Ring of Honor on HonorClub 2/12/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/ring-of-honor-on-honorclub-252026-roh-x.html

We are in Arlington, TX. Caprice Coleman and Ian Riccaboni are on commentary.

ROH World Tag Team Title Match - La Faccion Ingobernable (Sammy Guevara & The Beast Mortos) (c) vs. Top Flight (Dante Martin & Darius Martin)

The heels pose to start. Mort blows a snot rocket when Dante goes for the handshake. Mort pushes him backwards on the lock-up. Mort wristlocks him. Dante flips out of a wristlock and jumping knees him. Dante superkicks him. Dante hits punches and forearms. Mort shoulders him over.

Dante topes SG outside. Mort low blows Darius then pop-up samoan drops him to win.

Thoughts: It wasn't quite as good as it should have been. SG goofed around a lot here early on and we probably didn't see half of Mort's offense here. 

Sammy brags into the camera that he did it all by himself after.

Jay Lethal has Bandido's mask in the back. He says his days of being ROH champ are coming to an end and that's a promise. He says he will hold onto that mask. Tommy Billington comes in. He tells him to remember that there's 2 pitbulls breathing down his back and he challenges him to a match.

Michael Oku & The Von Erichs (Marshall von Erich & Ross von Erich) vs. Oday, OXP & Timur The Great

Kevin Von Erich is with his sons and he puts his hat on Oku. Amira is also with the faces.

OXP side headlocks Oku. Oku flying headscissors him and dropkicks him. Ross takes a uraken from a jobber then Ross corner facekicks him. Marsh flying corner lariats the jobber. Oday takes a chest kick and a standing moonsault. Marsh dropkicks Timur and Timur is thrown out. Oku fosbury flops the jobbers outside.

Ross and Marsh put iron claws on the jobbers. Oku then crabs the others. Marshall pins Timur.

Thoughts: It was a very random squash here with the faces winning as expected. 

We see clips of Maya World's team getting the win last week.

Persephone vs. Julissa Mexa

Mexa used to be Yulisa Leon in WWE NXT. 

Pers and Mexa lock up. They waistlock each other. Pers armdrags her then is armdragged. JM cartwheels over her and dances. JM belly to belly suplexes her. JM bangs Pers' head off her butt then double jump twisting crossbodies her for 2. 

Pers rams JM into the corner then boots her there. Pers basement dropkicks her for 2. Pers forearms her and bangs her head off the buckles. Pers kicks her in the inner thigh. JM is laid on the 2nd rope and Pers handstand double knee drops her in the corner for 2.

Pers germans JM for 2. JM pumphandle half-nelson suplexes her. Pers spears her. Pers hits a razor's edge on her and pins her.

Thoughts: Mexa didn't start off that well but got a little better as things went on. They both took some stiff landings her by the end. I don't really think this was the standout performance Mexa needed to maybe get signed. 

Dalton Castle & The Outrunners (Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd) vs KM, Nathan Cruz & Rosario Grillo

The Runners have new nice white/purple/gold tights on. 

Cruz and Truth go at it. Cruz side headlocks him then Truth dropkicks him. Crus takes a kneelift then a backdrop. KM takes a double dropkick from The Runners. The Runners hit corner attacks on Cruz and KM. 

Dalton comes in and suplexes the jobbers. The faces hit triple slams. The Runners hit a double elbow drop. Grillo takes a bangarang and is pinned.

Thoughts:
The faces win again but these wins aren't really getting them anywhere. It was all squash here.

JD Drake talks about Adam Priest. He says Adam took on more than he could chew. He says he came up short vs Okada. He says he hasn't done anything to prove to anyone that he's worth something. He tells him to start looking for competition when it's looking him in the face. He says Adam has p!ssed him off and he's going to beat him up.

Lance Archer vs. Will Allday

Will makes another show, which is good for him. He's about to get squashed though and he's above doing jobber duty. 

They shake hands and Will bounces off of him on a flying forearm. Lance shoves Will over the top. Will is caught off the top and flips out of a chokeslam. Will dropkicks Lance. Lance hits a crackerjack. Lance forearms him. 

Lance hits running corner back elbows. Will ducks one, does a flip and is sent face first into the buckles. Lance chokeslams Will. Lance hits blackout on Will and wins.

Thoughts: It wasn't a total squash at least and Will got some shine here before going down. The backflip out of the corner spot didn't look good though with Lance not even being close to him. Lance won another squash here, which is basically all he has been doing since the company started.

