Evening Daily News Update: December 21, 2025 – Winter Solstice Edition
By Kat Bourne on 21 December 2025
Happy Sunday evening to you all. It’s the shortest day and longest night of the year, Short Girl Appreciation Day, and Ray Romano’s birthday. There’s something for all of us to celebrate.
The Blog of Doom team have written some great stuff, and you should take a few minutes to read it and interact with it. Garth has pushed out a new edition of the Fan-Cam Files, looking at a 1987 show featuring such highlights as Jim Powers vs Shadow #2 and Paul Roma vs Shadow #1. Maffew continued his journey through PRIDE FC with FC 5. If you’d like to read something away from the confines of the Blog of Doom, over on Substack I tried to channel myself in 1995 to figure out my ballot for the 1995 PWI Achievement Awards.
Headlines! We have headlines! Here are a few of the stories running around the wrestling world:
Matt Hardy Challenges Walter White and Gus Fring
Matt, I don’t know how to tell you this, but they’re not going to put up much of a fight.
WCW Starrcade 2000 Added to WCW YouTube Channel
If you’re up for Scott Steiner vs Sid Vicious and a twelve-minute Harris Brothers match, this is the show for you.
If Starrcade isn’t your thing, perhaps the Muppet Family Christmas is for you. The various Jim Henson characters from across the Muppets, Sesame Street, and the Fraggles all come together to spread some cheer.
That’s your Sunday night news. Conor and Garth will be at the news desk tomorrow. I’ll be along as usual shortly after Raw ends, which should be pretty easy since it is a taped show this week. We have Rhea Ripley vs Asuka, Roxanne Perez vs Bayley and Je’Von Evans vs Rayo Americano on deck. See you then!
