Thoughts: It was a longer one. They didn't have a lot of botches and it went alright enough. It wasn't great or overly exciting though. We didn't even get a proper dive train here or any big multi-girl spots. It was 2 girls going at it, then one or two of them swapping out for the next segment then lather, rinse repeat for an hour. Skadi winning was a bit of a surprise, but there's not a lot of long term booking in CMLL. It was neat to see her and Bayne go at it.

Skadi gets the cup for winning after and all the girls pose together for photos.

The announcers then close the show.

Overall thoughts: The opener wasn't that good. Star/Yutani was acceptable but could have been better. Rey Pegasus' match was a bit of a free-for-all but it was alright. I didn't like the semi-main. The main event went about an hour. It was an okay enough without major issues, but it wasn't particularly great or special. I'd give it a 5 out of 10. It was acceptable overall.

The Judgment Day (Dominik Mysterio & JD McDonagh) vs. Los Americanos (Bravo Americano & Rayo Americano) 

El Grande Americano is with Rayo and Bravo.

Rayo and JD lock up. JD wristlocks him. Rayo kips up, headflips and is then rolled by the arm. Bravo and Dom go at it. Dom hits punches. Bravo atomic drops him and hits punches. Bravo makes Dom dance with him. Dom is atomic dropped then Rayo dropkicks him.

Thoughts: Grande was near useless as a second heel as he  was unable to stop the heels from doing most things. It was fast paced and it was fine for what it was. Judgment Day losing is not good at all for their position.

We get some Smackdown recaps. 

Jade Cargill's group does a promo. Michin grabs about having the tag titles. Fab says they knew they would take care of business as they deserved it. Fab says to praise the new tag champs.

We get an interview with Iyo Sky, Tiffany Stratton and Chelsea Green. Iyo says when she beat Raquel, Judgment Day tried to put her down. She says she showed them she never stays down.

Joe Hendry comes out to do a live performance. Joe says he has written some classic songs but there's one people enjoy more than others. He sings, "Can We Fire Logan Paul?".

Joe Hendry vs Bronson Reed

Joe suicide dives Reed as he comes out and pushed him into the post. The bell then rings to start this. Reed bodyblocks Joe and sentons him. Reed death valley drivers him. Reed top rope splashes Joe and pins him.

Thoughts: Joe's booking has been awful and this is another case of it. There's just no excuse for doing this. Vince may be gone, but his habit of squashing people from other companies continues. Joe did earn his whooping here as he came out and trolled Logan Paul for no reason.

Reed hits another top rope splash on Joe after. 

Overall thoughts: The opener was acceptable. Priest/Ivar was fun and was easily the match of the night. The Judgment Day's tag was fine but I don't get why they lost. Bronson Reed squashed Joe Hendry for no reason in the main. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 overall as the wrestling was alright enough for a throwaway show like this and it was an okay episode.

WWE Evolve 10/28/2026

WWE Evolve 10/28/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/wwe-evolve-10212026.html

We are in Orlando, Florida. Blake Howard and Robert Stone are on commentary.

Elijah Holyfield says someone is getting knocked out and it could be Cole or Mathers. He says it's his first triple threat. He says only one person is getting his hand raised and it's him.

MJ back body drops him. HR lariats him and dropkicks him. HR spears him. HR chokeslam lifts him into a knee to the face. HR pins him.

Thoughts: It was acceptable. Milosh already seems to get the basics of being a face and seems like someone the crowd could get behind. I think there's a goofy side to him. HR did his usual smash mouth offense and won as expected.

HR kicks and boots him after. HR sends MJ into the steps. HR tries to drop the steps on him but guards get him to not do it. HR says he's here to stay and fight and says to put the belt around his waist. 

Marcus Mathers does a promo. He says they've got attitude in Philly and wear their heart on their sleeves. He says he hasn't been doing so well in Evolve but it's time to turn it around. He says he will rep Philly tonight and show his opponents what Philly's Finest truly means.

Jasper Troy comes out before his match. He says he's here to dominate and says the brand has been begging for a monster to destroy the brand. He says it's not about the people, the spotlight deserves him. He says this locker room is full of 180 pounders who think they can face him. He says it's disrespectful. He says this place is his new stomping grounds and if anyone has a problem, come out and fight him.

