Wrestling Reviews and Opinions

Good Evening Everyone!

Maffew has a new review up, so why don’t you give it a read?

Now for your Evening Daily News Update courtesy of those terrific turnips over at ITR!

Charlotte Flair could be injured

Wishing her all the best if so

Sid turned down 750k from WCW to go to the WWF

Imagine paying someone THAT bad at wrestling THAT much to do it?!

Bryan Danielson would have liked to have Kenny Omega in the Continental Classic

Only so he could have put him over though right? That’s the thing we all make fun of Danielson for isn’t it? Always keen to see how behind the zeitgeist I am, it keeps me on my toes

Thanks for joining me for the Evening Daily News Update. I’ll see you all next week!

This is a dream match that many wrestling fans, myself included, wanted to see for years. It was the perfect meeting between two stylistically equal wrestlers. Both of these men were known the world over for being smaller wrestlers that compensated for their small statures with incredible technical wizardry. Both men were known for putting on some of the most unpredictable yet realistic matches in modern times. Both of them were known for having unique personalities both on-screen and off.

And yet only one of them could claim the title of “best technical wrestler in the world?” So who would be, Bryan Danielson or Zack Sabre, Jr.? Read on to find out.

For 12 days until Iron Claw is released, I present to you genuine moments in World Class Championship Wrestling history in chronological order.

Collision
Date: December 9, 2023
Location: Bell Centre, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Commentators: Kevin Kelly, Nigel McGuinness, Tony Schiavone

The road to Worlds End continues as we have more Continental Classic matches to cover. That should be enough to carry things through the week but some other things need to be set up for the pay per view aside from just one title match. There is a chance we could see something like that covered this week. Let’s get to it.

Ring Of Honor
Date: December 7, 2023
Location: Erie Insurance Arena, Erie, Pennsylvania
Commentators: Ian Riccaboni, Caprice Coleman

We’re eight days away from Final Battle and the card is finally kind of starting to come together. This week should see more of the Survival Of The Fittest participants announced, plus likely some stuff that has little to do with Ring Of Honor. I’m almost scared of the wonders this show is going to have so let’s get to it.

Kitao Dojo

Tokyo, Japan
Korakuen Hall
Attendance: 2,100

Previously In WAR…

Kitao teased his own Dojo a few years ago but nothing became of it after he teased being “done” as a wrestler but it looks like he’s taking WAR’s funding and co-operation with the idea of Kitao wrestling for them later on.

It’s smart to prepare for the future post-NJPW mega-feud and Kitao has enough cult of personality to sell out Korakuen Hall for his first show but on the other hand…it’s Kitao.

Deadline 2023
Date: December 9, 2023
Location: Total Mortgage Arena, Bridgeport, Connecticut
Commentators: Booker T., Vic Joseph

This is a show built around a theme match with the Iron Survivor Challenge. It’s something like a gauntlet Iron Man match (with a penalty box) with the winners getting a future title shot. For a bonus, we also have the NXT Title on the line as Ilja Dragunov defends against Baron Corbin. Let’s get to it.
