The afternoon show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/marigold-952026-dream-star-grand-prix.html

Thoughts: Things weren't going that bad, then Mega came in and destroyed the match. It's not like she botched, but she brought a different pace to it and lost the flow. Her bad offense also didn't help things. It wasn't good.

Thoughts: The crowd sucked here and didn't help this one. The faces didn't do a great job of working the crowd either. The wrestling was acceptable here but it never got any further than that. 

DREAM STAR Grand Prix 2026 Block B Match - CHIAKI vs. Komomo Minami

Goto does an air raid crash variation but Rea no sells it.  Goto lariats her then chokeslams her for 2. Goto emerald flowsions her and pins her.

Thoughts: Rea should have been DQ'd early on for using the chair on Goto. Rea worked the arm a bit here before going down. Goto used her weight on her near the end, hitting hard lariats and slamming her down. There was some decent stuff in this and I would say it was acceptable. Goto got some good pops for her lariats here.

Thoughts: Big upset here with Yuuka pinning Miku. The match was too one-sided though and never really got to being that good. The crowd didn't help things either. Miku needed to stiff Yuuka a lot more and Yuuka needed to show more spirit to help make this work. It was a waste of a Miku loss.

Thoughts: It was an okay main. We only had one botch. There was a lot of action, they kept the pace up and things just went well for the most part. It's nothing you would remember but this went exactly as they had planned it to and that's a win.

Erina's team talks on the mic after. 

In the post-show interviews, Mila says her opponets got lucky. Aleah James complains about getting jumped before the match. Mila says they had to play games as the other team knew they were more talented. 

Diana Strong says her match was tough and says she won her first match tonight. She says it's just the beginning.  

Overall thoughts: The opener wasn't good. The second match was acceptable. Chiaki/Komomo was average. Chika/Rea was acceptable as was Diana/Chi. Yuzuki/Shoko was average. Miku/Yuuka was a little below average. The main was the best thing on here and it was okay. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 overall. It was an average show and like with the afternoon show, the crowd was terrible and brought down everything. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 overall. 

AEW Collision 9/19/2026

AEW Collision 9/19/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/aew-collision-9122026.html

We are in Charleston, WV. Paul Wight, Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness are on commentary.

Jon Moxley does a promo. He says Will Ospreay chose conflict and there may be collateral. He says everything is Will's responsibility now. He says his problem with the match isn't that he will lose, it's that he might win. He says he gave Will everything he had. He says he's climbed up from hell and nobody understands the cliff Will will fall off of at All Out. He says the Universe's pull is gentle but then it pulls hard and that's gravity.

Thoughts: This was a wild one with them both taking big bumps. DA hit a nasty tope and landed on his head on the apron. Reed tope con hilo'd a chair and did his cutter over the top rope to the floor. It was quite spectacular and had a ton of highlights. It wasn't smart and the selling wasn't good but this was crazy enough that I'd still say this was good Reed's really gaining stock in these singles matches on Collision and if they keep giving him time to shine, he may get somewhere in AEW on his own. Paul Wight was popping like crazy for Reed here.

Steven Borden, Darby and Zach Wentz all check on Reed after. Darby shakes Reed's hand. Darby gets on the mic and says let's give it up to Myron. He says Reed showed everyone that he belonged tonight. 

Darby tells Borden that teaming with his dad was one of the best moments of his life. He says him and Borden have a chance to get a shot at the tag titles he and Sting never lost. Darby says they are jumping into the fire at All Out.

Borden says he knows how much Darby winning the tag titles meant. He says he's still new to this. He says he will lay whatever he has to offer on he line to make Darby tag champ again. He says if they can win the titles, they are checking 2 boxes - being tag champ and being tag champ with Darby as his partner. Borden says let's go take the #1 Contender spot and the tag titles.

We get a video on Tomasso Ciampa vs Kazuchika Okaa.

