Tumur Tulga then delivered one of the most dominant performances of the night, blanking Islam Guseinov 15\u20130 in the men\u2019s 65kg category to further stretch Haryana\u2019s lead.The women\u2019s 76kg contest ended in a hard-fought 2\u20132 draw between Kajal and Priya Malik, but any hopes of a late Punjab resurgence were extinguished when Yui Susaki secured a walkover win against Hansika Lamba in the women\u2019s 53kg category.Punjab managed one more win through Dinesh, who defeated Anirudh Gulia 7\u20133 in the men\u2019s 125kg bout, but the tie was already firmly in Haryana\u2019s grasp.Reacting to the impressive start, the Haryana Thunders owner Ms Prerana Banka expressed pride in the team\u2019s mindset and preparation.\u201cThis win reflects the hard work put in by our wrestlers and support staff over the past few months. It\u2019s just the beginning, but the intent shown tonight is exactly what Haryana Thunders stand for, fearless, disciplined and hungry for success. We believe this squad has the potential to go all the way,\u201d she said.With this commanding victory over Punjab Royals, Haryana Thunders opened their PWL 2026 campaign on a high.<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Haryana Thunders made a thunderous statement on their Pro Wrestling League (PWL) 2026 debut, outclassing Punjab Royals with a dominant 7\u20132 win in their opening tie at the Noida Indoor Stadium on Friday night.Displaying authority across weight categories, Haryana Thunders seized control early and never let go, blending sharp tactical execution with relentless scoring to […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2239498,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[433345,433348,433346,433347,433349,304920],"class_list":["post-2239497","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-royalty","tag-haryana-thunders","tag-neha-sangwan","tag-pro-wrestling-league","tag-punjab-royals","tag-pwl","tag-wrestling"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Haryana-Thunders-register-dominant-7\u20132-win-over-Punjab-Royals.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2239497","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2239497"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2239497\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2239499,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2239497\/revisions\/2239499"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2239498"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2239497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2239497"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2239497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
