WWE Monday Night Raw October 8, 2018 Results and Review From Chicago To Somewhere

Elias WWE 

WE start the show with talking of course, and it features Triple H coming out and getting a great ovation. I love the new HHH shirt, by the way. Due looks really cool, as a COO, wow. I want to be a COO that looks that good at that age. Good on him. Shawn Michaels would show up too.

Triple H said an avalanche came down on him and Michaels, as they were on top of it. That’s not how avalanches work. If you’re on top of a mountain, the ground beneath you could shift, but unless you’re underneath the avalanche to start, then you will not get buried, as you’re on top of it. If you’re on top of a mountain, avalanches can’t bury you, you’re on top. This doesn’t make sense, I guess.

Bobby Lashley defeated Kevin Owens

Does Kevin Owens ever get the upper hand any more? He now has jobbed to Lashley, and once again loses. He didn’t get completely buried, but with Lio Rush and Lashely together, the big man has beaten Kevin Owens again. So much for that “prize fighter” gimmick. This was lackluster, and the crowd was dead for a lot of it. Lately would “turn” as he ended up beating up Kevin Owens after the match, and that was that. I guess that’s cool, Lashley is a bad guy, and Owens is a good guy? Meh. Owens hasn’t been much of anything in the past few months, so maybe this will change? I don’t know. Boring match, with an ok ending, and a beat down of Owens.

Elias Sang

Elias did his thing, only to get interrupted by Ronda Rousey, and that was that. I don’t know what the purpose of that was, but Elias gets the book, and the women get a turn in a rematch from the early morning ppv.

Ronda Rousey and The Bella Twins defeated The Riott Squad

This was a cool match, I guess. It wasn’t that great overall, it was just another match that we saw from Australia.

After the match, The Bella Twins tried to beat down Ronda Rousey, and they couldn’t take her on after too long, as Rousey got the better of the two for a moment, until they threw Rousey into the post and ring steps. The Bella Twins, lack wrestling skill, but look good, so they get the promotion. Must be nice.

Bayley and Finn Balor defeated Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox

Well, this was a match. Entertaining, a bit, short, but it had enough gusto to make it worth watching. A good deal of back and forth, with the ending that you would expect, as Balor picked up the victory after his stomp from the top. Not bad at all. I didn’t hate it, but it had no major consequences.

The Conquistador won the global battle royal

This was a joke, and it was Kurt Angle under a mask. That’s all I can say about this joke of a match. Such a large roster and this is what they give us? Ok, sure.

Ember Moon defeated Nia Jax via cont out

Nia Jax controlled most of this match, but it turns into a terrible solution over time, as Jax got counted out and that was that. I guess that’s ok? I don’t know. I don’t care about this.

Trish Stratus and Lita Announcement

Trish Stratus came out and got a mediocre reception. Her and Lita will take on Alexa Bliss and Mickie James. Meh. Just Meh. Lita came out, and she’s hot as ever, I love her.

Chad Gable and Bobby Roode defeated The Ascension

Well, this was a match, and without many consequences, it was just entertaining to see it go down. Gable would win with his rolling duplex, and that was that. Roode was set to win the match, and he looks like he lost some weight, he’s not on the roads any more.

After the match, the AOP ran down and squared off against Roode and Gable and that was that, I guess that was ok.

The Wolves defeated The Shield

Fast paced, back and forth, great overall push forward, with a focus on breaking down the elements here. Lots of back and forth, with a great push forward within the timing. Drew McIntyre would get the victory here, and that was that. Good stuff overall.

Ronda Rousey Makes Her WWE Raw Debut - Source WWE 

Just when you thought you tuned into a wrestling show, two dorks come to the ring, and start to jibber jabber. That’s right, we open the show with Kurt Angle and Baron Corbin talking. Great. Roman Reigns came out and starting to join the guys in a Jib Jab session.

WWE Monday Night Raw July 6, 2018 Results and Review

Roman Reigns defeated Baron Corbin

The opening match was setup from the talking, and it wasn’t that great, as you’d expect. Roman and Corbin did do battle, and it wasn’t too bad at first glance, but when Corbin couldn’t put the Big Dog away, he decided to walk. That led Finn Balor to come out, and that caused Corbin to go back to the ring and get hit with a Superman punch as he was trying to get back in. How wasn’t he counted out? Reigns hit that spear and we saw Corbin lose to Reigns, because, of course we did.

Bobby Roode defeated Mojo Rawley

Wow, a good Mojo match? Yep, looks like Mojo steps out of the shadow of former football players, and others that want to get into Pro Wrestling, because he put up a good fight against Bobby Roode. However, the wiley Roode was able to garner a great deal of offense, and eventually get Rawley caught up in a frenetic finish, with a nice DDT to end it. It was glorious, no doubt, and it was the end of the match, clean as a sheet. Rawley’s win streak ends here.

Elias Got A Beat Down

Elias got a beat down from Bobby Lashley, so that was that. Lashley got the better of him, and that was that. That’s all I can say about this. It was lame.

The Kevin Owens Show

Well, another non-wrestling segment. Right now my computer has no sound because the sound card fried, so I have to just watch these idiots try to entertain. The funny part was that at one point the stage seemed to take a bump and then tipped over completely! You know why? It was Braun Strowman, he tipped over the stage for no reason! Lol. Oh well. I’m tired of this. I’m going to the bathroom. After this, Bruan Strowman went to the ring and apparently was supposed to fight Jinder Mahal.

Jinder Mahal defeated Braun Strowman

Well, they sure hindered Jinder now. Jinder won, again, although because Owens interrupted the match, if you can call it that. This is hindering Jinder, if you ask me.

Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre defeated Seth Rollins

Of course they did! They always seem to do this with the wrong people. If this was John Cena or Roman Reigns, Ziggler and McIntyre would’ve lost. But not this time, the show was all Rollins trying to survive, and just couldn’t make it happen. Rollins did throw down a lot of great points of contention, but not enough to make this worthwhile, as he lost after the numbers game kept going through the motions, and that was that. Rollins is always fun to watch, even when he’s getting a beat down, lol.

The Revival versus The B Team Ended in A No Contest

This match didn’t get too far along before The Deleters of Worlds showed up and laid them all out. Ok, well that was short, and sweet, and honestly, I didn’t care any longer. The WWE has taken an amazing thing and made it into a watered down Kool Aid solution that is just not worth while for me or anyone else for that matter.

The Riot Squad defeated Sasha Banks and Bayley

This again? Ok, well this wasn’t a terrible match. Things were going well for the best friends, but it turned out that a masked woman in a hoodie showed up and caused a distraction. That led to the famous distraction roll up, and that led to a Morgan pinfall, and that was that. The person under the hood? It was none other than Ruby Riott! She’s back and she helped her girls get the win here!

