10 Upcoming Wrestling Matches That Will Blow Everyone Away
From America to Japan and beyond, the upcoming wrestling calendar is stacked.
While wrestling isn't exactly thriving from a business standpoint at the moment, there has never been a better time to be a fan. WWE's main roster is as inconsistent as ever, but from NXT and the US indies to Japan and the thriving British scene, viewers have never been so spoiled for choice, and the explosion of video streaming services has increased accessibility tenfold.
There's something for everybody these days, and there are plenty of great things going on around the world. In-ring standards have never been as high as they are today, and with NJPW having another banner year and WWE producing plenty of great matches despite their creative malaise, 2017 has yielded no shortage of enthralling action.
There's plenty more to come, too.
The summer wrestling schedule is only just heating up, and with a number of massive events on the horizon, the coming weeks and months promise to be full of great matches. Nothing re-energises and reinvigorates an apathetic fan quite like a knock-down bout, and while a number of these matches are still to be confirmed, each has the potential to blow us all away...
10. Men's Money In The Bank Ladder Match
WWE Money In The Bank 2017 is less than two weeks away, and with this year’s event set to feature two incarnations of the titular ladder match, it should be a chaotic affair. SmackDown’s women will likely go all out to make their first ever MITB bout a memorable one, and while it’ll probably be a good match itself, the line-up doesn’t quite compare to the men’s contest, which is absolutely stacked.
AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and Shinsuke Nakamura are among the most exciting wrestlers in the company, Dolph Ziggler can still go when motivated, and Baron Corbin should be a grounded, powerful foil for the insanity around him.
It’s a near-perfect balance of different wrestling styles, and assuming WWE don’t curb the wrestlers too much, this could be one of the best matches in the event’s history.
Corbin has been earmarked as a potential winner, but fans will accept almost any outcome if the action is up to scratch. It’s hard to imagine this group of wrestlers not excelling on June 18th, and while WWE’s recent gimmick pay-per-views haven’t met expectations, this bout promises excitement.
