IWA Copa Mundial Grand Final Elimination Match- Manu vs Johnny Blaze vs Javier Bernal vs August Artois

The winner of this gets an IWA PR World Title shot.

They pair off in the corners. Javi corner faceicks Manu then they double clothesline each other. AA slingshot germans Blaze. AA tries to make friends with Manu and swings at him. Manu hits punches and chops on him. AA goes up and over him then claymore kicks him. AA is thrown out.

Javi boots Blaze out of the corner. Javi springboard triangle lariats MAnu on the apron. Javi half nelson suplexes AA. Jav drops Blaze into a knee to the face for 2.  Javi and Manu fight outside then Manu is sent in. Blaze grabs Javi as he tries to get in. Manu kicks the ropes in Javi's face and pop up powerbombs him. Manu pins Javi. Javier Bernal is eliminated.

Blaze powerslams AA and knee drops him. Blaze pins AA. August Artois is eliminated.

Manu and Blaze are the final two. Manu shoves Blaze and Blaze shoves him back. They argue. Savio Vega comes in the ring and tries to make peace between them. Vega tries to get blaze to leave the match and let Manu win. Fernando Tonos comes in. He says the Board of Directors approved this match and says the rules won't change. Tonos says there must be a winner. 

Vega and Tonos leave the ring and the match continues. The ref talks to Vega outside and tries to eject him. Manu misses a shot on Blaze and takes a spinebuster for 2. Manu boots Blaze out of the corner and then dropkicks him. Blaze's head is banged off the buckles. Manu flying corner forearms him twice. Manu flying lariats him for 2. 

Manu stomps Blaze's back and camel clutches him. Blaze fights out and Manu clubs Blaze's back. Blaze goes up and over and flying knees him. Blaze slingblades him twice. Blaze punches Manu then flying knees him. 

Blaze misses an armdrag and Manu pop up powerbombs him for two 2 counts. Manu hits shots on him and Blaze jawbreakers him. Blaze powerslams him then knee drops him. Blaze then pins him!

Thoughts: It wasn't bad. I really expected Manu to win this one and didn't think Blaze had a shot at all since he loses so frequently here but he won. It was acceptable enough but they weren't going to go too crazy here since there were no fans. Blaze always works hard and tries so it's nice to see them throw him a bone and it's just nice to see someone different win.

Blaze is given the cup after for winning.

Pedro Portillo III does a promo outside. He says people think some things are true but they are lie. He says Mr. Iguana thinks he's better than others because he's from AAA. Pedro says he isn't better than him. He says he has something Iguana doesn't. He says Iguana has been all around the world. He says he's the champ and Iguana isn't though. He says Iguana will see who the best wrestler in PR is at Summer Attitude. He says they have an open season in PR to hunt iguana's.

Mr. Iguana does a promo. He says he's had many opportunities and took them. He says he's been to many parts of the world. He says he came to Pedro. He says iguana don't hun, they are passive. He says they turn green and know how to capitalize on opportunities. He says Pedro can show all of PR. That he is the international wrestler he claims to be. He asks if Pedro wants to see what lucha libre is all about. 

Savio Vega goes up to Johnny Blaze in the back. He calls him "Johnny Cotto". Vega tells him to give him the cup. He says Blaze didn't earn it. Vega says he told him the cup belongs to Manu. He says Blaze lost his trust. Vega says Blaze disrespected him. Vega says he will take the cup with him and says he will have to work hard and be nice and pretty to earn his trust. Blaze asks what he has to do to earn his trust? Vega says he has a pebble in his shoe called Super Atomo. He says if Blaze wants to earn his trust, take Super Atomo's mask and title and he'll have a dream come true in wrestling. 

We see La Brava Escobar cut a promo on Persia Pierce again. 

Persia Pierce does a promo. She says they have a long history together and now Escobar wants something she came here to get. She says she accepts her challenge and will see her on 8/8 at Summer Attitude.

La Brava Escobar dos a promo. She says she guesses PP accepted the challenge. She says PP is right and says they have a lot of history. She says they have had street fights and ladder matches. She says they have bled together and cried together. She says they will continue that history at Summer Attitude. She says they will see if she has changed as a woman as Escobar says she has changed a lot. She says she will keep chasing the title until she wins it.

