WWE Monday Night Raw 8/30/10 Review

I'm tired. I'm really tired. But the 900th episode of Raw awaited me, so after a cup of coffee and a cup of tea, I'm ready to watch and review this piece of trash!

I'm tired.

900 EPISODES! WOOO!

Bret Hart started the show in ring talking...Kane came out and started talking and what not...who cares? This was more like the south park parody.

Kane attacked Bret, but out came Tyson Kid and the lights went out! Undertaker showed up to stop him, while Bret got out of the way. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT EITHER KANE OR THE UNDERTAKER! I DO NOT CARE WHATSOEVER! THIS FEUD IS SO TIRED AND STUPID! GET THEM OFF MY TV PLEASE!

THe GM made a match, with Bret Hart facing the Undertaker later tonight. I can't possibly see this go down....we'll see.

Alex Riley & The Miz defeated Kaval & Daniel Bryan and Kofi Kingston & Michael McGullicutty in a triple threat tag team match

I'm not sure why this match was booked, as it really didn't showcase all the guys that well. If nothing else it was interesting to see Daniel Bryan mixing it up in there, as he realy does have a lot of wrestling talent. The match was ok, but I can't stand Michael Cole's new heel role. THis match didn't really go far, and the crowd wasn't all for it, as I wasn't. THe match had a few good spots towards the end, mainly with Kaval looking to get the win, but it was The MIz that got the win after Kaval hit his finisher. The Miz hit the Skull Crushing Finale, and Kavel was out. Cole was marking out like a school girl....I'm sick of hearing COle...someone fire him PLEASE!

Post match, Daniel Bryan was hit with the briefcase and knocked out by Miz. This feud brewing could be the best thing WWE does in a long time.

Melina & Eve defeated Laycool

I think it was eve...I don't remember all the divas. Melina won this one, and it was fine by me. Melina sucks...I hate the divas, and you should too. There are NO good women's prowrestlers on mainstream wrestling right now.

Laycool challenged Melina...I was tired.

John Morrison & R Truth vs Drew McIntyre & Dashing Cody Rhodes (no contest)

This match didn't happen. There was a brawl and that was that. NO Contest? Whatever.

The Undertaker vs Bret Hart vs Wade Barrett (no contest)

Bret Hart came out to wrestle Undertaker, and before the match could start out came Wade Barrett. He said that he wanted to be in the match...so he jumped into this one and made it a triple threat. Oh boy....

Barrett got beat up, then was sent to the outside, and out of the blue came Kane when the lights went out and came on...Undertaker and Kane brawled....I guess the match is over?

I'm sick of these no finishes.

After Kane ran away from another light switch problem, Nexus surrounded the ring and were ready to Attack the Undertaker. Taker held his own but the Numbers seemed to be getting the best of him as the lights went out and guess what?!? Barrett Had Undertaker in his finisher and that was that.

Kane was on the stage looking on....terrible terrible booking.

Jack Swagger defeated Evan Bourne

Evan Bourne was buried here. NO, do not argue with me, he got buried by Jack Swagger. Who cares.

Alberto Del Rio got on the mic and cut a promo on Rey? But why? He then got into the ring and beat up Evan Bourne. Yep. That was that. Mark Henry came out and saved him...oh man, this was bad too.

CM Punk came out and cut a promo on how people have ruined Raw with reckless behavior and what not...they showed clips.

Stone Cold's music hit...but he didn't show.

I'm tired. THis is just filler...CM Punk is ok, but when not wrestling or in a feud with anyone but the Big Show, I don't care.

Big Show came out and cut a counter promo. He then beat up Luke Gallows and that was that.

NEXUS defeated Chris Jericho, John Cena, Sheamus, Randy Orton, Edge in an Elimination Match

Remember when someone high up in the WWE said that the Survivor Series concept was over? Yeah, well, it apparently seemed to work for Summerslam and now on Raw.

Jericho quit the match, he just walked away and got counted out. Edge got himself disqualified by pushing the ref. John Cena came in and did his super cena thing....YAWN.

SUPER Orton singlehandedly survived until he had to face Wade Barrett.

Wade Barrett won though...and Nexus won. Yep.

I do not get this booking. Cena defeated Nexus at Summerslam after taking a DDT to the FLOOR! Here he loses to Gabriel's finisher? Orton, on the other hand, RKO's everyone but can't get out of Barrett's finisher?

Is Orton not as good as Super Cena?

Is Super Cena not as good as he was at Summerslam?

This was 5 vs 5 and the odds were somehow better for Cena?

I'm lost. I hated this Raw.

Sorry, this 900th episode sucked. Face it.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown 8/27/10 Review

Kane defeated Rey Mysterio

This match sucked. I'm sick of seeing Rey Mysterio buried, I'm sick of seeing sucky ass Kane winning, and I'm sick of the Undertaker feud. This match was ok at best, but it was just another rehashing of matches that they previously had. This sucks.

