TOP THREE MOMENTS:

1. How can it not be soulbreaker 3? Muerte was one of the few characters from the beginning of this volume still around and not a character I expected to be killed like that on a weekly show. This is going to change a whole lot for multiple people and I'm real curious how it's all going to play out. Grimskull being the one to make the kill was a beautiful touch .

2. A pro, this segment is filled with intrigue and the ultimate question is who's the pro here that dealt with Thorpe's grave? We have some sort of hint with what's buried in the mud and without knowing what they found, it's all fun guesswork time hoping answers come soon rather than later.

3. Actions have consequences, these segments are making me care so much about Mighty Mighty and now you have him trying to do the right thing, freeing people from the same chains he's in. However it seems like these people like Ajax might have Stockholm syndrome or just don't see what Mighty sees then Klaus making him pay for that attempt makes waiting for his comeup harder.

BURNING QUESTIONS:

What was in the mud by Thorpe?

What made El Dragon Caido break seeing what happened to Muerte?

Where will Gemini hide?

MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:

Cookies, feels like a classic promo I would write in my Gable days but Daws crushed it better than I probably could with that. A heartfelt story that blended perfectly with Savor. I enjoyed it from beginning to end, Great stuff!

HAVE YOUR SAY:

Damn Narcissa, all over the show this week and every single segment used her very well. Especially at the end of show, two final segments that show that leadership I love, She's not just the queen but it looks like she has become the voice of the preservationists and I love it.

TOP THREE MOMENTS:

Soulbreaker III - This moment was nothing short of devastating. The loss of EMM sent shockwaves through me and will through OSW as a whole. Seeing Caido’s grief at the end, reaching out in pure anguish, was haunting. This wasn’t just about the death of a fellow luchador; there was something deeper—some unspoken pain that added layers of emotion. Plus, Drewitt’s betrayal was an unexpected twist, and the question remains: is Grimskull aware, or will he be blindsided? This'll unravel at some point.

Ceaseless - The blurred lines between dream and reality always make for compelling storytelling, and this segment delivered in spades. Gravedigger’s torment is ramping up, and the presence of Midnight in his subconscious (or perhaps something more?) adds a whole new layer to his struggles. Could this be the work of Calypso and Tombstone exacting their revenge? If so, what’s the ultimate endgame here?

Actions Have Consequences - Mighty’s attempt to free Klaus Way’s followers fell flat, and the realization that they might not even want to be freed was a gut punch. This story touches on deep psychological themes—Stockholm Syndrome, loss of identity, and the fear of the unknown. Mighty’s sacrifice for the sake of trying to do the right thing has left him with nothing. What’s his next move now that he’s been stripped of food, drink, and title?

BURNING QUESTIONS:

Now that more defined battle lines have been drawn, what new allies or enemies will emerge?

What did the Preservationists offer Sunshine to make him switch sides?

Can Dragon Caido step up and carry on EMM’s legacy?

Just how deep does Tombstone and Calypso’s revenge against Gravedigger go?

MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:

The Spoiled Brat - Mel Foley’s ability to dissect and expose the motivations of his opponents is masterful. The way he broke down Destructo’s descent from hero to bitter antagonist was both brutal and poetic.

"Your father died. Life got hard. And instead of standing tall, instead of fighting through the storm like a real man, you quit."

That line hit hardest for me. The sheer contempt in Foley’s words without making himself the villain was impressive. It resonated deeply, likely because everyone has encountered someone who acts like Destructo—someone who wallows instead of rising to the challenge. A phenomenal promo that cuts deep.
