IWA Puerto Rican Title - Pedro Portillo III (c) vs Super Atomo

Atomo hugs the blind paraolympian (Jose Diaz) from the last show during his entrance.

PP goes out and throws Jose's armband in his face. SA his punches and chops on PP. SA goes up and over him then armdrags him. PP goes out. SA diving headscissors him off the apron to the floor. SA chops him outside then PP walks to the back. SA follows him. We see them fighting in the back. Someone stops the ref from following them. SA then gets beaten up by PP's buddies. SA is sent into the wall backstage then he is rolled on the floor. PP rips SA's mask.

PP puts SA's face into Jose and blood gets on the Jose's shirt. SA hits chops on PP and PP eye rakes him. PP euros him over in the ring. PP then yells at Jose. SA rolls up PP for 2. SA chops PP, walks up the buckles and is pulled down.

PP licks SA's bloody head. SA hits shots to the gut and PP lariats him. PP goes out and fakes throwing punches at Jose. PP taunts the crowd and SA hits punches and chops. SA corkscrew kicks him.

SA hits flying forearms on PP. SA flying headscissors him. SA hits mounted corner punches on PP. SA 2nd rope diving blockbusters him for 2. SA misses a 2nd rope elbow drop. PP rebound germans SA then twisting suplexes him for 2.PP grabs a chair outside. PP takes the cane from Jose and hits SA with it. PP then pins him.

Thoughts: Pedro was a real jerk here as he was messing with the blind guy and eventually used his cane on Super Atomo to win the match. Atomo got his masked ripped up and got bloody here. It was was a pretty interesting match with them really getting some heat on Pedro. I liked this.

Pedro offers Jose his cane after then drops it. Pedro then gets in his face and grabs Jose. Jose shoves Pedro.

Pedro grabs Super Atomo after and swings him into Jose. Pedro gets a bunch of heat with the fans. Aotmo has to be helped to the back.

Julio Rodan, the mayor of Aguadilla invites everyone to the show tonight.

Jay Blake comes to the ring for his match. Savio Vega tells him to always believe it. He says he told him that he should never have had the IWA Title. He says he will bring him the IWA champ. A masked the guy then jumps Jay from behind.

IWA World Title - Jay Blake (c) vs Manu

The masked guy unmasks and it's Manu. Manu suplexes Jay for 2. Jay thesz presses him and hits mounted shots. Jay hits punches in the corner and boots him. Jay goes after Vega and is hit from behind. Manu slams Jay on the floor.

Jay bangs Manu's head off the post. They trade chops and Manu backdrops him on the apron edge twice. Manu short arm lariats him. Manu facekicks him. Manu camel clutches him. Jay step up enzugiri's him.

Manu flying forearms him a few times for 2. Manu camel clutches him. Jay tries to ropebreak and Vega knocks his hand off the ropes. Vega backhands the ref down outside. Another ref comes down as the camel clutch stays on. Vega gets in the ring and the ref ejects him. Vega punches the ref then stomps him. Pedro Portillo III then comes out with a ref shirt on. He rules Jay out and calls for the bell. Manu wins via ref stoppage.

Thoughts: The finish was really dumb here. Two refs got hit which should have been a DQ each time. Pedro Portillo III then comes out with a ref shirt on and somehow becomes the ref, costing Jay the match. This didn't make any sense rule wise and hurt the match. Manu was also a disappointment as the mystery guy. I didn't like this.

Vega superkicks Jay after and Jay is triple teamed by Vega, Manu and Portillo. Manu hits Jay with the title.

We get a video on Deimos and Teal Piper coming in.

Wizard Analiza

Wizard talks to Nic Nolan and Matty Ice. Wiz calls them crooks and American traitors in Spanish then asks how they feel. Ice says he feels great except for getting hit in the head with the title. Ice says they are here and ready to take on anyone. Nic says they are taking on all comers. Nic also points out his $7.99 Fruit Loops socks for some reason. Wizard purposely does terrible translations for them, saying they don't believe they won and think it's a fluke. Wiz says Nic has thinks he's being taken by the devil on his leg. Wiz says Ice has a face like the devil then says he's happy for them and shakes their hands. They all then hug.

Thoughts: This was a funny segment with Wizard ripping them in Spanish without them knowing.

