WWE Smackdown Review 5/31/13

Note: This should be an interesting show. Why? Because all three members of The Shield will be in singles matches. Also this should be interesting for Team Hell No and also for the show itself. I am going to try to watch this show without all thr shit that makes this a recap show for WWE Raw. I know that's hard to do but I am willing to try to be objective and fair to this show. Here's WWE Smackdown.

Match#1: Kane vs. Seth Rollins
Winner: Kane
(This was very cool because this was actually an interesting match. Kane was not acting like an old man but he was actually going toe to toe with Rollins. It was not as bad as I expected because it was not like the match would end with a DQ. This was also a good way to setup the next match.)

Match#2: Roman Reigns vs. Daniel Bryan
Winnner: Roman Reigns by DQ
(Unlike the first match, this was almost a bad match. I would think after seeing the first match that this would have ended with a DQ. Also, my issue with this match was DB could have won this match easily. I know that DB is trying to get over but this is not the way to go. )

Match#3: Ryback vs. Kofi Kingston
Winner: Ryback
(Boring.....Boring.....The only good thing was Kofi sold all those powerbombs.)

Match#4: Big E Langston vs. Alberto Del Rio
Winner: Big E Langston
(This was SSDD in WWE. I know that Big E is replacing Ziggler until he is cleared to wrestle. Also I think it is time to admit that ADR is not a good face. He's ok at best. We all know that Big E will be face soon. Moving on. )

Match#3: Curtis Axel vs. Sin Cara
Winner: Curtis Axel
(I will admit that I changed the channel. I was watching a good movie on Encore. I changed it back long enough to see Axel win. This was boring. Why is Paul Heyman managing jobbers now? )

Match#5: Chris Jericho vs. Cody Rhodes
Winner: Chris Jericho
(I knew Y2J would win before seeing this match start. I watched the end on my movie and then put on my pjs. That tells you how bored I was to have seen this match. Cody is basically a jobber with a gimmick. Time to get to the end of the show.)

Main Event: Randy Orton vs. Dean Ambrose
Winner: Randy Orton by DQ
(I was excited to see this match. I was happy to see something fresh and different. I was disappointed because of the ending. Plus, I was also disappointed with the lack of a champion on Smackdown. WWE Raw did have Cena. Time for my final thoughts. )


Final Thoughts: No Ziggler! No Booker T.! Finally, no fucking action at all.......So you mean to tell me that Smackdown is going to be the second show because they have no champion or even someone that could carry this show. I know people will be talkig about DB but that was not the show. I am going to sleep on this and hope TNA will make this PPV very tolerable. See you all this weekend for TNA Slammaversary.

TNA Impact Review 5/30/13

Note: I really hope this is a good show. After seeing the hype for the PPV this Sunday, I hope to see something interesting. I do expect more from TNA with what they got but then again SSDD in wrestling is not just a WWE thing. So here's TNA Impact. 

Opening Segment: Bully Ray and Devon call out Sting and Joseph Park.
(When I was watching this, I imagined when Devon did all the talking and Bully Ray was silent. I miss those days. I was not a fan of the heel Bully Ray because it was too easy to go heel. I also think it was stupid to make this match the first one. But at least we don't have to hear them bitch at the end of the show.)

Match#1: Devon and Bully Ray vs. Sting and Joseph Park
Winners: Sting and Joseph Parks 
(This whole match was stupid and quick. Sting cannot wrestle anymore. Joseph Park is getting lame. Aces and Eights is just 3D with the biker gimmick. Boring.......moving on. )

Match#2: Garrett Bischoff vs. Samoa Joe
Winner: Samoa Joe by Count Out
(This was technically not a match but I count it. I think it is fair to assume that Samoa Joe is back in the mid card. Moving on. )

Match#3: Bad Influence, Austin Aries, and Bobby Roode vs. Chavo, Hernandez, James Storm and Gunner
Winners: Chavo, Hernandez, James Storm and Gunner
(No comment. So disappointed. )

Match#4: Kenny King and Gail Kim vs. Taryn Terrell and Chris Sabin
Winners: Taryn Terrell and Chris Sabin
(No comment. So disappointed.)

Main Event: Mr. Anderson vs. AJ Styles
Winner: No Contest
(No comment. So disappointed.)


Final Thoughts: My god, this show sucked. No X Divsion match. No real KO match. This was basically two hours of filler for the PPV this weekend. I was so fucking disappointed to watch this shit. Especially now it went back to the 9pm to 11pm time slot on Thursday. TNA keeps going three steps back while trying to go foreward. See you all for WWE Smackdown.

WWE Raw Review 5/27/13 - Memorial Day Edition

Note: As we celebrate Memorial Day in the USA, I find it interesting to have a show in Canada. No matter why they did this, I find it insulting to the American fans to showcase a show in another country. This is a holiday that Americans value. After last week's show, it was someone's bright idea to do this show from Canada. So we all know that this is to celebrate Bret Hart but my question is why. So let's watch and find out why. Here's WWE Raw

Opening Segment: The WWE Champion John Cena hits the ring and says it feels like a lot of unrest in the building tonight. A lot of unrest, anxiety and maybe a little anger. Cena talks about Ryback, the WWE Title and the Ambulance Match at Payback. A loud "we want Bret" chant breaks out and Cena acknowledges it. Cena says Ryback never thinks things through and thought too quickly when it comes to the Payback challenge. Cena says he's had a week to think it through. He says Payback should be hell. Cena announces the main event will now be Three Stages of Hell - a Lumberjack Match, a Tables Match and an Ambulance Match. Ryback comes out and is confident about the match change. Ryback says for Cena to get ready to meet Satan.
(This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............This was fucking boring........This was boring..............Moving on.)

