Thoughts: It was nice to see someone who could actually go with Kira's style here. Shoko could have hit some better spears and kicks here but I did like it and it was definitely above the usual offerings here.

Mist springboard crossbodies Yut. Yut then pulls Mist's mask off and is DQ'd. Mistico's team wins the fall and match.

Thoughts: I'm never a big fan of these finishes. Maybe it makes sense if the match is clearly gone or about to be decided but Yutani was still in this in my opinion and just cost his team the match for no reason. They did enough here but no one did anything too crazy or did their best work. It was a very average main event.

Overall thoughts: There were only 3 new matches here as usual. The women's match was better than what we usually get. The cibernetico was fine but nothing too outstanding or must see. The main was average/acceptable but it had a lame mask pulling finish. I'd give this a 6 out of 10.

Douki is popped up and low blowed while the ref is down again. X springboard corkscrew dives out on Sho. TI does a border city stretch on Douki. Douki spits mist in TI's eyes, low blows him and pins him to win.

Thoughts: It was the juniors version of an HoT match here. X kind of worked as the defacto face since all four guys are heels. It would have been fine if they just let them go do their thing but we had to have tons of shenanigans as usual that added nothing to this. X had a really good night here and did all of his big moves. 

Douki talks on the mic after. He says his team won every single match in the tournament. He says he's the Junior champ and half of the Junior tag champs. He says he's the best champ in junior heavyweight wrestling.

KT says as long as he is champ, he will bring wrestling to a new world. He says we will see just that.

Overall thoughts: The undercard was a waste of time like usual. UE/War Dogs was okay enough. The BOSJ Tag League Final was the junior version of a House of Torture match with lots of shenanigans that brought it down. Yota/Tanahashi was fun and I was okay with Goto/Takeshita. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as it was above average.

WOW Women of Wrestling 11/1/2025 Season 6, Episode 8

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/10/wow-women-of-wrestling-10252025-season.html 

Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/11/wow-women-of-wrestling-1182025-season-6.html 

Dave McLane and Nigel Zane are our hosts

We have a new intro with rapping and it's a downgrade.

We see clips from last week. 

Paola Mayfield and Abilene Maverick talk. Ab complains about The Classmaster getting a title shot next week. She says she doesn't get why she wants to do nerdy things when they are in Las Vegas. Ab says she doesn't care about that. She says she wants Dave to pay attention to see who really deserves a title match.

Paola Mayfield vs Santana Garrett

SG thesz presses her and hits mounted shots. PM stalls outside. They lock up. PM bends her backwards. SG monkey flips her and tries to pin her. They both bridge. SG armdrags her and is dropkicked into the buckles. PM running boots her in the corner. 

PM sits on her back and pulls her hair. PM slaps her around. SG jawbreakers her then boots her out of the corner. SG hits lariats then handspring back elbows her. PM ddt's her for 2. SG headflips into a forearm on her for 2. 

SG superkicks her. Ab trips up SG then PM does a bad swinging neckbreaker on SG. PM pins SG.

Thoughts: It was a pretty ugly match as expected with PM's offense not looking good.

Coach Campanelli does a video. She says she's not Daisy Lane's coach anymore but is a coach. She says they are on the same page for the first time. She talks about benching her. She says she does know that Coach knows best. She says she benched Pep Reilly (her last gimmick). She says you can change your name or team but if you step in the ring with her, you have to remember Coach Tip #1 - Coach always ends up on top. 

Coach Campanelli and Top Tier talk before the next match. She says she wants to welcome her opponents to training camp as she will make them run all over the place. Coach says she is glad they are friends but that doesn't help you out in the real world and doesn't make you a team. Coach says they are all great individual wrestlers and that makes them the best team. She says they will take on singles matches and she will fight Daisy Lane. Krush says Coach will rip Daisy limb from limb like she did to her doll. Glitter says Fury will learn friendship doesn't help you win titles. Coach tells Daisy to bring her best but says Coach knows best. 

Coach Campanelli vs Daisy Lane

Lane ducks CC's attacks and hurricanrana's her. Lane corner splashes her and Krush helps CC avoid a bronco buster. CC footpresses Lane down and butt drops her back. CC knees her in the gut.

Lane kicks away Top Tier then bronco busters CC. CC russian legsweeps her for 2. Chainsaw lariats Top Tier outside. Fury comes in the ring and helps Lane hit a flipping unprettier on CC, right in front of the ref. Lne then pins her.

Thoughts: Things went downhill at the finish here. Fury got involved right in front of the ref and he did nothing about it then counted the pin. That was bogus and hurt this.

Top Tier attacks after but Chainsaw fights them off single-handedly.

Daisy Lane's crew does a promo after. Lane says Top Tier tried to knock them down again and again and called them freaks. She says they ripped apart her doll. She says they may knock you down but what matters is that you get back up and keep fighting. Lane says if they keep beating down on the people she cares about they won't have much of a team left.

