CMLL 2/20/2026 Viernes Espectacular

CMLL 2/20/2026 Viernes Espectacular

Note - CMLL made a major change this week and now captain's rules for trios matches are gone. All falls in trios matches will now end after someone is pinned or submitted. I do like to keep tradition alive but the captain's falls format was very confusing for everyone and I ultimately think this is a good change.

Almost all of CMLL's top stars are in NJPW for Fantasticamania, so this card will look a bit different than usual.

Thoughts: It was an okay opener full of flying. Psy impressed the least here. Con impressed the most here and did a lot of nice flying.They only had about 6-7 minutes to work with here.

Cam and Karma try pins for 2 counts. Mak powerbomb backbreakers Cam. BW siout powerbombs Karma. Mak runs the ramp with a fosbury flop on Cam then BW 2nd rope legdrops Karma. Mark and BW pick up stereo pins to win.

Thoughts: Cam and Mak have pretty cool costumes. They had a few botches here so this wasn't as good as the other matches. I felt like this got enough time. I don't think BW is quite as far along as the others and Karma maybe should have gotten more time shine here. This was just average.

Torneo De Escuelas Quarter Final Match - Estudiante Jr. & Feroz vs. Diamante Escarlata & Magnetico

Dia is in the red here and has an unusual Tinieblas style mask only with designs in the black part of the mask (and eyeholes).

Thoughts: Estudiante was really over here for unknown reasons. It's not like he was great or anything. This was probably the least impressive match so far. These four just didn't click that well and weren't as impressive as the others.

Torneo De Escuelas Quarter Final Match - King Rex & Prometeo vs. Konjuro & Sombra Diabolika Jr.

Thoughts: Rex was over. He's a big dude and doesn't really do the typical lucha style, so I'm not sure how that will work. Sombra was a bit creative here with various springboards and Kon is pretty far along, so it's easy to see why he was already promoted to main cards. There was a styles clash here and I'd maybe say it was okay at best.

Torneo De Escuelas Quarter Final Match - Engendro & Jay Ortega vs. Rey Pegasus & Tornado

Rey has the baby blue on. Eng has a face mask, face paint and he comes out with a real snake. Jay is our only rookie without a mask.

Jay goes up and over Tornado. Jay stands on Tornado's hips and Rey does a dangerous looking crucifix driver on Jay. Tornado tope con hilos Eng through the ropes and Rey pins Jay.

Thoughts: Jay took an awful looking bump at the end here and had to be stretchered out. Hopefully he's okay but that spot was dangerous. Rey moves pretty well and was one of the better people on the show. He should be on the main roster. Eng's got a very unique look. This was okay.

Thoughts: It was a much better match than usual from the women. They kept things moving and kept it interesting. Kira got a lot of shine here and impressed. I would run this one back because it worked well and helped the girls.

Esf germans JA. Esf pumping knees him and superkicks him. JA powerbomb backbreakers him. JA straightjacket piledrivers him and pins him.

Thoughts: I don't usually enjoy these AEW vs CMLL matches and this wasn't the exception. There's a big styles clash and neither side gives in enough to make it work. Josh did too much here and it didn't mean a lot. It also went a lot longer than it needed to.  

Johnny Consejo vs. Angel de Oro vs. Daniel Garcia vs. Neon

Note - I'll just call Johnny "JTV" here as it's easier for me.

The four pair off and fight. Neon is thrown out as is Oro. DG and JTV tease fighting but then just hug each other and pose. DG and JTV are sent out. Neon cartwheles over Oro. Neon handsprings off the ropes. They botch a spot and DG pulls Neon out and sends him into the rails. JTV drops Oro face first onto the apron.

Oro slingshot swantons DG then Neon slingshot lariats DG. JTV moonlight drives Oro. DG twisting neckbreakers Neon. Oro 2nd rope superplexes DG. Neon top rope moonsaults while JTV does a top rope 450. Both get 2 counts.