Match#1: Alberto Del Rio vs. Big E Langston
Winner: Alberto Del Rio
(The only reason why we are seeing these matches is because Ziggler is healing. I am not mad at WWE for doing this but then again I hope they don't strip Ziggler of the WHC. These matches are good because of the balance of strength of Big E vs. the heart of Del Rio. So with that said, this was a good match to start the show but it would be better shown on WWE Smackdown not on WWE Raw. )

Match#2 - WWE United States Title Match: Kofi Kingston vs. Dean Ambrose
Winner: Dean Ambrose
(SSDD in action. We all know that Ambrose is going to hold the title long enough to appease the fans of The Shield. So why are we seeing this match over and over? Because Kofi is popular with kids. While Amborse is popular with the adults. SSDD is big in WWE. )

Match#3 - WWE Tag Team Title Match: Kane and Daniel Bryan vs. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins
Winners: Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns
(SSDD in action. We all know that Reigns and Rollins are going to hold the title long enough to appease the fans of The Shield. So why are we seeing this match over and over? Because Team Hell No is popular with kids. While Rollins and Reigns are popular with the adults. SSDD is big in WWE. See what I just did, I use the same comments, in this match because WWE is big on SSDD.)

Match#3: Fandango vs. Wade Barrett
Winner: Fandango
(No comment on this match. I think WWE is running out of ideals for both men. )

Match#4: 3MB vs. The Great Khali, Brodus Clay and Tensai
Winners: The Great Khali, Brodus Clay and Tensai
(What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Moving on. )

Match#5: Kaitlyn and Natalya vs. The Bella Twins
Winners: The Bella Twins
(What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? You put Natalya on TV and make her job to the skinny bitches. What is wrong with you WWE? Nice way to fuck up her birthday. What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?)

Match#6: Randy Orton and Sheamus vs. Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow
Winners: Sheamus and Randy Orton
(SSDD in back in effect in WWE. Why are we seeing the same matches every week? What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?)

Main Event: Curtis Axel vs. John Cena
Winner: Curtis Axel by Count Out
(The memes of this match should be legendary. This was so boring that I fell asleep. I had to watch the end off of DVR. What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Time to end this blog.)

Final Thoughts: I hated that WWE was plugging the damn app they have. However, the app came in handy for seeing the shit after the show with Bret Hart, Chris Jericho, and Shawn Michaels. This show was better to watch in segments. As a whole it was SSDD in motion. Same shit just different day. See you all for TNA Impact...........What the fuck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

WWE Smackdown Review 5/24/13

Note: After seeing TNA's weekly show and seeing something creative and different, now it is time to pray that WWE Smackdown does not end up showing recaps of WWE Raw and also recap SSDD matches. So unlike TNA, it is time for WWE Smackdown to have a seperate identity from WWE Raw. Something is better than nothing.....here WWE Smackdown. 

Opening Segment: The Miz does another MizTV segment with Fandango and Summer Rae. Miz announces he will do MizTV and then win the Intercontinental Title tonight. Wade Barrett interrupts and starts running down Fandango and threatens him. Miz and Barrett start brawling and we have tonight's first match.

(So let's see where to start in this shitty start to the show.....I don't care about Fandango. I don't care about his tart. I find it funny that Wade Barrett is back to feuding with The Miz. Also why is Barrett being dissed? The IC title use to have meaning but now it is shit. What the fuck WWE? Nice way to start the show. ) 

Match#1: The Miz vs. Wade Barrett - Intercontinental Title Match

Winner: The Miz by DQ

(So WWE just fucked us over on a good rematch. We saw this match before the WM PPV. We saw it on the more popular show on WWE Raw after WM. This should have ended cleanly. Why is Fandango in this feud? This was a good match that fucked up the SSDD pattern. I guess WWE is running out of ideas for the IC title. What the fuck?) 

Match#2: Daniel Bryan vs. Jack Swagger

Winner: Daniel Bryan

(Well this was a better match to watch. I guess it is because this was better to watch than the shit before this match. This match had a flow. We all know that DB can wrestle and Swagger in his new gimmick can wrestle as well. I love that Swagger is trying to be a main eventer. I also love that even though they don't have the tag team titles, Team Hell No is still together. ) 

Match#3: Chris Jericho vs. Big Show

Winner: Chris Jericho by Count Out

(I wished this ended clean. We all know that both these men can go. Big Show is not a jobber. Same with Y2J. I love how WWE can fuck up a good thing. This match was classic because of the history with both Y2J and also Big Show. So the way they ended this match was fucked up. Fuck you WWE.)

Match#4: Curtis Axel vs. Sin Cara

Winner: Curtis Axel

(So this is how to bring back Sin Cara? Sin Cara is back to being a jobber with a cool gimmick. Curtis Axel is not at main event status yet but this match is not the best way to start the era of Hening. I'm sorry but this is almost as bad as when John Morrison stopped being Johnny Nitro.) 

Main Event Part One: Kofi Kingston vs. Dean Ambrose

Winner: Kofi Kingston by DQ

Main Event Part Two: The Shield vs. Kofi Kingston, Randy Orton and Sheamus

Winners: The Shield

(Well I was entertained with this whole mess of an ending. I think Teddy Long is a joke. We all know he was a decent ref but as a TV personality, it is sad to see him act hip. I am a fan of The Shield. I am happy to see them with titles. I think WWE can make these guys better but we all know how long that can last. This was a good match because the heels made it interesting. This went from a non title match to a six man brawl. We all know that Teddy Long has a hard on for tag matches. Good way to end the show. )

Final Thoughts: Well I will ignore the constant recaps of WWE Raw. I will ignore the bullshit with Cena and Ryback. I will also ignore the shit they pull. So the show was not bad as it might have been. I guess WWE Smackdown is trying to have a seperate identity from WWE Raw. We all know that Raw is the A show but no need to remind us on the other shows WWE produce. See you all for WWE Raw.......The main show.

TNA Impact Review 5/23/13

Note: I wish to say that I am excited to watch TNA tonight. I am fighting to stay a wrestling fan. I watched WWE to see SSDD. I watch TNA hoping to see something different but then again, I see SSDD but in a new pacakge. So when I watch this episode of TNA Impact, I hope to see something creative and different. With that said, let's watch TNA Impact and hope for something that will remind me why I am a wrestling fan.