Cesar Aldea vs Barbie Boy

They lock up. CA wristlocks him and BB hammerlocks him. BB arm throws him then CA side headlock takeovers him. BB headscissors him. CA Samoan drops him for 2. BB's head is banged off the buckles and CA chokes him. CA sliding lariats him for 2.

CA side headlocks him. BB hits elbows to the gut and is thrown down backwards. CA tries to pin him with a foot on the chest. CA legdrops him for 2. BB cradles him for 2. CA facekicks him down. CA chokes him on the ropes. CA waistlock takedowns him and BB armdrags him. 

CA armdrags him back in to an armlock. CA dropkicks him for 2. CA slams him. CA misses a top rope splash. BB hits chops  and back body drops him. BB punches him in the butt and face. BB cutters him. El Wizard comes down and distracts the ref. CA hits BB in the face with a chain and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a shorter one and that was for the better. BB's limited and not that great and without a crowd to work with, this didn't have a chance. It was a match and not much more.

We cut to the back. Johnny Blaze is beating up Super Atomo next to a door. He then takes the mask off of him and throws it down.

I think we then get a video with Ricky Banderas talking. Ricky Banderas says the glory days for Savio will be erased by him and Shane. He says when they win the title back, Vega will have a heart attack.

We then a video with Savio Vega talking to close the show. Vega says he will break the leg of Tonos' mystery man if its who he thinks it is. He says they wiped the floor with Ricky (We see Ricky Banderas knocked out on the floor) and it doesn't stop there. We then see a video on Shane the Glamour Boy with him knocked out at home with blood on him while clips of a Savio and Manu promo play on his TV.

Overall thoughts: This was an empty arena show. It's a smaller company and I'm sure they only did this out of necessity, but it's better than not getting any show at all. What we got was acceptable and they tried to fill up their time as best as they could. The four-way wasn't bad and had a surprise winner in Johnny Blaze. Aldea/Barbie Boy wasn't that good though. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 as it was acceptable for the situation.

Niche throws his chain in his face and superkicks him. Niche hits a top rope corkscrew moonsault for the win.

Thoughts: It got close to 20 minutes which was nice. Kal had a bit of sloppy night but I did like it. It definitely felt a bit above the usual match from PR quality wise and it was nice to see Niche face someone who could fly a bit too. 

A guy in a dress shirt (maybe the promoter?) talks to Niche in the back. He says he's taking things slowly and doing things the legal way. They argue. Niche wants to handle things in the street instead of legally. He says he's not afraid of BJ or Anthony Roberts. Niche tells the guy not to worry about him and says he solves things and finds ways.

We see clips from the last show. It looks like there was a BJ vs Niche singles match that got turned into a tag match that BJ lost. Mr. Big then come out and chokeslammed BJ.

Street Fight - Anthony Robert vs Macho Navarro

We join this in progress. AR has a piece of a board slammed on him outside. Macho then hits him with the board. AR boots him then punches him. Macho clubs him on the floor. Macho walks him up the blechers and bangs his head off a rail in the bleachers. 

AR bangs Macho's head off a rial and tries to throw him off the bleachers. Macho is hanging from about 10 feet up or so but gets back on the bleachers. AR's head is then banged off a rail. Macho then holds a WWE title up and hits AR with it. Macho then hits him with a box.

I think Macho hits AR with a drink. Macho is slammed on the bleachers then rolled down them as we cut ahead a bit. They fight in the bleachers and AR is busted open. AR begs off. El Hombre del Destino comes out and shoves Macho into the post. Destino and AR stomp Macho on the floor.

We go to break and return. AR lariats the ref. AR puts skewer sticks in the ref's head and pounds them in. AR pours tacks in the ring. AR is knocked off the 2nd rope and goes into the tacks. Modo Bestia comes out, throws powder in Macho's face and knocks him off the top rope. AR chokeslam flapjacks Macho but the ref is down and can't count the pin.

AR does a chokeslam flapjack on Macho on chairs. Another ref named Angel Medina comes in and AR pins Macho. 

Thoughts: It got a lot of time. Both guys really went all out here with bumps through wooden boards, dives off bleacher rails, chairs, blood, ref bumps and tacks. It was a little long but I liked it. This was a main event quality match and it was good. This was a well done hardcore bout and felt like something from ECW. Macho is nuts and there is no bump he won't take. AR hit a very unusual chokeslam move here where he lifted Macho by the throat then dropped him on his chest. 

