While a lot of people are talking about Jeff Hardy and Matt Hard right now, there once was a couple of brothers that had a great run against each other. They even squashed their beef inside a WWF Title match inside a Steel cage!
Before it got that bad, Bret Hart and Owen Hart had one heck of a match at Wrestlemania X. That night seems to be remembered not for Bret Hart wrestling twice that night, but for Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon stealing the show in an Interconinental Ladder Match! Little known fact...Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels wrestled in a ladder match that was only available through Coliseum Video.
Whatever the case is, here is the original brothers feuding...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 2/28/09 Results and Review The Brothers Hardy
The show started of with John Cena…lame.
The Colons defeated The Miz & John Morrison
Apparently the titles were on the line? This is the first time I’ve seen The Colon’s look strong and walk out victorious on smackdown. The two put up a good match up against the better team, and actually stole one, yeah, ,they stole one. Carlito picked up the victory after the back cracker, and got his woman back. The match took a little while, considering that they don’t usually put that much time into matches these days. I really thought this match was well done, and it’s a shame that it doesn’t happen more often. The Colons are still champs, although the titles should be unified so that only 1 team is the highest.
Vladimir Kozlov defeated The Undertaker
This match was quite the match up, and I guess we won’t need to see Undertaker and this dude at Wrestlemania now right? The match was intense, with a lot of moments going to Undertakers, tired bag of moves, and thins were going very well indeed for the Deadman. He eventually got up to the top rope and was ready to drop a lariat off the top, but was caught midway by Kozlov into a powerslam! He hooked the leg, and it was all over. That’s right, Kozlov has defeated The Undertaker clean! This is the second shocker of the week! I didn’t think Christian would lose on ECW and he did, and I didn’t think Undertaker would lose clean to Kozlov but he did. Wow, WWE is throwing some curve balls at me, and I’m starting to dig Smackdown. A good overall match, it was given time to develop, and I liked it. I still can’t believe Kozlov won without cheating or anything. A shocker indeed.
Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy were supposed to wrestle, but nothing happened. Jeff went to ringside, then walked away, and that was it. Lame. What a build up through advertising, for nothing.
Chavo Guerrero defeated Shelton Benjamin (non title match)
Chavo gets a nod in the right direction. This was a quick match up and the story wasn’t that great in the ring. The major story here was that Chavo was thrown into MVP, forcing a quick distraction as Shelton Benjamin tried to role up Chavo, only to lose in a reversal. Post match, MVP hit the Drive By on Benjamin, and the two are set on a path for a nice collision in the near future.
Big Show defeated John Cena
It was hard for me to get into this match up. I already saw these two wrestle at Wrestlemania and Cena won. Cena won the US Title off of big show, to be exact. This match was actually not half bad, and Big Show knows what to do with his huge frame. I actually started to believe the impossible, maybe Cena will lose for a change. Then he was mounting a come back and even did the Attitude Adjuster on Big Show! I thought this match was in the bag for Cena, then a quick distraction from Edge led to Big Show hitting Cena in the face with a closed fist, a chokeslam and BOOM. Big Show defeated John Cena with a pinfall.

TNA Impact 2/2609 Results and Review The Main Event Mafia Saga
I didn’t want to review TNA this week, because I’m so jaded. TNA hasn’t had a whole lot to offer in a long time. However, tonight, I thought something might happen, so I tuned in and here is what I saw.
The Beautiful People defeated Madison Rayne & Taylor Wilde
I’m not sure why, but I always think that The Beautiful People have been in porno movies. They just have that “porno” quality to me. I guess hat’s a good thing in regards to keeping me watching, good job Tna? This match was not half ad, the women in TNA can actually wrestle and they know a little bit about in ring psychology, which is something that is missing from a lot of wwe diva matches. Madison Rayne looks like a mix of Jenna Jameson and Jenny McCarthy, and officially turned heel after slapping Taylor Wilde, letting The Beautiful People pick up the victory.
