6/28 notes

I do not know how today is going to work out.

TNA will air at 4PM. It will end at 7PM when The Great American Bash starts. The Great American Bash will go on from 7PM to 10PM.

I think both shows should be doable today...but, then there's AEW Forbidden Door. There is absolutely no way I am seeing all of Forbidden Door tonight because it will probably go past midnight and will likely be a 5 hour show with the pre-show. I'll aim to get Forbidden Door done on Monday.

LM52 and WWE LFG are also on tonight. I don't expect to review those tonight. WWE additionally is putting Raw on Monday at 6PM, so there's a chance LFG and LM52 are not covered until Tuesday.

I apologize in advance if I do not review the show you were looking for on time. It's just physically not possible tonight.

Here are today's reviews:

AAA on Fox 6/27/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/aaa-on-fox-6202026.html

We are in Merida, Mexico. Corey Graves, JBL and Rey Mysterio are on commentary.

We get a Perros del Mal video to open the show. They say heaven called them and hell liberated them. They say they don't follow orders, just instincts. They say God forgives but they don't.

We see various wrestlers arrive and hang out.

Psycho Clown comes out to talk. Clown says he's tired to come out here every week and pretend everything is okay when his life is crumbling piece by piece. He says he lost his brothers and his tag titles. He says Pagano turned his back on him. He says this all ends tonight. He tells Psycho Circus to come out, but Pagano is not included.

Psycho Clown asks Psycho Circus who attacked them from behind. Panic Clown didn't see it. Dave says he doesn't know either. Murder Clown says they all got attacked from behind. Psycho says all of them think it was Pagano who did it. Psycho tells Pagano to come out and show his face. Psycho says he's not coming out so they need to go after him.

The Psycho Circus head to the back. They say they are coming for Pagano and it will be an eye for an eye. They say he's down. They head into his dressing room. Pagano is down, bleeding and surrounded by chairs. Psycho says he doesn't want things to happen this way and asks him for forgiveness. Pagano forgives him. Psycho says whoever did this will pay. On the mirror, it says Psycho is next.

We get a video on the Copa Bardahl match from last year's Triplemania. The Copa Bardahl returns at this years Triplemania.

Galeno vs Mecha Wolf

They lock up and Gal pushes him down. MW hits punches. Gal hits corner lariats. MW hits chops on Gal and Fal flying shoulders him. Gal is sent over the top. MW's tope on him is caught and Gal forearms him down. Omos and Dorian Roldan get on the stage. Gal goes into the post. MW topes him from behind and MW bounces into the rails.

MW basement dropkicks him and chops him. Gal hits some punches. MW back elbows Gal out of the corner and facekicks him. MW dropicks him. Gal flying knees him from behind on the ropes for 2. Gal hits forearms. MW superkicks him. Gal pop up drops him then forearms him down. Gal sentons him.

Gal blue thunders him for 2. MW bottom rope ddt's Gal. Gal running lariats MW. Gal corner cannonballs him. Gal twisting double underhook drops him and pins him.

Thoughts: I was fine with this one. MW's tope where he just bounced off of Gal was wild. Gal had some nice lariats here and they heavily teased Galeno vs Omos here. MW has wrestled many places because you can put him in bouts like this and get a decent match out of it.

We see clips from last year's Verano de Escandalo with Laredo Kid and Octagon facing Berto and Angel in a tag title match. Berto and Angel won. That event returns in July.

Rey Mysterio Jr. is interviewed. He talks about Los Perros del Mal and says he was surprised to see them. He says they wanted their attention and got it. Rey says the deal is sealed for a former WWE World champ to appear next week. Rye also confirms that El Hijo del Vikingo will defend his title in NXT, that NXT and AAA stars will wrestle and that Lady Shadi will return next week to face Flammer. He also says there will be another Abismo Negro vs El Fiscal match.