We hear from The Don Callis Family after Dynamite. Don says Stokeley Hathaway lost them the match but his boys are in pristine shape. He tells his boys to beat Darby and Borden and get the tag titles home. Kevin says he didn't trust teaming with the flamingo in Kyle but it's time they rectify the situation with the tag titles. Kyle says he didn't trust the vision but it's working. He says all they have to do is beat Borden and Darby and they will cake walk them at All Out. He says they will bring gold back to the family which might be needed after if Okada loses to Ciampa. Okada tells Ciampa to be careful what he wishes for as he's got The Rainmaker. He says he won't be taking his title. 

The Bang Bang Gang talk and Juice blows a whistle. Jucie says their current record is nothing to be proud of. He says they lost last week but they are still a team and their boss owns an NFL football team. Juice says they challenge The Dogs and The Death Riders to a tailgate brawl. He says anything goes. This would be before the PPV next week as the pre-show will be called the Tailgate Brawl.

Thoughts: I liked it. Zay showed some aggression and put up a bit of a fight before going down. Thek was solid as usual. It was a nice little underdog vs favorite match and one of Zayda's better bouts. This was okay.

We get a video on Thekla vs Willow.

Idolo misses a corner meteora. DG rolls him up for 2. Idolo hits 2 suplexes and DG grounded sleepers him. Idolo does a top rope moonsault into a standing moonsault for 2. DG rolls him into a pin attempt. They definitely seem to both pin each other but the ref gives Idolo the pin.

Thoughts: Tony Schiavone thought there was a pin here before the pin that was counted and I kind of agree. Not sure what happened, but it seemed like the ref counted the pin twice. I was fine with this match. It was competitive and DG got snippy with Idolo. Idolo did his usual flying as well.

Idolo and DG to shake hands and The Death Riders jump Idolo after. Pac says he beat Idolo once and can do it again. He says he's challenging him to a match next week at All Out. Pac gives him the mic to say something then Pac pump kicks Idolo. Idolo is then group stomped on. Francesco Akira comes in to help and he faces a 5v1.

Thoughts: The selling could have been a little better here. It was competitive and the constant pin attempts made it engaging. It was alright.

Yuta nails Mike after and stomps him. The Death Riders and The Dogs then join in. The Bang Bang Gang then come out and all of them fight. Security and refs come out to try and stop it.

Jack Perry does a video outside with a red filter. He says  he's on the other side of the unknown and he needs to walk with killers. He says he must face the best to become the best and puts a knife in a tree.

Queen running knees  South hard against the ropes and pins her.

Thoughts: Mina and Queen are both happy to do raunchy stuff and they did a lot of that here. Jaye didn't get to do much here. I assume Mina and Queen will be a team for a bit. It was a squash with a lot of fan service.

Nick Wayne does a promo. He says he almost beat Jericho and says Jericho trying to shake his hand after p!sses him off. He says he sees through him. He says Jericho didn't teach him anything but he taught him something. He says maybe Jericho doesn't know what he doesn't know.

The Death Riders get in the ring after. 

Overall thoughts: It was the usual Collision with a bunch of random matches, but most of them were decent. The opener was good with tons of highlights though it had some issues.  Thekla/Zayda was an okay bout. Pac won a short squash that wasn't too special. I was fine with Idolo/Garcia. Mike/Yuta was alright. Queen and Mina did a tag that was them mostly dancing around and doing fan service. The main was acceptable. I'd give it a 7 out of 10. Most of the wrestling was fine even if it was random and even if few storylines were advanced. I was okay with mostly everything on here and it was a good show.

NWA Powerrr 9/19/2026

NWA Powerrr 9/19/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/nwa-powerrr-9122026.html

We are in Philadelphia, PA at the 2300 Arena. Joe Galli, Danny Dealz and Billy Corgan are on commentary.

Kyle Davis interviews The Cazana's/Country Gentlemen in the ring. The ref is holding a bad and Kyle wants to know what's in it. Joe asks if the fans missed them and said they were on a worldwide tour. Joe says they are the champs and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Joe then said he heard The Pirates are in town. He says Willie Stargill whipped "The Filet's" (The Phillies). He says Damage of The BFT's hasn't been here for months and it's another way for Billy Corgan to screw them.

