Raw Deal - Raw recap for January 26, 2026

"The Phenomenal" AJ Styles heads to the ring to start tonight's show. He brings up Gunther's claim that he will end his WWE career at Royal Rumble, then proclaims that he is not going anywhere. He also make it clear that 2026 will be the year that he retires. Styles says he wants to enjoy retirement along with the fans, especially when John Cena took all of 2025 to say goodbye to do the same, and mentions that there are a lot of people he would love to wrestle one more time. He also mentions that he wants to be world champion one more time. Styles then states that Gunther may be good, but he is not phenomenal. Suddenly, CM Punk shows up and heads to the ring. Punk mentions his twenty-plus year history with Styles and states that there is nothing but respect between them, then wants to know what Styles is doing putting his career on the line against Gunther, especially when the two of them still have a lot of moments to make. He also tells Styles that he has watched his career during their friendship and feels that the stakes are just too high. Styles takes this as Punk thinking he cannot beat Gunther, but Punk says he knows Styles can beat Gunther. Punk says that if Royal Rumble does not go Styles' way, then the two of then cannot square off in a WWE ring. Styles, admitting that he knows that Punk is not coming across in a such a way, says that Punk is being disrespectful, but Punk says he is more selfish than anything. Styles says he can beat Gunther, and he knows that he can Punk. Punk says that if Styles loses, the world will never know for sure, and that leaves him at a loss as to what to do. Styles proposes that they face each other tonight, and if he beats Punk tonight, he will be #1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship if he beats Gunther at Royal Rumble. Punk says that he promised to be a fighting champion, and if they are going to do this tonight, they are going to do this for the championship. He then accepts Styles' challenge for tonight with the title on the line. Both men then shake hands.

Triple H is revealed to be the cover athlete for WWE 2K26's deluxe edition.

The Vision ("The Oracle" Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, Austin Theory) heads to the ring. Paul Heyman introduces The Vision, including Bron Breakker, who will be speaking with General Manager Adam Pearce regarding his suspension. Heyman mentions that Pearce put his hands on Breakker first, which he calls conduct becoming an executive in WWE, and claims that Pearce planted the brass knuckles that he took away from The Vision in last week's match so that Rey Mysterio could use them. He then states that the table has been set and that The Vision welcomes Pearce's presence. Pearce heads to the ring, and Bronson has to hold Breakker back. Pearce says he is not here to make excuses or apologize for wearing his heart on his sleeves, then admits that things got out of hand. He apologizes for putting his hands on Breakker first and states that this will not happen again. He also announces that Breakker is no longer suspended and is in the men's Royal Rumble Match. Heyman thanks Pearce and offers to shake Pearce's hand, then puts Logan Paul, Bronson Reed and Austin Theory in the Rumble as well.

Backstage, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria confront Raquel Rodriguez for yelling for General Manager Adam Pearce as Bayley is on the phone, and that allows Stephanie Vaquer to attack Raquel before Pearce and other officials show up to break the brawl up.

In footage from earlier today, Michael Cole interviews Gunther. Gunther says he has nothing to gain if he beats "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles, but now that he can beat him for his career, he has something phenomenal to gain. He says he is sick of all the "old-timers" overstaying their welcome and chasing one moment after another, proclaiming that those moments belong to him, and that he is not interesting in Styles taking away moments that belong to him. He also states that Michael Cole falls into that category as well and asks Cole how long he will stick around to chase another moment, then says he could end his career right now. Instead, he wants Michael Cole to call his match with AJ Styles at Royal Rumble and proclaim that Styles' career is over. Gunther laughs and says it is going to be great and memorable.

Rhyno beats Shera.

Gia Miller interviews "Inevitable" Ace Austin for Around The Ring. Austin admits his biggest fear is being paralyzed after working hard for many years to have total control over his body. His favorite subject in school (other than gym) was English, as he connected with his teachers and the subject more, with math being his least favorite. Austin's favorite animal is the monkey, and he has always dreamt of owning one he could dress up in costumes and have sit upon his shoulder, though he admits he would not be ready to take care of one right now due to the demands of being a professional wrestler. His favorite food (other than donuts) is ground turkey due to how versatile it can be, especially lean turkey, and he also favors tacos (though he does not use sour cream due to his low-calorie diet).

Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for January 26, 2024

Latin Grammy-winning recording artist Eladio Carrion, best known for his song "RKO," heads to the ring. As he says that tonight will be an amazing night, he then introduces Randy Orton to the ring. Orton says The Bloodline has had "a hell of a run" for the last year, especially since Roman Reigns has been world champion for over 1300 days. He calls his unfathomable, and says nobody can stop The Bloodline except for maybe him. He then says that after the smoke clears tomorrow night, the only number that will matter is 15, for when he beats Roman Reigns, he will be a 15-time world champion. Suddenly, "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles shows up and asks Orton if he is aware there are other people in his masks and asks him if he just looked past him. He says he wanted a match with Solo Sikoa to take his head off, but that match went to LA Knight instead of him. He says that as long as he has been in the WWE, Orton should know better, and after Orton RKO'd him last him, he has a receipt coming, and he will step over him, Roman and LA Knight. LA Knight shows up about as soon as AJ Styles is about to utter him name, and says all Styles has done since he has returned is cried, whined and complained. He also says Paul Heyman lobbied as hard as he could to put him in a match tonight because he sees him as a threat. LA Knight says he will hit Solo Sikoa so hard he will do his father's dance moves, then he will step over Orton, Styles and even Roman to become world champion. As LA Knight leaves, AJ Styles lays Randy Orton out.

Santos Escobar beats Carlito. During the match, Humberto gets on the apron so that Angel can get physically involved, and as Joaquin Wilde and Cruz del Toro brawl with Humberto and Angel, Zelina Vega is attacked from behind by Elektra Lopez. This allows Escobar to win with a schoolkid pin.

Backstage, Paul Heyman speaks with Solo Sikoa on the meaning of "fix," and asks Solo to fix the problem without being merciful. Solo says "Okay." Jimmy Uso is scared by the smirk Solo gives, but Heyman says what was really scary was when Roman Reigns became the Tribal Chief when he saw the opportunity and seized it, and that there is something for Jimmy Uso to seize. He tells Jimmy Uso to enter the Royal Rumble, win the match and challenge and beat Seth "Freakin'" Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship and bring the title back to The Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa).

Backstage, Bianca Belair and Bayley get their Royal Rumble numbers.

Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) head to the ring. Lashley warns The Final Testament (Karrion Kross, Scarlett, Akam, Rezar, Paul Ellering) that they are going to bring the fight before ultimately calling them out. The Final Testament soon make their way to the ring. Scarlett is the only one to enter the ring, which does not impress Lashley, and Montez Ford chalks it up to them being scared, which Lashley and The Street Profits could never be. Paul Ellering says there is no fear in Karrion Kross, and Kross says he sees nothing but frustration and desperation, as Lashley feels like he is not in control when he truly is not. He tells Lashley that he is not getting his fight tonight. Lashley calls Kross a liar for saying they are not fighting tonight, but as he and The Street Profits charge towards The Final Testament, Scarlett blinds Lashley, and The Final Testament overpower all three of them.

Backstage, Jimmy Uso draws his Royal Rumble number, and is disappointed.

Punk says MJF only listens to his podcast because he is a fan, and says leaving and coming back is the best thing he ever did. Punk tells MJF to lace up his boots and face him, and says that MJF cannot realize that his heroes are human beings and that he would rather be himself and fail than be like MJF, talk a big game and never show up. He says that he has made decisions and that he has stood by them, and that the fans love him because he gets back up, tries and fight just like Cleveland and Chicago do. MJF decides to test that by bringing out FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and Wardlow. Suddenly, Punk is attacked from behind by Shawn Spears, and the numbers game takes over, with FTR holding Punk down so Spears can hit him with a chair. MJF dares Punk to get up, and Punk grabs MJF by the scar only to be hit by a right hand from Harwood before Wardlow powerbombs him on the chair. MJF then sits with his legs crossed on top of Punk and tells Punk that his journey will end in the same place where it began, and that he will see him in Chicago.

