Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/10/wwe-main-event-10232025.html 

We are in Perth, Australia for this.

Rey Fenix vs Grayson Waller

GW gets chants as he is at home here. GW ducks a side headlock and taunts him. GW side headlocks him. Rey flying headscissors him. GW springboard diving armdrags him.

Rey walks up the buckles and corkscrew flip armdrags him off the ropes. GW flying headscissors him. They headflip up together and stand off.

GW offers a handshake and punches him. GW then hits mounted shots. Rey jawbreakers GW then GW spinning forearms him for 2. GW rope walk elbow drops him for 2. Rey boots him out of the corner and hits lariats. Rey spinning lariats him then rolls into a hurricanrana.

Rey's throat is pulled down over the top. GW goes out, comes in and rolls into a flatliner on him for 2. GW comes off the 2nd rope and is superkicked. GW hits like a flipping overdrive off the buckles and pins Rey.

Thoughts: It was an unusual one as GW is a heel but he's at home so he got cheered. I think they dealt with it the best they could and thankfully didn't have GW try to get the crowd to turn on him. GW comes up with some really creative offense and the finisher he used here is a new one. GW tried in this and it was more of a showcase for him than Rey. What we got was fine. 

American Made (Brutus and Julius Creed) vs The War Raiders (Ivar and Erik)

BC = Brutus Creed, JC = Julius Creed

The Creed's tease leaving during their entrance when the crowd boos them. I feel like we haven't see them much at all lately which is a shame as JC should be getting groomed for main events. Ivy has her hair down and looks nice with it.

BC is slammed early then Ivar is slammed onto him. JC hits Erik from the apron then BC lariats Erik. BC top rope double hammerfists Erik. JC hits corner spears on Erik. Erik uranages him. Ivy gets on the apron and Erik is distracted. BC nails Erik from behind and olympic slams him.

We go to break and return. JC stomps Erik. Erik goes up and over and tags in Ivar. Ivar back body drops JC then side slams him. Ivar low crossbodies him. Ivar lariats BC then tiger drivers JC for 2. Ivar is up top, JC jumps up top and superplexes him. BC then top rope moonsaults Ivar for 2.

Ivar handspring double back elbows The Creed's. JC jumping knees Erik. Ivar takes an inverted AA + jumping knee for 2. Erik exploders JC. Ivar spinning high kicks BC then JC is popped up into a passover powerslam and pinned.

Thoughts: It was a quicker one here even for Main Event standards. What we got was acceptable but far from anyone's best.

We also get a video with Natalya training Maxxine Drupri that I don't think we have seen already. 

Overall thoughts: We only had 2 matches here along with the usual recaps. Both were short (even for Main Event standards) and neither were that great. Waller essentially worked face in his match and hit a cool new finisher and The Creed's/War Raiders was too short to be anything. I wouldn't recommend this one.