Joe then says he commissioned a jeweler to make new tag belts with white straps and he gives his boys the new belts. Joe says when you are the champs, you do and say what you want and no one can do anything about it. Joe says that's by the book.

NWA World Tag Titles - The Country Gentlemen (AJ and KC Cazana) (c) vs Blunt Force Trauma (Damage and Carnage)

BFT get hit from behind before the bell. BFT get the edge in the corners. AJ hits corner spears and a double chop on Carn. Carn lariats AJ down. Dam comes in. AJ takes corner attacks then Dam shoulders Carn over. Dam stomps AJ and bangs his arm off the mat.

Dam comes in and lariats down The Cazana's. Dam spinebusters AJ. Carn spears KC. Joe grabs his branding iron and AJ hits Dam in the face with Joe's book. AJ then pins Dam.

Thoughts: It was average. We had a cheap ending here. The bout was basically random with BFT earning a title shot despite not teaming for months. It's not like it was bad, but it never got to the next level. BFT aren't exactly faces and weren't that over here. Damage has lost a bunch of weight.

Kratos does a promo. He says he's the most feared and says tonight is another chance to prove that he's the best big man in wrestling. He says he won The Crockett Cup last time he was here and now the landscape has changed as he is alone. He says the era of Kratos begins tonight.

Carson Drake vs Silas Mason for the NWA Title is next week.

We get a promo for the 5-way #1 Contender's Match.

NWA Title #1 Contender's Match - Talos vs Kratos vs PB Smooth vs Effy vs Heath

Everyone fights to start. Talos big boots Kratos down. Talos and PB get hit from behind. PB boots Talos in the chest and lariats him over the top. Kratos double lariats Effy and Heath. Kratos then suicide dives the other 4 men outside. 

We go to break.

Mims and The Pope talk outside. Mims says things didn't go as they were supposed to last week and they aren't on the win streak they should be on. Pope says they should be. Pope says things need to change if this thing will continue. Pope says he has to listen. Pope says let's wrap this thing up and go.

We return from break.

Effy rough ryder's Kratos then kicks the ropes into Talos' crotch. Pastor C-Lo gets on the apron and Effy hits him. PB punches Effy then standing blue thunders him. Heath throws PB out and steals the pin on Effy. Heath wins.

Thoughts: Heath winning was random. He just got here and won this one. I figured he had the lowest chance of winning and was very surprised to see him pull this off. I don't really know why Talos had to be included in this loss. What we got was acceptable and it had a lot of people coming in, hitting a spot then fighting someone else who swapped in.

We get clips of The Hardway retaining their US Tag Titles. We then see their interview from last time where The McCord Collection jumped them.

The McCord Collection does a promo. McCord says they know about The Hardway. He says all of his men have had a hard road to get here and each of them are champs to be. He says Gilroy and Bones deserve a US Title shot. McCord says The Hardway will lose to The Collection and that you can believe.

She says her grandfather started his career in NWA 80 years ago. She says she's here to handle family business. She says no one has wrestled more sisters than her. She says The Paige Sisters are at the top. 

She says she knows The Paige Sisters want this more than anything in the world but only one of them will make it. Nat tells them to take a good look at each other and figure out who will twist the knife in the other. She says she came here from the WWE mountain top to twist the knife into both of them. She says Stu taught her that everybody loves you but when you think you know them, it's the perfect time to take them down.

We see last week's promo with Silas Mason and Alex Taylor about Alex's dog.

It's Me...The Carson Drake Experience

Silas Mason is Drake's guest. Drake says Mason will be a former NWA champ soon. Drake asks how it feels to know that his reign is on a timer. Silas says we are all on a timer and says he could be struck by lightning when he walks out of his house. He says everyday is life or death. He says pressure makes diamonds and pressure is a privilege that Drake never had. 