Jasper Troy vs. Jax Presley

I think Jax has new white cowboy leggings and he's definitely in better shape than before. Troy is already fired from WWE.

Jax hits punches and back elbows him. Jax hits euros in the corner and slams him. Jax running lariats him and pins him.

Thoughts: Wow. Without knowing Troy has been fired, this would be a real shocking result. Jax was in face mode here. He's kind of bland in that role and you can see why they put him in a tag team. Jax's lariat looked nice atleast. The match was average to acceptable as it wasn't super great.

The Mog Squad do a video. They are at the Performance Center which has a "Pray 4 Max" sign on it. Max Abrams' face is all wrapped up. They do a video to raise awareness for Max's condition. Santi says they thought it was impossible that he could looksmax more. Ball says Max was taking one small step for Max and one giant leap for The Mog Squad. We see clips of Max getting worked on and we see them trying to help him do things. Santi says the sacrifice will be worth it in the end. Max tries to talk but he has tape all over his face. Santi translates for him. Max says the reign of the mogger has just begun.

Thoughts: This was a fun little segment and something different.

Sloane Jacobs is hosting a Nationwide Admiration Ceremony for Nikkita Lyons in the ring. She says Lyons beat Luck, Thea, Skylar and Choo. She hypes up Lyons and brings her out. 

Lyons says she wants to thank the person who has been with her everyday of this journey - her spirit. Lyons says if you don't admire yourself, who else will? Lyons has the crowd do a cleansing breath. She says we will open our 3rd eye and admire her future.

Anya Rune interrupts in full sailor girl outfit. Rune says Lyons doesn't know her well but she's Anya Rune. She says Lyons thinks she has main character energy but Rune says she's the main character. Rune says she will make her notice her and she says she's not the only one on a winning streak. Rune says she should be the next challenger then Lyons and Sloane laugh.

Sloane says this is an admiration ceremony and not a wish factory. Sloane says Lyons could beat Choo, Skylar and Thea at the same time right now. Timothy Thatcher comes out. Tim says Rune has guts but she needs another win before challenging Lyons. Tim says Rune should face Sloane since she doesn't think she's ready. Tim says Rune will get a title shot if she wins.

Lyons protests and says not to make promises Tim can't keep. Lyons says let's talk about who her actual next challenger will be. Tim says Rune will be her next challenger if she wins. Tim brings up Lyons saying she could beat Choo, Skylar and Thea at the same time. Tim then makes that match and Lyons is upset. Rune then somehow transforms with graphics. Rune flying forearms Sloane.

Shido Ash says all he thinks about is becoming a star and chasing gold. He says Viktor Zanov is in Austria to train. He says he will run solo as he has done it all his life. He says his mission to bun Evolve to the ground will continue as Chazz Hall is his next victim.

Laynie Luck and Aaron Rourke talk in the back. AR says the nonsense with Kale Dixon has gone on for weeks and he needs someone to take care of Alix Brooks. Luck agrees and says she will ask for a match with Alix next week.

It's GAL is in the VIP Lounge.

Braxton Cole talks in the back before his match. He says he will manipulate his opponents to the fullest advantage. He says Elijah has shown he's all muscle and no brains. He says Mathers has heart but not the physical capabilities he has. He says he has the size, brains, athleticism and he has it all.

Elijah Holyfield vs Braxton Cole vs Marcus Mathers

Mathers and Cole are already gone from WWE.

Cole drops MM with a punch. Eli rams Cole in the corner and hits corner spears. Eli is thrown out. Mathers knees Cole out of the corner and 2nd rope dropkicks him. Eli backrolls MM for 2. MM's leapfrog is caught. Cole hits both opponents.

Eli is thrown out. MM hits chops on Cole and Cole chops him down. Eli pulls Cole out and bangs his head off the apron. MM tope con hilos both opponents.

We go to break and return. MM flying corner lariats Cole and dropkicks him for 1. MM's head is banged off the buckles. MM kicks the middle rope into Eli's crotch. Cole boots Eli in the corner and euros him down for 2. Cole does a weird neckbreaker on Eli.

