Those Dynamite Kids - Dynamite recap for January 7, 2026

Jim Ross returns to the commentary table to start tonight's show.

In backstage footage from earlier today, Renee Paquette announces that JetSpeed ("The Jet" Kevin Knight and "Speedball" Mike Bailey) have been brutally attacked backstage and that they are not medically cleared to compete. The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona) then shows up with Don Callis, and it becomes readily apparent that a bounty between the two parties made this possible. Jake Something, fresh out of TNA and now going by the name "Jake Doyle," shows up with Mark Davis, and Don Callis says that Doyle is going to be very rich for attacking JetSpeed.



MVP guests on commentary for the next match.

Jon Moxley beats Shelton Benjamin in the final seconds of an AEW Continental Championship Eliminator Match after Shelton gets Moxley in a triangle hold only for Moxley to push forward and pin Shelton's shoulders to the mat for the three count with only five seconds left.



Backstage, Darby Allin is seen looking for PAC.

We see footage of Hiroshi Tanahashi's final match against "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada last Sunday at New Japan Pro Wrestling's Wrestle Kingdom 20.

"Jungle" Jack Perry's new tag team partners are revealed to be The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson).

"Jungle" Jack Perry and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) beat The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona in a trios match. After the match, Jake Doyle and Mark Davis show up and attack Jack Perry and The Young Bucks, with The Demand joining in. All of a sudden, JetSpeed ("The Jet" Kevin Knight and "Speedball" Mike Bailey) make the save despite not being medically cleared. The lights go out, and when they come back on, Andrade is in the ring for the first time in months, and he takes out JetSpeed. FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) and Stokely Hathaway - the latter now in a wheelchair - show up and watch the aftermath of what has happened from the stage.





Renee Paquette introduces Willow Nightingale into the ring for a TBS Championship celebration. Willow is accompanied by Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron. The lights dim as Willow Nightingale says that she feels complete as a double champion, and a light shines on her and Renee as Willow looks forward to the next challenger as well as the things that really matter. Willow celebrates reuniting with both the TBS Championship as well as Kris Statlander, then says that she will take on both TBS and tag team challengers and even wrestle two matches in one night if she has to. Willow expects Mercedes Moné to have something to say and invites Mercedes to the party, and Mercedes shows up dressed in what looks like white funeral clothes. Willow says that there is plenty of celebrate, especially for Mercedes' incredible year in 2025, then celebrates having to dig down deep to become TBS Champion again. Mercedes takes her hat off, revealing disheveled hair and an angry mood as she topples the table and all the food on it. This gets her shoved face-first into cake again, and Willow hits Mercedes with a Doctor Bomb on the cake. The celebration ends with Renee, Statlander, Harley and Willow in a congo line.



Backstage, we hear from Mark Briscoe, who congratulates Willow Nightingale on winning the TBS Championship before stating it is time to get back to work even though he is not doing so well mentally as it has been too long since he whupped a man's ass. He mentions Hechicero being his next challenger and says that while Hechicero is a bad man who can get it done in the ring, the TNT Championship is not going anywhere. The phrase of the day is "Reign and defend."

We hear from Triangle of Madness (Julia Hart, Skye Blue, "The Toxic Spider" Thekla). Thekla says that Kris Statlander is insecure enough to reunite with Kris Statlander, and wants to know if and when she will turn on her friends as well as how long Statlander and The Babes of Wrath (Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron) can last against them.

Bandido beats Sammy Guevara. Immediately after the match, MJF shows up along with Jon Cruz and congratulates Bandido on his win before calling himself a lucha libre legend and a bigger star in Mexico that Bandido will ever be. He still believes that Bandido has potential, and has Jon Cruz translate for him. MJF thanks Jon Cruz for being professional and coming to "a dump like Oklahoma" to do his work. MJF goes on to mention the Dynamite Diamond Rings that he has won, then says that the Dynamite Diamond Ring on Bandido's finger does not belong to him and that if Bandido hands it to him, they can forego the AEW World Championship match. Jon Cruz tries to translate, but Bandido stops him and tells MJF "I can speak English, you stupid son of a bitch!" MJF kicks Bandido in the groin, takes Bandido's ring, and tries to knock Bandido out when Jon Cruz holds Bandido up only for Bandido to duck and Jon Cruz to get struck instead. Bandido then kicks MJF in the groin, takes the ring back, and hits Jon Cruz with a 21-Plex before hitting MJF with another.





We see a video package of Brody King, who says that violence puts food on his family's table and that he does not have to scream to get his point across. Brody King then says that he is coming for the throne.

After the match, Marina Shafir knocks Toni Storm, and Mina Shirakawa rushes in only to get a high boot from Shafir. Luther gets in the ring, and when Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia are about to gang up on him, Orange Cassidy shows up along with Roderick Strong. Shafir, Garcia and Wheeler Yuta retreat. Claudio Castagnoli rises up from the front row, but Garcia and Yuta have to hold him back. Orange then helps Mina and Toni up, much to Luther's chagrin.