Alberto Del Rio beat up Rey Mysterio after the match. I like him, he's a great heel at this point, someone you'd pay to see get beaten up.

CM Punk defeated JTG

This was an overtly easy match for Punk. Punk beat JTG without even trying very hard. Punk hit the Anaconda Vice on JTG and made him tap. I didn't hate this match, but I knew it was a squash.

Oh and by the way, Sarena is fired from WWE, I'll miss her big boobs on my screen every friday.

Kofi Kingston defeated Dolph Ziggler via countout

This was stupid. Yes, there were some great spots in this match, and yes these guys work well together, but I've already seen this match several times before. I didn't reallys ee the point of seeing it again, especially since I no longer care. This match eventually broke down with some impact and Dolph Ziggler lost via count out. NOt an epic, but I guess it worked for what it was. I am sick of this feud.

Jack Swagger defeated MVP via disqualification

This match was going relatively well, good back and forth action, with some nice moments, but then it went to hell. MVP apparently hit Swagger with a punch that caused him to lose the match. This was supposed to be a real "wrestling" match, but instead it was just stupid. WWE is just phoning it in at this point, it's painfully obvious.

ALberto Del Rio defeated Jobber #993

I hate jobber matches. This is what it was. It was a jobber match. I think he has a lot of talent, but until he's in a good feud, this is just stupid.

The Big Show defeated Luke gallows

This was a throwaway match. Luke Gallows went down fast with a punch to the face. I hated it. Big Show is tough, but does anyone care about this crap? I don't.

The end of the show was Kane and Undertaker talking back and forth and you know what? I don't give a flying you know what...who cares? These guys have already wrestled a million times, and they both suck now, so let's stop rehashing old storylines!

Smackdown completely sucked this week, and dare I say was WORST than TNA IMPACT. There I said it. WWE is phoning it in badly.

TNA Impact 8/26/10 Review

The show started with a recap of Fortune. I liked how they edit it all together, because it makes it far more important than it really is. They actually make it seem interesting, dare I say, worthwhile to watch?

Then things go to crap.

Dixie Carter is going to the ring!

Dixie in ring said that TNA has never been so successful...which is odd, because their ratings are at 1.0 which is what they were doing several years ago. She called out Ric Flair.

Ric Flair was ready to punch Dixie but out came Dixie's Real Life Husband? Yeah, apparently Dixie's Husband came out and Flair was going to whip him with his belt like they did with David Flair, but HOgan and his men came out...what a terrible segment.

Hogan came out and basically challenged FLair's guys with a group of psuedo Heels....and that was that..Fortune fought HOgan's idiots.

Samoa Joe defeated Orlando Jordan

Samoa JOe is back, and he's still fat. Joe sucks. Orlando Jordan went from being a major player in TNA, freaking out his opponents to getting squashed (no pun intended) by Samoa Joe. This match was stupid, and I'm tired of Orlando Jordan's character. This sucked. You didn't like it, you didn't care. FIRE JOE. Let him go serve tables at Applebees with Justin Credible.

Kevin Nash defeated Double J

Kevin Nash and Jarrett? Ugh...TNA basically screwed me over here. Both of these guys are far beyond their prime. I don't want to see either one of these guys wrestle. If you've seen 1 Kevin Nash match in TNA you've seen them all, and this was no different. A ref bump helped Sting interfere in this match and Nash wins. This match was worst than anything in WCW, there, I said it. STING SUCKS now, NASH IS OLD, JARRETT SUCKS TOO, this match was the dumbest thing I've seen in a long time in TNA or the old WCW.

Sting was beating up Jarrett when Hogan came in from behind and hit Sting with a chair. Yep....A Sting vs. Hogan feud? I'm sick of this stupid booking! How is this HELPING THE YOUNGER GUYS???

Beer Money defeated The FBI

I liked this match. I was surprised to see the FBI tonight against Beer Money. Despite the dominant BEER MONEY team, this match was further proof that if done right, the tag team division can be worthwhile. I liked the match, and thought that the FBI still had some fight in them. I think that with more teams, TNA has a winning combination, if they don't screw it up somehow.

Angelina Love and Velvet Sky were talking in ring? Ugh...they are going to be friends now? This is stupid...I hate this.....

The Motor City Machine Guns defeated The Young BUcks

Once again, the TNA tag division shows us that anything is possible. I thought this was the best tag team match I've seen in a long time. Seriously, this is the best tag team wrestling, even if it is all high spots. Sure, there's a lot of spots, and a lot of it has no in ring psychology, but still, it was fun to watch. If they can combine some psychology with all the spots, the TNA tag division might save the company. That's my two cents. Spot after spot, this match thrilled the fans, and after the smoked settled from so many high risk moves, the Motor City Machine Gun won this match.

