Puso Wrestling's Next Show

Hello everyone!  Apologies for not posting lately.

 

PUSO Wrestling's next show, Pusong Pinoy, will take place on Saturday, November 30th.  The venue is once again the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City beginning at 6pm.  Here is what is happening.

 

The finals for the inaugural Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship will be decided that evening.  Aaron Liwanag will take on Main Maxx in what will be a banger of a match!  Both wrestlers are undefeated since PUSO Wrestling began last summer.  Aaron Liwanag will be battling for his first championship while Main Maxx will battle for his first championship in several years.

 

In other matches signed,  Dabid Ravena and Kurt Jiminez, returning to action, will face Nigel San Jose and Fabio Makisig, returning to action.  Ravena and Jiminez are part of the revival group, MSG led by Mr. Sy along with the Pinay Vixen, Chelsea Marie.  Nigel San Jose and Fabio Makisig have teamed up before in tag team action and will prove a huge test, and revenge, against the MSG team.

 

There will also be a Pwersang Pinay Gauntlet match involving Crystal, Chelsea Marie, Joya, Super P., Patricia Ligaia, Roxxy from Wrestlefest DXB (Dubai) and a wrestler yet to be named.  Yappy will be the special guest referee for the match.

 

In a three way, Mr. Philippine Wrestling's, Jake De Leon will take on Shaheen from Wrestlefest DXB and Shigehiro Irie from Japan in a huge encounter.

 

Also, Isaiah Valencia will take on Jomar in singles action.

 

In a four way for the #1 contender for the Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship, it will be Danny Zamora vs. Joey Rosas vs. Ken Cifer vs. El Kapitunero.  The winner of this match will get a title shot at whoever is the champion.

 

Finally, there will be a tag match between Hakai Mateo and Alien Friend vs. Serafin Liwanag and Kapatid na ???.  The stipulation is this per General Manager, Sonny Go.  If Hakai Mateo and Alien Friend win the match, Serafin Liwanag and Kapatid na ??? will be barred from ringside during the Pusong Pinoy Championship Match.

A New Stable In Town (Part 2)

Hello everyone!

 

In Part One of A New Stable In Town, this blogger shared the formation of a new stable with Filipino Pro Wrestling.  That would be LegenDarius and Jason Rex.  The duo joined forces at the July FPW Astig show.  Things became official a couple of months later at the FPW Unfinished Business show following the match.

 

Fast forward one week later, another stable has been formed, this time with PUSO Wrestling.  This is what happened per sources since this blogger wasn't there to witness the action.

 

Following a grueling and banger of a match between Dabid Ravena and Danny Zamora, Mr. Sy came into the ring.  The last time pinoy wrestling fans saw Mr. Sy was at the final Manila Wrestling Federation show when he was the manager of the successful group known as Oro Plata Mata.  Ravena was part of the group at the time.

 

Mr Sy mentioned to those in attendance that "there has to be change" while attending to Ravena.  Kurt Jiminez, a wrestler on the mend with PUSO Wrestling was there as well.

 

Following the Main Event match between Chelsea Marie and Joya, it was revealed that a new stable known as MSG was formed.

 

Chelsea Marie would be joined by Dabid Ravena, Mr. Sy and Kurt Jiminez to become the latest stable.  It will be interesting to see how this group turns out.  Certainly, OPM worked out well in the previous promotion.  There's reason to believe that MSG will do just as well if not better!

PUSO Wrestling Heart-2-Heart Results

Hello everyone!  My apologies, but am late on this.

 

Here are the results from PUSO Wrestling's Heart-2-Heart show.  The event was held last Saturday, September 21st at Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City before another great crowd!

 

Chelsea Marie d. Joya and will headline Dexcon's Jam Of The Joshis.

Main Maxx d. Nigel San Jose to reach the finals of the Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship Tournament.

Aaron Liwanag d. Super P and will face Main Maxx in the finals of the Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship Tournament.

PUSO Wrestling Heart-2-Heart Update #4

Hello everyone!

 

One match has been added for PUSO Wrestling's (Philippines) Heart-2-Heart show.  The event will take place on Saturday, September 21st.  Location is the Brawl Pit Bulusan beginning at 6pm.