Backstage, Renee Paquette interviews PAC. PAC says that he is not here to oblige Darby Allin, as he has wrestled and beaten him twice and that he is the established winner. Darby shows up wanting the match, refusing to take no for an answer, but PAC tells him to jog on. As PAC walks away, Darby sprays him with a fire extinguisher and blinds him before hitting him with his skateboard and threatening to break his ankle with a door. PAC gives him the match as Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castagnoli and Dangiel Garcia rush in. Darby soon retreats.

"Hangman" Adam Page and Swerve Strickland beat The Opps (Hook and Powerhouse Hobbs) by submission in a Lights Out Match after Hangman hangs Hook over the rope rope with a chain.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for January 7, 2019

In memory of "Mean" Gene Okerlund, 1942 - 2019.

The show begins with a brawl between Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley being broken up by referees, officials, security members of the Raw roster and even announcers. The brawl spills out onto the stage, where Seth and Lashley continue brawling. More people have to get involved, but both men are eventually separated.



John Cena shows up to start tonight's show. He welcomes everyone to the show as well as to the road to WrestleMania. He says that on that road, you either step up or get left out, and he refuses to be left out again this year. He plans to step up right now, for on the road to WrestleMania, there is one match where anybody can grab the golden ticket to a main event match at WrestleMania: the Royal Rumble Match. He says that in life, nothing is given away or handed out; every inch much be earned, and he wants to earn that golden ticket. Cena then officially enters himself into this year's Royal Rumble Match. Suddenly, Drew McIntyre shows up, and says that he has waited for his moment for years, and unlike everyone else, he does not care who Cena shares his bed with or about his stupid haircut; all he cares about is his sixteen World championships. He cares that Cena has headlined multiple WrestleManias and that WWE Chairman Vince McMahon called him the greatest, as he agrees with Vince when he says that Cena is the greatest of all time. McIntyre says he has a history of taking out the greats such as The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns), Dolph Ziggler, and Kurt Angle, and that he is the most dangerous man in WWE and that he is coming for Cena. Cena says he was having a great time until now, and says that it is sad that he has heard the same thing every week from every other Superstar to the point that he had to leave so everyone could come up with a different promo. He asks McIntyre what makes him different from anyone else, and McIntyre replies by simply stating that everyone else is all talk and that he will show Cena what he is capable of first-hand. Suddenly, Lio Rush and Bobby Lashley show up, and Lio Rush says that if something is not done about Seth Rollins, he and Lashley will get a lawyer. As Lio Rush says that tonight's show is officially cancelled, Seth Rollins sneaks up on Lio and Lashley to attack the latter, and Dean Ambrose rushes in to attack Lashley. Cena fights off Ambrose, and McIntyre attacks Cena. This leads to a brawl at ringside, and Finn Balor runs in to fight McIntyre in the ring before taking everyone else out with a hands-free tope con hilo.



John Cena, Seth Rollins and Finn Balor beat Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley and Dean Ambrose. After the match, Triple H is seen talking with Bayley and Sasha Banks backstage on the TitanTron. Seth Rollins, noticing this, heads to the back immediately, while John Cena and Finn Balor high-five some front row fans. Backstage, Rollins knocks the cup of coffee out of Triple H and demands Dean Ambrose and the WWE Intercontinental Championship tonight. Triple H says he's got it, and it will be in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. He then says "Welcome back."



WWE honors the life of WWE Hall of Famer "Mean" Gene Okerlund with a ten-bell salute. Afterwards, Hulk Hogan shows up. Hogan says he came out in character because it is how "Mean" Gene would have wanted it, as he loved entertaining the fans more than anything else. We then see a video package celebrating "Mean" Gene Okerlund's life and career. Hogan says that Okerlund was one of a kind, and that he can speak for everybody when he says "Mean Gene...we love you, brother." He says that Okerlund may no longer be with him, but he is always in his heart. As the crowd chants "Thank you, Mean Gene," Hulk looks at the "In Memoriam" picture on the TitanTron and says he knows what exactly he was doing in Heaven and asks the Hulkamaniacs in Heaven "Whatcha gonna do when Mean Gene-O-Mania runs wild on you, brother?"





Bobby Roode and Chad Gable retain the WWE Raw Tag Team Championships against The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) in a Lumberjack Match despite Scott Dawson's foot being on the bottom rope when he is pinned by Chad Gable.

Elias is in the ring. He plays guitar, then says that as he looked back on 2018, he wept at the level of stardom he has and how quickly he had reached it. He dropped a debut album and performed all around the world, and it has brought him here to Orlando, Florida. He then says that if 2018 was great, it is nothing compared to what he has in store for 2019, for on January 27th, he will enter and win the men's Royal Rumble Match. However, as much as he has enjoyed his success, he has enjoyed the failures of Baron Corbin, as he went from being on top of the world as Raw General Manager-Elect to being a joke. He is about to perform a song where he makes fun of Corbin's failures when Corbin shows up, saying nobody can stand another mind-numbing performance from Elias and that nobody knows what is like to have had a job like General Manager-Elect. He says he should have everyone's respect and admiration after all he has done, but nobody gets it or understands and everyone disrespects him and wants him to disappear as a result. He says that won't happen, and like Elias, he will enter the men's Royal Rumble Match and go on to WrestleMania. Elias tells Corbin to shut his mouth before Corbin can say much else.