Mark Sterling does the intro for his team. He says 2 types of people wear masks - criminals and perverts. He says it's a crime that they have to keep wrestling luchadores. He says this is the last lucha match ever in ROH. He then tries to get the crowd to do the "Athletes Rule" line and they don't.

Bandido, Komander, Mascara Dorada & Xelhua vs. The Premier Athletes (Ariya Daivari & Tony Nese) & The Swirl (Blake Christian & Lee Johnson)

They legsweep each other then stand off. Band and Blake get in. Band hits forearms and flying headscissors him. Blake flying headscissors him and both flip out of the headscissors. Blake hits forearms on Band and Band dropkicks him.

Band and Kom hit stereo dropkicks on the heels. Xel and MD then hit stereo dropkicks. Mark distracts all 4 faces at once and the faces all get nailed. Blake chokes Kom on the ropes. Nese lariats Kom then legdrops him. Kom takes a double suplex for 2. Lee hits punches on Kom and bangs his head off the buckles. Blake spears Kom on the apron. Blake fosbury flips Kom and holds on outside. Kom then takes a reverse ddt + Lee splash off the apron. Blake then tries to hit on Stori Denali.

Lee hits mounted punches on Kom. Ari chinlocks Kom on the mat. Ari and Kom trade shots. The crossbody each other at the same time. Blake and Band hit shots on each other then band 2nd rope diving headscissors him. MD top rope tornillo diving armdrags Nese. 

Xel top rope crossbodies Lee then pump kicks Ari. Kom walks up the buckles, does rope tricks and flying headscissors Ari down. The luchadores all do stereo topes out. Blake flips out of Band's 21plex. Mark Sterling trips Band. Stori comes in and chokeslams Band. Blake springboard 450's Band for 2.

Ari superkicks Blake when Band moves. Nese spin kicks Band in the face. MD hits kicks on Nese. Blake standing spanish flies MD. Xel la rosa drivers Blake. Lee half-nelson suplexes Xel. Kom ddt's Lee and Ari lariats Kom. Ari blocks Band's reverse GTS. Band pop-up cutters Ari. 

Xel plancha's out then MD and Kom do stereo 2nd rope moonsaults out. Band hits a 21plex on Ari and wins.

Thoughts:
It was a random one. It was fine and very fast paced as expected. This got a lot of time to play out.

Overall thoughts: It was your usual episode of ROH. We had 2 champs on the show. There was very little storyline work as usual and half the matches were random. The wrestling was alright but there's nothing you really need to see here. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 and I thought it was average. 

TNA Impact 2/12/2026

TNA Impact 2/12/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/tna-impact-252026.html

We are still in Albuquerque, NM.

Moose comes out to talk. Moose says he won't complain about 2 men turning their backs on him. He says he won't complain about them leaving him laying in the ring as he's not a b!tch. He says he calls himself the face of the franchise as he has been through everything here. He says what happened is just another Thursday to him. 

He says he created The System 2 years ago and knows what he needs to do to dismantle it. He says one man in the back knows how to take them out one by one and says he knows who he is. Mike Santana comes out. 

Mike says Moose is right. He says they made each other's lives a living hell. He says he wouldn't ask any other better man to stand by him to kick The System down. Moose says they need 2 legends from North Carolina to come out here so they can beat the hell out of The System. 

Daria Rae comes out. She says what Moose and Mike are doing is over. She says the match will happen, but only in the main where it was planned. She says she needs them to get out of her ring as this is unplanned. The faces then just leave.

Thoughts: The faces looked like real punks here as they got shouted down by Daria then did what they were told.

Ryan Nemeth is interviewed by Gia in the back. Ryan asks how many times it's acceptable to kick someone in the face. He says Mara superkicked him 400 million times and threw a dart at him. He says he will use every weapon he can to annihilate her. He says he will destroy her in front of her friends and family. He says they will all chant, "Let's go hunk" when he wins. Ryan tries to get Gia to chant it and she won't. Ryan then tells her to hit the bricks.

Alisha Edwards talks to Moose in the back. She says she's sorry for what happened and can't wrap her head around it. She says she doesn't know if she belongs here and doesn't know what to do. She says it might be time for her to walk away. Moose says she was the brains behind The System. Moose says she can always be in his corner if she wants to stay.

Nic does a grounded choke. RS picks him up and AA's him. They trade shots. Nic headbutts him. RS hits bolo punches and a spin kick to the body. RS handsprings and is caught with a danger zone. Nic wins.

