What’s On This Weekend In Australian Wrestling – 14/05/25
QUEENSLAND
Pro Wrestling League is back at Kedron Wavell Services Club in Chermside this Saturday for the fallout of one of the darkest days in the history of our sport, Doomsday, PWL‘s first event with “The Devil’s Double” Jesse Daniels as the new owner:
Bobby Bishop & Mitch Ryder Run The Devil’s Gauntlet:
At The Purge: Cybernight, Bobby Bishop and Jesse Daniels went to war in an I Quit match that saw Jesse Daniels on the losing end and his time in PWL officially over. In the main event, Mitch Ryder defeated Robbie Eagles to gain control over PWL, a power that Ryder was prepared to give back to owner Mitch McCarthy. That was until Jesse Daniels crashed the end of the show, laying everyone out and signing the contract that was supposed to be signed by Mitch Ryder, effectively taking over PWL in one fell swoop.
In the aftermath, Bobby Bishop & Mitch Ryder formed an uneasy alliance with each other, an alliance that will be tested as Jesse Daniels makes them run the Devil’s Gauntlet this Saturday.
PWL Championship Match – Ricky Utomi (c) vs. Mick Moretti:
Two different eras collide, as Ricky Utomi will defend his PWL Championship against Australian wrestling veteran Mick Moretti.
Australian Openweight Championship Match – Craven (c) vs. Seth Tylors:
After shocking the world at Purge: Cybernight by winning the Australian Openweight Championship in the Purge Rumble match, Craven will make his first defense of the title against QWA‘s Seth Tylors.
PWL Championship Number One Contender’s Fatal Four Way Match – Thirteen vs. Jaxon Cross vs. Toa vs. Yeet Stevens:
Four of Queensland’s premiere heavyweights will collide, as Thirteen, Jaxon Cross, Toa and Yeet Stevens all compete for a shot at the PWL Championship
Zeke Andino vs. EC Diamond:
Two of Queensland wrestling mainstays will face off once again, with the Australian Openweight Championship in mind, as former champion EC Diamond takes on Zeke Andino, who was the runner up in the Purge Rumble.
Despite the event being shrouded in controversy and uncertainty towards the future, Doomsday still promises to be an amazing night of action.
