NEW EPISODE OF JUST FREAKIN' WRESTLIN' TONIGHT!
Presented by Rodriguez Graphix LLC
Another week of wrestling is in the books, and Travis-T, Turtle & Apex are back TONIGHT to talk about it all!
THIS WEEK ON JFW
RESULTS & RECAPS
We're looking back at all the action from:
• Southland Championship Wrestling
• Chicago Style Wrestling
• Phoenix Pro Wrestling
THIS WEEK'S FREAKIN' CARD
Another BIG weekend of independent wrestling is coming up, and we're looking at the cards from:
• IWA Productions
• The The Superwrestlers
• Illiana Pro
• Ultimate Combat Gauntlet
• NWA Chicago
• Illinois Valley Wrestling Federation
ANGEL GARZA SAYS WRESTLING FANS WOULD SUCK AT BOOKING
Think you could book WWE better than the people actually doing it?
Angel Garza has a message for wrestling fans who think they could — you'd probably suck at it.
Does Garza have a point? Is fantasy booking a whole lot easier when you don't have to worry about injuries, contracts, egos, TV ratings and long-term plans?
Or do fans sometimes see the obvious booking decisions that wrestling companies somehow miss?
GARZA'S RIGHT or FANS COULD DO BETTER?
DUSTIN RHODES, A "LIKE" & MUSTAFA ALI'S RESPONSE
Then we've got Dustin Rhodes catching some attention after liking a post that Mustafa Ali clearly DID NOT agree with.
How much should we actually read into a wrestler hitting the "like" button?
Does liking a post mean you endorse the message behind it — or has social media reached the point where we're dissecting every single click a wrestler makes?
We're talking about what happened, Ali's reaction, and giving our thoughts TONIGHT.
We want YOUR opinions before the show!
Sound off in the comments and give us something to argue about!
Catch Travis-T, Turtle & Apex TONIGHT for indie wrestling results, upcoming match cards, wrestling news, opinions, arguments, and probably a little bit of bullshit along the way!

NEW EPISODE OF JUST FREAKIN' WRESTLIN' TONIGHT!
Presented by Apex Research
Individual retailer and educator of research based products.
Another week of wrestling is in the books, and Travis-T, Turtle & Apex are back TONIGHT to break it all down!
THIS WEEK ON JFW
RESULTS & RECAPS
We're looking back at the action from:
• New Genesis Wrestling
• The Frontline Pro Foundation
THIS WEEK'S FREAKIN' CARD
Another loaded weekend of independent wrestling is coming up:
• Phoenix Pro Wrestling
• Chicago Style Wrestling
• Backbreaker Wrestling
• AAW Pro
• Southland Championship Wrestling
CHELSEA GREEN — STRIPPED... BUT GIVEN 30 DAYS TO DEFEND?!
We've gotta talk about this one.
Chelsea Green being stripped of her championship — only to then be given 30 days to defend the same title while serving as interim champion for Rhea Ripley... who was STILL officially recognized as champion.
Wait... WHAT?!
How exactly does that work?
We're breaking down Chelsea's story, the bizarre championship situation, and trying to make sense of how you can be stripped of a title, still be allowed to defend it, and be an interim champion while another wrestler remains the recognized champion.
What do YOU make of Chelsea's story?
Does the situation make sense, or does it just create even more questions?

NEW EPISODE OF JUST FREAKIN' WRESTLIN' TONIGHT!
Presented by Rodriguez Graphix LLC
 
Another week of wrestling is in the books, and Travis-T, Turtle & Apex are back TONIGHT to break it all down!
THIS WEEK ON JFW
RESULTS & RECAPS
 
We're looking back at the action from:
• ARWPRO
• Wrestle League LLC
 
THIS WEEK'S FREAKIN' CARD
We've got another weekend of independent wrestling coming up:
• Brew City Wrestling
• C3 Ultimate Wrestling
• The Frontline Pro Foundation
• New Genesis Wrestling
• Zero1 USA
 
TONIGHT'S BIG TOPIC — THE AVERY STYLES SITUATION
We're talking about the Avery Styles situation coming out of GCW: Rude Awakening.
We know we've got opinions... but before we give ours, WE WANT TO HEAR YOURS!
What did you think about the situation?
Was it handled correctly? Was somebody in the wrong? Or is there more to the story that people need to consider?
Sound off in the comments BEFORE tonight's show! We want to see where wrestling fans stand before we break it down on JFW.
 
FATAL INFLUENCE: UNSAFE — OR THE IWC'S LATEST WITCH HUNT?
Fatal Influence has found themselves under the microscope, with wrestling fans online pointing fingers following multiple recent injuries involving talent they've shared the ring with.
But is there actually a pattern worth questioning?
Or is the IWC doing what the IWC does best — finding someone to blame?
We're laying out the timeline, looking at the incidents, and discussing whether the criticism of Fatal Influence is justified or whether the internet has already handed down a verdict without the evidence to back it up.
 
What do YOU think?
Fair criticism or an IWC witch hunt?
 
BIDDING WAR GAMES RETURNS!
It's time for the second edition of Bidding War Games, and this time we're keeping it in the family...
2ND GENERATION SUPERSTAR EDITION!
Apex and Nubby will once again put their money where their mouths are and battle it out at the auction table to build the better wrestling roster!
Who gets the steals? Who blows their budget? And who walks away with the better team?
Find out TONIGHT!
