The best/worst weekend for being a wrestling fan in 2025 is coming our way, as between the two big North American companies, they look to monopolize every waking hour this weekend with some sort of Premium content.

Behind "The Matriarch", the proud Cree Warrior that comes to the ring in traditional influenced gear and rocks to the ring to Halluci Nation's "Electric Pow Wow" is a loving mother who has endured the challenges of growing up in Canada during a journey of reconciliation.  That is a challenge shared by millions, but would only be exacerbated later in her life, as she and her family would suffer a level of tragedy that few may ever understand.
