TNA Impact 8/5/10 Review
Ugh...TNA started with a recap of last week and I was already tired of TNA. I've been doing a LOT of terrible wrestling and somehow, I have to deal with it all the time..nevermind, I was going to rant, but eh, no one cares.
The show opened up with the recap than went into Tommy Dreamer calling out Raven. He asked Raven why he beat up Dreamer.
The whole storyline is that Tommy Dreamer stole Raven's Girlfriend and that's it. He went on about how he was going to screw Dreamer's wife, and the two brawled on top of the stage while Abyss and RVD came out and wrestled. Foley came out with a barbed wire bat to the stomach.
Foley said that he was going to be the special guest referee for the night.
Is it just me or is Taz just phoning it in? He looked like he wasn't even trying tonight, and of course, he sucks.
I'm tired of this stuff...FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!
Taylor Wilde & Hamada defeated The Beautiful People
I like Taylor Wilde, I think she'd be cool to hang out with and...uh...nevermind. Hamada can wrestle, so I was hoping for big things from this match for once. Lacey Von Erich is the WORST of the knockouts. No one could carry her, and Hamada was having a hard time wrestling a terribly rookie. Velvet Sky is my least favorite of the Beautiful People. The motorcycle woman came down and helped the beautiful people by giving lacey von erich a steel chair, but it was Taylor Wilde that kicked the chair into Von Erich and that was that. New champions!
AJ Styles defeated Rob Terry
The television title was defended here, and Styles was hitting hard, but not as hard as Terry. I like Terry, he's a nice counter what is now the standard "wrestling body" and a nice throwback to the 80's. Terry was throwing Aj Styles around like a rag doll, and it was good. After some cheating tactics the former World Champion hit the 450 Splash and won the match. Where is Orlando Jordan? I thought he was feuding with Rob Terry? Oh well.
The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Beer Money in an Destination X match
I didn't like this match. Yes, they put on quite a show, but come on! It's cookie cutter and you KNEW who was going to win. I'm sick of seeing this stupid crap. I'm tired of watching high spots and no psychology, and while I like both teams, I don't want to see them wrestle each week. At least not each other. I need something NEW! PLEASE!
Bischoff and Hogan came out and ran down the card for next week, which was boring. Out came Kevin Nash and beat up Hogan. That prompted Jeff Jarrett to come out and beat up Kevin Nash. That prompted STING to come out in Red Makeup and he used the bat on Jarrett. Sting hit Hogan in the head with a chair. Jarrett was knocked out. The announcers kept talking about how the Wolfpack is back, NWO WOLFPACK...I don't care...I'm sick of these storylines.
The Pope defeated Orlando Jordan
Orlando Jordan finally is getting a shot at wrestling, instead of just freaking everyone out. The Pope was fighting well, while Orlando Jordan was doing his normal weirdo wrestling moves. The Pope eventually got the upper hand thanks to Erik Young. Erik Young ran down to the ramp and started picking up all the money that dropped from the ceiling. The Dinero Express was hit and that was that, the Pope wins.
This makes no dang sense to me. Pope is a franchise TNA player and they could make him into a major ratings draw, but nope. Matt Morgan sneak attacked him and that prompted Anderson to run down to the ring with a chair, and that was that. I'm tired of TNA and their dumb writing, FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS!
Ric Flair defeated Jay Lethal
This was embarrassing. I can't believe that Lethal would for this. This is a spectacle. Flair and Lethal fought in a street fight. I kid you not. Lethal in Jeans and Flair in his suit gets completely dismembered. This was sad. Flair wrestled Lethal in his underwear at one point! YES! In his underwear! Flair was busted open and was bleeding like a stuck pig. Flair, with one shoe, one sock and his underwear was fighting what appeared to be a much smarter Lethal. Thanks to Douglas Williams knocking out Lethal, Flair wins, bleeding all over the ring all over Lethal, and wow...This is sad, but you know what? The 12 year old in me was marking out like crazy.
Raven & Abyss vs Rob Van Dam & Tommy Dreamer (no contest?)
This match was terrible. Dreamer can barely work with his bum knee. RVD was ok, and Abyss was ok. Raven was a non issue. The end of this match featured 1/2 of the old ECW roster come into the ring and start beating up Abyss. The Gore got stopped, and out came 3-D! They were ready to hit 3-D but out came Raven with a chair and stopped it all. I used to love Raven, but he just looks fat now. Bring back the normal hair and lose some weight!
The lights went out completely and in the ring was The SANDMAN! AKA HAK! SANDMAN went to town with the Kendo stick! Sandman hasn't aged a bit! SANDMAN IS IN TNA!!! BUT WHO CARES? FIRE ALL THE TNA WRITERS! FIRE ALL THE WHATEVER FIRE EVERYONE! SOMEONE PLEASE STOP THIS STUPIDITY!
