The Dark Knight Rises - Gotham Wrestling recap for February 15, 2026

Jordan Castle is in the ring to start this week's show. He says that he is providing an act of charity to the fans, and says "The Big Apple" gets its name from how fat the fans are. He then announces that he is providing the first title defense by a man who is more beautiful than Central Park, bigger than the Empire State Building and more significant that the Statue of Liberty: "One in a Million" Maximilien.

"One in a Million" Maximilien retains the UWN Heritage Championship against Ray Jaz by disqualification after he is attacked by "The Greek God" Papadon in order to cost Ray Jaz the Heritage title.

David Marquez interviews The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson) in the ring. Gallows says it is great to be on television tonight and that he has heard that someone has issued a challenge. He accepts The Explosion's (Rex Wallace and Joe Ocasio) challenge and that they will main event tonight. Anderson talks about how they are going overseas over the weekend and touring the world, yet nothing feels better than standing in the ring next to David Marquez.

Backstage, Little Guido is confronted by "The Greek God" Papadon, who says that he does not appreciate the favoritism he is giving Ray Jaz and wants to know where his title shot. Guido puts Papadon in a match with Drew Gulak.

Sebastian Amor beats "Hollywood" Nick Dos Santos.

Before the next match, "D-Man" Dan Parker says he is tired of "amateur honor" on Gotham Wrestling and states that the ring announcer did not even get his name right and that he will be fired.

"D-Man" Dan Parker beats Brett Ryan Gosselin and VSK in a three-way match after VSK hits Gosselin with a top rope frog splash only for Dan Parker to pull VSK out of the pin and pin Gosselin for the win.

Backstage, Bobby Fish says his hamstring is much better and on the mend, then announces that he will be back in the ring not too long from now. Suddenly, Gentleman Jervis suddenly shows up and hands Bobby Fish some invisible flowers.

We see a vignette for Live Danger, who are coming to Sunday Night Slam live on March 8th.



Leo Sparrow guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Greek God" Papadon beats Drew Gulak following the distraction by Leo Sparrow. After the match, Ray Jaz gets in the ring and hits Papadon with a double leg takedown, and referees and security ahve to help both men back. Members of the locker room also have to get involved, and Ray Jaz starts slamming other people just to get to Papadon. Little Guido shows up and says that if both men want to go so badly, then they will go one-on-one in a Mulberry Street Fight next week.

The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson) beat The Explosion (Rex Wallace and Joe Ocasio).

The Dark Knight Rises - Gotham Wrestling recap for January 11, 2026

Ray Jaz beats Joey Conway with a frontflip off the ring apron into a backslide pin.

Backstage, Samira interviews Karl Fredericks (formerly Eddy Thorpe in NXT). He wants to prove that he is worthy of a shop at the UWN World Championship, and while he and Lord Crewe have shared locker rooms, they have never shared a ring. He says that he will get the win and do what he came here to do.

We see a video package of 5150 (Danny Limelight and Slice Boogie) winning the UWN Tag Team Championships. 5150 will be coming to Gotham Wrestling next week.

The Explosion (Rex Wallace and Joe Ocasio) beats Manbun Jesus and Deuce Ex Machina.

Backstage, Ray Jaz celebrates getting the first win in Gotham Wrestling history when some guy tells him that what he did is nothing and that "we Greeks" invested wrestling before telling him he does not want to see or hear him.

We see "Touch Base w/ Keynote Kevin" in someone's Google app and the words "In two weeks."

Drew Gulak is interviewed. Gulak says that ten years after being a UWN tag team champion, it was only right to come back with Gotham Wrestling to find his footing, get back what he lost and build his career back. On the subject of potential opponents, he says there is good talent up and down the card when Leo Sparrow shows up for the next match as soon as Gulak mentions his name.

Leo Sparrow beats Jake Redondo. After the match, Leo Sparrow shoves spinach in Jake Redondo's mouth.

Alex Gracia vs. Big Mama to decide the inaugural UWN Women's Champion is replayed. Big Mama will be coming to Gotham Wrestling next week.

Karl Fredericks beats Lord Crewe. Before the match, Fredericks hands his medallion to a boy in the front row. Later on in the match, Lord Crewe mouths off at the boy. The show ends with Freericks hugging the boy.