Abyss fought EV2 backstage and into the arena. Abyss sucks.

Kurt Angle, The Pope, Jeff Hardy, and Anderson defeated Kaz, Aj Styles, Matt Morgan, and Douglas Williams

Jeff Hardy is getting fat. Angle is being hot shotted to the World Title. Anderson is stale. And fortune? Lame. This match was ok, I don't mind 8 man tags every now and again, unlike WWE which throws one at you at ever show, so it seems. This match showcased more tag team supremacy with Fortune working like a well oiled machine compared to the good guys, which struggled to get hot tags and maintain good action in this match up. This match ended with a lot of finishing moves, and bodies everywhere. Pope got a blind tag after an Angle Slam and pinned Kaz for the win.

The thing that was funny was that Angle was mad at the Pope. Why would he be mad? They were trying to win as a team, against Fortune, why would he be mad? They won? Is his EGO that big? Is he trying to be heel? This makes absolutely no sense.

Post match the rest of Fortune ran down and beat up the good guys. This was stupid. Is this WCW NITRO? Again? EV2 came running down too. This was a huge melee ending, and it was exactly why WCW started to fail. Sabu hit the worst spot I've seen in a long time, and threw Williams through a table, or rather jumped on him. The show ended with all the guys brawling....I hate TNA.

NOT a complete loss, but definitely a weak showing from the #2 pro-wrestling company, and it's even more unfortunate that the #2 company sucks so bad compared to WWE. Not to say that WWE is so good, because they have their problems too.

On a final note.

Condolences go out to the family of Luna Vachon. She passed away this week. Another wrestling death...she wasn't even 50 years old. sadly, her house and all her possessions burned down, and she was found dead at her mother's house. Sadly, all my childhood memories are dying....Luna, from what I hear was a friendly face and great person to talk to outside of the ring, and was NOT like her character. mad Dog must be sad too.

WWE Superstars 8/26/10 Review

I'm sorry for the delays, I'm battling a cold, and there's been wild fires near my home, so the smokey air has played havoc on my eyes and senses. I'll try to be more precise in timing. Also, I might be interested in a "news" guy. If you feel like you can give me some wrestling news to post with witty comments that are some times going to offend, send me an email with your name, interest, and what kind of time frame you have. Rumors, news, rants, whatever, let me know what you have in mind. You won't get paid, You won't get laid, but you'll be one of the members of an exclusive club of wrestling writers...The Sir Jorge WWE crew. If I ever make a penny, I'll cut you in, until then, it would be a labor of love. Which is why I'm still doing the site. email me at sirjorge AT gmail dot com if you're interested.

Here's my superstars commentary.

Let me preface my review by stating that Superstars is the WWE versino of WCW Thunder, with one exception: NO MAJOR STORY LINE FOR PPV forwards from the show. At least Thunder had some good matches and would help the ppv's. I personally loved the Raven vs. DDP feud and that spilled into PPV, as the flock attacked both Chris Benoit and DDP, just to remind you.

William Regal defeated Goldust

For purists, this match was quite good, and the crowd seemed to be into it as well, unless the crowd noise was piped in on the production side. Regal did his ground based attack and Goldust stuck to his mixture of spots, but it was Regal that managed to get the win with a knockout knee lift. Not a crazy match, but an adequate one, with a good amount of hard hitting action. Regal might be on his way back to the big leagues, but time will tell.

The Dudebusters defeated Archer & Hawkins

These two teams are a terrible example of what the tag team division has become. Sure, it'd be nice to get more tag teams in the WWE, but this is all the WWE can offer? I'd rather not have a tag division, if this is how convoluted it is. I don't care if every tag match is the same, if they could just make interesting tag teams, I'd watch none the less...but alas....it just isn't happening. The Dudebusters win, but who cares?

Drew McIntyre defeated Chris Masters

Chris Masters hasn't been relevant for a long time. It's a shame because he was actually not half bad when he was on the juice. Now that he's not on the juice as much, he's just not that exciting, and to see Drew McIntyre winning over him, was not fun. I don't like DREW, and I am tired of seeing him wrestle. Drew wins with the Future Show DDT which was interesting to say the least.

WWE NXT 8/24/10 Review


NXT really was terrible.

The show started with the rookies talking and random crap...I was tired.

The show then progressed into a TRIVIA contest...I kid you not.

Cody Rhodes defeated MVP

This match was longer than average matches on NXT and was the ONLY match on NXT. Cody put on a good overall match up and actually had MVP's number on this one. MVP was able to hit some good overall moments, but Cody managed to win this one with CrossRhodes. I liked this match enough, and it's a shame that more wrestling doesn't occur on NXT.

What a waist of time.