Tormenta talks to Dave McLane in the ring. Dave says they are happy she is back. Tor says the pain isn't easy. She said she climbed her way up and became the champ. She said she made it but got injured. She says she couldn't let her people down. She said she went through rehab and she's here for all of us. She says she will keep defending even if it costs her blood sweat and tears. 

Penelope Pink does a promo. She says Holly Swag stuck her nose into her business. She says if she thinks the beating she got in the cage match was bad, this will be the worst night of her life. She says they say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. She says after what happens tonight, Holly will stay away from her for good.

Next week has Tormenta vs The Classmaster, thought it's not clear if it's a title match or not. 

Holly Swag vs Penelope Pink

Swag is out here alone while Pink has Lana Star with her. Pink piefaces her. Swag takes her down and pounds on her. Swag hits her outside and clubs on her. Pink chops her. They chop each other outside. Pink is swept on the apron. Swag trips her and misses a kick. Pink knees her in the face. 

Swag rolls her up for 1 .Pink trips her and bangs Swag's head off of her knee. Pink chops her in the corner. Pink then slaps her. Swag chops her in the corner. Pink forearms her. Pink sits on Swag's throat on the ropes. Pink kicks the rope into Swag. Pink is supposed to miss a cartwheel elbow drop but still hits it. Swag running knees her for 2.

Pink gori special's Swag into the buckles. Pink's throat is pulled over the top rope. Swag tries to slide out but is caught in the ring skirt and pounded on. Pink back rakes Swag. Swag's head is banged off the table. Pink's head is banged off the apron. Pink hits a nasty suplex from the apron to the floor on Swag.

Pink tries pin attempts but can't put her down. Swag backstabbers her. Holly hits slaps and backhands on her. She drops her with a superkick. Lana distracts Holly. Pink knees Swag. Swag is supposed to do some kind of full nelson swinging drop but Pink just swings down and is pinned.

Thoughts: The suplex off the apron here was wild with Swag really snapping onto the floor. They botched the finish with Pink just being spun to the mat basically. The match got a decent bit of time and I guess they played up some of the hatred a little but not quite enough for me. It was about average. I was surprised we got this yet alone a clean finish since this is their first meeting after the cage match.

Miami's Sweet Heat come own and beat up on Swag after. Jessie Jones and Big Rig Betty come out and fight with MSH to close the show.

Overall thoughts: It was your usual average WOW for the most part. There were a lot of botches here and 2 botched finishes. They did do a good job of continuing the Swag/Fab Four and Daisy Lane/Top Tier feuds though and setting up things for future episodes. I would give this a 5 out of 10 total.

Thoughts: It was interesting with both teams fighting amongst themselves. They did a good push in pushing those stories but naturally, that did bring down some of the match quality some.

KT and Okada stare down. KT wants Okada to raise his hand after but he won't. Don Callis then raises their hands after.

Willow Nightingale and Harley Cameron do a promo. Willow says they have the ability to keep on smiling. Willow says they know who they are up against in Mone and Athena on Wednesday. She asks if Mone can live with them beating her. Harley says you can take the babe's out of the wrath but you can't take the wrath out of the babe's.

Mone throws Olym into Kris on commentary. Kris and Mone argue. Olym throws Mone in. Mone la mistica's her into a crossface and Olym taps out.

Thoughts: It was kind of an audition for Olym here as she got to show off her full moveset. Mone didn't get a ton in but won as expected. The match was average. I guess Olym looked alright but what you saw here is really all she has. She can do her moves clean but there's not a lot of logic to them and I wouldn't call her a great wrestler. She does have a good look though.

The Young Bucks are interviewed and are asked what it will take to get them back on track. They don't know what to say. Don Callis comes in and says he knows what to say. He said he negotiated for a million dollar tag match at Full Gear. He asks them to team with Josh Alexander to face Omega and Jungle Express.

Meg takes a double superkick. Meg double germans her opponents together. MS chest kicks NN down and slams her. Meg running sitout powerbombs NN and pins her. MS does the reverse choke on Alize.

Thoughts: I didn't like this. Alize and Nixon are debuting here and got beaten for no real reason. This was a lose-lose situation though as Meg and Shafir shouldn't have lost either.

Renee talks about the women's Blood and Guts match. She says it'll be a 6v6 match now with Thekla/Skye/Hart/Bayne/Shafir/Mone vs Hayter/Queen/Willow/Harley/Toni/Kris. 

Thoughts: The teams were put together in a loose manner to begin with and this is even worse. I'm concerned about how many girls end up getting injured in that match.

Komander, Mark Briscoe & Roderick Strong vs. La Faccion Ingobernable (Dralistico, Sammy Guevara & The Beast Mortos)

RS and SG go at it. RS wristlocks him. SG backflips out of it and armdrags him. RS chops him. Kom slaps SG. SG flips over Kom and corkscrew dropkicks him. SG suplexes Kom.

Thoughts: We've seen variations of this a million times and you know what the deal is - fast paced action, people coming in and out and various dives. It was entertaining but was pretty similar to other trios matches we've seen lately.