Drake asks why he can't seem to keep a group of friends? Drake says it's because he's one of the most abhorrent people he has met. He says Silas is a nobody from a nobody town while he's the most successful man in this company. Silas says he's had rocky relationships and things didn't work out like he wanted to. He says he can look in the mirror and know he carried the title with dignity and respect and that's why they respect him. He says they know if Drake was behind the 8-ball, he'd crack in a heartbeat. Drake says at at least his house didn't burn down. Silas says he will light him on fire in their match. Drake says he will bet his Rolex he will win the title. Silas says he won't have to bet that as he'll have to bet his life on it.

Texas Death Match - Ricky Morton vs Alex Taylor

Kerry and Ricky Morton beat up AT in the back before it starts. AT is sent into the rails and his head is banged off the apron. Ricky pours tacks in the ring.

We go to break.

The Paige Sisters and Tommy Henry do a promo. Kylie says they are the tag champs and won the titles again. Kenzie says she stole the pin. Tommy agrees. Kylie says they won the titles though.

Ricky hits punches and AT fires back. Kerry and Alex fight in the ring. Alex low blows him. Alex spits tacks in Ricky's face then he cradle shocks him. Alex then pins him.

Thoughts: It got cut up by the break and we really didn't see all that much of it. What we did get was mostly 2v1's and weapons usage. There was also no blood. It was a little disappointing.

Overall thoughts: The World Tag Title match was average with a cheap ending. The 5-way match was acceptable but Heath Slater won for unknown reasons. We didn't get all that much of Ricky Morton vs Alex Taylor and that bout was disappointing. Nattie Neidhart of WWE fame also did a promo here but it wasn't anything special. We also got a little build for the Silas/Drake NWA Title match. We didn't get much follow up from last week here which is typical. I'd give the show a 5 out of 10. It was an average show as usual.

Thoughts: It wasn't that good. There were a lot of sloppy moments here as always seems to be the case when the joshi girls and luchadoras mix. They had tons of time to work on the match too as the joshi girls have been down there for weeks, but it still didn't work. I don't really get why they had the joshi girls win either since they are going home.

Scott D'Amore of Maple Leaf Wrestling puts some good words in for CMLL's 93rd Anniversary.

Thoughts: JJ got the edge on Blue, Blue made his comeback and won. It was average, short and simple. They didn't really get the most out of either guy here and it was kind of a waste.

Wrestlers are in the ring and they unveil the 93rd Anniversary logo. Salvatore Lutteroth then talks. He thanks the fans for keeping CMLL running for 93 years.

The owner of RevPro congratulates CMLL for 93 years.He says they can't wait to welcome CMLL to the UK for FantasticaMania UK.

CMLL World Tag Team Title Four Way Tag Team Match - Los Hermanos Chavez (Angel de Oro & Niebla Roja) (c) vs. Los Villanos (El Hijo del Villano III & Villano III Jr.) vs. Los Hermanos Calavera (Calavera Jr. I & Calavera Jr. II) vs. El Sky Team (Mascara Dorada & Neon)

The match started on the apron before everyone got in. We had a 4 person stereo dive spot here at one point which was cool. Oro and Roja did a neat top rope dropkick into a german and splash on Los Villanos. We got a sequence of near stereo spots. A Calavera did a nice tornillo over the top to the outside and MD did his usual 2nd rope SSP outside. Neon jumped up to the top rope and hit a spanish fly onto a Calavera onto others. A Calavera then took a running sitout powerbomb + top rope splash and was pinned by Roja.

Thoughts: It was tough to follow as everyone wore the same outfits as their partners. It didn't go that long but it worked in this match's favor as they didn't overdo it too much. It had a lot of highlights and I was actually fine with this one.

Thoughts: The finish didn't have much to do with the rest of the match as they flew around all match yet ended this on a submission. It was a spotfest with them doing all kinds of big spots and them not selling anything much. At least they did have the high-flying match I expected, but it wasn't good.

They go on he 2nd rope and Sob fire thunder's his neck on the top buckle. Sob then fire thunders him in the ring and pins him.

Thoughts: It was acceptable. It didn't have a ton of flying and they had more of a grudge match here. They didn't overdo it too much which surprised me. Sob's fire thunder on the top buckle was something new.