We see more of the opening video. We are told BJ has 24 hours to return the NPW Title and the police have been called. Destino and his buddies get mad about being accused of doing this. They say the ref doesn't know who the real champ is. Niche then talks to maybe the promoter. The promoter says Destino brought BJ and not him. He says things won't stay like this. Niche talks about how he can fight in groups and we see the clip of the promoter talking to BJ again. We then see Niche pinning Aaron Robert in the tag match and Mr. Big fighting it out with BJ and Aaron after. We then see Mr. Big chokeslam Aaron again. 

Overall thoughts: It was a nice first show from NPW. We got two main event quality matches. Niche/Kalisto wasn't perfect but it was nice to see Niche face someone else who could fly like him for a change. The main was good. Aaron Robert and Macho Navarro had a good hardcore war with them taking big bumps and bleeding. I'd kind of recommend checking the main out. I'd give this a 6 out of 10 and I thought it was a good show overall.

Virgil does a promo. He says it's an honor to fight him and he respects him, but he wants the belt as much as Bret wants to keep it.

Nailz vs. Ken Johnson

Nailz immediately chokes Ken then throws him backwards. Ken is sent hard into the buckles and Nailz kicks him in the ribs. Nailz foot chokes him then does a regular choke.

Nailz does a leapfrog and lariats Ken. Vince pitches the WWF Survivor Series Hotline and says you could receive a phone call from Nailz. Nailz chokes Ken more. Nailz then does a rear naked choke/chinlock and submits him.

Kam hits a superkick and a headbutt. Kam double throat thrusts him and splashes his back. Kam tries to pin Steve's back then rolls him over and wins.

Thoughts: It was the usual Kamala squash with him acting like a savage as usual and sticking to the strikes with little wrestling.

He says everyone gets a shot and he will take on all challengers. He says Martel is a great wrestler.

Vince and Perfect close the show. Next week has Bret vs Virgil in a WWF Title match and they talk about tonight's Saturday Night's Main Event. 

Overall thoughts: We got a rare star vs star match here with Bulldog facing Repo Man. The Headshrinkers got another squash win. We got another video on Bam Bam. Marty Jannetty returned to action against Mike Sharpe and we saw more of Doink The Clown. They also hyped up tonight's SNME and Survivor Series. As usual, there was nothing must see on this one but at least it wasn't all pointless squashes.

Thoughts: I didn't like this one match. Iino played to the crowd a bunch and Wolf did some basic heel stuff. If you were hoping for flying or big power moves, this didn't really have it. It was an average bout.

Alejandro, Daiki Odashima & Dragon Bane vs. Team 2000X (Jun Masaoka, Kai Fujimura & YO-HEY)

Jun takes a double dropkick. Ale and Bane miss slingshot plancha's outside. Jun corner dropkicks Dai. Kun running lariats Dai for 2. Kai does an odd electric chair/samoan drop hybrid move on Dai and pins him.

Thoughts: Like at the last show, this one got a lot of time. It didn't really need it. What we got was acceptable but not quite as exciting as it should have been and I'd blame it mostly on the length. Kai's finisher is interesting.

The heels throw the ref out after. Kai chokes Dai with  cord. Ale tries to help out and gets beaten up too. The heels then talk on the mic after.

Thoughts: It was alright. Nothing too crazy but it was mostly safe and it had an okay flow to it before it ended. I don't like Chen's spot where he stands on his opponent on the top rope though.

Thoughts: It was an okay bout here. YI sold his knee and stuck to lariats and splashes. KK worked the knee and did lots of shining wizards. I was fine with this one.

They grab each other's hair after and KK face shoves him.

Overall thoughts: The opener was nothing special and the second match wasn't any different. Naito's match was a waste. Fujita's match didn't get enough time. I didn't like Iino/Wolf. The juniors trios match was acceptable but went long. Shane/Chen was fine. The main went to a draw and was an okay bout with them selling and trying to tell the story of Kaito working the knee. I'd give this a 4 out of 10 as most of this show wasn't that good and it was below average overall. 