Ronda Rousey defeated Alicia Fox

Well, did anyone really think that Ronda Rousey was going to lose in this match? Alicia Fox had barely any sort of offense here, and Ronda would eventually lean back and basically break Fox’s arm. Even with Alexa Bliss outside, that wasn’t enough, and well, Rousey won huge. Rousey is going to end up just team rolling everyone, that’s it. A good match this was not, and well, Alexa Bliss is on the radar next, isn’t she? Rousey wins, and that’s really the story that WWE wants to tell right now. I like Rousey, but she’s going to need more competition, and get less winded in the ring. She was truly winded after a short match, and you could tell in the post match interview. Alexa Bliss tried to attack, but was thwarted fast. That was the end.

Raw was not great, it was kind of boring at times, had a lot of talking, and didn’t make full use of a lot of the people that they have on the roster. I didn’t hate this episode, but it had a lot of filler. Bliss is running scared right now.

WWE Monday Night Raw July 30, 2018 Results and Review

WWE Monday Night Raw July 30, 2018 - Image Source WWE 

Can I star calling WWE Monday Night Raw, The Roman Reigns show yet? He started this week by walking slowly to the ring, and well, you know he got a mix of boos and cheers, and he soaked it all in at the start of the show. At this point, it's cool to just hate on the guy if you ask me.

WWE Monday Night Raw July 30, 2018 Results and Review

The Roman Reigns show started with him cutting a promo then calling out Brock Lesnar, but out came Paul Heyman. The two went back and forth, and it was a move to try and get Lesnar booed, which kind of worked. The show then moved to Seth Rollins sitting in the back stage area, and we were 12 minutes into a professional wrestling show, without seeing any professional wrestling at all. I wonder when the wrestling would begin?

At about the 15 minute mark, we started to get our first match, and it featured Alex Wright 2.0. I spoke too soon, the wrestling didn't start. We got a backstage segment where we saw Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman. Lesnar scared Heyman by throwing his phone and then sitting down to read a magazine. I can respect Lesnar, dude is an introvert, doesn't like people, and just wants to collect a paycheck. I like that. I'd do the same. Oh, the wrestling would begin around the 16 minute mark if you took out the commercials, so I cannot really say when the wrestling truly began, but I'm going to guess that it would've been the 20 minute or 30 minute mark if I was watching in real time instead of the day after.

Baron Corbin defeated Finn Balor

This was one hell of a match, and I really dug the whole thing. It was given a little time, and the two went back and forth. I loved Balor's strategy of keeping coming back, and his Shotgun Dropkick on the outside was incredible, and I loved that move. However, Corbin would get his win here, and well, that's what happens, now doesn't it? 50-50 booking strikes again. Corbin did a great job here, and Balor is fun to watch against a bigger opponent. Good stuff, but I'm assuming that this feud is far from over, considering Corbin won and then came back to the ring to do more damage to Balor.

Of course, we would get another mention about the Women's Revolution, and how Stephanie McMahon was a pioneer etc. Man, they keep pushing this. I'll buy it, why not?!

Alicia Fox defeated Natalya

Thanks to a distraction, Alicia Fox picked up a win, however, you're going to find that this was a clumsy match. The two didn't work that well together, and the story really seemed to point towards something a bit different. The match ended thanks to a distraction from Alicia Fox on Ronda Rousey. When that occurred, Natalya was hit with a stiff right hand from Alexa Bliss on the outside, and Fox pounced. After the match, Rond Rousey tried to even the score, but beleive it or not, Alicai Fox got the best of her! I kid you not. I'm not even sure how to really explain what went down, but it got Ronda mad, and we will most likely see a tag team match coming soon. But this match was clumsy at best.

Elias Did A Performance

Who wants to walk with Elias?! Me! Out came Bobby Lashley and the two exchanged a few words, and it seemed like things were going to go swell. However, you knew what was going to go down, and honestly, it was ok, Lashley got mad when Elias hit him, and then threw him down a few pegs, and that was that, or rather, Lashley threw him down in retaliation.

Jinder Mahal defeated Braun Strowman via Count Out

This was a slow match, until Kevin Owens showed up to try and steal the Money in the Bank briefcase. Strowman chased Owens, and then got counted out. Jinder Mahal wins! Wow, the dude gets a win over Strowman. A win is a win, right?

Apollo Crews defeated One of the AOP

A roll up victory for Crews. I couldn't stop looking at Dana Brooke though, I'm sorry, she's hot to me. I'd love to meet her. This match was short and not that good.

Seth Rollins vs Drew McIntyre Ended In A No Contest

This was a really good match, until Dolph Ziggler ran in to mess things up. That was stupid, and really just messed things up for me. I didn't like that, but hey what can you do? The match was back and forth, with some good moments, and some nice shots, but Ziggler caused the problem, and that was that.

Roman Reigns Was Thrown Out

That's it. Roman Reigns was thrown out of the building. Ok.

The B Team Promo

The B team got called into the ring, and they did some random promo things, it was ok at best. The Deleters of Worlds showed up, but after some back and forth, The Revival showed up and said they should get a title shot. So that prompted Teddy Long to show up and make it a straight up tag team match, you know!

The Revival defeated Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt

Well, this was a throwaway match in a lot of ways. Tully and Arn, I mean The Revival were able to put some serious boots to the random tag team that is Awoken. I miss the revelry of Broken Matt Hardy, not this "woken" Hardy dude. Anyways, this match wasn't too long, and it was the Revival getting the upper hand and winning the match. It was thrown together, and it wasn't half bad to see the second coming of the Brain Busters.

Bayley and Sasha Banks defeated Liv Morgan and Sara Logan

Well, the Riott Squad is done. Bayley and Sasha are on the same page now, and the two put on a show of how good things can be. The showcase of the two are great, and if they are going to create a women's tag team championship, they should get it. The two are great together, and while the Riott Squad didn't go down without a fight, they still lost, and that was that. A good match, although very predictable at this point.

Backstage, the WWE teased Brock Lesnar firing Paul Heyman, as he grabbed him by the collar and basically said he didn't give a crap about the fans or WWE or anything. Then let Heyman go, and that was that. I'm so sick of Lesnar.

Paul Heyman Gives Up

Paul Heyman comes down to the ring and tells Kurt Angle that Brock Lesnar is not going to come down tonight. Heyman was just about fired, but Brock Lesnar then showed up, with only 4 minutes left in the show. Lesnar gave Angle an F5 then almost beat up Heyman and walked away. Meh.

This night of wrestling was boring to me, except there were a few moments that I didn't hate. The women got a little more time than normal, but the guys seemed to be thrown into throwaway segments and matches. I guess that's Raw, the B show if you ask me. I wouldn't say that I would've missed this show if I didn't see it, that's for sure.

WWE Monday Night Raw December 4, 2017 Results and Review The Dumpster Fire Keeps Burning

Asuka Looking Great - Source WWE dot com

Once again, I am reviewing the HULU version of Monday Night Raw, mainly because I’m on the road in Las Vegas. The night of Wrestling was edited down into 90 minutes of action, and well, here we go, my take on how it all worked out.

WWE Monday Night Raw December 4, 2017 Results and Review

I honestly forget how the show opened. It was mainly talking. Roman Reigns and Jason Jordan were slack jawing about the Intercontinental Title, and how Jordan wants a shot and asks his dad to give him a shot, and Angle obliges. But not until Samoa Joe comes out to challenge, and that prompts a Reigns beat down from Jordan, and what not.