Thoughts: It was a good match. The two matched up pretty well and got lots of time. This was a big success and couldn't have went better than it did. I'd be up for a rematch. Nic won as expected which isn't exactly good for the new babyface Swann.

Xia Brookside and Indi Hartwell talk. They say they won't surrender at No Surrender and neither will Lei Ying Lee. Xia says they earned their tag title shot and says they will walk out Knockouts Tag champs. They say they can beat up Iceman and Mr. Elegance too. 

The Righteous do a promo. Vince says unity can be such a great thing and say they finally will team with The Hardy's at No Surrender. Dutch says The Hardy's gave everything to this business. Vince says they will face Order 4, who think control is power and fear is leadership. Vince says lift and guide their brothers. Vince says they are honored to team with The Hardy's. Vince says everything is going exactly as it should. Dutch says to trust them.

Eric Young comes out. He says he gave BDE the gift of time. He says the company is filled with bad people and it can be fixed with a cleanse. He asks BDE to come out and give him his answer. 

BDE comes out. EY says the fans like BDE. EY says he doesn't understand him, his popularity or his power. He says he understands the truth and real opportunity. He says he will let him be the hero. He says they need his voice and reach and popularity. He says BDE needs them and they need him. EY asks if he will be with the people who know the truth or the politicians and the sheep. 

BDE says he's right about a few things. He says he sees this place isn't perfect and there's people everywhere looking to stab you in the back. EY asks if it's a yes or a no. BDE says he doesn't need him or his imaginary friends. He says he just needs the people cheering him on while he lives out his dream. BDE says "hell no" and EY drops him with a shot. EY stomps on him and rips his shirt off. Refs come out to stop EY but EY piledrivers him. EY goes for another, security comes down then EY pushes a ref. EY pilerdrivers a security guard. EY then piledrivers a guard on the floor. 

We get a video on Ash By Elegance. They talk about her TNA career so far

Eric Young is fighting security in the back. Santino says EY is suspended. Daria tells security to take their hands off EY and says they will talk later. Daria says EY isn't suspended and he's needed for No Surrender. Daria says he's facing BDE at No Surrender. Daria then tells him to stop with the irrational decisions behind her back.

Mara sits on his back and chokes him with the stick. Ryan hits her with a kendo stick. Ryan is crotched up top. Mara superkicks him then pins him.

Thoughts:
I wasn't a big fan of. It just wasn't believable and it further buried Ryan another 10 feet under. I hope this is the end of this feud. 

TNA Injury Report

Moose is cleared. Jeff Hardy is cleared. Jada Stone is out. Ash By Elegane is cleared. BDE is being evaluated.

Mike tope con hilos Eddie. Bear takes a twist of fate into a neckbreaker. Jeff is crotched up top. Bear fire thunder drivers Jeff and pins him.

Thoughts:
It was good that The System won. It was a bit rushed and very fast paced. I'd turn away for a second and new people would be in fighting already. What we got was fine and it was what you would expect. It was a little sloppy at times with some of the shots not hitting.

Mike Santana is down outside the ring after with Moose and doctors looking at him. The heels pose on the ramp. 

Overall thoughts: Nemeth/Swann was the best match we have seen on TV for a few months from this promotion so that worked. The Eric Young/BDE and Ryan Nemeth/Mara Sade stuff didn't work for me and wasn't that interesting. We then had the main.. The main was fine but Eddie seemed to get his mouth busted open and Mike Santana was down after the match which is a bit concerning. There were a ton of people missing from this show. I don't think they did a good job building up No Surrender here at all. It feels like a total throwaway of a show. I'd give this a 5 out of 10. The commercials are endless, they only had 3 matches for us, the audio often isn't good and I just don't think what they are doing is going to pull in any people who weren't TNA fans already.

WWE Main Event 2/12/2026

Thoughts
: Crews was getting the crowd to react which was good for him. He was crisp as usual. Everything was fine but they didn't do their best stuff here. They definitely stuck to the basics in this.

Thoughts
: This was Cruz's return from injury, but he's on TV so little that it's easy to forget he's even there. It was a decent Main Event level match. We got some dives and JC hit a bit moonsault to win. It was nothing too great but fine for what it was.

Overall thoughts: We had 3 new matches here. All 3 matches were fine and nothing was must see. The main was the best match on here. I liked it and thought it was an easy watch. The show was fine. 

