Surprising releases, surprisingly still employed people, and surprising ch-ch-ch-changes, this week on ThinkSoJoE’s Thoughts!

(more…)

Hey everybody.  I’m back with another invigorating review (and by review I mean my rants about how these guys should be used instead of how they are being used) of WWE Superstars.  Let’s get this thing started shall we? 

Kofi Kingston def. Chavo Guerrero

This match is for two guys who can’t get on TV anymore.  Somehow, Kofi got lost in the RAW shuffle and is not even in the Money in the Bank Match at Wrestlemania.  How does this kind of oversight happen?  One minute the guy is on fire in a very hot feud with Randy Orton and then the next he is delegated to random matches against Chavo Guerrero on Superstars without even a hint he will be on the biggest show of the year.  Is it just me or does Kofi seem like another Elijah Burke, destined to be in TNA?  Anyways, Kofi wins with the Trouble in Paradise.

Evan Bourne def. William Regal

This is the type of match that should get some time.  It’s really hard to explain a comeback from a beatdown in a short period of time.  William Regal dominates this match and then out of nowhere, Bourne hits a knee and the Shooting Star Press for the win.

Kane def. Mike Knox

Ok. Kane is in the MITB match at Wrestlemania.  Mike Knox is on his way to the unemployment line.  Who do you think won this?  Kane wins with the Chokeslam.

Chris Jericho vs Goldust

This was a highly entertaining match.  Jericho even praised the Bizzare One on his Twitter account after this match was recorded on Tuesday night.  With Goldust being in good shape and still being able to perform on a high level, maybe he can hang around for a little while and do for Drew McIntyre what he did for Sheamus on ECW.  Jericho wins with the Codebreaker.

That’s it for this week.  Tune in again next week.

Ah, SmackDown.  I didn’t think I’d be reviewing this show anymore, but it just keeps coming back to me.  Truth be told, I love covering the blue brand – Josh Matthews makes stupid faces, Matt Striker makes cool comments, and I don’t really have to wait for the show to come on to do my review.  Yes folks, it’s 8AM on Friday, March 5th, and I’m here to review WWE Friday Night SmackDown!

(more…)

Darren Young def. David Otunga

Darren Young, CM Punk’s rookie, defeated Jennifer Hudson’s fiancee and R-Truth’s rookie, David Otunga in the opening contest.  Luke Gallows and Truth got into a discussion outside of the ring, and as the referee was distracted, Punk tripped up Otunga, allowing Young to pick up the victory.

After the match, Otunga shoved Truth.

Promo: Daniel Bryan says he’ll headline WrestleMania some day.

Video: Bryan taking a huge bump courtesy of Chris Jericho.

Backstage: Bryan is getting looked at by the trainers, and Miz informs him that he’ll be facing Jericho’s rookie, Wade Barrett, next!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

During the break, David Otunga and R-Truth got into a bit of a brawl before officials broke it up.

Chris Jericho is introduced, and he comes to the stage to introduce Wade Barrett

Video: Wade Barrett will dominate you, because that’s what will put money into his bank account.

Daniel Bryan’s ribs are taped up as he makes his way to the ring, sans The Miz.

Wade Barrett def. Daniel Bryan

The Miz and Carlito watch from a monitor backstage, as Barrett dominates early on.  Barrett hits a spinebuster and it’s too much for Bryan to overcome.

Chris Jericho attacks Bryan after the match and locks him in the old school Lion Tamer style Walls of Jericho.

Later on tonight, Justin Gabriel teams with his pro Matt Hardy to face Skip Sheffield and his pro, William Regal.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Backstage: Heath Slater is bragging about his and Christian’s win last week.  Christian tells him that he shouldn’t be overconfident, and that David Otunga won his match too.

Backstage: Justin Gabriel is excited to work with Matt Hardy.  Hardy says Gabriel will bring a lot of high flying maneuvers, kind of like a young Matt Hardy.  Here’s hoping he doesn’t get fat and wear tights that are too small for him.

