<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center">RAW Results (Jan. 19)</h2>



Gunther / Styles Promo: Gunther opened the show, gloating despite chants accusing him of tapping out to AJ Styles. After declaring for the Royal Rumble, Gunther rejected Styles’ challenge unless Styles put his career on the line, demanding an answer by night’s end.



Women&#8217;s Intercontinental Championship: Becky Lynch (c) def. Maxxine Dupri. Natalya, who made her return and was in Dupri&#8217;s corner, assisted Lynch during the closing stretch, allowing Becky to retain with Manhandle Slam. Afterward, Natalya turned on Dupri, brutalizing her and locking in the Sharpshooter.



Announcement: Jey Uso came out through the crowd and announced that he&#8217;s entering the Royal Rumble match.



Rey Mysterio, Penta &amp; Dragon Lee def. Logan Paul, Bronson Reed &amp; Austin Theory. Chaos peaked when Paul Heyman’s brass knuckles backfired, allowing Mysterio to strike Austin Theory. Penta followed with the Mexican Destroyer to secure the win as Adam Pearce kept order at ringside.



Backstage: Adam Pearce was stopped by Paul Heyman, who ominously hinted Pearce’s time was running out. Heyman urged him to answer a call, leaving Pearce visibly unsettled as his phone rang.



Judgment Day Attacks RHIYO: Rhea Ripley &amp; Iyo Sky celebrated as Women’s Tag Champions and announced plans to enter the Royal Rumble after their upcoming defense. The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Roxanne Perez) interrupted, with Morgan sowing distrust before the faction ambushed Ripley, igniting chaos to close the segment.



Backstage: Bayley reassured Lyra Valkyria, telling her she never let her down. The two bonded over frustration, then shifted to optimism, excited about the possibility of one of them winning the Royal Rumble.



El Grande Americano def. Je’Von Evans. Both men traded fast-paced counters and athletic offense early. However, Evans was ruled medically unable to continue due to an arm injury, giving Americano the victory by forfeit.



Backstage: Adam Pearce confronted Paul Heyman and The Vision, ordering Bron Breakker to appear next week as Logan Paul mocked Pearce. Later, AJ Styles accepted the stakes, and Pearce officially set Styles vs. Gunther at the Royal Rumble with Styles’ career on the line.



Backstage: Asuka berated a shaken Kairi Sane for costing them the titles, comparing it to Iyo Sky abandoning her. Sane apologized, pledging loyalty and vowing to help Asuka win the Royal Rumble.



WWE World Heavyweight Championship: CM Punk (c) def. Finn Bálor. Punk and Bálor delivered a hard-hitting, evenly matched main event. Bálor survived GTS and landed Coup de Grace, but Punk ultimately connected with a second GTS to retain the World Heavyweight Title. Post-match, both men embraced as a sign of mutual respect as the show went off the air.
