriguez will battle for their place in the six-woman match.
In addition, 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble winner Liv Morgan is expected to announce her WrestleMania opponent, choosing between Jade Cargill and Stephanie Vaquer.
