WWE Monday Night Raw 11/15/10 Review

The night was supposed to be a special 3 hour "Old School" broadcast. It had a cool opening, and everything in the arena looked "old school", which is quite cool. I was actually a bit excited for this night of wrestling.

Mean Gene Okerlund was introduced and he was on the "interview" stand.

Cowboy Bob Orton was introduced and interviewed...not half bad. They set up a match, but I was distracted.

Dolph Ziggler defeated Sexual Chocolate Mark Henry

This match wasn't half bad, Mark Henry put on a good match because he was being carried by Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler won after implementing his sleeper on Henry.

Justin Gabriel & Heath Slater defeated The Hart Dynasty

DH Smith was the main man in this match, getting the better of Nexus at first, but after the Nexus came back for their second wind, Tyson Kidd turned on Smith and that was that. DH Smith got kicked in the face and that was that.

Orton said he was going to punt Cena tonight.

THE FINK was the next in ring announcer! FINKEL's BACK!

The Brooklyn Brawler & Harvey Wippleman came out next. He issued an open challenge to anyone in the "new school".

Ezekiel Jackson defeated The Brooklyn Brawler

Brawler lost a squash, Jackson wins.

John Cena defeated Alex Riley

Alex Riley took the place of The Miz in a match against cena. I got distracted by The Simpsons "Treasure Trove" #2 and missed the finish, but I'm sure it was the five moves of doom and a win for Cena. Alex Riley did ok, but he got buried, as is the custom for Cena. Miz came into the ring...and they brawled after the match

Post match, Cena and Orton started fighting and out came the ref's to try and stop them. This is a sure sign of a Heel turn, if you ask me. The same thing happened in 1997 weeks before Summerslam, where Shawn Michaels turned heel.

It was announced that Orton and Cena would be on Piper's Pit later tonight.

The Iron Shiek and Nikolai Volkoff were in the ring, and Fink asked the crowd to rise for national anthem.

The singing prompted Kozlov and Santino to show up. I will say it again, the SANTINO shirt is awesome! More on that later.

Kozlov and Volkoff tried to sing the Russian national anthem as a duet, but Santino changed up the song. He introduced none other than SLICK! The reverend SLICK! The segment was stopped by THe Uso brothers. The next match would be a #1 contenders match, with none other than JIMMY SUPERFLY SNUKA!

Kozlov and Santino defeated The Usos w/ Jimmy Snuka

This match was ok at best. Kozlov did a lot of the heavy lifting, and Santino was the one that got the pinfall after he hit the Cobra. I didn't hate the match, and Santino has been moving forward, that is until out came Sheamus.

Post match, Sheamus hit the bro kick on the Usos and Kozlov, but was then taken out by John Morrison.

I like the Nexus zip up hoodie, I might have to pick one up.

I was under the impression that R Truth was going to get fed to Otunga, but instead here comes KOFI KINGSTON! I guess that's what happens when I take bathroom breaks during Raw.

Kofi Kingston defeated David Otunga

This match was going good for David Otunga and mid-match, out came George "The Animal" Steele and he at the turnbuckle. Then Kingston hit Trouble in Paradise after utilizing the exposed ring post, and won the match. Not a great match, but everyone should enjoy seeing Otunga on the losing end of things.

The Million Dollar Belt was returned to The original Million Dollar Man and then was given to Ted Dibiase Jr backstage...but Jr said to keep it. Lots of jabs between Cody Rhodes, Dustin Rhodes, Dusty Rhodes, IRS and Kelly Kelly...yep. OH and TATANKA came out too! Oh and Hacksaw too! They had a backstage party and then..RON SIMMONS....DAMN!

Wade Barrett defeated R Truth

This was an easy match, Wade won without much troubles. Sure, Truth didn't get buried or squashed, but it was just the same to me.

Alberto Del Rio was introduced by Tito Santana and he was escorted out by CHAVO CLASSIC.

Alberto Del Rio defeated Sgt. Slaughter

Slaughter slapped on the Cobra Clutch and that got a huge pop, and I admit, I was marking out huge for that. Del Rio of course, would not get squashed by Sgt. Slaughter, but the match was a nice touch of old schoo meets new school. The Cobra Clutch got slapped on mid match again and that prompted some nice cheers, but it was not meant to be as Del Rio swewed up this match up with a kick to the back of the head.

Mae Young defeated Laycool in a falls count anywhere match

Laycool got on the mic and made fun of Mae Young, but that prompted Mae Young to ask for a match. The match happened and the divas beat up Laycool and let Mae Young get some nice hits in! MAE YOUNG with the help from the divas beat up Laycool!

JIM ROSS was called in for commentary during the next match up! YES! JIM THE MAN ROSS! THAT'S RIGHT! JIM ROSS IS BACK ON COMMENTARY AT LEAST FOR ONE MATCH! YES! JR GOOD OL JR! YES YES YES! JIM FREAKIN ROSS! HE'S BACK!

Michael Cole heeled it up...I hate Michael Cole he sucks I hate him...ugh. I feel like a teenager.

Daniel Bryan defeated Jack Swagger

Match of the year candidate on paper, that's right folks, I marked out huge when Jack The All American, American, American, American, American Swagger.

Just hearing JR call this match, made the match that much better and it was definitely some of the best wrestling I've seen in a long time from WWE. Swagger shut down Bryan's fast paced offense, and Bryan just kept trying to get shots in. The match spilled out to the ring, and this was definitely feeling old school. Swagger took a stiff shot to the face with a missile dropkick from Bryan. I kid you not, Bryan's Missile Dropkick nearly took Swagger's head off, and it was awesome. Cole kept jumpin in and sucked it up, I hated it. Swagger couldn't put away Bryan, and kept trying to fight, but it wasn't helping. Bryan Daniel won with a HUGE kick to the head, knocking out Swagger cold!

Post match, Ted Dibiase Jr hit Dream Street on Daniel Bryan. Now Daniel Bryan has a new challenger to his United States title! This feud has legs, and if the WWE continues to book things like this, the belts will once again mean something, and that's the great thing to the feud's potential.

I swear, Michael Cole needs to get fired. I'd rather have Tony Shciavone come back, I'd rather have TAZ and Mike Tenay than MICHAEL COLE, cause he sucks. UGH! Michael Cole is the worst announcer ever.

Hot Rod Rowdy Roddy Piper came out and started Piper's Pit, and man, no one can talk like the Hot Rod. I absolutely love Hot Rod, he's the man. His guests of course were John Cena and Randy Orton.

Wade Barrett came out and got on the mic before Orton ever came out, and Cena was told that he'd get fired if Barrett didn't win. Barrett forced Cena to wear the Nexus t-shirt!!!

Orton eventually made his way down to the ring, but it was an afterthought. Orton threatened John Cena but instead of fighting Cena, he fought Wade Barrett! Cena got in front of Wade Barrett before Orton could hit the RKO! Then Cena got hit with a HUGE RKO!

Cena was about to get punted but Orton hit the Attitude Adjustment on ORTON!

CAN CENA TURN HEEL! The last shot of the show was Barrett and Cena confident over a fallen Randy Orton...but alas, Barrett got an AA for his troubles and Cena threw his Nexus shirt at Barrett!

I'm not sure what the WWE has planned, and that's the good thing here. I'm actually intrigued about the possibilities that will arise this weekend! OH MAN! OH MAN!

I'm excited for once about WWE PPV and you should be too. Best Raw ever? I don't know, but it was dang good!

WWE Monday Night Raw 11/8/10 Results and Review

WWE Monday Night Raw 11/8/10 Results

The Bellas & Eve defeated The Other Divas
The Usos defeated The Hart Dynasty
Goldust defeated Ted Dibiase
John Cena defeated David Otunga
Sheamus vs. Santino (no contest)
Nexus defeated Team Raw w/ John Cena as a special guest referee

WWE Monday Night Raw 11/8/10 Review

The night opened up with John Cena reading some sort of declaration. Then Wade Barrett and the rest of the Nexus showed up and Wade Barrett talked to David Otunga about Smackdown's loss.

The Bellas & Eve defeated The Other Divas

This was the WORST match ever. This was stupid...I hated it. I hated it completely and so did everyone watching. I don't even know what happened, I just know that the Bellas won...and it was lame.

The Usos defeated The Hart Dynasty

Once again we see this match, and once again the Hart's lose. This sucks...once again I hated it.

Goldust defeated Ted Dibiase

This match wasn't all that great, but I found it more entertaining than the ppv match up. Goldust won the match and Oksana stole the Million Dollar Belt. This was just weird....the whole thing is odd.

John Cena defeated David Otunga

Not exactly a great match, but seeing David Otunga get beat up was cool. JOhn Cena basically buried Otunga, and rightfully so, I liked it.

They had, Tea Time with Santino and it was lame. Ugh. Kozlov and Santino invited Sheamus to the ring and they chatted, until a match was made with Sheamus and Santino.