Regal and Skip Sheffield make their way to the ring.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Video: Skip Sheffield is a Corn fed Meathead.  He’s an entertainer, and he’s good at it.

Hardy and Gabriel make their way to the ring and we’ve got our main event.

Matt Hardy & Justin Gabriel def. William Regal & Skip Sheffield

Gabriel picked up the win for his team.  Matt Hardy dropped Regal with a  Twist of Fate, and Gabriel nailed a 450 splash, picking up the victory.

Backstage: Matt Striker is with the rest of the rookies.  Carlito comes in and spits in the face of Heath Slater.  He says that’s cool.  Slater doesn’t think so, but Striker says, “That’s NXT.”

RAW is going Up In Smoke tonight as Cheech and Chong host.  Randy Orton takes on Ted DiBiase, more qualifying matches for the Money In The Bank match at WrestleMania should be happening, and Bret Hart may give his farewell address to the WWE Universe.  Ready?  Me too!  Let’s go!

(more…)

Welcome everyone again and welcome to another edition of this thing called an article, where I try to tell you the goings on in my head.  Well hopefully my non-hangover state will help me this week so without further ado, lets go: (more…)

The alternate title for this article is “why independent wrestling is better than WWE and TNA.”  I just got back from Empire State Wrestling’s “Reckoning Day” event.  This is my fifth ESW event, and I’ve never been to a bad show.  This one featured a World Tag Team Championship match with the team of Famous – Will “Mastiff” Calrissian and Chris Cooper – defending against Brandon Thurston and Mike Radski, and a Casket Match for the ESW Championship as Kevin Grace defended against Ryot.

Photos, thoughts, and a half-assed results list, after the jump! (more…)

Alright, it’s 8PM as I type this, so screw it, let’s get started!

Last Sunday: Chris Jericho won the World Heavyweight Championship, with a little help from, of all people, Shawn Michaels.

The World Heavyweight Champion, Chris Jericho is here, and this past Monday, Edge speared him and confirmed that the Rated R Superstar would be his opponent on the Grandest Stage of them All.  In case the big belt over his shoulder doesn’t give it away, he tells us he’s the World Heavyweight Champion.  He even reads the belt.  “Chris Jericho – World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion.”  Last Monday was his inauguration ball, a chance for us to bask in his successes, but it was taken away from him by Edge, and he didn’t deserve it.

You think you know me…

For the second time this week, Edge interrupts Jericho.  He hates to do this, but he’s got to congratulate Jericho.  He walked into the Elimination Chamber and walked out the World Heavyweight Champion.  Jericho says it’s because he’s the best in the world at what he does.  Edge says he’s the best in the world at getting speared by Edge.  Edge lists Jericho’s achievements with the word “spear” attached at the end of each.  Edge feels the spears aren’t just getting to Jericho physically, they’re getting to him mentally as well.  He see’s doubt in Jericho’s eyes. Jericho doesn’t think he can beat him.  Jericho says of course he can beat Edge.  Edge says he’s in Jericho’s head all nightmare long – hooray for a Metallica reference from Edge!  He wants Jericho to live up to what he says, that he’s the best in the world at what he does.  If he doesn’t, guess what’s going to happen.  The crowd chants “spear.”  Edge says they’re right.  One more spear, and it’s all over.  Jericho says Edge will never spear him again, and suckerpunches him.  Edge sells it, and Jericho goes for the Codebreaker, but Edge holds on to the ropes – then spears Jericho once again.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@PrettySlimMont  Damn Jericho….u got speared….again! #wwe smackdown #bwf

@mrsmysterio619 ouch what a spearr .

@xSmootx #Smackdown Definitely looking forward between Edge/Jericho at mania, great segment. #SpearisthenextGOREGOREGORE

WRESTLEMANIA XXVI: 30 Days Away!

We’ve got a Money In The Bank qualifier about to take place as the sounds of AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” ring out through the arena.  Who’s participating?

