A Reddit thread wondering about the box office gross for Queen of the Ring led me to do some research. After reading through the Box Office Report post and not finding the movie listed, I reached out to their Twitter account to ask about the …
Two weeks in 2025 and Gabe Kidd of New Japan Pro Wrestling has had the best match of the week in both weeks. In the opener of Sunday's Battle in the Valley Show, the New Japan Strong Openweight champion defended his title in a 30 minute draw against…

Over the span of 2024, I watched over 3800 pro wrestling matches. Those matches stretched across AEW, WWE, New Japan, TNA, ROH and many others. Of all those matches, one stood above them all in my opinion and it was the near one hour classic …
A very busy week of professional wrestling closed the way most weeks this year did. Will Ospreay racking up another couple of instant classics. On this particular week, he turned in one of the greatest single days in the sport's history with two 5* …
In mid-2024 word began to get out, almost out of nowhere, that Ricochet's contract with WWE was coming to an end. The company where he had worked for 7 years made him an offer but he was looking for a new challenge and was rumored to be headed to AE…
With no top 10 list last week due to technical difficulties, this week it will be the top 20 matches of the last two weeks. This would be from all the matches I've watched from November 24th through December 8th and would include some shows that air…
Andrew Zarian, my co-host on We're Live, Pal, and I had a conversation about the Costco Guys; Big Boom AJ, Big Justice, and The Rizzler. They were featured on the Zero Hour at AEW Full Gear. Now that it's all said and done, how did they do and how…
In a week where I didn't watch quite as much wrestling as usual, it was the rare occasion where a WWE TV match won match of the week. It was an excellent episode of Monday Night RAW with 2 matches getting 4* or more from me on an episode that was ta…
In another busy week of pro wrestling, including catching up on some shows from previous weeks, a match from the the New Japan Fighting Spirit Unleashed show on November 8th topped my personal list of matches watched over the last week. The show too…
It was a great week of wrestling, at least for what I watched. There were at least three matches that would've taken the top spot on most weeks and they came from outside the big two companies, proving that there's great wrestling all over the world…
Last night saw the one night return of the Wednesday Night War with WWE NXT airing on Wednesday for the first time since April 2021. Due to the CW Network airing coverage of the 2024 Presidential Election, the show was moved off of Tuesday night for…

On Saturday night, TNA Wrestling held its traditionally biggest show of the year, Bound for Glory, and for the first time since I started doing this column, TNA Wrestling produced what I consider last week's match of the week. It was a successful ni…
For the first time since the debut of this weekly column, New Japan Pro Wrestling has secured the top match of the week. The IWGP Title match from the October 14th King of Pro Wrestling show was head and shoulders above everything else I saw this we…
In 2019, when AEW's debut PPV, Double or Nothing, took place in Las Vegas, I assumed that AEW was going to be coming to the Bay Area often. Going back 40 years, WWE would run at the Oakland Arena where the Warriors played and then the comeback show …
At the end of WrestleDream, the camera panned to two AEW babyfaces who looked exhausted and exasperated after Jon Moxley beat Bryan Danielson to become the new AEW World Heavyweight champion. They had to stave off an attack by the Blackpool Combat C…

AEW WrestleDream wasn't all a dream. It actually happened. Though maybe next year, they retitle the show WrestlingNightmare. Some of our writers and podcasters had some thoughts after the show was over. We'll give you three possible ratings;…
In October 2019, AEW Dynamite began airing on TNT. WWE NXT secured a time slot on cable television for the first time and had a two-week head start on the upstart promotion, airing head-to-head on the same night. From that point on until April 7, 20…
Another week is in the books and in the third week of doing this column, a company other than WWE and a wrestler other than Will Ospreay had the match of the week. Going in, I'd have probably predicted the AEW International champion had a good chanc…
