SITE NEWS: The Chairshot Welcomes New Editors & Director

Published

on

WWE WrestleMania 32 Stadium

Since our debut in late November 2017 (Thanksgiving weekend), our staff has been hard at work establishing The Chairshot as the leading up-and-coming site covering pro wrestling on the internet. Along the way, we’ve added many writers and podcasts, and have expanded our reach into sports and entertainment.

Our most recent call for staff (many positions still open!) was a direct result of the hard work put in by the current staff. We are proud to announce the following leadership additions to The Chairshot team!

Andrew Balaz, Managing Editor

Andrew has been with our team since Yes Wrestling, and has gradually taken on more and more responsibility. Andrew spearheaded our Match Of The Week, Match Rankings, Power Rankings, compiles our PPV predictions, is our resident champion of Japanese wrestling, and is working to create Cheap Shots–our fan based blog section. Andrew also appears on POD is WAR opposite Christopher Platt, our show where both hosts battle it out while discussing five entertaining topics.

As Managing Editor, Andrew is directly responsible for reviewing and publishing the many articles appearing on The Chairshot, along with the selection and onboarding of new writing staff.

You can follow Andrew on Twitter @IWCWarChief and reach him at andrewbalaz@thechairshot.com.

Stephen Moree, News Editor

Stephen comes to The Chairshot with extensive news reporting experience, covering some of the biggest and most important happenings in professional wrestling over the past few years. Stephen keeps his ear to the ground and his finger on the pulse of all facets of pro wrestling. Even taking a look at Stephen’s first 48 hours on the job you’ll see news items involving WWE, Impact Wrestling, Ring Of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling, and more!

As News Editor, Stephen is responsible for providing our readers with current and salient wrestling news in a timely fashion on a daily basis. He is also spearheading our PPV Live InterReaction, where he provides his own PPV reaction along with you, the readers of The Chairshot!

You can follow Stephen on Twitter @RawViews_Stephen, and will soon be able to email him at stephenmoree@thechairshot.com.

Brandon Murchison, Promotions Director

Brandon joined The Chairshot with an extensive history online, establishing himself among the foremost experts in fantasy sports at RotoExperts.com. With RotoExperts, Brandon has worked to promote site’s profile via avenues too numerous to list here. At The Chairshot, Brandon is a regular member of our podcasting team, appearing on the 2MB franchise shows along with appearances on our Impromptu Sports series.

As our Promotions Director, Brandon will work to increase the profile and credibility of The Chairshot through creative forms of promotion. One of his first visions is to introduce a Fantasy Wrestling platform in which our readers can compete, which we will soon begin testing internally.

You can follow Brandon on Twitter @RotoSuperstar and reach him at BrandonMurch@thechairshot.com.

On behalf of PC Tunner (Radio Programming Director), Dan Phelan (Chief Engineer) and myself, please welcome them to our team! Our Social Media Director position remains open, and we are still seeking writers and podcasts. Please check our Now Hiring page for more information.

WWE stars praise Natalya and TJ Wilson’s The Dungeon 2.0 for sharpening in-ring skills

Published

on

Natalya shared a new video on X showcasing training sessions at The Dungeon 2.0, the renovated school she runs with TJ Wilson, calling the project a continuation of her grandfather’s “heart and grit” approach to building resilient performers. The clip underscores their mission to pass on old-school fundamentals to a new generation, with Natalya reiterating the facility is more than a gym—it’s a “love letter to wrestling.”

Several WWE names weigh in on the impact: Liv Morgan credits weekly three-hour sessions for boosting her confidence and performance, Ilja Dragunov used the Dungeon to prep his comeback after an ACL tear, Jacob Fatu praises TJ’s coaching and Natalya’s no-nonsense push, and B-Fab highlights the space as a creative canvas to experiment and build fundamentals. The Dungeon’s influence extends beyond current stars—John Cena visited last year to share industry wisdom—cementing its role as a training hub for talent across promotions.

WWE has appointed Hunter Selby as its new Director of Show Production and Design, a role Selby confirmed on LinkedIn, saying he’s “excited” to begin and looking forward to new designs debuting on screens. Selby brings three Emmy nominations for outstanding lighting design and direction, including credits for American Idol (2023, 2025) and SNL50: The Homecoming Concert.
