As we’re all spending more time inside, we’re back with another list of suggestions on shows and matches on YouTube to pass the time.
Last weekend, WrestleMania just about distracted us all – so here’s a bunch of freebies that have been posted onto YouTube since we last took a look…
From ROH, last year’s G1 Supercard of Honor show from Madison Square Garden has been uploaded in full (including the pre-show Honor Rumble) – that’ll be there until the end of July… ROH also uploaded 2006’s Match of the Year – the Blood Generation vs. Do Fixer trios match that set the trend for a while….
OTT’s done two live streams on YouTube over the Easter weekend, looking at Hidden Gems from the Tivoli. Night One featured Tyler Bate, Angel Cruz & B. Cool vs. Pete Dunne, Trent Seven & Tyler Bate (don’t ask…), Chris Hero vs. Ryan Smile, and Moose vs. Jordan Devlin, among others. Night Two ropes in Sammii Jayne vs. Raven Creed, Martina & The Lads From The Flats (Martin & Workie) vs. The Gymnasties from 2015 (!!!), and Will Ospreay vs. Ricochet…
Of course, WWE’s got a much deeper back catalogue, but while the Network has been made free in limited format, they’re still posting full matches on YouTube. Take a look at these:
- Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon’s epic ladder match from SummerSlam 1995
- The four-way for the women’s tag team championship from last year’s WrestleMania 35
- John Cena’s World Heavyweight title defence against Edge, Randy Orton and Shawn Michaels at Backlash 2007
- Triple H vs. Batista from WrestleMania 35 – watch your nose rings…
- Brock Lesnar ending the Undertaker’s streak at WrestleMania 30
Beyond Wrestling have been uploading matches, including some from the Discovery Gauntlet that was part of Uncharted Territory last year…
- Christian Casanova vs. Kobe Durst
- Casanova vs. Breaux Keller
- Casanova vs. Thomas Santell
- Not from the Discovery Gauntlet… Casanova vs. Leyla Hirsch
- EYFBO (now Proud n Powerful) vs. Bear Country from Americanrana 2019
- Chris Hero vs. JT Dunn in a Last Man Standing match that’s better than the other one you’re probably thinking of…
Impact’s doing the same too with old matches…
- Kazarian vs. Max Buck (Matt Jackson) from Sacrifice 2011
- Rhino vs. AJ Styles in the Elevation X match from 2007’s Destination X
Our friends at GOOD Wrestling put up last September’s Mystery Show up for free – including a death match main event…
AAW posted their 13th anniversary show – EPIC – from 2017… this one features Matt Riddle vs. Michael Elgin…
These have been up for a while, but PROGRESS have some full shows on YouTube for free if those are more your thing:
- Chapter 13 – this was the show that really opened the world’s eyes to PROGRESS, featuring Prince Devitt vs. ZSJ
- Chapter 36 – the Brixton show
- Chapter 55 – the first Alexandra Palace show
- Chapter 76 – Wembley
- …and if you want to go a lot further back, ENDVR:7 featuring a lumberjack match
EVOLVE have been putting full shows online too, trying to coax you into a Club WWN subscription. Give these a go:
- EVOLVE 125 from WrestleMania weekend last year featuring Austin Theory vs. Kyle O’Reilly
- EVOLVE 134 featuring Drew Gulak vs. KUSHIDA
- EVOLVE 141 featuring WALTER vs. Timothy Thatcher in a match we’re probably going to review soon…