Sheamus vs. Santino (no contest)

John Morrison saved Santino from further beatings. The match never really ended. Santino was dead. Morrison saves Santino, that's all that happened. OH right,

Santino didn't even have a chance.

Nexus defeated Team Raw w/ John Cena as a special guest referee

This match was entertaining enough, and it featured all the major components of Raw. Nexus however got the win with a little help from the Miz. That was that. I didn't hate this match, but I don't really care about the storyline anymore. I just am tired, maybe that's it. I don't know, it wasn't a great raw, but it wasn't the worst raw ever either.

Nexus defeated The Hart Dynasty
Sheamus defeated Kozlov
Ezekiel defeated Zack Ryder
The Big Show defeated The Miz
Daniel Bryan defeated Ted Dibiase
Natalya defeated Laycool
Randy Orton & R Truth defeated David Otunga & Wade Barrett

WWE Monday Night Raw 11/1/10 Review

RAW this week started the show with a promo....ugh...I absolutely hate ORTON on the mic, he sucks. Cena came down to the ring and asked Orton to cut him some slack. Cena said that he can't necessarily call it down the middle, telegraphing a heel turn! I hope Cena turns heel, I'm hoping against hope.

Nexus defeated The Hart Dynasty

THis match wasn't all that great, it was boring. Nexus won this match, and The Hart Dynasty once again are teasing a split. I'm tired of the tag team division, which is sad. I'm already not enjoying the night of wrestling.

THE NEW SANTINO SHIRT IS AMAZING!

Sheamus came out and cut a promo, and Santino came out as well. Santino cut a funny promo, which was great.

Sheamus defeated Kozlov

This match was slow and boring. Sheamus won with the "bro" kick...this match was dumb, but Santino's new shirt is rad.

Morrison saved Santino from getting beat.

Ezekiel defeated Zack Ryder

THis match was stupid. Zack should move to TNA and feud with Robbie E.

The Big Show defeated The Miz

Miz got himself disqualified, and I was too tired to care.

Daniel Bryan defeated Ted Dibiase

This was a quick match and Ted Dibiase tapped out to Bryan. This wasn't a terrible match, but it wasn't as good as previous efforts. I am glad to see Daniel Bryan getting wins and hope he gets more competition.

Natalya defeated Laycool

This match was ok at best. It was fast, and Natalya won after a roll up. I guess Natalya now gets a title shot.

Freddie Prince Jr. was playing a doctor, and McMahon was out cold. The segments continued and McMahon wanted to run for President, but then Stephanie woke up and it looked like a dream.

Uh...I don't know what the whole point of the segments were, but I guess there's an election going on right now or someday? who cares!?!?

Randy Orton & R Truth defeated David Otunga & Wade Barrett

This match was entertaining, and I enjoyed it for the most part. John CEna served as the ref and counted the three count. This was the most interesting part of the story so far.

Raw left us with the question of Cena being impartial. I think we're reliving Summerslam 97!!! Just wait...in 3 weeks we will see a repeat of that classic main event.

WWE Monday Night Raw 10/18/10 Results

Drew McIntyre & Cody Rhodes defeated The Hart Dynasty
Randy Orton & John Cena defeated Husky Harris & Michael McGullicutty
Natalya defeated Alicia Fox
Team Smackdown defeated Team Raw in a Battle Royal

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 10/7/10 Results

Chris Masters defeated Vance Archer
William Regal defeated Darren Young
The Usos defeated The Hart Dynasty

WWE Superstars 10/7/10 Review

Chris Masters defeated Vance Archer

This match was a lot longer than I would've wanted. The match went on for a while and it was a slow moving, power move filled, rest hold match up. There were some stiff hits here, but overall, this match was basically to help get Archer over. Masters continued to carry a good portion of this match with a well received a comeback. Archer eventually lost via the Master Lock. Yep.

Post match, Hawkins attacked Archer. I guess that means Archer and Hawkins are no longer a team? whatever.

William Regal defeated Darren Young

Darren Young was taken out by Regal, but not a squash in any way. Darren Young showcased that he had a few moves, and the crowd was actually into it. I liked Young's offense, and I liked Regals tactics. Young would eventually lose this one with a stiff kick to the face, and Young looked like he was legit knocked out. Young loses, but he was in there with a very harsh William Regal. I think Darren Young has a real future ahead of him, and I hope he takes out the Nexus...but it probably won't happen.

The Usos defeated The Hart Dynasty

This match was something we've seen a million times before. The Usos finally do what they couldn't do for a long time, and the crowd was into it, which was odd. Unless it was piped in. The Usos won after a big splash and the Hart's once again are on the losing end. Look for them to split and go singles.

THat's the end of the night.

There's a new announcer on Superstars named Scott something...and he didn't do half bad.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 9/17/10 Results

Drew McIntyre & Dashing Cody Rhodes defeated The Hart Dynasty
Kofi Kingston defeated Jack Swagger
Laycool defeated Rosa & Random Diva
CM Punk defeated Christian

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 9/17/10 Review

Christian had a Peep Show with Alberto Del Rio and you know what happened, shenanigans ensued. Whatever...Christian is cool, hopefully they fight in a feud and that's that. Christian will eat the pole, and lose, right? yep.

Drew McIntyre & Dashing Cody Rhodes defeated The Hart Dynasty

Another hot shot tag team. The new guys win this non title match in a good overall match up. I liked it, the two work well as a team, but it's odd to see the tag division treated in such a stupid manner. whataver...it was entertaining.

Kofi Kingston defeated Jack Swagger

Jack Swagger was looking amazing in this match up, and didn't look rattled at all. He had this thing in the bag, it was ridiculous, to see how much punishment Kofi took in this match. He was not winning easily here. Even though Kofi was getting completely dominated for the majority of this match up, he was able to hit Trouble in Paradise to get the win. Swagger just can't win.

Laycool defeated Rosa & Random Diva

This was stupid. Laycool wins, and whatever...I didn't care. You didn't care.

CM Punk defeated Christian

This match wasn't a 4 star classic but it was interesting none the less. Christian loses yet again, and punk is missing his ses.

Del Rio distracted Christian...and that's that.

Post match, Del Rio attacked Christian and Big Show came out, but fought PUnk...and that was that.

The show ended with Kane and Taker brawling, that's it. Lame.

Smackdown was barely watchable...I can't take much more abuse, that's for sure.

WWE Monday Night Raw 7/26/10 Results

Randy Orton defeated 1 Of the USO Brothers
Edge vs The Great Khali
The Nexus defeated Yoshi Tatsu, Evan Bourne, King Jerry Lawler, The Hart Dynasty, Goldust and Mark Henry
Alicia Fox defeated 1 of the Bellas
Ted Dibiase defeated John Morrison
The Miz & Sheamus defeated John Cena & Chris Jericho

WWE Monday Night Raw 7/26/10 Review

The show started with John Cena in ring, after a long promo that recapped the last few weeks. John Cena cut a random promo about Nexus...whatever...who cares.

Chris Jericho came out and helped Cena cut a promo. Sadly, I didn't care, despite the loud chants from the crowd. Jericho and Cena talked about random crap and how Cena wasn't quite different than Nexus....whatever...I hate this crap.

The GM chimed in, and said that Nexus would fight in an elimination match and Chris Jericho & John Cena would fight together as a team....oh man, I'm already bored.

Randy Orton defeated 1 Of the USO Brothers

I didn't take the time to remember the USO brother that fought against Orton here. It's not important, and NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE USOS therefore, I just took this match for what it was; a jobber match. An RKO was hit and this match was over...who cares. Sheamus was watching, and gets paid to do nothing tonight.

Orton was jumped by one of the USO brothers and then Sheamus jumped in to attack but was thwarted by Orton. Orton hit a huge RKO and knocked out Sheamus.

THE MIZ ran down and was about to cash in the briefcase and he did!

I admit, I MARKED OUT HUGE! THE MIZ CASHED IN! THE MIZ CASHED IN! Orton came in and hit an RKO on THE MIZ and he was knocked out solid!

RKO once again hits! The cash in is done....dang....dang....I marked out huge, I've never been this excited in the modern era of wrestling.

The Summerslam rewind was The Honky Tonk Man from the 80's and my favorite moment as well. Ultimate Warrior winning the Intercontinental Championship!

Edge vs The Great Khali

The Great Khali and Edge put on a slow moving match up, and was interrupted by The Nexus. Edge ran away and that was that.

The Nexus got in the ring and no one did anything...they just stood there and Khali left.

The Nexus defeated Yoshi Tatsu, Evan Bourne, King Jerry Lawler, The Hart Dynasty, Goldust and Mark Henry

The Nexus won this match with relative ease. All members got some moves in and everyone was squashed. It was a sad state of affairs, and unfortunately, once again, at the cost of many up and coming stars. Bourne was the last to be eliminated and he got torn apart in the end. Too bad for him. Nexus is like NEW WORLD ORDER LITE right now, and they continue to just beat up everyone....oh well.