Thoughts: It was alright enough but rather forgettable. Eli won here as he's getting pushed and not getting fired. It was a bit of a styles clash but they made it work.

Thea Hail says it doesn't matter if it's NXT or Evolve. She says she's standing alone and is hellbent on taking down gold. She says it's all hail the new Evolve Women's champ. Skylar Raye says title shots can be rare. She says she will get a 2nd chance to right her wrongs vs Lyons. Choo says she survived a gauntlet match and says she will put Lyons to sleep. She says she will make history as the first 2x Evolve Women's champ.

Overall thoughts: The opener was acceptable. Troy/Jax was average with Troy doing mostly the same stuff he does every match. We had a fun Mog Squad segment and had a few non-wrestling segments. The main was fine. As has been the case for a while, there were a lot of people on this one who are now fired which makes for some weird moments. The show was fine as a whole and I'd give it a 6 out of 10 overall.

Thoughts: It went a little longer than I expected. Home won but Tom got to kick out of a decent bit of stuff. I would have liked to have seen more offense from Tom. This was average.

Overall thoughts: There was only one new match as usual. It was nothing must see and you can get through the show in only a few minutes. I wouldn't recommend this one, but at least it wasn't a big time investment.

The Cut and The Death Riders fight after. Claudio Castagnoli joins in. The Cut run and Mox gets on the mic. Mox asks where they think they are going. Mox challenges them to Anarchy in the Arena at Full Gear. Schiavone then stupidly brings up that they are skipping Blood and Guts to do that match.

Thoughts: I didn't like it at all. It was the usual Kyle match where he does a bunch of stuff and little gets sold and little means anything.

Doyle and Mark Davis celebrate with Kyle after and put him on their shoulders. Kyle talks on the mic and says he just decimated someone who was supposed to be a pillar in the company. He says he beat a legend in Cope last week and beat Will Ospreay. He says Davis and Doyle will become tag champs. He says he beat Will at Full Gear before and will do it again. He dares Will to put the AEW Title on the line as he says he's the uncrowned AEW champ. He says no one can touch him, he's the best and he will prove it at Full Gear.

Dean Malenko narrates a Blood and Guts video.

The New Level are interviewed in the ring by Renee. Creed says Swerve was talking crazy about a Texas Death Match.

Prince Nana comes out and dances. He then points to a video of Swerve on the tron. Swerve has Bandido's mask somewhere and Bandido is bloody. Swerve says to give him the match he asked for as he won't ask again. He then puts the mask back on Band.

Page tells Brody not to give Swerve what he wants. Page says they need to find Bandido and they leave to go find him.

The Don Callis Family do a promo in the back. Don says Will has to be shaking in his boots. He says Davis and Doyle will take the AEW Tag Titles and break The Young Bucks. Okada mocks Cope. Don says Steven Borden put his trust into a sea urchin and Darby is making him do things he wouldn't be doing. He says Josh Alexander will end Darby tonight. Josh says he will take the TNT Title from Darby. Don says they have something the other team doesn't have and Okada says "family". Okada then gives a cheesy smile.

The two teams shake after. Stoke throws powder in The Guns' faces. Alex takes a 2nd rope double stomp to the knee. 

Britt Baker, Persephone and Queen Aminata are interviewed by Lexi. Britt insults Queen. Queen says Pers can keep underestimating her but she knows who she is. She says she was taken out of Blood and Guts last year. She says she will knock Pers' head off and become TBS champ.

Thoughts: It was a quick and random squash with MS winning as expected.

MS gets on the mic after. She tells Mercedes Mone not be a p*ssy. Mone comes out. Mone says Ms doesn't know who she is. Mone says she has more balls than The Death Riders have combined. She slaps her and says if she wants a shot, let's see if she can handle this. MS offers her another chance to slap her. Mone slaps her multiple times.

Thoughts: I didn't like it. They did a bunch of dangerous stuff here. They did too much and didn't sell all that much at all here. Both guys looked like they hurt each other at times here as well. Darby won as expected.

