10/2 notes

10/2 notes

I should have ROH and WWE Main Event up later. 

I will be busy during the day on 10/3. I do not know what I will be able to get done, but Collision should be a safe bet at least.

TNA Impact 10/1/2026

TNA Impact 10/1/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/tna-impact-9242026.html

We are in San Antonio, TX. Tom Hannifan and Matt Rehwoldt are on commentary. 

We get a graphic for Pac to start.

We see The Hardy's arrive. 

The Personal Concierge comes out and talks about the Alamo. He says the people of San Antonio lost and they are all losers.

Mr. Elegance vs BDE

Mr side headlock takeovers him. BDE springboard twisting crossbodies him. BDE armdrags him out then topes him. BDE misses a blind springboard and Mr gets a 2 count on him. Mr running knees him. Mr pops him up into a slap. 

Mr cravates him. Mr goes up and over then he germans him. Mr running lariats him for 2. Mr suplexes him for 2. BDE rolls into a codebreaker on him. BDE goes for a dive and is hit. Mr slingshot codebreakers him. Mr goes for a backdrop but BDE sunset flips him out of it and wins.

Thoughts: BDE for his first singles win here. What we got was acceptable but nothing too great. The loss streak really did nothing for BDE and that's impressive. But it was never really featured all that much.

Mr. Elegance throws a tantrum after and pushes The Personal Concierge over. 

John Skyler goes up to Jason Hotch with Mila Moore and says it's just like old times. Jason says Ali talked down to his daughter. He says John wouldn't leave Order 4 when he asked him to as he said he needed a job, but then did once Mila Moore came around. John says Jason showed him his kids' birthdays and celebrations but he had nothing to show him and nothing to go home to. He says he's happy now and found his person. He says he needs to know that his brother will be by his side tonight.

The Home Town Man hangs out with the Dude Wipes mascot Deuce. Deuce gives him dude wipes and Home is excited about getting mint wipes. Expressions and AJ Francis come in. AJ asks if Deuce if he knows he's only here because of him. He tells Deuce to do his job tonight then pokes him and Deuce falls over. AJ then takes the dude wipes from Home.

Thoughts: Yeah, this is the problem with the Dude Wipes mascot. There's just no way to feature it in any way that is relevant to wrestling or that makes anyone look good. 

Zoey Sorrano vs Indi Hartwell

Xia Brookside is on commentary.

Indi attacks her as they come out and they fight outside. Indi hits euros and Zoey superkicks her. Indi throws a jacket at her and they fight on the floor. Indi's back is rammed into the apron edge. Indi lariats Zoey on the apron and lariats her inside. The bell then rings to start this officially.

Zoey superkicks her and half-nelson suplexes her. Zoey running knees her then hits mounted shot on her. Zoey suplexes her. Zoey springboards and is caught with a spinebuster. Indi lariats her over the top. Indi facekicks Zoey outside.

Indi is pushed into the post then sent into the steps. Zoey then facekicks a ringside security guy. Zoey then chairs Indi in the gut and is DQ'd.

Thoughts: It was a shorter bout and was mostly all acceptable brawling here until it ended.

Security come out as Zoey chairs Indi. Zoey leaves. Xia Brookside comes in and hits Indi with the Knockouts Title. 

Order 4 (Mustafa Ali and Agent Zero) vs The Great Hands (John Skyler and Jason Hotch)

Tasha Steelz is with Ali's team and Mila Moore is with John's team.

Ali dropkicks John off the apron to start while aiming for Hotch. Jason pounds on Ali and corkscrew kicks him. Jason corner flying forearms him then springboard dropkicks Zero. Jason is sent to the apron and knocked down there. Ali dropkicks John through the ropes. Jason 2nd rope moonsaults Ali.

Jason superkicks Ali outside. Jason jumps over the top, Zero catches him on the apron and gorilla press drops him on the apron. Ali bridging ddt's Jason on the floor from the apron. John spears Ali outside and pounds on him. John spears Zero on the apron. 