Neon and JTV trade. JTV enzugiri's him from the apron. Neon takes a doomsday device but poisonrana's DG off of it. Neon canadian destroyers Oro and all 4 men are down.  

The four trade shots on their knees. JTV and DG hit stereo kicks on their opponents. JTV's leg is swung into DG. JTV is laid on the top rope. Neon rope walk double stomps JTV as he lays up top. Neon double springboard plancha's DG outside. JTV 2nd rope tornillo's Oro inside. JTV rolling alabama slams Oro then Oro gets his knees up on his starship pain. Neon asai moonsaults DG outside. JTV low blows Oro while the ref isn't looking and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a four-way and had the usual limitations those matches have. It was essentially a tag match with the foreigners teaming up against the CMLL guys. It got a bit more time than it needed and I thought it dragged a bit. I wasn't a big fan of this.

Oro calls out JTV on the mic after. He accuses JTV of disrespecting the country. Oro says JTV is in the wrong place and challenges him to a singles match. JTV says no and says he beat him already. He says there's nothing on the line. He suggests a hair vs hair match. Oro agrees but says it needs to happen right now. JTV superkicks him and sends him out. JTV bangs Oro's head off the rails. Oro sends him into the rails and JTv pounds on him. The ref separates them and that's it.

Overall thoughts: It was a longer show with a bunch of rookie tag matches here. All the tag matches were under 10 minutes and basically under tornado tag rules so they were only going to be so good. I thought Rey Pegasus, Conquistador, King Rex and Konjuro were some of the better rookies. The women's match was better than I expected and probably the best match of the night. Josh/Esfinge had styles clash issues and the main was a bit long and the four-way format limited things. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as it was an okay show overall. 

Juggalo Championship Wrestling 2/19/2026 Lunacy Episode 71

Juggalo Championship Wrestling 2/19/2026 Lunacy Episode 71

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/juggalo-championship-wrestling-2122026.html

Veda Scott and Joe Dombrowski are on commentary.  

Big Vito comes out to talk. Vito says it's great to be him tonight. Vito tells the fans to wipe the paint off their faces then go out, come in and pay $5. He says Faygo is not for sale tonight. He says Vince Russo had to leave for a family emergency. Vito says he's in charge tonight.

Vito goes to read off his paper and the crowd chants, "you can't read". Vito promises to kick the sh!t out of all of them. Vito says he will give Kerry Morton a chance of a lifetime against a man he can't stand. He says this guy snorts illegal substances and says his name is CoKane. He says if Kerry can beat CoKane, he will get his CoKane's title shot, compliments of the Luciano Enterprise. Vito asks the crowd how they like that for someone who can't read? 

Vito says he has evidence to ruin Ruffo and Yabo's lives. He then brings them out. Yabo and Ruffo come out. Vito say he has something belongs to them and gives them back their wallets that he took. He said he took their ID's and knows who they are. He says he took their credit cards too. Vito says they can do this the easy way or the hard way. He says they either come work for him or he ruins their lives. 

Ruffo says they will not be blackmailed by a bald-headed paizan named Vito. Ruffo says they won't do things the easy way or the hard way, they will do things the fun way. Yabo says this is JCW and they do clown sh!t here. Vito tries to hit them from behind but is caught. Mickie Knuckles and PCO then hit The Clown's. Ruffo takes a low blow. They stomp The Clown's and Vito asks for a little more. Vito then pays them and says we will have ourselves a party. Vito says we will do this the hard way to The Clown's.

KM slides out. Someone in a bandana beats up KM outside for the DQ. It turns out to be Matt Cross after security breaks it up.

Thoughts: What we go up to the DQ was acceptable but sadly we didn't get a finish here. Kane needs to cash-in his title shot already before he loses it. 

Alice Crowley yells at Big Vito in his office. Al asks what's up with Russo? Vito says Russo's wife got hurt at work and is in the hospital. Al asks if she's okay and Vito says she got what she wanted and Russo isn't here. Vito tells her to go back to social media, stick it up her @ss and get out of his office.