Beer Money defeated The Rock N Rave Infection
What can I say? Beer Money has to be the best tag team in wrestling right now. They work well togther, they cheat to win, and they work stiff if need be. The majority of their matches usually end with something going awry for the other team, but overall, these guys are like a well oiled machine, and it’s something that TNA can capitalize on. WWE does not have a good tag team division, but if TNA could make the tag teams as important as the rest of the roster, we could see a huge upgrade of viewers of the product. I know I remember when WWF released The Best of WWF and it was all tag matches, that was interesting to me, and I would still watch tag teams if they were as good as Beer Money. Alas, that’s not going to happen anytime soon.
Sojourner Bolt & Rhaka Khan defeted Awesome Kong & Raisha Saeed
The Knockouts once again shined in this match up. The second on the show, and it wasn’t bad. Bolt seemed to be trying too hard, slipping up here and there. Khan is not ready for this level of involvement as she was looking green out there. Saeed, I bet is sexy under all that mystery, just a quick note. The match was good and fast, the spots weren’t insane, but overall, this was a good match up, better than any wwe divas match, that’s for sure. Bolt got the pin with a backslide, pinning combination.
Alex Shelley defeated Lethal Consequences and Chris Sabin in a 4 way ladder match
This match was too short. There weren’t many high spots, no bloodshed, and not a whole lot to this match up. It was obviously shorted because it was on television and no on ppv. The match went on and the guys tried to do their best, but it just wasn’t enough. Shelley sprinted up to the top, pulled the belt and successfully defended his x-division title. This match should’ve been given the full last section of the show or a ppv match up.
The whole show ended with a terrible contract signing. This show ended so bad that I wanted to just fall asleep.

ECW on Scifi 2/23/09 Results and Review
Mark Henry defeated Dj Gabriel
As soon as Mark Henry was announced as the guy who would fight Dj Gabriel, I knew things were going south for the Alex Wright wannabe. Mark Henry took a few moments to drop Dj and then hit the World’s Strongest Slam, and it was all over. Goodnight and Good luck Dj Gabriel. He’s not dancing now.
Tyson Kidd defeated Matt Boyce
What an easy victory for Tyson Kidd. The match was ok, but it was another jobber match. I don’t really see the point, I don’t think that this is the way you get talent over. He should wrestle someone more relevant, instead of these random no name idiots. Kidd once again looks crisp in ring, but he hasn’t had a real test yet.
Tommy Dreamer defeated Paul Burchill
Give The Boogeyman the assist in this match up, that featured Tommy Dreamer finally picking up a victory! That’s right, Tommy Dreamer finally gets a victory, getting the better of Burchill. The match was one sided, and it really took off when Boogeyman grabbed Katie Lea from under the ring! This gave enough of a distraction to let Dreamer get the victory. Is this the beginning of a comeback before Tommy Dreamer retires ECW Champion? I don’t know.
Jack swagger defeated Christian
What a match! This was an instant classic, the match took about half the show, and was good overall for Christian. Christian made Swagger work more than any other opponent in recent times. This was an interesting match up as time went on, and the crowd was turning red hot. Christian favored his shoulder towards the end, but he was doing everything he could as fast as he could to get a win. I kid you not, this is the best match I’ve seen in WWE in a long time. Christian and Swagger went back and forth in a match that you would swear was from the mid 90’s as Christian was working like he was about to win the world title at Wrestlemania. Christian was going for his finishing move but the shoulder got in his way and Jack Swagger hit the gutwrench powerbomb and defeats Christian clean! Best match up I’ve seen in a long time, seriously, this was a good one.

WWE Monday Night Raw 2/23/09 Results and Review The Hunt
The show opened up with Vickie Guerrero announcing that she is now the official Raw General Manager. Man, she’s getting more screen time than Eddie Guerrero (rip) ever did. I guess that’s a good thing for her family, but what about the kids? Why doesn’t anyone think of the kids? Whatever. John Cena came down the ramp to interrupt, and the crowd wasn’t completely booing here, once again Cena is getting that fan favorite status because he’s working with people that have so much heat, that even he looks great to adult and smart fans. Edge came out to yell at Cena, after Cena wanted a title match for later in the night.