"Legit" Leyla Hirsch beats Red Velvet with a stack-up pin after countering a kick. After the match, Leyla Hirsch puts Red Velvet in a cross arm breaker, then runs away when Kris Statlander runs into the ring and chases after her.

We hear from The House of Black. Malakai Black says he added insult to injury because the House is built on conflict, and that the fans who want violence and conflict will welcome Brody King as a brother and be thankful for him. Brody King says that PAC denounced the House and will be humbled, and that Death Triangle will beg for salvation, look for the teaching the House taught them, and thank the House, for just like death, the House is inevitable.

Tony Schiavone introduces Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. to the ring. Britt Baker says it has been a while since she has been in Cleveland, Ohio and a little while since she has been in the ring with a microphone, which she says is acclimated to her because CM Punk and MJF could not keep her name out of their mouths. She then mentions her Pro Wrestling Illustrated awards from 2021 and says that since she has won the AEW Women's World Championship, she has had nine singles victories. Britt then says that the women's division was a wasteland and that she turned it into a "Brittopia" when nobody else did, saying that she created the top spot and surpassed the entire roster to become the face of AEW. She says that she has made history since she got here while mocking the Cleveland Browns before saying she is here for the fans and that she will not settle until she becomes Female of the Decade, saying Cleveland has a Baker that they can count on.

Vickie Guerrero and "The Native Beast" Nyla Rose show up. Nyla says she should be TBS Champion, and that she is not because of Ruby Soho getting a fluke victory when she would usually beat her. She then says that she wants Ruby Soho next week.

Orange Cassidy beats Adam Cole in an unsanctioned "lights out" match after planting Adam Cole through the stage off some stage rigging. During the match, Adam Cole pulls out a chair from underneath the ring only to find out that Danhausen is holding onto it.

He says that hard work has now paid off, but now he realizes he has a target on his back. Swann says people are coming from all angles, but he cannot complain and he has some other people to focus on before asking Tommy Dreamer to come to the ring, which Dreamer does.

Suddenly, Sami Callihan shows up and says Dreamer is trying to get himself over as usual while Swann embarrassed the company by losing to Kenny Omega. Sami says he is the heart and soul of the company and that he deserves a title shot. Chris Bey suddenly shows up and says February 13th is his 25th "Birth-Bey," and says he deserves a title shot, then Moose arrives. Moose says that since everyone is too scared to face him for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, he has decided to interjected, and says that Swann has yet to beat him and has given him a title opportunity, but Swann says he passed it up and that it is him and Dreamer. Suddenly, Willie Mack runs into the ring and sends Sami, Bey and Moose running with a couple of Stunners. Sami then turns the lights off, and when they come back, Ken Shamrock is in the ring. Shamorck goes on the attack, and the numbers game catches up to Dreamer, Willie and Swann.

After asking this mystery person if he can count on them, Rohit says the road to redemption now is and that it is time to take back what belongs to him.

We hear from Tony Schiavone and Tony Khan in another paid ad. Khan says he cares for the fans to make AEW what to watch on Wednesday, and says he, Matt Hardy, Jerry Lynn and Private Party (Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy) were all in the zone and that Private Party are in line for the Impact World Tag Team Champonships. Schiavone then runs down the card for tomorrow night's AEW Dynamite, and Khan promises it will be a great shot before stating that The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) will be facing the music even with Kenny Omega on their side at Beach Break.

Kiera and Tasha brag about being Knockouts Tag Team Champions, with Tasha saying they would reach the top and that they did it. The festival - which referee Brandon Tolle calls "a dumpster fire" - leaves a bit to be desired, as the catering is just meals in plastic trays. John E. Bravo notices that the cheese is still in the wrapper, then champagne is handed out. Alisha drinks the champagne only to spit it out, then Kiera and Tasha notice a man dressed in a cheap Marshmallow Man costume. Tasha thinks this is Fallah Bahh, but this person unmasks only to reveal she is Nevaeh. Havok then gets in the ring and clotheslines Kiera.

