Plus, Blade and Shane discuss the standout performances from NJPW, CMLL, and STARDOM, the biggest surprises of the night, what worked, what didn't, and where Forbidden Door leaves AEW as it builds toward All In.

Who will be the next generation of wrestling main event stars?

On this episode of Pro Wrestling Forever, Professor Degree and Blade Daily look ahead and ask one of the most fascinating questions in professional wrestling: Who's next?

Every era produces new headliners, but identifying them before they break through is the fun part. The hosts discuss a wide range of wrestlers they believe could be destined for bigger things, including Athena, Willow Nightingale, Bandido, Lee Moriarty, and many more from across AEW, ROH, NJPW, STARDOM, and beyond.

What separates a great wrestler from a true main event attraction? Is it in-ring ability, charisma, timing, presentation, booking, or something else entirely? And which performers are only one opportunity away from becoming major stars?

Join Professor Degree and Blade Daily for a spirited discussion about wrestling's future, rising talent, future world champions, and the wrestlers who could define the next era of professional wrestling.

Pro Wrestling Forever celebrates every era of wrestling—from the territorial days to modern wrestling—with history, nostalgia, analysis, debate, and an unwavering love for professional wrestling.