WWE Evolve 2/11/2026

Thoughts: It got a lot of time and was an okay action based match. The faces and heels did what they were supposed to and they kept it interesting. Swipe Right won which was fine. This was kind of a workrate match and not much else. Swipe Right seemed to be turning face before this but that seems to be done with. I don't like Mike's new stripping thing and I hope they stop that.

Jackson Drake gets on the mic after and says his boys got another W. He says The Vanity Project are on a roll and puts over the group. Drake says he owes Cappuccino Jones a favor and says Jones can fight him for the Evolve Title in 3 weeks at Succession. Drake says it's baby food.

Grace asks if they can sue. 

We see Team WWE PC working out. Harley Riggins says they were robbed last week. Jax Presley says they need to nuke Team WWE ID. Braxton Cole says no more divide and conquer, they work as one and destroy anyone in their way. Cam Hendrix loves it and gets hyped up.

Thoughts: AR had a good showing here and busted out some new moves I didn't see him do. He pieced everything together well here and gave Gal one of his better matches. I just don't see much of a future for Rourke though beyond some low card comedy role.

Tate and Trill are interviewed by Chuey. Tate says he came to check out the WWE ID talent. He says he can't stand the injustice around here and says it's time someone stands up to the Team WWE PC's chaos.

We get a video on Tyra Mae Steele. She said she captured gold in 2020 in the Olympics and will make it to the top of Evolve. She says she will be the Evolve champ in 2026.

Wendy Choo and Kali Armstrong talk. Wendy says she heard Kali talking down about herself and maybe she can help. She says maybe therapy could work for Kali like it did for her. Kali punches her in the gut and says that's all the therapy she needs.

They announce Drake/Cappucino for Succession II and a Women's title match.

Thoughts: The first half was better than the 2nd half. The two worked pretty well together. I thought they were going to have KP work the back en route to the finish but they did not. This was one of KP's better outings and I wouldn't mind seeing this again.

KG celebrates with Wren. PJ Vasa comes out. PJ tells KG to come get her issue at Succession II and it's official.

Overall thoughts: We had 3 new matches here. All roads seem to lead to Succession and we have 2 matches set up for it. I feel like there's going to be some big changes after that. The WWE ID vs WWE PC war is also still ongoing. All 3 matches were fine here and this show was okay as a whole. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.

Thoughts: It was similar to other Ultimo singles matches we have been getting. I wasn't a fan of those and wasn't a fan of this. They just got too happy with the top rope moves toward the end of this and didn't get the most they could out of it. Otherwise, it was the usual face vs heel work. This got a lot of time and Ultimo lost yet another singles match.

Mist top rope crossbodies Barb. Mist superkicks him. MD is crotched up top. Mist has la mistica on Sob and Barb pulls Mist's mask off for the DQ. Mistico's team wins the fall and match.

Thoughts: Oh hey look, it's another mask ripping finish in the Arena Puebla main event. I've seen this at least 3 times in the last few weeks and it always sucks. The match was fine other than the finish with Mistico and Barb doing doing most of the work here. Soberano really doesn't do a lot but pose and Vol saves his spots these days for bigger shows.

Overall thoughts
: We had 3 new matches as usual here. The opener was fine with MxM doing their thing. Ultimo vs Atlantis was the usual Ultimo singles match with him doing a bunch of moves off the buckles in the 2nd half. The main was okay but had the usual Arena Puebla main event mask ripping finish which brought it down. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 and you don't need to see it. This was okay overall.

AEW Dynamite 2/11/2026

AEW Dynamite 2/11/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/aew-dynamite-242026.html

We are in Ontario, Canada. Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Bryan Danielson are on commentary.

Tony Schiavone brings Kenny Omega, Prince Nana and Swerve Strickland in the ring. Tony says the tension between them goes back to Maximum Carnage. Swerve says Kenny was on top 5 years ago when he had the title. Swerve said he scratched his way to the top and asked where Kenny was. He says he's been nowhere to be found since he made it to the top. He says the crowd looked for someone new while he was out. He says it feels like Kenny is using his EVP power to get the match with him. He said he had to deal with EVP's the last 2 years and finished them in the summer. He says he will put Kenny down if he uses his EVP powers on him.