Baron Corbin beats Elias.



We hear from Dean Ambrose, who asks what the world is coming to before saying he never liked six-man tag team matches due to being "unnatural" and that it hurts him to hurt Seth. He says that he sacrificed everything to take the Intercontinental Championship from Seth Rollins and bring balance back to the WWE, and tonight, he will burn Seth Rollins down no matter where he has to do it.

Braun Strowman shows up. He considers talking on the microphone, but instead, he dares Brock Lesnar to get in the ring. Paul Heyman and Lesnar are seen backstage, and Heyman introduces Lesnar. Heyman says he knows how much money has been spent to hype Lesnar and Strowman's face-to-face confrontation, but the card is subject to change and that if Lesnar were in the ring right now, Strowman would be on his back looking up at him. Lesnar and Strowman smirk, then Strowman says he is waiting in the ring for Lesnar to get in his face like Heyman said he was going to do. He then accuses Lesnar of being a coward, and says Lesnar should thank Heyman for keeping in the back so he won't get these hands. Lesnar hands the WWE Universal Championship to Heyman and heads to the ring to hear what Strowman has to say, with Heyman following close behind. Lesnar circles the ring, then heads back to the back. Strowman tells Lesnar to turn around, and says he will be crowned WWE Universal Champion at Royal Rumble.



Before the next match, Jinder Mahal asks everyone to meditate with him, and asks Alicia Fox to lead the way. Jinder then chews out the front row for not meditating before verbally disrespecting Orlando, Florida. This is interrupted by the entrance of Ember Moon and Apollo Crews.

Apollo Crews and Ember Moon beat Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox.



It's time for A Moment Of Bliss. After announcing that Orlando, Florida will become known as the place where her new segment started, she then introduces tonight's guest, "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey. Ronda says she wants to look forward and not back when asked about her 2018, and says she needs to test her limits with a vengeance. She says one woman has taken her to her limits and is the unsung hero of Raw: Sasha Banks. All of a sudden, Nia Jax shows up making fake vomiting noises, and says Ronda has a girl crush on Sasha before asking if she forgot about her. She says that is Seth Rollins is getting a title rematch, she should get one, too. Suddenly, Sasha Banks shows up and agrees with Ronda, and says she would love to face her for the Raw Women's Championship and teach her how to lose with dignity and class. Nia Jax reminds Sasha she is a 300+ pound Samoan woman who can break her face, and Sasha immediately challenges Nia Jax to a match where the winner gets Ronda when Nia tells her to go to the back of the line.



Sasha Banks beats Nia Jax with the Banks Statement to face "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey for the WWE Raw Women's Championship at Royal Rumble.



Dean Ambrose retains the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Seth Rollins in a Falls County Anywhere after interference by Bobby Lashley. After the match, Lio Rush and Lashley pull a table out from underneath the ring before putting Rollins through it.

We see a video package narrated by Paul Heyman documenting the history of the ECW World Heavyweight Championship from the moment "The Franchise" Shane Douglas threw down the NWA World Heavyweight Championship all the way to Mike Awesome's second and current reign.

Spike Dudley tells Miek Awesome he hopes he is not focused on his gimmick, as he knocked his girlfriend's teeth out. He was the one who was kicked out of The Dudleys due to being too violent. He has been put through everything, and he still got up and fought the next match without being injured. He does not care about winning or losing on Sunday; all he cares about is extreme wrestling and hurting Mike Awesome.

"Judge" Jeff Jones says he has managed Mike Awesome to the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, and asks Spike Dudley who he thinks he is by having his girlfriend come into the ring and hit him with the Acid Drop. He says she made him look ridiculous, and he cannot afford to look ridiculous. Mike Awesome tells Spike that if he has the balls to interrupt his victory celebration, then he can only imagine what he can do to him after he knocked Spike's girlfriend's teeth down her throat.

Lance Storm tells "The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer that tonight will be a big night for him, since he will be in his hometown at the very arena where he and his father watched wrestling and watched the stars passed Tommy by. Tonight, another star will pass Tommy by, and that star is Justin Credible. Justin tells Tommy he wants this between himself and Tommy, and he asks Lance to stay out of the way if Dreamer has him up against the ropes, for if Tommy can beat him, he will be the better man. He says Tommy is not the better man, and tonight, he will demolish every hope that ever crossed his mind and show everyone that he and Lance Storm are guilty as charged.

Danny Doring and Roadkill beat The Dupp Brothers (Bo and Jack Dupp) and Nova and Kid Kash. During the match, Elektra tries to break up a pinfall, but Jazz gets in the ring and brawls with Elektra until Simon Diamond shows up and carries Jazz away.
