Sort of wish they'd stay away from the lighttubes and skewers when they're also smashing beer bottles over each other's heads, but also hard to deny this is (likely) one of the wildest matches all year.

The Mexa Boy's/Aguila Roja & Puma de Oro match from IWRG's 2.13 show is probably the weakest of their three to begin the year, but if you're into crazy lucha spotfests, I'd be sure to check it out.

Will likely be the most disjointed thing that cracks the 4+ mark all year, but so many striking visuals, and the type of brute force performance from Demus that makes him so great.

An incredibly rare good Stardom bit is followed by maybe the promotion's best match of the year.

Don't love the cash in to end it, but the 2nd act after Rhea's visual pinfall was so great.

As good as everyone said it was.
Love how all the run-ins and interference function to do two things: Keep Mox afloat, and keep the action between both men as nasty and as brutal as possible.

Much, much better than the first try, great Sareee performance, too long, crowd sucked, etc.
Here's a more general thought, though:
Sareee is really, really great at one of the worst styles of wrestling in the world

DPW Victory Lap was one of the simplest, yet consistent shows of the year. A shoo-in for anyone doing yearly lists and mentioning 5-10 shows.

Real great front half gets this to the thread, and I will say Trevor's heel act has been an absolute joy from what I've seen so far.

Sareee's invader act is actually pretty great, considering it's in Stardom. If only she were a little less giving and didn't pander to the crowd so much.