WWF Superstars of Wrestling 11/7/1992

WWF Superstars of Wrestling 11/7/1992

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/wwf-superstars-of-wrestling-10311992.html

We are in Saskatoon.

Mr. Perfect and Vince McMahon are our hosts. Vince talks the recent election. Perfect says he wasn't happy about the results but is happy about Money Inc winning the tag titles last week.

The Headshrinkers (Fatu & Samu) vs Brian Costello & Joey Maggs

The Headshrinkers had debuted on Primetime like 2 months ago and haven't been mentioned at all on Superstars. The Head's threaten their opponents with their spears then do their hand sign.

The Head's attack the jobbers to start. Samu rolling ddt's Joey then kicks him. Samu superkicks Brian. The Headshrinkers do an inset promo. Afa says they feel no pain and will give you pain.

Thoughts: It was a good squash here. The Heads looked wild and vicious and they beat up Bill pretty good here.

Bill is beaten up more and thrown out after.

WWF Event Center

Mean Gene talks about Saturday Night's Main Event being next week. He shills tonight's Lowell and Boston Garden shows.

Razor Ramon does a promo on Macho Man. He says he's sick and tired of hearing about The Ultimate Maniacs. He says a knee pad won't save him from Razor. He says he will finish The Ultimate Maniacs and will start with Macho. 

Macho Man does a promo. He says Razor won't make it to Survivor Series so he shouldn't even think of it. He says Razor wears the gold but says it's not the gold of the WWF Title. He says he has fool's gold and he's the biggest fool he met in his entire life. He says he's inviting him to get this straightened out in one night. He says Razor's half of what he used to be. He says he will beat him down flat.

We get another Bam Bam Bigelow video. He says what is 6'4, 425lbs of burning fire? He says it's Bam Bam Bigelow, that's what. 

Virgil vs. Jim Peterson

They push each other. Virg side headlocks him. Jim top wristlocks him. Virg hammerlocks him. Jim shoulders him over then is tripped. Virg legdrops and kneedrops Jim's shoulder.

Doink the Clown is in the stands. Jim grabs the arm and is thrown off. Virg 2nd rope diving lariats him. Virg russian legsweeps him and wins.

Thoughts: Virg showed a little more wrestling ability than usual and didn't look that bad here. It was nice to see Virg get some resistance here.

WWF Update

Lord Alfred Hayes hosts the update this week. He talks about the mirror incident last week with Jannetty, Michaels and Sherri.

Mr. Perfect and Vince McMahon talk. Vince says we will see a Bret Hart music video and Perfect complains that Flair didn't get one. We then see the video which has clips of Bret's career and Stu Hart with kids in The Dungeon.

Damien Demento vs. Steve May

This is Damien Demento's Superstars debut. He got no real hype or anything. He's wearing shoulder/chest guards with black feathers and spikes.

Vince says Flair is suffering an ear problem but Perfect denies it. DD hits headbutts and bangs May's head off the buckle. DD hits a flying shoulderblock for 2. DD then cranks on May's head. Damian does an inset promo. He says he's a creation of your mind and your torment then he laughs.

DD legdrops May. DD slams him. DD lariats May. DD neckbreakers May. DD knee drops May and wins.

Thoughts: It as a short one and not particularly impressive. DD mostly did all strikes here.

We get an ad for WWF Saturday Night's Main Event next Saturday.

The Big Boss Man is interviewed in the ring. He says he's the system in the WWF. He says he read Nailz's file and psychological report. He says it's true Nailz beat him up but he didn't break him as you can't break the law. We see the nightstick on the pole and Boss says the first one to grab it gets to use it. He climbs up the pole. He says Nailz better use the stick if he gets it because he will if he gets it first. He says he will leave him in the ring with no chance for pardon or parole. He says he will beat him within an inch of his life and he can count on it.

Survivor Series Report

Mean Gene talks Survivor Series which is on 11/25/1992. The 8-man tag is now The Nasty Boys and The Natural Disasters vs The Beverly Brothers and Money Inc. We are told The Bushwhackers stepped aside for The Nasty's.

The Natural Disasters do a promo. Ty says it'll be an interesting Survivor Series. He says they will annihilate their opponents with The Nasty's at their side. Quake says they aren't in for a fight of survival but for a fight of their lives.

