Weekly Watchlist 067 - September 21 2025

What's new, acolytes of acrobatic absurdity?!

Well, your boy has gone and done it. I'm officially married! And what a wedding it was. I won't bore you guys with the details, but it was a weekend I won't soon forget. For better and, unfortunately, for worse. Unrelated to the wedding itself, thankfully. We lost a dear pet on the big day and we're both taking it pretty hard. One day at a time. I knew all I'd be able to manage this week would be All Out and, as I draft this intro on Thursday evening, I'm in the middle of watching Hanger and Fletcher, the match I had pencilled in for this weeks review. It's some major eleventh hour work going on at Wrestling Vault HQ.

But, I've never let that stop me before! The show must go on! So, dear reader, read on and find out just how goo this shows main event really was

Weekly Watchlist 066 - September 14 2025

What's new, diehards of dramatized dropkicks?!

This week, I bring you something I haven't done since Watchlist 004! Bring you a review of a show I was at LIVE! Well, I should correct myself from the hop here, I will not be reviewing September to Remember from top to bottom, I simply don't have the time, but I will be reviewing the opening match as someone who was there in attendance live from London, Ontario's Canada Life Place. It was a really fun show and I was so happy to be there live with my fiance. But the rest of the story is gonna be buried in this review, so if you want to find out more, read on!

What's the story, connoisseurs of comically contested confrontations?

Keeping with the trend of lighter reviews for the month of April as wedding season draws nearer and nearer, I decided to do some pandering this week, if you will. I explain more, if you read more, but I went into this weeks review unsure of what I was getting into and came away from it feeling happy I ventured out of my comfort zone.

So join me, dear reader, find out what's new in my week of wrestling.

Match of the Year Tournament - D Block - August 2025

Welcome, one and all, to the Match of the Year tournament! This week, we go over the D Block's pre-quarterfinalists, quarterfinalsits, and the semifinalist! This wraps up the D Block of matches as we move into the cooler, autumn months. Summer is behind us and we are officially in the back half of 2025! 

Let's see what this half of the year has to offer, shall we? 

The Pre-Quarterfinalists

August Pre-Quarterfinalists.

Weekly Watchlist 064 - August 31 2025

What's the story, chasers of choreographed chaos?

Time just keeps moving forward which means the reviews just keep a'comin. Sticking with my 1 match review again this week as the wedding countdown is nearing closer to two weeks than three. Hard to believe we're as close as we are. But, you guy's aren't here for that, are you? 

As I talk about later in this review, it's all I can do to keep up to date with the current product (of course referring to AEW) so reviews will more than likely just be a recap of the best match from TV the past week. Give me some time to get back in the saddle and then we'll be back to business as usual. 

So, until then, enjoy this wee's exciting offering!

Matches of the Month - August 2025

August! Where did you go?! You weren't a banner year for wrestling, but that wasn't your fault, was it? Can only watch so much wrestling when you don't feel like doing much at all, eh? For as much as I talk about August being a dry month for quality wrestling, doing a list like this really helps me see that each month has plenty of matches worth hunting down or, at the very least, remembering. But which ones from August stood out from the rest? Well, dear reader, you'll just need to read on to find out!
