Showbiz
This store originally began as a Showbiz Pizza Place in June 1988 (Actual opening date not found yet) with The Rock-afire Explosion which was from the Milwaukee, WI (7401 Good Hope Rd) location. They opened with the 1988 remodel.

Tux Chuck and Cool Chuck Eras
In around 1991, Raleigh underwent Concept Unification (Keeping the 1988 Remodel), and The Rock-afire was replaced by Munch's Make Believe Band, complete with all of the characters including extras such as Building, Moon, Wink, Pizzacam, and Munch Jr. Chuck E. wore his signature black tuxedo and red derby hat. By the Mid 1990's, the location received the Phase 1 Remodel which involved the removal of elements of the 1988 Remodel such as The Blue & White Awnings, checkers around the store, & neon lights. By 2003; Chuck E, Helen, & Munch had their Latex Masks replaced with Plastic ones. It is unknown of Chuck E at this location ever received the Cool Chuck outfit (He still had the Tuxedo & Derby back in 2003). On June 28 2004, this store along with Greensboro, NC (702-A Pembroke Rd) were bought out by Corporate (Making Fayetteville, NC (511 North McPherson Church Rd) & Wilmington NC (4389 Oleander Dr) the last two Franchised locations in the state of North Carolina).

Avenger Era
In Around 2006-2007, the store received the 2005 update to the 2003 "Cool Chuck" Reconfiguration / Major Remodel Initiative.

By the end of the decade, Jasper & Pasqually also got plastic masks as well.

Munch Jr & Pizzacam were removed by the end of the decade as well (yet again, making Wilmington the last full 3-Stage in North Carolina)

Present Day
Raleigh features a 3-Stage without Prop Characters.

As of August 2022, the store was in the process of getting the 2.0 remodel which involves the removal of the 3-Stage for a Dance Floor & Video Wall. On Monday, August 30 2022, the stage was removed (Making Charlotte, NC (7701 Pineville-Matthews Rd) the state's last 3-Stage and one of the last two in the Carolinas along with Columbia, SC (1775 Burning Tree Dr)). As of May 2023, they have the 2019 Dance Floor remodel.
