WWE Books Loaded Show For January 23 SmackDown

There is no shortage of excitement going on in WWE. The blue brand has no off-season, and they will be back in North America for their January 23 episode.

The January 16 episode of WWE SmackDown went down in the OVO Arena Wembley in London, England. This was a big show on Friday, and we had full spoilers of the entire broadcast. Next week’s show already has an interesting lineup.

The WWE Friday Night SmackDown on January 23, 2026, will be held at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. This will be one day away from Saturday Night’s Main Event, so the company wants to bring it.

Nathan Frazer jumped Johnny Gargano backstage this week. Then Frazer revealed that he has a match against Gargano next week on SmackDown.

Also a #1 contender match will go down for the Women’s Tag Team Titles. A Triple Threat match featuring Giulia and Kiana James vs. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax and Lash Legend will figure out who gets the next title shot.

The Wyatt Sicks and the MFTs will also go at it in a huge tag team match. Trick Williams and Damian Priest will also have a match next week to prepare fans for the #1 contender fatal fourway.
