The show kicks off with Jeff Hardy attacking Triple H! They are brawling and Chavo is sent to stop them from fighting, but Triple H knocks him out and Hardy and Triple H are brawling like crazy, and no one is stopping them, but then the ref’s come in to try and break them up.
R Truth defeated MVP
MVP has really been on someone’s bad side because he hasn’t gotten a break in a long long time. This match went by somewhat slower than I wished, as the crowd was really taken out of this one, but on the flipside, MVP was looking more like a serious wrestler, using wear down holds on R Truth to make sure his offense wasn’t too much. But R Truth managed to win this one with a roll up, proving once again that MVP pissed off the wrong person. MVP got on the mic after the match and that prompted Mr. Kennedy to come out and cut a program, weird.
The Brian Kendrick defeated Primo Colon
This match was interesting, two young guns wrestling because Kendrick and Ezekiel beat the brothers Colon once, and now they caught Kendrick hitting on the twins backstage. Primo is a good fit in this match as he counters Kendrick’s style quite nicely. Kendrick is great as the cocky heel and he play it up so well. Kendrick really took some punishment in this match at the hands of Primo, and things were looking like it was all Primo, but of course Ezekiel couldn’t help but get involved, causing a distraction and a kick later Primo loses to Kendrick. The kid is great, Kendrick wins again!
Hurricane Helms defeated Shelton Benjamin
The U.S Champion Shelton Benjamin really had his hands full with the returning Helms, and I was worried that they were just going to bury Helms now that he’s back. Benjamin really focused on Helm’s neck. A great shot was Benjamin hitting a dropkick while Helms was in mid air! Helms landed on his neck then a short dropkick sent him neck first into the ringside guard rail, and Benjamin continued his attack on the formerly injured neck of Helms. The rest of the match was a comeback attempt by Helms, and after Benjamin missed his jump on to the third rope, Helms hit a very weak cross body block and go the pin! Helms once again wins on wwe television, and he’s doing well since coming back. I like him, I admit it.
The Great Khali defeated Hawkins and Ryder
This was a throwaway handicap match. Ryder and Hawkins basically got killed by Khali, and that’s all I can and will say about this match.
The Bella Twins defeated Maryse & Natalya
I’m a sucker for Maryse, she’s kind of hot. I don’t know what it is about her, but she looks hot to me. So this match got a little more attention than usual. She’s not THAT good of a wrestler and Natalya isn’t that hot to me, but the heel side of this equation was way better than the face’s. The twins basically got beat for the most part, and Maryse did a lot of damage with the camel clutch, meanwhile Natalya landed a lot of power moves. The twins won this match, which was weird, considering they had no offense in this match up. I liked Maryse, that’s about it.
Triple H vs. Jeff Hardy (no contest)
I wasn’t sure who was going to win this match up at all. The match was about as good as you’re going to get from these two. These guys put on a ppv caliber match, which is great considering that Triple H has been known not to work as many dates as some other champions. However, he’s chasing the title, so maybe that’s why he’s wrestling so much on free television. Jeff Hardy is a machine and he was just going through and through with Triple H, Triple H was looking tired towards the end of this match up, but I liked it more than usual. Jeff Hardy hit the Whisper in the Wind, and I thought it was over, but Hardy didn’t get the cover right away, therefore Triple H kicked out and this match was getting really good, the crowd going nuts, and myself really not sure where it was going, until Hardy made a third and final comeback. Hardy then went to the top rope for the Swanton Bomb but there was no way this match was going to end this way, or was it? He missed the Swanton! Then of course we get the wwe throwing out the match by having Edge run in and spear Triple H causing the end of the match; lame.

Tna Impact 12/11/08 Angle Gets Jarrett Review and Results
I’m tired again and I don’t want to watch Tna, but I somehow make it through.
The opening of the show is just the Main Event Mafia and the TNA Originals arguing about random crap. They also announce an x-division tournament to determine a new –division champion, since they have once again stripped Eric Young of the title.