Match#1: Joey Ryan vs. Petey Williams vs. Suicide
Winner: Suicide
(Will someone remind me why the X Division is not on every week? I love seeing these matches because this is why TNA is better than WWE. WWE gave up on the lighter guys. So TNA made a division and a title. So why is TNA fucking around with old WWE stars with issues? Watching this match would make me feel better. The whole show needs this and less bullshit. )

Match#2: Magnus vs. Wes Brisco
Winner: No Contest
(Really? Why did this not end with a winner? Because TNA is trying to make Aces and Eights the new NWO of TNA. I am a fan of Aces and Eights but I also love to see a winner. I guess it was a good thing because we all know that Brisco is still green and barely can wrestle.)

Match#3: Kurt Angle vs. Mr. Anderson
Winner: Mr. Anderson
(I am happy to see that Anderson won this match. Seeing Anderson in Aces and Eights is a set up because TNA did not have anything good for him as a single's wrestler. So watching this match was a throwback to old WWE. I think sometimes TNA cashes in on the old WWE guys because most of the guys that were in TNA cannot draw people. This was a so so match.)

Match#4: Mickie James vs. Velvet Sky for the Knockout Title
Winner and New Knockout Champion: Mickie James
(I had a feeling that this would happen. I knew that Mickie would have the title. So am I happy? Yes because Velvet was wrestling hurt and she was not drawing attention to the title. So it is good to see Mickie have the title again. Also means that we will see a possible feud with Gail Kim.)

Main Event: AJ Styles inducted into Aces and Eights.
(At first, I though this was going to happen. I was excited to see AJ be part of something different. However, it was a swerve. Not only did we see AJ take out Angle but also Aces and Eights. I would say that this is not the way to end the show. However, to end it like this was better than Aces and Eights cheering. So good job TNA.)

Final Thoughts: Well at least this show did not suck as bad as I assumed it would be. I wish they would showcase the X Division more. Also showcase other aspects of TNA and stop cramming Aces and Eights down our throats. I guess it is what it is for TNA. See you all for WWE Smackdown.

WWE Raw Review 5/20/13

Note: This is the show after the mediocre PPV. Basically this should be a better show. Mind you, that we did see The Shield take the mid card titles excluding the IC title. We also saw that Cena did not kick out of being smashed into a screen. Well we won't see Cena but we will see Ryback. Hopefully this might be better than the PPV. Here's WWE Raw.

Opening Segment: Ryback challenges Cena to a match at the next PPV. It will be for the title and also an ambulance match.
(So we gotta see this feud continue because Vince wants to make Ryback a creditable threat for Cena. We all know that Cena is not going to allow anything or anyone to mess up a title run unless Vince wants it. So please kill this shit before we all riot and want to see TNA. )

Match#1: Fandango and Wade Barrett vs. The Miz and Chris Jericho
Winners: The Miz and Chris Jericho
(What was the point of this match? I laughed because Fan-fairy was not into the match and let Barrett get jobbed. This wasn't boring but then again I rather wanted to see the crowd cheer for anything else but this match. Moving on.....)

Match#2: Sheamus vs. Titus O'Neal
Winner: Sheamus
(I will repeat the above question from the first match: What was the point of this match? I laughed because this was worse that the first match. This was almost as bad as watching D'Lo Brown wrestling in TNA. So again, moving on. )

Match#3: Alberto Del Rio vs. Big E. Langston
Winner: Big E. Langston
(So um, this was booked but unlike the two matches prior, this had meaning. I loved that Big E can basically powerlift the fuck anyone. This was sorta interesting because Big E killed the armbar and also had help to win. So if Big E can beat ADR then Ziggler could as well. We will see. )

Match#4: AJ Lee vs. Layla
Winner: AJ Lee
(This is one of the FAP matches of 2013. This match was suppose to me legit but this was really a cock tease for the men. I saw things that I wish to see over and over again. I love AJ's new finisher. The kicker was how Layla was tapping out of the move. All I gotta saw is dat ass on AJ is nice. )

Match#5: Zack Ryder vs. Cody Rhodes
Winner: Cody Rhodes
(This is true a WTF match. This was so quick that we did not get to see them enter the ring or be introduced. Cody won then Ryback came to kill Ryder. Zack Ryder needs to get the fuck out of WWE and go to TNA. At least he can be a midcarder with a purpose on TNA. )

Match#6: The Shield vs. Kofi Kingston and Team Hell No
Winners: The Shield
(This was the best fucking match of the night because The Shield and the other guys pulled off a good match. This was so bad ass that I did not change channels or go to the bathroom. I even watched the non tv bullshit on the WWE app. Daniel Bryan is a fucking genius. This man did some shit that he never done on TV before. It does help that he wrestled all three men of The Shield in the indys years ago. Kofi was Kofi and sold everything. Even Kane was acting like he was wrestling to keep his job. I hope this time around, we will see The Shield be the greatest team in WWE.)

Match#7: Jack Swagger vs. Randy Orton - WWE App Interactive Match
Winner: RKO
(Speaking of the WWE App, this was bullshit. I hated this match and tried to make the most of this match. However, RKO is back to kissing ass and Swagger is back to being a jobber with a good gimmick. Moving on. )

Main Event: Triple H vs. Curtis Axel
Winner: None
(I will just move on to the end because this was a pointless match. I am so pissed and speechless.)

Final Thoughts: Paul Heyman is now managing jobbers. Why? I don't know. This was suppose to be a good show after a so so PPV. What we got is Triple H is acting like he had damage. Booking that boggles the mind. And matches with lose basis for meaningful or meaningless storylines. I am going to cool off and hope TNA will entertain me with more Sting, Hogan, and the other old men. See you all for TNA Impact.