 

Jomar and ?????? (partner of Jomar's choosing) will take on Isaiah Valencia and Patricia Ligaia in tag team action.  

 

For those who haven't followed how this match was made, Patricia Ligaia was the winner of the Jun Capilos Battle Royal.  She won by eliminating Jomar over the top rope to win it.

 

It appeared that initially, Jomar wanted Patricia in singles competition.  However, Isaiah Valencia stepped in perhaps to face Jomar instead.  Eventually, per General Manager - Sonny Go, this will now be a tag match.  Jomar will choose a partner of his choosing against Isaiah and Patricia.

 

Also, Jake De Leon, fresh off a very successful wrestling tour of Japan, will be in action that night.

 

For more information, including tickets, please visit the PUSO Wrestling Facebook page.  Also, for sponsorship inquiries, please message PUSO Wrestling or email pusowrestling@gmail.com for more details.  Thank you.

Cross Promoting

Growing up with pro wrestling in the Territory Era in North America, there was something interesting that this blogger learned early on. 


About two years after first watching wrestling on television, this blogger first came across a wrestling magazine known as The Wrestler.  Remember everyone, back then, there was no internet! 

 

It was a shock to find out that there were actually three promotions in North America and not one!  I grew up in the National Wrestling Alliance territory and thinking it was the only one.

 

However, there were two other promotions in the American Wrestling Association (Midwest Region) and the World Wide Wrestling Federation (East Coast Region).  It would be extremely rare if a wrestler from one region back in 1968 would wrestle in another one.  The only exception I could remember early on was the WWWF's Bruno Sammartino doing a couple of shows against the NWA's Ray Stevens at the Daly City Cow Palace.

 

Things were very tight amongst the heads of the different groups back then.  Definitely, it was big business and up until the 1970s, one promotion would not "invade" another's territory.  The invasion began in 1969 when the American Wrestling Alliance invaded NWA territory with a show in the Los Angeles area (The Forum in Inglewood).  NWA was the territory back then with shows at the Olympic Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles.

 

Jumping forward a half century, in Southeast Asia, there are a few pro wrestling promotions throughout the various countries.  Unlike the days of The Territory Era in North America, pro wrestling in Southeast Asia is definitely a breath of fresh air!  The heads of the various promotions are far more receptive in a wrestler from one country visiting another.

 

This blogger has been following a recent pro wrestling tour of Japan involving Jake De Leon (PUSO Wrestling - Philippines), Shivam (SETUP - Thailand) along with Dr. Gore (SPW), Monomoth (SETUP), Chris Brookes and Masa Takanashi (SETUP, DDT Pro Wrestling, ChocoPro).  A couple of fans from abroad were able to attend the tour as well.

 

There were the Baka Gaijin and ChocoPro shows that were definitely memorable.  Then there was the legendary show at Korakuen Hall where many Japanese pro wrestling shows have taken place.  I believe the tour ends in Saitama before the wrestlers return to the respective countries.

 

Over the last few weeks, this blogger has been trying to keep up with several wrestlers.  While I was in the Philippines, Filipino Pro Wrestling's, Chino Guinto took part in a Vietnam Pro Wrestling show at the VAIB Studio.  Before this, Jake De Leon (PUSO Wrestling) and Mike Madrigal (Filipino Pro Wrestling) traveled to Malaysia for an APAC Wrestling show.  The Eurasian Dragon and a couple of other wrestlers from Ring Of Rebirth Singapore wrestled in the show as well.

Earlier in the year, Dexcon Philippines promoted a couple of shows with Zack Sabre Jr. (NJPW), Chris Brookes and Masa Takanashi (SETUP, DDT, ChocoPro) appearing. 

 

In about two weeks, September 14th, the Philippines own, Crystal, will be appearing at Middle Kingdom Wrestling's Championship Supercard show in Shanghai.  She will be taking on Yuki Kamifuku for the SPW Queen Of Asia Championship.

 

The point this blogger is making is that the cross promotion of wrestling talent in Southeast Asia is a very healthy one for pro wrestling in the region. It spurs interest, grows the industry and helps the economy.  Friendships are strengthened as well.

