Filipino Pro Wrestling Seminar

Hello everyone.

 

Very recently, Filipino Pro Wrestling conducted a wrestling seminar with Kojio Akumu in the house.

 

These stories are always feel good stories, especially with the growing popularity in Southeast Asian wrestling today.

 

This blogger met Kojio in August 2023 at a Meet And Greet at a Dexcon show in the Philippines.  This fan was amazed at how much knowledge learning from him that afternoon.

 

Thank you again Kojio for making the time and sharing wrestling knowledge with FPW.

 

Soon, Filipino Pro Wrestling will resume with their shows in Makati City once again.  Please visit the Filipino Pro Wrestling - FPW page for more info.  Thank you.      

VPW Spring Bash

Hello everyone.

 

Vietnam Pro Wrestling's next show, Spring Bash, will take place on Saturday, February 22nd.  The venue is the VAIB Studios D7 beginning at 7pm.

At last year's show on 16 March, Venomshank (Dokuga and Rensho) successfully defended their VPW Tag Team Titles by defeating The Juicy Boyz (Miles Karu and The Wonderboy) from Malaysia Pro Wrestling in an exciting match.  

 

Things have definitely changed for both teams since then.  VTX are now the VPW Tag Team Champions.  The Juicy Boyz are now the SPW Southeast Asia Tag Champions winning them in Malaysia.  They have defended the titles once, in Singapore.  However, they lost their recent match on a disqualification but still have the belts.

Moving on, soon, there will be some matches added to the show.  In the meantime, please visit the Vietnam Pro Wrestling Facebook page for more, including tickets.  Thank you.

More On Norwegian Wrestling Federation

Hello everyone!

 

The Norwegian Wrestling Federation (Norges Wrestlingforbund in Finnish), a wrestling promotion, was founded in 2001 by Erik Isaksen.  Their first show took place (according to Cagematch) in October 2001 with seven matches on the show.

 

NWF has done really well with what appears to be close to 175 shows over 24 years (seven to eight shows per year).  The promotion has four championship titles (NWF Heavyweight, NWF Tag Team, European Heavyweight and Cruiserweight).

 

From what this fan sees, the promotion's popular shows are Vendetta, Heteslag and PowerSlam.

 

Popular and well known wrestlers that wrestle in the promotion are Inferno (Rayo and Kym), The Headhunters (Adrian Storm and T-Jay), Hannibal, Robert Star and Espen Olsen.  There are definitely more but the ones mentioned have won championships at one point or another.

 

The PowerSlam show the past November drew over 650 fans, their largest ever.  Watching a little video and seeing the wrestlers that are part of the promotion, the future is more than bright for this company.

 

NWF can be seen On Twitch.  Also, under Norges Wrestlingforbund, they are on You Tube.  Their next show is on March 1st with the show, Trouble In The Tiger City.  There will be two shows that day.  This blogger will share more about the show and the wrestlers involved in the coming days and weeks.  

 

For more information, and tickets, please visit the Norges Wrestlingforbund Facebook page.  I've linked it below for everyone!  Thank you.

Norwegian Wrestling Federation

Tomorrow, this blogger will go outside the box and share a promotion that Southeast Asia and wrestling fans may very well like.

 

A few days ago, I came across a promotion called the Norwegian Wrestling Federation out of Oslo, Norway (or Norges Wrestlingforbund in Norwegian language).  The promotion is celebrating its 24th anniversary and is going stronger than ever.

 

There is one tag team in particular that I'll be sharing.  The team is called Inferno.  Kym, a wrestler from Thailand with experience of one and a half years, and Rayo Flores, a wrestler born in Argentina, are an up and coming tag team in the promotion.  Inferno has had a taste of championship success in winning the NWF Tag Team title this past November.  More on Kym, Rayo, and NWF tomorrow.

SETUP Thailand Bangkok Navigation Update #11

Hello everyone!

 

There is a disclaimer that this blogger should post in every wrestling show.

 

The disclaimer is that a wrestling show is subject to change regarding a wrestling card.  This happened with this fan last Saturday night while attending a NJPW wrestling show live and it's happening with the upcoming SETUP show this coming Saturday night.

 

Originally, the singles number one contender match for the IWA Japan World Heavyweight Championship was supposed to be between Shota and Monomoth.  However, it is now a Triple Threat "Decision" Match between Shota, Monomoth and the MYPW SEA Champion, Shivam.

 

I'm not going into the details as to why this match was changed.  In the future, maybe this fan will discuss it.  For the fans who read my blog, please check the SETUP Thailand Pro Wrestling Facebook page, You Tube or any other social media platform as to the decision.

 

In the meantime, Bangkok Navigation, as this fan knows will still be on Saturday night at The Circus Studio beginning at 6:30pm.  Have a good day everyone!

Grapplemax Amplify 6 Update #2

Two matches have been added for Grapplemax Pro Wrestling show, Amplify 6.  The show is scheduled for Saturday, January 25th at the Grapplemax Studios.  Doors open at 6:45pm with the first match beginning at 7:30pm.

 

The first match added will feature two wrestlers that are among the rising stars coming out of the NWE Pro Wrestling Academy.  Melvin will make his in ring debut against NWE Graduate Justin in a singles match.

 

The second added match will feature Ming Rui against Julian, two wrestlers who have been part of tag teams.  This match, however, will be a singles encounter.