WWE Extreme Rules PPV 5/19/13

Note: Just like watching WWE Smackdown this past Friday, I had to force myself to watch this PPV. I said it best last week that without CM Punk, Ziggler, or anyone of interest on WWE TV, it will suck and be boring as hell. The thing I hope to see on this PPV is maybe a title change and the end of Cenation. I know I am asking a lot but then again it is better than nothing. By the way, it is May 19th......Here's WWE Extreme Rules.

PreShow/Match#1: The Miz vs. Cody Rhodes
Winner: The Miz
(I don't know whot to feel sorry for in this match. I feel sorry for the fans for having to see this shit on free internet. This was shitty for me because I wished this match would glitch and we would see something else. This wasn't boring but just fucked up to see this during the pre-show.)

Match#2: Chris Jericho vs. Fandango
Winner: Y2J
(I am happy that Y2J did not job to this fucker. Other than that, I am going to move on because I don't like Fan-fag-go. That was not a gay comment but more of a way to insult Vince's logic. )

Match#3: Kofi Kingston vs. Dean Ambrose - U.S. Title Match
Winner: Dean Ambrose - New Champion
(Thank you god for this miracle!!!!!! I am not a fan of seeing Kofi be king of the mid card titles. This was so good that I had to watch this match more than once to love the irony. This was going to be the match to make up for the above match. )

Match#4: Mark Henry vs. Sheamus - Strap Match
Winner: Sheamus
(Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Boring......Enough said.)

Match#5: Jack Swagger vs. Alberto Del Rio - #1 Contender for the WHC Title
Winner: ADR
(This match was pointless because we all know that ADR is the face and he was not going to lose. So this was almost as bad as watching the preshow match. )

Match#6: Randy Orton vs. The Big Show
Winner: RKO
(The only thing that made this match was seeing RKO punt the fuck out of Big Show. Other than that, this was boring......)

Match#7: Ryback vs. John Cena - WWE Title Match
Winner: Draw
(Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!!Bullshit!!!!! Bullshit!!!! This was bullshit.)

Main Event: Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar
Winner: Brock Lesnar
(I would love to be happy for this match but I was too busy laughing at the fact that these men had to force this match to be sucessful. Also why was this the main event? At least with the bullshit of seeing Cena get killed, it would have ended the show. I love Triple H using his power for the forces of himself and not for the betterment of good. )

Final Thoughts: Holy shit!!!!! The Shield has most of the midcard titles. Now they need to go after Wade Barrett and the IC title. That was a highlight that I loved. So my wish of seeing Team Hell No is over. Also no more happy Kofi. Well things got real in the WWE with those title changes. There was no Divas title match, no IC title match, or even a WHC title match. The last one is because no Dolph. Why was Barrett not booked in a match? Why were we denied seeing AJ Lee vs. Kaitlyn? We got to see Cena fucking draw. What the fuck? So we got to see something great but also something shitty. Well at least Triple H is done on TV for the spring. Well I sense that WWE Raw might be interesting this week. So see you all for WWE Raw.

WWE Smackdown Review 5/17/13

Note: Well it took a lot of nerve, guts and will to write this entry. I guess after seeing Smackdown live without no commercial or editing, seeing this on TV again makes me sick. Just like WWE Raw, seeing it live makes me think Vince cannot allow the fans to cheer for whomever they want. I know it is bad when people tell me Smackdown is like a podcast that people only want to see when something interesting happens. So let's see how shitty Smackdown is going to be without Ziggler or ever Booker T.

Opening Segment: The Miz and another MizTV segment. His guests are Randy Orton and Big Show, who were previously advertised for The Highlight Reel. We see highlights from the Orton vs. Show feud. Jack Swagger, Alberto Del Rio, Mark Henry and Sheamus all end up in the ring and a brawl breaks out. Orton, Del Rio and Sheamus clean house before Teddy Long comes out and makes a six-man match for later tonight.
(SSDD is in full effect. No Booker T means Teddy is making shitty tag matches. Does he have a hard on for tag matches? Also we all know this is a ploy for people to watch the PPV this weekend. I mean I would have loved something different but this is what we get for tonight. So sad to see Miz become a midcarder all over again. )

Match#1: Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns vs. The Usos
Winners: The Shield
(I was so thankful for seeing this match as it was seen. Why? The Usos suck and The Shield will become Tag Team Champs. This was so quick only because we all know that WWE hates tag teams and hates showcasing their young talent. Thank god for the ending because we all know that The Shield isn't scared of Kofi but is scared of sucking.)

Match#2: Tensai and Brodus Clay vs. Darren Young and Titus O'Neil
Winners: Tensai and Brodus Clay
(This match was so boring that I did not watch it or care to see it. SSDD in WWE.)

Match#3: Chris Jericho vs. Antonio Cesaro
Winner: Y2J
(I love seeing Y2J in action. I think this was more of a squash match for Jericho. We all know that Cesaro is done in the WWE. We all hope to see the end of Fandumbo. Vince is pissing me off by showcasing this dumbshit. )

Match#4: The Miz vs. Damien Sandow
Winner: The Miz
(I think this should have been on earlier in the show. SSDD is still alive in WWE. )

Match#5: Kaitlyn vs. Aksana
Winner: Kaitlyn
(I hate to say this but this was the best thing on TV. Why? As a redblooded male, this match was something to FAP about. I still hate Aksana as a wrestler but she is gaining weight and gaining a phat ass. Kaitlyn is my WWE crush. I love that she is a beast and she can wrestle. This was so hot to see because all I can think about is FAP. It was a good match but this was more so to FAP. Thank you Vince for this slice of heaven.)

Main Event: Randy Orton, Alberto Del Rio and Sheamus vs. Big Show, Jack Swagger and Mark Henry
Winners: Randy Orton, Alberto Del Rio and Sheamus
(This was fucking boring. So fucking boring that I will move on to the end of this blog.)

Final Thoughts: I did not want to write this entry. I think I was right to say that. I will say that this PPV will suck because no Ziggler, Punk, or any real relevance to the WWE storyline. So I guess I will see you all this Sunday for WWE Extreme Rules.