Now listen, this ain’t no make believe…

The Shaman Of Sexy, John Morrison, had an impressive showing his past Sunday in the Elimination Chamber, and now has a chance to go to WrestleMania as part of the Money In The Bank ladder match.  Standing in his way?

I am perfection…

Dolph Ziggler has an opportunity to make his mark on WrestleMania, but we’re not done with the participants in this match…

What’s up… if you feel me, stand up and say what’s up…

R-Truth is accompanied by his NXT rookie, David Otunga, and we’re set for triple threat action, the winner going on to WrestleMania XXVI as part of the Money In The Bank Ladder Match.

Dolph Ziggler def. John Morrison and R-Truth to qualify for the Money In The Bank Ladder Match

Ziggler’s strategy is to let Morrison and Truth beat each other up, but they’re not having any of that.  They go out after him, beat him up a bit, and toss him back out.  R-Truth gets to show off his athleticism, but Ziggler breaks up the first pin attempt and bails.  Morrison gets a two count as well with Ziggler breaking up the pin once again.  He eats a clothesline for his trouble.  Morrison gets dumped to the outside, and then Truth dumps Ziggler to the floor right by the feet of David Otunga.  Truth hits a suicide dive, then rolls Ziggler back in the ring.  Morrison keeps Truth on the outside, and scores a two count on Ziggler, then we go to a…

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@Lucks4Losers  Totally wanna see Truth’s rookie do Truth’s entrance lol #WWE #Smackdown

@jenrae73 #BWF  #Smackdown Which one will win? Larry,Curly or JoMo? Ha!

@JamesLovely  #wwe  am i the only person that cannot stand R truths theme song or catchphrase? I wish he would just hurry up and turn heel already

@TheKingOfImpact  So now that David Otunga is in #WWE I betta not see Jennifer Hudson in no storylines. The only thing she needs to do is sing at Wrestlemania

Ziggler is surprisingly in control when we come back, managing to fight off both Truth and Morrison.  Both Truth and Morrison at different points score with a rollup on Ziggler but have their pin broken up by the other.  Ziggler breaks up a pin attempt by Truth on Morrison.  Truth goes for the Lie Detector on Ziggler, who ducks, and it’s Morrison who takes the move, but Truth only scores a two count.  Ziggler gets rid of Truth and tries to cover Morrison but still only scores a two.  All three men start battling on the top rope, and Ziggler crash lands on the outside.  Truth goes for a Superplex on Morrison, who blocks and counters with a sunset flip powerbomb, and follows it up with Starship Pain, but Ziggler pulls Morrison out and picks up the pinfall on Truth – Dolph Ziggler is going to WrestleMania!

Christian and Dolph Ziggler are the only qualifiers thusfar for the Money In The Bank ladder match at WrestleMania XXVI

Promo: Please DO NOT Try this at home.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@jaydubshow  Dolph Ziggler is going to WrestleMania! Money in the bank baby! #MITB #WWE Hope Morrison gets another shot though

@thumbscrews  Just saw #HulkHogan in a Rent-a-Center commercial. How the mighty have fallen. #WWE  #TNA

@Jason_Sherman  I wonder what kind of shampoo JoMo uses…his hair is always looking shiny. #wwe  #smackdown

Editor’s note:  I actually saw that Hogan/Rent-a-Center commercial earlier.  Surprised the hell out of me to see him in that – but it’s great promotion for TNA for fans who may not realize what he’s been up to and may think to look him up on the internet.

Video: Shawn Michaels challenges The Undertaker and ultimately convinces him to accept.

It’s Career vs. Streak at WrestleMania, but up next, it’s the WWE Women’s Championship on the line, with special guest referee Vickie Guerrero!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@ivanpek009  This video package is pretty awesome #WWE #Smackdown

@Stythis1788  Brilliant video of Michaels and Taker #wwe. Sheer brilliance

@BrookCallaway This HBK/Taker match is driving me nuts…I dont know who to cheer for. Damn them.