Alicia Fox defeated 1 of the Bellas

Alicia Fox wins again...I hate the divas division.

Ted Dibiase defeated John Morrison

John Morrison had this thing sewn up, and I couldn't believe how good he was in this match up. Dibiase was flopping all over the ring and at one point it looked like he was knocked out silly. Dibiase and Maryse tried to interfere but Morrison was helped by R Truth on the outside. After a failed cheating pinfall, Morrison and Truth collided and Dibiase got the win. Not a terrible match, but not exactly a great win.

Post match, Morrison and R Truth got into a heated debate and it looked bad. Morrison walked away and basically said Truth was not his friend...ouch.

The Miz & Sheamus defeated John Cena & Chris Jericho

This odd-couple tag team is a WWE tradition to end raw. I didn't care for it, as I am not buying either story lines, aside from the Miz cashing in all the time. This match was your standard tag team fare with no one getting an upper hand over the other until the end of the match up with Super Cena getting the crowd going and hitting all his moves. Jericho turned on Cena and hit the codebreaker and Miz and Sheamus got the win!

Post match, Cena and Jericho were fighting. Then Khali came out to calm things down and Edge came out and speared Khali. Then Truth and Morrison came out and were fighting. The whole Team Cena fighting thing was funny....wow...should make for an interesting Summerslam.

WWE Superstars 7/22/10 Results

MVP and Chris Masters defeated The Dudebusters
Chavo Guerrero defeated JTG
Primo defeated Yoshi Tatsu
The Hart Dynasty defeated The USOS

WWE Superstars 7/22/10 Review

Here we go, another episode of Superstars.

MVP and Chris Masters defeated The Dudebusters

This match wasn't much to talk about. The Dudebusters are working well together, but it's too bad they aren't on a bigger show. Mvp & Masters was just a random hot shot team and they actually did well working this match up to their advantage. The match sounded like the WWE funneled in cheering, but that was just me. Masters got the Masterlock in and then threw his opponent out of the ring and let MVP hit the Playmaker and that was that. This match was fast, easy to watch, and executed perfectly.

Chavo Guerrero defeated JTG

I feel like we've already seen this match many times over. JTG had a few moments in this match, but it was all Chavo here. Chavo eventually set up the former Cryme Tyme dude with a Frogsplash and won. The crowd was semi-into the match up and he actually got a small response. Maybe that's what they are doing with Chavo here, getting a few fans behind him. JTG continues to fall, and he'll be future endeavored soon.

Primo defeated Yoshi Tatsu

I didn't think this match was all that good, but Primo is improving a lot. He's got a new attitude, and he put on a show for the crowd. Yoshi had some nice kicks in and some good offense, but it was Primo that was able to get Yoshi into a Backcracker off the top rope, which isn't as cool as it sounds, was able to win the match up.

The Hart Dynasty defeated The USOS

Once again, the Hart Dynasty beat the USOS. Is the WWE purposely burying their only other legitimate tag team? The Hart Dynasty continues to win in glorified jobber matches and I'm not sure why. The tag division is a big joke, that's for sure.

This match sucked, this night of wrestling sucked. Superstars needs to go away.

WWE Money In The Bank 2010 Review

Kane won the Smackdown Money In The Bank Ladder Match

The first match was the Smackdown version of the Money In The Bank Ladder match and the stand out at first was none other than Big Show. Big Show was slapping everyone, and mopping up everyone, and even throwing a ladder at Kane, who took a mean bump with it. All of the competitors jumped Big Show then attacked one another. It was interesting to see that no one had the clear advantage, and each man got his own set of moves in before the final man was headed to the top of the ladder. There were some sick bumps from Christian, Kane, Drew McIntyre, and even Kofi Kingston in this one. Fat Ass Matt Hardy, my pick for the win, also put on some good moments, and the crowd rewarded him for his efforts. In fact, this first match really got the crowd going, and when Fat Ass Matt Hardy nearly had the briefcase the uproar was happening. This match was interesting, and it didn't seem like anyone had this thing won as time went on, it was truly up for grabs, and I for one wasn't sure who'd win necessarily. I mean, at one point it looked like Dashing Cody Rhodes or Kofi had this thing easily won.

Big Show didn't catch Christian at one point, and looked like a Botchamania classic. My major complaint with the match was that the spots were rushed at certain points, and the match looked sloppy with so many ladders in the ring. What made the Wrestlemania X ladder match so great was that there wasn't THAT many ladders. The ring and ringside area were flooded with Ladders and therefore this thing got crowded fast. There were also some misjudgments in height and length, and therefore some injuries looked inevitable. Hardy at one point took a shoulder to the pole and made the loudest thud I've heard for a spot of that nature. Kane, Kane was definitely a monster in this match and he immediately went to work. He even messed up the announce tables at a certain point in this match up. Kofi at one point did the Boom Drop on Drew McIntyre through the Spanish Announce table!

Best spot of the match was Ziggler falling off of a ladder into the arm of Big Show and in one fluid motion getting nearly thrown through the ring with an amazing choke slam. It was insane, the fluidity of the move was just amazing and Ziggler looked completely dead afterwards. Overall, the Big Show was the most impressive. I know, I'm waffling, but man, this match was just insane at certain points. Cody Rhodes at one point flew half way across the ring with a picture perfect drop kick off the top rope, hitting Kofi off a ladder. This thing was perfect, and then he knocked himself silly by hitting “Cross Rhodes” on Kofi into a ladder. I'm telling ya folks, this thing had some highlights! The guys buried Big show underneath all the ladders and only his Golden large ladder was left in ring, and this match started to get even more interesting with all the superstars fighting at the golden ladder. Kane chokeslammed EVERYONE and looked poised to get this one. Ziggler ran through the ropes and latched onto Kane on top of the large ladder and couldn't get the case, and then was chokeslammed on a pile of ladders with Big Show underneath them! After some last minute spots, KANE chokeslammed Drew McIntyre off the top of the ladder and won the match up. That's right, the Big Slow Machine wins the first ladder match...whatever....dude sucks.

Alicia Fox defeated Eve

This match sucked. No one cares about these women, and the match was stupid. Alicia won and retained her belt.

The Hart Dynasty defeated The USOS

Another cookie cutter match up, with no major pay off. This match took the life out of the crowd at first, and eventually warmed up. There wasn't anything great to mention here. There were a few good moments, but overall the match just felt the same as other matches these guys have already had in the past. Having the USOS lose is stupid, now who's going to feud with the Hart Dynasty? Who cares. The tag division sucks in WWE, and TNA isn't all that better...ugh...I miss the 80's.

Rey Mysterio defeated Jack Swagger

I feel like I've seen this match before, and it wasn't all that fascinating. I still maintain my position, stating that the best match of recent history with Rey Mysterio was his match up against Dolph Ziggler last year. But aside from my harping on the two greats, this match had a few good moments. The biggest impact came from Swagger getting ddt'd from the top rope and nearly getting knocked out, only to get the 619 and the Springboard pinfall win....well....springboard into the Ankle Lock submission! Rey Mysterio, after being booked like a little kid compared to the larger and more agile Jack Swagger, wins again. I wouldn't have called this match for Mysterio, but he's being booked like the “Houdini” of World Champions, and I guess that's a positive thing? I don't know. I've seen Mysterio wrestle a lot of matches and his latest reign just sucks, and this win sucks. Mysterio won with a Huricanrana pinfall, and that was that. Screw this match, and no offense to the 619 or Lucha Libre fans, but screw Rey Mysterio and his latest title reign. Swagger's build comes crashing down as Mysterio wins again.

Minutes after Rey Mysterio won via pinfall, KANE cashed in his MONEY IN THE BANK CONTRACT! The Crowd went nuts, and I for once in my life, marked out huge for Kane. I just marked out like a school girl for the big dull machine.

Kane defeated Rey Mysterio for the World Championship

Mysterio's leg was looking bad, and Kane immediately took to work against Mysterio. He nearly crippled Mysterio with a huge chokeslam and this was just a matter of time. Mysterio got locked into a Tombstone Piledriver and KANE wins the title after cashing in the MONEY IN THE BANK briefcase! That's right, KANE is the new World Champion! Rey Mysterio was left dead in ring, and KANE is the NEW CHAMPION!

Layla defeated Kelly Kelly

This match was terrible. Kelly Kelly just couldn't get this one won. Layla and Michelle McCool continued to dominate with Michelle constantly interfering. Kelly Kelly did manage a lot of offense, but it wasn't nearly enough to win the match. McCool took some hits, and she even took a nasty fall to the outside before Layla reversed a botched sunset flip to retain the women's championship. This match sucked, I hated this crap, this was stupid. The divas suck, face it.