TNA Impact Review 5/16/13

Note: It is hard to watch TNA some weeks because some weeks are good and other weeks are bad. Some weeks we don't see Hogan and Sting but other weeks they are in the main event. I love how TNA is using the every other week schedule to have live shows and taped shows. I guess we will see if this is going to be a good week or a bad week. Here's TNA Impact.......

Match#1: Bobby Roode vs. Chavo Guerrero
Winner: Bobby Roode by DQ
(This was a good match to start the show. I love see Bobby Roode in action. I might have had my criticism of him in the past but I think he is better as he is now. However, he does need to be in the title hunt. No words can describe Chavo because his role in TNA is still being written. This would have been a better match with an ending but James Storm does what he wants, when he wants.)

Match#2: Jay Bradley vs. Christian York
Winner: Jay Bradley
(To be honest, this was so fucking boring. I had to change channels to keep awake. This was bad because both men botched the match. Even trying to see it again pissed me off. This was worse than watching Michael Cole wrestle. Moving on......)

Match#3: Gail Kim vs. Velvet Sky
Winner: Velvet Sky
(I was in heaven but this was also a shitty KO match. I guess it is because I don't like Velvet Sky and feel like she needs to go away. This was bad because Velvet was acting like she can hold a match. Gail Kim can hold a match. So I am going to move on. )

Match#4: Petey Williams vs. Chris Sabin vs. Kenny King - X-Division Title Match
Winner: Kenny King
(This was the best thing on TNA for tonight. I loved seeing that guys like Kenny King and Sabin do anything to get a win. This match had action and it was not slow or boring. I was so happy to see this match because it is hard to see good matches in TNA. So this was a blessing in disguise. Thank you TNA....)

Match#5: Daniels vs. Hernandez
Winner: Hernandez
(Thank god this match ended quick. I don't like Hernandez and does not understand why TNA uses him. Moving on......)

Match#5: D-Lo Brown vs. Joseph Parks
Winner: Joseph Parks
(This is going to be an interesting thing with one week we get Abyss and then next week we get Joseph Parks. This was a boring match until we saw Joseph become Abyss. This was very interesting but the match sucked. Thank god Parks went psycho.)

Main Event: Confronation/Contract Signing between Sting and Bully Ray
(SSDD is coming to TNA. I don't care who wins but I want to see if Sting can wrestle or not. So typical but at at least this did not end like most WWE shows. )


Final Thoughts: Well this was not a bad show but the ending was better than anything WWE does on their shows. We can watch Bully Ray and Sting brawl until the show ends. However I hate seeing Cena look weak one week but then is Billy Bad Ass next week. The bread and butter of TNA was good to see but then seeing the shit with Aces & Eights and other boring shit makes me sick. See you all for WWE Smackdown.

WWE Raw Review 5/13/13

Note: This is the WWE Raw before the PPV this Sunday. I am going to hope to see something to make me want to order the PPV. I am upset that Ziggler is out with a concussion and will not be at the PPV. I am also upset that I might have to stop watching WWE Raw if there is no more CM Punk on TV. So here is WWE Raw.

Opening Segment: Dance off with Fandango and Chris Jericho
(This was bullshit......Moving on. )

Match#1: Ryback vs. Zack Ryder
Winner: Ryback
(Well I think that it is time to say goodbye to Ryder because it is apparent that WWE is jobbing him out. Seeing this match was like a man beating the shit out of a mule. This was so bad that I had to change channels to avoid this ass whooping. I said my peace about Ryback. It is apparent that WWE has a new Goldberg. Moving on…..)

Match#2: Darren Young and Titus O'Neil vs. Tensai and Brodus Clay
Winners: Darren Young and Titus O'Neil
(I laughed my ass off seeing this match. You mean PTP finally won instead of jobbing to someone else. This was so bad that I literally watch this match without sound. You mean to tell me that WWE allowed PTP to win a match. Wow, the world is coming to an end. )

Match#3: Kofi Kingston vs. Damien Sandow
Winner: Kofi Kingston
(This was a classic midcard match. I mean this flowed so well that I watched this again because it was so smooth to watch. This was a match that could have gone either way. Especially since both men should be in the main event. This could be setup for a WHC match. This actually was the best match of the night. )
 
Match#4: Antonio Cesaro vs. Randy Orton
Winner: Randy Orton
(So this is what I call SSDD storyline. I have seen this before. I know who will win. Cesaro is jobbing. No more push for Cesaro. RKO is back in the midcard. Geez that’s bad to say because it is rare to see a guy go backwards. Whatever……)

Match#5: The Miz vs. Heath Slater
Winner: The Miz
(Miz needs to go back to using the skill crushing finale as a finisher. Everytime he uses the figure four it pisses me off. We all know that he cannot do it like Ric Flair. 3MB is three jobbers with a shitty gimmick. Moving the fuck on……..)

Match#6 - Elimination Match: John Cena, Kane and Daniel Bryan vs. The Shield
Winner: John Cena by DQ
(The memes of John Cena are so true that it makes me sick. However, this is SSDD times ten. Why? It is because we saw this match before. The only thing different is that I guess Cena’s Achilles’ heel is better now. This was good but when it was The Shield against Cena, it got old and stale. Thank god they at least powerbomb Cena. )

 Match#7: Big E Langston vs. Jack Swagger
Winner: Jack Swagger by Count Out
(This was a match voted by using the WWE App. Well this was a good match to vote on. This match was better on WWE Raw because we at least saw a match. I am pissed that the WHC will not be defended because Ziggler is out with a concussion. I hated that Swagger could not beat Big E without pinning him.  )

Match#8: Natalya vs. AJ Lee
Winner: AJ Lee
(I had to watch this match on mute because The Bellas are annoying. I wanted to watch this match and enjoy it because it is rare to see AJ Lee wrestle. I guess this was a good match but then again it is rare to see a good divas match. AJ’s finisher was sick because it did not end with a boring move. Wow, good divas match on WWE is rare. )

Main Event: Triple H/Brock Lesnar confrontation before the PPV
(I am going to be honest and say that this was a good way to end the show. However, I took a muscle relaxer prior to this confrontation. So I was basically falling asleep during this. We all know that both men can fight, wrestle, and basically make a match seem interesting. The ending was cool because it reminded me of the old school cage matches. )

 Final Thoughts: Holy shit, WWE Raw didn’t suck. I guess because this is the show before the PPV and had to do something to make the fans happy. I wish I was happy to order the PPV but I’m not because this is not something I will pay for.  So see you all for maybe a good TNA Impact.