Eric Young defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir
The first round of the tournament started with the same match we saw the last two ppv’s. The two put together a decent, although very short match. The match had no major highlights except for the Eric Young suplex roll up pinfall victory. No new ref dealings, but it was all good. Quick match, worthy of wwe velocity or something, nothing too special, and if you missed it, it wasn’t all that great. They don’t let the x-division shine on free television, where they should.
Alex Shelley defeated Black Machismo Jay Lethal
This match should have been way better, considering what went down at the ppv, but for whatever reasons, it just didn’t happen the way I expected. Once again a short, quick spot match up. The best part was definitely Jay Lethal jumping out of the ring with a suicide dive on Sabin! Sabin wasn’t even paying too much attention and it looked surprising. Shelley won a rather simple and easy match up to move on in the tournament.
James Storm defeated Abyss in a beer on a pole match
This was the worst gimmick on a pole match I’ve seen in a long time. They finally made things idiotic, a beer on a pole match? Seriously? What the heck guys? FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS! Seriously, FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS! This match was lame, Abyss hit the Black Hole Slam but didn’t go for the pin. Matt Morgan ran down to help, but Bobby Roode nearly knocked out Abyss with a chair, and James Storm wins this very stupid gimmick match up.
They opened up the stupid gimmick cases.
Hernandez case #4 got him: World Title shot!
Curry Man case #3 got him: Fired!
Homicide case #1 got him: X-Division Title Shot!
I knew they were going to fire Curry man. So now Christopher Daniels can be Suicide right? I don’t know.
Christy Hemme defeated Sojourner Bolt
I wasn’t surprised by this. Sojourner Bolt gave a good challenge, then the heel turn happened. Not bad. Awesome Kong might have a new ally here. Hemme freaked out after the match and attacked her opponent. This match wasn’t too memorable at all, at least I didn’t think so.
Bubba Ray Dudley vs. Kurt Angle fought to a no contest
This match was stupid to. Bubba Ray hasn’t been a relevant singles wrestler since his lonely run in WWE where he lost a lot of weight. This turned into an ECW reminder with Bubba Ray cut wide open and the two wrestlers fighting in the back stage area. This was definitely a throwback for me, because this used to happen all the time on ECW tv. Scott Steiner hit Bubba Ray Dudley with a pipe and the rest of the mafia beat him down. Lame.

WWE Raw 12/9/08 Slammy Awards Review and Results
I didn’t think I’d make it to see this show, but after a quick shower, I’m set to review the next three hours of Raw with full intensity! I’m tired though, and I might miss a few things here and there, who knows what’s up.
We opened the show with the tag team of the year award going to: The Miz & John Morrison
CM Punk defeated John Morrison in an intercontinental championship tournament semi-final
Morrison and Punk wrestled in the latest match up for the Intercontinental Championship tournament. Punk really made things interesting within minutes throwing himself off the middle rope and nearly knocked himself out. Hurricanrana off the top rope was insane! Cm Punk nearly shattered his leg when he landed, but he delivered one hell of a move! I was marking out huge for this match! Punk hit the high knee, but Morrison hit a Russian leg sweep and turned the tide a little bit. Punk was really favoring his leg in this match up, after landing hard from the top rope. Morrison countered the GTS into a roll up, but then immediately walked into a high kick to the head, Punk went for the GTS one more time and hit Morrison with it! Morrison loses to Punk and CM Punk advances in the tournament!
Best finishing maneuver of 2008 slammy award went to: Evan Bourne’s Shooting Star Press
MVC (Charlie Haas) defeated MVP
This was hilarious to say the least. Charlie Haas looked amazing as MVC and he really made it look good, looking exactly like MVP. I thought for sure MVP would win this one, but apparently it wasn’t his night. MVC defeated MVP after MVP missed his running leg kick. This was a short non memorable match. MVP is still on that losing streak, sadly.
The slammy for most extreme moment went to: Jeff Hardy’s dive off the titantron
Chris Jericho defeated Jeff Hardy
Jeff Hardy and Chris Jericho squared off in this match up, which was interesting. Jericho really looked great against Hardy, even though Hardy was the main fan favorite of this match up. Jericho was ready to win this with the Walls of Jericho, but Hardy kept getting out of it. Jericho managed to hit the Code Breaker and this match was over. Jericho defeated Jeff Hardy clean!