Roman Reigns defeated Jason Jordan

Here we go, not a bad match for Jason Jordan. Jordan fights a 20 minute or so battle with Reigns, who has recently said he was the best wrestler in the entire world. Reigns put the boots to Jordan, but Jason Jordan was dropping a lot of suplexes, dropkicks, and running through the paces of a good match. This wasn’t half bad, it was a fun showcase of stellar wrestling, and some good moments, even though the crowd was booing the crap out of Jordan at some points.

Paige defeated Sasha Banks

Paige actually put on a good match with Banks. The Boss couldn’t handle the onslaught that Paige and her cronies brought, and eventually led to a brawl outside and then Banks beat down Banks finishing her off for the 3 count and her finisher.

Drew Gulak defeated Cedric Alexander, Mustafa Ali, and Tony Nesese

This was not shown on HULU

Braun Strowman attacked Elias

Elias wanted a match, and Braun came out to answer, only to beat up Elias, and the match never really started.

Asuka defeated Alicia Fox

This went a lot longer than the last time Asuka fought. Alicia Fox was able to fight a great deal, but in the end it was Asuka that would get the win. I was surprised by how long it took Asuka to win this match, it took her way longer than I would’ve thought, and it was kind of interesting to see how she went through the motions.

Finn Balor defeated Bo Dallas

This was not shown on HULU

Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt Did Dueling Promos

Matt Hardy is now Awoken, and he’s in full Broken or rather Woken mode. It’s going to be interesting to see how he can pin Wyatt, because you know Wyatt loses every time.

Cesaro and Sheamus defeated Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins

The main event was for the Raw tag team titles, and it was interesting to see how it all went down. The two teams work really well, and were able to gain the upper hand on each other left and right. However, Cesaro and Sheamus did get a big win with the help of Samoa Joe, and they retained the titles, in one hell of a main event in Los Angeles.

Raw wasn’t half bad. But let’s be honest. There was no Universal Champion, Reigns and Jordan were getting booed, the main event was good, and the rest of the show was just a lot of fluff if you ask me. Not exactly a great one, but not the worst one I’ve ever seen either.

WWE Raw November 7, 2017 Results and Review The Logical Gap Widens

Stellar Boot

If you were to apply logic to the latest WWE booking, you would be sorely disappointed. I know I was today. This was an insane night of wrestling, and you know what? I didn’t even see the whole thing. I saw the HULU edition and was disappointed by the selection that they chose. There is logic issues that you may want to consider here. It’s odd.

WWE Raw November 7, 2017 Results and Review HULU Edition

First and foremost, the show opened up with Miz TV as the opening segment. Lots of talking, and random BS, with Kurt Angle saying that the Miz would have to fight Braun Strowman. But here’s the thing, I thought the title was on the line, but apparently it wasn’t. Oh well.

Jason Jordan defeated Elias in a Guitar On A Pole Match

This wasn’t shown on HULU

Asuka defeated Stacy Coates

This wasn’t on HULU

FInn Balor and Samoa Joe went to a double count out

Samoa Joe came out to cut a promo about how no one could beat him. He said that anyone that stood in front of him would get put down. He first took out Titus, but then out came Finn Balor aka Alex Wright 2.0. Now, this wasn’t crazy, mind you, it was just an average back and forth match, with lots of counters. The match went into a brawl and the refs came out to stop it, and it was a double count out. But Angle came out and said that they both were team members for Survivor Series. Not a great match, not a bad match.

Sasha Banks and Bayley defeated Alicia Fox and Nia Jax

This wasn’t bad. This was a good women’s match, but Jax once again is on the losing end, while Banks and Bayley got the win. Fox hits hard, I’m surprised how hard she hits the women, but she eventually tapped out, and then said that she wanted Banks on her team, not Bayley! So Banks will be on the Survivor Series team.

Braun Strowman defeated The MIz via DQ

Hey, remember that title match? NO? Good, because the title wasn’t on the line. I don’t know why they do this, but oh well. Strowman ran through The Miz, and then Kane came out to cause the disqualification. Strowman beat up Kane, then beat up the Miz and his crew. That was that. I don’t like the booking here, it doesn’t make sense. Why didn’t Miz just run with his belt, he survived it doesn’t matter any longer.

Pete Dunne defeated Enzo Amore

This wasn’t shown on HULU

Cesaro and Sheamus defeated Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose for the Raw Tag Team Titles

This wasn’t bad, mind you. It just wasn’t great. The match was ok, for what it was, and it featured a lot of action, back and forth moves, and some good moments. But the ending was baffling. Out comes the New Day in the crowd and gets on the MIC. Angle commands all of the Raw guys to come down to the ring and defend Raw, but in the middle of this, the match stops and out of nowhere a Brogue kick levels the champions, and boom, new title holders. That’s right, title change! Ok, sure, why not?

That’s the end of Raw, and you know, it felt like it was 9 hours long. Not a bad show, but logically it made no sense to me, but hey, it’s WWE and they do whatever the hell they want these days. I did like some of the action, but honestly, I’m tired of the same match ups over and over again.

WWE Monday Night Raw October 30, 2017 Results and Review The B Word

WWE Monday Night Raw 10/30/2017 - SRC WWE dot com

For those two readers out there, I did manage to watch this week’s Raw. I watched last week too, but didn’t write as much about WWE after the pay per view because I didn’t feel like it. Well, not really, I just had a lot of work and wasn’t up to writing about things as I was working on other things overall. But hey, I’m back now, and let’s talk about the show in which we saw lots of stuff, and filler.

WWE Monday Night Raw October 30, 2017 Results and Review

The opening showed off Stephanie McMahon cutting down Kurt Angle. She made him team captain of the Survivor Series Raw Team, and that means we’ll see him wrestle. She has a way of really being negative on screen, and I like it. Triple H is a lucky man to get to have some action with Stephanie McMahon, wow, I’m just saying. I’m not a sub, but I’d be hers. Anyways, this was dumb.

Nia Jax defeated Bayley

Word on the street is that Nia Jax was mad and left WWE for a while to cool off. She talked to The Rock and pulled some strings apparently because here she is back in action and beating down Bayley. Bayley put up an interesting fight, but she was not going to win, and you knew it. I hear she’s making 200,000 a year, so you know what, why not?

Samoa Joe defeated Apollo Crews

Samoa Joe is back and he hates everyone, or so he says. He made quick work of Apollo Crews, then choked out Titus for being at ringside. This was a quick match, and Crews is back to being jobber status. That sucks, because he’s one of the most talented in-ring performers.

The Miz defeated Matt Hardy

This wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t the best Miz match. It was just kind of bland. I wonder if Strowman is going to take the title off of Miz? Or maybe they won’t even fight. I don’t know. This was an ok match and Hardy is still over, but without Jeff, or being Broken, I don’t really like him as much. It’s a decent match no doubt.

Asuka defeated Stacie Cullen

A burial. A burial so bad that Cullen will most likely be fired, right Emma? Good riddance.

