Hiroshi Tanahashi is one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time and the man known as The Ace of NJPW. In this episode, we look back at Hiroshi Tanahashi's legendary career — from his early struggles, rise as the face of New Japan Pro-Wrestling, iconic rivalries, classic matches, championships, and lasting legacy in wrestling history.This career retrospective explores how Tanahashi saved NJPW, defined an era, and inspired a generation of wrestlers worldwide.Topics covered:Hiroshi Tanahashi's early careerBecoming The Ace of NJPWRivalries with Okada, Nakamura, and moreIWGP Heavyweight Championship reignsTanahashi's legacy in modern wrestling

New Japan Pro-Wrestling closed the book on a defining era at the Tokyo Dome with Wrestle Kingdom 20, a show built around transition rather than nostalgia. Hiroshi Tanahashi's retirement match marked the end of a 25-year in-ring career and served as a clear dividing line for the company moving forward, while the rest of the card focused on consolidation and direction through major title matches and contender-setting bouts. Wrestle Kingdom once again functioned as NJPW's annual truth serum — clarifying priorities, tightening the championship picture, and setting expectations for the post-Tanahashi era. Elsewhere, AEW wrapped up 2025 with Worlds End drawing an estimated 140,000 buys, pushing the company's annual PPV total near 1.25 million worldwide. MJF reclaimed the AEW World Championship, restored the "Triple B," and immediately introduced volatility to the title scene with challengers lining up on television and a potential independent title defense looming at Limitless Wrestling. Willow Nightingale made history on New Year's Smash by becoming the first woman to hold two AEW championships simultaneously, while Tony Khan confirmed the return of AEW Grand Slam Mexico in 2026 and reiterated plans to expand dual-contract partnerships with CMLL talent. WWE entered the new year in the midst of its own structural shift. Trick Williams officially joined the SmackDown roster, Giulia regained the Women's United States Championship, and Matt Cardona was confirmed as an active SmackDown competitor. The WWE PPV and PLE archive began its transition to Netflix in the United States as Raw prepares to celebrate its one-year Netflix anniversary with a Stranger Things–themed episode. Injury updates for Dominik Mysterio and Sheamus, combined with The Usos capturing the World Tag Team Championships, further highlighted a roster recalibration heading into 2026. Tonight's episode breaks down the fallout from Wrestle Kingdom 20, what Tanahashi's retirement means for New Japan's future, and how AEW and WWE are repositioning themselves at the start of a new year. No overstatement, no revisionist framing — just a grounded look at a week that quietly reset the industry's direction. Wrestling Tonight: Episode 159

Hiroshi Tanahashi, one of the most important figures in New Japan Pro Wrestling history - perhaps second only to its founder - has wrestled his last match.  The Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer offers some insight on that, as well as the 20th Wrestle Kingdom event as a whole. Also, find out why you never want Vince McMahon or other WWE officials to be in charge of YOUR web security, and feel free to join us in reading into some interesting tour scheduling for the lead singer of Fozzy... It's been almost one full year since WWE Raw debuted on Netflix in the US, and all WWE content moved to the streaming service internationally.  It feels like forever ago, but this week, Mike McGuire takes a look back at some of that year, including the premiere episode. As the anniversary comes up, WWE has a big show planned, but is there more to read in a certain star's social media comments?  Plus, more call-ups from NXT are expected, and a Canadian Legend is hanging up his boots! Next week, McGuire on Wrestling makes its official premiere on AM 1150 out of Kelowna, BC!  For more about our shows, visit celebratewrestling.com  

Jonathan Hood and Justin LaBar preview the 1st Monday Night RAW of 2026. They also cover the arrival and departure of talent on Smackdown as well as the retirement match of Hiroshi Tanahashi at New Japan Pro Wrestling's Wrestle Kingdom 20.

The beginning of the new year is the endpoint of a career at the same time. It's not the endpoint of a regular career, but the endpoint of Hiroshi Tanahashi's career that shaped japanese pro wrestling over the past 26 years and helped change the balance of power in the business. So it's no exaggeration to say that fans witnessed the closing of the book of one of the most important careers not just in New Japan Pro Wrestling, but in modern professional wrestling as a whole. Besides the Tanahashi festivities and his tremendous final match against longtime rival Kazuchika Okada, STRIGGA & Dylan review the full card, talk about what worked, what didn't, and how New Japan presented its biggest show of the year. Above all though, the Eastern Lariat reflects on Tanahashi's legacy as the Ace, what his farewell meant in the context of the event, and where NJPW goes from here without the man who carried the company on his back and broke his own body doing so.

For the firs time in a long time STRIGGA & Dylan invest a lot of time into DRAGONGATE and analyze the current stable landscape of the promotion guiding you through the different camps and what their aspirations and goals are. In doing so, they also discuss the most recent Gate of Destiny and King of Gate events. From there, they take it to New Japan Pro Wrestling in November and on their road to the Tokyo Dome. This episode was taped before Tanahashi's opponent was announces, so part of this speculation is redundant – it's fun nonetheless! Finally, the Eastern Lariat reviews DDT's Ultimate Party from November 3rd – a very long, yet fun show.

This week 3 Beer Zach and JCB sit down and discuss the happenings in the squared circle. The 1 count is WWE featuring a recap of Saturday Night's Main Event. Jade Cargill beats down Tiffany Stratton. CM Punk returns to the top of the hill. Cody Rhodes continues to toe the line between good and evil. Ilja Dragnov with another entertaining US title open challenge. Logan Paul returns to confront CM Punk; could he be the next member of the Vision? Dominik and Rey Mysterio with an intriguing promo on RAW. ;The 2 count is AEW.
