WWE WrestleMania 32 Predictions

Here we go, we are less than 1 day away from the big one, the granddaddy of them all. I went from having a living room full of fans, to having a living room full of cats, and since I have no friends and I’m not in Dallas, I’m going to watch on the WWE network. With that in mind, consider the following run down of the matches and my predictions overall.

Wrestlemania 32 Matches and my preditions (sir Jorge wwe)

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Triple H defeats Roman Reigns

What’s best for business? I’m going to say that Triple H is going to win yet again. Why? Because I was at Kroger this morning and he is on the cover of yet another men’s health magazine. Plus, Reigns is getting booed so badly, he’s got to lose, and not only that, he loses out of frustration. He just gives up, or he ends up losing because Triple H’s friends run deep.

Dean Ambrose defeats Brock Lesnar (No Holds Barred Street Fight)

Brock Lesnar was recently interviewed saying that Vince McMahon has cashed a lot of checks to get Lesnar to wrestle. Well guess what? He says he has reached his limit. Well, you know what? Dean Ambrose wins, Lesnar goes bye bye because he’s OVER RATED.

Shane McMahon defeats The Undertaker (Hell in a Cell Match)

Shane McMahon wins this one, simple as that. I don’t know why, don’t know how, but he’ll win.

Divas Champion Charlotte defeats Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks (Triple Threat Match)

Charlotte retains, it’s not time for her to lose the belt, that’s my 2 cents.

Intercontinental Champion Kevin Owens wins the ladder match

Kevin Owens wins, and milks the mania thing.

AJ Styles defeats Chris Jericho

AJ Styles wins, and Jericho retires.

The 3rd annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal will be won by Mark Henry

There’s not much to this except Henry is retiring.

The New Day defeats The League of Nations

The New Day will win again, and everyone will dance.

The Usos defeats The Dudley Boyz

The Usos will win, and the Dudleys will retire.

The Total Divas defeats B.A.D. & Blonde

The Bellas get one last ride before retirement.

United States Champion Kalisto defeats Ryback

Kalisto wins, I don’t care.

Overall, Wrestlemania has the weakest card since Wrestlemania 15 bored me to death. Will this be a great one? Or will it absolutely blow? I don’t know. I’m excited though, seriously, excited!

WWE NXT Takeover Dallas 4/1/2016 Results and Review

Here we go, WrestleMania weekend is here yet again and I’m back in action. First up I am going to talk about WWE NXT Takeover Dallas. I did not see this live, I had to watch it this morning before work. Last night I was doing anything else, since it was on a little too late for me on the East Coast. Now, in regards to this night of action, there’s a lot to say and some of it you may not like.

First and foremost, this was live from the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center which holds some 10,000 some odd individuals. I wanted to go, but I decided against it since I have no friends to meet up with, and well, that’s just my damn luck, right?

WWE NXT Takeover Dallas Review

American Alpha defeated The Revival for the NXT Tag Team Championship

This was a good overall match. I kept thinking that Kurt Angle should’ve come out to make American Alpha the new Team Angle, but that obviously didn’t happen. The Revival should get a call up to the main roster, I hope. They are crisp, even though there was one botch. This match was an energetic match with a lot of good spots, great tags, and excellent wrestling.

Austin Aires defeated Baron Corbin

I never liked Austin Aires. I think he’s a poor man’s CM Punk, and it showed here. Corbin is bland. This match ended in a roll up, and I didn’t even have a buzz yet. Not a good match. I don’t care about Aires, his attire sucks, and he needs something more to establish him.

Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Sami Zayn

Nakamura is a huge star in Japan. I don’t get it. Sure, he has a few cool points, but I think that Shinsuke Nakamura is OVER RATED. That’s right, he’s overrated. I don’t see the big deal. He had some nice counters but overall Zayn and his match is over rated, even if it did go 20 minutes. It’s a solid match, no doubt, but is it deserving of so much praise I’m hearing? Nope.

Asuka defeated Bayley for the NXT Women’s Championship

Asuka is really good, but this match seemed forced towards the end. Bayley passing out? Really? That’s it? This match was 15 minutes in length, and Asuka made Bayley fall asleep. This should set up a submission match for the title. I loved the dynamics in this match, but I don’t see these two women getting a shot at the main roster, as you may see that the main roster only books hotter women, just saying.