Kenny says the crowd cheered for him and liked him without him asking. He says he takes the crowd beliefs as a great responsibility. He says this may be Swerve's house but says maybe the lights are on and nobody is home for Swerve to question him. He says if he needs someone to burn the house down, he has a friend who has experience in it. He says he is a championship material and is getting chances by getting wins. He says he's asking for a fight, not for him to believe in him. Kenny says if he wants the match, he's got it. He asks him to accept or yield. 

Swerve says Kenny is scared as his generation has lapped him. He says he's the most dangerous man in AEW. Kenny says he's not and it's Brody King. Swerve says he can put him back in the hospital bed and says he won't get out of it. Kenny says it's a heck of an idea and slaps him.

Thoughts
: It was a good tag as expected with a lot of people taking stiff shots and them having an action packed match. It was what you would want and expect and they did a good job with it.

Thoughts: I didn't like this at all. It was the usual Kyle match where they do way way too much and kick out of everything. Both guys took some awful bumps here and Kyle seemed determined to give Ciampa another neck injury here. I can't say I love Ciampa losing the title already.

Renee interviews Kyle in the ring after. Kyle says he made it clear that he was coming home with the TNT Title. He says that's what he plans to do and says he will show up as champ. He says he will receive the hero's welcome he deserves. He says he will defend the title in his hometown against anybody from anywhere. He says he's the greatest TNT champ to ever live.

Mark Briscoe comes out. Mark says Kyle used to be a young guy trying to figure things out and now he's a 2x TNT champ. He says he has a big mouth and he doesn't know if his @ss can match the check he is writing. Mark says they fought 6 times and are tied. Mark says he will give him home court advantage for Game 7 if he's not scared. Kyle says he's tired of seeing him in the ring, but says he said he would fight anyone, anywhere, so he escapes. He says #7 needs to be bigger and better than the best. He says he wants it to be the final chapter in their story. Kyle says it'll be in a ladder match.

OC is sent into the rails. CC misses a spear and goes into the LED board rails. Darby Allin then grabs CC and beats him up. OC tope forearms DG. OC cradles DG and pins him.

Thoughts: I didn't like it. OC goofed around and RS rightfully left him for it. Then of course OC had to get the pin here to give Clark a loss after signing with AEW.

Toni Storm and Luther appear in the stands. Toni said she made peace with her life choices. She says Shafir is a mixed martial @sshole. She says Shafir deserves to shave her head if Shafir can knock her out. She says she will shave her head close to her skull if she wins and they will see her as a skull at Spirit Halloween. She says Wheeler Yuta is annoying.

Wheeler Yuta then interrupts from the stage. Yuta says to bring her out then we see Shafir has Mina Shirakawa in mother's milk. Yuta then cuts off some of Mina's hair. Toni is shocked.

We see Don Callis and Andrade talking after last week's Dynamite. Don puts over Andrade beating Kenny and Andrade says "they" beat Kenny. Don says Andrade is the next man to be AEW champ. He says Page will find out that when you get in their way, you get run over. Andrade thanks him for believing in him. 

Adam Page says he needed to beat Kenny but he's not getting him. He talks in Spanish to Andrade and says he will see him down under.

Jetspeed talk in the back. They say they are looking for challengers and say Page is about to win the title. Kevin says they should go for singles belts as well. Mike says they are coming for all the gold in 2026.

#1 Contender's Match - The Young Bucks (Nick and Matt Jackson) vs The Rascalz (Dezmond Xavier and Myron Reed) vs Private Party (Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy)

Private Party haven't been around since 1/22/2025 for unknown reasons. They were gone for so long I forgot Kass' name. Quen is a lot heavier. PP are the wildcard team here.

Kass shoulders over Dez then springboard stunners him over the top rope. Reed legdrops Kass over the middle rope. Reed comes off the top and lands on Quen's atomic drop. Dez takes a double flapjack. 

The Buxks and PP shake hands. They all then fight. Kass is thrown out then takes a plancha from a Buck. Quen takes a sunset flip + german. Kass is held in the air for a facebuster. The Rascalz double team a Buck. Dez then double stomps a Buck's back. Reed suicide dives a Buck. Quen dropkicks Dez then Kass jumps off Dez's back to the outside. A Buck is dropkicked off the ropes.

We go to PiP break and return. PP's heads are banged together and a Buck does a diving armdrag + headscissors off the top on them. Matt does multiple northern lights suplexes on Kass then does one to Quen as well. Matt dropkicks The Rascalz through the ropes.