Danny Limelight gets on the mic before his match. He says he was born in New York and says Savio Vega is his uncle. He says he doesn't want the fans' love, just the money and titles. Danny then issues an open challenge for his title. He says he will win as he's the best wrestler in Puerto Rico. Matty Ice comes out to accept the challenge.

Reality of Wrestling World Title - Danny Limelight (c) vs Matty Ice

DL slides out and stalls to start. They lock up and DL is pushed down. DL messes around in the crowd and Ice nails him from behind. Ice punches him in the stands and euros him there. They get in the ring and DL stomps him.

Ice punches him then hits mounted corner punches. Ice puts DL's bandana on then delay suplexes him. Ice flapjacks him then splashes him while holding onto the ropes.

Ice back body drops him and superkicks him. Ice elbow drops him for 2. Ice gets upset with Vega for putting DL's foot on the ropes. Vega throws powder in his face. DL hammerlock pedigrees Ice and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a longer and slower bout. It wasn't bad but just not super exciting and it didn't need all the time it got.

DL stomps and pounds on him after. Vega joins in. Nic Nolan comes in and makes the save. Edrax Torres, Mascara Pura, Riviero Rivas, Pedro Portillo, Xavier Millet, Manu and Jay Blake join the fight. Jay breaks a board on the heels and drops 4 of them before he gets to the ring. Jay then gets group stomped in the ring.

Jay hits stunners on some of the heels and chases Manu out. Vega tries to grab Jay and runs.

Vega gets on the mic after. He says Jay is in the wrong place and could die right now. He says Jay is not good at everything and says Manu's the world champ of his company. Vega says he will tear him apart piece of by piece.

Jay tells him to shut up. Jay tells Vega's crew that he's not alone and says the fans support him. Jay says at Jucio Final, Vega will listen well and will be hunted.

We see various of things like Bitterness vs Vargas, Jose Navarro's attack on Raul Magnum and El Dragon Nihan's match last time.

Jose Navarro vs Raul Magnum

Jose boots RM as he gets in then foot chokes him. Jose hits corner spears and punches. Jose knee drops him and stomps him. Jose legdrops him for 2. RM hits punches. RM's throat is pulled down over the top rope. RM is thrown out then sent into the post.

RM hits mounted corner punches. Jose pushes him off into the ref. Jose low blows him. Jose hits punches on RM. RM's son gets in the ring. He hits a bunch of shots on Jose's gut and chokes him. Jose then knees him in the gut. The ref then calls for the DQ, though it's not clear on who.

Thoughts: Raul's in great shape and is pretty bulky. He didn't have that much offense besides punches but he did the best he could. Raul wasn't supposed to be taking him hold for hold anyway and should have been the underdog. It wasn't great but I think they got the point the across and did alright with it.

Jose curbstomps Raul after then clubs on his son. Pupe Jackson then makes his return after Jose turned on him. Pupe gets in and chases Jose off. Pupe gets on the mic and asks what happened. He says Jose isn't handsome and betrayed him. He says let's see how big his balls are and challenges him. He calls him a fool and challenges him for 3/28.

Overall thoughts: It was a longer show and it was definitely meant to build to Juico Final instead of being its own event. I liked Atomo/Portillo they really got Portillo over as a heel by harassing the blind paralympian. I didn't like Jay Blake/Manu as there was no DQ called when there should have been. Wizard's interview with Nolan and Ice was funny and creative. Limelight/Ice was long and a bit boring but not bad. Navarro/Magnum did what it was supposed to though Magnum could have been a bit more fiery and show some more offense off. I'd give it a higher 5 out of 10 as it was more of an average show that was building towards other events.

Thoughts: I was surprised Ice won with a simple elbow drop. The match was an old school match. The crowd was into Nic and Ice and the heels did simple cheating and double teaming against them. It was a safe match and it worked. I liked it and thought it was fine.

ET and Pura attack Ice and Nic from behind after. Danny Limelight saves Ice and Nic. Danny then nails Ice and Nic with his ROW World Title. He then helps Pura and ET beat up Ice and Nic.

Thoughts: This was so-so. It only went like 8 minutes and had shenanigans. They spent a decent portion of this trading shots outside as well.

