New Japan Pro-Wrestling's Sakura Genesis this year is probably one of the best PPVs so far in the world of professional wrestling. Not only did it show interesting plots heading through the year but also some betrayals as well. Personally, this is the 2nd best show New Japan has produced this year, 1st being Wrestle Kingdom 17. That being said, here are our top 5 moments from New Japan Sakura Genesis! WORDS BY LINUS SANTOS

Manila Wrestling Federation is back for this year with a bang! MWF finished their Aksyonovela TV tapings last March 5, 2023 at Fitness Playground PH in Quezon City. Honestly speaking, this has been one of the best shows/tapings that I’ve watched so far. The passion was immensely felt by the crowd and you can feel the excitement from the edge of their seats. With the Chilly Willy Cup and Jake De Leon’s 100th match happening during the show, you can be sure to see some great wrestling! If you haven’t subscribed yet to their Gank, you may do so here! That being said, here are (spoiler-free) things to expect watching MWF AKTV: Kasaysayan! WORDS BY LINUS SANTOS After the positive reception to their 3 Trading Card sets last year, Fight Sport Manila have teamed up with one of the top wrestling promotions in the Philippines, Manila Wrestling Federation for their first official trading cards called “MWF Aksyon Cards”. Translated as "Action" in English, this series features 25 personalities from the MWF Roster with 15 of them being their rookie cards! Designed by Filipino Artist The Nutcase, each card design is influenced by several Filipino imagery and symbolisms frequently seen whenever you walk the streets of Manila.
WORDS BY LINUS SANTOS Hello, fellow noob card collector!
I see you’re checking this article out on how to start your own collection of wrestling cards. To be blatantly honest, I too am just starting on collecting wrestling cards. It all started when our friends from Fight Sports Manila introduced local wrestling cards by partnering with the Nutcase by making select Filipino wrestlers’ cards. From the PWOGs (Jake De Leon and Ken Warren) to Robin Sane, these cards have paved the way as a method to support the local pro-wrestling scene. Recently, FSM has partnered with World Underground Wrestling - Philippines from their last show Invasion to create cards of both local and foreign wrestlers and were for sale during the said show. The first graded local wrestling card is actually a golden Jake De Leon card, graded by Certified Sports Guaranty or CSG, one of the top card grading companies in the world. You may see the unboxing of it here. |
