The August 3 edition of WWE Raw will serve as the post-SummerSlam 2026 episode will all the fallout from ‘The Biggest Party of the Summer.’
Wanting to start things anew on the red brand, WWE could bring in some new signings to Raw on this post-SummerSlam episode.
From those getting called up to the WWE main roster to those needing a fresh scenery from SmackDown, these new signings will be looking to make an impact on Monday nights moving forward.
Here are seven new potential signings on WWE Raw After SummerSlam 2026.
7. Big Cass
Over the past few weeks, WWE has aired a series of vignettes going over the past and talking about the return of Big Cass.
After being released eight years, Cass has been on a journey of addiction, recovery and redemption that has seen him reestablish himself in the industry.
The former Big Bill will be looking to make his presence felt and has what it takes to become a bigger star on Monday Night Raw.
Cass signing with WWE Raw makes for another potential name that can add some value to the roster in a major way coming out of SummerSlam 2026.
6. Enzo Amore
Speaking of Big Cass, Enzo Amore has been another former WWE star rumored to be brought back to the company.
Over the past eight years, Amore has tried to continue to build his name in the wrestling business in different promotions like MLW and 4th Rope.
Considering his gift of gap, Amore feels like someone who could enhance Big Cass upon his return to WWE.
Whether it be as his manager or tag team partner, Enzo is a key component for what the company can achieve with Cass on this stint in WWE following his debut on the Raw After SummerSlam 2026.
5. Tatum Paxley
On the June 30 episode of WWE NXT, Kelani Jordan defeated Tatum Paxley. Post match, Reina Volcan made her debut by attacking Paxley as well.
This loss and attack comes off the heels of Paxley losing the NXT Women’s North American Championship to Zaria and then coming up short in their rematch at Great American Bash 2026 as well.
Since the attack by Volcan, fans have not seen Tatum appear on WWE NXT TV in the past few weeks.
Having been absent for a number of weeks, Paxley could reemerge on the WWE Raw After SummerSlam 2026 where there might be a reunion in store with Lyra Valkyria that might lead to trouble for the Raw women’s scene.
4. Jordynne Grace
At the start of 2026, Jordynne Grace was called up to the WWE main roster and became a member of the Friday Night SmackDown roster.
Despite immediately thrusting herself into contention for the WWE Women’s Championship, Grace now finds herself lost in the shuffle, having not appeared on the blue brand in months.
‘The Juggernaut’ is someone who should be highlighted thanks to her experience, strength, look and presence that has helped to be recognized as one of the best women’s wrestlers in the world today.
With her lengthy absence still ongoing, Grace could regain some momentum on the main roster by signing with Monday Night Raw following SummerSlam 2026.
3. Carmelo Hayes
Another WWE star who has underutilized on Friday Night SmackDown in recent weeks is Carmelo Hayes.
After losing the United States Championship earlier this year, Hayes has been on the hunt for another opportunity at the gold.
However, Hayes might realize that his future could be on Monday Night Raw after being skipped in line by the returning Baron Corbin, who has gone on to defeat Trick Williams to win the U.S. Title at WWE SummerSlam 2026.
For the first time since his main roster callup, Melo might not be able to miss if he makes the jump to WWE Raw coming off the heels of SummerSlam in Minneapolis.
2. Ilja Dragunov
There might not be anyone on the WWE roster who has been more underused in recent months than Ilja Dragunov.
‘The Mad Dragon’ has been considered one of WWE’s most versatile in-ring performers and someone who can be counted on to deliver consistently inside the squared circle.
That is why it is surprising to see Dragunov not compete on Friday Night SmackDown since April.
Considering his skills and ability, Dragunov might just need a change of scenery and move back to Monday Night Raw where his intensity could add a lot to the in-ring product on the red brand moving forward.
1. Lola Vice
For years, Lola Vice has been viewed as one of the top prospects on the WWE NXT roster.
With her distinct look, undeniable charisma and improvement in the ring, there is no denying that Vice seems like a ready made main roster act.
Following her run as NXT Women’s Champion, there should be nothing stopping Vice from achieving her dreams on the main roster.
On Monday Night Raw, Vice would be a much needed addition that can add some new energy to the women’s division following a major debut on the post-SummerSlam 2026 episode.
