AAA Triplemania XXXIV Night 2 9/13/2026

Night 1 is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/aaa-triplemania-xxxiv-night-1-9112026.html

Note - The Youtube link for this said it was airing at 7PM. WWE also wrote that this was happening at 7PM and 9PM on various sites. About 8,500 people were waiting for this at 7PM when it didn't start until 9PM and I spent most of the day wondering what time this show was.

Thoughts: It wasn't that good. Flam really didn't look like she wanted to do the job here. She really booted Cat hard in the face and she was not looking real interested in this early. They had some sloppy moments to. The big news here was that Flam was looking for help and didn't get it. I knew Flam was going to lose here, but I would have liked to see her stay champ for a bit longer since she was champ so long. But Cat was signed to be the top face and Flam's time was coming up.

Cat gets fireworks after.

Thoughts: It was a shorter one. The only real thing of note here was Pagano essentially turning on Clown. It wasn't much but weapons shots. This was not the big battle it should have been. 

Pag gives Carn the kendo stick and Carn hits Clown with it several times.

Perros del Mal go up to the ref/the sound guy in the back and want their music to be played. Los Perros then attack the guys in the 4-way. They say something quick on the mic and get big pops. They then pose and the segment ends.

Thoughts: It was rushed. The Wagner's were mystery opponents here so it was random and it wasn't built up to well. They made the best of what they got, but it was a match and there was nothing memorable about it.

Dom misses a top rope splash. Grande running headbutts him down. Rey Mysterio in a neckbrace comes in and counts the pin for Grande. Grande wins.

Thoughts: The ending could have been a little better, but I'm sure Rey coming out to count the pin for Grande won't go unnoticed by Dom. The work was really good here. They mostly did all brawling and it was great brawling. It was aggressive and it didn't stop. This was not a moves match whatsoever and there was probably few moves total. It was definitely rushed though. It could have used some blood and they did not go for an epic. It wasn't the match I was expecting at all. I thought it was good. 

Grande gets a band and fireworks at all. 

Overall thoughts: I liked La Copa Bardahl. It was fun, had some surprise appearances and put Omos over. Flammer/Catalina wasn't that good and Cat won as expected. Carnicero/Clown was too short and was only notable for Pagano turning on Clown. The 4-way cruiserweight match was the wild indy spotfest we all expected. The Wagner's beat The War Raiders in a rushed tag. The main was good and full of fast paced and aggressive brawling. We had some run in's, but like the semi-main, it was rushed and they didn't quite get to go all out. I would have to blame the time for that as this was pushing midnight on a Sunday. Why they decided to run the show so late is unknown as no one benefited from it and it definitely hurt the show. If you were looking for big entrances and that kind of stuff, we didn't get it outside of Grande's celebration because TKO is just too cheap. Like a lot of two night events, this would have been better as a one night event and you could have easily combined the non-random bouts from Night 1 and Night 2 and created a much better card. I'd give this show a 6 out of 10. They got the results right and the main was good enough, but the show was rushed and it was not their best possible work. The show was okay overall.

Thoughts: Okay match, wrong crowd. It was almost a mirror match at times with them facekicking each other the whole time. This would have been a lot better at Korakuen where the crowd would have reacted. Maybe some of the stuff inbetween the various strikes could have been better but it was an okay match overall.

Goto backdrops Mila. DS codebreakers Goto then KA low dropkicks Mila. KA facekicks AJ down. AJ brazilian kicks Miku and Miku lariats her down. Miku buzzsaw kicks her for 2. Miku then tiger drivers AJ and pins her.

Thoughts: It was acceptable enough as the main. It didn't get time for everyone to do a ton here and they certainly didn't go for a classic. There were a couple of rough spots here.  

Miku talks on the mic after and Miku's team do the "Shine Forever, Marigold" cheer.

We get some post show interviews. Aleah James' team does one. She says she got a test of what Miku has and it was eye opener. She says she tried her best. Mila says it's hard to make comebacks with so many people in the ring. Diana says it was a hard match. Yuzuki then talks in Japanese but thanks everyone in English.

