MZW Forever
MZW Forever was show by Maniac Zone Wrestling, once again held in the Bakara Community Centre.
Build-up
- Along with the show's announcement, a poster featuring MZW Champion Matt Buckna was posted confirming his appearance.
- The first competitor to be officially announced was Marcelito, who mostly appears for PpW. With MZW's notably thin roster, this set the tone for yet another cross-over MZW show.
- On 13.02.2025 MZW released a video of Goblin, stating that he's finally going to appear in "the greenest federation in Poland" and then throw "the biggest afterparty in Breslau ever since those lands returned under the rule of the Republic of Poland".
- Two days later MZW announced that Goblin would face the German wrestler Robert Kaiser, last seen in 2016 at Champions War II.
- On 18.02.2025 Matt Buckna challenged Shadow to a fight for his MZW Championship, in honour of MZW's 11th anniversary.
- On 22.02.2025 MZW announced that Kubes, an American wrestler of Polish origin, would appear at the show. This was three days after Kubes was confirmed by ShowOff to be booked for the second show by Legacy of Wrestling.
- On 26.02.2025 Disco Pablo was announced to face Tony "The Riverman" Sheen, who made his in-ring debut at the previous show.
- On 28.02.2025 MZW published a promo by Aron Wake in which he challenged Matt Buckna to a match for the MZW Championship, criticizing his choice of Shadow as opponent, saying that Matt doesn't care about MZW fans, Shadow doesn't deserve a rematch just yet, and that Matt only chose him for an easy victory.
- On 3.03.2025 Matt responded to Wake's video, declaring that the championship match will be between Shadow, Wake and himself.
- On 10.03.2025 Legia Łysych issued an open challenge to "anyone who's got the balls".
- On 12.03.2025 Mister Z was confirmed via a promo video hosted on MZW's social media. He predicted that he would face another foreign opponent and questioned MZW's apparent need to involve international talent, when great wrestlers as himself are available. He promised to "kick their asses" just like he did with Marcus Monere - to whom he actually lost at Żadnych Granic in 2023. Two days later, Mr Z vs Kubes was officially announced.
- On 15.03, Marcus Monere revealed via Insta-stories that he's going to miss the show due to being hospitalized. This left Sambor without an opponent, effectively cancelling their previously announced match.
- On 16.03 MZW announced resuming their cooperation with MyWrestling portal, and published a photo with MyWrestling's logo added to the ring turnbuckles.
- On 17.03, Syriusz Dziedzic was announced for the show. In the promo, he emphasized that he wants to become a legend.
- On 27.03 MZW announced Dieter Schwartz, last seen at Game ON, as the new opponent for Sambor.

Recap
- Isnorr, who broke his arm two weeks prior, was present in the audience. During the break in the show he interviewed fans for the Istota Wrestlingu podcast.

- The event saw an unexpected return of Apollo Anderson, in a new Wolf gimmick.
- Syriusz Dziedzic answered Legia's open challenge, with Jędruś Bułecka as his tag team partner. This was Jędruś's second appearance after making a surprise return the show before.
- Dziedzic came out wearing a shirt that said "WŁOSY" (HAIR), as a jab at his bald opponents.
- Rusałka helped Sambor stay in his match by pushing a rope towards him for a rope break.
- Near the end of Tony Sheen vs Disco Pablo, Taras's music suddenly played, distracting Pablo and allowing Sheen to score a victory.
- After his fight with Kubes, Mister Z took a chair and spent the main event seated in the front row, observing the in-ring action.
- After the show, Disco Pablo came out with his arm in a sling. According to him, the injury was legitimate, but not serious.
