2025 Year in Review Part 6 - Faction of the Year

 


2025 Year in Review Part 6 - Faction of the Year




FACTION OF THE YEAR: BLONDE BOMBSHELLS

Members: Goldie Locks, Dorothy, Alice
Average Performance Points: 272.00

This wasn’t close — and that’s the point.

The Blonde Bombshells didn’t win Faction of the Year because they were flashy.
They won because they were relentlessly effective.

Why they won:

  • Goldie Locks carried herself like a champion with honor, anchoring the group emotionally and competitively all year

  • Dorothy evolved from sympathetic firebrand into controlled violence — and never lost crowd trust

  • Alice became one of the most reliable tag wrestlers in the company, quietly elevating every match

Key 2025 highlights:

  • Consistent domination of the North Star Tag Division

  • Goldie’s Queen of the North reign defined by integrity, not protection

  • Even in loss — including Goldie’s career-ending match — the faction never lost credibility

Dave’s take:

The Bombshells didn’t peak. They sustained. And sustainability wins championships — and awards.


RUNNER-UP: DEMONIC LEGION

Members: Krampus, Abaddon, Jack Frost, Lilith
Average Performance Points: 232.55

If this were judged on fear generated, Demonic Legion might’ve won outright.

They didn’t dominate with numbers — they dominated with inevitability.

Key 2025 highlights:

  • Abaddon turned the Northern Lights Division into a survival test

  • Lilith destabilized the Queen of the North title picture and ended Moonshadow’s reign in one day

  • Krampus remained the faction’s blunt instrument — no charm, no apologies

Why they finished second:

Demonic Legion didn’t rack up points through volume.
They did it by making every win feel terminal.

Their ceiling remains terrifying.


RUNNER-UP: WOLF PACK

Members: Big Bad Wolf, Moonshadow, Howlers, Moon Silver
Average Performance Points: 211.94

Wolf Pack’s year was about territory and presence.

They weren’t everywhere — but where they were, they controlled the environment.

Key 2025 highlights:

  • Big Bad Wolf’s Northern Lights title reign gave the belt teeth

  • Moonshadow’s rise to the Queen of the North picture elevated the faction’s reach

  • The Howlers remained a constant threat in the tag ecosystem

Why they landed here:

Wolf Pack didn’t collapse — but they didn’t evolve as fast as the chaos around them.

Still dangerous. Still relevant. Still one spark away from another surge.


DAVE’S FINAL WORD

Faction of the Year isn’t about:

  • Who looked the coolest

  • Who cut the loudest promos

  • Who dominated one quarter

It’s about who delivered, every month, under changing conditions.

The Blonde Bombshells did that — cleanly, consistently, and without excuses.

Everyone else?
They chased chaos.
