WWE Smackdown Live October 11, 2016 Results and Review WTF

Best Part of Smackdown 

Holy crap did Smackdown drop off a cliff this week. After an interesting PPV, albeit somewhat odd, this night of Smackdown was just awful, and here are my thoughts on the Hulu edition of it.

WWE Smackdown Live October 11, 2016 Review

Dolph Ziggler def. The Spirit Squad

Word on the street is that The Spirit Squad are staying in the WWE for a while. You have to remember that the guys are very young, so they have a lot of bumps to take in wrestling. As for this match, it was dumb. I don’t like a single wrestler beating a tag team, but I guess this worked. The Miz cut a great promo before, and then beat up Dolph on his way out. I hope this doesn’t lead to more matches between these guys, as I’m sick of seeing them wrestle by now.

Match Rating: 2 out of 5

Naomi def. Carmella

Not a great match, and you know what? It smells of “DIVAS” division.

Match Rating: 1 out of 5

Jimmy Uso def. Chad Gable

Boring match, nothing great here. I fell asleep.

Match Rating: 2 out of 5

James Ellsworth def. AJ Styles with Dean Ambrose as guest referee

Dean Ambrose finally makes the antics work as he was the guest referee for this match up. James Ellsworth is getting some great time on Smackdown, to the detriment of others, but good for him! 14 years in the business, and he is on Smackdown, pinning the champion! That’s right, he pinned Styles and will now get a title shot next week. He’ll lose, but what a rush for James Ellsworth!

Match Rating: 4 out of 5

Bray Wyatt & Luke Harper def. Randy Orton & Kane

Another boring match that I didn’t care about. Oh well. Kane sucks, Orton is stale, and the Wyatts don’t usually win much.

Match Rating: 1 out of 5

At the end of the day, Smackdown and Raw were weak shows. Without a ppv for about 7 weeks, Smackdown will get relegated to the B show in my book. This night was boring to me, and well, who cares, right?

WWE Smackdown 6/23/2016 Results and Review The Feminists Will Hate This Show

WWE Smackdown came to Tucson, Arizona, home of the biggest cult I’ve ever been involved with The Potter’s House. Anyways, they have some of the best food down there. On this night of wrestling, however, the B show didn’t seem low, as there were some great matches, and moments. Here we go a review break down of sorts.

Seth Rollins opened the show, got interrupted by Sami Zayn to set up a match later, only to get interrupted by Dean Ambrose for the Ambrose Asylum show. We were also introduced to David Otunga on the commentary team, so that’s something.

Cesaro defeated Alberto Del Rio

I like Del Rio. I love that he calls everyone perro, great guy. This match was good, short, but sweet. Cesaro put Del Rio through the ringer, and picked up a sick victory. This may be match of the night, but we’re just getting started folks. What a cool little match. You should check this one out no doubt.

Sheamus defeated Apollo Crews by Countout

This match wasn’t much of a match, Sheamus got the win via count out, enough said.

Aj Styles defeated Jimmy Uso

Aj Styles is a beast. However, I don’t get why they booked him to allow Jimmy to have so much offense. They didn’t do that courtesy for John Cena and Karl Anderson. Did you see Anderson get buried on Monday? Odd.

The New Day defeated The Vaudevillains

I wasn’t paying that close attention to this match, but what I can tell you is that The New Day basically buried The Vaudevillains, simple as that.

The Wyatt’s had a promo. I’m sure they are the next champions, done and done.

Dana Brooks defeated Becky Lynch

Becky Lynch lost in this fast match. Is this what the Divas Revolution was all about/ If this is the booking that the WWE is going to put through, I’m not really a fan. Sasha Banks showed up. Have you noticed that the WWE pushes good looking women? That really upsets the feminists out there. But hey, that’s just me. Maybe some feminazis from Twitter can start their own blog and post 1300 posts, and then say something. Oh wait, they won’t. They can’t. They will just talk on Twitter and assume I’m an idiot. This was boring. I’m not a Sasha Banks fan, she’s injury prone.

Seth Rollins defeated Sami Zayn

In one hell of a match Seth Rollins defeated Sami Zayn. This was match of the week, no doubt, and it was absolutely good to see it happen. Rollins was incredible here, and Zayn was able to really turn things around several times. I loved it. You have to check this one out, it will no doubt be on a top 10 list sooner than later.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 10

While there was a good main event, and a nice opener, this was a boring show otherwise. There just wasn’t enough clout to get this one into the books. Zayn and Rollins, what a showcase. Low point, the women’s division.