Vickie Guerrero gets the Jeff Jarrett treatment – no music as she makes her entrance.  She’s our guest referee in this WWE Women’s Championship match.  The challenger is out first, which shouldn’t be shocking, but it is.  Michelle McCool is accompanied by Layla.  Mickie James is the WWE Women’s Champion, and she’s accompanied by the WWE Women’s Championship belt.

Michelle McCool def. Mickie James to become the NEW WWE Women’s Champion

Todd Grisham fumbles over the name of the company he works for as this match starts.  Michelle starts off on offense but it doesn’t last long.  Mickie battles back and drops Michelle.  She makes a cover, but Layla gets up on the apron, and Vickie stops to tell her to get down.  Mickie dumps Michelle to the outside and hits a baseball slide, followed up by a Hurricanrana.  Mickie slams Michelle’s face into the barricade and is rolling until Layla gets involved, distracting Mickie.  Michelle takes over, bouncing Mickie’s head off of the ring apron as Beth Phoenix watches on a monitor backstage.  Michelle goes for a powerbomb, but Mickie reverses into another hurricanrana, but her advantage doesn’t last long, and Michelle hits a belly to belly suplex.  She goes for the cover but Vickie falls out of the ring.  Mickie rolls up Michelle but Vickie slaps her in the face.  Michelle boots Mickie in the face and covers her for the pinfall victory and the WWE Women’s Championship.

Up next, it’s another Money In The Bank qualifying match as Kane takes on the Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@SpenceSupreme #WTF Vickie fell out the ring, gets back in and screws Mickie. Wow #WWE

@prettyheartless Peace out Mickie James. I’m calling it.

@jeterfan28 DREW IS ON NEXT!!!! He could be IC champ as well as potential MITB contender!

“Thunderstruck” rings out again, despite the fact that the official theme song for WrestleMania is some song by Kevin Rudolph that I didn’t bother catching the name of.  The Big Red Machine, Kane makes his way to the ring, and he’ll have a chance to go to WrestleMania.  Drew McIntyre’s awesome new entrance plays, and the Intercontinental Champion comes out with a microphone in his hand.  He stops at the top of the ramp and reminds us that he’s undefeated.  Nobody in the WWE has been able to beat him, not even Kane.  He proved it last Sunday when he beat Kane at the Elimination Chamber.  After he beats him tonight, he’ll win Money In The Bank, and the prophecy will be fulfilled.  He’ll be the Intercontinental Champion, the World Heavyweight Champion, and still undefeated.

Kane def. Drew McIntyre to qualify for the Money in The Bank Ladder Match

Kane aggressively attacks McIntyre to start the match.  McIntyre mounts a comeback and starts to aggressively attack Kane, and this match has essentially degraded into a brawl.  McIntyre locks in a front facelock – whaddya know, a wrestling hold.  Kane powers out of the hold and starts throwing punches, then clotheslines in the corner before dropping McIntyre with a sidewalk slam for a two count.  Kane goes to the top rope, but McIntyre gets out of the way, then hits a ZigZag like move, which confuses Grisham into calling McIntyre “Ziggler.”  Kane gets up and goes for a chokeslam, but McIntyre avoids it.  Kane hits a big boot and gets a two count.  McIntyre goes for the FutureShock, but Kane powers out of it.  Kane boots McIntyre in the skull and picks up the pinfall victory.  Kane is going to WrestleMania!

McIntyre gets up and realizes that he’s not going to WrestleMania.  He looks up at the Money In The Bank briefcase, then flips out, yelling something that I can’t quite make out at Matt Striker.

So now the Money In The Bank match will feature Christian, Kane, and Dolph Ziggler.

The Miz has something to say, and that’s NEXT!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@RizzIUP Kane wins w/ a kick to the head #WWE

@Miss_Dani_Baby Take it easy McIntyre you don’t want to lose your job

@txgirl0302 I don’t like Drew McIntyre but dammit I like his theme music.