He says "Mission accomplished," then says he is on to his next mission: cashing in his shot at the ROH World Championship. Suddenly, Kenny King shows up, and says that in the new Ring of Honor, mediocre dude after mediocre dude shows up and cries because they want to be champion. He tells him and a few others to put their title shots as well as the Philadelphia Eagles' chances of entering the Super Bowl into the garbage, and says that he was the last man on Earth to pin Jay Lethal. After a few replays of the victory that is zoomed in to hide the fact that he used the ring ropes for leverage, he says that he got screwed out of his championship opportunity. Kenny then says he can see through Gordon and calls him a phony after how badly Bully Ray beat him up in the past as well as calling Gordon "a punk-ass weekend warrior who was only brave enough to join the reserves."

Before the next match, Matt Taven asks Villain Enterprises ("The Villain" Marty Scurll, Brody King, PCO) why they think they deserve a shot at the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships, as they have never even teamed up in ROH and have yet to beat anybody.

Matt Hardy says he has received a premonition where he must revert to his Egyptian roots and become the King in Gold after seeing a vision of team after team and title after title coming into their hands as they start a tag team revolution. The DCC ("The Cowboy" James Storm, Bram, Eddie Kingston) show up, and Storm says that the only revolution he sees is The DCC. Next week is Open Fight Night, and they can call out anyone they want, but this week, they plan to prove why they're called the Death Crew Countil. Decay (Rosemary, Abyss, Crazzy Steve) show up, and Crazzy Steve says they welcome the opportunity of Matt Hardy's premonition of a tag team revolution, and challenge The Broken Hardys for the tag titles. Matt Hardy grants them their challenge, and we have a three-way dance for the tag team titles.

The Broken Hardys ("Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero) retain the TNA World Tag Team Championships against The DCC (Eddie Kingston and Bram) and Decay (Crazzy Steve and Abyss).

Drew Galloway says he's going to tell us what he's going to do with the Impact Grand Championship in the ring...

Laurel Van Ness and Braxton Sutter are at a restaurant. Not only is Laurel really into Braxton, she's also pretty bossy.

Drew Galloway shows up. He's back and a changed man, and he wants the Impact Grand Championship to mean something. Next week is Open Fight Night, but this week is his Open Fight Night and he issues an open challenge for the title. Moose shows up, and says he's going to get in the ring, get everyone pumped, beat the hell out of him and take back the Impact Grand Championship.

Drew Galloway retains the Impact Grand Championship after Moose inadvertently pushes him into the referee, allowing him to hit a second low blow prior to a Future Shock DDT.

At the referee, Laurel Van Ness talks about how her daddy helps her get what she wants while also badmouthing Allie. Braxton Sutter, obviously not interested in this dinner date, drinks the wine that Laurel bossed restaurant staff for earlier...from the bottle.

Rosemary retains the TNA Knockouts Championship against Jade in a Monster's Ball Match. Gail Kim shows up to check on Jade after the match, then Rosemary spits purple mist into her face.

As Braxton Sutter gets the check for the date, it is obvious that Laurel Van Ness is the only person enjoying the date.

We hear from Caleb Konley, the newest addition to the X Division.

DJ Z retains the TNA X Division Championship against Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, Marshe Rockett and Caleb Konley. After the match, Gregory Shane Helms and Trevor Lee attack DJ Z's leg with a steel chair to try to re-injure it.

Backstage, Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards talk about the main event with Lashley. Eddie Edwards says he has to face Lashley on his own to prove that he can do it by himself. Davey Richards has a sour look on his face.

"Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero talk about Open Fight Night and go through possible opponents with the help of Vanguard-1. Matt gets a premonition of the person Jeff will face next week, but he does not reveal who it is.

Lashley beats Eddie Edwards 3-2 in a 30-minute Iron Man Match after fighting through a guillotine choke from Eddie Edwards in the last seconds of the match to win the TNA World Heavyweight Championship for a fourth time.

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for January 26, 2016

Jeff Hardy is in the building. He's prepared to confront his brother Matt Hardy after last week.