Kane Attacked Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan was back stage and the lights went out, then Kane showed up and choke slammed him to hell? You didn’t see it, but it caused Bryan to get left out on a stretcher, so that was that.

Finn Balor defeated Cesaro

Not a terrible match, but not a great one either. I don’t know why this match was booked, or why the tag titles are taking a back seat to action this week, but whatever. Cesaro gave Balor a good fight, but Balor was able to come back and win with his finisher. I still like Alex Wright better.

Kane defeated Seth Rollins

This was hilarious. Seth Rollins loses to Kane. Kane is just burying guys now, and I don’t know why.

Heath Slater and Rhyno defeated The Club Sandwich Boys

This was a trick or treat street fight! It was funny, but man, what a waste of the teams. These guys did manage to put on an entertaining match though, and for that I give them credit. This was a fun moment on Raw, and I loved it. I liked the funny moments, and the good overall brawling. This just had a few spots of fighting, and lots of smashing pumpkins and more. I liked it enough to say that this was the best part of Raw for me.

Jason Jordan attacked Elias

Elias was going to sing a song but Jason Jordan showed up and smashed his guitar. Oh well.

Kalisto defeated Drew Gulak

A quick match in which Kalisto got the win over Gulak, and then Enzo came in and danced and beat up Kalisto. This was awful. Gulak is so much better than this.

Alexa Bliss defeated Mickie James

I love Alexa. This was a good match for what it was, not as good as their TLC match, but it had some good back and forth. Mickie James is so good in the Ring, but Alexa seems to not have chemistry with her. Either way, this match didn’t leave me disappointed, and Bliss won again. Not half bad folks, this was a good main event for Raw.

Braun Strowman Showed Up

Braun Strowman showed up and beat up The Miz and The Miztourage. But shouldn’t he be mad at Kane? Just saying.

Overall, Raw went by fast. The matches were ok, the stories are still continuing for Survivors Series, and well, I don’t hate the show, but it’s far from the best effort from Raw. The street fight was my favorite though, I could watch that again. Great stuff from those teams, although it’s sad to see the talent wasted in such a match that has no real consequences etc.

WWE TLC 2017 Results and Review The Angle Return

WWE TLC 2017 - SRC WWE DOT COM

This past Sunday WWE had an event known as TLC. It usually features an array of matches with no rules, but not this time, this time you’re going to find that there were a lot of matches that had a lot of rules, and some that just seemed like a joke. Well, if you didn’t watch it or you did watch it and are waiting for me to talk about it, today is your lucky day. I’ve watched too much wrestling in a short span of time.

WWE TLC 2017 Results and Review

Sasha Banks defeated Alicia Fox

Alicia Fox has been hitting her stride as someone that is crazy, and hits hard in the ring. She busted Sasha Banks wide open on Raw, and in this match the two hit each other hard. I mean a lot harder than most of the divas or the women, rather, and it was nice to see them get physical and not “sexy”. The two put on a show of strength and eventually Banks would get the big win.

Asuka defeated Emma

There is no rhyme or reason for the way that this match went. Asuka won but it took her roughly 20 minutes to get the job done. Emma has been a jobber on Raw but was able to take on Asuka in this match and surprise her. She nearly got a few pinfalls, and that really shocked the crowd. But of course it was Asuka getting her big win and moment on the PPV that really was the story here, and it was a good opener for a hot crowd of 13,000 plus fans.

Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann defeated Jack Gallagher and The Brian Kendrick

This was a high flying, fast paced match, and it really was good to see. The main spot I recall was a Phoenix Splash from the top onto Kendrick, and a lot of diving. I loved it. This was a great cruiserweight match that was a lot of fun to watch and had some great spots overall. The teams work really well together, and the crowd was into the offense, even if no one is watching 205 Live.

Alexa Bliss defeated Mickie James

Mickie James carried Alexa Bliss to a great match in my opinion. The two had some miscues at certain times, but overall, this match was a fun romp that had a lot going for it. It had a lot of back and forth, good chemistry at times, and Bliss hitting and missing her moves. James is a veteran and can go fast or slow, and doesn’t look winded at all. I liked this one, and Bliss would get the win with the DDT because I like her and that’s awesome! Or because she’s awesome, I don’t know, I love her.

Enzo Amore defeated Kalisto

Well, you knew this was going to happen, didn’t you? Well Kalisto put on a good lucha match, and you know what? Enzo was good too. That’s right, Enzo was great here and he put on a show of great back and forth action with some great overall moves. His top rope leaping DDT is great to watch, and really is a positive. He would win with a thumb to the eye, and a roll up, but that’s ok.

The Demon Finn Balor defeated Aj Styles

A dream match for the ages, and it was quite good overall. A lot of back and forth, no one got the advantage early on, and the two traded moves like there was no tomorrow. Styles looked tired from his 18 hour flight, but Balor carried him at times, and you know what? Styles is the best in the world at what he does, and it shows. The Demon would get the win with his finisher, and he would come out like Alex Wright on Raw. This was a good overall match, with lots of back and forth, kicks, and some nice shotgun blasts from Finn Balor, who took this first of what may be many matches between the two.

Jason Jordan defeated Elias

Throughout the show you had to endure Elias trying to play his music and Jordan interrupting by throwing salad at him. This was an insult of the eighteen century, and while the match was good, the crowd was dead and Elias would lose again. Why is this guy getting so much heat and losing? He should be winning and getting monster heat, but hey, I don’t write the shows, I just watch them. This was a better match than I thought, and it was worth their time slot before the main event.

Kurt Angle and The Shield defeated Braun Strowman, Kane, Cesaro, Sheamus, and the Miz in a TLC Match

Kurt Angle came out in shield uniform and got a huge reaction. He seemed so happy to just be there, and it showed. When you watch this match, you could tell that the teams were treating Kurt with kid gloves. They were protecting him throughout all of the offense, and the younger men were taking on a bulk of the responsibility. At one point Kurt gets powerslammed through a table and is carted away. Then the Shield has to try and fight off 5 men. This was exactly like Hogan and Savage versus the Dungeon of Doom and the Four Horseman in a steel cage at Superbrawl. I loved the cheese factor, but the match was very long and kind of convoluted at times. There was a spot where Braun Strowman was throwing into a dumpster! That’s right, a dumpster and carted away. Angle would return with his music and then he would take out 4 guys, before he would eventually get the better of The Miz and win big.

Overall, TLC 2017 was an entertaining show and was made a lot better by Aj Styles and Kurt Angle. I didn’t miss Roman Reigns at all, even though his music played at the end, and that was that. This may have been the most fun that I’ve had watching WWE in a long time, and it was definitely worth checking out again. I just wish my stream wasn’t lagging and skipping, which is a constant issue I’m seeing with the WWE network on the iPhone.

WWE Monday Night Raw Review

Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss, Nia Jax, Alicia Fox and Emma def. Bayley, Sasha Banks, Mickie James and Dana Brooke

The opening had Alexa Bliss talking about how she’s awesome, which prompted a brawl, and a tag match. The match was ok, with the heels getting the big win, and once again I have to ask, why is Sasha Banks The Boss? What makes her a boss? She is constantly losing, and getting PWNED. Oh well.