The NJPW President Sugabayashi congratulates CMLL on 93 years.

CMLL World Women's Title Four Way Match - Persephone (c) vs. Tessa Blanchard vs. Starlight Kid vs. Mina Shirakawa

Thoughts: What a lame ending. Someone once suggested that a four-way end in a DQ. I hope they are happy about how it worked out because it was as dumb as it sounded. It was people coming in and out randomly and 2 people doing moves to 2 others for the majority of this one. It was a bit chaotic and not particularly great. I found it to be average, but it did work out a little better than I expected. That ending was absolute trash though. 

Tony Khan wishes CMLL a happy anniversary. 

Volador Jr. vs. Andrade El Idolo

Thoughts: I didn't like it. It was like a Sabu match where there was a big spot, they'd lay around for a bit then do another another big spot. It was slower, the big spots didn't mean all that much and it just got plain boring by the end. Vol wrestled in his mask throughout the whole match.

Vol takes his mask off after and hugs Idolo.

Thoughts: They traded a bunch of submissions early as expected and did some 3-man submission spots. It turned into a more normal match later with them doing various signature moves. It was something different but I would just say it was average. 3-way's are tough to do and even tougher when the 3 guys aren't juniors.

Eliminatorio De Parejas Increibles Four Way Match - Mistico &Averno vs. Barbaro Cavernario & Dragon Rojo Jr. vs. Star Jr. & Zandokan Jr. vs. Ultimo Guerrero & Templario

Thoughts: Like all 4-way's, it had a lot of people flying around, coming in and out and just a bunch of general chaos. It wasn't boring but the format really limited things. It will always be bizarre to me that the winners get to stay in these matches instead of leaving, because they are at risk of losing their hair or mask. I had figured Rojo's team would lose here since they are not top superstars and one of them losing their hair is an easy way out.

Lucha de Apuesta Mask Vs. Hair Match - Averno vs. Mistico

Av beats up Mist outside and crotches him on the rail. Mist's crotch is rammed into the post. Av rips up Mist's mask on the buckles. Av boots Mist on the ramp. Av drops Mist face first on the stage steps. Mist is then sent into the ring steps.

Mist springboard twisting crossbodies him. Av hits lariats on him and Mist la mistica's him. Av then submits (and somehow knocks the ref down while doing it).

Thoughts: Mistico won as expected. There comes a point where you can't really do mask/hair matches when stars get too big and Mist is one of them. They couldn't have sold this match on it's own because anyone with a brain would know Mist wasn't losing. They tried. I would have worked the injury angle more as that was the only feasible way Av could have won here. What we got was okay but they didn't break any new ground here and with their histories and styles, you can't. This match wasn't well built to necessarily, but you can always run it because they have been feuding forever.

Averno gets some of his hair cut after. He gives some to Mist and raises his hand. Av then boots Mist. He attacks/unmasks Mist, Neon and Mascara Dorada.

The announcers then close the show. 

Overall thoughts: It was one of the longer CMLL shows at a little over 3 hours and 30 minutes. It was very different than a usual CMLL show as this was mostly all multi-man matches and singles matches. There was only one trios match. The problem with the mutli-man matches is that there's too many people involved and they get chaotic with people hitting a move, going out and getting replaced by the next guy. They got old and it was like seeing the same thing over and over again. The singles matches weren't that different either. I didn't really love anything here all that much as there were tons of indy style spotfests. I don't even think there was a match of the night here. I'd give it a 4 out of 10. The card was very loaded, but it didn't lead to quality. This was not good and very disappointing.

WWC Superestrellas de la Lucha Libre 9/13/2026

WWC Superestrellas de la Lucha Libre 9/13/2026

---
Axel Cruz and Abel Durant are our hosts.

Orlando Toledo and Intelecto Cinco Estrellas talk seemingly after Cinco won the Caribbean Title. Cinco has his Caribbean title and says it's the beginning of a real strategy to get the Universal Title too. Toledo calls Victor Jovica and says he wants to talk to him. H says Intelecto is the Caribbean champ and says he should have a chance at the Universal Title on 9/13 in Aguadilla. Jovica agrees but wants the Caribbean Title on the line too. Toledo gets mad. Jovica tells him it's mandatory. Toledo tells Intelecto what was said and wants to be his lawyer. They then say let's go celebrate.