Overall thoughts: I liked Blaze/Atomo. Vargas/Bitterness was a decent match and I liked the tag title match. The main didn't get enough of time and they wasted some of the time they did get. I thought it was a good show overall and I'd give this a 6 out of 10.

Thoughts: They messed up the finish a little but it was a nice hoss match otherwise. Mar got the crowd into it as the face and it's a bit rare to see a big vs big match around here. They did what they were supposed to.

We see some clips of the recent things going on with Jay Blake then we see clips of the promo Savio Vega did on him in the Wizard Analiza segment.

We see clips of the Jose Navarro/Excellent Mantell turn on Pupe Jackson.

We then see Pupe Jackson head to the arena for tonight and he looks ready to fight.

Overall thoughts: We had some random bouts here but at least they were good. I liked the opener with Ifer and Jesus being good underdogs. I didn't expect much out of the women but they kept the pace up, got stiff and the crowd liked it. Nihan/Marovik was a nice little hoss match. The big show is tonight so we will see how things go, but it was always going to be tough with the main having a mystery opponent. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 and I thought it was good.

Jose Navarro vs Jax Di Franco

Jax runs in and gets stomped. Jose hits forearms then facekicks him. Jose drops him with punches. Jose misses elbow drops. Jax fights back and is thrown down backwards. Jose rainmakers him then pumphandle slams him for the win.

Thoughts: It was a quick squash with Jose roughing Jax up and taking few hits en route to victory. Jose just wrestled in street clothes here.

Jose stomps him more after.

La Wizard Analiza

Wizard talks to Savio Vega. They hug. Wiz talks about Savio's mystery man at the next show. Vega says he's not bringing just any mystery wrestler in but he's bringing in the new IWA champ. He says this guy is worthy to carry the IWA Title and represent him, unlike Jay Blake. He says Jay Blake is worthless and not worthy of holding the title. Vega says him and his mystery fan will finish off Jay and chop him up with a steak. He says he will spit on him and crush him. He says he has no idea how much he hates him. Vega says things are done his way or the highway.

Johnny Blaze vs Jay Blake

Thoughts: The match was fine here and similar to the last match Jay had with his knee being worked on and him fighting off interference. I thought Blaze did a decent job as the heel on offense.

We then hear soundbytes of Vega's promo earlier with clips of him and Jay Blake to close the show.

Overall thoughts: There wasn't a lot to see here. It was basically a filler episode with a lot of shilling for the next show and some clips we had already seen. It seemed like they ran out of new footage. We had 3 new matches that weren't very long. Atomo/Carlos and Blaze/Blake were both decent bouts though. Jose Navarro also won a squash. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 and thought it was average.

Savo Vega is on the phone and I believe he's talking with The Undertaker of WWE fame (They were old WWF buddies and both were part of the backstage BSK friends group). Vega says the company is good and they are working hard to make it the best in PR. Vega says his wrestlers get paid before they get in the ring. He says he's working but we see him playing solitaire on the phone. He says he has a medical and dental plan for the wrestlers too. He says he's planning an IWA cruise as well for them. He says he will take the food out of his mouth so they can eat if he has to. Vega confirms his men are being well paid.

Fernando Tonos interrupts and Vega says Tonos is happy and wants to talk about something good. Vega hangs up the phone and tells Tonos he's busy. Tonos gives him an envelope and says the board to decided to annul Vega's presidency ceremony. Tonos says the board annulled his retirement as a wrestler too. He says Vega will have to wrestle again.

Vega says he can't fight and has injuries to his back and neck. He says his finger hurts and he can't move his middle finger straight. He then flips him off. Tonos says Vega always has excuses to evade his responsibility and financial obligations. He says those won't fly. Tonos says they conducted an investigation into his time as president. Tonos says it emerged that Vega as paying wrestlers on the roster who don't exist.

Tonos says Vega made a mistake and says he put the fake wrestlers salaries into his account. Tonos says not to disrespect him. Vega tells him to look at himself in the mirror and says no one will force him to get into the ring. Vega says he's retired. Tonos says he's obligated to sign that. Vega says that if Tonos' gang wants a war, there will be an ugly war. Vega says things are going to go his way. He says he loves him and appreciates him.