The Miz won the Raw Money In The Bank Ladder Match

The Raw version of the ladder match didn't start off that hot. If nothing else, the main players were Mark Henry and Evan Bourne, at least early on. Evan Bourne was just fast, he was great early on and I knew something big was going to happen with him and a huge bump, but it wasn't happening early on, he had this thing sewn up, at least for a short time. Randy Orton was probably the favorite with the fans, with a lot of RKO chants, and some choice RKO signs. All men were taking bumps, but the surprise here for me was Mark Henry. Mark Henry was quite over with the fans, which was weird, it only took some 10 years? Oh and did you know that Maryse was in playboy? Yep. I saw the pics...steamy! Oh well. Maryse at one point climbed the ladder! That's right, she climbed the ladder! Morrison grabbed her and told her to leave, and Dibiase nearly got the case, which was a nice little moment, but I would have much rather seen Morrison do a Samoan Drop on Maryse! Sensational Sherri would've taken the bump! That's for sure. Mark Henry on the outside took Edge's, Jericho's and Morrison's finisher after he gave Evan Bourne his World's Strong Slam, so he and Bourne were out of it at the turning point of this match up.

This match didn't have nearly as many hard hitting spots, although they did manage a few. It seemed like these were a little more reserved at times in this match, and maybe that was to protect from injury. Orton hit an RKO on Morrison and Orton was immediately hit with a Shooting Star press! Jericho was tied up, and Evan Bourne reached the briefcase! He couldn't get the hook off and Jericho eventually recovered! No sign of Nexus by the way. Orton had this thing wrapped up after taking out Jericho and Edge through an RKO and a toss through some ladders. He had this thing sewn up but out ran Miz and Orton went flying, and it looked like Miz had this thing won! MIZ didn't play around and actually unhooked this thing and WON! THE MIZ WON THE RAW LADDER MATCH! THE MIZ! THE MIZ THE MIZ!

Sheamus defeated John Cena in a steel cage match

This match was stupid. First of all this match was a slow moving match up. The cage as a weapon came into play, but without any blood, this thing just didn't mean a whole lot to me. Ok, blood aside, this match was your standard John Cena match, and having a ref counting a three count in the ring was just plain dumb. I hate cage matches with a ref inside the ring, it is just not worth the effort. This match went on quite a while with a great deal of offense from both men. I am telling ya, this match was slow moving, and featured a lot of breaks and slow moves.

The Nexus ran down with bolt cutters and the ref ran down and stole it from them. The Nexus then threatened the ringside ref to give them the keys, but he threw them across the ringside area to the crowd! While they argued outside Sheamus and Cena fought, and there was a ref bump. The STFU was locked in and Sheamus was tapping like a drunk man, but it didn't matter. The Nexus was contained outside and Cena was frustrated, locked inside the cage with Nexus safely at bay. This took an odd turn, and I wasn't sure where it was going to go. Cena then was trying to climb the cage but Justin Gabriel climbed to fight him and threw him into the ring! Cena kept trying to escape but the Nexus kept fighting! Meanwhile, Sheamus was trying to climb out at the other side, and Sheamus won the match by getting down first and then running threw the crowd out of the ring.

The match sucked, it just sucked. Sure, Nexus cost Cena the match, but who cares?!? Sheamus ran away so Miz couldn't cash in the briefcase. Cena then looked on at Black John Cena and decided it was time to beat him up. Yep, I'm not sure how the Universe didn't collapse on itself, but John Cena beat up Black John Cena and Michael Tarver. John Cena then threw the ring steps at Michael Tarver.

The show then ended.

This night of wrestling started off hot, but ended terribly. The Raw ladder match sucked compared to the Smackdown one, and the rest of the night was just a blurry mess. This ppv was NOT that great, but at least the first match had so much impact, that it was worthwhile.

WWE Fatal Four Way 2010 Results and Review

It's not often that I get to see live events, but by some miracle of technology, I was able to get this one and review it for all 2 of you readers out there.

The set is really cool, with a giant 4 above the titan-tron, lit up, and in red, quite the cool entrance. The arena looked packed, or at least nearly full, but that's just how it came across.

Vince McMahon showed up and was on the microphone. He said that Bret Hart will not be on the show tonight because the NXT guys beat him up on Raw.

Drew McIntyre came out and shook McMahon's hand, and that was the end of that. McMahon was only there to announce that Hart would not be there tonight. I wonder if that means that NXT rookies will not get an answer.

McIntyre came out at the prompting of Drew McIntyre. Drew then berated Teddy Long with insults, as Teddy was forced to watch the next match.

Kofi Kingston defeated Drew McIntyre

Kofi started this match with lots of kicks, but Drew was able to get control after the initial moments. Kofi was on tonight, he had some very cool and smooth counters to Drew's offense, which were quite cool to see live. His mid-rope dive to the outside was even on key, and different than the Botchamania videos I've seen him featured in.

Drew first focused on Kofi's Leg, then he started working on his arm. It seemed odd that you would want to work on Kofi's arm, considering he has a lot of high flying moves that don't require his arm at all, except in landing. Kofi managed a comeback and despite his arm “hurting” he was able to do a plethora of moves, including sunset flip pinfall attempts, cross body blocks, drop kicks and more. At one point he did acknowledge his arm for a moment, but it didn't matter, he had already shown that the arm wasn't a factor. Don't really believe me? Consider that around the 22 minute mark of the show, Kofi was able to do a “tornado DDT” off the ropes landing on his “injured” arm and was fine, with no showcase of pain, oh well. Drew hit a nice power bomb for a near fall, and this match, despite being a little slow at times, there were some big moves!

Kofi hit the SOS and despite it being near picture-perfect, Drew McIntyre kicked out and this match was getting interesting. The REF bump opened up this match to outside interference. Drew hit his Future Shock DDT, but the Referee was knocked out so he went outside and threw in Teddy Long and told him to make the 3 count. Drew then ripped the shirt off the ref, told Teddy Long to put it on, and count the 3!!!

Teddy went in to count the 3 but after 2 his arm stopped! That's right, Teddy STOPPED! He couldn't give in to the 3!!! I marked out huge!

Matt Hardy ran into the match from the stands, then Trouble In Paradise was hit, and Kofi retains his title! Teddy Long had no problem counting the 3, and the crowd went completely nuts for this one, and I did too. Despite the obvious flaws in the match, Kofi's lackluster acting skills, and a couple of obvious botches, the match was entertaining and a good opener to get the crowd going.

Justin Roberts is a chump, dude got Daniel Bryan fired...jerk.

Alicia Fox defeated Eve Torres & Maryse & Gail Kim to win the Diva's title in a fatal four way match

I actually liked this match. It had a few botches and misses, but there were some sick moves. The most memorable of them were from Eve and Gail Kim. Gail Kim's top rope dropkicks got this thing going quite well for her, but it was Eve that wowed the crowd, even if her top rope moonsault looked painful and will most likely end up being in Botchamania down the line. Alicia won after Eve put it all on the line with a sick dive off the top (moonsault) and this match made a new champion. The divas can string together watchable matches, it's just not often, that's for sure.

Evan Bourne defeated Chris Jericho

This match was a rematch from Raw, and it featured a lot of the same action. The only difference here was that Jericho seemed poised to actually take out the younger star. Jericho was in control a lot of the time, and he was countering a lot. Jericho was in tune with everything that Bourne was going to throw at him, and it was interesting to see a veteran actually counter a younger stars move set. Towards the end, after Jericho blocking Evan Bourne's top rope moves on three consecutive occasions, the shooting star press (Air Bourne) hit with full engines on Jericho! This match was quite good, fast paced, slow where it needed to be, and Jericho loses. I can not express how amazing the Shooting Star press looks when done with the heights that Evan Bourne does it. Move over Billy Kidman, Evan Bourne has re-invented how you do the shooting star press.

On a side note, Jericho's losing record isn't crazy. There's two things that you need to remember as a sports fan and a wrestling fan.

1. People love streaks. Wins or losses, all sports fans love streaks. It's just how it is. Famous streaks in wrestling? How about the Goldberg win streak? It helped WCW conquer the ratings, even in light of the now. Need another streak? Consider Mikey Whipwreck's loss streak that lasted quite a while until he won with Cactus Jack in ECW. His impact was so large that he eventually made it to the big leagues, WCW cruiser weight division and put on a show with kidman at Uncensored.

2. Jericho doesn't need to win to be over.
Jericho can lose forever, but he'll still get the reaction that he wants. Even if he turns face, the fans will go with him. Of all the WWE superstars he's the only one that is jobbing on a consistent basis, passing the torch with each guy. Much like Dean Malenko, and others in WCW, he's letting younger stars take the ball. Too bad HHH isn't doing this...well...except for giving Sheamus the rub...but whatever.