Overall thoughts: The opener was acceptable. Mayu beat Lady AI in a long squash. Megaton/Tachibana wasn't good. Rea/Shinno made sense for the most part and it was alright, just not super exciting. Erina/Yuuka was acceptable but it wasn't as good as I had hoped for. Nagisa/Komomo was average to acceptable. Mai/Chi Chi would have been a better bout if the crowd was more into it, but it was still okay. The main was also acceptable but they didn't do a ton. The crowd was quiet all night long and brought down every match here, totally ruining the show. They particularly did a number on Mai/Chi Chi, which would have maybe been good in front of someone else. I'd give it a higher 5 out of 10 as most of the matches were at least somewhat watchable, but there was nothing must see here. The show was acceptable overall but I would not recommend this.

Thoughts: It was a slowed paced bout and it was nothing too special. They got a lot of time and I'm not sure if the extra time really helped them here. We had a decent bit of shenanigans with the ref going down, Lana getting on the apron and Santana Garrett coming down to stop Lana. I can't really understand this Tormenta push. She's not that over and she can't do promos which limits these segments.

We see clips of Santana Garrett's feud with The Enlightened.

We see the #1 Contender's Four way from 8/8/2026:

Thoughts: It was ugly. Little was hit cleanly here and Mayfield was absolutely awful. Nothing she was involved in looked good. They also messed up the finish. Santana winning was really the only result that made sense here.

We then see this from 8/22/2026:

Pink jawbreakers her and superkicks her for 2. Lana slides a mirror in, SG grabs it and nails Pink with the mirror. SG pinks Pink.

Thoughts: The match was fine. It's been clear for months now that WOW is pushing SG for another title run. Today was the day for that one. I would have rather seen Genesis do it, but that is likely never happening. SG gives you almost the same thing every time out so her winning isn't the most exciting thing.

SG celebrates and cries after.

Overall thoughts: There were no new matches here. It was all recaps and there was nothing you need to see on this one. I would not recommend this. I won't be rating this as there was no new content. 

STARDOM 9/12/2026 To The World 2026

STARDOM 9/12/2026 To The World 2026

Thoughts: It was an acceptable opener here. Matoi had a decent showing and KK stuck to her kicks as usual. It was nothing great but it was unoffensive and did what it was supposed to do.

HANAKO, Utami Hayashishita & Waka Tsukiyama vs. HATE (Fukigen Death, Konami & Ruaka) vs. Mi Vida Loca (Itsuki Aoki & Rina Yamashita) & Saori Anou

Hanako pinned Death with a sitout torture rack bomb to win. It wasn't real serious or anything that good. There were at least 4 people in the ring at all times here and there wasn't a lot of urgency to try and get the win or anything, which just further made it clear that this one didn't matter. If you were expecting high speed chaos, this really wasn't it, but if you wanted to see people take triple teams, this was for you.

Fuwa-chan & FWC (Hazuki & Koguma) vs. Kikyo Furusawa, Maki Ito & Rian

Thoughts: I didn't like this at all. Kog and Rian fooled around to start things off and it was just never that serious or good. Lots of people ran in and out at their leisure as well.

Bea Priestley vs. Anne Kanaya

AK gets booted during her entrance. BP stomps her and grabs her nostrils. AK thesz presses her and low dropkicks her. AK is swept off the 2nd rope. BP pulls AK  throat first into the ropes.

Thoughts: Rina and Hina did their usual stuff. Syuri as trying a bit harder than usual though and was the standout in this one. There were a bunch of kicks thrown in this one but I thought it was average.

Future Of Stardom Title Match - Ranna Yagami (c) vs. Akira Kurogane

Akira runs at her and they do a bad lock up. Ran front facelocks her and goes for a sleeper. They do some mat wrestling. Ran yanks on Akira's arm and wristlocks her. Akira side headlocks her. They dropkick each other and Akira goes down. Ran yanks on the arm and then kicks it.

Ran high kicks Akira down. Ran chest kicks her then 2nd rope twisting enzugiri's her for 2. Ran buzzsaw kicks her and pins her.

Thoughts: It was disappointing. It didn't get a lot of time. They didn't do a lot of exciting stuff and it was a basic match for the most part. Akira didn't show a ton of spirit either and that kind of stuff isn't up Ranna's alley. This should have been a much better match and it was totally average instead. 