It’s finally confirmed that “Thunderstruck” is one of the WrestleMania themes this year, though they said it’s off the Iron Man 2 soundtrack…

The Unified WWE Tag Team and United States Champion, The Miz is here with a microphone in his hand.  He can come to any show he wants because he’s one half of the Unified Tag Team Champions, yet he and The Big Show still don’t have a match at WrestleMania.  Miz asks Teddy Long to find ShoMiz a suitable tag team, so that they can prove they’re the most dominant team in the WWE.  Miz doesn’t care who it is, or whether or not he and The Big Show need to come back to SmackDown or not.  He just wants to have his WrestleMania moment, because he’s The Miz, and he’s AWESOME!  Teddy Long says he’ll take it under advisement.  Since Big Show isn’t here, they can’t do a tag team match, but The Miz is here, so we can have a singles match.  Miz says he’s not scared of anybody, bring it on.  Teddy Long announces that the match for later tonight will be The Miz taking on Edge!

Up next, it’s Shelton Benjamin in action as he takes on the Straight Edge Superstar, CM Punk in a Money In The Bank qualifier!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@AndorranRef25  The Miz is AWESOME! He’s come a LONG WAY since signing w/ #WWE. He has Personality and AWESOME promo skills. Miz Vs. Edge should be good.

@Rage_Grenade  @mikethemiz  looks like an AWESOME BEAST with those 3 Title Belts. #WWE  #Smackdown

@youdontknowmel  Miz vs edge?! Miz vs edge?! Dreams DO come true!! #wwe

Smack of the Night: Last year’s Money In The Bank match.

CM Punk is looking to three-peat in Money In The Bank matches, but first, he’s got to qualify.  He’s accompanied to the ring, of course, by the Straight Edge Society of Luke Gallows and Serena.  His opponent tonight is returning to SmackDown after spending a lot of time on ECW, and quite frankly…

AIN’T NO STOPPIN’ (HIM) NOW!

Shelton Benjamin is back on SmackDown!

Shelton Benjamin def. CM Punk to qualify for the Money In The Bank Ladder Match.

Benjamin gets the early advantage in this one, and Punk bails from the ring to catch a breather.  When he gets back in, he takes over.  Benjamin starts to battle back, using his slight edge in quickness to his advantage, but Punk battles back.  Shelton fights off a bulldog attempt, and Gallows climbs up on the apron, distracting Benjamin.  Rey Mysterio pulls Gallows off the apron, distracting Punk, and Benjamin hits PayDirt for the victory!  Shelton Benjamin is going to WrestleMania!

Matt Striker says “A pessimist’s blood type is always B negative.”  I like that line.

Still to come, it’s Edge taking on The Miz!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@Kevin4theWin  So Shelton wins his MITB qualifier with help from Rey Mysterio. #WWE #Smackdown. They should have let Shelton win clean in my opinion.

@Narcissism100  My Straightedge Savior is here CM Punk far better than the Impure Shelton Benjamin. Accept StraightEdge into your life it will save u. #WWE

@wrestlingaddict  AWESOME!!!!!! Loving that Shelton won, Can’t have a MITB match without Shelton! But it should have been a CLEAN win! #WWE

RAW Rebound: John Cena is angry, but he’s going to WrestleMania to face Batista

We get a rundown of the WrestleMania card thusfar.  Pretty solid so far – John Cena vs. Batista, Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho vs. Edge…

Speaking of Edge…

You think you know me…

The number one contender for the World Heavyweight Champion is here and he’s set for action against the WWE United States Champion, The Miz!  SmackDown is about to get AWESOME!  The Miz makes his way out to the ring, and we head to a…

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@Kevin4theWin  Hmm somehow I don’t see this Main Event lasting the full 18 mins. My guess they take a commercial break during Miz Intro #WWE #Smackdown

@iObscurity  My money’s on Edge. Jus’ sayin’.