Choppa City argue in the back. They say they've been begging for an opportunity then they just took out one of the biggest teams in JCW. They ask what they are thinking. They say they came here to chop suckas. They talk about chopping zombies and the one said he chopped one in 1997 who may be the same zombie. The one says it'll be choptastic and says let's go chop these suckas. 

J-Rod goes up to Alice Crowley and asks what she will do in the street fight tonight to stakck the odds against her. Alice says it'll be a competitive match for her and she won't stack the odds against her.

The Zombies pound and tear at Bruce. Atiba is then flapjacked onto Bruce. The Zomies pile them on each other and pound on them. 

We hear a scream and The Outbreak head to the back. Choppa City wins via DQ.

Thoughts: It wasn't so much of a match but I liked the story of The Outbreak being more dangerous without Barnabus managing them.

We go to break and return. Choppa City is down in the back. Bruce tells Atiba no more ideas. Bruce says they got jumped by 16 ideas and blames Atiba for the horrrible idea. Bruce asks what happened. Atiba asks what he's talking about and Bruce starts talking about 1997. Bruce says it'll be alright and he's sorry.

Street Fight - J-Rod vs Dani Mo

Thoughts: It was a short street fight here with them legit fighting in an alley for this. I liked this and it was something we don't normally see. This also furthers the Haley/Rod story.

Dani, Maria and Haley all stomp Rod after while she's wrapped up in the carpet. 

Big Vito talks to Mickie Knuckles in the back. He says she looks good. Mickie says she owes him a dessert. Vito's hand is near her crotch. Vito says he feels pressured and Mickie tells him to saddle up. Mickie says she wants his cream filled cannoli and grabs him by the crotch. She is then told she's up next and says she has to go.

J-Rod is upset in the bathroom and comes out. Alice Crowley walks near. J-Rod says she was looking for her and says she was supposed to stack the match in her favor. They shove each other and Al is sent into the walls a few times and goes down. J-Rod tells her that next time, she knows better.

Funhouse Rules Match - The Brothers of Funstruction (Ruffo the Clown and Yabo the Clown) vs The Lucciano Family Enterprise (Mickie Knuckles and PCO)

MK and PCO are allowed use weapons but Yabo and Ruffo can't.

The four trade forearms. Ruffo hits punches on MK then pumping knees her out. Yabo chops PCO with his tie. Ruffo does the same. MK bites Yabo's hand. PCO uses a kendo stick on The Clown's.

MK chairs Yabo. Ruffo punches through the chair with the hulk fist. PCO then chairs Ruffo. Yabo is back body dropped onto Ruffo. PCO top rope moonsaults Ruffo and pins him.

Thoughts: It was short and to the point. It was almost all weapons shots here and PCO's team got the win. What we got was acceptable enough.

Big Vito comes out and claps for PCO and MK.

We go to break and return. Big Vito is hyped for his team winning. He goes in a limo and says the camera man is coming out with him for dinner, dancing and a jacuzzi full of naked women. Jasmine St. Clair then pops up behind Vito in the car and kisses him. She asks if he missed her. She says she told him not to f*ck with her. She says he doesn't get away. Vito tells her to stay away. Vito tries to get out but is locked in. Mr. Happy and Kongo Kong surround the car and Vito says she set him up. Vito has the driver roll down the window and it's Violent J. J says he'll be his chauffeur and that means he's f*cked. Happy and Kongo then seemingly attack Vito as we cut away.

Overall thoughts: The show was pretty similar to last few weeks - shorter matches that are straight to the point and lots of storylines playing out in various segment following the matches. I really find this show hard to put down once it gets going and there's always a lot going on. The ending to this one was really good with Jasmine St. Claire getting her revenge on Big Vito. I thought the stuff with Choppa City and Vito/Knuckles was a lot of fun too. I'd give this show a 6 out of 10 and I thought it was good. As always, if you are looking for 5 star matches, this isn't it. But if you want a more storyline based show along with the craziness of ICP, this one is for you.