Rey Mysterio defeated Jack Swagger, CM Punk, and Big Show in a Fatal Fourway for the World Heavyweight Championship

This match was fast paced, and featured spots from each wrestler. It took a while to set up just two guys in ring, but after it did, things were speeding up and the high spots were going through. It was quite good at moments, even though it seemed telegraphed that Mysterio would win the match up. Swagger's reign was weak, so when Mysterio his the 619 on him towards the end of the match, I knew it was going to end in a favorable manner for the little guy. Other than Mysterio's title win, this match was forgettable. This match just seemed wasted for some reason, I felt that it was just another Smackdown match up, rather than a ppv caliber match.

The Miz came out doing the What's Up rap with his own Lyrics, and it appeared that his mic didn't work at the end, and it was interesting to see...even though I didn't care. I feel like this match was already done, and it was, so when it came time for it, I was already tired of the ppv.

The Miz defeated R Truth in a United States Championship Match

This match was given some time, and I can't believe that I'm saying this...The Miz is actually quite good. Truth fought hard and it seemed like he was going to get the title again, but it was Miz that turned this match into a win with a nice counter pin. There were some hard hitting moments, with both men going for big moves, but when the match was over, it was a pinfall counter that won Miz the match up. I didn't hate the match, but I didn't think it was all that great either.

The Hart Dynasty defeated The USOS

This six man tag was all over the place. It had a lot of action, with both teams putting on watchable efforts. The USOS, I thought, would get the one up, but it never happened. The Harts ended up winning this one, even though it was Natalya that got the pinfall. The match had a lot of action, and some nice high flying points, but I don't see this feud having a lot of legs. I'm already tired of the feud, if you can call it that. This match didn't even get the crowd going when The Harts won, so that's that.

Sheamus defeated John Cena & Edge & Randy Orton in the WWE Championship Match

The WWE championship match didn't exactly have me too thrilled on paper. I didn't care about all the components to the match up. The match had your standard near falls, and big moves. It boiled down to two wrestlers in ring at a time, with big moves taking out several components at different points. Cena wasn't much of a factor at times, which was definitely nice to see, but that didn't mean he would be gone the whole time. Orton was all over this match, and you could tell that they were being careful with his shoulder at times.

I thought for sure Edge had this thing won with a Spear attempt on Cena, only to have Super Cena emerge and get some “Vintage” John Cena moves. The match broke down with Orton and Sheamus getting involved in ring. After some quick moves, and counters, Super Cena once again got control and locked in an STF on Edge, and this thing looked all but over until Sheamus ran in and tried to steal the match.

Sheamus used the ref as a weapon at one point, or at least to counter Cena's offense, and it looked like the winner was going to be Sheamus, but it wasn't in the cards. I can't stress enough that this match was definitely back and forth, and didn't really look to let any one competitor get the most of anything, except for Cena jumping up and getting hyped now and then.

Backstage the NXT guys jumped some guys that were watching a monitor set up. Meanwhile, Michael Cole got all scared and left the announce table. The NXT rookies ran into the ring and attacked! I marked out huge for this stuff, I can't help it. The invasion interrupted the match up, before any clear winner was taking advantage. After the NXT guys nearly killed Cena, Sheamus jumped in and got the quick pinfall victory and is the NEW WWE CHAMPION! That's right, Sheamus ran in, pinned Cena and ran off out in the crowd, leaving Cena to get beat up by the NXT guys.

As the NXT guys ran off, they left Edge, Orton, and Cena at the ring. Notice that this time NO ONE came to save anyone from the NXT beat down. The ppv ended with all men in the ring beat up, and the crowd chanting FATAL FOUR WAY, and that was that. Not a bad ppv ending, not a great one either, but I'm glad I saw it.

The invasion Angle continues.

WWE Monday Night Raw 6/6/10 Review

The night was supposed to be viewers choice, and in some ways it kind of was. The internet is buzzing with how this thing all ended, but I don't really care...yet. Time will tell.

The show opened up with the general managers talking in ring and immediately I was bored. I'm sorry, I just saw this whole thing coming. The people in charge set up a viewers choice option with Randy Orton and Ege, with some stupid choices like a math or sit up contest! Come on man! Sit up Contest? What a joke. They set up a match between Jericho and The Big Show.

The Big Show defeated Chris Jericho in a body slam challenge

What a waste of two competitors. While I am optimistic about Jericho's strength, I knew from the get go that there was no chance in hell that Big Show was losing this one. Big Show won after a nice effort from Chris Jericho. Raw is not going well so far for me.

The Hart Dynasty defeated The Great Khali and Hornswoggle

This match was dumb, and it was just stupid. The votes came in between a lot of different tag teams, and ended up being Khali and Hornswoggle instead of other opponents, which was stupid to say the least. At least we k now it wasn't rigged, right? Did people actually vote them in? Whatever the case is, The Hart Dynasty won the match.

Post match the Uso's beat up the Dynasty. Whatever, so far the viewers are idiots.

Vladimir Kozlov defeated Santino in a dance contest

I don't know how to seriously review a dance contest, but that's what the fans voted for between these two. Raw was going completely comedic. I hated the show up to this point, and for good reason too.

Maryse won a divas battle royal

This wasn't half bad, but I'm tired of the same old divas revolving around similar circumstances to win or lose matches for a belt I care nothing about.

Kane defeated Sheamus

This sucks. This is stupid. Kane is NOT the big red machine to me, and losing via countout is stupid to say the least. Kane has jobbed out in the past, but this victory wasn't so hot, and it actually just made me wish this show wasn't 3 hours. Yet I had to sit through the rest. Kane won via countout, that's all that is important I guess.

The Miz & Zack Ryder defeated R-Truth and John Morrison

This match was ok to say the least. The crowd seemed to die down at this point, and rightfully so. I didn't expect Truth and Morrison to win, and they sure didn't. The miz and Ryder? I don't like their team, and Ryder can get fired for all I care.

Randy Orton defeated Edge by disqualification

This wasn't even a match, it was like a minute at most. It was actually a stupid thing to see. Orton had one hand tied behind his back, well it was in a sling, and he fought Edge if you can call it that. Edge got the best of the exchange even though he lost the match. Orton might be legit injured, I don't know, and guess what? I don't care. Hopefully Orton can return to form soon.

Matt Hardy defeated Drew McIntyre

This match was fast paced, with Hardy just winning by beating Drew up most of the match. He won after a few minutes, then kept fighting, and that was it. Apparently the crowd loves the guy, so I guess that's ok with me. This match was short, and I didn't mind, I don't think Drew is over and is bland as mayo, so to see him beat up is kind of interesting, even if I don't care.

The next segment was ok for a moment. Rampage Jackson was kidnapped and brought into the ring by IRS, Ted Dibiase and Virgil. Then out came Piper, and wanted to beat up Rampage Jackson, but out ran Dusty Rhodes and he beat up Ted and IRS and Jackson with help from Murdoch fought the bad guys off...it was mildy amusing to see Roddy Piper, that's for sure.

CM Punk vs. John Cena (no contest)

The main event was next, at least that's what I could gather, and it wasn't all that great. The fans voted in Cm Punk for this match up, and Cena was making quick work of Punk. Punk was fighting back and was amidst a comeback until Cena got the better of the exchanges and then got distracted. Wade Barrett came down to the ring and distracted Cena. Then out came the NXT rookies! They all came down and they beat up the Straigtedge Society, and then got onto the ring!

Ok, I was marking out huge for this. The NXT rookies all stepped into the ring and this was getting good! Yes, CENA took on all the NXT rookies, and just got beat up. I was marking out huge for once, that's right, for once I actually cared about a segment on Raw. I was going nuts, because CENA finally was getting his comuppance. The nxt guys were completely killing CENA! YES YES YES!

Then Matt Striker got beat up! Then Michael Cole got beat up! The NXT guys were completely killing everyone. They were beraking the set, beating up guys at ringside, I think a fan might have gotten beat up. The Fink was out there getting beat up.

That's right, the NXT guys comletely took over folks, they ripped apart the place and then the ring and I was going nuts at home, for once I cared about Raw, for once I actually enjoyed watching WWE programming. I love this turn, and I hope they figure out how to make it work. Holy crap, if you missed the ending to Raw, you really missed out. This was completely insane, no commentary, just a complete dismantling of the RING.

John Cena fought back only to get beat down, and I loved every second of it. Oh man, BEST RAW of 2010! BEST FREAKIN RAW! If only for the ending where the NXT guys completely killed Cena and everyone at ring side. Wow...if you missed it, you really missed it, you just missed it. Wow. This was amazing. HOLY CRAP! CENA got killed, that's all I know. WOW.

Cena was taken out on a stretcher and this thing was over.

WWE Monday Night Raw 5/24/10 Results

Randy Orton defeated Batista via Forfeit
Sheamus defeated Mark Henry
Alicia Fox & Maryse defeated Gail Kim & Eve
R Truth defeated The Miz
Edge defeated John Cena and Edge in a triple threat match
The Hart Dynasty defeated Regal & Kozlov

WWE Monday Night Raw 5/24/10 Review

Batista opened the show, and was limping, had his ribs taped and his arm in a sling, with two referees helping him to the ring.