WWE Smackdown Review 5/10/13

Note:  I will admit the storyline of using The Shield to take out Taker, then Kane was epic. This is making these three men more dominate than anyone else in the WWE. So we will see a match that was epic in the indy circuit of wrestling. We will also see SSDD matches but the main event is what I am looking forward to. So here is WWE Smackdown.

Opening Segment: Chris Jericho's Highlight Reel with Ryback as his special guest.
(This was like pulling teeth. I guess Ryback speaking is not the best thing in WWE. Ryback speaking is like ruining the best mute wrestler in the world. Y2J is still the best of the best in doing a show. Seeing Ryback live is better because Ryback is not talking, he wrestling. So this was the best way to start the show but it was long and tedious. Also thank god Teddy Long did not make this a tag team match.)

Match#1: Kofi Kingston vs. Cody Rhodes
Winner: Kofi Kingston
(This match was like watching a quality IC or even US title match. I actually watched this all the way through. I felt sorry because this could be a major title match. I guess seeing these men wrestle is how sad WWE is with making stars from their mid card. Good match but next week will be redone to make it look shitty. )

Match#2: Jack Swagger vs. Big E Langston - No DQ match
Winner: Never Started.....
(Question for you all: How in the fuck do you have a no dq match but it does not start? Well Alberto Del Rio answered that question but putting a ladder in the ring and then everyone using it as a weapon. So why did we not see two good wrestlers have a match? To further a storyline with so many shades of shit. I like seeing Ziggler as champ but adding Swagger and ADR is a bit much. Especially with the racial tones from Swagger and Zeb. Also Ziggler suffered a concussion and I hope this passes because if not, Ziggler might be screwed out of a title soon. )

Match#3: Dean Ambrose vs. Daniel Bryan
Winner: Dean Ambrose by DQ
(Best match in a long while. This was going to be the match of matches. I loves every second of it. Two top indy wrestlers in the WWE making names for themselves. I love how the WWE made it hard to remember these men wrestled all over the indys and these men in their own right are champions. I was not mad that Kofi interfered because it might set up title matches with the US and Tag Titles on the line and possibly seeing The Shield have some gold. Unlike The Corre or Nexus, I believe in The Shield. )

Match#4: The Big Show vs. Tensai (Sweet T.)
Winner: Big Show
(This match made me think of the WWE memes that end with Pepperidge Farm remembers. Tensai was a beast when he came into the WWE. Now he's jobbing and dancing to kids. This was basically a jobber match. Big Show comes in, then he does three moves and then........WMD. Match ends. However, thank god for RKO for giving Big Show an RKO. Quickest match ever in WWE. )

Main Event: Chris Jericho vs. Ryback
Winner: Chris Jericho by DQ
(Well I cannot praise Y2J enough because this was not a good match without him in it. Why? Ryback is use to jobbers. When Ryback is wrestling actual people, he sucks. So thank you WWE for fucking up a main event. So fucking disguised. I know live it was better but TV sucked. )

Final Thoughts: There was not a lot of SSDD but this was not a good SD show. This was maybe a lazy way to fill two hours. I am going to move on and forget this excuse of a show for tonight. See you all for WWE Raw. I'm speechless.

TNA Impact Review 5/9/13

Note:  This might actually be a good show for TNA tonight. I want to think that what might occur tonight is something that could be historic for TNA. Unlike WWE, TNA really has to do more to gain more viewers and also gain more fan base. So rather to gab on about something that might happen, I need to start the review. Here’s TNA Impact.

Match#1: Tara and Gail Kim vs. Mickie James and Velvet Sky
Winners: Velvet Sky and Mickie James
(Well it was nice to see that the show started with the KO division. I love seeing this because I know I will see wrestling not bullshit. Tara is back to being the sexpot that she is. I don't like Jesse but love Tara. My TNA crush is still hot as she can be. I love that Gail Kim has a mean streak now. She's showing signs of Bret Hart by using the hanging figure four. Loved every second. WWE needs to take notes.)

Match#2: Doc of Aces & 8's vs. Magnus
Winner: Magnus
(Well I wish I could say this was not a clusterfuck but it came close to being something shitty. I like that DOC is getting more ring time not just a stooge. D'Lo is not VP of Aces & 8's but back to being a grunt. This would have been better if D'Lo was not there. Also would have been better if this didn't reek of a jobber match.)

Match#3:  Austin Aries and Bobby Roode vs. Kaz and Christopher Daniels - #1 Contender Spot for the TNA Tag Team Titles
Special Refreee: James Storm
Winner: No Contest
(If this had a winner, then this would have been the match of the night. This had shades of X Division all over it. This was the best fucking match. Even with the addition of James Storm as referee, this was a good way to make this feud better. The ending was lame but seeing it again during the reply made me think TNA needs to use the guys they created more and less on guys who had reps to begin with. )

Main Event:  Kurt Angle and Sting vs. Bully Ray, Devon, and Mr. Anderson of Aces & 8's
Winners: Abyss, Kurt Angle, and Sting
(Abyss is back!!!! Thank you god! Abyss is like the TNA version of Taker. Except Taker does not have a twin. This match was boring as fuck until Abyss came in to wake up the crowd. I hope they explain what the fuck happened to Abyss. Also I hope they kill off Jospeph Parks. Thank god for Abyss to come back. Nice way to end the show.......Abyss is back!!!!!)