WWE Monday Night Raw Results and Review 1/26/2016 The Dufus Son In Law Is The Champion

CM Punk said it right. When he left, us wrestling fans would be stuck with Vince McMahon’s dufus son in law and idiot daughter. That’s how we open Raw, and that’s what you’re going to be spoon fed going into Wrestlemania for a match between Triple H and possibly Roman Reigns. I don’t like it, and well, you probably don’t, but let’s make the best of it, right? Here are my thoughts on the HULU edition of Raw, since I don’t have the heart to see 3 hours of a show.

The show opens up with The Idiot Daughter, Vinnie Mac, and the Dufus Son In Law. What is this 1999? Oh well, positivity! Don’t be sour! Ugh.

Opening Segment

Triple H running down Roman Reigns to try and put him over is stupid. This is the same water treaded over and over again from the past. I know history repeats itself, but meh, meh is all I can say. With the sole exception of the fans cheering Trips and chanting Aj Styles. Styles, man, what a catch for the WWE if they don’t bury him with bad gimmicks, and getting pinned by The Big Slow…Show. Tired, that’s what this is.

Kevin Owens defeated Dolph Ziggler (burial)

Kevin Owens buried Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler and Owens had a very short match in which Owens just dominated for the most part. Owens didn’t sell last night’s Rumble beating he took or anything. It is what it is. He’s very good, but it pains me to no end to see Ziggler getting buried yet again. WWE likes to throw out shovels, I guess.

The Dudley Boyz defeated The Social Media Jobbers Outcasts Etc. (burial)

Way to bury more talent WWE. The Dudley Boyz win after Flor Rida has an interaction. Bo Dallas rapping was funny, but the short match that ensued was not. Terrible.

Aj Styles defeated Chris Jericho (sirjorgewwwe's Match of the Night)

This was not a 4 star classic. However, Styles absolutely blew away the critics. The missed Frog Splash had so much air, it was insane. The reversal finish roll up sequence, although short, was genius, and Jericho versus Styles can’t be over. These two are destined to have a serious amount of matches, with Styles getting the final rub, and probably his first loss to Jericho in the near future. Whatever the case may be, Aj Styles definitely showcased professionalism, and that he belongs in the WWE.

Sasha Banks versus Becky Lynch (No Contest)

Charlotte interfered in this match. But what got me was the commentary. JBL goes, “look at that hair Michael. It’s red, purple, the ref is bald, it’s like Muppets. Muppets in the ring”. Oh F YOU JBL! You just ruined the epic 2 minute or so match that the divas had. Ugh. Same old BS from WWE and their women’s division.

Bray Wyatt defeated Kane

Why hasn’t Kane retired? Bray Wyatt wins, Kane loses, this is a tired match we already saw 100 times before. The only thing that could be worse is if we saw Roman Reigns battle The Big Show again. This is a horrendous edition of Raw so far, and I’m trying to be positive.

The Rock Returning IS NOT AWESOME

The Rock is a part time, if that, former wrestler. He’s hijacked Wrestlemania main events, he’s beaten top stars, and now he’s back? I’m sick of this guy. You’re telling me that with so many up and coming talents on the WWE roster, you can’t give them more time? There’s SO many wrestlers that get no time at all, but instead, you bring the Rock out to talk. WWE is not a wrestling company. The Rock sucks, I don’t think he’s necessary for 2016, but hey, I’m just a dude on a random blog writing about fake fighting to an audience of nobody.

The New Day segment was cool, but having The Rock bury them is not the best way to put them over, or is it? Maybe it is, what do I know. This HULU edition is awful.

Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns defeated Sheamus and Rusev

This is illogical. Reigns and Ambrose win, don’t get me wrong. It was expected. Even with Barrett and Alberto Del Rio at ring side, they win? What the hell? Ok, I’ll be ok with it. Rusev goes through the announce table, and then out comes the idiot daughter. This is where logic gets thrown out the window.

Earlier in the show, the premise was that the Authority would pick the main event participants based on who could impress them. Well, the main event for Fast Lane should be based on the participants in matches from the night, right? NOPE! It will be Brock Lesnar versus Dean Ambrose versus Roman Reigns. Oh who the hell cares at this point. Triple H will face Roman Reigns, and that’s that. Same old BS.

Just when you think it was over, consider this meme, because well, that’s what is happening right now. Not a great Raw, not a great post-Rumble event. Remember, this was the HULU version, I may have missed matches. So yeah.
