From the Front Row - 365 Pro Wrestling Recap - 09.01.2026

Last Friday was a wild one, with Haviko stealing the 365 title by impersonating Inferno and entering a match he wasn't supposed to be in. The Rogues, Elliot Tyler and Casey Ferreira threw away their goodwill with the fans to start down the Road of Darkness in their quest to officially hold the 365 Tag Team Championship belts – belts they stole last week! We have a 5-match card full of shenanigans to get through on this one, so let's get after it.

Another week of 365 Wrestling kicks off with the second episode of Stein Time and our host, Big Sawyer Stein, is using his show as platform for a little Wrestler's Court. Our prosecutor is none other than Thelonious Jovinius Harlequin, coming out to the ring accompanied by his two Ephialteses carrying the 5th Dimension trunk portal. Thelonious is pressing charges against the dastardly Zack Andrews for slicing up The Mittens. Zack is brought to the ring, hands bound, by the returning Princess Petunia. (For the uninitiated, Petunia is a princess in the 5th Dimension and is a sentient Mitten.) The trial doesn't last long because Zack admits his crimes with glee. The jury is the two Ephialteses, which seems kind of rigged against Andrews, and a guilty verdict is rendered very quickly. Thelonious requests Petunia to carry out the punishment but she refuses! She declares her love for Zack Andrews and frees him! Zack is now the heir to the throne of the 5th Dimension and as such he now has command of the Ephialteses, who are instructed to beat down Thelonious with haste. This is a shocking turn of events that has the crowd confused and angry.

Jae-Lynn Hill vs Becky Beech
This match whipped ass. Super fun back and forth between those two. Beech hit a big powerslam, followed by a pretty fantastic running meteroa. Hill kicks out of a three count and gets up to murderize Beech with a heavy clothesline, then battering her with a fury of mounted punches. Hill has a Bob Holly-esque dropick, which is to say a fucking beautiful dropkick. Then Hill hit a fantastic DDT and a lovely crossface that Beech powered through to get a rope break. Crowd support for Becky remains at an all-time high. 365 Nation loves Becky Beech. Beech's short-arm clotheslines hit hard and she laid Hill out with a couple. Then followed them up with a huge pump-handle slam. Match ends after Beech hit a huge X-Factor on Hill. (I should really find out if Becky has a name for her version of this move.) Big win for Becky Beech. Dash Dauntless and the 365 Women's Title feels like it's right in front of Beech now...

From the Front Row - 365 Pro Wrestling Recap - 02.01.2026

This past Friday night (January 2), the Victoria chapter of 365 Nation convened at the First Met United Hall for the dawning of a new era. An era filled with WEEKLY WRESTLING as 365 Pro Wrestling started their ambitious schedule of weekly shows in 2026. As going to 365 is one of the few things keeping me sane in an ever-crumbling world and is, quite frankly, one of my favourite things to write about, I figured a weekly recap might be useful, at least for myself and hopefully for some others. These will be quick notes with jokes, casually and quickly thrown down. I'm not a machine and can't get to every single show (I DO have a life, contrary to what it seems like sometimes), so maybe we'll have a guest recapper here and there. Anyways, this exciting new era of 365 Pro Wrestling kicked off with Holiday Hangover, a 6-match card with three title matches. Let's find out what happened!

1. Rad Dad (c) vs Haviko – 365 Global Championship
Haviko is out first. Late last year Haviko traded in all his long built-up good will with the fans and turned heel after he turned his back on fan-favourite Inferno. He's more hated as a heel than he was loved as a face – and he was reeeaalllly loved as a face. Incredible work. Rad Dad has been holding both of the big 365 belts for so long it would feel strange to have him not come out with both belts. That's a lot of gold. The two hit hard, trading back and forth. Haviko hit a fucking brutal ushigoroshi on Rad Dad that only got a two count. Haviko looked like he was going to take control with some dastardy cheating but wait! A wild Inferno appears! He thwarts Haviko's cheating. Haviko ends up on his back prone, and wham! One of the most beautiful moonsaults I've ever seen Rad Dad throw gets him the win. Rad Dad retains! We are happy.

5 Questions with Rags #89 - Rashad Tyson or "I'm tryin' to be what I'm destined to be"

June 11, 2025 by Blake Morneau in 5 Questions With Rags

When I first started interviewing wrestlers, I had the assumption that you could detect and guess someone's original wrestling inspiration(s) by simply watching them in the ring. Little movements, bits of movesets, etc., I genuinely (and incorrectly) believed this formula meant something. As this hypothesis is being disproven more and more all the time, no one has surprised me with their long-running favourite like Rashad Tyson. “My favourite wrestler I first knew I liked, and specifically thought, 'I'm gonna follow this guy's journey,' was Randy Orton. Specifically bald Legacy Randy Orton.,” Tyson says, shocking me on an idle Friday morning. (If I was drinking coffee I would have spat it out hilariously.) “The whole angle was so entertaining to me growing up. Just his stare alone was the wildest thing. I love a good bad guy. The best bad guys to me are built out of trauma and like, Randy Orton's whole story about his anger issues, 'Don't push me to the edge' and that. I don't wanna resonate with this, but I think it's kinda cool.” Randy Orton. This man, Rashad Tyson – this man I declared my new favourite wrestler on Instagram after seeing him live for literally 3 minutes because of the love I could feel pouring from every corner of the room – came up loving one of the most evil mufuckas to grace a wrestling ring?? How could this be? But if you stop to think even for a moment, it makes perfect sense. Wrestling is about reactions and connections. It's one of the few places where Horseshoe Theory actually applies. Orton connects to the lizard brains of the audience, Rashad connects to their hearts. In the end, it's really the same thing. And there aren't a lot of wrestlers in the Pacific Northwest that are making those connections with the audience like Real Talk Rashad Tyson.
