The yearly tradition of the JNPO pro wrestling year in review series has returned: a month-by-month look at nearly everything that happened in 2023.
As you might expect, it kicks off with January with my special guest co-host Andrew Thompson of POST Wrestling.
It was a month of tragedy with the unexpected passing of Jay Briscoe in a car accident which rocked the wrestling world.
It was a month of surprise as Vince McMahon forced his way back into WWE to facilitate a sale of the company. It would be the most newsworthy year in company history and it all began this month.