Final Thoughts: I am noticing that this show is getting lazy with their matches. I want to know why TNA is only showing on TV four matches. Cut some of the bullshit and get more matches on TV. Hopefully next week's show will be better because the bread and butter of TNA is back.....X Division. So until then it is off to bed for me. See you all for WWE Smackdown.......

WWE Raw Review 5/6/13

Note: After seeing Smackdown live in my hometown, seeing tonight's Raw is going to be funny because it is going to have repeated matches from last week's Smackdown. Also it was nice to see that people was shocked to see that I was there at Smackdown and also cannot wait to see another WWE event. Before I see the WWE PPV, I will be looking to see TNA live. So as for WWE Raw, it is setting up to the PPV this month. Time to watch the WWE A show. Here's WWE Raw........

opening Segment: John Cena and Ryback face off. Ryback chooses a last man standing match for the PPV this month.
(I was bored seeing this because Cena is boring me. As for Ryback, well his appeal on TV is lost on me. However, seeing him live is different. I hate that WWE makes you either like or hate someone. This was funny at times but it was really boring.)

Match#1: Randy Orton vs. Damien Sandow
Winner: Randy Orton
(SSDD from Smackdown. However, this was better see live on Smackdown than on WWE Raw. Why? Well it was not as long but there was no Big Show. RKO needs to be heel but he's stuck in his current role on TV. Also Sandow had me laughing because he put a spin of RKO's theme music. Better live than on TV. )

Match#2: Fandango vs. R-Truth
Winner: R-Truth by Count Out
(This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! This was boring!!!!! So glad this match ended the way it did. Hated this match.)

Match#3: Alberto Del Rio vs. Dolph Ziggler - Non Title Match
Winner: ADR by DQ
(I think the triple threat match for the WHC is going to be interesting. This match was funny but classic. The whole setup was interesting because of the different angles and feuds going on in this whole thing. Also was funny to see Zeb in new clothes and RR bouncing around. )

Match#4: The Shield vs. The Usos and Kofi Kingston
Winners: The Sheild
(I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield. I believe in The Shield.)

Match#5: Zack Ryder vs. Antonio Cesaro
Winner: Antonio Cesaro
(This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! This was so fucking boring!!!!! Moving on........)

Match#6: AJ Lee and The Bella Twins vs. Kaitlyn, Cameron, and Naomi
Winners: Kaitlyn, Cameron, and Naomi
(So on TNA had the best women's match but WWE put on the shitty match. This was good to see but so quick to take it all in. I think this was going to be good but it turned bad in seconds. I guess I will move on. Nothing to really see here. This was a perfect FAP match but too quick. )

Match#7: Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett
Winner: Sheamus
(SSDD times 10. This was a rerun from months ago. Nothing more to say except what happened with Sheamus and Mark Herny was better than the match alone. )

Main Event: Kane vs. Ryback
Winner: Ryback
(This was a shitty ending to the match and the show. SSDD is the theme for tonight. Time to finish this.........)

Final Thoughts: This show was basically SSDD. We saw some rematches from Smackdown. However, there was no Divas matches on Smackdown. Also, there was not as many things going on in this show. I am not going to call this show tonight bad because it was not bad but there was points where it was going to get bad. See you all for TNA Impact.

WWE Smackdown Review 5/3/13 - Detroit Edition 2013

Note: This was a rare opportunity to see this show live and in color. I was excited to see WWE again because WWE Raw was over a year ago in Detroit. I did get to see Edge make a post retirement appearance. Going to Joe Louis Arena in Detroit is a rare gem because it is the mecca of hockey and the mecca of quality concerts. WWE and Joe Louis Arena goes back to the old WWF days and seeing Hogan and Savage or seeing Ricky Steamboat and George "Animal" Steel. As a fan of wrestling, this is my MSG. NYC can brag about Bruno and his streak at MSG. I can brag about seeing good matches with guys from the Detroit area like Rhyno, Edge, Christian, and CM Punk. While I am writing this, I will admit that this is a rare oppurtunity for me. So this is going to be more special to write than other reviews. Here goes WWE Smackdown from my home of Detroit MI.

Before Smackdown: We see Bray Wyatt beat up Curt Hawkins before the show begin. Then we see Kofi beat Cesaro and Justin Gabriel beat former Nexus teammate Heath Slater.
(So as I got to my seat, I knew before Smackdown began that we were going to see matches taped for Main Event. However, it is rare to see a dark match that was interesting to see. So I wish WWE would put Hawkins back on TV. He is a good worker and he is going to be a good mid card champion. Bray Wyatt is one of NXT's stars. Their match was interesting because to be honest, Hawkins had it won. As for the matches for Main Event, it was SSDD live. I was into the matches but laughed because I am seeing this shit live. Kofi made a speech that was oscar worthy. The other match was SSDD as well. So we are going to get to the actually reason why I came to see Smackdown: The actual show.)

Match#1: Ryback vs. Daniel Bryan
Winner: Ryback
(On TV, they probably made it seem like Ryback was the heel. In Detroit, Ryback was the man. No one booed Ryback. Kids were chanting and also geeked to see him. BD live is cool because he looks more tan in person. Seeing this match was cool live because we got to see how WWE might fuck up the match. This was a long match because DB can wrestle. Ryback was hitting everything so crisp and precise. When Ryback won, it was like the Detroit Red Wings winning the Stanley Cup. Wow....it was epic. )

Match#2: Fandango vs. Zack Ryder
Winner: Fandango
(I am a fan of Ryder. I was happy to see him make it on TV. I did take more pics of him because he is going to get out of the hole and be someone. As soon as Vince's new project came out, I left to get food and to pee. I don't like Vince's project. I won't say his name or acknowledge him. As I got food, I was laughing because even the adults think this character is bordering levels of what Adrian Adonis was doing in the 1980's. So basically I did see the end and moved on. )