The Slammy for couple of the year went to: Vickie Guerrero and Edge
Finlay defeated Santino
Finlay beat Santino easily. Santino didn’t stand a whole lot in this match up, Finlay looked amazing against him. Santino is still way over, even if he loses and doesn’t do a whole lot of wrestling, which is great in these modern times.
The Slammy for WWE Diva of the year went to: Beth Phoenix
The slammy for OMG moment of year went to: CM Punk for cashing in money in the bank and winning the title
Rey Mysterio defeated Kofi Kingston in an Intercontinental championship semi-final
Kofi Kingston stood out in this match against Rey Mysterio. Mysterio was doing his best to try and combat the onslaught of high flying maneuvers that Kofi is known for, but Kofi also tried to do some technical wrestling, isolating Mysterio’s arm. This match had a lot of counters, and it involved Mysterio and Kofi both missing key drop kicks and other maneuvers that they do. This was incredible, and Rey Mysterio was really moving fast in this match up and eventually beat Kofi Kingston with a back roll up out of nowhere!
The slammy for match of the year went to: Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair WM 24
I don’t believe that, that match sucked!
Cody Rhodes, Manu, & Randy Orton defeated Batista & Triple H
I thought this match was dumb. I hate handicap matches where the two good guys are facing three guys. The only good that can come of this is the heels win and gain a hold on their next match up. However, if the good guys win then the bad guys look stupid for not being able to win as a team, which should never happen. There is no way that two regular dudes should beat three guys, but alas, this is pro wrestling after all. The expected spots happened here but after the dust settled from the all out brawl, Randy Orton swooped in and defeated Batista and Triple H! Orton jumps in hits the RKO and it was all over from there.
The Slammy for the most “Damn” moment of the year went to: The Khali Kiss Cam
Dolph Ziggler defeated R. Truth via countout
What in the world? R Truth against Ziggler? Alright, whatever. Ziggler was all over Truth, which is insane! He was doing great work in there for once, and I like his boots, they remind me of The Brain Busters. Truth took a nasty spill in the ring towards the ropes, and he wasn’t’ the same for the rest of the match up, it did look bad, like it knocked the wind out of him. This match was quite impressive, honestly, I was really impressed with how this match went, including Truth’s Irish whip onto Ziggler and Ziggler selling it like Bret Hart! Truth went over the top rope and nearly knocked out Ziggler when hitting him in the face! It looked great, these two really did some work for once. Ziggler hit Truth with a kick to the face and beat the 10 count for the win.
The Slammy for Superstar of the year went to: Chris Jericho
John Cena vs. Edge (no contest)
We saw this match one million times a couple of years back. It seemed like these two wrestled every week and every ppv for at least 6 months or so. Whatever the case is, this match was halfway decent, as the two wrestlers know each other quite well in the ring and out. This match broke down into a melee when Chris Jericho tried to interfere in the match. Cena jumped out and attacked him instead, the bell rang fast, and every main eventer ran down. The last man standing in the ring, once again holding down the roster, was none other than Triple H. Hardy ran the safety railings and BOOOM hit Edge with a huge drop kick. The match, I presume was thrown out, no official winner or loser was announced.
Overall a good night of wrestling, and I personally wouldn’t mind 3 hours of raw each week, but that’s just me. Lots went down on this night, and this weekend is Armageddon! So watch out for that. I’m not 100% sure I’ll return for ECW tomorrow, but I’ll try, if not, I’ll definitely be back for TNA Impact this week! OH and please check out the links on the sidebar and if you’re shopping on amazon, click our banners, it helps me keep getting cable and ppv’s…I’m going broke trying to cover all the wrestling bases, so help out a brotha, please.

Tna Final Resolution 2008 Revew and Results
I was really dreading this one, but since I’m going to be absent for the next couple of days, I’m going to be reviewing yet another TNA PPV, and here it is Final Resolution 2008.