Ali boots John in the ring. Ali takes a shatter machine from The Hands. Zero headbutts The Hands and double lariats them over the top. Zero then suicide dives them both. 

We go to break and return. Jason sitout powerbombs Ali. John comes in with Zero and hits punches and chops. John knees him out of the corner and sends Ali face first into the 2nd buckle. John tornado ddt's Zero for 2. Zero has The Hands by the throat. He then takes a legsweep + lariat combo.

Zero has The Hands on each shoulder and he double powerbombs them down together. Ali tries to kick away Mila Moore from holding the ropes. Jason crossbodies Zero over the top and goes with him. Ali misses a top rope 450. John slingshot spears Ali for 2. 

John is tripped into the ropes and Ali figure fours John. Ali submits John.

Thoughts: I liked it. It was all action and they all took some big bumps here. They had a bunch of storylines going on and did well with it but they could have maybe pushed the issues between Zero/Ali more. I thought it was good and enjoyed this a lot more than expected.

Ali keeps the hold on John. Jason breaks it up. Ali tells Zero to get them. Zero punches out Jason. Ali pokes Zero and tells him to get John. Zero stares at Ali and facekicks John. Ali then yells at Tasha Steelz. Tasha tells Zero to get Ali. Zero then lariats Ali down. Tasha holds the International Title up and tells Zero to get Mila. Zero double arm chokeslams Mila. Zero and Tasha pose with each other.

Thoughts:
It was a fun angle. Tasha and Zero as a thing is something different.

TNA Injury Report

Indi Hartwell is under evaluation. The Hardy's are more angry than injured and are cleared. 

Order 4 all runs into each other in the back and no one is happy to see the other. Zero, Ali, Hotch and Skyler then fight and security breaks it up. Santino comes in and says not here and not now. He says they will fight for the International Title at Bound For Glory.

Expressions comes out and wants to celebrate the NY Knicks making the NBA Finals. He then tells everyone to show respect for AJ Francis.

Deuce, the Dude Wipes mascot, is shown on camera.

AJ Francis vs Moose

Moose goes after Expressions. AJ pounds on Moose and corner splashes him. Moose corner spears AJ. Moose misses a corner spear and AJ hits tennessee whiskey on him. Moose sends AJ out. AJ pushes Moose into the steps. 

Moose headbutts AJ in the chest. Moose hits lariats on AJ. AJ faceicks Moose down. AJ misses a senton Moose. Moose pump kicks him and AJ suplexes Moose for 2. AJ chin and armlocks Moose.

Expressions gets on the apron and Moose grabs him. AJ lariats Moose down and spears him for 2. AJ tells Expressions to get the table. AJ pours Dude Wipes on the table. Deuce gets in the ring and saves Moose. Moose pump kicks Expressions off the apron through the table. AJ grabs Deuce. Moose htis AJ with a toilet seat and spears him. The ref then counts the pin with Deuce in the ring.

Thoughts: That pin should not have been attempted with Deuce in the ring. As I said earlier with the Dude Wipes stuff, that opinion still stands. I don't think this was the match you do the Dude Wipes stuff with and it's just not a good look. The work wasn't bad and they tried to make the best of this, but I don't think this was a good idea.

Kiera Hogan and Allie find Rosemary in a straightjacket, I guess at a mental institution. Allie asks if this is real and asks who is in whose head. Allie asks when Rosemary is coming back. Rosemary says she can't come back or stay there. Allie says she doesn't understand but she hears her. Rose yells at her to beware of snakes in the grass.

Joe Alonzo talks on the mic before his match. He says it's Total Nonstop Alonzo. He says he doesn't embrace losses like San Antonio. He says he lost to KC Navarro weeks ago and says the person to blame for it is Leon Slater. Joe says everyone is sick of Leon talking about breaking the record for being the youngest TNA champ and complains about him cheerleading for KC. Joe makes a live involving Nic Nemeth and does his gyration taunt. Joe says he will give Nic the night off at Bound For Glory. 