Match#3 Part #1: Ricardo Rodriguez vs. Zeb Colter
Winner: Double DQ
Match#3 Part #2: Ricardo Rodriguez and Alberto Del Rio vs. Zeb Coulter and Jack Swagger
Winner: Double DQ
Match#3 Part #3: Ricardo Rodriguez and Alberto Del Rio vs. Zeb Coulter and Jack Swagger vs. Dolph Ziggler and Big E. Langston
Winners: ADR and RR
(What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? Ok, I had to do this match in segments because thanks to booking, it came out like three parts of a match. I will acknowledge Teddy Long in a second. The first match was cool to see RR and Zeb just brawl and fight. The second match was getting boring and I was happy to see Big E. and Ziggler cut into the boring. The final match was a cool looking clusterfuck. Lots of flopping around and lots of action outside of the ring. So Teddy Long strikes again. Teddy Long is the poster child of tag team match booking. He had a hard on for coming out to book a tag match. I can't wait to see Teddy finally leave SD. The crowd was losing interest in this match until the end. )


Match#4: Randy Orton vs. Damien Sandow
Winner: RKO
(What was the purpose of this match? This was sad to watch because I wanted to cheer but was getting bored. There was a lot of boring chants. I know on TV those chants were wiped out. I want to comment more on this match but again left to get food and to pee. Unlike seeing this on TV with commercial breaks, seeing this show live made it interesting to leave to get food and potty breaks. Moving on to the end. )


Main Event: Kane vs. Dean Ambrose
Winner: Dean Ambrose
(Holy shit!!!!! First of all, seeing Kane's entrance live can cause people to pee on themselves. The loud bang scared the shit out of most of the live crowd. I peed a little. Also the pyro live can cause cameras to stop working. My camera stopped working. I was pissed but still loved seeing Kane come in to do battle. When the Shield came out, it was like seeing a rock star come out to perform. I was one section from where the Shield came down from. Seeing those guys coming down was awesome. I shouted to all three that I believe in the Shield and I actually got a nod from all three. This match live was cool. Kane was in rare form. Dean Ambrose is good to see live because TV does not do him justice. Loved the ending and loved the way they ended the show.)

Final Thoughts: Well this show live was a 8/10. Seeing it on TV was more of a 3/10. I hate WWE editing and Vince's shitty touches. Seeing this show live was cool because the fans were into it for the most part. I met some guys that came from Germany and we talked through out the show. I also met some people that knew me from my day job and this blog. So as a fan, I was happy to not waste money. As a blogger, it was cool to see people that likes what I write. I did skip the bullshit with Sheamus and Mark Henry doing an arm wrestling match. I skipped it because seeing it live was boring. I know taped it was more boring. I also skipped Big Show coming out after RKO beat Sandow. I love Big Show and it was pointless. I went to the bathroom and eat food more than seeing the show in it's entirety. Seeing SD live was cool because I like watching SD better than Raw most weeks because it is short. So seeing this show live was cool but I think I was more excited to know that WWE PPV is coming to Detroit. WWE Night of Champions PPV is on September 15th. I will be doing a WWE PPV review that night. Until then, see you all for WWE Raw.

TNA Impact Review 5/2/13

Note: I am starting to notice a pattern in TNA where one week it is good and one week it is bad. Usually the taped shows are the good ones because their live shows look rushed and unpolished. I am also seeing that their bread and butter: X Division is being flopped around each week. Also some weeks, the KO division is lagging because they want to promote the young girls not the veterans. So going into this show, I just want a nice balance. We all will see how TNA will push the Aces and Eights group. So here's TNA Impact........

Match#1: Chris Sabin vs. Zema Ion vs. Sonjay Dutt - X Division Match
Winner: Chris Sabin
(This was a perfect way to start the show. Thank god one of my boys from the D is back and about to take Kenny King to the limit. This was a perfect blend of action, skill and crazy shit. I was happy to see Chris Sabin come back to revive the division. Just like my new high flier; Petey Williams, this is making it harder for Kenny King to keep that title. Thank god Aces and Eights don't care about this division.)

Match#2: Rob Terry vs. Robbie E, Jessie Godderz & Joey Ryan - Handicap Match
Winner: Rob Terry
(NO!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!!NO!!!!!!!!! What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? Moving on.........)

Match#3: Kurt Angle vs. D’Lo Brown - “I Quit” Match
Winner: Kurt Angle
(I remember seeing this match over a decade ago. It was when Angle and D'Lo was in the WWE. So I guess this was a nostaglia match for the older fans. Seeing D'Lo wrestle reminds me why he retired. He was not good back then and was shitty now. Angle is a beast and still can hold and carry a match. This wasn't boring but it was sad to watch.)

Match#4: Mickie James & Taryn Terrell vs. Gail Kim & Tara
Winner: Mickie James & Taryn Terrell
(This was like a wet dream I had weeks ago. Except I was the ref not ODB. I had to resist not FAP to this match. I also had to focus on the match not all the tits and ass bouncing around. I have said that Tara, Gail Kim, and Mickie James look good and fucking hot for women in their 40's. My god this was a good match to see because they did actually wrestled but this was a quality FAP match. )

Main Event: Sting vs. Matt Morgan - #1 Contender for the TNA Championship
Winner: Sting
(What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? What the fuck was this shit? You mean to tell me that instead of allowing Matt Morgan to fuck up a title match to just screw him out of a title shot. This was a total ripoff. I mean we all know that Sting, Hogan and Bully Ray run TNA but what the fuck....Matt Morgan can't wrestle but he can make an impact. So whatever........)


Final Thoughts: This was a mix bag show. I saw some good but there was a lot of bad. This was close to being a clusterfuck of a show. I guess sometimes seeing this show is like a bad car wreck with a mix of a train wreck. I know without Hogan, TNA is not going to be on TV or even be popular. Well I am going to gear up for my epic review of WWE Smackdown in Detroit. See you all for that.
