Evening Daily News Update: July 9, 2026

Good evening doomers, and welcome to your Evening Daily News Update for Thursday, July the 9th, 2026. It’s been a wonderfully unhinged day, and the World Cup Quarter-Finals is in progress with France taking on Morocco (the game might even be over by the time this publishes). Tonight, we have some TNA Impact, WWE Main Event, ROH Honor Club, and JCW Lunacy. A real malibu of professional sports entertainment action.

Don’t forget to check out Phred’s recap of last night’s episode of WWE Evolve. I swear, Nikkita Lyons has gotten much better in the last 12 months.

TNA Impact Preview:
Tonight, Xia Brookside defends the Knockouts Title against Lei Ying Lee in a No DQ Match, The Hardys defend the World Tag Titles against John “Reach For The” Skyler and Jason “I Don’t Know What To Put Here” Hotch, and the Knockouts TV Title Tournament continues as Indi Hartwell takes on Vicious Vicki Venuto, Jody Threat battles Gabby Forza, and Jada Stone faces off with Alisha Edwards. Also, there’s a 3-Way Tag Team Match.

YouTube Spotlight: nWo Found Footage!
Sit back with a hunk of cheese and o behind the scenes of The nWo’s early days and see Hollywood Hogan, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash shoot some of the first paid announcements that took over WCW airwaves in the summer of 1996.