Luke Gallows def. Enzo Amore

Enzo can wrestle! Great overall match in my view, it’s just that the Club Sandwich boys have already wrestled Enzo and Cass a ton of times. This is starting to wear thin, to be honest.

Dean Ambrose organized an Intercontinental Championship No. 1 Contender’s Match

Dean Ambrose, through the night was playing funny guy. He set up a triple threat to see who would challenge for his title. This was ludicrous considering that the Universal Title is not going to get defended for months. Both Finn Balor and Seth Rollins want the Universal Title, and yet they can’t go for it. Meanwhile The Miz has already battled Dean Ambrose a million times, so we are going to get it again? I hate this.

Gentleman Jack Gallagher, Rich Swann and Akira Tozawa def. The Brian Kendrick, Noam Dar and Tony Nese

A fun overall match, with no real momentum going forward. This worked for what it was, but I don’t think that isolating the cruiserweights is a good thing for long term wrestling.

Raw Tag Team Champions The Hardy Boyz confronted Cesaro and Sheamus

The Hardy Boyz beat up Cesaro and Sheamus, and that’s it.

Apollo Crews def. Heath Slater

Slater gets buried, simple as that.

Austin Aries def. TJP

This was ok, I guess, I am starting to sour on both of these guys, and this match was definitely a good reason to do so. I’m honestly getting tired of the WWE treatment of the cruiserweights.

The Miz def. Seth Rollins and Finn Bálor to become No. 1 contender to the Intercontinental Championship

This was a stellar match, with a lot of back and forth. Again, Rollins seems to have forgotten that his knee hurts. He kept going in and out of character and forgetting that his knee hurts overall. Seth Rollins and Finn Balor had some great offense in this match, but it was Bray Wyatt and Samoa Joe were the wild cards. They went in and mess up the match overall. The Miz got the win thanks to inference. Looks like Miz came to play.

Not a great Raw, not a terrible one, but honestly, there’s a lot of missed opportunities. For instance, where was Brown Shoeman? No Brock aka the Universal Champion, and no single’s match for the women.

Raw was ok at best.

WWE Monday Night Raw 12/14/2015 The Roman Empire On Top

Roman Reigns Is Your New Champion - SRC WWE.com

I have to admit, I fell asleep at several points in this week’s Hulu version of Raw. There was a lot of talking starting out, but watching Stephanie McMahon slap the living hell out of Roman Reigns was great. When Vince McMahon kicked Roman in the nuts, I woke up again. I managed to stay through a few things here and there, but overall, honestly, the biggest things coming out of Raw really aren’t that big at all, except for Roman Reigns.

Hulu’s edition seemed to drag on. I can’t imagine the 3 hour edition, as this was not going well for entertainment value on my end. Here are a few notes that I want to point out, for you 2 readers that are still reading this diatribe.

“Why Did Kevin Owens attack Ziggler?” – Michael Cole

What the hell Cole? Do you not even know the rules of wrestling? Why would Kevin Owens attack Ziggler? Because it would cost Ambrose the match! That goes back to the 1980s heel moves! Idiots. Fire Cole, please.

The Wyatt Family Are An Extreme Threat

The Dudley Boyz losing yet again was odd. I guess the Wyatt family finally is a threat? That’s the end of the former ECW guys, I think. Good match though, great flow, good extreme moments, and overall a classic in my view.

The Divas Revolution Is Done

That divas match was short, terrible, and just boring. So much for that Divas Revolution.

Roman Reigns defeated Sheamus for the WWE title!

Overall, Raw was boring for me. However, the final was good, even though it wasn’t a long match like last night. McMahon getting knocked out with a Superman punch, and Sheamus losing to Reigns was definitely a great thing. Roman Reigns and the Roman Empire are now a thing. I liked it. I don’t know what’s next, but chances are Brock Lesnar is waiting for the rematch from Mania, that is after Triple H gets the loss against him at the Rumble etc.

WWE Main Event 12/1/2015 Results A Lot of Wrestling

WWE Main Event Logo - Source WWE.com 

Since the WWE didn't really put up a lot of information on their website about this show, I am not going to review it in full. I can say this much, it was a fun show with a lot of wrestling into a small amount of time. If you're following along, here are the results for WWE Main Event from 12/1/2015.

The Miz defeated Dolph Ziggler
Sasha Banks defeated Alicia Fox
Titus Oneil defeated Stardust
Ryback defeated Bo Dallas

The best match was Titus Oneil mopping the floor with Stardust. Great overall showing from those two. Oh, The Miz wrestled a fine match too. Ziggler lost, but The Miz was impressive. He's got some moves, I admit it.

WWE Superstars 2/10/11 Results and Review

Looks like a few friends came through, and I finally get to watch the Thursday wrestling shows. This should be great, for the blog, not necessarily for me and you, because as we know, Thursday night wrestling isn't exactly 4 or 5 stars.

WWE Superstars 2/10/11 Review

I was hoping that we'd get another classic here, since the divas are sometimes given some better matches on the Thursday show, but that wasn't the case here. Natalya was impressive here, but things weren't without mistakes. Natalya botched a few power moves and Alicia Fox flubbed a few spots as well. The sharpshooter would eventually give the former divas champion the win. Not a terrible match, but not necessarily a great one.

Natalya defeated Alicia Fox

If you missed Raw you got a crash course at this point as a full recap of the main event and the rest of the show was highlighted here.

Up next the Usos were completley buried by The Great Khali. Khali beat up both men and then just danced for the crowd.

The Great Khali defeated The Usos

Curt Hawkins and TYler Reks put on a watchable match. Reks is a monster, and Hawkins can at least bump. This wasn't anything too special, but there were some nice moments including the finisher from Reks. They're calling it the "Burning Hammer". Hawkins was essentially buried here.

Tyler Reks defeated Curt Hawkins

I'll be one of the only idiots that will say this, Triple H's new movie isn't nearly as bad as some of the other films I've seen in my life...doesn't anyone remember "Suburban COmmando"?

Jack Swagger came out next and took on one of the Dudebusters, and while the two put on an interesting show, the crowd was dead and no one cared. Swagger got the win, in impressive form, but like I said, no one cared.

Jack Swagger defeated Trent Barretta

Overall Superstars is NOT anything you want to watch on a Thursday. I am glad I missed the past two weeks, as this show is really not as good as the WWE once thought it would be. There are very few major stars on it, there aren't a lot of great match ups, and it's just another wasted hour of wrestling programming. I truly hope they can make the show stand out somehow, otherwise, it's just wasting everyone's time.

Primo, Darren Young, DH Smith, and Yoshi Tatsu defeated The Usos, William Regal, and Zack Ryder

WWE Superstars 1/13/10 Review

Chris Masters & JTG defeated Chavo Guerrero & Curt Hawkins

If I saw this match live, I would mark out huge, but on tv? This is not a great match to watch. IT had a lot of slow downs and not too much action. JTG was able to liven up the mood, and Hawkins can bump, but Masters and Chavo made this one slower than I'd like it to be. The match would eventually end with realitive ease from Masters.

