    Failure to Communicate October 27, 2012 Joey Ryan vs Ryan Taylor Interesting enough, it's revealed during the match by Excalibur that TNA has forbid Joey Ryan from commentating on any future PWG shows, yet he's still able to wrestle. I guess something changed in the next month or so. While...

    Scared Straight March 7, 2008 TJ Hooker vs Scorpio Sky and Ronin - DDT4 Qualifying Series The start of potentially the last night of the DDT4 Qualifying Series. Surprisingly, despite the fact that these are the two makeshift teams, it's also the most enjoyable match yet. Ronin and Scorpio...

    The Secret of Guerrilla Island June 28, 2009 Before the opening bout, Excalibur holds a ten bell salute to Mitsuharu Misawa. Johnny Goodtime vs Charles Mercury This is Goodtime's PWG debut. He was originally booked against Human Tornado, but due to Bryan Danielson's staph infection, several...

    DDT4 May 22, 2009 The Hybrid Dolphins vs The Dynasty A real solid way to start the program. The Dynasty controlled the early going due to jumping the Dolphins with a sneak attack. This was an old school sort of match up until the end with the Dynasty just controlling the pace and heeling it...

    Ha, I guess there's certain clues in some of these reviews that reveals when they were originally written. I hated Sonjay in his return to the indies in 2009. His matches in PWG and ROH were dreadful. Then again, I'm not someone who particularly liked Dutt in TNA either.

    One Hundred April 12, 2009 The Young Bucks vs The Cutlers - PWG Tag Titles If you've seen one Bucks title defense, you've practically seen them all. Brandon Cutler looks pretty good in this and both teams shows that they have some natural chemistry. It's slightly better than their DDT4 2009...

    Express Written Consent February 21, 2009 Scorpio Sky vs Zokre Despite having issues with Zokre, I was glad to see him in a singles match. It'll be a better judge of how he performs. This is Scorpio's first PWG match since his injury. As I feared, Zokre is still overly spotty. However, the...

    The High Cost of Doing Business November 11, 2007 Dino Winwood and Excalibur opens up the show. Sadly, a couple of PWG employees are in jail tonight. Thanks to a drunken fight over which is the better way to cook a turkey (boiled or deep fried) PWG ring announcer, Jon Ian, and one half...

    ¡Dia De Los Dangerous! February 24, 2008 Scorpio Sky and Ronin vs The Young Bucks - DDT4 Qualifying Series Man, early Young Bucks weren't very good. Nick Jackson's spot of hitting a 450 splash when Matt holds the opponents arm (Normally you see a double ax handle from the top rope) is one of...

    Pearl Habra January 27, 2008 The Young Bucks vs TJ Hooker - DDT4 Qualifying Series TJ Hooker are TJ Perkins and Hook Bomberry. This would be the first match in the DDT4 Qualifying Series round robin tournament. This was a pretty indyerrfic tag match with a lot of arm drags and roll-throughs...

    (Please Don't Call It) The O.C. May 6, 2006 Rocky Romero vs TJ Perkins Really good opener that showcases Rocky as the MVP of PWG that he’s become for me, but also that Perkins can be a surprise treat if he’s put with the right opponent. The main story here is that anything Rocky can do...

    Cruisin' for a Bruisin' January 7, 2006 Chris Hero vs Claudio Castagnoli After having a great debut at Zombies Shouldn't Run, Claudio finally got his ass back in PWG. The first ten minutes is nothing but friendly European wrestling. They took several breaks to shake hands, each time...

    BOLA 2012 Night 2 September 2, 2012 Sami Callihan vs TJ Perkins - Second Round This one had a nice little personal feel to it thanks to Callihan's bizarre nature. If there was one guy to get something good out of TJP, it was 'The New Whore'. So many of Sami's moves were modified to add an...

    BOLA 2012 Night 1 September 1, 2012 Joey "87%" Ryan vs TJ Perkins - First Round As always, TJP doesn't do anything for me. Joey added a little fun to the match with his antics, personality and a little comedy, but this match lacked any real flow. I dug some of the moments where TJP was...

    Threemendous III July 21, 2012 Joey Ryan vs Famous B The story of the match was built around PWG celebrating it's 9th anniversary. Joey believes he's the top guy in PWG history and thanks to his current TNA angle, he's the hottest thing going today. As Excalibur reminds Joey, he's "The...

    Roger Dorn Night June 10, 2007 Going into the show, Bryan Danielson was recently injured in his Driven match against Nigel McGuinness. The speculation was that he'd be unable to challenge for the PWG Title tonight. Davey Richards comes out to nominate himself to take Danielson's spot. Bryan...

    Based on a True Story January 13, 2007 Scorpio Sky w/Jade Chung vs Frankie Kazarian - Loser Leaves PWG Match This feud had been going on since May 2006. Major moments include Scorpio Sky cutting the hair of Kazarian, beating him in a First Blood match and help cost Kazarian a PWG Title...

    Death to All But Metal May 25, 2012 B-Boy vs Famous B Never before have I wanted to see two men team more solely because of how easy their tag team name would be. "Famous B-Boy" explodes~! This was sorta a coming out party for Famous B. It's kind of tough making someone into a star when B-Boy...

    DDT4 (2012) April 21, 2012 RockNES Monsters vs The Fighting Taylor Boys - First Round RockNES won their sole two-on-two match against the Taylors back at Steen Wolf. The first RockNES chant pretty much sums up their standing in PWG current. One fan chants "Let's go Rock-NES" and then there's...

    World's Finest March 17, 2012 Kevin Steen vs Peter Avalon This was just there. The moments with Steen killing Avalon with chops was awesome, but it went on too long. These sort of matches can be really fun (See: Johnny Goodtime vs Roderick Strong from BOLA 2009), but you need some flow if you...
