Scott Mitchell

With 2025 officially over, I want to start a thread of my choices for who truly took the independent wrestling world by storm this past year. As always, you can check out my work on @pwponderings, and my Twitter page. The results are as follows:

I'm waiting for that one account that always comments saying "oh, anything to knock Marks." I'm not a Marks hater or lover. I just want Brooklyn to get back to their winning ways. I'm not sold on much that they've done sadly. I hope Egor is our future franchise player, but aside from him... Hopefully the other four are good.

This is genuinely how I feel at this point

Nets fan through and through, but have to give massive props and congratulations to the New York Knicks. You can say the Eastern Conference is undoubtedly weaker than the West (which is very true), but the Knicks DOMINATED. They deserve this finals appearance. With that said, hopefully, we see the Nets FO/Sean Marks wake up this offseason. Make some big moves and get back to winning basketball. I can dream, right? It must be nice. Congrats, Knicks. #NetsWorld #StrongIsland

A very fun interview dropping tomorrow with one of the "sweetest" independent wrestlers on the Canadian scene. This was a very fun one, can't wait to share! Check this one out ahead of their match, which will air tomorrow night on @C4Wrestling, on @indiewrestling. Any guesses?

literally all of them look the exact same and like shit and weirdly alter good promo pics to also look like shit. stop it.

Very sad news out of Juarez... it's being reported veteran luchador from the Torreon/Gomez Palacio area Piloto Suicida (56) hit his head during a match today & immediately passed away. From what I gather the show was not stopped even though he was pronounced dead on the scene.

This may be the hardest thing for me to admit, personally. I have some high hopes still for our picks. But if the Nets don't win a championship with any of these picks, and the Knicks WIN a championship with Bridges, the Knicks easily win this trade. Pains me to say, but is what it is. Hopefully Brooklyn wakes up and this ignites something inside of not just Marks but the whole front office. Hit on this draft, and no more tanking. Go for it next year. Go all in. Become a threat again in the NBA. #NetsWorld #StrongIsland

@xwhaleyx Thank you for looking out though! I definitely tried to get tickets ahead of time, but life just sadly got insane when my Dad wasn't doing too hot. With that said, I went on to get a ticket earlier this week and all were being re-sold for double the price, and I'm like damn.

@Scott44Mitchell Oh absolutely, like you said you never know!

I was excited to check out AEW Double or Nothing in person today. Sadly, the scalpers upcharged everything like crazy, and I was too late trying to find tickets. To all my friends (and everyone) going, enjoy it! Looks like a fun show. #AEWDoN

@xwhaleyx Thank you! I'll look into it for sure. Always hesitant when some stuff looks a bit too good to be true, especially if someone says "free." But, hey, never know.

@Scott44Mitchell x.com/i/status/20586… I just saw this tweet, any good?

@TedFromThePWO Still looking?

Isaiah Broner (@IsaiahBroner) on his dream matches, including those against the likes of Mike Santana (@Santana_Proud), Shelton Benjamin (@Sheltyb803), MVP (@The305MVP), Josh Bishop (@JoshuaBishop_), Alpha Zo (@KoTalphazo), Charity King (@theCharityKing_), Maya World (@MayaWorldd), and Samoa Joe (@SamoaJoe): “Oh yeah. Mike Santana. I’m just a huge fan of his work, even more so the story. Forget the wrestling, he drew me into his process of overcoming addiction and how he’s transformed himself to become a top guy in a company. He was in a tag team for so long. He broke out, and he made himself into what he made himself into. I respect that tempo. He’s one of the best people in the game right now. Definitely Mike Santana. Shelton Benjamin, before he hangs it up. MVP before he hangs it up. Josh Bishop, we haven’t had a singles match in a while. That’s my dog. West Coast Pro. Alpha Zo. I’d like to get out there and have a singles match with him. I saw Charity King say something about intergender matches. I would like to do a couple of intergender matches with her, Gabby, Maya World, or something like that. Ultimate dream match before he retires is Samoa Joe.” @pwponderings pwponderings.com/2026/05/23/int…

Me & JD6 are good! We spoke earlier as Men. Yall can keep yall narratives.

Isaiah Broner (@IsaiahBroner) on his current reign with the AIW Intense Championship (@aiwrestling), and defeating the likes of Jake Something (@JakeSomething_), Krule (@AtrocityKrule), and Donovan Dijak (@DijakFYE): “That I deserve to be on the next level. It’s just showing and proving to everyone that I deserve to be on the next level and that I’m everything I say I am. I believe it in myself, but with each one of those matches, my confidence has continued to grow. That’s all I want. The opportunity to show people that I deserve to be on a bigger stage. I deserve everything. I deserve every opportunity I’ve been getting so far. I deserve it, and I deserve more. That’s all it is. It’s like the Michael Jordan thing on ‘The Last Dance,’ I take everything personally now. It’s all personal to me. I deserve it all.” @pwponderings pwponderings.com/2026/05/23/int…

Isaiah Broner (@IsaiahBroner) on his ETU Wrestling (@ETUwrestling) debut against Devious Cass (@DeviousCass) & Shimbashi (@shimbashipro), Cass calling him out, and what he's hoping to teach Cass & Shimbashi: “It’s the same. I don’t know who the partner is. I probably don’t need a partner. But it’s my debut, and I’m going to treat it like I treat going anywhere else. I’m going to dominate. I’m not going to have a second chance to make a first impression. So some people may know who I am there, some people won’t know who I am. But after the match, everyone will know who I am. If I have to make examples out of Shimbashi and Cass, that’s the way the cookie crumbles, man. Wrong place, wrong time.” “Adrenaline. Maybe he was drunk. I don’t know. I appreciate the confidence. Anyone can say that when I’m a few states over, but Saturday we’ll see if he can back it up. I didn’t believe anything he said. Then, the promo after that, if you look at his face, he didn’t believe it. He didn’t seem confident in what he was saying. He was trying to hype himself up to believe it himself. Hey man, the bell has to ring eventually.” “Be careful what you ask for. Be careful what you ask for. That’s pretty much it. I know people think that these guys are young, good, up-and-coming, and they have a chance. No, you don’t. No, you don’t. So, be careful what you ask for in moving forward. I am not the one.” @pwponderings pwponderings.com/2026/05/23/int…
