I started looking at this back in 2021 because for a few weeks things looked really bleak on Smackdown, like so little time for women's wrestling that if you blinked you missed it. Or at least it felt that way, and that led me to start tracking just how much women's wrestling on TV we … Continue reading Women’s Wrestling on TV in 2025
I believe in Hangman Page
I first saw Hangman Page wrestle in 2018. I'd gotten into Ring of Honor, and New Japan Pro Wrestling was on AXS TV here so I'd gotten fully immersed into wrestling insider and outside of WWE enough to know all of the big groups and big players. And I did not see him as one … Continue reading I believe in Hangman Page
You’re Watching Wrong

You can find her at @TheWitchMilitia on Twitter. Yes, you! The fan that logs onto your preferred social media platform, be it Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok, … Continue reading You’re Watching Wrong
AEW Dynasty Thoughts
The first AEW PPV I ever ordered was AEW Dynasty last year, and was in the building for it this year. Like most of the AEW PPVs I've watched it was a tale of two shows - there's the first two thirds where thing tend to move quickly, and then the final third where the … Continue reading AEW Dynasty Thoughts
Women’s Wrestling on TV in 2024

To catch anyone up who needs it, here's what I'm counting: Number of matches per week (I do not count intergender and mixed tag matches as women's matches, but do count then for total ring time and participation) Number of … Continue reading Women’s Wrestling on TV in 2024
Review – AEW Full Gear
The next to last AEW PPV of the Year, came on November 23rd. The vibes going into this one weren't as positive and they were in previous years, or even earlier this year. Along with some objectively bad decision making in lots of areas AEW is going through a bad momentum phase right now where … Continue reading Review – AEW Full Gear
Review – All Out
As with last year All Out is the companion/follow up show to All In. All In 2024 had some truly magical wrestling moments and angles that would be impossible to top just two weeks later, so the goal here is to just put on a good show that doesn't kill any of the momentum from … Continue reading Review – All Out
Review – AEW Forbidden Door
Forbidden Door is the fourth AEW PPV this year, and the third one of theirs that I've ordered and watched. For all of the decisions that I have roasted him over, I will again give Tony Khan props for finally putting his PPVs in a place that is easy for me to buy them and … Continue reading Review – AEW Forbidden Door
Review – AEW: Double or Nothing
This is my second foray into the world of AEW PPVs following last month's Dynasty, and the fifth anniversary of what was their first ever show. Five years in some things have changed and some have not. The company is no longer the hot new thing on the street and is now going through a … Continue reading Review – AEW: Double or Nothing