Jeff Hardy heads to the ring. He has seen last week's main event, and he is sickened by what happened. He calls out Matt Hardy, saying that he wants answers. Matt's new music hits, and "Big Money Matt" shows up late to tick Jeff off. Reby Sky also shows up, as does Tyrus, who is holding baby Maxwell. Reby says Jeff abandoned Matt when he became "a redneck Evil Knievel." After Reby turns her back on Jeff and the crowd, Jeff makes it clear that there a lot of bitches in the ring. Matt says that he simply took Reby's advice: stop giving, start taking. As he keeps saying that Jeff is standing in his shadow, Jeff tells him just how appalled he is. Matt says that it might as well be time for the two Hardys to go their separate ways. Jeff Hardy says he stands by calling the now-chanted-for Ethan Carter III the best wrestler on the planet, simply because he won the World title fairly. Jeff, now medically clear, then says he wants to be the first person that Matt defends the title against. Matt grants him that match, saying he loves his brother, but that he will wash his hands of any and all guilt stemming from what he does to his brother tonight.

The TNA locker room is all abuzz about Feast or Fired.

The Feast or Fired Match takes place. Grado, Drew Galloway, Eli Drake and "The Cowboy" James Storm all get briefcases.

Jeff Hardy talks with Kurt Angle backstage, and tells him that he's annoyed with Reby Sky being in Matt's ear. Angle tells him he's doing the right thing, and that he's got his back tonight.

Tigre Uno retains the TNA X Division Championship against Mandrews and DJ Z. After the match, Gregory Shane Helms shows up again, saying that TNA was built from and defined by the X Division, and that it will come to prominence once again. He then tells Tigre Uno he has one more week to decide if he's ready to defend his title one last time, and Tigre Uno says yes. The match between the two of them is official for next week, and Helms says that Tigre Uno's time as X Division Champion is over.

Awesome Kong talks with the rest of The Dollhouse (Rebel, Jade, Marti Bell) to get them pumped for tonight.

Eli Drake and Jessie Godderz talk backstage. Eli Drake is afraid this might be his last night in TNA. Jessie tells him to open the briefcase early, but Eli Drake isn't quite so sure if he should.

Kurt Angle confronts Matt Hardy, and tells him that he's making a mistake with his actions and behavior as of late. Matt says he's creating something special from this title reign, but Angle says he's doing nothing but destroying. Matt warns Kurt not to get involved tonight, or else he's going to get hurt.

Awesome Kong destroys Velvet Sky. Madison Rayne makes the save, but gets jumped by The Dollhouse (Jade, Rebel, Marti Bell). Kong then hits Velvet with a splash from the top rope.

The Wolves (Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards) are missing their TNA World Tag Team Championships, thanks to Crazzy Steve and Abyss. Tonight, they settle the score...and they want their belts back.

The opening of the Feast or Fired cases takes place...well, one of them, anyway. Maria Kanellis and "The Miracle" Michael Bennett show up, but Drew Galloway makes it clear that nobody is here to see him. Bennett says there will be repercussions for insulting him again, and the two of them leave. Eli Drake gets the King of the Mountain title shot.

When The Wolves (Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards) call out Crazzy Steve, they get a girl who looks shockingly like him who says "Riddle me this, riddle me that. We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad. Decay...decay...decay." Crazzy Steve then shows up, followed by Abyss. This soon starts a brawl which takes place during the commercial break.

The Wolves (Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards) ends when Crazzy Steve spits red mist into Davey Richards, followed by purple mist into Davey's face by the mystery girl. The gruesome threesome of Crazzy Steve, Abyss and the mystery girl then go on the attack.

James Storm gets a shot at the TNA World Tag Team Championships. Drew Galloway gets a shot at the TNA World Championship. Grado is fired from TNA.

Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy is about to happen when Eric Young shows up and expresses his displeasure with Jeff getting a World title shot. As he does, Bram attacks Jeff from behind, and Eric Young adds to the numbers game. Matt Hardy and Reby Sky watch from outside the ring, then Beer Money ("The Cowboy" James Storm and Bobby Roode) make the save. Crazzy Steve and Abyss show up, but Beer Money quickly take care of them and take their fight to the back. Matt Hardy then gets back into the ring, then Kurt Angle shows up and confronts Matt only to be attacked from behind by Tyrus. Matt Hardy then smacks Angle in the head with the TNA World Championship. Matt Hardy then walks away as Jeff Hardy fights off Bram and Eric Young, but Jeff is put through a table with an Eric Young piledriver.