WWE NXT Women's Title Match - Lola Vice (c) vs. La Hiedra

Hiedra forearms Lola from behind then michinoku drivers her for 2. Lola sunset flips her for 2. Hiedra slaps her then Lola slaps back. They forearm flurry each other and traded mounted forearms on the mat. Lola's head is banged off the commentary table then she is sent into the steps.

Hiedra misses a charge and goes into the steps. Lola hits punches to the gut. Lola chops her. Lola kicks her in the gut and Hiedra rolls her up for 2. Lola spin kicks her in the gut then hits chest kicks. Hiedra spinebusters her for 2.

Hiedra pulls her around by the hair. Hiedra kicks Lola in the leg and hits forearms. Hiedra pulls her hair then dropkicks her in the inner thighs for 2. Hiedra basement dropkicks Lola for 2. Hiedra grounded cobra twists Lola. Lola lariats her and they swinging facebuster each other down.

Lola hits spin kicks to Hiedra's body. She backdrops her. Lola la silla's her off the apron. Lola hits a leg kick combo on her. Lola hits corner hip attacks. Hiedra hits forearms and a stunner for 2.

Lola takes a casadora drop on her chest for 2. Lola rolls her up for 2. Lola urakens her, sending her out of the ring. Las Toxicas come down. Lady Maravilla beats up Lola and Flammer distracts the ref. Hiedra gets a 2 count on Lola.

La Catalina comes down and spears Maravilla hard. Flammer jumps off the steps and Cat forearms her. Lola sleepers Hiedra but Hiedra backrolls for 2. Lola urakens Hiedra and pins her.

Thoughts: Lola was obviously winning here as she has a title defense at The Bash. The match was fine. They showed a bit of aggression and kept things moving. It also didn't go super long.

Las Toxicas stomp on Catalina and Lola after. Lady Shani comes down to help out. Shani knocks the heels down and backcrackers Flam. She meteora's Hiedra from behind on the ropes.

Overall thoughts: We got another chapter in the Psycho Clown and Pagano story. Wolf/Galeno wasn't a bad match and Wolf had a wild tope where he bounced off Galeno into a rail. Lola/Hiedra was fine. It was more of a filler episode here and a lot of the stars were missing. The show was fine and I'd give it a 6 out of 10, but it was nothing must see.

MLW Fusion 6/27/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/mlw-fusion-6202026-episode-200.html

We are in Atlanta, GA. Joe Dombrowski and Tom Lawler are on commentary.

PK kicks her off the apron and cannonballs her off the apron. Zam blocks a buzzsaw kick and lariats her down. Zam sitout double arm chokeslam bombs her and pins her.

Thoughts: I was surprised it didn't go longer. They definitely tried to put Zam over here and it did work. They had tons of camera cuts during this as this is a smaller venue and they didn't want you to see how small it is.

Rich Bocchini tries to interview Zamaya after. He says she should be feeling confident right now. Zam gets in his face and says nothing before leaving.

They talk about the CMLL and MLW relationship and say Fantastica Mania USA will be on Fusion soon.

Aries says he will take his title around the world and make it the World Openweight Title. He says he is announcing an open challenge against anyone. Diego Hill comes in. He says he will challenge him to shut him up. Hill says let's do it right here and right now. Aries asks if he forgot what he did to Blue Panther. He says Mistico has been ducking him. He says Hill has talent and potential, but he's 2-3 years away from being ready to face him. He tells him to go think about his life decisions before he regrets it. Hill says there could be 2 options here - he says he could say he is right or he could use knocking him out right now. Hill then spin kicks him in the face.

They talk about LaBron Kozone being signed to MLW. We see him and Satoshi Kojima talking. Kojima says Stan Hansen taught him the lariat and he will teach LaBron it. Kojima shows him a tree and practices lariats on it. LaBron then hits lariats on it. We get some special effects and Kojima cheers him on as he lariats the tree.

Paul Hauser vs Bryce Cannon

Paul has dropped the "Walter" part of his name.