Joe says Leon is a one trick pony and a flash in the pan that the people will give up on in a year. Joe says Leon took his spot so he will make sure he doesn't make it to Bound For Glory.

Leon Slater vs Joe Alonzo

Leon leg lariats him as soon as it starts. Leon swanton 450's him and pins him.

Thoughts: Yeah, this was more about Joe's promo than the wrestling. Talking and being annoying is what Joe does and he got a reaction from the crowd, so it worked.

Nic Nemeth goes to jump in after but backs off. He grabs Leon's jacket and puts it on. Nic then runs. Leon then grabs Nic's 2 title belts outside.

We see Kaz working out in the ring with Avery Styles. He teaches Avery some wrestling stuff.

The Elegance Brand talks minus Ash. Elayna Black comes in. She says she wants M to take a look at the girl who will take her title. M says the bad news is now Black has to face her. Black says she will face her and take the title. M says she's the centerpiece of the group and Black asks Heather how she feels about that. George says Black is scared. Black says they are scared as she will be the new champ. She says Heather can carry the brand when she wins. M says their match will be the most embarrassing moment of their life. Black challenges her to defend her title without the Elegance Brand and M agrees. Black says the era of Elayna officially beings next week. Black leaves and George Iceman asks what she's thinking.

Cedric Alexander vs Ricky Sosa

RS backs him up on the ropes and does his pose. Ced trips him and piefaces him. RS stomps him and yanks him into a northern lights suplex. They forearm each other and RS dropkicks him. RS suicide dives him outside. 

We go to break and return. RS hits punches on Ced. Ced germans him. Ced running forearms him in the corner and basement dropkicks him in the back of the neck. Ced chops him outside and RS punches back. Ced enzugiri's him. There's someone in some kind of giant mascot type of head in the front row that looks like Marilyn Manson.

Ced tries pins on RS inside then he does a cobra clutch variation on him. Ced throws him down backwards. Ced spin kicks him in the gut and RS suplexes him. RS corkscrew kicks him. 

Ced comes off the 2nd rope and is caught with a suplex for 2. Ced suplexes him. RS side headlock takeovers him. Ced springboards and is caught with a blue thunder. The System try to interfere and get kicked off the apron. RS flying headscissors Ced off the apron onto his buddies outside.

Alisha Edwards gets on the apron then Eddie Edwards low blows RS. Ced lumbar checks RS and pins him.

Thoughts: It was an okay bout. There was a lot of flying here. The headscissors over the top off the apron spot was pretty cool. Ced won via interference to save Sosa the loss. The two worked together just fine.

Syx come out. Joseph Sawyer says "we're here". Samuel Shaw says everyone has been wondering who has been taking people out. He says they are the answer but you are asking the wrong questions. He says you should ask, "Why?". Shaw says TNA is rotten place. He says sometimes a place becomes so rotten that it has to be cut apart. Joe says they do the cutting one by one. Joe says no one is safe and no help is coming. Joe says if you are here in any form, you are on the chopping block.

Shaw says every chopping block has a name at the top and The Hardy's are on top of it. Shaw says The Hardy's proved to everyone that they can't be killed. Shaw says they tried and they survived. Shaw says now they get to do it again. Joe says last week they wanted them and got them. Joe says they spent their lives being extreme and let's see how hard it is to kill them. Joe says if sick is what they are, sick is what they'll be.

The Hardy's come out. Matt says Syx attacked people from behind and hid in the shadows. Jeff says they keep trying to take them out but they are still standing. Matt says they failed to put them down. Matt says they are unkillable and won't die. Matt says if they want to kill The Hardy's, let's make it happen. Matt then asks for a No DQ, Falls Count Anywhere match at Bound For Glory. Jeff says he loves the idea and they don't have to wait. Jeff says they can do it tonight.

The Hardy's head down to the ring. The lights go out and Syx are gone. The Hardy's are left looking around and the show ends.

Thoughts: This was a wet fart of a segment here and was a bad way to end the show with The Hardy's looking around pointlessly.