Thoughts: It was a good match. Atomo was your classic babyface here. He sold his beating, got a nice comeback in then took out the interfering wrestler instead of going for the win and got beaten over it. I thought Atomo did a good job and I'd like to see this one again.

Tonos is on the phone with an unknown person. He says he told Savio Vega about the situation but says Vega threatened him and everyone as usual.

IWA Vendetta is on 2/21/26.

La Wizard Analiza

Wizard talks to Pedro Portillo III. PP says he feels glorification and gives Wiz the belt so he can feel what it's like to be champ. Wiz says he has bad news. Wiz says Super Atomo cashed in his Mayor's Cup to get a title shot at PP. PP says look at just what happened when he beat him. PP says what's wrong with people? He says everyone wants to dethrone him. He says he's the common denominator and says he knows why everyone wants to face him. PP says he wrestled guys at the same level as him when he started and Atomo is trying to face people above his level. PP says he will give him the match but Atomo will lose to the best Puerto Rican wrestler of the last 25 years. Wizard says that match will be on 2/21.

La Silla Caliente

Raul Magnum (one of the announcers) talks to Excellent Mantel. Raul calls him a traitor. Mantel wants to be called Jose "El Mencho" Navarro now. Jose says he had an accident in 2021 and he either died or nearly died in the hospital. He says Pupe Jackson didn't visit him in the hospital then. Jose says he was the world tag team champion and says all the success of The Drunken Express was due to him. He says Pupe Jackson is trash. Raul tells him Pupe will return and Jose doesn't care. Jose wants to leave. He tells Raul to send a message to Pupe. He then kicks Raul in the nuts and hits him with a potted plant. Raul's kid comes in and checks on him. Jose says to forgive him and that he's sorry. He then hits the kid with the plant. He says not to forget his name and says his road to the top begins now.

IWA World Title - Jay Blake (c) vs Manu

Savio Vega is with Manu.

Both guys pose on the buckles and lock up a couple of times. Jay hits punches and boots. They trade shots. Jay flying back elbows him. Jay suplexes him for 2. Manu clips him then attacks the leg. Manu leglocks him and stretch mufflers him. Manu hits a big uranage for 2.

Jay is thrown out. Vega boots Jay outside. Jay and Manu each get some shots in. Jay's leg is banged off the apron edge. Jay is abused on the bottom rope and Vega punches Jay. Jay forearms and rolls up Manu for 2. Manu hits a nice lariat. Manu crotches Jay on the post then bangs his leg off of it. Manu chokes and punches Jay.

Vega punches Jay and the ref sees it. The ref yells at Vega outside and he ejects Vega. Jay hits a stunner on Manu and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a good bout here with the heels cheating, getting caught and then Jay picking up the win off Savio Vega's ejection. Jay sold and Manu had some decent looking offense. We only had one botch here and Jay got thrown off of it so it was forgivable.

Tonos talks to Raul in the back and asks what happened. Raul says Jose crossed the line. Tonos asked what happened. Raul says Jose touched his son. Raul says he wants Jose face to face in the ring or the parking lot. He says he doesn't care whether IWA allows it or not. He says he's seeking revenge. He says he's not a fighter but he doesn't turn down a good fight. Tonos says he will authorize the match.

Overall thoughts: It was a good show as usual. Portillo/Atomo was a traditional match with Atomo being a good face. Blake/Manu was also good with Blake selling and the heels cheating. We also got some explanation on Excellent Mantel's turn, but it was a little weak. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 and I thought it was a good show.

WWE Monday Night Raw 5/25/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/05/wwe-monday-night-raw-5182026.html

We are in Columbus, Ohio. Michael Cole and Corey Graves are on commentary.

Paul Heyman is in the ring. He says he's here to hype a match that needs no hype in Oba vs Brock.

Brock Lesnar does a video. He congratulates Oba on beating him at Mania. He says it will cost him more than he ever imagined. He says Oba's whooping of him was humbling and made him say, "that's it, I'm done". He says it doesn't sit well with him and it won't end that way. Brock says he can take a whooping but can Oba? He says he will conquer Oba and will rule over Oba.

Paul says everyone will get to see history play out. He says Oba has awakened The Beast. Oba Femi interrupts and comes out. Oba asks what Paul thinks Brock awoke in him. He asks what four F-5's awoke in him. Oba says he won't hurt him and says he will retire Brock for the 2nd time.