Paul gives him the up yours sign and BC taunts him. Paul side headlocks him then shoulders him over. BC jumps up and is atomic dropped. Paul superkicks him in the head then sentons him for 2. Paul hits chops in the corner.

BC step up enzugiri's him. Paul throws him down backwards by the hair. Paul fisherman suplexes him. Paul spinebusters him. Paul texas cloverleafs him and submits him.

Thoughts: It was a short squash and not much of note here. I'm not sure how much I buy Paul as a legit threat to anyone due to his look.

They talk about the upcoming MLW Southern Crown Title. They say there will be a match for the title next week.

We get a video on Don Gato and his tequila.

They do a video and say Bishop Dyer is in a contract dispute with MLW. Rich Bocchini says Dyer is playing hardball and is asking for new cars and for MLW to invest in his coffee business. Rich says this could end the title reign of him and Dijak. Rich says Court Bauer will make a decision on this next week.

They say there will be an MLW Fusion episode on July 4th. It has Karl Anderson vs Dijak, Teddy Long and they say a Southern Crown champ will be crowned next week.

AA rakes his face with his feet. AA 2nd rope diving euros him in the back of the neck for 1. AA hits him in the gut then hits punches. They trade forearms. AA knees him in the gut and chops him. Hill spinning back elbows him then superkicks him over. Hill running kicks him in the corner and low dropkicks him in the corner.

Hill top rope diving elbow drops AA for 2. AA backdrops him. AA corner dropkicks him. Hill os cutters him for 2. Hill top rope 450's him for 2. Hill is pushed into the ref. AA hits Hill with the title belt from behind. AA brainbusters him on the title and pulls him up on the pin attempt. AA does his last chancery but lets go of Hill. Hill is out and AA brainbusters him. AA pins him by kneeling on him.

Thoughts: It was one of Hill's best bouts. He hit all of his stuff clean and came off looking good. It was a fun bout and AA put over that he was teaching him a lesson here. Aries really is a step above most wrestlers right now and it's a shame only MLW is using him.

AA stands on Hill after. He says let this be a lesson learned the hard way. AA says he's still the man. He says he can't get Mistico's attention and asks if he has it now.

CONTRA Unit hijacks the feed. They said Mads Krule Kruegger was given mission and purpose and he rejected it. They said he defied Contra and says Mads says he was done taking cash as a mercenary.

Alexander Hammerstone comes out before the main event and poses. He comes to the commentary table. He says he doesn't know why they waste air time promoting guys who are below him.

Lee rolls up Matt for 2. Lee kicks him out of the corner. Matt knees him in the face. Lee standing spanish flies him as Matt runs at him. Lee lariats him over the top and PK's him from the apron. Matt pop up powerbombs Lee then pumping knees him for 2.

Lee high kicks him. Matt flips out of a german and pumping knees him. Matt goes up top and Lee top rope germans him down. Matt puts the ref in Lee's way. Matt then rolls up Lee with the trunks and pins him.

Thoughts: It was an okay bout. It was competitive and mostly action focused without a great story to it. Matt won as expected here.

Matt argues with Hammerstone outside after. Hammer shoves him and Matt knocks him out with a uraken.

Overall thoughts: Zamaya beat Priscilla Kelly quick. Hauser squashed Cannon. Aries/Hill was easily the match of the night. Hill had one of his best showings and they got the story over of Hill being a bit out of his league and Aries clowning him. Lee/Riddle was an okay main but nothing must see. We also had a fun segment with Kojima and Kazone lariating trees. There was no Contra Mercs unite segment as advertised on the graphic. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as it was okay and they furthered some storylines here.

We get a video on Wilfredo Rivera. Wil says he's entering as a challenger but wanted to enter as a champion. He says life had other plans. He talks abut his opponents in the 4-way. He says not even 6 fighters will stop him from being TV champ again.