Bret Hart is the new Raw general manager, and he made a match with Batista (in a wheelchair) against Randy Orton. Batista said he’d quit if he was forced to wrestle, and he did. He went on a rant and quit.

I’m not sure where this angle is going, or if Batista is really quitting, but it’s interesting to note, that’s for sure. If Batista quits, fine, I just wish John Cena would quit.

Sheamus defeated Mark Henry

Mark Henry kept playing up his injured shoulder whenever it was convenient. Sheamus didn’t look too strong against the world’s strongest man, but eventually got the win, after Henry’s shoulder started acting up yet again.

Alicia Fox & Maryse defeated Gail Kim & Eve

Another boring divas match with little to no action. Sure there were moments, but nothing I’d like to elaborate, as it all sucked.

R Truth defeated The Miz

R Truth, after a commercial break, launched over the top rope and Miz did NOT catch him, landing on his head! That’s right folks, he landed on his HEAD! I’m surprised the match continued, he was obviously shaken, but he kept going, despite nearly killing himself on live television. The match was quite good, and surprising even. Truth is the new United States champion and the Miz was out cold. I liked this match, it was a rare gem to see a good championship match on Raw.

There was a segment where Jon Lovitz had a talent search, it was terrible; santino came out, some dude with a fake eye was out there, Ted Dibiase came out to buy the eye, it was just a convoluted mess. I’m so sick of the guest host thing on Raw.

The Hart Dynasty defeated Regal & Kozlov

This was just a waste of time. The Hart’s won an easy match up.

Post match, the team was attacked by the son’s of Rikishi and Jimmy Snuka’s daughter, yep, a new tag team.

I read the name online, but I have already forgotten them. I guess there’s a new tag team in town…but does anybody care?

Tomorrow, Michael Cole will demand an apology from Daniel Bryan…or Brian Danielson, whoever shows up.

Edge defeated John Cena and Edge in a triple threat match

This was dumb. It wasn’t a good match, it just seemed like a house show classic, except that Edge won and not Cena. I’m so sick of John Cena, I’m sick of Edge, and while Jericho can be classic, he wasn’t great here. The match wasn’t too long, and was formulaic as all triple threat matches are.

Post match, Sheamus came out and everyone stared each other down before Randy Orton came out, and that’s it. That’s your Raw for Monday night.

I am sick of WWE Raw, I’m sick of wrestling in general. I haven’t been so jaded about wrestling in quite a long time. Maybe it’s a combination of bad wrestling and the fact that I’m dead broke, have no job, and haven’t had a job interview in 8 months. I’ve never been so depressed and maybe it’s seeping through to watching wrestling.

WWE Monday Night Raw 5/17/10 Review

I completely forgot about the TNA review and ppv, because I was busy, so forget it happened. From what I hear, it wasn’t very good anyways.

The show opened up with Bret “The Hitman” Hart coming down to the ring. It’s also important to note that Raw was in Toronto Canada.

The Hitman informed everyone that he wasn’t going to be wrestling tonight, despite being called out by The Miz last Raw.

Chris Jericho came out to interrupt, and what not…I lost track of stuff looking or the new Murs record.

The night had several different commercials and sponsors, in a night tht wasn’t supposed to have any. Of course they were all for wwe and what not, and parodied real commercials.

Looks like the wwe likes to gamble, or play cards or something because they had a “pick your poison” match, where two opponents at Over the Limit would pick their opponents “opponent”. I know, it’s odd, but whatever.

Edge defeated Christian

Christian has been working both shows, and it seems like the brand split didn’t matter. Christian was running straight through Edge for the most part, but managed to hurt his shoulder outside of the ring, which is a common point for Christian matches. The crowd was red hot for this match, and both guys put on some great counters and overall wrestling, despite the short amount of time. After some close falls, it was Edge that managed to win this match up. Not a four star classic, but a great overall opener that kept my attention for a Raw match.

The Undertaker defeated Edge by Countout

Randy Orton didn’t pick Christian, he picked Undertaker and when Edge deliberately got counted out, Christian came out and threw him in the ring. The Undertaker than knocked him out, and that was the end of the night.

I hate no commercial Raw events.
Mark Henry was supposed to face Mark Henry, but instead got trampled by Batista before the match could even happen.

Ted Dibiase Jr defeated Yoshi Tatsu

Tatsu got worked over in this match, despite getting some offense in during the match up. Dibiase hit Dream Street and that was that. The match wasn’t all that great, but I liked the fact that VIRGIL came back. That’s right, THE VIRGIL is now helping Ted Dibiase Jr.

Bret Hart defeated The Miz for the United States Championship

The Hart Dynasty helped Bret hart overcome the odds and once again get the United States Championship! That’s right, he won the match with a lot of help from the Hart Dynasty…The Miz basically got jobbed the crap out. Wow. I have no idea what they are going to do with the United States Title now.

Layla, Michelle McCool and Maryse defeated Eve & The Bella Twins

This match was relatively boring, too much time was spent on dropkicks…seriously. Maryse tagged herself in and got the pinfall victory after the French Kiss. I guess it was ok…I don’t know, I don’t care about the divas in wwe.

Randy Orton vs Jack Swagger No Contest

This match was quite a high caliber match, and was comparable to their ppv outing they had. While Orton seemed to be a little less abrasive, and Swagger was looking quite dominant for a good part of this match, the Viper was striking on all cylinders. The crowd was going nuts, and Swagger, despite nearly losing this match up looked Strong.

Swagger got with an RKO but Edge was there to disrupt the match and hit a Spear.

Evan Bourne & Gail Kim defeated Zack Ryder & Alicia Fox

This match had Ryder taking some serious shots against Bourne, and Gail Kim hitting some nice high spots against Fox. This match had some interesting counters, and Ryder getting involved was interesting to see when the divas were wrestling. Overall though, I didn't really like this match. Gail Kim won the match with a pinfall, and this match was done. A standard mixed tag team match, didn't mean a whole lot.

John Cena vs Sheamus no contest

I'm so sick of John Cena. I'm so tired of seeing him wrestling, it's getting ridiculous. Sheamus further solidified himself as a pale heel, and was really bringing it to Cena during this match up. Cena was doing the classic, super cena, stuff, and no one seemed to care...well, the crowd was loud, I just wasn't into it at all. The "Let's Go Sheamus" chant was huge at one point, with Cena getting booed for his comebacks.

Cena threw Sheamus out of the ring with an Attitude Adjustment, but Batista was there to catch cena and drop him with a spine buster. Batista would go on to beat up Cena yet again, and will most likely lose at the ppv.

This match had rails, it was going somewhere, I actually was watching, then when Batista beat him up, and the match was thrown out. Batista putting on The Rings of Saturn was a nice touch, as Raw went off the air.

I like the build, but I don't know if the match will actually be any good.

Raw was ok, nothing too grand.

WWE Monday Night Raw 4/26/10 Review

The Hart Dynasty defeated The Miz and The Big Show to win the World Tag Team Championships

Bret Hart and the Hart Dynasty made this match interesting to say the least. Miz and Big show tried cheating their way to a win but Bret was there to stop it each time. Meanwhile, the dynasty worked like a well oiled machine and finally got the tag titles with help from Bret Hart!

Post match, The Big show punched out The Miz.

Michelle McCool & Layla defeated Eve Torres & Maryse

This match sucked. I hated it, the divas division has the worst women’s wrestling I’ve ever seen.

Kelly Kelly was drafted to Smackdown.

Cm Punk defeated Evan Bourne

Punk and Bourne battled in a halfway decent match, but as Evan Bourne was climbing the ropes, a masked man came in and interrupted things and that allowed Punk to hit the GTS to win the match!

The Big Show was drafted to Smackdown

Sheamus cut a promo, and it was dumb, I can’t stand Sheamus.

Randy Orton interrupted and things were looking interesting indeed.

They two were about to argue, but out came John Cena to break them up.
I don’t know what happened here, because I was too tired to pay attention, but both Orton and Sheamus were about to kill each other, but couldn’t quite hit, and that made the crowd jump, that’s for sure.

Rey Mysterio, R Truth, Kane, Drew McIntyre , big Shad, Mark Henry, Santino, Ted Dibiase, Yoshi Tatsu,and MVP competed in a Battle Royal

This battle royal concept was to see who would get the next draft picks, and it wasn’t half bad. Santino was definitely the highlight of the show as he stepped up as a leader, at least in the ongoing. I wish I had Santino’s job, just get jobbed out and be funny occasionally, to get six figures!? I wish.

Despite some close tosses, Ted Dibiase and Santino won the match up for Raw.

Santino got dream street on him for his troubles, and this wasn’t half bad.

John Morrison was drafted to Raw
R Truth was drafted to Raw
Edge was drafted to Raw

Chris Jericho got on the mic and was called out Heath Slater before Christian showed.