 

There is no question in this wrestling fan's mind that the Japan visit was a success!  From what was posted in Social Media, all of the wrestlers had a great time and were receptive positively by the fans who attended.  Definitely, there are exciting times ahead for sports entertainment in the region.  

PUSO Wrestling Heart-2Heart Update #3

Hello everyone!

 

PUSO Wrestling's next show, Heart-2-Heart, will take place on Saturday, September 21st.  The venue is the Brawl Pit Bulusan beginning at 6pm in Quezon City.

 

One match has been added to the show, and it is not just a match either.

 

Danny Zamora will be taking on Dabid Ravena in what will be in wrestling terms, "a banger!"  The rivalry between the two wrestlers has been an ongoing one.  For those of you who were at the inaugural show, Unang Tibok, here is what happened.

 

Before the Jun Capilos Jr. Battle Royal, the two appeared to be jawing at one another before the match began.  Then, at times during the match, the two were battling each other.  Eventually, both Danny and Dabid were eliminated within seconds of each other, and a couple of meters from one another.

 

However, it didn't stop there.  The two combatants continued battling each other outside the ring.  They kept brawling when leaving the Brawl Pit Bulusan.  Who knows if the two are still battling as this post is being written!

 

Anyway, for information, including tickets, please visit the PUSO Wrestling Facebook page.  Until this coming Saturday, tickets are 5% off in all categories.

 

Also, if anyone is interested in sponsoring the show, please message PUSO Wrestling or email them at pusowrestling@gmail.com for more information.  Thank you.

PUSO Wrestling Heart 2 Heart Update #2

Hello everyone!

 

PUSO Wrestling's next show, Heart-2-Heart, will take place Saturday night, September 21st.  The venue is the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City, PH. beginning at 6pm.

Heart2Heart Update

Hello everyone!

 

The Philippines' PUSO Wrestling has announced that their next show, Heart2Heart, will take place on Saturday, September 21st.  The venue is the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City beginning at 6pm.

 

One match has been announced for the show as of the last few hours.  

 

Joya will face Chelsea Marie in one of several matches of the show.  This has the makings of a great match!

 

Both wrestlers came off good performances from the inaugural show, Unang Tibok, held last month.  Joya faced a rugged opponent in Aaron Liwanag and, more than, held her own.  Chelsea Marie did likewise in the Main Event against Mr. Philippine Wrestling, Jake De Leon.

 

There is something special added to this match.  The winner of this match will headline next month's Dexcon event in an International Dream Match.  The event is called Jam Of The Joshis that will take place on Sunday, October 13th.  This blogger will share more on that in the days ahead in a separate post.

 

For more information, including tickets, please visit the PUSO Wrestling Facebook page.  From now through Saturday, August 31st, fans can save 5% when buying tickets!  Thank you.        

PUSO Wrestling's Next Show

 

PUSO Wrestling in the Philippines has announced their next show!

 

The event, Heart2Heart, will take place on Saturday, September 21 at 6pm.  The venue is the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City.  The following part is courtesy of PUSO Wrestling so will post it here...

 

PUSO Wrestling's 2nd show gives you twice the action, twice the drama, and twice the fun!

We also have two semi-final matches of the Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship Tournament—who are the last two competitors standing to make it all the way to the final round? PLUS! More exciting matches featuring your favorite Puso stars!

Last weekend's debut show was a sellout so please don't be left out!  Thank you.

A Packed House!

Before the doors opened!

It was announced yesterday that Saturday night's PUSO Wrestling show drew over 150 people at the Brawl Pit Bulusan.  By the second match of the night, every seat was filled! 

A shout out goes to everyone who encouraged fans to come out to see Unang Tibok!  Numerous people did their best to get the word out.  There were the PUSO Wrestling wresters and staff.  There was Jigo Live! promoting the show with several wrestlers.  Definitely, there were the fans who made the trek to the event.  Also, there were the sponsors who helped greatly with the show.  

One added note:  If you haven't seen Facebook over the past couple of days, Delight 37:4 has some great photos from the show!  Please check them out and from this fan, thank you!  In closing with this part, thank you to everyone who made the historic night possible!

As this is being mentioned, all of us who were there, need to continue in getting the word out on when the next show will take place.  As everyone who reads this knows, this blogger is fortunate to attend one show per year because he lives 7000+ miles away in America.  Thus, as a blogger, and a paying customer at Saturday's show, I'll be encouraging someone who wasn't at the last show to be at the next one.  The point is "not to rest on our laurels!"  