Gail Kim defeated Alicia Fox

This was the most exciting divas match I've seen in a long time. There were a few major hits, but it was all Gail Kim in this one. I loved it. Her missile drop kick is picture perfect and I'm amazed that the divas don't get more quality matches like this. Gail Kim wins, and that's the end of that.

Primo, Darren Young, DH Smith, and Yoshi Tatsu defeated The Usos, William Regal, and Zack Ryder

This match wasn't half bad, it had a lot of back and forth action, a lot of quick tags, and quality moments to watch. The match went for a good amount of time, and it was interesting to see this unfold. After a good amount of time, the ring cleared and left Zack Ryder and Yoshi Tatsu alone in the ring, which would end in predictable fashion...Tatsu knocks out Ryder and that is the end of that.

Daniel Bryan defeated William Regal
Santino & Tamina defeated Ted Dibiase & Maryse
John Cena defeated Dolph Ziggler
Jerry Lawler, Randy Orton, and John Morrison defeated The Miz, Alex Riley & Sheamus

WWE Monday Night Raw 12/20/10 Review

One night after WWE TLC 2010 we get Monday Night Raw, and The King said it best: We are here around Christmas and we start the show with The Grinch. Yep. The Miz was getting booed out of the building, and for anyone that saw the show last night, you know why The Miz is really hated right now.

The Miz got into the ring and started talking trash and what not. He kept rambling when the lights went out and Alex Riley came out as the "Ghost of Christmas Past"...I kid you not.

Michael Cole came out as another ghost...I kid you not. They were doing A Christmas Carol. I couldn't believe this. I liked the Muppet one though.

John Morrison came out and confronted the Miz. That's right, John Morrison came out and talkd to the Miz. He wasn't half bad, and the crowd was fully behind John Morrison. Alex Riley got into Morrison's face and got punched out for his action. Sheamus then ran down and beat up Morrison, and Riley got punched out by Jerry Lawler! Punk was in the booth, by the way.

I absolutely loved the psychology of Sheamus kicking Morrison in the knee, and was a nice touch to throwback to last night. I loved how The Miz, after last night's championship defense, had to wrestle tonight.

Melina defeated Alicia Fox and Eve

This match was atrocious. This match was seriously one of the worst matches I've seen in a long time. They can't wrestle, and it was painfully obvious throughout. This was sad, considering last night I was marking out huge for the divas table match. Alicia Fox nearly killed Melina with a powerbomb in the corner of the ring. Eve managed to get some offense in and nearly kicked Alicia Fox's head off. A standing moonsault was hit, which should've got the win for Eve. Eve dove off the top rope, while Melina rolled up Alicia Fox to get the win. The finish was well done, but the rest of the match was nothing to remember, that's for sure.

Post match, Melina slapped the heck out of Natalya and it looked like it hurt.

Daniel Bryan defeated William Regal

I was shocked to see a pur wrestling match on Raw. Daniel Bryan was facing off with William Regal and there was some nice counters and mat wrestling here. It wasn't your standard Daniel Bryan match as Regal had his number for a good portion of this match up. At one point during this bout, Regal and Bryan exchanged a series of European Uppercuts which was impressive to say the least. Neither man could get the upper hand but eventually Bryan hooked in his crossface lock and Regal tapped. This was one of the better matches I've seen on Raw, and defeats one of the better mat technicians still going today.

Santino & Tamina defeated Ted Dibiase & Maryse

Dibiase and Santino did most of this match up and it wasn't half bad. Dibiase was ahead of the game, but Santino was able to set up a few moves and eventually was going for the Cobra but stopped short of hitting Maryse. Tamina gave Maryse a superkick and then went to the top rope and you guessed it, she shit a nice throwback, Superfly Splash in tribute of Jimmy Superfly Snuka and won the match! A good entertaining match up with some nice moves, but mostly a throwaway affair. It was entertaining though, I liked it, for a change.

John Cena was completely over with a Texas crowd. THis was seriously the loudest Cena crowd that I've seen in a long time, and why not? I guess we'll have to just deal with it.

Vickie Guerrero, of all people came down to the ring. Vickie was getting completely booed out of the building whenever she tried to talk. The crowd was completely going nuts with the "you suck" chants, and it was amazing. The crowd was just so amazed at this. Vickie wanted Jerry Lawler to give her an apology from last week. Lawler and Cena exchanged jokes about Vickie Guerrero's weight and it was hilarious, although a bit cheesy.

The general manager chimed in, and I was marking out huge for the possibilities of a Dolph Ziggler vs John Cena title match. But there was not title on the line, but heck, I was marking out huge for this one. I guess I'm having a good day or something because up to this point I was marking out huge for Monday Night Raw.

John Cena defeated Dolph Ziggler

Dolph Ziggler started this match really hot, stomping out Cena with every other move. He was doing some great work in ring, but Cena was finding ways to stop the onslaught of offense. John Cena pushed forward and the crowd was 100% behind him. Cena hit a nice Fisherman's Suplex and I was watching a new livelier Cena here, alongside a smart Dolph Ziggler, who was ducking and diving the traditional Cena offense. The two went back and forth with some high flying offense, some nice rest spots, and overall an entertaining match up that led to Ziggler countering the Attitude Adjustment at one point, and Cena blocking the Sleeper Hold in another. Ziggler hit a nice sideslam, and this match was getting hotter than a lot of matches out of the Raw year. Ziggler's dropkick to the jaw of Cena toward the end of this match was picture perfect, and I once again am saying that given the right opportunity, Ziggler can move to the main event with ease. Cena was not a one trick pony here, he hit his moves, but also was wise enough to counter some moves, and the crowd ate it up. The STF was locked in and Ziggler tapped but Vickie provided the distraction, which allowed ZIggler to hit the Zig Zag on Cena and nearly pinned Cena for the 3 count! I was going nuts at this point, you were going nuts if you watched this match, and these two were putting on a show. Dolph Ziggler took the padding off the corner of the ring, and grabbed the Intercontinental Belt but was no match for the attitude adjustment, and Cena went completely nuts as Cena took out the champion, which was just a compelling match up. 3 Stars easily.

Post match, CM Punk left the broadcast booth and hit John Cena with a chair and walked away. That's right, Punk struck against Cena, and walkd away. Is CM Punk ready to compete? I don't know, but it was interesting to say the least.

Dolph Ziggler challenged John Cena to a rematch on Smackdown tomorrow and Vickie threw herself into the match. Yep.