Chris Jericho defeated Christian

This match was really good, and near ppv quality. Jericho nearly lost a few times, but was able to conquer Christian in this match up with an amazing Code Breaker. Christian came off the top rope and was hit with a huge Code Breaker, Jericho can go, I just don’t like how he’s booked sometimes.

Post match Heath Slater got a code breaker for his troubles.

Kofi Kingston was drafted to Smackdown

Jack Swagger defeated John Morrison

In a rematch from Smackdown, Jack Swagger fought John Morrison in a good overall match up. Morrison put up some good moves, but unfortunately, this time, Swagger beat Morrison, which is finally the way Swagger should be booked.

Christian was drafted to Smackdown

Hornswoggle defeated Dolph Ziggler via countout

This match was stupid. There’s no reason for this.

Chris Jericho was drafted to Raw

Batista defeated Sheamus and Randy Orton in a triple threat #1 contenders match

This match was quite good, and it had a lot of close calls. However, despite some great moves from both Orton and Sheamus, things went south. Edge ran in and speared Randy Orton for apparently no reason, and Batista was able to crawl over and get a hand on Orton to get the three count!

Batista is now the #1 contender to John Cena’s title…again…..

Overall not a bad show, but then again, not a great show either.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 4/16/10 Results and Review

WWE Friday Night Smackdown Results 4/16/10

Drew McIntyre defeated Kane via disqualification
Dolph Ziggler defeated R Truth
Michelle McCool defeated Mickie James
The Hart Dynasty & Rey Mysterio defeated Straightedge Society & Darren Young
JTG defeated Croft
Jack Swagger defeated Edge and Chris Jericho in a Triple Threat Title Match

WWE Friday Night Smackdown Review 4/16/10

Edge and Chris Jericho opened the show arguing about who can beat Swagger and Orton. It was your average opening, and you know? Despite the two guys being good, I’m sick of the repetition in the wwe right now.

Drew McIntyre defeated Kane via disqualification

Kane and Drew McIntyre put on a halfway decent match in this match up. Kane was fighting hard, and Drew managed to get the win after Hardy threw Drew back in the ring. McIntyre was trying to leave and get counted out, but in a bizarre enforcement of the rules, the referee disqualified Kane! This match was decent, but come on, now you’re going to enforce the rules? This makes no sense.

Dolph Ziggler defeated R Truth

This match had Truth looking as good as ever. He was flipping and flopping through Ziggler with relative ease. However, he made a mistake and Ziggler made him pay for it! Ziggler hit the sleeper hold and wouldn’t let go, winning the match! The sleeper hold is back in full effect, which is weird in modern professional wrestling. I can’t believe it, Ziggler wins with the sleeper.

Michelle McCool defeated Mickie James

This was the longest divas match that the WWE has allowed in a long time. Unfortunately, it wasn’t all that good. McCool and James did manage to put on a halfway decent match up, but it wasn’t full of wrestling, it was a lot of resting and running, and then with a quick interference and a kick to the face McCool wins again.

Post match, Beth Phoenix came to save the day, and chased out team LayCool.

The Hart Dynasty & Rey Mysterio defeated Straightedge Society & Darren Young

Darren Young was the highlight of this match, not because of his offense, but because he was getting worked, and was working well with the straightedge society. Other than that, this match was a back and forth affair that was given some good time. I liked it, but it seemed like I have already seen this at a different time. The win came when DH Smith hit the running powerslam on C.M. Punk for the three count. Not a bad match, but not a great one either.

JTG defeated Croft

JTG in singles competition completely bored me. Cryme Tyme had something, but solo? They just aren’t that good in my opinion. JTG and Croft put together a random, and non-eventful match.

Post match, Shad came out and beat up JTG, and that was that. The lowest point of Smackdown had arrived. I don’t care about this feud at all.

Jack Swagger defeated Edge and Chris Jericho in a Triple Threat Title Match

In one of the longest main events on Smackdown, a triple threat match for the World Title was held, and it wasn’t half bad. I don’t believe it was ppv quality, but it was quite good. There were plenty of near falls, finishing moves, and lots of moments where it looked like any of the three would win. Jericho still had his ribs taped, so he was selling the believability of being injured, and let Edge and Swagger do most of the heavy lifting. Edge hit a huge spear towards the end of the match, and I thought this one was over, but nope, Swagger was able to pull Edge out and pin Jericho to retain the world title in one of the best free matches of the year. Swagger wins a hard fought battle, in this exciting triple threat match.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/19/10 Results and Review

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/19/10 Results

Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger defeated MVP & Matt Hardy
The Undertaker defeated Drew McIntyre
Luke Gallows defeated Rey Mysterio
John Morrison & R Truth defeated The Hart Dynasty
Tiffany & Beth Phoenix defeated Layla & Michelle McCool

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/19/10 Review

The show opened up as if someone died, but it was just a recap of last week’s opening segment.

Rey Mysterio got out and stated calling out Cm Punk. Rey wants a street fight at Wresltemania. Punk came out and cut another grand promo, and this match is starting to build into a powder keg of explosive animosity at Wrestlemania.

Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger defeated MVP & Matt Hardy

This match wasn’t much fun. It had some alright moments, but it was a tune up match for Ziggler & Swagger. Ziggler got the win with relative ease after pinning MVP. Hardy and Swagger didn’t do very much in this one, and it was Ziggler that made a name for himself.

Post match, Ziggler pulled out a huge ladder, and climbed up and took the money in the bank briefcase that was hanging in the middle of the ring.

Tiffany & Beth Phoenix defeated Layla & Michelle McCool

The divas put on an ok showing, nothing too crazy, just standard fair. This was standard fare, and nothing more. Beth Phoenix was left in the ring and Vickie Guerrero was trying to get an apology. Nothing crazy here, just another promo.

Edge and Jericho got into a little fight, and Jericho targeted Edge’s Achilles tendon, and then stood over home with the belt. This was your Cutting Edge segment.

John Morrison & R Truth defeated The Hart Dynasty

Anyone that says that the WWE isn’t burying The Hart Dynasty, should shut the up. The Hart Dynasty is the worst tag team in the WWE right now, simply because they lose every match and haven’t gone anywhere. Meanwhile, Cryme Tyme has their own segment! WORD UP! Hahah

Luke Gallows defeated Rey Mysterio

This match was half-way decent, but overall it was your standard big man vs little man match for Rey. Serena interfered and cost Rey the match, letting Gallows pin him. If Mysterio loses to punk at mania, he’ll have to join the straightedge society.

The Undertaker defeated Drew McIntyre

Drew finally gets what’s coming to him…getting buried. Literally.

This smackdown was a lot of hype and video packages. I’m tired. This show didn’t capture my imagination. I will be getting Wrestlemania…and if you want to help me pay for it please donate or something.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/12/10 Results and Review

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/12/10 Results

R Truth defeated The Miz
Drew McIntyre defeated Aaron Bolo
Big Show defeated John Morrison
Cryme Tyme vs The Hart Dynasty no contest
Tiffany defeated Michelle McCool via dq
Kane defeated Luke Gallows via dq

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/12/10 Review

Rey Mysterio came out with his family and Rey Mysterio was thanking the fans, only to have CM Punk appear on stage. Punk sang happy birthday to Mysterio’s daughter.

Punk taunted MYSTERIO on the mic and challenged him to a match, both at Wrestlemania and tonight. Punk kept egging on Rey in one of the most compelling moments in recent years. Punk is just getting more and more psychotic as time moves on.

The Miz came out and cut a promo, talking about how he can beat Truth etc etc…Daniel Bryan was at ringside.

R Truth defeated The Miz

Daniel Bryan cost the Miz this match up as The Miz was moving through a win with relative ease against Truth. Miz tried to cheat by putting his feet on the ropes, but Bryan pushed them off and Miz lost it. Truth hit the Lie Detector and got the three count. Truth is always fun to watch, Miz lost thanks to Bryan and Bryan is the one that is getting the rub off of his pro. I liked the way things turned out.

Drew McIntyre defeated Aaron Bolo

This was a squash match to get McIntyre into the Money in the Bank. It’s stupid to me since he already has the title.

Big Show defeated John Morrison

John Morrison put a valiant effort in this match up, but couldn’t over power the Big Show. Show got beat up for a few moments and eventually got the better of Morrison and pulled out a win.

Cryme Tyme vs The Hart Dynasty no contest

This was stupid. The match wasn’t much of a match at all, in fact it was terrible; the lights went out, Undertaker showed up and beat up everyone, for apparently no reason. I thought it was stupid, why even employ tag teams if you’re going to bury them like this? No pun intended.
Tiffany defeated Michelle McCool via dq

I guess the official decision was a disqualification? I don’t know. This match kind of sucked. Tiffany got beat up by McCool and her cronies.

Post match Beth Phoenix ran down and cleaned house, including hitting Vickie Guerrero.