We get a video on La Amenaza Bryan/Chicano vs Eddie and Carlito Colon. They talk about the Colon's in WWC and how Eddie fired Chicano from WWC. They talk about Chicano's wife having cancer. Chicano says he's at a crossroads. Chicano says when he needed WWC the most, Eddie turned on him. Chicano says he's back. He says it's time to pick up the trash with the Colon's and put the where they belong.

We then see Jovica saying the same things he said earlier. Jovica and some of the wrestlers say let's celebrate the anniversary.

Axel and Abel close the show. They says they will be at the Anniversary show and they will see us there.

Overall thoughts: There were no new matches here or even old ones. It was just promos and people talking about the Anniversary show. I'm a little more forgiving of this than other nights because the big show is tonight, but one match really wouldn't have been that much to ask for. But this is WWC and wrestling matches are often the rarest commodity you can find on this show. It did a nice job of hyping up the big show and making it seem special, but that's about it. There is no reason to watch this and I won't be rating this one as there was nothing to rate. We also got no news about WWC Plus here.

AEW Collision 6/27/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/aew-collision-6202026.html

Thoughts: It got a lot of time and was also a slower paced match. I was expecting a bit more flying and craziness. Kevin did win as expect. It was acceptable but not quite the junior dream match it could have been.

Thekla comes out with Julia Hart and Skye Blue. Thek says it makes her nice to see the companies play nice with each other. She says if she wants to fly to Japan and attack the Stardom president, she does. She says if she wants to destroy the forbidden door, she will light it on fire.

Thoughts: Billie lost as expected. It got a lot of time to play out. I just thought it was acceptable only but it was one of Pers' better performances in AEW. This was very random.

Hikaru Shida comes out and hits Pers with a kendo stick. Shida half-straightjacket's Pers then pulls her leg towards her head. Kris Statlander, Queen Aminata and Harley Cameron come out to stop it. Kris Statlander, Queen Aminata, Persephone and Harley Cameron then all stare down.

Jake sitout powerbombs AP. Jake misses a corner charge. AP germans him. AP ddt's him for 2. AP comes off the top and Jake forearms him. AP cradles him for 2. Jake black hole slams him and wins.

Thoughts: I wasn't that interested in this. I like both guys, but the outcome wasn't in doubt and it took a long time to get there. Both guys could have been more effective here. Jake should have thrown him around more and AP should have been stiffer and shown more spirit.

Maya World does a video. She says she's been waiting her whole career to face Mercedes Mone. Mone says she knows she was on her poster. She says she's her boss. She says this is Maya's dream match but not her cinderella story. She says she spent her life making history while Maya spent her time trying to make it here. Mone says dreams don't win titles but she does.

Willow Nightingale does a video. she says the comeback killer needs to make a comeback of her own. She says being the best in subjective. She says she got comfortable but knows being the best is in her.

All 4 fight. Hyan stomps Mone then throws Ath onto Maya's double knees. Hyan corner splashes both opponents then Maya running back elbows them. Maya is headscissored into a cannonball on both opponents. Maya and Hyan hit stereo topes outside.

Thoughts: Ath and Mone's team won as expected. Maya's team got some offense in before going down. They tried and it was acceptable but this didn't do a lot to sell me on Maya winning tomorrow.

Ath beats up Hyana after like she always does. Mone puts her in a crossface and Ath grabs a half-crab. Maya sends the heels out and asai moonsaults them.

Overall thoughts: I didn't like this show at all. It was basically nothing but random matches with predictable outcomes. This was the definition of filler and it was boring to sit through. There was also almost no starpower on this one. Dez/Knight was the match of the night. I'd give this a 4 out of 10 just for the complete lack of effort or care put into this show. This was below average.

Thoughts: Oba won quick here. It wasn't anything particularly special. Jey got a lot of offense in, didn't get too far with it and Oba made his comeback and won. Jey getting to this point helped him out some after he got re-demoted to being Roman's lackey this year. I don't mind Oba looking strong but they don't have enough names for him to do this with forever.