Artist Of Stardom Title Match - Triangle Of Madness (Julia Hart, Skye Blue & Thekla) (c) vs. Cosmic Angels (Aya Sakura, Natsupoi & Yuna Mizumori)

The faces attack Hart before the bell. Hart takes kicks and is shouldered over. Yuna is pulled out and sent into the apron edge. Her partners also get beaten up outside. The heels hit stereo chops against the apron edge. The faces then get sent into the seats together.

Thek starts hitting her opponents with a belt. The ref sees it and stops her. SB hits Aya with a title belt. Aya takes an assisted swinging uranage for 2. SB TKO's Aya and pins her.

Thoughts: It was average. The heels won via cheating which wasn't the most exciting ending. I didn't think the faces got a great comeback section in on this one and the heels didn't do that great or heel work either. As usual, Skye did a bunch of bad looking superkicks that barely connected. This should have been a little better than it was. 

Thekla talks on the mic after. She says they are still the champs and you won't get rid of them. Thek then calls out Stardom's President Okada and challenges him to get in the ring. Fuwa-chan, Hazuki and Koguma come out. Fuwa says to give the belt back to Stardom in English and says they are the next challengers. Thek pushes Fuwa over and tells her to get out of the ring.

Thoughts: I didn't like it. It went long. Momo kind of killed the heat in the middle of this one with her section and it got stupid by the end with people kicking out of canadian destroyers. This thing would just not end.

Han backdrops Ami for 2. Han then pins her with a backdrop.

Thoughts: The endless Hanan super push continues as she beats another wrestler who is a lot better than her. I thought they did a little too much with 2nd rope blue thunders being kicked out of. It was more of an Ami match than a Hanan match at least. It was acceptable but not much else.  

Hanan talks on the mic after and Ruaka comes out to try and get a title shot. Han agrees and Ruaka germans her. Ruaka then sits on her and poses with the title.

Suzu throws chairs at Tora while she's down for 2. Tora death valley drivers her. Tora grabs a chain and Suzu tequila shot's her for 2. Suzu hits germans on her twice then germans her on chairs to win.

Thoughts: They had a mostly safe hardcore match here. I don't think they really got vicious or violent enough and a lot of what they did is stuff Tora does in most of her singles matches anyway. It was acceptable but nothing too out of the ordinary.

Suzu talks on the mic after and offers her a handshake. Tora accepts it and Suzu hugs her. 

Overall thoughts: It was a disappointing Stardom show. They didn't have a great line-up for this one on paper and it wasn't much better in reality. Some of their better girls were stuck in pointless tag matches as usual and the next generation of girls is just in the position to carry these shows like they want them to be. The main was the best thing on here and even that was kind of by the numbers. The girls just did not go all out here for the most part and they did not treat this one like a major show. I'd give it 4 out of 10 and I though this was below average and disappointing. 

AEW Collision 9/12/2026

He says that's why Jericho is threatened by someone like him. He says Jericho called him a douchebag for wearing his necklace. He says if Jericho really thinks he's a know it all, he invites him to face him on Wednesday and show him a thing or two.

Thoughts: It was average. They hit their moves mostly clean but there wasn't much else to it. There were no faces or heels or any great logic to this one. I'm not really sure why we even got this.

The Death Riders/The Dogs talk. Finlay asks what happened to them being killers to Gabe. They imply Gabe is turning soft and complain about him helping Mox. Mox gets in Clark's face and says he was in wars while Clark was in the dojo scrubbing backs. Mox says he doesn't do favors or babysit.

Jay gets on the mic after. Jay says the gang have their working boots on and he calls out The Death Riders/Dogs. He says what better place to do this than right here and right now. 

The Dogs (Gabe Kidd, David Finlay and Clark Connors) and PAC vs The Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson, Ace Austin, Colten Gunn and Austin Gunn)

We then get a video on The Butcher to close the show. The roster comes out and claps for him. 

Overall thoughts: They did some tributes to The Butcher here and did their usual show here. I liked Mox/Bailey and would say it was the best match on here.. The Rascalz won a squash. Mina/Queen was random and average. Jay White beat Adam Priest in a short one. The Dogs and The Conglomeration had similar fast-paced multi-man matches and both were fine. The battle royal wasn't bad. I don't usually rate tribute episodes and I won't be doing that here.