Nick hits a bulldog + flying lariat combo on PP. The Bucks hit stereo top rope moves for 2 counts. Quen back enzugiri's a Buck. Kass jumps off someone's back into a swinging flatliner. Reed takes a superkick then a Buck takes a side effect. Everyone ends up down after superkicks. A Buck then canadian destroyers Kass.

Dez trades shots with Matt. Dez is popped up into a superkick and then double superkicked. Dez poisonrana's a Buck. Reed diving cutters Kass over the top onto people outside. Reed 450's off the top and Dez misses a pheonix splash off the buckles. 

Reed springboards and eats a double superkick. Dez handsprings and takes a double superkick. Quen comes off the top and eats a double superkick then a BTE trigger. Reed takes a Meltzer driver and is pinned.

Thoughts
: The booking was dumb here with Private Party returning just to lose. Why? Dez and Reed also lost in their first match as tag team here. This was the indy match you would expect with a million superkicks and wild spots that meant little. It was hard to type up and I nearly gave up at one point with how fast this was. We now get another Bucks vs FTR match because the AEW Tag Title division is only allowed to revolve around those two teams. 

FTR come out with Big Stoke. Dax says they come in peace. Dax says they are the two best teams of the generation. FTR says The Bucks are sitting in 2nd place. He says it would bother him if they were in 2nd place. FTR said they were successful in every company they worked in while The Bucks had to create their own company. Dax asks if it bothers them then The Bucks superkick them. Stoke tries to wheel himself away, is caught then The Bucks tease double superkicking him but don't.

We get a video on Will Ospreay talking about his return. 

We get a video on MJF vs Brody King.

AEW Women's World Title - Strap Match - Kris Statlander (c) vs Thekla

This is starting at 10:02PM which is annoying to me.

They tug of war over the strap. Thek goes out, comes in and is buzzsaw kicked. Thek is whipped into the buckles and Kris does a short arm lariat with the strap. She drags her around with the strap. Thek whips her with the strap and is sent into the post.

Kris rams her in the corner. Thek hanging headscissors her over the top rope. Kri chokes her with the strap and Thek eye rakes her. Thek pulls her throat first into the ropes. Thek boots her in the head on the 2nd rope and top rope crossbodies her for 2. 

Thek whips her with the strap. Kris pulls her when she tries the spider pose. Kris superkicks her and running back elbows her in the corner. Kris powerslams her for 2. Kris is whipped on the 2nd rope. Thek is put in tree of woe. She gets up and whips Kris with the trap. Thek spider superplexes her.

Kris whips Thek in the back with the strap then whips her in the gut with it. Kris spinning lariats her for 2. They trade forearms on their knees. Thek spits in her face. Kris lariats her down then whips her with the belt. Kris blue thunders her for 2. 

Thek whips her. Kris tombstones her. Julia Hart and Skye Blue come down. Kris whips them with the belt. Thek spears Kris. Thek curbstomps her and wins.

Thoughts
: It was nice to see Thek win, though I don't know why they didn't do it the first time. It was a violent match with the two whipping each other hard and showing a lot hate. They did a good job with it. Kris got blooded her and both took a whooping. 

The heels beat up on Kris after. Hayter and Windsor make the save. 

Overall thoughts: It was a longer show at 2 hours and 18 minutes. I really didn't like this outside of the opener and the main. We had a lot of indy style wrestling here and a lot of bad booking with OC having to look strong as always and people losing who shouldn't be losing. I thought they did a poor job of hyping up MJF's and Page's matches here for Grand Slam Australia also. I would only give this a 5 out of 10 and I would not recommend it.

WWF Prime Time Wrestling 9/14/1992

WWF Prime Time Wrestling 9/14/1992


We see clips of Ric Flair celebrating his WWF Title win with Heenan and Mr. Perfect. That match will air on this show.

Our hosts are Vince McMahon, Hillbilly Jim, Jim Duggan, Bobby Heenan and Mr. Perfect.

Heenan and Perfect are in a good mood. Jim yells at Heenan and Perfect, saying Macho Man was hurt and injured in the title loss. Heenan says Macho has guts and ability but not the belt. Jim says Heenan and Perfect had this planned the whole time. Jim says it's not over until it's over.

The Bushwhackers (Luke and Butch) and Hacksaw Jim Duggan vs The Nasty Boys (Saggs and Knobbs) and The Mountie

This is from Summerslam 1992. From what I read, it aired in England but didn't make the PPV for some reason.