All of us, including yours truly, need to encourage current and new fans to see an exciting brand of wrestling.  As always, this is not to be pushy but to encourage fans.  

PUSO Wrestling is on the rise!  I'm not saying this because of being here for the past several weeks.  There is a positive vibe of what's happening with the promotion.  If you don't believe me, please ask someone who was at the event.

Also, a shout out to Onyang's Cafe right next door to Brawl Pit.  This fan loves quesadillas and wasn't disappointed.  The place was packed after the show.  Thank you to the staff.  The post show was fun with people talking and having a good time!  

Also, please comment with any questions, suggestions and thoughts on this blog.  You don't need to mention your name (you can be anomynous if you like).

I'm on my way to America as this is being posted.  This fan will continue to write and support PUSO Wrestling, as well as posting the numerous promotions throughout Southeast Asia.  There are a number of shows coming up.  Will be back on the computer sometime Thursday.  Please be safe everyone!

Hello Everyone!

Here are the results from PUSO Wrestling's show, Unang Tibok.  The inaugural event took place this past Saturday at the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City.  Congratulations once again to PUSO Wrestling, the staff, fans, sponsors and everyone involved who was at Brawl Pit and Onyang's Cafe, before and after, the show.  It was a memorable and huge evening for all of us who attended.  The promotion has a great future ahead!  All the best!

Thank You Everyone!

Want to thank everyone here in Metro Manila for the wonderful and memorable visit.  Each time, it turns out a little better than the last one.  This time, this blogger was here for three weeks instead of two.  It happens to be the longest away from America.

I don't take these vacations for granted, especially now in an advanced age.  There's never a guarantee that there will ever be a vacation like this again.

Next year, the planning is two countries in four weeks time.  I've talked with several people about this already.  The timeframe could be either in late July/August or perhaps earlier.  Nevertheless, the planning has already begun while still here.

As mentioned at the top, there are so many people to thank, and who made this visit special.  Getting a chance to do some running again at my favorite area at UP Diliman will always be special.  The meetups at UP, Trinoma and Ali Mall, Brawl Pit Bulusan and Onyang's Cafe were great as well.  Visiting much of Metro Manila either by foot, jeepney, MRT and Grab was a blast.  Finally, the PUSO Wrestling show the final weekend of the visit is still on one's mind.  Thank you to everyone that this blogger saw that evening.  All the best to PUSO Wrestling going forward.  The promotion has a very bright future and is on the right path!  Also, all the best to Jake De Leon, Fabio Makisig and Jomar in visiting Japan soon.

In closing, a couple of people are concerned that the flight out of Manila may be affected by the Taal volcano activity that's going on.  To my friends here, please be careful.  It may be rough breathing outside.  I've checked Philippine Airlines and the flight right now is scheduled for tomorrow night....subject to change (just like wrestling).

Please take care everyone and will chat when getting back to America. 

    

Puso Ng Isang Kampeon!

Inside Brawl Pit Bulusan before the show.

Last night's PUSO Wrestling's debut show, Unang Tibok, was one for the ages!  You had to be there to see it!  The show took place at Brawl Pit Bulusan, the mecca of pinoy wrestling.  This post may be a little long, but please enjoy! 

This blogger arrived nearly five hours before the start of the show by Grab (Philippines answer for Uber).  Being concerned about traffic in Metro Manila, it was more than worth the extra hours.

Meeting up with wrestlers, a few fans, and eating the great quesadillas at Onyang's Cafe, were the early highlights well beforehand.  The anticipation of what would be a memorable night was definitely there.  There were a lot of photo-ops, something that is very warm and popular throughout Southeast Asia. 

Leading up to the show, this fan knew that the show would go off well.  The concern was how the fans would react to what would transpire this night.  It didn't take very long once the gates opened and everyone was inside.

Receiving a Jun Capilos Jr. T-Shirt from Jelson, his son, was an emotional experience.  This blogger thought of wearing it during the Battle Royal in honor of Jelson's dad.  Instead, I wore it throughout the entire evening.  Thank you so much Jelson, and to Dax Clothiers for putting out a great product!  Also, I want to put a shoutout to The Nutcase for the shirts received.  In the two years of purchasing, the shirts are of good quality.  Thank you guys so much!