Overall thoughts: While TNA is at a low point starpower wise, the booking has been better lately. The opener was acceptable. Zoey/Indi was all brawling until the DQ. I thought The Order 4 split-up match was good. The work wasn't bad in AJ/Moose but the Dude Wipes stuff is not something top guys should be associated with. Leon Slater won a quick squash. Cedric/Sosa had an okay match. The final segment of the show ended on a low note as The Hardy's were just left looking around for Syx. We had some good stuff here, but also some low points. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 overall but I'd still say it was acceptable.

He says Brandon is the one who needs to be concerned as he's a junior and he's facing the power of Los Inmortales. He tells him to bring it all as truth is coming after him.

"La Amenaza" Bryan then comes out an lariats an Informante. He then lariats Wil on accident. An Info vader bombs Wil and picks up the cheap win.

Thoughts: We've seen this already but we've seen this match so many times that it took a while to even notice. It wasn't anything special and had tons of interference. This was mostly notable for being the bout that sets up Bryan vs Wil.

Lou Forza does a promo. He says he looked at himself in the mirror and said he would prove himself against the best and show what he's made of. He says most of the time, he's had to do it in Aguadilla. He says he has a new challenger in WIlfredo Rivera. He says it's not a test for him but is a test for Wil. He says it's nothing personal and he wants him to bring "El Conflicto" Wilfredo Rivera to the ring with him. He says he will show him for the first time and the last time that no one stops "El Salvador".

Wilfredo Rivera does a promo. He says it wasn't his night at Septiembre Negro. He congratulates Bryan on the great match last night and says he's one of the best. He says he learned a lot in that loss and came out better. He says Lou Forza has bad news coming when he faces him on 10/18. He says Lou is a great talent and he knows what he's capable of. He says he's going to get up and start with this match. He tells him to ask his partner Sole what he's made of.

Xavant does a promo. He thanks everyone who came to Septiembre Negro. He says he has an important match in Aguadilla vs Bryan. He says Bryan is complaining more than usual. He says he himself is unstoppable. He says it will be 1v1 and there won't be any excuses. He says he's ready for him. He says he's the champ and fights with all of his heart as that's what heroes do.

"La Amenaza" Bryan does a promo. He says it's 1v1 vs Xavant and that's how he likes it. He says few people annoy me in this business but he's one of them. He says he sees his fat face and disgusting cheeks and wants to knock out some of his teeth. He asks what kind of hero he is and says he's the hero nobody asked for. He says nobody likes him or appreciates him and it's time for him to stop with the stupidity of thinking he's Captain America. He says they will end this once and for all and he'll see him on 10/18. He tells him to get it through his head. He says he's ready. This was funny.

Ray Gonzalez vs Chicano

He says he doesn't understand Eddie Colon and says says they need to put on subtitles for Oscar Benabe's promos as he doesn't understand him.

Zcion RT1 does a promo. He says he returns to Agudailla on 10/18. He says this occasion is special as he will join forces with the future of this industry in Oscar Benabe. He says Mike Nice will always be the same drooling and disgusting person. He says Mike and Chicano don't know the trouble they got themselves into. He tells Oscar to get ready to rip Mike's head off. He says him and Chicano have many scores to settle so this will be simple. He says it will be war territory in Aguadilla as he's the maximum leader.

Oscar Benabe does a promo. He says he has 3 things to do in Aguadilla - team with Zcion, face Chicano and fight Mike Nice. He says he's coming for Mike and has him in his sights.

We return to the match. Chicano hits shots on Ray. Ray punches him and hits him in the gut. Ray slaps him and Chicano eye rakes him. Chicano is sent into the ref on accident. Ray hits leg kicks. Mike Nice grabs Ray and Chicano hits Mike on accident. Oscar pulls Chicano's throat over the top rope and Ray rolls up Chicano for the pin.

Thoughts: I felt like we missed a good chunk of this (or they really took it easy here because it was like a free show) but who knows. What we got didn't look bad, but who knows how much of this we really saw. It was mostly all punches.