We go to Paul Bearer's workshop. Paul says Taker is working hard on the coffin. He says it's a special coffin that isn't air tight. He says it's made so that it decays quick and so that the vermin can have their own feast on Kamala's rotten flesh. 

Kim Chee and Harvey Wippleman do a promo. Harv says Paul and Taker have another thing coming if they think Kamala is afraid of the coffin. Harv says to make the coffin comfortable as Taker is going in it.

The Ultimate Maniacs do a promo. Macho says we are 2 weeks ago. Warrior says they have a chemical combustion that forms a bond forever and says they are totally out of control. Macho says Warrior's the wall that they backed themselves into. He asks if Flair and Razor see a way to escape and says the wall is made of solid steel (pointing at Warrior's back). Macho says they know how to survive and will survive at Survivor Series.

WWF World Tag Team Title Match - Money Inc. (Irwin R. Schyster & Ted DiBiase) (c) vs. High Energy (Koko B. Ware & Owen Hart)

IRS says the people will find out that you can't cheat on your taxes and get away with it.

Ted armdrags Owen three times straight. Ted slams Owen. Ted is lariated and IRS gets hiptossed. Owen slams Ted. Money Inc go out to stall.

Owen trips IRS into a hammerlock. Koko 2nd rope double axe handles IRS' arm. Koko throws him over by the arm then legdrops him. Koko shoulders him over.
Ted chokes Koko on the ropes. Ted double axe handles Koko off the top then stomps Koko. Koko flying lariats him. Owen hits punches on Ted then lariats him and IRS. Owen atomic drops IRS then back body drops Ted.

Owen hits punches on Ted. Owen bends over and takes a neckbreaker. Ted then pins him.

Thoughts: Well, this was a waste. This ended really fast and there wasn't much build to the finish. Ted armdraggging Owen three times in a row to start this made Owen look stupid. I have no idea what specifically High Energy did over other teams to get this shot. 

WWF Event Center

Gene Okerlund talks about tonight's Boston Garden show.

The Natural Disasters do a promo on Money Inc. Ty says Money Inc will do anything to get the belts. He says they wanted them, but they will show bad they want those belts. Quake says a lot of weird things happened when they lost the titles with The Headshrinkers distracting them. Quake says that's history though. He says Money Inc will feel the wrath of The ND's and they won't be able to walk away this time.

The Big Boss Man does a promo. He says things with him and Nailz went on too long. He says the only way to settle it is in the cage. He says Nailz knows this environment well. He says climbing over the top of the cage to win is too easy, he says he won't walk out the door and the only way to win is leaving him a blood pulp laying then walking out the door.

Vince and Perfect talk about next week's show. Marty Jannetty returns to action and The Headshrinkers will wrestle. The Natural Disasters will do an interview and we will see The Repo Man vs The British Bulldog.

The Repo Man does a promo. He says it makes him sick to see Bulldog with the IC Title as it's his belt. He says he won't hide from him and will get in his face and win the title.

The British Bulldog says Repo has been sneaking around the WWF and repossessing things. He says he will repossess Repo Man next week. 

Overall thoughts: We got a star vs star match this week which was nice, even if it was disappointing. We saw the debut of Damien Demento as well and tons of hype for Survivor Series. This show was a little better than usual but nothing must see.

IWA Puerto Rico Impacto Total 7/26/2026

IWA Puerto Rico Impacto Total 7/26/2026

There was no show last week. The show from 2 weeks ago is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/07/iwa-puerto-rico-impacto-total-7122026.html

The next live event is IWA Summer Attitude on 8/8/2026. It has:

El Dragon Nihan vs A former IWA World champ 

---

We see clips of Persia Pierce holding the IWA Women's Title. Labrava Escobar interrupts on a video feed. She says she has pursued the title for a longer time than her. She says Pierce is only in IWA as they saw her wrestling Escobar. She says she will return to IWA and challenges her to a title match at Summer Attitude.

This is in an empty arena. I think we are joining this in progress. Jose stalls outside. JB hits punches on him outside and throws him in. JB shoulders him over. Jose tries a leapfrog but JB gets his knees up on him. JB rolls him up for 2. JB running boots him and superkicks him on the apron.