There was an experience of entering a wrestling ring, something I haven't done in 57 years as a wrestling fan.  That was emotional in which I wondered how the tears were held back.  It was an honor to step inside the squared circle that my past heroes such as Pat Patterson, Peter Maivia and Rocky Johnson entertained for many years.  It was an honor to hold a championship belt with some of my current heroes of the current PUSO Wrestling roster with Jake De Leon, Joya and Joey Rosas.  Thank you to all three wrestlers as well as Cholo, Rosh and the staff members who were the photographers of the event.

Then, there was the opening of the show and the unveiling of the Pusong Pinoy PUSO Wrestling Championship belt (thank for Rowen for the photo).  If you weren't there to see it, the pinoy wrestling fans in attendance were in awe of what they saw!  The cameras and photos were clicking!  It was definitely a sight to see.  Simple, but perfect design.  Whoever is the first to win the championship will be deserving and look really good wearing this!

The show itself, and the fan reaction was what this fan expected.....and a lot more!  There's something about Brawl Pit Bulusan that is magical.  The fans are right on top of the action.  The wrestlers and the fans feed off each other which makes for a better quality show.

The Unang Tibok show had two, first round tournament matches followed by the eight wrestler Jun Capilos Jr. Battle Royal.  Following a 15 to 20 minute intermission were two more first round tournament matches followed by the Main Event of the evening.

Since there will be streaming of the event, this blogger will leave it up to PUSO Wrestling when they would like for me to post any results.  However, in the meantime, this fan will tell you that each match was competitive and entertaining.  Viewing what was happening, no one left Brawl Pit disappointed at what they saw.  There were still over half of the people in attendance inside at least 30 minutes after the two hour plus show was completed.  I believe the other half was next door at Onyang's Cafe sharing their observations of what they saw.  In the coming days, there will be a hundred - plus stories of what transpired.  Go for it fans!  Let everyone on social media know.

In conclusion, the bar is set for future shows.  If anyone thinks Pinoy wrestling has faded into the sunset, think again!  It is very much alive and well!

Also, thank you to everyone!  PUSO Wrestling, wrestlers, staff, the numerous sponsors, all the fans, Onyang's Cafe, and yes, Grab for getting me back and forth from the hotel.  Everyone last night treated me as one of the family!  Hopefully, I wasn't a pain in the butt. 

See you guys sometime next year!  In the meantime, will continue to support, follow and write about PUSO Wrestling.  Hopefully, more will fans will follow.  Have a good day everyone!

A First!

Brawl Pit Bulusan, the Mecca Of Pinoy Wrestling.

Later on today (Saturday), a near capacity, if not capacity crowd will attend the first ever Puso Wrestling show in the Philippines.  It will take place at 6pm, Saturday August 17th at the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City.   The name of the show is Unang Tibok (English meaning First Beat).

One last time until tonight....a few tickets are still available.  Please visit the PUSO Wrestling page on how you can secure a ticket.  Only VIP tickets remain.  SVIP and GM tickets are sold out!

This inaugural wrestling show will be a first for this fan, and perhaps for a few fans attending.  Certainly, I'll always remember my first pro wrestling show in July 1970.  There was Wrestlemania 31 in March 2015 in Santa Clara, roughly 80 kilometers south of where this blogger lives.  Then there was my first Philippines show in December 2022 at the Peta Theater Center.

Honestly, this feels like my biggest show to date!  It certainly feels like July 1970 all over again!

Pinoy wrestling fans are definitely curious as to what might happen this evening.  For SVIP ticket holders, they will be allowed through the gates at 5pm. Once inside, there will be an opportunity to be inside a wrestling ring for a couple of minutes with three of their favorite wrestlers.  VIP ticket holders will be allowed in at 5:30pm and GM ticket holders at 5:45pm.  This may shock you but I've never been inside a wrestling ring!  A boxing ring?  Yes, but never wrestling.  