The hosts talk about tonight's show in Aguadilla. They then talk about the 9/26 Septiembre Negro show.

We then see clips of these two matches that were shown yesterday:

WWC Puerto Rican Title - Xavant (c) vs Tony Leyenda vs "La Amenaza" Bryan 

Special Ref is Orlando Toledo: Wilfredo Rivera vs El Informante

We then see clips of the segment after the Rivera/Informante match with Paparazzi and La Sombra challenging Los Informantes and Toledo to a match.

Xavant does a promo during the Rivera/Informante match. He says the champ has arrived and he's excited to go to Aguadilla. He says there's a lot of talent in WWC and they are hungry. He says we all all Puerto Ricans and have a heart. He says they are the chosen ones of PR. Xavant talks about his match vs Bryan and Leyenda tonight. He calls Tony Leyenda a pigeon and says he got his title shot due to crying. He say he will clip his wings. He says he will retain his title and persevere until he triumphs.

Chicano does a promo. He says he's interesting in hurting Ray Gonzalez tonight, not winning. He says Ray told people he almost finished Chicano off but Chicano says it's the opposite. He says there's a bounty for tonight's match but he will hurt Ray for free. He says this will end once and for all tonight.

Ray Gonzalez does a promo. He says the war with Chicano continues. He says Mike Nice saved him last time but Mike and Orlando Colon won't be there when they fight. Ray says the war will continue and he asks if Ray can collect the bounty. He says what happened last time will be nothing compared to what happens next time. He says he will checkmate Chicano.

Abel Durant says Xavant will face Romeo Quevado at Septiembre Negro. He then see a video on Romeo. He says they said the temperature in PR was rising and it's because he arrived. He says he has landed in an island on tears with people living in government coupons. He says he's been waiting 20 years to come to WWC and is taking what belongs to him. He says Xavant is a politician in a wig and says no one will be able to save him. 

Abel then talks about Mike Nice turning on Oscar Benabe. We see a Mike Nice promo. He talks about a kid playing with a bird who couldn't fly. He says the bird actually could fly but didn't know he could. He says WWC cut off his wings but the wings grew black. He says he will take flight again and will begin with Oscar. He says Oscar showed him that he's weak, fragile and lazy. 

Oscar Benabe talks. He says he was told to careful who he trusted in wrestling. He says he thought him and Mike had something special as a team but sometimes lessons are learned the hard way. He says Mike breaking his trust hurt him most. He says he felt the blood but it's fine. He says when he put his hands on him, Mike will feel the same.

Abel shows us clips of a John Hawking vs Intelecto Cinco Estrellas match for the WWC Caribbean Title where Cinco won the belt. Estrellas headbutted him with an iron mask and pinned him. 

Abel shows us clips of the Zcion RT1 vs Lightning cage match. RT1 went to escape the cage but Lou Forza and Amaddeo Sole block the door. Lightning and RT1 then fall out of the cage at the same time and the refs argue over who won. Forza and Lightning then take RT1 in the cage after and beat him up. Sole gives them barbed wire and they tie RT1 to the bottom rope. Wilfredo Rivera and El Payaso Makabro then slowly climb the cage to save him.

Abel then shows us a video on the feud between Orlando Colon and Eddie Colon. Orlando says Eddie brought him back after 3 years. He says Eddie has been after him for 3 years, calling him a failure. Orlando says Eddie called him back because he was going to lose everything and Orlando could save him. Orlando says Eddie doesn't realize that he's the problem and embodies the evils he wants to get rid of like greed, pride and glory. He says these are the symbols of stagnation. Orlando says his crew is the solution and is ending the problem. He says Eddie did the same thing he did 30 years ago - run onto Jovica's lap for help. He says Alberto Del Rio isn't wanted in PR or Mexico and will be another victim of Eddie's problems. He says progress is inevitable and new blood is inevitable.