Eddie Kingston and Hook talk in the back after Dynamite. Hook is asked what happened. hook says if you are caught you are caught and we live to fight another day. Eddie then shoo's the camera man away.

MXM TV come out. Mdden is dressed up like a woman here and eventually, it is revealed that MXM are dressed up like Johnny and Taya. Mansoor does a casting call/open challenge and asks who they will face tonight.

Thoughts: It a was a shorter one. MXM TV did their usual half-serious shtick here and were kind of beaten like jobbers. I gotta give Tony credit for making The Gang a 5-man unit. These guys are never healthy and hopefully having 5 people around can keep them active.

Band sits up top. MD gets on his shoulders. Band initially blocks the hurricanrana but MD hits it and Band rolls through into a pin attempt. Band does a reverse GTS on MD then hits a 21plex for the win.

Thoughts: They went all out and did way too much here as expected. There wasn't that much selling and it was just people doing cool flippy moves. The more it went on, the less I liked it.

Overall thoughts: It was your usual Collision where the top stars weren't around and we had a somewhat random but workrate focused card. It was fine but not a ton happened here that will really affect things going forward. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 total. 

WWE Saturday Night's Main Event XLI 11/1/2025

WWE Saturday Night's Main Event XLI 11/1/2025

 

The last SNME is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/07/wwe-saturday-nights-main-event-xl.html

The next SNME is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/12/wwe-saturday-nights-main-event-xlii.html 

This ran against AEW Collision. 

Note - Unlike past SNME's, because this is on Peacock, there aren't commercials during matches. 

We are in Salt Lake City, Utah. 

We see various wrestlers arrive. Michael Cole and Wade Barrett are on commentary.

Drew misses a shot with the title and they collide in mid-air with crossbodies. Cody ddt's him onto the title. Cody hits a cross rhodes and wins.

Thoughts: I was really surprised Cody won here but I have a feeling Drew getting ddt'd onto the title may play into things going forward. The match was an okay match but nothing too special. I don't feel like Cody was supposed to run into the ref but I do think the knee injury is a work. 

Nick Aldis asks Tiffany Stratton is she's ready. Tiff says she is. She says she's the champ, wants to defend tonight and is ready for this fight.

Thoughts: As always, the match wasn't that good. Jade's a basic wrestler and has no great logic to her matches. She does the same thing mostly every time out. I don't like her winning the title and certainly am not looking forward to seeing any of her matches. Tiff's reign wasn't great as she was face for most of it and she is much better suited as a heel.

Penta grabs the hammer in the ring. He swings it at Dom but nails  Rusev instead. Penta is sent shoulder first into the buckles. Dom frogsplashes Rusev and pins him to win.

Thoughts: I was glad to see Dom win here. He's super over and on a good run and you just don't mess with that. Dom did a House of Torture move here by ringing the bell when it shouldn't have been rung which cost Rusev the match. The match was fine but not much more. 

Jimmy Uso helps Jey Uso warm up in the back. 

John Cena does a video talking about who he wants to face in his last match. He says he wants whoever is willing to step up and seize the same opportunity he was given on his first night.

Thoughts: This wasn't good at all. It was slow. They did little but various punches and they messed up a neckbreaker. The two just had no chemistry at all together and it was almost embarrassing at times. These two couldn't have looked much more athletic if they tried.

Overall thoughts: It was a much better presentation than other recent SNME's as there were no commercials interrupting things. There were also no strict time limits around said breaks, so the matches got to play out in full. However, the wrestling wasn't that good here. Drew/Cody was average. Tiff/Jade wasn't good. The three way was maybe the best match of the night. The main was embarrassing at times and made both guys look bad. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 as the in-ring work brought this one down. I can't see myself ever watching this again.

Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/11/wwe-superstars-3212014.html

Thoughts: Dolph put on a good show here. He really bumped around and tried hard to make Fan look good. Fan looked alright here and they got Summer Rae briefly involved. It was acceptable.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches here with various recaps. Neither match was great and both could have been a little better. ADR/Sin Cara was a bit disappointing and Fandango/Dolph was the better match here. I wouldn't recommend this one.

Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/11/wwe-main-event-1162025.html

Thoughts: It was a shorter bout and it had a lot of action. No one did anything too wild here and it was fine for what it was. The Profits got the win as expected as they are much higher on the food chain around here.

Alpha Academy (Otis and Akira Tozawa) vs OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price)

No reaction is not the phrase for what OTM got here. It was like two janitors came out.

Thoughts: It was a good match as expected here. Alpha Academy could do this stuff in their sleep. The heels lost as expected here and looked fine as foes for the faces. I gotta wonder when Otis and Akira are going to make it back into action on TV as Otis' talents are being wasted on this show.

Overall thoughts: It was your usual Main Event with 2 new matches and a bunch of recaps and videos. The 2 new matches were both fine and the Alpha Academy match was the better bout. There was nothing you need to see here but there was nothing wrong with this and it wasn't a bad way to spend 15 minutes.
