Evening Daily News Update
By Garth Holmberg on 27 August 2025
Good evening, doomers! The calendar says it’s Wednesday, which means AEW begins renting out a sh*tty Bingo Hall for the next few weeks. Casa Bonita was amusing for one week, and at least doesn’t look like a total dump, but the old ECW Arena? Yeah, Vince McMahon had his “booking for one” jokes, but now TK is certainly earning them too. We’re coming out of Forbidden Door, which means we should expect a hot one tonight! We’ve got MOX VS DANNY GARCIA! DARBY VS CLAUDIO! A Women’s Tag that will take place around 9:23 through 9:35, with picture-in-picture, of course. Maybe Wardlow will show up. Remember Wardlow? He’s back, and with the Don Callis Family!
Niz has last night’s episode of NXT Still Unnamed recapped for us, Alex has upgraded from minus-star to MID TIER matches with a feature on Hulk Hogan vs. Genichiro Tenryu, Jabroniville has more Dream Matches, including an acid trip lucha 8-man taped for WWF Shotgun, and Logan’s What the World Was Watching is bringing us the May 2nd, 1994 episode of Raw, featuring the Headshrinkers challenging the Quebecers/Not-Mounties for the Tag Straps.
Jake Hager Refuses To Shut Up
Mr. Sour Gripes complains, among other things, that TK never had interest in guys from “the fed”, despite Chris Jericho, Mox, and Cody being 3 of the Top 5 singles acts at launch.
