[BAKABELLA @SBakabella]

Tonight @The_MJF & I made history

The only time #1 & #500 in the #pwi500 were in a ring together the year the issue was released.

Thank you @OfficialPWI podcast and @AlCastlePWI for the shoutout!!!!! I hope to keep impressing!!

Sorry to everyone who’s upset that they didn’t get 500 instead of @SBakabella my fault for not turning around in time during the King of CAP!

This will be the 1st time ever #1 & #500 will be in the ring at the same time.

@BrianRDJames will be there too, but he's not in the #pwi500 because he didn't train hard enough

In memory of PAC.

On May 4, 2007, PAC faced El Generico in the first round of #wXw16Carat Gold in Essen, Germany.

We're making this match available for FREE on YouTube as we remember PAC and his time in wXw.

📺 https://t.co/OhrmasSj75

Rest in peace, PAC.

[BAKABELLA @SBakabella]

You give me a platform, and I'll use it to bury everyone.

I talk about all of my classic matches, and you get a special appearance from my cat, Al Derusha

Listen now

[PWI (Pro Wrestling Illustrated) @OfficialPWI]

After ranking 500 on the 2026 #PWI500, @SBakabella is riding high! Today, he reflects on his efforts to make the list (including wrestling with a hernia), while @AlCastlePWI takes Bakabella to task for messing with a member of his family at @CreateAPro.

I work for WWE but watch a lot of wrestling worldwide. This goes for all wrestlers in all companies. I have worked in Wrestling for 42 years. An observation. We are portraying trained pro fighters with instincts ( even comedy bouts). If you don’t win you would make less money in the story we’re telling. Every TV bout , if there’s a pin, the cameras focus in. Please pin and kick out like your life and career depend on it. In story, it does. I’ve also been a part of knowing most talent since the 2000’s in many companies. As time goes by younger talent copy their favourite of film. I recently watch AJ Styles v Amazing Red from the early 2000’s. I see how many people copied them. What I saw was every pin was aggressively applied and shoulders covered and stacked. Every kick out they kicked out like their life depended on it. Something has been lost in the last 20 + years. Let’s not insult the intelligence of our audience who are giving us their precious time. In a fight scene in a movie ( which is what wrestling is) we know the punches don’t really hit but if we saw that we would eventually stop watching it. Your audience and fans deserve better. If you can’t be uncomfortable for a few seconds being stacked up in a pin, maybe this isn’t for you.
