WWE Raw Results: Highlights, Analysis, and Grades for January 9

Jack Gallagher vs. Drew Gulak

Result: Jack Gallagher wins via pinfall

Rating: 3.0 out of 5 stars

After spotting quarterback Drew Brees in the crowd with his children, the commentators shifted focus to the Women’s Championship scene. Showing highlights of Bayley’s victory last week, she is shown backstage Sasha Banks. Talking about Bayley’s upcoming title match, Banks talked about a potential match between the two before offering to watch her back. They were interrupted by Charlotte, who questions Banks’ loyalty and reminds Bayley of the fact she hasn’t lost on pay-per-view. Nia Jax then appears, and she attacks the injured knee of Banks while Charlotte subdues Bayley. A happy Charlotte patted her accomplice on the back, which causes Jax to back her up into some crates before leaving the scene.

Back in the ring, Jack Gallagher makes his way down to the ring for cruiserweight action. His opponent for the night is Drew Gulak. The action was back and forth throughout, however, towards the end, Gallagher gained solid control of the match. Knocking his opponent down to size with a series of uppercuts, he hit his dropkick in the corner to earn the three count. After the match, Gallagher offers a parlay to Davari for 205Live, but it isn’t likely that things will go as planned Tuesday.

He might have a unique appearance, but Gallagher has quite a bit of athletic prowess. His upside-down pose in the counter was a clear example of this, as is his recent work on 205 Live. Hopefully, he’ll earn his way to a cruiserweight title run at some point this year.