The heels pound on the faces in the corners then they are thrown into each other. The BW's then march and pose. Knobbs pounds on Luke then takes a bunch of punches to the gut. Knobbs is sent into Saggs then Saggs goes into the buckles and falls on Knobbs. The Nasty's take triple clotheslines then all the heels go out to recoup.

Saggs short arm clotheslines Butch then hits forearms. The BW's get the edge on The Nasty's then Knobbs splashes his partners on accident in the corner. The BW's battering ram all 3 heels in the corner.

We go to break and return. Knobbs kneels on Luke's throat. Luke is dropped on the ropes throat first. Mountie stomps on Luke and sits on his back for a chinlock. Saggs then takes over with the chinlock. Luke is held for shots from The Nasty's in the corner. Luke is slammed by Saggs. Knobbs comes off the 2nd rope and Luke puts his boot up to intercept him.

Mountie and Jim get in. Jim hits punches then hits shots on all 3 heels. Jim double lariats The Nasty's. Jim bangs Mountie's head off the buckles then Mountie takes a battering ram. The BW's grab Jimmy Hart and Jim hits the three point stance lariat on Mountie. Saggs tries to top rope elbow drop Jim while he's on top of Mountie, but Jim moves. Jim then pins Mountie.

Thoughts:
I liked this. We had some fun triple team spots and the crowd was hot. The BW's and Duggan had their limits but they knew what they were doing. Everyone worked a little harder than usual here.

Vince then mentions the Summerslam 1992 VHS will be released soon but doesn't mention that the match we just saw won't be on it.

Jim said he had 80,000 English folks chanting "USA". Vince asks what would happen if The Ultimate Warrior faced Ric Flair and Perfect/Heenan have to think about it.

WWF Event Center

Crush says since coming to the WWF, something hasn't been right. He says his friends tell him this isn't him and says he needs to tell people who he is in a Hawaiian accent. He talks about being from Hawaii and talks in Hawaiian saying "shaka".

Heenan interrupts Sean Mooney, saying he doesn't do a good job in the Event Center. He says Jamison could do it and says Sean is related to Jamison. 

We see clips from last week's Wrestling Challenge. Razor Ramon says the first time Macho comes face to face with him, he will give him a lesson in machismo.

We see a Macho Man interview with Mean Gene Okerlund. He limps to the podium. He said Summerslam vs Warrior was the toughest match of his career. He said they beat each other from pillar to post. He says The Warrior is as much apart of the WWF Title as he is. Macho says he will bring Flair and Perfect down for making him and Warrior doubt each other.

Razor Ramon comes in. He says he saw Macho at Summerslam and he didn't impress him. Razor says everyone knows that he (Razor) wears the gold. He says he will take Macho's gold. Razor says he oozes machismo while Macho needs lessons in it. Razor flicks his toothpick in Macho's face. Macho says he thinks he dropped his toothpick then he nails Razor. Razor goes off the stage then officials intervene.

Shawn Michaels vs Jim Powers

SM hits punches then running elbows him. Jim leapfrogs and clotheslines Shawn over the top to the floor. SM then checks himself in his mirror. They shove each other and Jim side headlocks him. SM goes for a reverse monkey flip and is stomped.

SM goes up and over then lariats him. SM hits a dropkick. SM flying knees him. Jim goes for the monkey flip then rolls him up for 2. SM chinlocks him. Jim hits elbows to the gut and is eye poked. SM bends over and gets kicked. Jim boots SM out of the corner then atomic drops him. Jim hits him in the gut and hits a kneelift. Jim dropkicks him.

Jim misses a corner charge and is superkicked. SM hits a backdrop and wins.

Thoughts:
I liked it. It was a solid match with Jim maybe getting more offense in than Shawn did. They kept it moving, Shawn bumped around a lot and made Jim look decent prior to winning.

Vince says we will see the WWF Title match and he shows us clips of Flair hitting Macho in the knee with a chair at Summerslam. 

WWF Title - "Macho Man" Randy Savage (c) vs Ric Flair

Perfect pulls at Macho's leg to start. Macho is limping and Flair takes Macho down by the leg. Macho goes out and Perfect goes for Macho again while he's in the ring. Flair punches Macho in the head then boots the knee. Macho punches Flair down and escapes from Flair as Flair goes for the legs.

Flair is sent into the rails then suplexed on the floor. Macho punches Flair outside. Flair eye pokes him. Flair is back body dropped on the floor. Flair's head is banged off the rails. Macho top rope double axe handles Flair but his knee hurts too much to make the pin.