Darby limps up the ramp after and holds his knee and elbow.

Steven Borden and Darby Allin do a promo. He asks why his first match will be at Blood and Guts. He says Don doesn't know him well, but he wanted this.

Britt Baker hits Queen with the TBS Title. Pers top rope moonsaults Queen for 2. Queen headbutts Pers down and running knees her. Queen then pins her.

Thoughts: I thought there was a good chance of Queen winning here. It was in the main and she's been featured lately for no real reason. Pers didn't really impress or anything with her reign. The title should help Queen out some and we'll see what's next for Pers. This was fine and Queen hit a lot of stiff strikes as usual.

Queen gets fireworks after and multiple girls come out to celebrate with her. Queen then gets confetti. 

Overall thoughts: This had a 25 minute overrun which was a bit long. I liked the opener. I didn't like Kyle/Jack. FTR/The Guns was fine enough and maybe the match I liked best here. Darby/Josh got out of hand as expected and wasn't my thing and the main was fine enough. The show had a lot of build to Blood and Guts, though still not quite enough. The show was fine overall, but lots of names were missing on this one. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.

LM52 Lucha Libre Mexicana on Discovery Espanol 10/25/2026

LM52 Lucha Libre Mexicana on Discovery Espanol 10/25/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/lm52-lucha-libre-mexicana-on-discovery_01211856593.html

Luis Zamudio and Daniel Lopez are on commentary.

We see Puerquiza Extrema walk in the back. They argue with Hijo del Alebrije and someone he is with. Hijo then gets shoved down and booted.

Sinapsis talks to Baby Metal in a ring. Diosa Quetzal then walks in an joins the conversation. She seems to maybe come to some kind of agreement with them.

We see Pig Destroyer (green hair) work out on a treadmill. Pig Destructor (gray mohawk) comes up to him. They talk.

We cut back to Sinapsis, Baby Metal and Diosa Quetzal talking.

Dorada spears Emp. Dorada top rope moonsaults Emp and pins her. Dorada wins the match.

Thoughts: It wasn't that good. It had some awkward moments with Alisha just strolling in to break up a count and they didn't really pace it well for the amount of time they got. Dorada won, but will we see her again anytime soon? I don't know.

Nahara Cardenas interviews Guerrera Dorada after.

La Pandemia gets out of their car in the parking lot. Los de la H then go up to them. La Pandemia shove them and get shoved back.

La Pandemia (Gran Pendemonium, Pandemonium Jr and Hijo de Pandemonium) vs Los de la H (Bravo 2000, Gallero and  Fortrero)

It was a bit hard to tell who was who here. It didn't get enough time and they somehow missed the finish as they cut away. What we got here wasn't that good and they even half-missed the spot where La Pandemia struts and the announcer sings "Somos La Pandemia". Los de la H didn't impress here in their debut and this wasn't that good.

Los Hell Brothers of Chessman and maybe Hell run into Puerquiza Extrema at the gym. Chess seems to have a plan. 

Mafioso, Sexy Andre and Estrellato vs Zumbido and Los Hell Brothers (Charly Manson and Hell)

Manson flying headscissors Estrell out. Manson flying headscissors Andre out then he topes him. Zumbido and Estrell trade chops. Zumbido dropkicks Estrell out and springboard trioangle plancha's him outside. Hell boots Maf then Maf low blows him. Maf pins Hell.

Thoughts: It was acceptable but not much more. They just didn't get the time or didn't use the time they had well enough here. Zumbido has a good showing and doesn't look like he has slowed down much at all. Manson was fine here also.

Mafioso's team is interviewed after.

Hell is then interviewed.

They actually then show us 2 graphic with matches for next week, which is something they haven't done here before. That's smart.

Overall thoughts: They had graphics for the wrestlers who were in talking segments here. That made this a lot easier to follow. A lot of those wrestlers weren't wrestling here though and aren't on next week's show either. They also did some graphics updates that looked nice...and they actually promoted next week's show a bit which they don't normally do. So they did well with that stuff. Wrestling, wise, it wasn't anything special. The women's match wasn't good. La Pandemia won a shorter match that wasn't anything too special. The main was fine with Zumbido having a good showing. I'd give it a 4 out of 10 as it wasn't that good, but the new production upgrades make this a lot easier to follow.  