JB goes for a german, Jose grabs the ref and low blows JB. Jose grabs his boot to use on JB. Pupe Jackson comes out, grabs the boots and hits Jose with it. JB pins Jose.

Thoughts: It would have been a little better with a crowd but it was fine. Jose heeled it up, JB made his usual comeback and they furthered the Jose/Pupe program here. 

Savio Vega goes up to Super Atomo. Vega says Atomo needs to take off his mask and change his name. He says he will give him a new name. He says he shoul be called "The Dwarf". Vega tries to take the mask off. Atomo says he was authorized to wear this by Tonos and the original Atomo. He says he won't take the mask off for anyone. Vega says he will take the mask off one way or the other. Vega says he doesn't care what the others say. He says he's the top executive of IWA. He says he has 5 days to take the mask off and change his name. He says it's his way or Atomo is out on the street.

Barbie Boy is on the phone. He says he's Pablo from IWA and says he wanted to see if the person on the phone could help him. He says this person is friends with Pimpinella Escarlata. He says maybe AAA wrestlers are coming in and they have a shot at the World Tag Titles. He says he trusts Pimpi's word and says he knows this person is the right person. He says this person can't tell anyone as it's a big a surprise. The person agrees to team with Barbie Boy. He says he's sending the plane ticket now. He then celebrates.

Thoughts: It was average. Jose interfering wasn't too shocking. It could have used another big spot or two. I think this was August's debut so him getting a win is good

Savio Vega talks to El Dragon Nihan. He says he wants Nihan to finish him off and doesn't want Super Atomo to wrestle here anymore. He says to crush his soul. He tells him to forget about The Cup and says to have no mercy on him. He tells him to finish him.

Jose Navarro does a promo with a horse in a barn. He says Pupe Jackson is shameless and says he will finish him off at Summer Attitude. He calls him a piece of trash. he says he wants to make him suffer and calls him an insect. He says at Summer Attitude, he should put his wife in a pen (and calls her a cow).

JB double throat thrusts him and slams him. JB misses a 2nd rope legdrop. Ice hits punches and lariats. Ice atomic drops him and euros him. Ice uranage's him. JB powerslams him. JB knee drops him and pins him.

Thoughts: Blaze picked up a rare win here. It was acceptable enough but nothing too memorable. They didn't do anything real wild here.

Pedro Portillo III does a promo. He says he put out an open challenge for his title. He asks which wrestler will be thrown at him. He says there is no worthy wrestler who has the guts to face him. The video feed then cuts out and Mr. Iguana jumps on the video. He says La Yesca just found out that the IWA IC champ has an open challenge for his title.  He says Pedro is a cheater and he accepts his challenge. He says he's coming for the IC Title and says Pedro never wrestled anyone like him. 

Pedro then says the bait has been cast and says he's superior to Iguana. He says he will welcome him here and Iguana will fall. The says the challenge is accepted for Summer Attitude. 

Pupe Jackson does a promo. He says Jose Navarro betrayed him and threw away a 10 year team. He says every act has a consequence and he disrespected his wife. He says he broke into his ranch and gave him the beating of his life. He says they will have a barbed wire match at Summer Attitude and he will make him pay. He says he will bathe him in his blood and wrap him in the barbed wire. He says he brought out the monster and says let's see if he has the guts to face him. He says he will have no escape at summer Attitude.

Super Atomo vs El Dragon Nihan

Atomo ducks lock up's. He hits leg kicks. Drag throws him off the waistlock. Drag misses a corner charge and takes shots in the corner. Nihan clubs his back and chokes him. Nihan back elbows him. 

Nihan does a nerve hold. Atomo hits kicks and punches. Savio Vega trips Atomo. Nihan headbutts him down and Vega takes cheap shots on Atomo. Nihan foot chokes him then drops him with a shot. 

Nihan slams Atomo. Nihan facekicks Atomo over. Nihan goes for the pin but Vega tells him no. He wants him to pound on him more. Nihan does. Atomo comes off the 2nd rope and Nihan chokeslams him. Nihan tries to unmask him.

Nihan lifts the mask up a bit. The ref tries to stop Nihan. Nihan shoves then headbutts the ref.