Cute Kip, Sonjay Dutt, Some Dude From The Motor City Machine Guns, BG James, Jay Lethal, Consequences Creeds, Curry Man, Hernandez, Homicide, Shark Boy wrestled in a Fest or Fired match.
This match sucks. I hate the gimmick, I hate how people are just fighting each other for the briefcases. Last year, they had this and it was so lame and so convoluted, and made me hate wrestling in a lot of ways. My favorite part of the match was the Curry Man moves. It seemed like everyone got to hit their favorite spot, including LAX. Hernandez was launching people out of the ring like hot potatoes! It was kind of cool. There was just too much going on for my tastes. Curry Man gets case #3 and then dives onto the floor with NO ONE to catch him! Homicide got briefcase #1! Honestly, some of these mid carders are no no name wrestlers to me, I have no idea who some of them are. I know some of them…most of them? I don’t know. Some of these guys haven’t been on Impact in a while. Jay Lethal jumped in and took a briefcase, briefcase #2! The Motor City Machine Guns were left standing in the ring, without a case and they were upset that Jay Lethal jacked them for the case. This is the most convoluted match in the history of professional wrestling.
Curry Man pulled Case #3
Homicide pulled Case #4
Jay Lethal pulled case #2
Hernandez pulled case #1
One case was going to be opened tonight, and that case was number 2 so Jay Lethal opened his briefcase revealing: Jay Lethal will receive a tag team title shot! WTF? This is so stupid, so convoluted, I hate this match, FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!
ODB, Roxxi, and Taylor Wilde defeated Sharmell and The Beautiful People
The knockouts were on point as usual. I could see a ppv dedicated to the woman’s championsip, as these girls really put it all out there. They are better wrestlers than lookers, that’s for sure, however the beautiful people do have that porno starlet quality to them. Whatever the case is, these chicks got it going on. They can wrestle really well, and I enjoyed this match, and if you’ve seen the impact matches featuring these women, you’ll have enjoyed this one. It’s longer than impact, and they really o a good job. I really liked Roxxi in this match up, she showed she can wrestle and be extreme and her tag team maneuvers with Taylor Wilde really proved to be a great and unique way to use them together. Sharmell wasn’t in there for a lot of the match, and you could tell she was scared as ODB was tagged in. Sharmell finally got tagged in and ODB was ready to kill her but Cute Kip interfered and ODB cased Sharmell straight to the back of the arena. Taylor Wilde picked up the win for her team with a cross body block off the top rope!
Eric Young defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir for the x-division championship
The X-Division title match was on the line in this one. First things first, he ref that screwed things up the last time is once again here, and this is lame. However, the two put on a half way decent match up. WWE could take notes on this, as the cruiserweights can really put on some good classic wrestling if they are given some time to wrestle. Bashir did put in a lot of rest holds, but overall, he made it look good with Eric Young putting in some great counter moves. Eric Young’s top rope elbow drop was amazing! Picture perfect, and nearly like the classic Macho Man elbow drops that I remembered as a kid. Lots of near falls followed with neither opponent getting an edge over the other. Eric Young wins this one and the x-division title!
Post match, Bashir attacked the ref and that prompted the ref to go nuts again. The ref got busted wide open and was wobbly during this one, and Bashir really beat the hell out of him! I can’t believe no one came to the rescue of the ref, who was really paying for any previous encounters he might have had with Bashir.
Christy Hemme defeated Awesome Kong via disqualification
This match has been boiling for a while, but I was under the impression that Hemme had a battle with the beautiful people? Maybe not; this match was for the knockouts title, it was definitely better than any divas match I’ve seen this year. Hemme was fearless in this match, jumping off the top rope onto kong, and really giving Kong a run for her money. Hemme had this sewn up for the win but Raesha Saeed pulled Hemme out of the ring during her pin attempt, then Rhaka Khan was out there trying to fight her, and Hemme basically was fighting three women to try and win this match up against Awesome Kong. Kong went nuts and threw the referee down, and then went on to beat th living crap out of Hemme, until TNA officials came running in and separated the two knockouts.