WWE Smackdown 2/20/2026

Kiana's got skills, just she needed the chance to show it and this is hopefully the start of something for her. The match was alright with Flair and Nia going at it. KJ was just kind of tossed to the side for the first part of this.

Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky watch the show in the back. Rhea congratulates Kiana and says it's an upset. Iyo says Kiana's partner won't be so lucky tonight.

Cody Rhodes talks to Sami Zayn in the back. Cody said Sami has nothing to be ashamed of. Sami says Cody should be ashamed of himself though. He said he helped save Cody from Drew and Cody hit him with a cross rhodes. Sami says Cody put a knife in his back. Cody tries to explain it and said he took an advantage of an opportunity. He says Sami had the opportunities come to him but he didn't take advantage of them and that's why he's not champ. Sami says it's easy for Cody to say when he's the golden boy. Sami says Cody was chosen and got to finish his story. Sami says nobody chose him and he's been trying to finish his story for 10 years. He says Cody doesn't know what it's like to do the right thing and see it blow up in his face. Cody asks where Sami was in Germany when Fatu interfered. Cody says not to lecture him about struggles.

Thoughts: The crowd started reacting and looking to the side and G thought she was getting cheered...nope it's Nia coming in. This was one of Giulia's better WWE matches as Rhea could work with her a little. The finish was a bit lame and it's a shame we didn't get to see where things could have gone.

RR is double teamed in the corner. Iyo Sky comes out and helps out RR.

The Miz talks to Oba Femi in the back. He says he had an impressive showing and is a Wrestlemania main event waiting to happen. He says he wants to coach the younger guys now with Cena missing. He says he can show Oba the ropes inside and out. Oba asks him to show him the ropes next week and says he will talk to Aldis about this. Miz figures out what he meant and says, "no, not a match".

Thoughts: It was about an average main. Drew attacking Orton was a bit weak and there wasn't a ton of reasons to get real into this bout. This is definitely one of Black's biggest wins to date. 

We then get a graphic of Kerwin Silfies, a WWE production guy, to close the show.

Overall thoughts: It was a longer show as these three hour SD's tend to be. They had a lot of decent wrestling on the show though and that did help things. Nothing was bad here and I thought they accomplished a lot. I'd say the Trick/Melo/Priest three way was the best match on here and Sami's promo on Cody was the highlight of the show. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 and it was a good show overall.

He asked him if he could trust him and Leon said he would have his back. Mike said he did have his back. Mike says he didn't have his back and left him out here by himself.

Mike says Leon ended up pinning a former world champ. Leon says he knows things can be crazy here but he pinned a former world champ in the ring and says he pinned Nic Nemeth. Nic and Ryan Nemeth come out. Ryan starts to talk and Mike threatens him.

Nic says Mike and Leon are champs but both got lucky. Nic says Leon has a target on his back. Mike says it wasn't luck, Leon pinned him because he's one of the best in the world and the youngest in charge. Nic says he's the best man alive and the draw around here. Leon says no one wants to hear this. He says the fans would rather see Mike and Leon. Nic asks if they want some and Leon says yes. Leon says they can do this right now.

Daria Rae comes out. Daria tells everyone to shut up and says she makes the matches around here, not the wrestlers. Daria tells them to get out of the ring as a match is scheduled.

Daria Rae is on the phone. Frankie Kazarian goes up to her. Kaz says AMC needs to hear him on commentary and asks if he can be on commentary for the Mike/Leon vs Nemeth's match. She agrees.

She says you don't have to like it but have to accept it. Grace says daddy got her match but she won the match. he says she's sorry her dad let her play her like a fiddle. She says wrestling is about using leverage and power to get what you want. She says she used everything and says Stacks will use rematch clause and win his title back. She says they will solidify themselves as the most powerful couple in wrestling.

Thoughts: It was a wild one. Ali took some awful looking moves as usual here. He took a back body drop off the ramp through a 3v3 set up chairs and took a guitar shot to the face. This was a bit wasted on TV as breaks interrupted it and it's a shame we didn't get it on PPV instead. I liked what we got here and it was an entertaining main.

