Summary
After drawing their lowest rating in the history of Dynamite, AEW tries again on their first Dynamite of 2026. In this AEW Dynamite Review for January 7th, 2026, @JDfromNY discusses the follow up to Mercedes Mone finally losing the TBS Championship last week to Willow Nightingale. Where do they go next with Mercedes, and was it the right time for her to lose that championship?
Also in this episode:
In a "Lights Out Match", Adam Page & Swerve Strickland vs. The Opps (Powerhouse Hobbs & HOOK) as former rivals Page and Swerve team up against Powerhouse Hobbs and HOOK in a violent, no-rules environment, not sanctioned by AEW. Also, Jon Moxley goes one on one with Shelton Benjamin. Jon Moxley, the new Continental Champion, faces Shelton Benjamin in a match where Benjamin aims to earn a future title shot and potentially set up a clash between two factions. Bandido tries to get ready for his AEW World Championship match against MJF by challenging Sammy Guevara. Toni Storm battles Marina Shafir of The Death Riders. And Jack Perry finds friends in Jet Speed after losing his own partner in Luchasaurus to take on Ricochet, and The Gates of Agony.