Intelecto Cinco Estrellas does a promo. He says Victor Jovica isn't putting up a barrier on his career by denying him a title rematch. He says as the new Caribbean champ, he's ready to defend it against Zcion RT1. He says Zcion RT1 knows his win over him was luck. He says lightning won't strike twice. He says RT1's fans know he is weaker than Intelecto. He says he knows RT1's weakness. He tells him to stay healthy so he can face him on 9/13.

Zcion RT1 does a promo. He says we either end the story tonight wherever we have to do it  - whether it be in the parking lot, public square or the beach. He tells Intelecto Cinco Estrellas to be read for the fight of his life. He says his fans want something special and ti's the end of Cinco's career. He says he will be waiting for him in Aguadilla.

The hosts hype up the Septiembre Negro show then briefly mention tonight's show.

Overall thoughts: I am not going to rate this one and there's a reason why. WWC usually has 2 shows on WAPA each week in Puerto Rico. There was some kind of pre-emption this week and the Saturday show didn't air. I think WWC knew this was happening and programmed their weekend shows accordingly. Either way, I will let this one slide, because it had no new matches and it was filled with promos we had already seen. What we got was not good and basically a rehash of yesterday's show.

WWE Smackdown 9/18/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/wwe-smackdown-9112026.html

We are in Corpus Christi, TX. Michael Cole and Corey Graves are on commentary.

We see various wrestlers arrive. 

Nick Aldis is in the ring and says sometimes in his job, you have to deal with people who rub you the wrong way. Nick brings Sami Zayn out. Sami gets bored and asks Nick if it's funny to him. Sami says it must kill Nick to have to call him the Undisputed champ. Sami says it feels good coming out of his mouth.

He says "Justice for Sami" was about justice for all. He says he fights even for the people who boo him. He says justice has been served and this is what it looks like. Sami says he also believes in equality. He says he expects the stars asking for title shots to be treated like he was. He says he expects them to get obstacles put in their way like with him. 

Johnny Gargano comes out with Candice LeRae. Sami hugs JG. Sami says it means a lot that he's out there. JG says he wouldn't miss it for the world but he's out there for another reason. He says they had a deal and JG was in line for a title shot if he helped him vs Punk. JG says he's here to collect. Sami says they never made a deal. JG challenges him for tonight. 

Nick says he makes title matches and Sami doesn't. Sami says it's not totally up to him. Nick says JG had a title match at home a few weeks ago. He says CM Punk is next in line but he's not here.

Nick says it has got him to thinking. Sami says Nick threw Punk at him at the last minute last time. Sami grabs Nick and says he's not having it again. Nick tells Sami to get his hands off of him. Nick says he makes the matches and says Sami just made the decision for him when he was on the fence. Nick says Sami is defending the title tonight vs Kevin Owens. Nick says Sami's last reign was 9 days and says let's see if we can get past 7. Sami and Nick then argue in the aisle. Randy Orton's music hits and he comes out. He then stares at Sami and rubs the title.

Thoughts: I figured Orton would win here and was a bit surprised. This worked a lot better than it should have as we had some serious styles clashes here. I was fine with this one and it was interesting to see Orton fight a luchador, since he hasn't done that a lot except for Rey Mysterio.

Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae talk in the back. Sami says they are trying to take his title from him again. He asks if they saw Nick say Gargano isn't on the list of contenders and doesn't deserve it. Sami says he will work on Nick for him and get him the match. Sami says he can't lose the title after 7 days and go through it again. Sami says if he loses the title, he asks if Johnny will get another shot again? Sami asks if he understands what he's trying to say. Johnny says he does. Sami says they will talk. Sami says he's got him.

MFT do a promo. Tama says we did that and his family did that. He says he never needed Nakamura and Nakamura needed him. He says when he refused, he brought in Kyoki. He says whatever happens to Kyoki is on his hands.

Kyoki and Shinsuke Nakamura talk in Japanese. Nakamura says Tama isn't the hunter but the prey.

