The multi-year, exclusive agreement makes 1PW the first internationally-based promotion to join PSN, and will see 1PW’s extensive catalog available on PSN when the network launches on January 15. In addition to past events, PSN will be the home for future 1PW shows starting with “NO TURNING BACK,” on Saturday, February 25. “NO TURNING BACK,” emanating from The Engine Shed in Lincoln, UK, will feature a stacked line-up of performers including Will Ospreay, John Hennigan, Rhino, Trey Miguel, Zachary Wentz, Davey Richards, Taya Valkyrie, along with top-tier local wrestlers from the United Kingdom.
As a special kick-off to the 1PW and PSN agreement, for the first time ever, 1PW’s historic “A New Twist of Fate,” show from October 2022 will air for free during PSN’s “Premier Week” (January 15 through January 22). “A New Twist of Fate,” which had previously lived behind a paywall, featured some of the very best wrestling talent from the United Kingdom alongside superstars such as Rob Van Dam, Mickie James, Colt Cabana, current All Elite Wrestling Women’s Champion Jamie Hayter, Christopher Daniels, Nick Aldis, Ace Austin, Alex Hammerstone and more.

Our PSN team is thrilled to provide fans the opportunity to get familiar with 1PW’s history through their catalog of past events, while also providing a home where 1PW can distribute their current product.”