Nick Aldis gives Oba the crown after. Byron interviews Oba in the ring. Oba says it feels so good to go from The Ruler to The King. He says Jey thought he was fighting just one man. Oba says you can't beat destiny and you can't beat him.

Thoughts: They tried to push that Iyo hurt her leg here but it was at the end and it wasn't focused on. Liv had a better performance than usual but didn't add a ton to this one. The crowd was not super into this and that didn't help it. I thought it was acceptable.

Iyo is given the crown after by Nick Aldis. Byron interviews Iyo. Iyo says, "I am the queen". Iyo says she will see Liv at Summerslam.

Thoughts: It checked all the boxes here and it was an okay match. I don't think it got close to great though. I think they needed a bit more intensity, some blood would have helped it and they could have just sped things up at times as it was a slower paced match. I didn't think it had any real major flaws. I was a bit surprised to see Bron lose and I'm curious where things go with either guy from here.

Thoughts: The crowd sucked here for this and the match wasn't anything too special. Trick did a little more than usual. There wasn't any great logic to this and Trick winning was never really in doubt. It was average.

Thoughts: I was glad Tiff won. Tiff mostly did all the work here and Jade mostly caught her and threw her around. I found the various outfits to be ridiculous here. Why would Fab, Green and Charlotte wear bodysuits when they even wrestling on this show? Wouldn't they just wear normal long sleeve clothing instead? The match wasn't anything too special. After they do Jade/Charlotte, I wonder what is left for Jade on SD.

Sami slips out of a cross rhodes and pins Cody! Sami Zayn is the new Undisputed champ!

Thoughts: Sami's story for the last few years has been that he's the guy who couldn't win the big one. He finally won it here. Why? I'm not sure other than WWE being low on starpower. He's definitely not at his peak popularity wise and the build to him winning wasn't that strong. But it is done and there's no going back. I really would have done this in Canada where the response would have been 10x higher. It was your usual 3-way. Every time something would get going, the next guy would come in and things would reset. I thought there was a lot of story here with Sami and Cody but they only got into it a little. The match was alright enough but not too memorable aside from the result. The back body drop through the commentary table that Sami took was a pretty big bump. I assume we get Cody/Sami at Summerslam off of this. Gunther again has lost pretty convincingly and I don't really see an obvious direction for him here.

Sami says he's been challenging for 10 years and says he was told he would never do it. He says here it is.

Overall thoughts: The crowd either was not mic'd up well or they were just quiet for most of the night. That hurt all the matches. Additionally, Michael Cole had audio issues all night long which hurt things some. On paper, there was a lot at stake here but it didn't really feel like a huge PLE. Oba/Jey was a bit one-sided and Oba won. Iyo/Liv was acceptable and one of Liv's better matches...mostly due to Iyo. Seth/Bron checked all the boxes and was fine but never got close to being great. Trick/Saints was average. Tiff really worked hard against Jade but the match was nothing special. The main event was alright but really was only notable for Sami winning and ending his long run as the guy who couldn't win the big one. One thing I felt was noticeable is that a lot of people are kind of in the hole booking wise after this like Gunther and Bron and they are going to have to do some heavy work to pull them out. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 overall as it was okay and it was definitely better than some of their other Saudi PLE efforts. I really only see people remembering Sami winning the title here and not a lot else. I wouldn't recommend this one.

NWA Powerrr 6/27/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/nwa-powerrr-6202026.html

Joe Galli and Tim Storm are on commentary.

Kyle Davis interviews The Cazana's in the ring. Joe says he has good news and bad news. He says the good news is they are tag champs. He says the bad news is they have to defend against mystery opponents. KC and AJ aren't happy. Joe says they are the tag champs and it doesn't matter who they have to fight. Joe says he predicted his boys would be the champs and that's the way it is. Joe says they are the champs because they are the greatest team in the NWA and they do it by the book.

