LA Knight returns; AJ Styles defeats Gunther & other possible spoilers for WWE RAW tonight (January 12, 2026)

Penta will team up with Dragon Lee tonight.

On the road to the Royal Rumble, WWE will arrive in Düsseldorf for the January 12 edition of Monday Night Raw. This week’s show is anticipated to kick off the build towards the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event as the promotion prepares for the first PLE of 2026.

The January 12 show will take place at the PSD Bank Dome in Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The promotion has announced multiple big names who are set for an appearance on the along with a tag team match.

Additionally, AJ Styles and Gunther are set to battle for the first time tonight. Let us now take a look at the top four spoilers for this week’s show of WWE Raw.

4. AJ Styles defeats Gunther

‘The Phenomenal’ AJ Styles and ‘The Ring General’ Gunther are set to lock horns for the first time inside the squared circle on tonight’s episode of Raw. The match was set up following their confrontation last week, where Styles took an issue with Gunther disrespecting John Cena and then taunting him.

Gunther has been working without a proper creative direction since defeating Cena last month, and it seems like a feud between the two ahead of WrestleMania is among the plans. WWE might opt for either a DQ finish or for Styles to defeat Gunther, which would be a humbling experience for him and would keep the fans engaged and the storyline going.

3. The Vision reigns supreme

During last week’s main event showdown between CM Punk and Bron Breakker, the Vision’s Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, and Austin Theory tried to cause interference when Dragon Lee, Penta, and Rey Mysterio made the save. Following the brawl, WWE has announced a tag team match as Penta teams up with Dragon Lee to take on Reed and Theory.

This match and the entire feud are likely filler as multiple big names, who have a feud to settle with the faction is out of action. Theory and Reed are likely going to win the match, with Lee likely taking the pinfall loss.

2. Bron Breakker attacks

World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk in the main event last week, conquered Bron Breakker to retain the title, despite multiple interferences from the Vision faction. Following the win, the Champion is set to make an appearance, likely revealing what’s in store for him on the Road to WrestleMania.

However, Breakker will likely not take the loss kindly; he is likley going to retaliate and once again attack the Champion to make sure the message is loud and clear and puts the Champion on the defensive once again.

1. LA Knight returns

‘The Megastar’, LA Knight, has been absent since the  December 8 episode of Raw, where he was written off TV after an attack by The Vision. There were rumors of his return during last week’s show to aid CM Punk, which didn’t materialize.

However, a report from Fightful Select reveals that Knight was scheduled to travel to Germany last week. Notably, Raw tonight is in Düsseldorf, Germany, and the Megastar might return tonight to aid Punk if Breakker attacks, or he could play a role in the tag team match to revive his feud with the faction.