Prior to all this, I'll be visiting nearby Onyang Cafe for a mid afternoon lunch and drink.  The Cafe is one of my favorite places and hangouts here in the Philippines.  The cafe opens at 1pm per Google.  Please be sure to check before leaving.  I've been told the menu is bigger than ever.  If there, please check it out!

This will be a long day, and not in a bad way.  With the weather being very warm and humid, getting fluids and food down is a must!

Whatever transpires tonight, thank you to all the pinoy wrestling fans, Dexcon, WUW-Philippines, PUSO Wrestling staff and wrestlers who will be there, or even have other obligations today.  The excitement keeps this blogger going on a daily basis.  I'm, more than happy, to share everything that's been happening up to today.

In closing, this blogger has one message for everyone tonight.  The message is to enjoy the moment and the show.  There is a saying that "Rome was not built in a day!"  PUSO Wrestling has taken a large step since June when the promotion became official.  I know many of you heard this before, but please be patient with the group.  They have come a long ways in a very short time.  There have been the numerous training sessions, social media posts and television appearances of many of your favorite wrestlers.  

Don't be afraid to post photos on your favorite social media outlets.  Finally, let your friends know about the show for days to come.  Communication is important! 

All of us should be really happy with what has transpired since June.  Thank you to everyone involved in having this event happen!

Thank you everyone and we'll see you this afternoon!

Final Unang Tibok Pre Show Thoughts

Hello everyone!

The excitement has been building as PUSO Wrestling will finally debut tomorrow (Saturday) night.  The event, Unang Tibok, will take place at the Brawl Pit Bulusan (Bulusan and Calamba Streets) in Quezon City beginning at 6pm.  

Please note the following info!  For SVIP ticket holders, the gates will open at 5pm.  For VIP tickets, the gates open at 5:30pm.  For General Admission, the gates will open at 5:45pm.  My error from the last post regarding the VIP and GM tickets and time of entry.

There are less than 20 tickets remain as of last night.  Hopefully, those reading this don't feel that this fan is being pushy.  We're encouraging everyone who wants to come out to please do so.  Certainly, there are fans who may have other obligations that day.  All of us totally understand this.  To the fans who have tickets, and those who are unable to attend, but have supported from the beginning,  thank you for your support! 

In the weeks leading up to Saturday, PUSO Wrestling has done everything, and the right way, in preparing for the show.  There have been television appearances, social media posts, and everything communicative making this happen!  Also, thank you to Dexcon and WUW-Philippines for providing shows in the interim leading up to tomorrow's inaugural event.  Hopefully all the fans supporting the promotion are excited about Saturday.  Certainly, this fan is!  

Once again, here is the lineup of matches for tomorrow's show.  As always, the lineup is subject to change.

As some of you may know, PUSO Wrestling's first show, Unang Tibok is one week away on Saturday, August 17th.  The venue is the Brawl Pit Bulusan beginning at 6pm.

The General Admission and SVIP Tickets are now sold out as of yesterday.  However, a few VIP tickets remain at the 8.8% discount TODAY only!  Please see the PUSO Wrestling Facebook page for more information.  If you are going, plan on purchasing them today.  It is likely that if you wait until next week, you might be disappointed (like no tickets for the shoe left!).  Thank you on this.

Also, this blogger wants to give a shoutout to Dexcon and Solar Sports for last night's showing of the Dexcon Wrestle Storm show on their channel.  From the little I saw, the sound and picture quality was excellent.  Hopefully, those that had a chance to see it will appreciate what is happening here.

Worldwide, including America, it is difficult these days to keep pro wrestling on any channel or network.  With the WWE, both RAW and Smackdown will be leaving USA and FOX by the end of this year.  I'm not sure on this, and will check, but I believe Smackdown is going back to USA.  NXT will be staying on USA for the moment.  Both networks did well with pro wrestling in ratings despite other programing in their various time slots.  

Having Pinoy Wrestling on any kind of cable channel is a plus for the local industry, wrestlers and fans alike.  If anyone has time, please call or even email Solar Sports to let them know how much one appreciates this.  It will mean a lot.  This blogger will do likewise shortly.

Thank you to those with Dexcon and to Solar Sports for making this happen.  It will help the local wrestling industry now and the future!

I will have a couple of more PUSO Wrestling posts next week.  In the meantime, have a good weekend everyone!