Tatum plays with a candle while Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss talk. Tatum tries to show them a special candle and Flair blows it out. Flair says she needs to focus on qualifying for MITB.

Thoughts: We didn't get too much of this and it had a DQ finish here. It's probably not a good sign that Bakusai didn't win this clean. I like Kyoki over Hiromu Takahashi, as he doesn't do all the dangerous moves I didn't like. It was a match.

Haku rams his stick into SN's throat. Kyoki jumps off the steps onto Talla and Talla chokeslams him on the apron. Kyoki then takes a chopblock + facekick in the ring.

Bella says she's coming after Green's title and doesn't need qualifying matches. She says she's a legend and she's coming after the title.

Michael Cole does a sitdown interview with Cody Rhodes. He says Cody couldn't pull the trigger. Cody says he doesn't like the phrasing. 

Cole says Cody is QB1 but it seems like the team is gone. We see a picture of Cody holding the title up at Mania and Cole says all those people in it stabbed him in the back. Cody says he should have seen it coming. He says things didn't go differently with him. Cody talks about people saying he might turn heel. Cody says he knew who he was when he won the title and being uncompromised got him a ton of success. He says when the situation comes up again like it did with Orton, he won't make the same decision as he did at SNME.

Thoughts: I'm not sure where things are going with Cody, but they need to figure it out soon. He's too big of a name to not have something better going on.

AB thesz presses Jade and pounds on her. Jade hits a jade end on AB for 2. JJ superkicks Jade and steals the pin.

Thoughts: It was average. It could have been a little cleaner at times here and wasn't super impressive. Jade not winning is not a good sign for her career at all.

Fatal Infuence then celebrate with Jacy after in the aisle.

Giulia is interviewed about MITB Qualifying. Nia Jax and Lash Legend interrupt before she can say much. Giulia says she doesn't like them and beats people she doesn't like. Lash says she will clean house in qualifying and bring home the tag titles and look good while doing it. Giulia says let's see how good she looks when she kicks her teeth out too.

Sami goes for the pin but the ref counts 2 only. There appears to be some kind of issue. Sami helluva kicks KO and pins him.

Thoughts: Odd ending with a count getting messed up near the end. We had a ton of interference here with Punk, LeRae and Gargano all getting involved and that mostly ate up the last half of this. 

Punk beats up on Sami after. Punk hits him with a GTS.

Overall thoughts: Orton's match worked better than I expected and I was fine with that one. MFT/Bakusai was just a normal match and the Women's MITB match was about the same. The main was fine and filled with shenanigans. I think they are doing a good job with Sami's title run so far and they have a lot of ways they can go with it. This one was mostly based around Sami's shenanigans with everyone else kind of playing second fiddle here. The show was fine overall and I'd give this a 6 out of 10.

WWE Main Event 9/17/2026

Thoughts: It was something different. Kyoki got to do more junior heavyweight stuff here and Kit's happy to bump, so they made it work. I still think Kyoki is best fit as a second version of Butch. This was alright.

Miz goes for a skull crushing finale on Kyoki after. Kyoki rolls him and hits a reverse seated franchizer. Nakamura then kinshasa's Miz out.

Otis hits a world's strongest slam on JW. Otis then does the caterpillar splash on JW. Akira top rope sentons JW and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a little short for what these guys usually do. The LWO were a bit heelish here and seemed to have some problems. What we got was fine but far from anyone's best work. Otis did have a decent hot tag segment though.

Joe Hendry vs Ethan Page

Joe has two black eyes here. They mention these two are old rivals.

Thoughts: Wow. Joe needs to leave WWE. Losing on Main Event? Come on now. There's no defending this at all. Someone does not like Joe in WWE. The match was fine.

Overall thoughts: All 3 matches were fine here and of similar quality. I'd say maybe the tag match was the best match on here. But the big news was Joe Hendry losing to Ethan Page. Someone in this company does not like Joe Hendry and it's a real shame. Joe absolutely needs to consider an exit strategy before his career gets derailed any further. The show was okay as a whole and it was a decent watch.
