WWE News: New Universal Title Match Now Set For Royal Rumble
Brock Lesnar has a new Royal Rumble challenger!
Now that Braun Strowman is officially out of the Universal Championship Match at Royal Rumble on January 27th (more on that here), we needed a new challenger to step up to the plate and that would be determined tonight on RAW (keep up with it all with Mitchell’s Live RAW Report).
After John Cena, Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin and Finn Balor all got Mr. McMahon’s ear with regards to getting the opportunity, The Chairman would make a Fatal 4-Way tonight with the winner earning the opportunity. While a Fatal 4-Way Match with the likes of Cena, McIntyre and Corbin all involved was a tough enough task that even Vince would question he could pull of, Balor would be forced into action prior to that against Jinder Mahal just to hang onto that spot.
Finn would be victorious, but banged up as it came time for the main event and all the “beef” in the match Mr. McMahon referenced earlier in the night would dominate the majority of the match with Cena, Corbin and McIntyre all having chances at getting a win. The resilient Balor would fight his way back into it though, kicking out after the opportunistic former-constable nearly reaped the benefits of Cena delivering a second rope Attitude Adjustment.
In the end, Finn would take advantage of an opening and hit Cena with a Coup De Grace, getting the three count and a shot at Brock Lesnar’s Universal Championship:

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