Beer Money Inc defeated Matt Morgan & Abyss
The tag team championship titles were on the line for this match up and things could get very good for Matt Morgan and Abyss, but I had my doubts going into this match up. Matt Morgan and Abyss were looking way too dominant for Beer Money and Beer Money was nearly walking out of the match up, and of course like in all ppv matches the stipulations changed and if they lost the match via count out they would lose the titles. So they were forced to come back. Beer Money turned things back around again, and they were looking like the champs as they systematically tried to dissect Matt Morgan working over his limbs with ease. That is until Morgan got his second wind, and Abyss got tagged in! He was cleaning house with every single big move he has in his arsenal. But the guys in beer money gave him a good match up. Abyss stole the beer bottle from Beer Money and was ready to strike, but was distracted long enough for one of the members of Beer Money to grab some brass knuckles and knock out abyss! Beer Money keeps their titles with one of the oldest tricks in the book! FINALLY a GOOD tag team! Beer Money is a perfect example of a good tag team in modern day professional wrestling.
Suicide made his in ring debut. Full mask and body covered. He beat up the motor city machine guns, and just annihilated both of them. I don’t know who Suicide is, but everyone I’ve spoken to have claimed that it is Christopher Daniels, I’m not sure who he is really…nor do I even care. It wasn’t a match, he just jumped in and beat people up.
Kurt Angle defeated Rhino
Mick Foley was the special guest enforcer
This to me was just delaying the inevitable meeting between Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett. You knew it was coming and it was just TNA’s way of getting Rhino involved with the ppv. Kurt Angle was once again beating his opponent out of the ring and made sure to get in a lot of spots. Meanwhile, Foley was trying to give tips to Rhino whenever Angle was out of the way. Angle was way too confident with his rear naked choke as he just seemed to be trying to choke out Rhino, but Rhino go back up and mounted a short lived comeback. Angle got the upper hand in this match up with the inevitable Ankle Lock and Foley was screaming for Rhino to dig deep, and somehow, by some miracle managed to not be a factor at all. Rhino did however put on another great comeback and set up for a huge gore, but walked into an angle slam instead. Angle looked frustrated, and foley was itching to get back into the ring one more time. The Ref got gored out of his boots which was a nice touch, and Angle had this match sewn up completely. He went out to ringside and grabbed a chair, meanwhile Foley was in the ring to try and stop him from hitting Rhino with a chair, meanwhile Foley took over the ref’s job and counted a quick two count! He then kicked out the ref and took the full fledged ref’s spot for a good portion of the match up. Rhino was looking to be winning this one, especially now that Foley was the ref. Al Snow was there! Al Snow showed up! That’s right, AL FREAKIN SNOW! Angle took advantage of Foley being distracted by Snow, and Foley counted a three count after Angle hit Rhino in the head with a chair!
Sting, Booker T, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner defeated Team 3-D, Samoa Joe, and Aj Styles
This was also convoluted. But easy to follow, meaning that the world title was on the line in this match; Sting’s team had to win to retain the belt for Sting, however if Styles’ team won, then Sting would lose the belt to Aj. Weird. Alright, this match was your basic tag team fair, nothing crazy, just everyone getting a shot to show what they had. These type of 8 man tag team matches rules the 1980’s wwf scene and I remember borrowing lots of “Best of WWF” tv compilation vhs tapes from my local video store, and that’s what this match reminded me of. It was an all around good match up, even though there were some spots that were a little long for my particular tastes. With so many fresh tags, no one looked to be so doing worse than the other, and overall this wasn’t half bad. I actually didn’t have a favorite going into this match up, but it was refreshing to see so many spots in such a match up. We saw some of the best moves from Team 3-D and even Nash got a few spots in this one. Dare I say, that Steiner looked good too! Overall not the worst match up in the world, even if it was a tag team match for the main event. This was almost as good as the main event of In Your House Canadian Stampede where The Hart Foundation went over big in the main event in a HUGE tag match. This thing turned into an all out brawl at the end, as it should, and things were really favoring the Main event mafia. Sting hit the scorpion death drop and pins joe for the win. The main event mafia win again!