@_onwiththeshow  @mikethemiz  holyshit, bro, you do cleveland proud. if we can’t have team titles, at least you can carry all those belts. (:

Edge def. The Miz

This is the first time EVER that Edge and The Miz are in the ring together.  Surprisingly, they start off by, y’know, actually wrestling.  Edge gets the better of the early exchanges, frustrating The Miz.  Edge starts playing mind games with The Miz, getting the United States Champion to chase him around, then catching him and slamming him spine first into the barricade on the outside.  Edge actually outquicks The Miz, but The Miz finally catches Edge, slamming him face first into the steel ring post and sending him crashing to the floor, and us crashing into…

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@StevenPhilNYY  watching the end of Smackdown. Just me or does Edge look like he did when he broke into the WWE? Skinnier brood form #WWE #Smackdown

@guitardude83  Haha.SpearSpearSpearSpearSpear lmao that’s good stuff #wwe

@SESociety: #WWE has bigger and better plans for our savior.

The Miz is in control as we come back, wearing Edge down with submissions and strikes.  Miz climbs the ropes, but Edge catches him and flapjacks him into the canvas, turning the tide back into his favor as Daniel Bryan watches from backstage.  Edge nails the Edgecution for a two count.  Miz nails a combination backbreaker/reverse DDT for two.  He goes for the Skull Crushing Finale, but Edge reverses it into the Impaler DDT.  Edge backs into the corner and sets up for, then nails, the Spear, picking up the victory.

Edge celebrates as SmackDown goes off the air.

Welcome, my friends to the show that never ends.  I’m so glad you could attend.  Come inside, come inside.  The Circus that is WWE Superstars is here.

Match 1:  Jack Swagger and William Regal vs Santino Marella and Chris Masters w/ Eve

Santino is absolutely hilarious! He hit a cartwheel and the drop-down splits and then attempted to unleash the cobra.  Swagger and Masters need to compete for the US Title.  The end of the match came when Masters put the Masterlock on Swagger, but Regal interrupted and Swagger hit the gutwrench powerbomb for the win.

Match 2:  Zack Ryder w/ Rosa Mendez vs Primo Colon

This was a highly entertaining match.  Primo is quick and exciting and Ryder is definitely a rising star in the WWE.  Woo Woo Woo…You know it!  Primo got in his fast offense, highlighted by his cartwheel.  Ryder hit the Rough Ryder and eventually the Zack Attack for the win.  Ryder is another guy who should be thrown into the US Title mix.  The problem with RAW right now is there are too many guys who should be involved in the US Title hunt. 

Match 3:  Luke Gallows w/ Serena vs Sylas Young

Its about time they give Gallows some time on his own without Punk.  He cut a promo saying Serena and him would like to dedicate the match to their Straight Edge savior, CM Punk.  This was a quick squash for Gallows to exhibit his power and dominance since most people don’t recognize him as the former Festus.  He has some unique offense and hit the 12th Step for the win.  Serena then gets in the ring and kicks Young in the ribs and out of the ring.

Main Event:  Great Khali, Matt Hardy, and Maria vs The Hart Dynasty

What is the point of Khali and Fatt Lardy being partners?  Surely they could have found a better partner that isn’t doing anything at the time for each of these two.  They both suck, so I don’t understand why people want to see them.  Khali can’t move and Hardy apparently is living off past glory.  It’s good he went back to the pants and got away from the baby pajama bottoms he was wearing.  The Hart Dynasty should be working more meaningful matches than this.  They are probably the best tag team in the WWE and should be shown as such.  Tyson Kidd hit the Hart Attack on Matt Hardy for the win. 

See ya next week for another arousing episode of WWE Superstars.

Note:  I decided to take the night off and allow one of our twitter followers the opportunity to write our RAW review.  Yours truly will be here Friday night to cover SmackDown this week, so for now, here’s this week’s RAW review by @nascardiva9!
