Top Wrestling MVPs 2020

Hi guys, How crazy has 2020 has been? With everything going on in the world, it seems as if 2021 couldn't come any sooner. However, even with all of this negativity, I think it's vital to try and find some positives.  Despite conditions making it hard for the wrestling industry, many companies have thrived during the pandemic. In particular, some wrestlers have managed to make the best out of a bad situation and continue trying to put on shows for fans whether in person or through streaming sites.  To mark the end of another year, I'm back with my annual wrestling MVP list of the wrestlers who have stood out this year. Just a quick note, most of the stuff I've watched this year is Japanese wrestling (NJPW, DDT and TJPW)! Yuka Sakazaki 2020 has been a great year for in the sense that I've had the time to fully get into Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling. For me, it's something I regret not doing earlier because it is full of some amazing wrestlers from Miu, Miyu Yamashita...

NXT UK: new breath or death of UK Indy Wrestling

Hi guys, It's been almost 24 hours (give or take) since WWE announced the NXT UK division and it's dividing UK fans and I'm pretty much one of them. WWE was the reason I got into wrestling and let me find all of these different UK promotions that I've become so invested in like Progess, ICW, Defiant, Future Shock and all so many more.  We all know that WWE is trying to takeover the world and the UK is one of there biggest markets, so why wouldn't they want to create a more established brand after the initial UK division stopped the revival of World of Sport last year (or so the rumours say)? It's easy, WWE are smart and they know how popular wrestling is here in the UK so it seems natural to snap up some of the best talent and make use of them, the same talent which put the UK promotions on the map! They have success every time they come over here to put on shows and creating an exclusive brand is the best way to keep WWE dominance even without th...

A New 205 Live?

Hi guys, The last few weeks have been monumental for the 205 Live roster and it seems as if the company are finally going to give these superstars a chance. With the announcement sof Drake Maverick (Rockstar Spud) as new 205 Live GM and Triple H taking over the brand, it feels as if we're at a turning point where people will actually see how much these wrestlers can do. After the whole debacle with losing our good ol' King Nev and the whole Enzo Amore scandal, the Cruiserweights needed a new and fresh start and I think it's working! I've always been a fan of 205 Live and I'm not alone because there's an entire fandom population who are devoted to this brand and see talent oozing out in buckets. Unfortunately, that's not been the case with WWE and many of the audiences. I mean it was bad enough that the boys were getting 'this is boring' chants or having people leave before the show (which is ironic because I only bought SD Live tickets...