Jerry Lawler, Randy Orton, and John Morrison defeated The Miz, Alex Riley & Sheamus

This match started fast and furious, and I enjoyed it. The Miz played up his scared persona, and Sheamus eventually got the green light to go into the match. Lawler was the weak link here, with the monster heels mopping up the king with relative ease. Lawler would get a comeback and eventually tag in Morrison to get the sides even up. Sheamus and Morrison really work well together, and Alex Riley was just getting punished. Sheamus focused on the knee of Morrison and The Miz eventually came in and fought the weakened #1 contender. Towards the end, Randy Orton got the tag and he started unleashing on The MIz. He hit his DDT, He was on a roll and it looked like this one was over, but it wasn't mean to be just yet. Morrison took care of Sheamus, Lawler was out, Miz managed to get the upper hand after Riley took an RKO. Lawler got the tag and unleashed on Miz, and Orton hit an RKO on MIZ which let JERRY LAWLER GET THE PIN ON THE MIZ! I MARKED OUT HUGE! Lawler pinned The Miz!!! I kid you not! The Miz was pinned and all was said and done!

They plugged WWE Smackdown, and added a match for Smackdown. The Miz would wrestle Randy Orton!

A great Raw overall. There were a lot of good matches here, and some quality wrestling. WWE really tried hard to make this night a good one. I loved it, you probably liked it, and it was a nice piece of wrestling for a change.

Ok folks, if you're reading this please do me a favor and check out Amazon.com here and purchase something, your purchase will help this blog keep going, and maybe even let me get internet access at home so I'm not marking out huge at the library. I'll be back for more reviews, posts and what not tomorrow, for Smackdown!

The Miz defeated Randy Orton

WWE Monday Night Raw 11/22/10 Review

One night after Survivor Series, and we get this night of Raw...after Survivor Series, I was completely left dumbfounded, and could only imagine what was going to go down...so here it goes, how it happened:

Nexus was in ring talking trash. The imaginary general manager chimed in, and wanted to talk, and he said that Wade Barrett will face off against Randy Orton for the WWE title....TONIGHT!

Wade Barrett said that he will allow John Cena to come back to Raw tonight.

Next week will be the King of The Ring tournament. Cm Punk was on the color commentary tonight and it was great, Punk on the mic and on the headset is amazing.

Sheamus defeated R Truth

Sheamus was aggressive and made the pace of this match really good, and it wasn't half bad. Sheamus is a massive guy and it showed when he wrestled a much leaner R Truth. Truth hit some nice spots, and top rope hits, but it was the HIGH CROSS that hit Truth into the mat and he lost this one. Sheamus moves on to the King of the Ring tournament. This was no burial, there were some nice spots here, and both men put on a good amount of offensive before it was all said and done.

Ezekiel Jackson defeated Alex Riley

Riley got squashed completely, and Jackson wins with ease. I don't care.

John Cena gave his last speech and the crowd was completely split in half. It was completely uproarious, and that was that. I guess Cena is officially out for now. I don't know why.

Daniel Bryan defeated Ted Dibiase

This match was good again, and Bryan proved yet again that he has what it takes to be in WWE. This wasn't as good as last night, but it still had a good amount of impact. He will now qualify for the King of the RIng tournament, and now the Bella Twins are all over Bryan...lucky, lucky dude.

Natalya defeated Alicia Fox

Terrible match, but I guess that's expected.

Morrison defeated Tyson Kidd

Kidd sucks. Morrison breezed through this one, and that was that. Not much here.

Randy Orton was headed out to the ring for his match and Nexus attacked him. They beat him up completely, and left him for dead! That's right, Nexus was completely dominant here, ambushing Orton. No one came to his rescue either, the ref's forced Nexus back, but the damage was done.

Randy Orton defeated Wade Barrett

Orton came out for this match and his knee was hurt, and it showed. Barrett cruised through the majority of this match and Orton looked like he was completely lost here. Wade nearly had this won, but out of the crowd ran JOHN CENA, beat up Wade Barett and ORTON WON THE MATCH! ORTON WINS!

The crowd was all over this match, and the run in was awesome. Orton defeats Wade Barrett again, and I'm left wondering who is left to challenge for the WWE title, but whatever...what a good overall match up.

Then we heard...none other than....

AWESOME! I CAME TO PLAY! HE CASHED IN THE MONEY IN THE BANK BRIEFCASE!!!!

THE MIZ defeated Randy Orton

I marked out huge, I was going completely nuts for this. Alex Riley was at ring side. Orton was attacking Orton right away, and this thing was taking off! I was marking out huge! THE RKO seemed easy and it was nearly hit but NO, THE SKULL CRUSHING FINALE was hiT and THE MIZ WINS! THE MIZ IS THE NEW WWE CHAMPION! THE MIZ THE MIZ THE MIZ AWESOME!

BEST RAW ENDING EVER!

THE MIZ WINS! THE MIZ THE MIZ!

AWESOME! I CAME TO PLAY! Wow!

Yoshi defeated Primo Colon
Melina & Gail Kim defeated Alicia Fox & Maryse

WWE Superstars 11/18/10 Review

Chavo defeated JTG

JTG needs big Shad to make his gimmick work, because a solo "gangsta" just seems odd. In fact, WWE should call up New Jack and have him manage the team of JTG and Shad as the "Gangstas" but that's just a quick idea, it probably won't go anywhere. Chavo and JTG put on an ok job, but not necessarily a great one. There were a few good spots, but overall, it wasn't exactly an all star classic.

Trent Barretta defeated CUrt Hawkins

This match was a quick paced, high offense match up. Trent was flying through spots, while Hawkins tried to slow down the pace. This match was just plain, nothing too exciting. It had enough nice spots, but overall, it just seem tired to me.

Yoshi defeated Primo Colon

Primo and Yoshi put together a halfway decent match up, and it was cool to hear the new commentator with CM Punk on color commentary. The match eventually ended with Yoshi picking up the win.

Melina & Gail Kim defeated Alicia Fox & Maryse

A longer divas match than in recent months, but that doesn't make it that much better. There were a few good spots, but nothing to really write home about. I enjoyed it enough, and the good girls get the win. Gail Kim and Melina get the win.

This show was definitely the "C" show, as it wasn't all that great, but it did offer some good spots here and there. All eyes are on Survivor Series and whether or not John Cena will turn heel.

Jack Swagger defeated Kaval
Luke Gallows defeated Vance Archer
Gail Kim defeated Alicia Fox
The Usos defeated Mark Henry

WWE Superstars 11/4/10 Review

THe C show for WWE came through again, and some people might say that it's the best show WWE puts out on a weekly basis. but I'm not one of those people.

Jack Swagger defeated Kaval

This match was quite good. Kaval took another beating, and it looked bad. This was not an easy match for Kaval, and it showed. Swagger wasn't completely rolling through this match either, he wasn't just squashing the much smaller man. We saw a lot of throws, a lot of suplexes, and a lot of action from Kaval. The two threw together quite the competitive match up, and it's interesting to see pure-wrestling on a wwe show. I enjoyed this one and was impressed with Kaval in this match up as he put together some new pinning combinations that you haven't seen in a long time. The soaring Eagle interfered, and Kaval tapped to the Ankle Lock, and that's the end of that. A great match, but The All American American American won this hard fighting match up. One of the better matches that I've seen in a long time.

Luke Gallows defeated Vance Archer

THis match was your average big man match, and Luke Gallows won, with relative ease.

