WWE Raw rolled into the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, for the final red brand stop before this Saturday’s Royal Rumble. With the road to WrestleMania officially beginning, the stakes were raised with a massive career announcement and a chaotic main event.
The Phenomenal One’s Last Ride
The night opened with a solemn but determined AJ Styles. The former WWE Champion officially announced that 2026 will be his final year in professional wrestling. Styles made it clear he intends to go out on top, challenging CM Punk for one last run with the World Heavyweight Championship.
This led to a high-stakes main event where Styles put his career on the line for a title shot. However, the match ended in a No Contest after interference from Finn Bálor, leaving the World Title picture in chaos heading into the weekend.
Alpha Academy Heading to the Rumble
In the tag team division, Alpha Academy (Otis & Akira Tozawa) shocked the world by winning a frantic Fatal 4-Way match to become the new #1 Contenders for the World Tag Team Championships. They defeated The New Day, Los Americanos, and American Made. They will now face The Usos for the gold at the Royal Rumble.
Bron Breakker Reinstated