Who needs the wwe draft? Screw the draft, and just have the talent work both shows. It works each time, and with the champions going back and forth, the tag teams going back and forth, and so many different talented workers going both shows, this could be a great thing. It worked for wcw in the late 90’s, wwe could do it too; assuming they don’t implode. The wwe doesn’t follow it’s own set aside rules concerning the draft, so why even continue to have talent brand separation? It makes no sense right now, and the next match once again illustrates the point.
Cm Punk defeated The Miz & John Morrison in a triple threat match
Cm Punk basically fought a handicap match against the tag team champions. While I never agree with the tag champions losing in a math together, I accepted this one for wha it was, because both The Miz and Morrison were fighting each other to get the pin. The match had great spots featuring Punk getting the upper hand with double moves. Best spot was definitely the bulldog to clothesline combination he hit on miz and Morrison, great stuff indeed. Punk defeats both guys in this triple threat match and he’ll go on to wrestlemania and wrestle in the Money in the Bank match.
Melina & Cryme Tyme defeated Santino, Dolph Ziggler, and Beth Phoenix
This match started off a little slow, and overall it was ok. Ziggler seemed interesting, like a throwback to an older state of wrestling. He could go far just on looks alone, but not with that goofy gimmick. Santino wouldn’t tag in, which made for comical exchanges between him and Ziggler. Santino finally got tagged in and was taken out by one move…sadly. Santino is funny, but he needs some wrestling skills to back his mouth up.
Shawn Michaels defeated JBL
It was announced during this match up that the winner would face Kozlov next week on Raw. Once again proving that the WWE does NOT need a draft. The match was a solid wrestling match, nothing too unexpected though. These two guys have formulaic matches, and HBK is becoming the new age Ric Flair, doing nothing new. At least when Bret Hart used to wrestle the same match, he would mix it up a little, it seems that there is nothing new with HBK. It’s still entertaining, and this match was a little longer than usual. Good stuff overall, a little shallow, but that’s that.
Mike Knox defeated Jamie Noble
Jamie Noble lost to Mike Knox in 29 seconds. What a waste of time. Noble should quit the WWE.
Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat was announced for the WWE Hall of Fame.
After the announcement was made Chris Jericho jumped out to get on the mic and verbally abuse Ricky Steamboat. He called him a loser and got even more heat from the crowd. I’m not sure where this is going, but Jericho better bet leading up to a match with someone in the hall of fame….say…Macho Man Randy Savage? It will never happen, but I’d pay good money to see it, if Macho could wrestle. I heard his back is messed up though.
John Cena defeated Chavo Guerrero
Once again, why have a draft? Whatever. John Cena made easy work out of Chavo Guerrero. It’s a sad thing to see such a talented wrestler, get such a bad shake of things. Chavo is a glorified jobber. By having Cena defeat him so quickly proves that Chavo isn’t ready to capture the U.S title on Smackdown and further proves that the WWE hates cruiserweights. Sadly, one of the worst things that happened to Chavo was the death of Eddie Guerrero, because Chavo sucks now…tremendously sucks.
Like the old west, there was a showdown in the ring at the end of Raw. Triple H came out to ringside with a sledge hammer and a back up sledge hammer and ran down Randy Orton and his cronies to the back of the arena! They kept running and Triple H gave chase until they seemingly were cornered!
This thing gt into comical places as Orton and Dibiase were chased out their Limousine. Triple H broke some glass, chased the idiots, and they fled in a car. That was the end of Raw…nothing more nothing less.
What is this wcw 2000? Come on man…what a stupid story line. Just have them fight already! Remember the Macho Man DDP feud? That is what we need.