Finn Balor defeated Samoa Joe

The referees kept stopping the match for blood, that took away from the overall action. Samoa Joe is lean, and at his absolute best in NXT. He’s amazing now, compared to “fat” joe in TNA. This match was good, and Balor is a good overall wrestler, but his win shocked me. The match was good overall, and Joe really did a good job putting on the bad ass element. Overall, good match up, with some great spots.

Final Thoughts

Ok, Nakamura is still overrated. Sorry. I don’t see the appeal, especially since I’ve been watching wrestling since 1986 and have seen nearly every single Japanese wrestler come through WWF and WWE and even WCW and guess what? They don’t last. Maybe WWE will do well with him, but then again, remember Suzuki? There’s so many examples of misuse of Asian wrestlers, that I’m not sure WWE will make me care about Nakamura just yet. He’s ok, overrated at this point though.

The rest of the card was good. Good overall wrestling, and I didn’t care about story lines. If you’re a fan of pure wrestling, then of course this is a good show. Was it as stellar as Brooklyn? Maybe not. But it’s a good showing, and it really made me sad not to have friends and family that would go to WrestleMania. I feel even more alone in this world when I see 10,000 fans in a building, and yet I’m here in my living room alone and without friends. Sigh.

I loved it.

WWE Monday Night Raw 3/8/2016 Results and Review Leading To Roadblock 2016

The opening was ok. The best part of Raw’s opening was Shane McMahon beating up security guards. I’m sure they were indie wrestlers, but it was nice to see some aggression from Shane. Of course, this review of sorts is taken from the HULU version of Raw.

Kevin Owens defeated Neville

Not a bad match. Neville’s precision in doing high spots is absolutely second to none. He’s absolutely impressive. Owens is good, but wow, Neville made this an insane match. Owens wins with a roll up, boring.

Sami Zayn showed up to beat up Owens, but I’m not impressed. Last I saw Zayn, he messed up his shoulder against John Cena.

Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks defeated Tamina and Naomi

Short match, Lynch and Banks win. Charlotte comes out, who cares. So tired of this status quo.

The New Day defeated Chris Jericho and Aj Styles

Aj Styles has some of the most impressive offense, and no botches. The New Day has numbers in their corner, so they were able to pull it off. However, Styles put on a showcase of amazing moves, and great overall work. Jericho is still crisp at his age, wow. The New Day won, but not without a serious battle and some great reversals, and overall work. Great match up, too bad there wasn’t a title change. Jericho and Styles are once again at odds, expect a Wrestlemania match, from what I read online.

Dean Ambrose defeated Bray Wyatt by DQ 

And here was a good match, ended with a DQ. I'm starting to get really jaded about wrestling. I've hung in there a long time, but this stuff is getting really dumb. The Wyatt's are weak. They never win feuds and now I'm supposed to believe they have Ambrose's number? This feud already happened, with Wyatt losing.

Triple H came out, got a DDT for his walk out, and that's it. I'm starting to hate wrestling.

WWE Monday Night Raw 2/29/2016 Leap Year Edition

When will they start a Monday Night Raw that doesn’t have a long intro promo? This time around Triple H shows up and gets cheered. You can hear the audio has been messed with on the HULU version, which is the only way I can watch this right now. Triple H is to fight Dean Ambrose. That’s it.

Sasha Banks versus Becky Lynch

This match ended with both women pinned, so that means that no winner would be going to Wrestlemania? No, they’ll probably do a triple threat.

Stephanie McMahon’s speech went to hell. She started to talk random BS and the crowd let her have it. Boring. There’s a lot of talking on Raw these days, why not wrestle more? Just saying.

Y2AJ defeated The New Day

This was a good quality match, but was cut short somehow. Does this mean that AJ is going to end up getting swerved on by Y2J? Or will the New Day win next week? Not a bad match, not a great one, but it moved the point forward to yet another match with AJ Styles and Chris Jericho if you ask me.

Vince McMahon and the Undertaker got into the ring to talk, and wow, I wish I could earn a paycheck for working part time and just saying very little. Undertaker said he’ll hurt Shane, big deal.

The Big Show defeated Kevin Owens by count out

What a horrible display of a match. Even stevens booking huh? What a joke.

Dean Ambrose versus Alberto Del Rio No Contest

This match ended with Triple H coming down and then giving him a pedigree and setting up a match for the title. But who cares, right? I don’t know. The shovel is huge that Triple H carries, that’s all.

Raw was bad. Terrible. I’m not sure what to say. Ambrose is over, Reigns is not, that’s about it.
