    LUCHA UNDERGROUND : Return of the Temple

    I said before when you started posting these on Clique that I was really excited, not just to see you back in the fold but to tackle Lucha Underground, who I think had a really unique and edgy formula. I will try and read every show to give an overall picture (wish me luck) but apologies if I...

    Thank you! I know that I’ve left a bit of a gap which may be to my detriment in terms of readership but I’m glad to be back into the swing of things and have a renewed sense of vigour. Really want to try and balance the show quality with the aesthetic but must admit, getting into the whole GFX...

    STARDOM: The Maidenverse

    I've never seen a STARDOM project before, so that definitely caught my attention. The re definitely has been more exposure on the product over the years and I know that the IGWP Women's title is more of the prime title for NJPW and a guest in STARDOM but the inclusion of Mercedes leads me to...

    Ring of Honor General Discussion Thread

    I'm all for ROH actually becoming its own entity again rather than feeling like an afterthought on Dark and Elevation (sans a select few). However, the fact it's potentially at Universal makes me feel a little less excited - there's a stark difference even between the Dark events held inside and...

    What is his dream? To chop Jun Akiyama in the pre-show?

    AEW Full Gear 2022: November 19th, 2022

    Nothing makes me want to part ways with my money for a PPV more than two men repeating the same move for 10 minutes.

    Overdrive 2022 - Friday, November 18, 2022 - Live from Louisville, KY and on Impact Plus

    I wouldn't mind this, although if this was the route then I don't think Masha should have to lose to Jordynne twice to get there as this would make Grace the one for Mickie to beat. I guess they could go down the route of having Masha beat Jordynne at Overdrive and Mickie challenging her - this...

    Impact Wrestling November 17, 2022 - Sami Callihan vs Eric Young in a Death Machine's Double Jeopardy Match

    I've really been enjoying Yuya Uemura, I think he's someone who could really benefit Impact if given the right momentum. Also pleasantly surprised to see Everett, I always thought he was quite underrated when he was in the Helms Dynasty. Nice to see the tag division slowly coming back together...

    NWA Hard Times 3 - Live on PPV November 12, 2022

    I think upholding old-school traditions and values is one of the things I do like about NWA. ROH was similar and I always enjoy it when a product has these small details that can be used to push a storyline or integrated into a match.

    NWA Hard Times 3 - Live on PPV November 12, 2022

    What's even worse is that NWA benefitted from the ROH closure - having OGK, Flip Gordon, The Briscoes, Rhett Titus, Draper (who you mentioned) making appearances and while I appreciate that they can't control whether they decided to sign with AEW or whatever, it's like they choose to focus on...

    NWA Hard Times 3 - Live on PPV November 12, 2022

    Cardona feels like a unsigned spectacle, but rather than trying to keep him around by giving arguably their biggest star the belt (and rehashing whatever plans they initially had before his injury), it seems like they’re willing to give that up because Tyrus’ segment on whatever channel got a...

    Impact thread for November 10, 2022 - Joe Hendry gets a DM Title shot!! Also Jordynne/Gisele, Trey/Speedball, Mickie/Chelsea, more

    I didn't even realise Gut Check was still a thing until that tag team match. I guess it's remained in name for the scouting process as opposed to the X Factor segments that we used to get (praise be).

    Impact thread for November 10, 2022 - Joe Hendry gets a DM Title shot!! Also Jordynne/Gisele, Trey/Speedball, Mickie/Chelsea, more

    Thanks for this! I can appreciate that Impact will often give chances to indie talent or capitalise off of those who have had a bit of camera time on Dark but still very much being squashed. I think BTI showcasing lesser known names is also helping - Jason Hotch is a prime example of someone I...

    Impact thread for November 10, 2022 - Joe Hendry gets a DM Title shot!! Also Jordynne/Gisele, Trey/Speedball, Mickie/Chelsea, more

    I believe the story is that Chelsea still has dates with NWA and elsewhere that she said she wants to fulfil first, but it indicated that she wouldn't be free until late Q1 next year. Obviously, I could be completely wrong though. I'm hoping Bailey beats Trey. At this point, I feel like Trey...

    AEW Dark *SPOILERS* taped 11/4/22

    You would think with so many trios matches that they would be able to establish some credible contenders to the Trios and/or World Six Man titles. Interested to see O'Shay Edwards, albeit this is DARK and he's unsigned talent, so this is only going to go one way. Is anyone on board the...