Thoughts: It wasn't really what I expected. Wolf did more strikes here. Ken picked up the pace for offense but I didn't think they meshed that well. I was just hoping they'd do more of a juniors match than what we got here. This was average.

Thoughts: The finish was weak here. It was a slower match but it was fine. Kouga is basically acting like Katsuhiko Nakajima in this new gimmick and he mostly stuck to kicks. His kicks looked good though and that's what's most important. They certainly made Kouga come across as important here in his return from excursion and I'm interested to see how he develops under the new name. Even though he lost, I still think this match helped give him credibility as he kicked Oz's @ss for the majority of this one. It was okay bout and I'd be interested to see this what a rematch of this one looks like in a few years.

Kouga hits mounted forearms on Oz after. The ref and ring boys try to stop him and eventually do.

Ozawa talks on the mic after.

Overall thoughts: It was an encouraging day at the N-1. Even if nothing was great, most of the guys are solid, experienced workers and it seems like there's a high possibility of some good bouts in this tournament. Inamura/Iino was maybe the best match of the night. Endo/Mas was okay. Shane got a decent bout out of Fujita. Soya/Kent was exactly what it should have been and was okay. I didn't like Sugi/Chen. Kenoh/Titus went well until the end. Alpha/Kaito was average. The main was okay and Kouga came off like the new Katsuhiko Nakajima here. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 overall. We had a lot of okay wrestling here and it made me want to see the next day of the tournament. The show was good overall.

NWA Powerrr 9/12/2026

NWA Powerrr 9/12/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/nwa-powerrr-952026.html

Joe Galli, Danny Dealz and Tim Storm are on commentary.

We get a video on tonight's table's match.

I won't be covering the Shaw vs Sirena Veil match. Veil shockingly won and took the NWA Women's TV Title, winning her first NWA title.

Thoughts: It got cut up by the break. They just had one normal ladder from the store to use and they could only so much with it. It was acceptable but definitely by no means a classic. The time just wasn't there for this one either. Mondo missing a splash off the ladder was probably the high point of this. There also was just not enough room in the ring in this bout.

Talos and Daisy Kill do a promo. Talos said he likes to have a good time and that's why he did what he did to Eric Smalls. He says he will have the best time next week in the 5-way when he gets a chance to win the title.

Kerry interrupts and says we should be applauding wrestling royalty. Ricky says he learned a long time ago that there's things that matter and things that don't.

Kyle asks if they have will have a Philadelphia Death Match but Ricky says it'll be a Texas Death Match. Kerry says they didn't turn their backs on The Southern Six, The Six turned their backs on them.  

It's Me...The Carson Drake Experience

He says he left Carnage to fend for himself and says they should consider themselves lucky that Joe agreed to this. Drake says they wear white and gold but the belts are black and gold. Joe says it's interesting and you never know. Drake says they like to do things by the book on here and Joe says that's his line.

He says if he's man enough, he will show what he things of him.

We return from break.

Trev beats up Rant on the ramp. 6 men fight on the ramp. Trev slaps one of his knights after taking his helmet off. Trev then hits the wizard out there with him (not Jakob) with a helmet. Everyone fights on the ramp.

Franks chairs Buster then Trev chairs Buster. Buster falls off the apron and goes through a round table. Trevor's team wins.

Thoughts: This was a weird one. Everyone kept throwing each other through regular tables which didn't count towards victory. And it didn't happen once, it happened 4 times, so everyone came off like idiots. Maybe you could make the case that they were just doing it to punish their opponents, but it came off as odd. Trevor Murdoch attacked his knights during this. There was no reason for that and made no sense. The match was acceptable but it was mostly just chaos and people coming in and out for various spots. There was not a lot of wrestling here.

Overall thoughts: I didn't see the opener. The ladder match was acceptable but it got cut up by breaks and the ring wasn't big enough. They also only had one ladder to work with which limited things. The main was all chaos with people looking stupid for putting opponents through tables that weren't eligible in the match. It was still kind of acceptable, but it was memorable for all the wrong reasons. I'd give this show a 5 out of 10 overall. It was the usual average NWA show with odd booking that kind of leaves you underwhelmed and I wouldn't recommend it.