Mike and Chicano hit the faces from behind after. El Payaso Makabro comes in and hits Mike with a guitar. Payaso then swings it at Chicano and Chicano spears him. Mike breaks the guitar over Payaso's head. Mike lariats Oscar down and Chicano pounds on Ray. Wilfredo Rivera and Zcion RT1 break it up and help the faces. The heels leave and pose outside.

Intelecto Cinco Estrellas does a promo. He says Lightning is a legend but he hasn't been able to speak to him. He calls him ungrateful for putting his hands on Orlando Toledo and he said he had to leave him laying on the floor. He says he will make him talk when he hits him. He says he's a legend that isn't a shadow of what he was.

Abel Durant then closes the show.

Overall thoughts: There was a live event the night before this. WWC couldn't tell us the results or give us any photos or videos, so we have to guess what happened from listening to various promos and looking at match graphics for the next show. It's very frustrating. We saw two matches here. We saw the one already. I'm not sure how much we saw of Ray Gonzalez/Chicano but it looked fine and it looked like the usual Ray Gonzalez match. It was all promos otherwise as usual with no real non-wrestling segments. I'd give this a 3 out of 10. It wasn't that good and they were lazy and cheap like usual with us.

Haley pounds on J and chases her around. They then run to the back and J is counted out.

Thoughts:
It was average for the most part. Their hit their stuff clean but the work wasn't anything special and we had a countout.

Dani yells at Pondo after. Pondo throws her down and yells at her. 2 refs stop Pondo. Pondo attacks them and hits one of them in the head with his stop sign. 

Krule has roses in the back. He then pushes the camera man away.

Mack Davis interviews Violent J. J tells him he stinks (from Bigfoot) and Mack tells him to wash his hand too. Mad Man Pondo comes in and says he loves this ref thing. J says Pondo hasn't been an official but has been kicking @ss out there. He says he gave him his ref shirt to show younger officials the way. He says all Pondo has been showing hem is @ss kicking.

Pondo says he doesn't put up with anything and says he shouldn't either. The ref says Pondo is a deathmatch legend and he's not paid enough to be disrespected like that. Pondo hits him with a stop sign and stomps him. He says, "How about now? Do they pay you enough now?".

Violent J is cooling down in the back. He is given papers by someone and told he has been served. J then reads the papers and yells, "F*ck".

Mack Davis interviews Father Bronson. Bron tells him he smells terrible and tells him to get out of his face. Bron says Kerry Morton's dad just had a birthday and turned 70. He wonders how disgusted he must feel about Kerry having to leave his boots in the ring and make an @ss of himself. He says he wants Kerry to feel having something taken from him and not have it handed to him. He says his title isn't on the line but Caleb's is tonight. He says Kerry can refer to him as a double champ when it's all said and done and tells him to watch closely.

The hosts talk.

JCW Lunacy Title - Caleb Konley (c) vs Father Bronson


Cal wristlocks him to start. Bron side headlocks him. Bron takes him over and hits mounted shots. Joel Gertner comes onto commentary and Josh Bishop comes out with him. Cal runs into Josh on the ramp and backs off.

Cal walks up the ramp and tells Josh Bishop to get out of the way. EC3 grabs Cal and bangs his head off the commentary table. We are told it's a no contest.

Thoughts:
The finish was not good here and the match wasn't that great either. I was hoping Bron would throat Caleb around more here. At least the finish happened for a reason.

EC bangs Cal's head off the post and the commentary table again. Josh Bishop then powerbombs Cal through the commentary table. 

Violent J checks out the papers he was served in the back. He is asked what the papers are. J says himself, JCW and The ICP are being sued for several million dollars.  

Overall thoughts: Storyline wise, it was one of JCW's best episodes. The stuff with Jasmine was hilarious as was the stuff with Bigfoot. Kerry Morton had a good farewell segment too. I was fine with Sally/Vincenzo. Dani/J-Rod was average. Krule/Paul was more to set up their program than to solve anything. The main had a weak finish and the match wasn't as good as I had hoped. I'd give it a 7 out of 10 as I really enjoyed the non-wrestling stuff here but if it wasn't for that, it'd be like a 5 out of 10.. The show also went short at 1 hour and 17 minutes which helped speed things along and made it more watchable. I thought it was a good show.

Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling Mayhem 9/30/2026

Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling Mayhem 9/30/2026 

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/maple-leaf-pro-wrestling-mayhem-9232026.html

Note - They said this is the season finale of Mayhem. There are no upcoming TV listings for MLP Mayhem and I believe they used all of their taped episodes. To put in bluntly - I think the show is on hiatus for a while. I'd assume if it comes back, there won't be new episodes until 2027.

We are in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Don Callis and Mauro Ranallo are our hosts. 

Nikki Storm vs. Dani Luna

They lock up and Dani shoves her down. Storm waistlocks her and is thrown down. Storm pokes her and is shoved down. Dani side headlock takeovers her. Dani fireman's carry takeovers her.

Thoughts: Both girls are newer so they both had more to lose than gain here. Storm has a title shot coming up so she had to win here. It showed some potential at times but slowed down a lot and was average.

Adam Copeland does a video. He says Steve Maclin made a point with him and said this was about other things until Maclin jumped him. He says it won't work out well for Steve and says he made it personal. He says it changes everything when it's personal and asks if Steve is ready for that. He says he has never faced someone that doesn't quit and has never taken no for an answer. He says we will find out if he's ready for that.

Rudra vs Vaughn Vertigo

Rud headbutts him. VV top rope swantons Rud's back while he is standing. Rud pump kicks him. Rud ripcord jumping knees him. Rud 2nd rope diving spears him and pins him.

Thoughts:
VV got a lot of offense in and Rudra didn't really get enough in here. Rudra did get the win as expected though. Vaughn's top rope swanton to the back is quite the unusual move. Rudra has some decent explosiveness to him.

We get a video on Psycho Mike where the voiceover lady talks about monsters being built and says every bad decision brought us here. She says survival isn't guranteed in Monster's Mayhem and someone is leaving broken. 

Subculture (Flash Morgan Webster & Mark Andrews) vs The Natural Classics (Stevie Filip & Tome Filip)

Mark has sweat flicked onto him from Tome (tanned one). Tome takes a shoulder to the gut. Tome is double hiptossed. Flash is flipped onto Tome and Mark standing twisting moonsaults Tome. Steve comes in and is armdragged by Flash.

Flash and Mark hit stereo tope con hilos outside. Steve takes a top rope ssp from Mark and gets pinned.

Thoughts
: It was fine. Subculture got to show off a bit and The Classics also flew around. They lost as expected. Subculture's push continues here.

We get a video on Josh Alexander vs Stu Grayson. Josh says he was out for months and is hungry to prove he's the best there is. Stu says he's hungry to prove he's that good. Stu says he did the work while Josh was out. Stu says there's one thing that separated them at Northern Rising - the winner gets to reap MLP and Canadian wrestling around the world. He says josh will have to kill him. Josh says the person who wants it more and has more heart will decide it. 

Billy Gunn, Neon, Psycho Mike & Sinner And Saint (Judas Icarus & Travis Williams) vs. 1st Faction (Brent Banks & Sheldon Jean), Dan Maff, Jonathan Gresham & Rohan Raja

JG is slammed onto Banks and Jean. Maff throws Mike out and Gunn lariats Maff over the top rope. Raja jumping flatliners Gunn and pins him.

Thoughts: Everyone got their section in and not much else. It didn't get a ton of time. It was an interesting mix of guys on the faces side. This worked well enough. It was alright.

The Grizzled Young Vets come out and attack Sinner and Saint. Mike and Maff fight. Andrade El Idolo comes out. He boots and forearms Raja on the ramp. They trade forearms. Idolo lariats him over the top rope. Security comes out and Idolo tope con hilos them and Raja. Idolo chairs Raja in the ring. 

We then get a music video hyping up some of the matches for the Northern Rising PPV.