Overall thoughts: This was one of the better AMC episodes so far. The main was good. Swann/BDE had a good match and Tessa/Jodi mostly went well. The opening match was ugly though and Daria Rae's gimmick of tearing down the men isn't working. I don't like what they are doing with The System, as they are not being pushed as a true force and Moose not appearing so much is really hurting his feud with them. They've also done a poor job of following up on the Kaz title run, though that shouldn't have happened in the first place. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 as it was an okay show.

WWE Main Event 2/19/2026

WWE Main Event 2/19/2026

Ivy takes a 2nd rope gordbuster. Sky top rope crossbodies her and Ivy rolls through. Ivy hits a swinging uranage and pin her.

Thoughts: It was one of Ivy's better matches. The crowd didn't know Sky so they didn't react. However, Sky was very good here. She did a bunch of nice flying offense and was really moving well here. She's already better than some of the girls on the main roster and she's going to be a good pro wrestler. I hope we see more of her soon.

Overall thoughts: We had 3 new matches here. We had a better line-up than usual with The Wyatt's and Oba in action. The main was the best thing on here and Skylar Rae really impressed. It was a fun little half hour of wrestling and not a bad way to spend your time. If you haven't seen Skylar yet, you should, because she's going places.

Ring of Honor on HonorClub 2/19/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/ring-of-honor-on-honorclub-2122026.html

Thoughts: It was an underdog vs hoss match here. Mark won as expected. Tuck got some shine here and was ultimately put down. I get the feeling that Tuck is a comedy guy but we didn't see that much comedy from him here.

Thoughts: Aysha got a lot of time here. I'd say she has some potential but she's 9 years into this and should be a bit better than she was. Hart and Blue didn't impress and I'd argue the jobbers had a better showing than they did. Ay landed hard on the finish here. 

Dalton Castle & The Outrunners (Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd) vs. North Shore Wrestling (Jack Osborne, Sam Osborne & Will Kiedis)

Tuth and Will go at it. Truth side headlocks him. Will side headlocks him. Truth armdrags him. Will chops Truth then Truth chops him. Will takes a kneelift then a backdrop.

DC is stomped on by the the jobbers. Will 2nd rope elbow drops DC. Truth hits a dropkick. The faces hit stereo slams. Will takes a double elbow drop and is pinned.

Thoughts: It was a bit competitive and not a total squash which was nice. It was acceptable and the faces ultimately got the win as expected.

Evans hits knees to the skull and superkicks her. Evans facekicks her. Mina spinning forearms her then buzzsaw kicks her from behind. Mina uraken's her. Mina hits a lifting reverse ddt and pins her.

Thoughts: It got more than enough time to play out but was average. Mina worked the knee for a bit then gave up on it. Evans stuck more to stiff boots while Mina was a bit more flashy. 

Shawn Dean vs Robbie Eagles

They lock up. Dean holds him by the wrist and forearms him. Rob walks up the ropes and diving armdrags him. Rob flying headscissors him then spinning heel kicks him. Dean goes out and Rob follow. Dean stomps Rob as he tries to get in. Dean shoulders him over.

Thoughts: Dean did a bad job of selling the knee here. Robbie sold his knee more and Dean didn't even attack the knees. It wasn't that good and Dean didn't impress here. Ian's commentary was horrible here as they joked about sexual puns the whole time.

Overall thoughts: Most of the matches are random on a typical ROH episode. Every match was random here. Not a single storyline was furthered or pushed in anyway. The champs weren't here and only the last three matches really got enough time to fully play out. I guess you could say this was a special episode but they didn't market it as such and there wasn't a lot of effort put into this. I'd maybe say The Outrunners' match was the best on this one but that's not saying much. I'd give this a 4 out of 10 as it was mostly a waste of time. 

WWE Evolve 2/18/2026

WWE Evolve 2/18/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/02/wwe-evolve-2112026.html

Grey says she heard beating her is going to be an uphill climb but she loves stacking the odds against herself and watching herself beat them. PJ says she shows up and and out.