Thoughts: I would assume Atomo won via DQ here due to Nihan headbutting the ref. This went as promised with Nihan trying to take the mask of Atomo and him beating down Atomo as ordered by Vega. It didn't go too long but what we got made sense.

Fernando Tonos then comes into the ring. Nihan then headbutts Tonos and knocks him out. More refs come in. Vegan and Nihan pound on Atomo. Nihan powerbombs Atomo. Vega then hits Atomo with his bat.

We gets clips of a Mesiah promo on Savio Vega and Manu.

Savio Vega and Manu do a promo. Vega says he has an example of how Puerto Ricans allow themselves to be crushed. He says Ricky Banderas and Shane stole the IWA Title from Manu because that's all they know how to do. He says the fans are junkies and morons for cheering someone against Manu, who has helped keep IWA afloat. He complains about Shane the Glamour Boy's referee work as he says he allowed Ricky to cheat and elbow dropped Manu. Vega says if Ricky has any honor, he should hand the title back over. Vega says he would feel terrible if he wont he way Ricky did. Vega says Manu is training 24/7 for Summer Attitude when he will beat up Ricky Banderas. Vega says he's coming for revenge. Manu says Ricky can say whatever he wants, but he knows Manu had him beaten. Manu says Shane won't hide behind a ref shirt and asks what he will do when Manu and Vega take back the IWA Title? Vega says they aren't here to play and will destroy the two of them.  

Shane the Glamour Boy and Ricky Banderas do a promo. Shane says they celebrated Ricky's 30 years in the business and he won the title. Ricky says he and Shane run the world together. Ricky says Vega and Manu better get ready as they will put an end to them whether they like it or not. 

Fernando Tonos is on the phone. He says he has something important to say on the person on the phone. He offers someone a chance to return to IWA. He says he thinks that person can help solve a problem with El Dragon Nihan. He asks if he can count on him to help. The person on the phone agrees. He tells the person not to say anything about this and tell no one. He tells him multiple times not to tell anyone and says he will make history again. 

Savio Vega then says it's his way or the hit the streets.

Overall thoughts: The matches were in an empty arena on this one, so there weren't any crowd reactions. That did affect the matches. Navarro/Bernal was fine. Artois/Pupe was average. Ice/Blaze was acceptable. Atomo/Nihan made sense but it had a DQ finish. We got a lot of build for IWA Summer Attitude and we have at least 2 mystery wrestlers coming in for it. They didn't have a great situation here as they had to tape this in front of an empty arena, but they made the best of it and it was better than not getting a show or any new matches at all. I'd give it a 5 out of 10 as it was average to acceptable for the situation. I wouldn't recommend this one though.

Reality of Wrestling 9/28/2026 PLATINUM Episode 40

Reality of Wrestling 9/28/2026 PLATINUM Episode 40

Note - The last few episodes were episodes that only had content from Summer of Champions. I had seen all of that already. I'll review them at some point.

Semsei vs Nasir Dey

They lock up and Sem waistlock takedowns him. Dey wristlocks him. Sem rolls out, kips up and armdrags him. Sem blocks an upkick. Dey trips him and Sem dropkicks him. Sem walks the top rope and diving armdrags him. 

Dey pulls Sem's throat down over the top and kicks him in the face. Dey jumping neckbreakers him for 2. Dey stands on his neck and chokes him over the 2nd rope. Dey kicks him in the body and hits elbows. 

Dey michinoku drivers Sem then twists his neck with his feet. Dey goes for pins and gets 2 counts. Dey chops him in the corner and Sem chops back. Dey sunset flips him then does a neck and double arm hold on him. 

Sem hits punches and knees him in the gut. Dey superkicks him. Sem drops him a few times and enzugiri's him from the apron. Sem top rope diving head chops him. Dey pulls Sem's headband over his eyes and enzugiri's him. Sem ducks a buzzsaw kick with his eyes covered. Sem spin kicks him with his eyes covered then scissors kicks him. Sem then pins him.

Thoughts: It was kind of interesting to see Sem pick up the win with his eyes covered. There was nothing wrong with it and the finish was the most notable thing about it. It was average.

Tiffany Nieves and Gretta arrive. Tiff says something stinks and knocks over Jazmin Allure's stuff. Monica Monroe interrupts and tells her not to bully Jazmin. Tiff tells her to watch her words and says she has Gretta with her. Monica challenges her to a tag match and Tiff calls for Booker to seemingly set this up.