Oba signs the contract on Paul and says this is the final chapter. He says he was fighting to beat him last time and is fighting to kill him this time.

We see various wrestlers arrive and see Roman knock away someone's clipboard.

Evans flying knees him. Evans tries another springboard cutter and is hit with a backcracker. Penta wins with a canadian destroyer.

Thoughts: I didn't like it. The table bump should have really put Evans out and the cutter on the apron looked like it hurt as well. It was just Evans doing a lot of brainless flying and it wasn't very smart.

We are told Logan Paul suffered a torn tricep and is out for months. The Vision is now down to just Austin Theory and Bron Breakker (who doesn't seem to be fully active yet) making it one of the most cursed stables ever.

Austin Theory goes up to Paul Heyman and asks if he should just give the title to him. Paul says Logan knows this isn't ballet. Paul says in their contracts it says "The Vision" and he says it any 2 Vision members of his choice. He says it'll be Austin and Bron Breakker defending the titles. Austin then hugs Heyman and shocks him.

Austin says he wants to take out all the people who got Logan hurt. Heyman says Austin knows what he has to do tonight and to whom.

Joe Hendry sings the "Can We Fire Logan Paul?" song in the ring. Austin Theory then attacks Joe Hendry with a chair.

Thoughts: Joe has not been wrestling the last few weeks. I assume he's injured and I wonder if this is a way to write him off.

Seth Rollins talks to Angelo Dawkins in the back. He says he did what Ford asked and says he's here to say worry. He says The Vision is the weakest they have ever been but are the most dangerous they have been. Seth says they can end The Vision for good if they get together.

Montez Ford walks in and asks how many times we need to do this. Ford says nothing good happens when Seth is around. Seth says nothing good happens when he's not around. Seth says they don't have to be friends, just work together to get rid of The Vision. Seth says only one of them is a multi-time world champ and it's not him. Ford says he's never stabbed Seth in the back and asks where his brothers are. Ford says they both think they are the best and challenges Seth to show him who the best is tonight. Seth agrees.

We get a video on the Grande vs Grande mask vs mask match.

Je'Von Evans and Penta talk in the back. Evans says he apologizes and says he's frustrated with himself. He says he will see him for the title again soon. Penta says no problem and they bump fists.

Thoughts: It was average. They had some sloppy moments here which hurt things. I feel like we've seen this match many times already as well.

Roman Reigns and Adam Pearce talk. Adam says Fatu should be fired. Roman says he gets it. He says Fatu keeps pulling aces out of his sleeve like tribal combat. Roman says if Fatu loses, he needs to serve him or get out. He says if Fatu beats him, good luck, because they are all screwed.

We get a video on Memorial Day.

LA Knight comes out to talk. He says he hasn't talked to us since Wrestlemania. He says he put The Vision in his rear view mirror but Jey and Jimmy Uso have been doing things differently. He says he'll be in King of the Ring this year. He says he's going to get a title shot and will aim for Roman Reigns' title. He says all Roman Reigns is doing is stirring up old Bloodline stuff.

Jimmy Uso comes out. Jimmy ays he respects LA and says he fought side by side him at Mania. LA says he's been a victim of The Bloodline. Jimmy says the whole roster has issues with The Bloodline and things got ugly for everyone. Jimmy says they did what they had to do. Jimmy says if LA wins KOTR, he's got a fair shot at Roman.

LA asks if he's being honest with him or himself. He says Jimmy is coming out as the 3rd fiddle to Roman and he doesn't want to see him become Roman's errand boy again. He says to take it as a warning. Jimmy says this is LA's warning shot. Jimmy says if Jey was here, LA wouldn't be able to talk. LA says it's just like what they did to Fatu. Jimmy says to tread lightly as his family will become LA's business if keeps disrespecting Roman. LA says if family business becomes his business, he will make sure it goes out of business.

Adam Pearce and Rey Mysterio talk in the back. Ethan Page comes in. He says Adam gave Evans a title match tonight and says he wants his rematch. Adam says they are talking about a potential IC title match and says rematches need earned. Page asked what Rey to earn the title match. Rusev walks in. Page says they are conspiring against Rusev and says Rey will jump the IC Title line. Rusev asks Rey how he got this title shot. Rey says let's go if he has to face Rusev to get a title shot. Rusev threatens Rey.