Gail Kim defeated Alicia Fox

This was an ok divas match, much better than a lot of other matches I've seen from the Divas. Gail can really go, if they let them, and this match showcased that. Alicia Fox loses and that's the end of that.

The Usos defeated Mark Henry

Mark Henry lost to two guys. That was that. It was a handicap match, and that's that. I don't know what else to say. It was barely watchable.

WWE Monday Night Raw 10/18/10 Review

Teddy Long came out and introduced the trophy for Bragging Rights and whatever. Michael Cole got onto the general manager's computer and told Teddy Long to leave or else...but Teddy Long went to the podium and disconnected the RAW GENERAL MANAGER! Yep.

Ezekiel Jackson returned...both teams from Bragging Rights were fighting in the middle of the ring! Just a huge brawl here. Nothing too crazy, I liked it enough.

Drew McIntyre & Cody Rhodes defeated The Hart Dynasty

Once again, the tag team champions prevail, with a great amount of offense involved. The Hart Dynasty looked to not be on the same page, and that's what cost them the match. Nothing too crazy here, average tag match, with a few good spots, and once again, another team splits up...showcasing the lack of real tag teams in the WWE.

Goldust got beat up by Ted Dibiase, but FINAL CUT was hit, and Ted Dibiase was laid out cold! I love the push, I'm hoping the push continues as Goldust is now getting the "spotlight"!

Randy Orton & John Cena defeated Husky Harris & Michael McGullicutty

There's nothing like a good burial, huh? The top faces on Raw beat up the new comers to the NXT crew, and this match was just that..a burial. I liked it enough, with the standard power moves here and there, Orton getting the RKO, Cena hitting the Attitude Adjustment and that's about it.

Post match, Nexus came out and Orton was targeted and beat up as Cena watched.

Vickie Guerrero came out with Dolph Ziggler, but that only prompted Daniel Bryan to come out and challenge Ziggler to a match against Daniel Bryan at Bragging Rights!!!!

It could be a 4 star classic folks!

The two brawled and that was awesome.

Vickie Guerrero was humiliated by the divas, which was funny, then Daniel Bryan was invited to have a dance party in the ring, and well that was that.

Natalya defeated Alicia Fox

Once again, Natalya wins an easy match. There's nothing to note here. It was lame.

Big Show vs The Miz

The Big Show fought The Miz here, and it was a squash match to say the least and it was a non finish...until....

Teddy Long came out and declared the match a Smackdown vs Raw Battle Royal!

Team Smackdown defeated Team Raw in a Battle Royal

This was a fun little match and it was a Smackdown win, that's about it.

The show was fast paced, and went by way too fast for me. I don't even remember much of it, other than Edge and Big Show at the end of the show standing tall. Not bad I guess. We'll see what the ppv will bring us, that's for sure.

WWE Superstars 10/14/10 Review

Kelly Kelly defeated Layla

This match was ok at best. It wasn't a terrible match, and it wasn't a complete mess, but it wasn't great either. Kelly Kelly has definitely improved with her timing, and Layla is entertaining as ever. Natalya's dress was arousal inducing, for sure, but the match was ok. Lots of safe offense, nothing too crazy, and watchable. Kelly Kelly got the win with a roll up and that's that.

The New Big Show Movie looks funny.

Curt Hawkins defeated Trent Barreta

This match was your standard jobbers match, if you ask me (which you didn't), and it wasn't half bad. Curt Hawkins has a little "it" factor, and his music isn't half bad. He seems like the second coming of Edge and I think he can really be something, especially with that excellent "heat seeking elbow" which is the best elbow I've seen in a while. I'm not sure if he'll get anything in the form of main event push in the near future, but I liked the match enough.

Darren Young defeated Primo

I can't believe that Darren Young is doing so well. This match was back and forth and wasn't half bad. Darren Young was really pushing forward and he has a lot of great timing, and Primo's no slouch either. I loved the ending too, Darren Young has a nice full-nelson face plant finisher which was definitely a positive thing. Darren Young could end up being one of the better rookies, especially if they keep giving him opportunities like this. I'll even stop calling him the BLack John Cena if he keeps it up.

Melina defeated Alicia Fox

This match was ok, nothing too insane here. Both women botched moves, and both women had some highlights, but it wasn't anything too amazing. Watch the show in HD really made the diva's look nasty, especially with a LOT of make up on. Melina took some nice bumps, and her roll up bridge was impressive. I didn't hate this match, which is a plus, and of course Melina wins.

Overall, not a terrible night of wrestling. I liked the Darren Young match, and can see him as a viable competitor for WWE. I hope they give him something more than just bland "Black John Cena" stuff, but if not, oh well. As for the rest of the show? It was ok at best.

If you haven't already done so, I highly suggest ordering the Chris Jericho dvd set, it's seriously good.

WWE Monday Night Raw 10/4/10 Review

One night after Cena joins Nexus, that's all people can talk about, or rather I can think about. I don't really care for a lot of other things going on in WWE, but that is kind of interesting. So even though I am tired, I'm going to speak on this...as Konnan would say.

Nexus in the ring start the show talking about last night. They say that Michael McGullicutty and Husky Harris are the two that interfered in the match, and that Wade Barrett did NOT ask for their help.

Nexus joined Nexus, and read a written statement to the crowd about it.

Evan Bourne & Mark Henry defeated Michael Tarver & John Cena

This match was 90% Henry and Bourne beating up Michael Tarver. despite Tarver being in Nexus, fans were cheering. Tarver was going to tag Cena, but Cena jumped off the apron and pulled out a sharpie and started to sign autographs! That left Tarver in ring with Henry and that was that. Tarver getes killed, and Cena gave people autographs, and lost the match. This was an interesting development, and the match was passable. Tarver has some nice moves, he's vastly improved since NXT.

Post match, John Cena got on the mic. He said that he is going to break up Nexus from within. Which is kind of dumb...but I guess it can work. Michael Tarver was then attacked by Cena.

John Cena was then messaged by the GM and was told that he had to work with Nexus or he'd be fired.

Natalya defeated Alicia Fox

This was a short match with Natalya winning with a sharpshooter. Yep, that's it.

Backstage Cena chased after Husky and Michael...and then ran into Nexus...they were going to "talk".

Daniel Bryan defeated Sheamus via DQ

They buried Daniel Bryan. If Sheamus had such a "hard" match last night, how can he be so aggressive against Bryan? Last night Orton buried Sheamus, and now Daniel Bryan is being buried by Sheamus. Lame. Sheamus sucks.

Edge was supposed to apologize to the Raw GM, but The Miz came out and beat him up. Oh and, Edge is going to Smackdown.

The Bellas defeated Laycool

The worst match I've seen in a long time. I hated it. Worst match ever.

Goldust was the one sending notes...and he wants the Million Dollar championship! He's now in a major angle on RAW!

Wade Barrett won a Raw Battle Royal for the #1 Contendership

This match was your standard battle royal with one thing left out...the fact that John Cena was told to eliminate himself and he did. That was the end of this match. Yep. Cena quit, like a chump.