Kane defeated Luke Gallows via dq

This match was a slow moving big man match and it looked like Kane could’ve won…but Punk interfered. Punk then buried KANE with ease with a nice GTS.

Post match Mysterio ran down and beat the crap out of Punk…I like the way they’re building this feud now.

The highlight reel was next and Jericho was upset at edge. Edge got punched in the face then beaten down by Jericho. Jericho laid out Edge with the world title and then mocked him.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/6/10 Results and Review

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/6/10 Results

Matt Hardy defeated Drew McIntyre
Shelton Benjamin defeated Dolph Ziggler
Ezekiel defeated Jimmy Wang Yang
Rey Mysterio defeated Luke Gallows
John Morrison & R Truth defeated The Hart Dynasty, and Cryme Tyme
Edge defeated Big Show

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 3/6/10 Review

The show opened up with Edge and the Big show trading verbal blows, before Edge threw the Big Show over the top rope.

Backstage Drew McIntyre got his loss expunged from the record. So he never lost. He’ll face Matt Hardy in a money in the bank qualifying match later tonight.

Matt Hardy defeated Drew McIntyre

Matt Hardy has this match going completely his way, he had Drew down and out for the most part. Hardy kept pushing and looking for ways to win, but couldn’t put away the champ until a few pin reversals got him the win! Drew McIntyre loses to Matt Hardy clean, without the twist of fate or anything. He’ll go to Money in the Bank.

Shelton Benjamin defeated Dolph Ziggler

Ziggler wrestled his normal match up, and he wasn’t getting Benjamin off his game. Shelton really muscled through and hit Paydirt, winning this match up. Dolph went for his finisher, but just didn’t have enough to land it.

Ezekiel defeated Jimmy Wang Yang

I’m not sure why Yang is still employed. Ezekiel completely buries Yang, it wasn’t even close.

Rey Mysterio defeated Luke Gallows

Gallows had this match in the bag, hitting Rey with major hits left and right. Hitting him with the lumber, but Mysterio was bound for a comeback. Gallows went for a powerbomb but couldn’t get it, and Mysterio got the win with a nice pin.

Post match Punk couldn’t hit the GTS.

John Morrison & R Truth defeated The Hart Dynasty, and Cryme Tyme

This match could’ve been amazing, instead it was slow, boring and boring. I got tired, I didn’t pay as much attention, and saw that Truth got the pin. I saw on his twitter before the match up that this was going to happen. Lame.

Edge defeated Big Show

Edge has been wrestling quite a lot lately. Interesting to see him wrestle the Big Show. Not a bad match, but Show losing seemed odd to me. Afterward Edge hit Chris Jericho with a spear.

WWE Superstars 2/4/10 Results and Review

That’s right folks, I got satellite television and with that means I now finally get WWE Superstars! So with the rest of the reviews, I’ll be doing a review of WWE Superstars as well. I’m still broke with no job, but saving $30 over cable is helping me a little. If you can spare some change for me to get a wrestling ppv, please do so with the donate button on the side of the site or buy something via amazon, I’d greatly appreciate it.

WWE Superstars 2/4/10 Results

Katie Lea & Alicia Fox defeated Kelly Kelly & Eve Torres
Evan Bourne defeated Carlito
John Morrison, The Great Khali & Matt Hardy defeated The Hart Dynasty & Drew McIntyre

WWE Superstars 2/4/10 Review

Katie Lea & Alicia Fox defeated Kelly Kelly & Eve Torres

This match was given a little bit of time, but the best wrestlers weren’t really in there long. These girls tried to put on a show and while there are some moments when you begin to think that these women are good, they clumsily go through a match and just rush to the finish. It wasn’t the worst divas match but it was far from great, that’s for sure.

Evan Bourne defeated Carlito

Wow, these guys don’t really get much of a shot on Raw each Monday but they are here putting on a show. Carlito is still good, he hasn’t gotten pushed but he still has skills. This match was insane, Bourne nearly killed Carlito at times. This was an amazing match that had people cheering like crazy. Bourne nearly killed Carlito with a top rope powerbomb and his 450 Splash. Back and forth these two put on a ppv quality match and it was a surprise for me to watch. These guys can work and it’s a real shame they aren’t on better shows doing more with their talent. This thing was awesome, I was marking out huge for a change.

John Morrison, The Great Khali & Matt Hardy defeated The Hart Dynasty & Drew McIntyre

Your standard six man tag match, I feel like I’ve already seen this one on Smackdown. Nothing too crazy happened, but it was fun to watch these guys work. They do well in these types of matches and it didn’t completely bore me. The crowd was dead for a lot of this match, showing just how many times we've seen this type of match if not this exact match up before. Hardy hit the Twist of Fate then tagged in khali, and DH SMITH went for the Punjabi Plunge and the match was over just like that.

Final Thoughts

This is a good overall wrestling show. They had at least one 4 star match, or at least 3 stars. I enjoyed the bulk of this show and am glad I can finally see it. I look forward to more wwe supserstars.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 12/25/09 Results and Review Christmas with WWE

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 12/25/09 Results

R Truth, Finlay, John Morrison, Matt Hardy defeated C.M Punk, Luke Gallows, Drew McIntyre, and Dolph Ziggler
Rey Mysterio Jr. defeated The Undertaker via disqualification
Cryme Tyme defeated jobbers
Mickie James & Maria defeated Layla & Beth Phoenix
Dx defeated The Hart Dynasty

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 12/25/09 Review

Alright, Christmas is over, although I’m still tired from my long day of partying. Well, mostly hanging out with family, and eating too much. However, I’m back in action with another review and results thing that I do on this blog that no one seems to read or help me keep going. I gotta admit, I was a little excited about this, but didn’t put my hopes up too high.

R Truth, Finlay, John Morrison, Matt Hardy defeated C.M Punk, Luke Gallows, Drew McIntyre, and Dolph Ziggler

It’s funny to me, that this match just seems repetitive. I know it’s an eight man tag, but we’ve already seen 6 of these guys wrestle each other in a tag match. They’ve added Ziggler and Finlay, but those guys just seem like an after thought. I guess we won’t be seeing Ziggler vs McIntyre anytime soon.

This match was fast paced, and filled with a lot of spots. It just kept pushing forward, with everyone getting their signature shots in right away. The match broke into chaos and every guy ran in and knocked someone out, until Morrison hit Starship Pain on Ziggler and this match was done. I feel like I’m getting hit with the same thing every week from the opening matches on Smackdown. Oh well, it was a fun match, nothing really crazy, but that’s alright.

Chris Jericho came out to cut a promo, and he was interrupted by The Hart Dynasty, and then Dx appeared on the screen and they interrupted the guys in ring. Nothing really happened here, besides more slapstick and nonsense. Chris Jericho was hit with their finisher, and I guess Dx should be scared right? This was boring.

I don’t mind the Piggie James thing, because it’s obvious that at one point she was gaining weight and it was all over the internet and podcasting world. So I don’t care. What does she care? She gets paid to be there, that’s all I’m saying. I wish I got paid to be made fun of on television. Instead, I’m broke, and have no job right now.

The first hour main event, was none other than the world title match.

Rey Mysterio Jr. defeated The Undertaker via disqualification

This match wasn’t half bad, and Mysterio actually had a few chances to make this thing work out. Undertaker definitely pushed his weight around on Rey, and Rey took somemajor punishment in and outside the ring. The Undertaker was ready to light up Rey, but Batista came in and blatantly interfered. The Ref called for the bell, and I can only assume that Rey wins via disqualification. Mysterio got the last laugh with 619’s on Undertaker and Batista. This match should’ve got a clean finish, but instead it just got the Dusty finish.

Cryme Tyme defeated jobbers

This was weird. Cryme Tyme was in the second hour and they just beat the crap out of two really random guys. I kid you not, these guys were nobodies.

Mickie James & Maria defeated Layla & Beth Phoenix

This match was ok at best. Layla spent a lot of time with rest holds, and Mickie James ended up winning for her team. Then she attacked Michelle McCool, who was at ringside. This match bored me.

Dx defeated The Hart Dynasty

The Hart team got some good offense in against Dx. They did not just get worked and then thrown out of the ring. They actually put on a good show. Natalya definitely helped her team get a bit more offense than they usually get. I admit, I was almost impressed with the timing from Dh Smith and Tyson Kidd, they seemed to be right in there with Dx, despite Dx being much slower than their past days as a team. There were a few near falls, but nothing that I really would consider “obvious” or even “realistic”. Dh Smith couldn’t put away HBK without a finisher, yet he was heavily frustrated at the two counts. Triple H got the hot tag, and was leveled by Kidd and Smith with the finisher from the Hart's but that wasn't enough. Kidd fell outside the ring, and HBK hit DH Smith with a superkick from outside the ring, and Triple H hit a huge pedigree, and this match was done. I knew the Hart's would not win...but I didn't think it would be with Dx kicking out of their finisher. So much for building up the tag division, huh?