MLW Fusion 10/22/2026

MLW Fusion 10/22/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/mlw-fusion-10152026.html

Joe Dombrowski and Tom Lawlor are on commentary.

Thoughts: I liked Andrew as a wrestler, but I didn't like him doing comedy. He's not doing comedy in MLW and therefore, I'm enjoying him more. He lost as expected here. They didn't do anything wrong, just with the limited time and interference, this was only going to be so good. It was average.

Joe Coffey gets on the mic after with GBOT behind him. Joe says Doc Gallows did this to his son. He says this match is dedicated to CJ Gallows. Joe says he knows Trevor Lee's Southern Crown Title means a lot to him since he's from the south, but they don't care as they have their sights on it. Joe says it will always be GBOT.

We are told CJ Gallows suffered a concussion, has a wired jaw and hurt one of his lungs. 

We see Austin Aries' interview with Rich Bocchini from last week.

Josh Bishop vs Rich Moya

Dijak is on commentary for this.

JB chops him in the corner. JB sends him hard into the buckles and RM goes down. JB fallaway slams him. JB powerbombs him then hits a standing splash mountain/razor's edge. JB pins him.

Thoughts: It was all squash as expected. I'm sure this was just filler to get JB a win and get him on the show without doing a big match.

Josh gets on the mic after. He says he's coming for Kross.

Killer Kross arrives with Scarlett and is looking for Josh Bishop. He says if he wants to fight, here he is.

We get a video on Saya Kamitani.

The girls stare down. Lady cartwheels over her. Lady shoulders her over but Saya gets up and taunts her. Saya bridghes out of a lariat, backrolls her and basement dropkicks her. Saya throws her down backwards.

Thoughts: It was fine enough. They didn't have a big classic match or anything, but they hit their moves, they generally worked okay together and it went well enough. Saya wins and Lady is now stuck doing jobs just like she was in AEW.

Shotzi comes out after. Shotzi says Stardom has officially invaded MLW. She says she's been watching Saya and admiring her work. She says her and Saya is a dream match in the making. Rina, who is with Saya, gets in the ring. Lady Frost, Scarlett and Zamaya then get in and we get a 3v3 fight. Saya, Lady and Rina get sent out.

Rich Bocchini does some Saturday Night Superfight updates. He says it is sold out. Rich talks about Kross vs Bishop there. Rich says Tessa Blanchard is coming to the show. 

They announce that Yota Tsuji will be at Superfight. He asks who he should fight and suggests an open challenge. He says he won't put the title on the line, but if he loses, maybe he will after.

Tessa Blanchard does a video. She says there's a reason her name carries the weight it does. She says she traveled the world and won titles. She says she has proven she belongs at the top. She says she's making history in Mexico but isn't anywhere near finished. She says she's not coming to introduce herself but to remind everyone who she is. 

We get a Don Gato video.

Lee backslides him. AA does a bridging collar lock on him. AA grabs a title belt then hands Lee another title belt. The ref takes it from Lee and AA spinning forearms him from behind. AA corner dropkicks him and brainbusters him. AA pins Lee.

Thoughts: I didn't like it that much. They hit their moves clean of course, but that top rope german meant absolutely nothing and the floor suplex didn't mean that much all either. Then we had to have a lame ending here for the finish.

Josh Bishop and Killer Kross fight in the parking lot. Scarlett follows along. They trade shots. Josh rips KK's shirt off and KK sends Josh into a temporary fence. They then fight on the sidewalk and actually fight down the street outside. Dijak then yells as they fight.

Thoughts: It was a neat little segment. We don't usually see people go into the street to fight.

Overall thoughts: The opener was average. Bishop won a quick squash. Frost/Saya was alright. I didn't like the main but they did put out a good effort. We also had an actual fight in the street between Bishop and Kross to end this. Saya/Frost was my MOTN, but most people would pick the main instead. I'd give it a higher 5 out of 10 as it was alright overall and it was a little bit of a better effort than usual.