The show ended with everyone in ring celebrating...I'm so sick of TNA right now...I'll have a Hardcore Justice review coming Monday...So tired.

WWE Superstars 8/5/10 Results
Layla defeated Tiffany
Hawkins & Archer defeated The Dudebusters
Evan Bourne defeated Zack Ryder
WWE Superstars 8/5/10 Review
Another wrestling show another review, and I'm dead tired. As soon as I heard the divas music...I knew I was in for another hate filled night.
Layla defeated Tiffany
Layla in person is quite attractive, on tv? Not so much. Tiffany in person? not that hot to me. These two put on a sub-standard divas match and I didn't like it. I'm so sick of the divas division, they are some of the worst wrestlers ever. That being said, I didn't hate this match quite as much as I thought I would. There was some legit wrestling somewhere in this match, and that was a stunning thing. Layla worked on Tiffany's knee until she hit her finisher and that was that. This match took longer than many other divas matches I've seen and Layla came out on top without much interference from Michelle McCool.
Hawkins & Archer defeated The Dudebusters
The announce team said that this was an impressive win, but I didn't think it was. This match sucked, it was just another tag team match for me. Hawkins and Archer can actually wrestle, but they aren't growing on me or the crowd. They suck, and the Dudebusters? They are glorified jobbers.
Evan Bourne defeated Zack Ryder
The main event on Superstars doesn't get enough attention. There have been some solid matches on Superstars and this one was definitely a good one. Evan Bourne took a lot of punishment from Ryder and in the end Ryder made a crucial mistake, he fell off the top rope, or rather was thrown off and out came the Shooting Star Press and Bourne takes out Ryder. A great overall contest with some big moves, a good pace, and of course the Shooting Star Press.

Eddie Edwards defeated Frank Freddie
Kenny King defeated Delirious
Jay Briscoe defeated Claudio Castagnoli
Mark Briscoe defeated Chris Hero
Ring of Honor 8/4/10 Review
I promised some more Ring of Honor coverage, and the delay this week was due to the fact that I had to get my hands on some ROH, so it took me an extra day. I think I finally got it all figured out and will be adding ROH to my line up of reviews I do. this show aired 8/4/10 but I'm not sure when it was taped or anything like that. I don't have a lot of information on ROH and if you want to fill me in email me or hit me up on aim (thecorporatehero), just don't be a jerk about it. So here you go, my review of ROH television.
The Dark City Fight Club defeated Mr. Ernesto Osiris & Shawn Daivari
There is a tag team tournament going on called tag wars, and it's awesome to see a promotion actually enjoy watching tag team wrestling. The match started on the outside with both teams fighting each other and going at it into the barricades. This match had a few bad looking botches, but the Dark City Fight Club was quite good and reminded me of the Eliminators in ECW, and won with a combination neck breaker powerbomb, which was quite good. This match was standard wrestling fair, but it was cool to see tag teams represented as more than just "hot shotted" idiots.
The Eddie Edwards Ten Minute Hunt began, and the television champion Eddie Edwards wanted to see if anyone could fight him and defeat him. Not a bad thing, I can see a Ultimate warrior run down and win.
Eddie Edwards defeated Frank Freddie
I think the new comer said his name was Frank...or something...I don't know. The match started with Edwards pummeling the newcomer. Frank had some nice moves, and was hitting Edwards with some solid hits and moves, but thinks turned around after a flurry of offense from the new comer. Eddie Edwards caught Frank off the top rope with a powerbomb and turned it into a half-Boston Crab while kicking him in the head. They called it the Achilles Lock, and it was quite the submission, wow, not a bad match.
Kenny King defeated Delirious
Austin Aries was supposed to battle Delirious but he came out to the ring and said that he couldn't wrestle because he had laringitis. So he found a replacement, the young Kenny King. Kenny King won this match with what was called the Shotgun Knees. Austin Aries distracted Delirious by blowing smoke in his face and then distracting him in ring, and that was that.
Jay Briscoe defeated Claudio Castagnoli
A very nice back and forth match up with Claudio looking like one heck of a wrestler and Jay Briscoe looking like the second coming of PG-13, just sayin. Jay Briscoe hit a very nasty looking Death valley Driver right on Claudio's neck, and I thought this thing was done, but nope, Jay couldn't get the 3 count. Jay Briscoe won after reversing some pinfall attempts and that was that. This match wasn't terrible, but it wasn't a technical classic either.
Mark Briscoe defeated Chris Hero
Chris Hero looks to be ready for the big leagues, why he's not in TNA or WWE is beyond me. More than anyone else on the show he looks like he could fit in very well with the rest of the guys in the big leagues. This match was quite good, with lots of back and forth action, Hero looking like a champion, and Mark the sympathetic face outclassed by a more traditional pro-wrestler. Mark Briscoe won with a nice pinfall, and that was that.
