Calm Down, Jerry Lawler. These Are Real Puppies.


Puppy Battle Royale
AEW Fyter Fest (2000)
This promotion keeps finding new ways to endear itself to me.  In what has to be the most adorable thing to ever be shown on a professional wrestling program, All Elite Wrestling held a Puppy Battle Royale.  A group of puppies who are named after AEW wrestlers made their way to a small ring, complete with ring entrance, and took turns chewing on the referee.  A winner was declared when there was only one dog remaining in the ring.  Unlike a traditional battle royale, there was no wrestling or throwing your opponent over the top rope.  The winner was the puppy who didn't feel like wandering outside of the ring.  Click here to watch.
