🎶 It’s the most wonderful tiiime of the year! 🎶


Hello friends, it’s that time of year once again. WWE is bringing us another WrestleMania, arguably the biggest event in pro wrestling, and as has become the norm everyone’s getting in on it! The week surrounding WrestleMania is loaded with events from numerous pro wrestling companies giving so many sure-to-be amazing matches!

I’ll be setting up discussion threads and posting highlights for at least a couple of these shows but given how many there are, please feel free to use this thread as an all purpose discussion thread (should you not want to make any individual threads yourselves!)


Below is a non-exhaustive list of wrestling events over the coming period (television not included). I will try to highlight most of the bigger shows, but should I leave anything out do feel free to add it in the comments!

    I was slowly adding the shows happening this week to my calendar and gave up somewhere around Thursday evening, there’s too much to watch!

    (Not something that happened during the show, but related)

    Cody, a few times over the years, talked about how Dusty had a watch, a rolex. He said in his eulogy that Dusty had promised he would give Cody that watch when he won the championship. Dusty had ended up selling it for cash to pay for Cody’s acting lessons, and Cody never found out until after Dusty had passed.

    Levesque, Khan and Prichard gifted Cody the same model of watch this weekend.

    It amazes me each year how many shows there are. I caught TJPW’s show last year and it was a delight.

      Great Value lasagna is okay if you’re in a rush to make a turd. The GV Southwestern chicken & pasta is where it’s at.

      Seriously, that shit is the bomb.

        I love how its basically become tradition for Japanese wrestlers who go to America, the men all hit up the fast food joints, the women all raid the grocery stores and conbini they can find (at least 5-6 posted photo’s and videos lmao)

    Me, spends 3-4 days watching way too damned much wrestling.

    Also me right now with a few mins of downtime: “Guess I should watch an old show or something, got time to kill…”
