Each offers something fresh. Each offers its own unique dynamics, clash of personalities, and potential for what\u2019s next.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, two-thirds of these matches have a Don Callis Family representative competing for gold. Although Don Callis has said it was Kyle Fletcher\u2019s destiny to hold and be the greatest TNT champion, Mark Briscoe takes on the undefeated El Clone. We\u2019ll delve into this contest shortly.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of undefeated, the muscular, big beef pairing of Mark Davis and Jake Doyle will take on FTR. As a tag team clash goes, this may have an old-school feel and get extremely dirty and physical. FTR faces an unpredictable force, as they are still developing their chemistry. Given how explosive Davis and Doyle have been already, this match has show-stealer potential.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEWDynamite?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEWDynamite<\/a> TBS + HBO Max<br \/>8\/7c, Austin, TX<br \/>THIS WEDNESDAY, 1\/28<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/swerveconfident?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@SwerveConfident<\/a> vs <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AndradeElIdolo?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@AndradeElIdolo<\/a><\/p>\n<p>After both men scored impressive wins on <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AEWonTV?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@AEWonTV<\/a> this week, Andrade el Idolo said he wants the World Title and Swerve is standing in his way!<\/p>\n<p>Swerve vs Andrade<br \/>THIS WEDNESDAY! <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/F5pZGNLgwN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/F5pZGNLgwN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TonyKhan\/status\/2015255132234015187?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">January 25, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2><strong>AEW Women\u2019s World Championship<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019re going to find out how strong a web the Toxic Spider has cast around the Cosmic Killer. When Thekla challenges Kris Statlander for the AEW Women\u2019s World Championship on Wednesday, we\u2019re going to see if the mind games and attempts to get into Big Stat Daddy\u2019s head have stuck.<\/p>\n<p>For months, Thekla has been patiently waiting. Happy to allow Jamie Hayter her opportunity, Thekla\u2019s Triangle of Madness buzzed around Hayter and Statlander like mosquitoes. Both Skye Blue and Julia Hart have done most of the fighting, but Thekla\u2019s never been too far away, picking her moments.<\/p>\n<p>It was in trios action that Thekla pinned Statlander after pushing Statlander into sacrificing herself in place of a friend-turned-enemy-turned-friend-again, Willow Nightingale. Despite the loss and Thekla\u2019s talk of the pressure of the world and the championship on Statlander\u2019s shoulders, Statlander hasn\u2019t seemed phased. Yet, one-on-one, without places to hide, can the Toxic Spider dominate a woman with a galactic mindset?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>TNT Championship: Mark Briscoe vs. El Clone<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>AEW TNT Champion, Mark Briscoe, issued the challenge on two Collisions ago to the undefeated El Clone. On behalf of his injured teammate, Briscoe is happy to give the Don Callis Family member a shot. The corrupted version of Hologram has been impressive. El Clone\u2019s last singles match against Kommander was a fan-favourite from AEW\u2019s last Arlington Collision.<\/p>\n<p>Not only able to replicate Hologram\u2019s moves, but with additional unique manoeuvres, twists, and body language, this red and black attired luchador is going to push Briscoe differently. Whereas Hechihero is fast but relies on technical prowess, El Clone has the speed advantage. EL Clone has unpredictability and newness on his side. It\u2019s going to be hard for Briscoe to be prepared for an arsenal he has not fully seen.<\/p>\n<p>As a clash of styles goes, this could be another fantastic showcase for the Sussex County Chicken Farmer. Briscoe can perform at his best when faced with the unexpected. Likewise, for El Clone, this is his first chance to showcase his skills against a non-Lucha-based wrestler.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the ring and match, I\u2019ve mentioned the looming and ongoing battle between The Conglomeration and The Don Callis Family. Callis wants the TNT Championship back in the Family. How is that going to affect the ringside area during the match? What\u2019s going to happen before or after the match bell?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_151616\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-151616\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2026\/01\/G_ex9NZWAAAP8zG-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"FTR vs Davis and Doyle at AEW Dynamite \" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"wp-image-151616 size-large\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2026\/01\/G_ex9NZWAAAP8zG-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2026\/01\/G_ex9NZWAAAP8zG-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2026\/01\/G_ex9NZWAAAP8zG-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2026\/01\/G_ex9NZWAAAP8zG-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2026\/01\/G_ex9NZWAAAP8zG.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-151616\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy of AEW<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>AEW Dynamite Matches Announced (1\/28\/26)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>AEW Women\u2019s World Championship: Kris Statlander \u00a9 vs. Thekla<\/li>\n<li>AEW TNT Championship: Mark Briscoe \u00a9 vs. El Clone<\/li>\n<li><span><\/span>Kenny Omega vs. Rocky Romero<\/li>\n<li><span><\/span>AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Jon Moxley \u00a9 vs. Ace Austin<\/li>\n<li>Andrade el Idolo vs. Swerve Strickland<\/li>\n<li>AEW World Tag Team Championship: FTR \u00a9 vs. Davis and Doyle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>AEW Dynamite Segments<\/strong><strong>\u00a0Announced (1\/28\/26)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>AEW World Champion, MJF, appears in Austin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEWDynamite?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#AEWDynamite<\/a><br \/>8\/7c, TBS + HBO Max<br \/>This Wednesday, 1\/28!<\/p>\n<p>AEW World Champion <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/The_MJF?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@The_MJF<\/a> Appears LIVE!<\/p>\n<p>MJF came face to face with <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Brodyxking?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@BrodyXKing<\/a> Wednesday on Dynamite before spending his night watching Omega, Swerve + Joe&#39;s matches very closely.<\/p>\n<p>MJF will be LIVE in Austin, WEDNESDAY! <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YBfkq0jd5w\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/YBfkq0jd5w<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AEW\/status\/2015259595267063991?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">January 25, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><amp-ad data-block-on-consent=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"600\" layout=\"fixed\" data-multi-size=\"300x250,300x600\" data-multi-size-validation=\"false\" type=\"doubleclick\" data-slot=\"\/15188745,22512265771\/FS-lastwordonsports-AMP\/AMP-2\" data-enable-refresh=\"30\" data-lazy-fetch=\"true\" data-loading-strategy=\"1.25\" rtc-config=\"{ &quot;vendors&quot;: { &quot;t13&quot;: { &quot;TAG_ID&quot;: &quot;4f799893-5665-4629-b0fc-8b97d3569fd6&quot;, &quot;ACCOUNT_ID&quot;: &quot;9a3c6c23-453a-4cba-b419-30b908f39a50&quot; }, &quot;aps&quot;: { &quot;PUB_ID&quot;: &quot;600&quot;, &quot;PUB_UUID&quot;: &quot;16268e26-dabe-4bf4-a28f-b8f4ee192ed3&quot;, &quot;PARAMS&quot;: { &quot;amp&quot;: &quot;1&quot; } }, &quot;criteo&quot;: { &quot;NETWORK_ID&quot;: &quot;4905&quot;, &quot;ZONE_ID&quot;: &quot;1382491&quot;, &quot;PUBLISHER_SUB_ID&quot;: &quot;FS-lastwordonsports-AMP-2&quot; }, &quot;medianet&quot;: { &quot;CID&quot;: &quot;8CU8ZT2C4&quot; } } }\"><\/amp-ad><\/p>\n<p><em>Header photo \u2013 AEW \u2013 Stay tun<\/em><em>ed to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"1\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a><span>\u00a0<\/span>for more on the AEW Collision spoilers and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.<span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em><em>You can always count on LWOPW to be on top of the major news in the wrestling world.
