While\npatiently waiting for the start of the G1 Climax, I spent my time watching\nother promotions that I usually don&#8217;t view on a daily basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First\nis Pro Wrestling NOAH which I frequent from time to time if they have a big\nevent going on. Their own tournament started as well the &#8220;Global Jr.\nLeague.&#8221; Cool to see veterans like Yoshinari Ogawa and Minoru Tanaka still\ngo at it! Chris Ridgeway is having a decent run over at NOAH too. The top guys\nsuch as Kaito, Sugiura, and Marufuji always deliver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another\none would be RevPro. Their latest event was headlined by members of Los\nIngobernables de Japon, RevPro: Ungovernable. Gabriel Kidd will be part of the\nNew Japan LA Dojo, personally recruited by head trainer Katsuyori Shibata\nhimself! Zack Sabre Jr. and SANADA main evented for the RevPro British\nHeavyweight title. A taste of what&#8217;s to come in their eventual G1 matchup!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Major\nLeague Wrestling (MLW) has always been a fun promotion to watch. Their weekly\nshow: Fusion is one of the best consistent wrestling shows out there in my\nopinion. Tom Lawlor is one of the best wrestlers in the American scene right\nnow who I feel does not get enough recognition. Austin Aries made his debut as\nwell and Lucha legend Dr Wagner Jr. will be coming soon. Lots of fun stuff to\nlook forward to!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To end it all, what a weekend it has been with the start of the G1 Climax! Its the first time the tournament took place in the US and all the matches delivered from the undercard till the main event!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a class='bp-suggestions-mention' href='https:\/\/prowrestlingjournal.com\/members\/hoohoowozza\/' rel='nofollow'>@hoohoowozza<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Started do\ndual reviews for the site this week which meant me doing the ROH TV round up,\nwhich you can imagine wasn\u2019t the easiest to do. I like Ring of Honor at times\nand the opener was pretty decent with Jay Briscoe mixing it up with PCO who is\njust a bumping machine! Main event between Jeff Cobb and Mark Haskins was good\ntoo, however Bully Ray is still a massive influence on the product and his tag\nmatch with Shane Taylor against Coast to Coast was just to put Bully himself\nover! This man is ruining the product, he\u2019s too long in the tooth for wrestling\nnow, in this guise anyway. Enough of Bully Ray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MLW was the\ncomplete opposite, by far the best weekly TV show in the states at the moment!\nEasy storytelling and putting wrestlers over, isn\u2019t that what weekly TV is\nsupposed to do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today saw\nthe Tokyo Joshi Pro Princess cup finals. Yuna Manase defeated AEW favourite\nYuka Sakazaki to advance to the finals where she faced Yuka\u2019s tag team partner\nMizuki who disposed of my tip Natsumi Maki to join her. This was the first\nTokyo Princess cup Final that did not include a TJPW trueborn but two\nfreelancers. Mizuki looks to be the next challenger for Shoko Nakajima\u2019s\nPrincess title at the Korakuen August show after defeating Manase to win the\noverall tournament! My review will drop tomorrow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not really anything to do with wrestling as such, however listened to Vince Russo show \u2018Truth with Consequences\u2019 podcast this week. Very interesting show as Vince interviewed Mike Williams, of \u2018Sage of Quay\u2019 podcast, a You Tube show based on the conspiracy theory that Paul McCartney of the Beatles was killed in 1966 and replaced by Billy Spears! After this two part podcast even I have to think about whether there is some actual truth to this theory. Highly recommend giving this podcast a listen, it is free on Westwood One!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">@MrImpact_blog<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This Week I watched my favourite SLAMMIVERSARY matches from ec3 vs Mike Bennett to Samoa Joe vs Scott Steiner as well as listening to two IMPACT press pass podcasts. Also watched an Amazing match from a couple years ago between AJ Styles and Adam Cole\u00a0 (BAY BAY) For the ROH world title which was just amazing, Along with watching Adam Pacitti\u2019s wrestlemania punishment live stream for Cultaholic which was very funny but felt sorry for him having to say \u201cYou love it \u201c 100,000 times. I tuned into to Twitch to Watch IMPACT plus rewind with Ethan page who watched a few Slammiversary matches and answered a few of my questions from the chat. Not forgetting all the IMPACT shows including Bash at the Brewery and Deep IMPACT which were amazing and not forgetting Slammiversary tonight which will be the best PPV of the year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">@IconicShadows<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I heavily enjoyed watching this YouTuber\nfor many years I\u2019ll link him below he\u2019s called Pulse provides all sorts of\nwrestling related content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/CMPuLs3\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/CMPuLs3<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take a look at James Darnell @cmpuls3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My stand out match of the week of which\nI\u2019ve watched myself was the NXT UK Tag Team Championship match Grizzled Young\nVeterans (Champions) against Moustache Mountain which ended in indecisively as\nImperium interfered. The brand itself NXT UK is always rather hard hitting with\na variety of different wrestling styles mixed in. The Woman\u2019s division keeps\nexpanding constantly giving you more a reason to watch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve recently heard an intriguing rumor\nthat a certain WCW legend will be returning to WWE to face The Dead Man The\nUndertaker, that wrestler is The Icon Sting. The issue is I don\u2019t think it\u2019ll\nbe a match that\u2019ll be satisfactory as it could have once been. As much as the\nmatch certainly would bring viewers (including myself as Sting and Undertaker\nare two of my favorite wrestlers) I don\u2019t think the promos will be I wouldn\u2019t\nbe surprised if they were repetitive if I\u2019m honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The speculation on who Aleister Black be\nfacing is certainly intriguing I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if it was Randy Orton,\nCesaro or Bray Wyatt possibly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If I\u2019m completely honest the only things\nthat RAW &amp; Smack Down are interesting me are the 24\/7 Championship and Bray\nWyatt segments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>@SuperMastodon It&#8217;s been an interesting week in terms of professional wrestling for me.