Overall thoughts
: The opener was average. Rudra won a squash but didn't get that much in. Subculture had an alright match with The Natural Classics. The main didn't get a ton of time but it was an interesting mix of guys and it was okay. I don't think it was super effective as a go home show as a lot of the big names didn't wrestle or do new promos but as it's own show, it was acceptable. I'd give it a higher 5 out of 10 overall. 

WWE Worlds Collide 9/26/2026

WWE Worlds Collide 9/26/2026

Note - This was supposed to air against AEW All Out 2026. This show existed to counter that. The AEW show then sold out. It was getting close to the date of the show and we had no information about when it might air. Then we found out that it would be airing on Wednesday at 7PM. That was another odd move as this show then aired against WWE Evolve.

We are in Chicago, IL. JBL and Corey Graves are on commentary.

We see various wrestlers arrive.

Iguana tope con hilos outside. Iguana 2nd rope moonsaults outside. Negro spinning torture rack drops MS. MS satellite cradles Negro and pins him.

Thoughts: It wasn't quite as clean or as good as it should have been. It wasn't on the Americans either but the luchadores. This happens a lot too as these matches rarely end up being as good as they should be. What we got was alright though. Myka's flipping moonsault slam was cool but she did land on her head on it. The finish was botched some.

Thoughts:
I was alright with it as they didn't do too much here. It was mostly flying and that's what it should have been. They had some cool spots and kept this moving.

Thoughts: Big win for Mini here with him getting a major upset. It was all flying and chaos here as expected. I didn't like the spanish fly kickouts but I was alright with this one otherwise. This was exactly what it looked like on paper and they only had one real sloppy section here. It was fun. Mini's stock has really gone up around here fast.

Thoughts:
It was fine. It was a house show so they weren't going to do anything wild. The faces picked up the win here. They did what they were supposed to and it was enough. It was a safe match. JD taking the loss was predictable as he didn't fit into this one otherwise.

Omos nails the faces from behind. JD and Dom then join in on the attack. Oba Femi comes out to make the save. Dom and JD run from Omos and then Oba stares down with Omos. They go face to chest and Omos shoves him. Oba lariats him over the top. JD and Dorian hold Omos back on the outside. 

Overall thoughts: The opener was acceptable but these mixed tag openers never end up being as good as they should be and always have a couple of botches. Lee/Cartwheel didn't get too crazy and I was fine with it. I liked Toxicas/Influence more than I expected and that was fine. Reid had a good showing. The four-way was fun with lots of flying and cool moments. Mini Vikingo also picked up a big win. Catalina/Perez was acceptable. Los Perros match was fine. The main was alright, but it was a house show main event and they definitely took it easy. I'd give this a 6 out of 10. There was nothing great here and they definitely took it a little easier in some of the bouts. Half the matches were random. They gave us what we wanted with some neat WWE vs AAA matches and everything went well. It was an okay show but more of a bonus show than a supershow.

WWE Evolve 9/30/2026

WWE Evolve 9/30/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/09/wwe-evolve-9232026.html

Note - In an odd turn of events, WWE aired WWE World's Collide against this show. 

We are at the Performance Center in Orlando, FL. Robert Stone and Blake Howard are on commentary.

It's GAL does a video with cartoon graphics. He says he saved the day for WWE ID 1.0 and there's a new hero in town. He says he only needs wings to climb high. He says he's going to Succession after he takes care of Harley Riggins. He says Harley is legit but what good is a big rig when it runs out of gas.

Harlem Lewis comes out and holds his belt up. Security breaks it up.

Overall thoughts: Cole/Holyfield was acceptable and I really can't understand Cole's firing at all after decent showings like this. Choo/Capri was also acceptable and Capri is really coming across well in Evolve. Ash/Jones as an acceptable bout. Ash winning was a big upset and he did some new stuff. I liked the main and they had an athletic contest for two taller guys. The show was fine overall as a whole and I feel like Evolve is getting in the right groove. We'll see how things hold up post-Succession when half the roster is gone. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 and the show was alright.
