There are no quiet days in the current wrestling landscape, and this latest week is no different. Most noticeably, Stardom’s 5STAR Grand Prix gets underway, while NJPW’s G1 Climax rolls on. Stateside, Ring of Honor returns to PPV, finally getting Death Before Dishonor in the ring after an unfortunate build. Part of that build occurs […]
It’s perhaps the most loaded weekend of wrestling’s 2023 thus far, as NJPW’s G1 Climax gets underway while NOAH hosts a blockbuster main event. In addition, Collision boasts a television special lineup, with FTR’s rematch against Jay White and Juice Robinson stealing the headlines. Elsewhere, Kenny Omega shares his own rematch with El Hijo del
It’s a special time for Joe Hulbert Promotions and so, we have eight matches to cover in this week’s match guide. New Japan’s STRONG brand dominates the headlines, producing two of the year’s coolest events at Korakuen Hall. That makes up much of the action while elsewhere, Kenny Omega headlines Dynamite and Natalya rocks RAW

Another week, another blockbuster event, as WWE’s Money in the Bank PLE takes centre stage. Bloodline Civil War is the attraction there but elsewhere, the men’s Owen bracket concludes round one, with Roderick Strong and Samoa Joe meeting in Joe Hulbert Promotions’ official season finale. Even beyond those JHP encounters, it’s a loaded weekend, with

It’s a special week for the wrestling world, as AEW and NJPW again come together for the blockbuster Forbidden Door event. In fact, it’s such a special week that this match guide is coming to you a day later than usual, as I required an extra evening to recover from such an onslaught of graps.

It’s a very fleet-centric week for the match guide, as AEW pairs an all-star Dynamite lineup with Collision’s much anticipated premiere. The latter signifies a new chapter within a story that’s dominated the headlines for much of the last year, as CM Punk once again returns to the ring. Meanwhile, Gunther and Kevin Owens are

All Japan, New Japan and NOAH are all together again, but that isn’t the match guide’s headline. With two matches each, IMPACT and RAW inexplicably dominate this entry, but that isn’t our headline either. Instead, it’s a far rarer occasion than the examples above, as Major League Wrestling makes it match guide debut. Seriously though,

After such an eventful few days, this week feels like a collective exhale. NJPW’s Dominion aside, it’s a quieter collection of graps, but that can produce some of my personal favourite offerings. These are the weeks where you’re given the time to enjoy a Gates of Agony TV match, or perhaps head to All Japan

It was a busy weekend for professional wrestling and though I’m still recovering from the rollercoaster ride, it’s time to overanalyse some graps. Clearly, it was all about the main eventers this week, from IMPACT Under Siege to AEW Double or Nothing, and so that’ll be our main focus. NXT Battleground inexplicably emerged as a

It’s a special week and so, we’re doing something slightly different with the match guide. This is your pre-PPV edition, featuring the week’s matches as well as a few bouts that I couldn’t get to before our last entry. Then, early next week, I’ll be covering the Best of the Super Juniors final as well