Zilla Fatu comes out with an NXT jacket on. He says it feels good to be home. He says the journey has been up and down since he debuted with WWE. He says what matters is where his heart is at and that's with the ROW nation. He said he had a goal to make Booker T and his family happy. He says he came here to put the work in and says it wasn't a handout. 

He says this is the place he calls home. He says his dad still came here even when he was signed to WWE. He says when he first came here as a kid, he didn't know his dad was famous until he got in trouble at school one day. He says he's happy he gets to celebrate with the fans. 

He says when Booker asked if he could come here, he said "yes sir". He says this is where he started and says he's so happy Booker took him under his ring. He says he's not coming for Booker anymore as he salutes him. He says it hurts that his dad wasn't here with him but he's happy Booker took him under his wing. He says he doesn't know if he'd be here if it wasn't for him. He says to show Booker some love when he comes out here.

He tells the fans to buckle up because it'll be a long ride. He says he only knows how to swang and bang as it's a Fatu thang. 

Thoughts: This was Zilla's goodbye message to ROW. He did well here and it was inevitable that he'd make WWE if for nothing than his last name alone. 

TV-MA (Tiffany Nieves and Gretta) vs Monica Monroe and Jazmin Allure

Tiff and MM lock up. MM wristlocks her and Tiff flips out using the ropes. MM headflips out of a wristlock and wristlocks her. Tiff cartwheels over her, MM rolls over her back and armdrags her into an armlock.

Gretta tags in. She grabs MM by the throat. Tiff almost runs into Gretta. Tiff jawbreakers MM and Gretta boots MM over. Gretta lifts MM and giant swings her. Gretta throws Tiff from her shoulder and tries to pin her with a foot on her.

Gretta gordbusters Tiff onto MM for 2. Tiff chinlocks MM. MM boots Tiff out of the corner. MM enzugiri's Tiff. MM goes for the tag and Jaz jumps off the apron to get away from her. Jaz then mocks her. Tiff pedigree's MM. Gretta  then chokeslams MM and pins her.

Thoughts: Jaz turning on MM for no real reason was weird. They could have had them atleast hit each other on accident or something. This was neat as we had the NWA Women's champ vs the ROW Women's champ here in MM vs Tiff. Gretta did a little more here than she does in the NWA. She's green, but her size makes her stick out and what she does kind of works. It was average.

Jaz talks on the mic after. She says she didn't come here to be nice or MM's tag partner. She says she didn't come to be anyone's friend. She says she came here to become ROW Women's champ. Jaz then boots her.

Max Castellanos is given a homemade cigar from a local cigar company in the ring. Max thanks the cigar store rep. He says "I told you so". He says opportunities are everywhere and says he has a new promise tonight. He promises to be the longest, most dominant and ruthless ROW champ we have ever seen. He says it's time to smoke. 

Jay Alexander comes out and interrupts. Jay says he won't let Max say all these things about himself and not address it. He says Jay's title reign may be shorter than he thinks as he's defending against Jay tonight. Jay says the last time they fought, he took his Texas Title from him. He asks why wouldn't he do it again? Max goes to hit him, misses and takes shots. Jay knocks him out of the ring and Max crawls to the back.

AJ Francis does a promo. He says Big Luther knows his name and says he's looking as chubby as ever. AJ says Luther thought he might get his title rematch today but he says he has more pressing matters. AJ says he will be there in 2 weeks and says they will face off for the ROW Glory Title. AJ says they should up the stakes and he should prove to everyone how bad he is. AJ says they should do it in a steel cage. He says his cage match rep speaks for itself and Luther will be another victim on that list. He says he's the best big man in the business of money, money, money. He also says he has a surprise for him.

Thoughts: Luther won as expected here. It didn't get a ton of time and was average. They didn't do anything too wild here and took it easy.

Overall thoughts: All 3 matches shown here were average. Nothing was totally bad, just I didn't really love anything here that much. There's not a ton to say about this one but it was kind of cool to see TV-MA and it was cool to see the ROW Women's champ vs the NWA Women's champ in tag action. I'd give it a 4 out of 10 as it wasn't super exciting and I'd say it was a little below average.