Ford hits a high top rope frogsplash inside for 2. Ford misses a 450 off the top and Seth curbstomps him for the pin.

Thoughts: It was nice to see a different match than usual. Ford did his usual stuff and the match was okay. I don't quite think it got to the next level though for some reason. It's hard to understand why Ford isn't used in these roles more often as he does well in them.

Austin Theory chairs Dawkins on the stage after then chairs his head into the ground. Pearce and others then break it up.

Ford complains to Adam Pearce in the back. Seth comes in and asks if Dawkins is okay. Dawkins is in the trainer's room. Ford says Dawkins needs "us" and it appears Ford is now willing to work with Seth. Seth says this has to end and he has to cut the end off the snake. He says he wants Bron Breakker as soon as possible.

Becky Lynch is interviewed. She says some people get punched in the face and become the biggest star and some realize they are out of their zone. Becky says Sol hasn't gotten a clean win since she got here and her time is running out. She says she's coming around and says welcome to the big time.

Winner gets an IC Title shot - Rey Mysterio vs Rusev

Ethan Page is on commentary for this. Rusev has a noticeable gut here.

Rey 619's Rusev in the gut. Rusev blocks a 619. Rey then rolls him up and pins him.

Thoughts: What we got was alright. The finish was a little weak but they had the idea with the power vs high flyer match. Rey had one of his better showing as of late.

Rusev stomps Rey after. Dragon Lee comes out and helps out. Ethan Page goes after Lee but Lee rebound germans him and superkicks him out. Lee tope con hilos Page then Rey 619's Rusev. Lee hits destino on Rusev.

Austin Theory is told by Adam Pearce that his night is over after he attacked 2 people tonight. Austin says wasn't it enough when his partners got injured. Adam says he's enough and says Austin is done for the night. Heyman then gets Austin out. Austin then stares at Alpha Academy as he leaves. Otis says it smells like bad news.

Adam Pearce is in the ring to host the Fatu/Reigns tribal combat contract signing.

Fatu signs his contract dangerously throws computer chairs at security. Security then gets in the ring to stop him. Roman Reigns comes out and signs his contract. Roman tells security to leave them. Roman says Fatu can't touch him until Italy. Roman says all Fatu had to do was acknwlodge him and they could have moved on. Fatu says "hell naw". He says he's not like everyone else. He says Roman is the reason why the family lives the life they have and why they are on top of the mountain. he says Roman could only take them so far and it's time for a change and another direction.

Fatu asks if Roman lived by the code of The Bloodline a Backlash or did he bend the rules to beat him? He says Roman had to do what he had to do but says anything goes in Italy. He says he will dogwalk his b!tch @ss. He says when he takes over this, everyone will have consequences.

Roman says Fatu will be the shotcaller and the head of the table if he beats him. He says he will be walking him like a dog if he can't and will domesticate him. He says Fatu will serve him and learn from him. He says in time, Fatu will love his tribal chief. Fatu says it looks like a win-win for him. He says he still has a job here if Roman beats him. He says when he dog walk's Roman, everyone will learn to acknowledge him.

Fatu offers a handshake and Roman shakes hands. They put their heads together and the show ends in what I thought was a weird ending.

Overall thoughts: Raw has 3 matches at Clash in Italy and all 3 are rematches. They did an average job building up two of them here and did little for Becky/Sol. In-ring wise, I would say it was an average night though Seth/Ford was the best match on here. The show was fine and I'd give it a 6 out of 10. There wasn't a lot of must see stuff here and lots of people were missing, as is usually the case these days.

They shake hands after.

Thoughts: It went long and Atlantis got injured pretty early on, which changed the match up a lot. Blue did a nice job firing up and trying to make up for it but you could tell they were working on the fly a bit. It wasn't bad for the circumstances but did drag a little.

The announcer then closes the show.

Overall thoughts: The opener wasn't that good as expected. The second and third matches were both a lot of fun. The third match was the best match on the show. I didn't care for the women's match or the semi main. The main had issues with Atlantis getting injured soon into it but they did what they could with it and it wasn't that bad. I'd give it a low 6 out of 10 as the good was better than the bad. The show was okay overall.
