Watch WWE 'Monday Night Raw' Live Stream Online 1/11/16: Brock Lesnar Returns!

The January 11, 2016 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will take place inside the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, and tonight will feature the return of Brock Lesnar as we head toward the Royal Rumble in two weeks! The show will air on the USA Network at 8 p.m. Eastern, but if you can't watch there, try here or here - both of these streaming provider links broadcast free live streams but may require downloading a torrent.

Last week, Vince McMahon announced that Roman Reigns would defend his WWE World Heavyweight Championship against 29 other Superstars in the 30-man Royal Rumble match! The title has been the prize in the Rumble match just once before: in 1992, when Ric Flair came in at No. 3 and competed for more than an hour to win the vacant title. That was one of the most prolific and iconic in-ring performances in wrestling history, so we'll be truly lucky if WWE can create that magic again.

Reigns will need to deliver a message tonight to Vince and Co., and we'll need to know if Reigns will be the first man in the match.

So far, these are the 10 wrestlers who have been officially announced for the 30-man Royal Rumble match:

- Roman Reigns

- Big Show

- Braun Strowman

- Bray Wyatt

- Chris Jericho

- Curtis Axel

- Dolph Ziggler

- Erick Rowan

- Luke Harper

- Ryback

With just 13 days left until the Royal Rumble occurs in the Amway Center in Orlando, WWE needs to establish the rest of the card. The good thing about the Rumble is that the company doesn't need many other matches around it, but they do still need some undercard bouts to make the pay-per-view worthwhile, which is a tricky task this year because so many terrific members of the roster, including John Cena, are injured.

WWE Intercontinental Champion Dean Ambrose has been locked in battles with Kevin Owens for several weeks, and that could definitely run through the Rumble if need be. WWE Divas Champion Charlotte is now fighting her friend Becky Lynch, a story that could also have some life in it. The New Day could defend the WWE Tag Team Championship during the pay-per-view, or they could all participate in the Royal Rumble itself.

And finally we have the specter of Brock Lesnar, who has appeared at two house shows since he was last on TV but has not truly made his presence felt yet. That all changes tonight when he returns to hopefully announce his plans for the Rumble. Will he be one of the 30 men in the match, or does he have another plan?