Cute Kip, Sonjay Dutt, Some Dude From The Motor City Machine Guns, BG James, Jay Lethal, Consequences Creeds, Curry Man, Hernandez, Homicide, Shark Boy wrestled in a Fest or Fired match.
This match sucks. I hate the gimmick, I hate how people are just fighting each other for the briefcases. Last year, they had this and it was so lame and so convoluted, and made me hate wrestling in a lot of ways. My favorite part of the match was the Curry Man moves. It seemed like everyone got to hit their favorite spot, including LAX. Hernandez was launching people out of the ring like hot potatoes! It was kind of cool. There was just too much going on for my tastes. Curry Man gets case #3 and then dives onto the floor with NO ONE to catch him! Homicide got briefcase #1! Honestly, some of these mid carders are no no name wrestlers to me, I have no idea who some of them are. I know some of them…most of them? I don’t know. Some of these guys haven’t been on Impact in a while. Jay Lethal jumped in and took a briefcase, briefcase #2! The Motor City Machine Guns were left standing in the ring, without a case and they were upset that Jay Lethal jacked them for the case. This is the most convoluted match in the history of professional wrestling.
Curry Man pulled Case #3
Homicide pulled Case #4
Jay Lethal pulled case #2
Hernandez pulled case #1
One case was going to be opened tonight, and that case was number 2 so Jay Lethal opened his briefcase revealing: Jay Lethal will receive a tag team title shot! WTF? This is so stupid, so convoluted, I hate this match, FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!
ODB, Roxxi, and Taylor Wilde defeated Sharmell and The Beautiful People
The knockouts were on point as usual. I could see a ppv dedicated to the woman’s championsip, as these girls really put it all out there. They are better wrestlers than lookers, that’s for sure, however the beautiful people do have that porno starlet quality to them. Whatever the case is, these chicks got it going on. They can wrestle really well, and I enjoyed this match, and if you’ve seen the impact matches featuring these women, you’ll have enjoyed this one. It’s longer than impact, and they really o a good job. I really liked Roxxi in this match up, she showed she can wrestle and be extreme and her tag team maneuvers with Taylor Wilde really proved to be a great and unique way to use them together. Sharmell wasn’t in there for a lot of the match, and you could tell she was scared as ODB was tagged in. Sharmell finally got tagged in and ODB was ready to kill her but Cute Kip interfered and ODB cased Sharmell straight to the back of the arena. Taylor Wilde picked up the win for her team with a cross body block off the top rope!
Eric Young defeated Sheik Abdul Bashir for the x-division championship
The X-Division title match was on the line in this one. First things first, he ref that screwed things up the last time is once again here, and this is lame. However, the two put on a half way decent match up. WWE could take notes on this, as the cruiserweights can really put on some good classic wrestling if they are given some time to wrestle. Bashir did put in a lot of rest holds, but overall, he made it look good with Eric Young putting in some great counter moves. Eric Young’s top rope elbow drop was amazing! Picture perfect, and nearly like the classic Macho Man elbow drops that I remembered as a kid. Lots of near falls followed with neither opponent getting an edge over the other. Eric Young wins this one and the x-division title!
Post match, Bashir attacked the ref and that prompted the ref to go nuts again. The ref got busted wide open and was wobbly during this one, and Bashir really beat the hell out of him! I can’t believe no one came to the rescue of the ref, who was really paying for any previous encounters he might have had with Bashir.
Christy Hemme defeated Awesome Kong via disqualification
This match has been boiling for a while, but I was under the impression that Hemme had a battle with the beautiful people? Maybe not; this match was for the knockouts title, it was definitely better than any divas match I’ve seen this year. Hemme was fearless in this match, jumping off the top rope onto kong, and really giving Kong a run for her money. Hemme had this sewn up for the win but Raesha Saeed pulled Hemme out of the ring during her pin attempt, then Rhaka Khan was out there trying to fight her, and Hemme basically was fighting three women to try and win this match up against Awesome Kong. Kong went nuts and threw the referee down, and then went on to beat th living crap out of Hemme, until TNA officials came running in and separated the two knockouts.
