  1. WWE Superstars Review

    1 Comment

    What up, Peeps?!  Let’s get this thing crackilackin’…

    The show starts with “The Cutting Edge” with the World Heavyweight Champ hosting the number one contender Jeff Hardy

    Edge starts off talking about their long and storied pasts and how it needs to end at Judgement Day.  He then calls Jeff a loser and tells him to crawl back into his hole.  Jeff has gotten better on the mic, but he continues to yell everything.  This ends with Hardy hitting the Twist of Fate and the Swanton Bomb.  Whatever…moving on.

    The first match of the evening is the Diva tag match with Miss Wrestlemania Santina Marella and Kelly Kelly taking on Beth Phoenix and Rosa Mendez

    Diva wrestling blows!  Santino..errr…Santina is hilarious, but Kelly Kelly sucks.  This match was funny when Santino/a was involved.  Otherwise, it was a big fat stinky turd.  Anyways, Kelly Kelly gets the pin on Rosa.  This match gets a 3 out of 10 just because of the pure comedic gold that is Santino/a.

    Woo Woo Woo.  The next match of the night is Finlay and Zack Ryder.  You know it!

    Youtube the video entitled “My new haircut” and tell me Ryder doesn’t look like the douchebag in that video.  Woo Woo Woo… Finlay handles Zach Ryder in a pretty short one.  This match gets a 5 out of 10.  You know it!

    The Main Event of the evening and a match that should Main Event at a ppv in the near future is The Shaman of Sexy John Morrison against Chris Jericho.

    What a main event!  John Morrison in amazing and Chris Jericho is….Chris f’ing Jericho!!!  I want Morrison’s coat…that thing is awesome.  Jericho has gotten a little pudgy lately, but is still great.  Morrison maybe the most athletic guy in the WWE, and that’s saying something…that guy can hit some sick spots!  The end of the match sees Shelton Benjamin’s music hitting and him appearing on screen.  This distracts Morrison and Jericho hits the Code Breaker for the win.  This match gets a 8.5 out of 10. 

    My favorite thing Jericho has ever done was the bet he had with Christian over who could hook up with Trish first.  The bet was for…wait for it…wait for it…ONE CANADIAN DOLLAR!  LMAO!!!  There’s my cheap Christian plug of the night.

    Overall this show was pretty good.  It had good humor with Santino/a and a great match with Jericho and Morrison.  The show gets a 7.5 out of 10.  And now I shall leave you with a fact of life as I know it…The Office is awesome!!!

  3. WWE Superstars Review

    2 Comments

    Hey everybody!  Tharvey1 here with the WWE Superstars Review for the Thursday April 16, 2009.  Since this is the debut of the new Superstars, lets get this thing started off right. 

    Match number 1 of the night was Matt Hardy vs. The Undertaker. 

    The match started off with Taker dominating inside and outside the ring.  As soon as the action got back into the ring, Taker went “Old School,” then sent Matt back outside the ring with a clothesline over the ropes.  After the commercial break, Matt reversed a chokeslam into a neckbreaker, and then got his offense in.  Taker then hit a bigboot as Matt tried to jump off the top rope, thus putting Taker back in control.  The end of the match saw Matt scramble out of the ring and walk back up the ramp for an intentional count-out.  Jeff Hardy does a run out and forces Matt back into the ring and into a chokeslam.

    This was a pretty good match.  Not too many spots to screw up, although I’m sure Shelton Benjamin could have found a way to if he were involved.  I give this match a 7 out 10.

    Match number 2 of the night was Christian vs. Finlay in the Finals of the Elimination Chase for the ECW Championship

    I was in attendance for this match and the main event.  During the ECW taping, Tiffany made this match for Superstars.  The start of the match was slow and saw a lot of restholds.  This is understandable, as both men had participated in the triple threat match with Tommy Dreamer not 45 minutes before hand during ECW. 

    The middle of the match saw a descent mix of power and tope rope spots.  The finale of the match had Christian hitting the Unprettier (yes I will still call it that, even though WWE wants to call it the Killswitch).  This was a good, short match, especially for both men’s second match of the evening.  Christian is one of the best talents in the WWE, and hopefully he gets his shot eventually.  There’s my cheap plug of the evening for Captain Charisma.

    I give this match a 6.5 out of 10

    Match number 3 and “Main Event” of the evening was Shane McMahon vs Cody Rhodes

    Before the match, Shane cut a promo with Eve backstage about Randy Orton.  Blah, Blah, Blah.  Whatever…who cares?…time to wrap that angle up soon.

    The beginning of the match had Shan’O Mac taking control, and treating Cody like the girl he has been made to be over the last few months.   Cody got a little offense during the middle of the match.  He got outside the ring and went for a chair, reentered the ring, and had the chair confiscated by the referee.  Shane got tossed outside the ring by Cody, grabbed the chair, and promptly struck Cody with the chair.  Cody wins by DQ. 

    After the match, Shane hits Cody a few times with the chair and sets him up for the Coast to Coast with a trash can from under the ring.  Terrible effort with the Coast to Coast.  Shane’s getting to old for that spot.

    I give this match a 5 out 10.

    Pretty good debut for the show.  I can only hope this doesn’t turn into another Velocity or Heat.  I will leave you with a random fact of life as I know it:  RDLee loves Bacon!  Had to give him a return shoutout from his realtime review.

    Thanks for reading, and see you next week for another review of WWE Superstars.

  4. ECW in REAL TIME! 4/14/09

    It’s been a long, long time since the last time I real-timed anything here on the site, but since I’m awake and finally watching ECW for the first time in a few weeks, I figured, why the hell not?  We’ve got some friends in attendance tonight in Knoxville, including WorldWrestlingInsanity’s RDLee, and the man who will be debuting here Thursday night with a WWE Superstars review, tharvey1, so we’re looking for an “AARON WOOD SUCKS” sign.

    Show’s starting, so meet me on the other side of the jump! (more…)

    We’re on the final stretch of the Road to WrestleMania.  There’s just a little bit more scenery to take in before we hit the exit ramp and head to Reliant Stadium for the biggest show of them all.  Speaking of The Big Show, he’s taking on John Cena tonight!  What else is happening?  I guess you’ll find out when I will!

    Full RAW results, after the jump! (more…)

  6. SmackDown on YouTube review – 3/27/09

    Leave a Comment

    Well, here’s something I haven’t really done before. I promised you guys a SmackDown review this weekend, and since I haven’t had the time to fire up the DVR and watch the show, I’m firing up YouTube in my laptop browser at work and reviewing it this way. The YouTube videos of SmackDown generally cut out a lot of unnecessary crap, such as RAW Rebounds and 12 Rounds promotion, so this is pretty much pure, unadulterated SmackDown right here folks.

    The review, after the jump! (more…)

  9. I shouldn’t oversleep on Tuesdays

    Leave a Comment

    I overslept last night, and decided “ah, screw it, I’ll just fake my way through an ECW on SciFi review this week.”  I really wish I hadn’t, because I just can’t do it justice, given that this happened:

    That’s right, kiddies, the Instant Classic, Captain Charisma, Christian has returned to the WWE!  While I’m disappointed that he’s a face on ECW rather than a heel on SmackDown, it’s still exciting to watch!

    I also missed The Miz defeating Tommy Dreamer, Tyson Kidd, who trained in the Hart family Dungeon, debuted with Natalya by his side and defeated local boy Bao Nguyen, and Christian defeating Jack Swagger with help from Finlay and Hornswoggle.

    From now on, I run all my errands on Wednesdays so I can get to sleep earlier and wake up in time for ECW!