She tell her to come get her issue. Grey signs the contract and PJ bang's Grey's head off the table. She then punches Grey down. She says everyone talks about how Grey is due for greatness and she's not waiting for that.

Cappuccino Jones does a video. He says seeing other WWE ID guys get called up and now him, it gets things brewing in him. He says not everyone ha a taste. He says he likes to have fun but his flavor is top shelf. He says it's time to start waking people up and that starts with winning the Evolve Title from Drake. He says the pot is hot.

Harlem Lewis is probably going to attack Jensen here.

Thoughts: It wasn't that interesting of a match as expected. There wasn't any real reason to care about this and it was pretty average.

BJ says he put Harlem Lewis down once and will do it again at Succession.

Wendy Choo does a video. She says she was trying to be someone she wasn't for a while and is exhausted. She says she tried to share advice with Kali and it backfired. She says Kali is not going to punch her in the stomach and get away with it. She says let's see if The Difference Maker has it all figured out or if she fakes it until she makes it.  

The Vanity Project are recovering from a party in the back. Sean Legacy, Aaron Rourke and Mike Cunningham come in. They say The Project needs to lock in. Aaron says Team WWE PC wants a 10-man tag with them. Sean says they have to put an end to Cam, Harley and Braxton or it will follow them. Sean says they have to leave the WWE ID project in good hands. Aaron says they can't beat them when they are united together. Mike says it's main man energy.

Cam, Braxton and Harley come in. Cam says they have a 10-man tag next week. He says Jax is injured. Cam says DM can't trust the WWE ID guys. He says WWE PC are the winners. He says they have a spot for him. Cam says he's leading things to NXT and Wrestlemania. Cam puts his arm around him. DM says he knows exactly what side of history he wants to be on. The announcers say it sounds like a no, but his words implied otherwise. Gal asks to be put on Team WWE PC. Gal basically begs but they ignore him.  

Thoughts: They implied here that Keanu Carver is now permanently on NXT and since he's not listed for the 10-man tag, I would believe them. 

Kali Armstrong talks outside. She says she hurt Wendy's feelings but it wasn't personal, he didn't need her help. Kali said no one offered her advice on her way to the top and now everyone wants to be buddy-buddy while she's on her way to the top. She says she found herself and says she feels the fire when she had when she was champ. She says she accepts Wendy's challenge but will make her regret putting her name in her mouth.

Nikkita Lyons and Arianna Grace vs Masyn Holiday and Layla Diggs

Mas and LD dance to the ring as usual. Grace has stacks with her. Chantel Monroe is in the VIP Section.

Mas crossbodies her for 2. LD 2nd rope double axe handles Grace's arm then wristlocks her. LD trips Lyons then side headlocks her. All 4 get in and the faces hit stereo dropkicks.

LD flips out of a lariat and hits a pele kick off of it for 2. Grace codebreakers Mas. LD backrolls Grace for 2. Lyons high kicks LD then Grace hits a wasteland on LD and pins her.

Thoughts: It was an average match for the most part. They hit their stuff clean but the match wasn't that great. I was a little surprised to see the heels win. 

Tate Wilder talks in the back. He says Evolve has been involved in conflict and division for a while and says Evolve has become a war zone between Team WWE ID and Team WWE PC. He says he tried to do the right thing but WWE PC is obsessed with destroying the other team. He says he can't stand for the injustice, power trips and sneak attacks. He says this business and life isn't fair. He says he will make the 10-man tag fair as he will be the special guest ref. He says the sheriff of justice is coming to town.

Overall thoughts: Nothing was that great here in-ring wise but they are doing a good job outside of the ring. They've got a lot of things set-up with Choo/Kali, Grey/PJ, WWE ID vs WWE PC and Grace/Lyons doing their heel thing. I wouldn't say there was a clear match of the night here. I would give it a slight 6 out of 10 overall but you don't need to see this one.
