Beginner's Guide to Weekly Wrestling

[Jeffry Mason]

Chances are pretty good that if you're on this site, you're a fan of professional wrestling. For a long time now, weekly wrestling events have been a staple of many promotions both big and small. If you're anything like me, you can't get enough wrestling. Or perhaps you're like a lot of other fans, who are more picky with their grappling, and are in search of an alternative to the WWE. Or maybe you're somewhere in the middle. Whatever group you fall into, this thread will certainly (or at least hopefully) be worth checking out. Below, I will be compiling a list of wrestling shows which run weekly and are both easily and legally accessible. For now, I will keep it pretty simple with just what shows are on what days, and how to watch them (keep in mind some of these may vary depending on what country you live in). If you know of any other shows which run on a regular, weekly basis, please feel free to comment below so that I may add them to the guide. If anyone has any additional info, or corrections, etc, please feel free to do so as well. Keep in mind this is by no means a complete list, and I basically did this off the top of my head from memory, but for now it should be a good starting point for people interested in watching any and/or all wrestling every week.

Many thanks, bro. I checked it out and this seems accurate. I thought I had read somewhere that you had to be subscribed to their pay service to watch the TV, but I am very glad to be corrected in this case

Sorry, I guess just typing AEW made me yawn and I misformatted it :dealwithit:

All jokes aside, good looking out man. Formatting has always been my weakness lol.

And yes, definitely agree. It's an amazing time to be a wrestling fan. And just think, this right here is only a list of shows that run weekly, too, as there is an incredible amount of other promotions who run amazing shows on a less frequent basis as well. There is truly something out there for everyone right now as far as wrestling is concerned.

Yeah, I considered adding that one as well, but looking at it, it seemed like their shows are old compilations or something? idk. I will have to look more into it when I have some time

 

[Jay-Ashley]

Yeah, just looked it up and it is old matches like from 2014, so my fault on that

Nah you're good man. Any attempt to add some content is good in my book