We go to the NWA training seminar again. Kenzie Paige talks about being champ. She then introduces Tiffany Nieves. Tiff says she's the current champ and Paige is the former champ, so focus on her. She complains about having to fight in a 3-way soon with a stipulation attached. She moves her and Natalia Markova comes in. Grett grabs Markova by the throat. We then cut away.

Rich enzugiri's him from the apron. Pope slides out. The Light double boot and double pendulum slam Rich. Pope elbow drops Rich and pins him.

Thoughts: It was an average match. Mims pretended he didn't know who The Light was the whole bout. This got a decent bit of time and Rich did fine, just he's not super exciting.

The Pope talks to The Light in the back. He says he feels rejuvinated and feels mighty. He asks Mims if he saw that. Mims congratulates him and says The Light did more of the work in the bout. Pope says he doesn't need help. He says there's a big difference between needing help and preference. Pope says he needs Mims but Mims needs him more. Pope then leaves and Mims laughs.

Daisy Kill comes in after and grabs his jacket from Eric. Kill then raises Big's arm and gets a stomp in on Eric.

Kyle Davis asks what the deal is. Kill says Big Cuzzo will get the job done. Kill says Eric is a prop, a joke and a little freak.

We see Mike Mondo working out and we see Wrecking Ball Legursky come up to him and Aron Stevens. Ball tells him why he wants to get in the FoC. Aron says Ball broke one of his prized brushes. Aron says not to letting him join the FoC. He says something you don't get what you want but you might find what you need.

Kyle Davis talks to Trevor Murdoch in the ring. Trev thanks everyone. He says a fat kid from Missouri got to have a 27 year career in the business he loves. He says there's nothing better than this. He says he was trained by Harley Race and got to live with Misawa and Kobashi. He says he go to hear his name called in MSG.

Mike Knox comes out with a gift. They hug. Trevor has Mike open it up. It's a King's cape and crown. Trevor says. He says what would Harley Race? He'd say look at how stupid you are to think he'd retire when he's at the top. He says it only took one little statement. Trevor says a king never retires. He says from this point forward, everyone should call him King Trevor Murdoch I.

Thoughts: There's a twist. It was kind of funny. I expected Knox to turn on Trevor here.

Mike top rope diving headbutts Idol for 2. Aron Stevens gets on the apron. Kerry Morton comes in and chairs Idol. Mike fireman's carry gutbusters Idol and pins him.

Thoughts: The match was going okay and then the shenanigans started. I have no idea why Kerry was out there. I also don't know why the ref didn't call for a DQ when he knew Kerry was in the ring with a chair.

Silas then spots Kerry and chases him to the back.

NWA World Tag Titles - The Country Gentlemen (AJ and KC Cazana) (c) vs Thom Latimer and El Dragon Nihan

The Cazana's have mystery opponents here.

Nihan pulls down KC off the lock up. AJ gets in and is shoved down off the lock up. The Cazana's pound on Nihan together. Nihan no sells a double gut shot and chops both down together. Thom side headlocks KC. Thom hiptosses him. AJ comes in and Thom throws him out. Joe Cazana gets on the apron.

KC slides out, Thom goes out after him and AJ lariats him on the floor. KC stomps Thom in the ring then double axe handles him. Thom's head is banged off the buckles. AJ punches Thom in the corner. Joe chokes Thom over the 2nd rope. KC punches Thom.

Thoughts: It was a random one. It got off to a decent start and they really did put over Nihan as a force here. I thought they had a shot at winning this one. It was acceptable.

Thom and Nihan talk after. Thom hugs him and Nihan lariats him down. Brandon McCord comes out and tells Nihan to attack Thom more. Nihan takes Thom down and hits mounted shots. Refs try to break it up as Nihan chokes Thom.

Overall thoughts: It was the usual NWA Powerrr episode. Most of the bouts were random and twrestling was nothing particularly special. It was watchable but that's really about it. Trevor Murdoch's un-retirement was amusing and Nihan turned on Thom at the end of the show. The best match of the night was maybe the main, but it was nothing must see. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 and thought it was average overall.