Overall, this night of ROH wasn't half bad. I liked it. I'm not completely sold on the Briscoe Brothers, but there is some great tag team action, some good singles wrestling, and an overall good show. I didn't hate it, but that might be because I'm relatively new to watching ROH on a weekly basis, I might change my mind.

NXT 8/4/10 Results
Husky Harris defeated Kaval
McGulicutty defeated Lucky Cannon
Alex Riley defeated Percy Watson
The Miz defeated McGulicutty
NXT 8/4/10 Review
The Opening of NXT sucked. It featured a the rookies trying to impress this fat girl named Margarita...it was dumb.
Husky Harris defeated Kaval
This match was quite good for what it was. For being a rookie match, these two put on a good show, and Kaval was on point. The two were countering each others moves with relative ease. Kaval looked to have this thing won, but alas, Husky Harris put away Kaval with his finisher and this thing was over. These two are the best of NXT both season 1 and 2 in my view.
McGulicutty defeated Lucky Cannon
Another entertaining match, with some simple moves and great overall style. I liked it. I think he beat Lucky Cannon...I don't know who some of these guys are, even after watching for so long.
Alex Riley defeated Percy Watson
Riley is also a tough one and I'd peg him as #3. Watson's showmanship and funny tactics are going to leave him out. He's not growing on me any longer. He lost with some rookie mistakes.
The Miz defeated McGulicutty
The Miz didn't just roll over here, he actually took some offense, and it was interesting to see how this one would play. After some nice action, it was the Miz that went over, and rightfully so.
Overall this night of NXT wasn't halfway bad, and I actually enjoyed watching it, even with the crappy intervals and stupid opening.

WWE Monday Night Raw 8/2/10 Results
Edge vs. Wade Barret
Tamina, Alicia Fox, and Jillian defeated Eve, Natalya, and Gail Kim
John Cena defeated Chris Jericho
Great Khali defeated Ted Dibiase
Randy Orton defeated The Miz
WWE Monday Night Raw 8/2/10 Review
Quick sidenote before I begin my review. I would like to recommend the latest album from Against ME "White Crosses" available now, it's classic, and you'll like it. Order it here for as low as $5.
Edge started the show. He challenged Barret to a fight later tonight, then out came R Truth. Truth was trying to get Edge on his side, but it didn't look so good.
Edge vs. Wade Barret
Uh...nothing really happened in this match. Edge looked like he had this boring match won. But after hitting the Edge-ecution, Wade got to his senses and escaped the ring before he got hit with the spear. The rest of Nexus ran down and saved him, getting Edge to run away.
I guess the match ends in a no contest? What the heck? I hate this BS.
The Summerslam rewind was awesome! Mr. Perfect vs Bret Hart was such a classic. NO CURRENT MATCH is close to being as good! NONE!
Tamina, Alicia Fox, and Jillian defeated Eve, Natalya, and Gail Kim
I'm tired of the divas, aren't you? Why do they even try? I am so sick of women's wrestling in the WWE. There was some insane botches in this match, and Alicia Fox won...so boring, and so terrible. How can women wrestlers BOTCH so much?
Melina came down and roughed up Alicia Fox. I hate Melina.
Sheamus defeated Goldust
Sheamus made quick work of Goldust. Sure Goldust wasn't completely buried, but might as well. This match sucked, I wish Goldust would get a better shake, but alas.
Sheamus got on the mic...ugh...so sick of Sheamus.
John Cena defeated Chris Jericho
This match sucked. NO, not even Chris Jericho could make Cena have a good match. Jericho is great, if he is in a quality program, but this CENA thing is stupid. SUPER CENA rolled through this match after his normal spots and reversals. The crowd was all Cena in this one. Jericho tapped faster than fast, before Cena could even fully lock in his STF. Jericho quit basically. But oh well. This match sucked. I'm sick of Cena, Sick of Jericho phoning it in.
John Cena asked Jericho to reconsider his position and stay with team Cena, but Jericho walked away! YES! YES YES! JERICHO IS DONE AND OUT! GOOD FOR HIM!
The new cena movie sucks.
Great Khali defeated Ted Dibiase
This match sucked. Dibiase got buried here by Khali. They are trying to make Khali a huge part of the SS main event, and well...it was odd. I remember when he was just a glorified jobber.
Randy orton defeated The Miz
The Miz was fighting hard in this one, and for once, I was actually convinced that the dude doesn't suck. He's actually quite good, and he's moving forward quite well. Orton was not his dominant self, he was fighting to retain some sort of resemblance to the legend killer status. However, just when I thought Miz had this one in the bag, out came the RKO and MIZ was out cold.
Sheamus ran down to the ring but Orton was ready and this night of wrestling was over.
Another ok Raw, but most of it sucked.
I don't like the way they are going with it, but the main event was a quality match with a nice ending, albeit fast and with no major pay off.