Razor Ramon comes out. Perfect trips Macho then Flair dropkicks Macho from behind. Macho goes out of the ring to the floor. Razor kicks Macho in the back of the leg. 

Flair figure fours Macho in the ring. Flair has the hold on for a while. Macho passes out and the ref counts his shoulders down for the 3 count. Flair gets the win.

Thoughts:
You really couldn't do what they were trying to do much better. Macho sold the whole time and did a good job with it. Flair and Perfect were total jerks, constantly cheating and going after the knee and Razor also chipped in to get some heat. It told a fabulous story. The only downfall was that it was a one sided match for the most part and Macho really couldn't get a ton of offense in because of the story. Perfect did a fantastic job as the heel manager here, constantly trying to trip up Macho. It was a great match and with a title change also happening here, it's a must see for 1992.

Heenan and Perfect toast drinks as we return to the roundtable. Hillbilly and Duggan are mad about Razor being out there and say you have to give Macho credit. Perfect just smiles as Vince says he was swiping around there like a dog.

We go back to the match. Macho is down and trying to leave but Razor Ramon comes back out. Razor bangs Macho's leg off the apron and the post. Razor slaps Macho around the hits punches. Refs come down to try and break it up. Macho eventually slides out and The Ultimate Warrior comes out in street clothes to carry him to the back.

The panel then talk. Duggan says when you fight like Warrior and Macho did, it forms a bond. Perfect says him, Heenan and Flair have a strong bond. Duggan then compares them to The Three Stooges.

Bret Hart is wearing weird sunglasses and is satellite interviewed. Vince says Papa Shango is hot on Bret's trails. Bret says he doesn't believe in The Boogeyman and says he lost in Wembley to a better man. He says Shango had nothing to do with it. Perfect questions Bret, bringing up the curse Shango put on Bret. Bret says Shango uses fear as a weapon. Perfect says Shango has his number. Heenan asks how things are with Davey and Bret's families. Bret says everything is back to normal and Heenan says that means they stiff you for gifts at Christmas this year.

Bret says he will prove that Shango is a big boogeyman. He says he will execute him and dares Shango to curse him.

Nailz vs Sgt. Slaughter

It got cut off, but Vince said something about Sarge taking an absence and I wonder if this plays into it.

Nailz hits Sarge while he's on the apron and Sarge goes down to the floor. Nailz hits Sarge with his night stick outside. Sarge is dropped throat first on the rail. Nailz chairs Sarge then hits him with the night stick.

Nailz chokes Sarge with the night stick. Sarge's head is banged off the apron then Nailz chairs Sarge in the gut. Nailz foot chokes Sarge. Refs come to break it up as Nailz continues to choke him with the night stick. Nailz then chairs him.

The stretcher is brought out for Sarge and Sarge is put on it and wheeled out.

Thoughts:
This was all angle here with the match never getting started and Sarge being taken out from the start. 

WWF Event Center

Money Inc and Jimmy Hart do a promo. IRS says he can't stand a thief and says that's what The Natural Disasters are for taking their tag titles. Ted says The ND's stole their money and said the money in the WWF is being champ. Ted says they won't stand for it. He says he will buy them a one way ticket out of here.

Heenan and Perfect interrupt Sean. Heenan says when you talk about money and gold, you can only talk Ric Flair. Heenan says Jamison could do the Event Center. 

The video is cut off. Heenan hands Vince pencils and tells Vince to give Macho these so he can sell them on the corner. We hear something breaking and Jamison walks in. Jamison has some kind of food that looks nasty.

The Undertaker vs Kato


Kato hits Taker from behind then takes uppercuts for it. Taker catches Kato off the buckles and chokes him. Kato boots him and lariats him. Taker no sells it. Kato tries lariats and then eye rakes him.

Taker blocks Kato's hiptoss then chokeslams him. Taker chokes him. Taker tombstones Kato and gets the pin.

Thoughts:
It was all squash here with Kato getting some offense in but Taker no sold all of it.

We return to the studio. Jamison is eating and the show ends.

Overall thoughts: The opener was a fun match and was a rare Summerslam dark match. Shawn vs Powers was good. Macho vs Flair was great and a must see match for 1992, but a bit one-sided. Nailz/Sarge was all angle and Taker/Kato was a squash. I believe there was a Big Boss Man match that got cut off of this one also. The co-host panel were very entertaining as well. I'd give this an 8 out of 10 and it was definitely a can't miss edition of Prime Time.
