Over the course of a packed weekend, fans in Oberhausen, Germany were treated to a bevy of wrestling styles, killer matches, wild moments, and breakout performances. Alan and Mike discussed some of the highlights from Manders&#8217; run to victory in the Carat tournament, to the non-tournament highlights like Abe vs. Nomura in Ambition. Whether it was homegrown regulars like Ahura or visiting guests like Psycho Clown, there were many wrestlers who had memorable weekends and a lot of reasons to be optimistic about European wrestling were evident. Nearly two hours of chat, not just breaking down the events in the Turbinenhalle, but also taking stock of the scene as a whole.
