Saturday night was full of in-ring action for wrestling fans to enjoy, and a FinalSlam wrestling event took place at the Plenitude Arena in Nanterre, France.
The event was put together by French internet personality AmineMaTue, and he faced off against a French YouTuber with 20 million subscribers known as Squeezie in the main event. The show also featured former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal as well as AEW wrestler Jordan Oliver.
Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that the reported 18,000 attendance number might be the largest crowd ever for an independent wrestling event.
“It was the largest crowd for an indie show that I’ve ever heard of. I don’t know if it’s the largest ever.”
“There were a number of French pro wrestlers that did the show, and the only names, as far as in the United States, you probably know were Raj Dhesi, which is Jinder Mahal, and Jordan Oliver from AEW. And from what I gathered from people who were there, and I had heard from people all day, things on social media, and also some contacted me from the building and everything, it was an amazing spectacle.”
During the show Raj Dhesi (Jinder Mahal) picked up a win over Djilsi. Anyme & Mecca defeated Brawks & Kuro, GregMMA defeated IbraTV, Nate Prince won a 30-person Final Rumble and Amine defeated Squeezie to become the inaugural FinalSlam Champion.
