PWR kicks off 2020 with the fiesta-ish "Mabuhay Ang Wrestling" event!

01/22/2020 12:05:58 PM

2019 has been a wonderful year for Philippine Wrestling Revolution with groundbreaking movements, and very interesting bookings that result into a series of nerve-wracking shows that are full of highlight reels, iconic stars, historical milestones, and entertaining stories. Hence, being an epitome to its #NeverMissAShow battlecry.

Philippine Wrestling Revolution may have reached its pinnacle of success when they staged its biggest show last month, but the promotion isn't finished yet as they will put the Vendetta to close out the year – and the decade that saw the sport rise once again.

A month from their last outing that has seen contendership tournaments, a stipulated matches and tons of perilous and hilarious surprises, Philippine Wrestling Revolution is set to return to the Power Mac Center Spotlight in Circuit Makati for another afternoon of world-class pro wrestling on 22 July 2018.

Plus, the continuation of the tournament to determine the #1 Contender for the PWR and AOW titles.

The Rundown Slam: PWR Wrevolution X 2018

05/22/2018 01:03:37 AM



The Philippines' premier wrestling promotion just have their fourth season ended with a bang, and that's of course the biggest show they have to offer called Wrevolution X. Ten matches are scheduled for Sunday's gig, with most of them comprised of stories that has been driving PWR for nearly an entire year.

But the question: did they deliver the goods after weeks of months of buildups and breakdowns?

The Rundown Slam: PWR Live: TRAPIK

05/01/2018 02:35:02 AM



Philippine Wrestling Revolution has reached its last stop before staging their annual spectacle later this month. And it seems that massive obstacles has hampered on its path towards Wrevolution X.

The revolution returned to one of its former houses at 500 Shaw Zentrum in Mandaluyong City. However, did the event lived up to its expectations?

The Rundown Slam: PWR Live Oktoberplex

10/15/2017 11:28:30 PM


It's been half-a-year since the last time I have seen a Philippine Wrestling Revolution show. Obviously, there are new faces and new stories that they are trying to tell everyone. And I may have felt lagged behind by so faraway distance, but at least I'm still trying to keep up with their developments that are barely told and exposed through their social media pages.

And while they have shifted from Pasig back to their home city in Makati – specifically, to the near northern portion of Circuit – it's interesting that PWR has been grasping in new and innovative matches, especially in such manner that they are now providing the Filipino counterpart to what has been the likes of WWE's Survivor Series.

Well, while we will have to wait for another month to witness PWR Vendetta and their “Ubusan Ng Lahi” tag team elimination match (plus any signs of developments prior to that), PWR Live has joined the October-fest bandwagon of event-naming rights when they staged their October edition of PWR Live show titled “Oktoberplex” (with a poster that showed Mike Madrigal and that ass of Chris Panzer).

Any by the looks of it, it is more fun than the name sake: probably more saitsfying than beer.

The Rundown Slam: PWR Wrevolution X 2017

05/07/2017 12:24:33 AM


This Sunday saw the Philippine wrestling scene is alive (and kicking, in fact!) no matter how tough the road they have taken the past year, and a show called Wrevolution X was the icing on the cake.

And we're not talking about community of fandom here. While everyone may have been talking about how shitty the WWE has been writing as of late, plus TV5 getting the rights to air SmackDown Live episodes, we have a packed house in the central area of the metropolitan which staged the banner show of Philippine Wrestling Revolution.

The Pre-take: PWR Wrevolution X

04/29/2017 05:52:18 PM


As much as I want to stray away from making predictions on other wrestling shows, that made me think otherwise; like... why not? 

Apparently, this will be the first time I hit Philippine Wrestling Revolution's premier show (simple, a counterpart to WWE's WrestleMania, or  NJPW's annual January 4 show called WrestleKingdom) since 2015, during their staging at the crowded (and hottest) Makati Sqaure in May 2015.

The Rundown Slam: PWR Path Of Gold 2017

03/07/2017 10:08:53 PM


Looks like after two shows, Philippine wrestling is at least back into their mold, to where they last left off. And it wasn't just a new chapter that unfolded recently; they looked like they're back on track and will be rolling non-stop with new faces and thrills showcased two Sundays ago at the Philippine Wrestling Revolution's latest event Path Of Gold.

Getting Back on Philippine Wresting Fandom

02/26/2017 11:55:49 AM



Before I put on my short take on PWR Bagong Yugto for The SlickMaster's Files, let me give you a brief look back on getting back to the local wrestling scene.

It was barely seventeen months ago (or rather eighteen, since it's already late February when I wrote this shit) since the last time I have seen a Manila-based wrestling show. It took place at Makati Cinema Square where around 400 people spent an evening witnessing the matches of the first PWR Wrevolution X, with Jake De Leon and Bombay Suarez slugging it out for the inaugural PWR Championship match. 

The senyorito had won it, but one of their former wrestlers wrecked the party and become the champion; and a quite unfortunate path for then-backstage developments that screwed the promotion for some time during the following year.

Upcoming: PWR Wrevolution X

Six matches: one night. And the Philippine pro wrestling is about to unfold anew—more often than those days where RJTV 29 used to have the likes of Joe Pogi to don the Pinoy Wrestling’s finest.

Lookback: PWR Vendetta

4/13/2015 1:44:03 PM


Just over a month from now, the Philippine Wrestling Revolution will celebrate a year of showmanship by its extravagant WrevolutionX this coming May 23.

Before things go beyond the limits of being a rookie though, let’s take a brief lookback... to 2015’s kickstarter named PWR Vendetta.

The Scene Around: PWR Terminus

1/2/2015 8:12:17 PM

Local professional wrestling is on the verge of rising again. In case you’re wondering what the Helen of Troy am I talking about…here’s something I spotted over a month ago at the sports arena of the Makati Cinema Square.

Yes, it’s the Philippine Wrestling Revolution’s fourth event in 2014 named Terminus.
