I don't care what anyone says, these 2 could legitimize the Women's Tag Team Championships. Let them hold the titles through the summer, then have a heel turn and a banger powerhouse rivalry between them. This could be big money!

Tama Tonga! Wooooow! Looks like we'll be getting Solo and Tama vs Roman and Jimmy maybe? Or, is this their way of reuniting Jimmy and Jey while Roman is gone for a while? All about a Bloodline Civil War!

13/04/2024

I'm just going to say it...

Cody Rhodes is a f'in superstar through and through. He absolutely deserved that title win, I don't care what any Roman crybabies have to say. Will the fans turn? Maybe, but I doubt it'll be anytime soon!

In lieu of doing a full on review of Wrestlemania, let's talk about contributions from the champions that have passed the torch.

Let's talk about this man, Seth Rollins. Winning the title in May of 2023, Rollins stated the this would become the workman's title and would rival the Undisputed Championship in terms of importance with the company. He did not disappoint. Over the course of his 316 day reign, he defended the title an incredible 62 times!

Seth was the perfect choice to get the inaugural run with the new World Heavyweight Championship and he proved his worth throughout his time as champion. With injuries piling up through that time, he finally lost his title to Drew McIntyre at night 2 of Wrestlemania.

The ultimate troll CM Punk just cost Drew the win 😂

People can hate Punk as much as they want, this was gold! Now we're getting Jey Uso vs Damien Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship! This feud with Drew and Punk is getting good now that Punk has the chance to fight back after weeks of DM Hunk trolling online. Backlash is looking to be one helluva show!

Could we be getting a Rock vs Cody match at Backlash??? Wow!

09/04/2024

So, the new format will focus more on a discussion based review. I don't have the time to go over each match individually like I was doing before (life, y'know) so I'll open up the discussions about the weekend, but here's my take:

Night 1 was slightly above average for me. This felt like more of a set-up for night 2, which is fine. Great job WWE for finally separating the tag titles and finally giving R-Truth a win at Wrestlemania. The Gunther and Sami match was a banger, no surprise there, congrats Sami! Rhea and Becky put on one hell of a match and how good is Rhea?!? She deserves this run! The tag match with Rock and Roman vs Cody and Seth was the highlight of the night. Such a fun match and I think the Rock being involved just increased the star power ten fold. This is storytelling at its finest! Let me know what your thoughts on night 1 are and stay tuned for night 2 tomorrow!

Now that Wrestlemania has been closed out, I will resume doing reviews... but a little different. Stay tuned for that!

But, in the meantime, I will say this was one of my favorite Wrestlemanias in recent years. Yes, alot of the outcomes were kind of predictable, but it really does feel like they're moving into a whole new era. An end of a story has come, an end of the most dominant reign in modern times has come, and a door for the future has officially been opened. This year is promising to be one of the most exciting times to be a fan of the WWE!

Stay tuned for my new review format and let's get ready for the HHH Era in the WWE!!!

Match #5: Natalya vs Rhea Ripley for the Smackdown Women's Championship

Dom distracts Natalya so Rhea can sneak attack and she never recovers. Rhea smashes Natalya on an announce table a few times, into the ring steps twice, headbutts her once back in the ring, and then dead lifts Natalya off the mat and lands Riptide. Rhea Ripley retains in a shorter time than it took for them to get to the ring. Happy belated birthday, Natalya.

Don't bother with this match, it's not worth it really. Let me know what you think in the comments and don't forget to follow for more reviews!

Match #4: Asuka vs Bianca Belair for the Raw Women's Championship

This was a Wrestlmania rematch with Asuka playing fantastic heel work leading up to this match. I always like when these 2 are in the ring, they work so well together and I can't wait for their next match. The back and forth they had in the opening of this match where Asuka dropkicked Bianca while she was mid-handspring was beautifully executed.

You know, is see alot of complaints surrounding Bianca lately. The biggest issue I see is people say tye WWE is giving her the "Super Cena" treatment, repeating the same moves in every match and hitting the same type of spots constantly, but I don't really fully agree. She might benefit from having her character tweaked, maybe give her more of an edge and make her a little more aggressive, but I still like Bianca alot in the ring. She was as good as always in this match and she looked strong against a strong opponent.

Asuka looked just as good, some would argue she was better here, as Bianca and her heel work here kept the same energy as the build-up for this match. She's honestly one of the absolute best workers WWE has in their women's division right now and I love how she changed her character just enough to make this one feel fresh. Asuka's counters and offense in this match was perfect for the story they're telling. They opted to use the poison mist in a really interesting way and I applaud the creativity. Asuka spits the poison mist on her fingers and countering the K.O.D. by rubbing her fingers in Bianca's eyes. She then lands 2 very nice kicks and pins Bianca to become the new Raw Women's Champion.

Like I said, I really enjoyed this match and, honestly, I enjoy everytime these 2 work together. With Asuka winning the title, it looks like we'll be getting a rematch at Money in the Bank. It'll be interesting to see what they do then and if they'll ever fix the Women's Championships to be on their respective brands. Alot of fun watching this overall.

That's it for this review. Let me know your thoughts in the comments and don't forget to follow for more reviews!

Match #3: Mustafa Ali vs Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship.

I predicted this to be the sleeper match of the show and I think I was right. It was a shorter match and it was obvious Gunther was winning this, but they put on a really good match. It was believable for just a small window of time that Ali could pull out the upset, but not just anybody is going to beat the Ring General right now.

I'm enjoying Imperium more than most of the stories they're running right now. I love cocky heels that don't rely on outside interference in their matches and this group is doing it the best. Gunther is 100% a future world champion. He's big, strong, athletic, and an absolute bruiser in the ring and the scariest part is he's only getting better. He's proven in this match and throughout his run with the IC title why it was regarded as being the "workhorse" championship, hopefully WWE continues this legacy after he moves into the main event.

Ali looked really good in this match, but that's not really a surprise to alot of people: Ali is damn good in the ring. This match proves he's worthy of some kind of title run, be it in NXT (where he just went) or a midcard title on the main roster. Loved the strength he displayed with the powerbomb to Gunther and the follow-up 450 Splash was a thing of beauty. It's just a shame he did that promo saying "if I don't win this match, I don't deserve to be here", but with him popping up on NXT it kind of makes sense looking back.

After some back and forth, Gunther hit a huge clothesline and taunted the crowd with their chants for Ali. In a last ditch effort, Ali went for another 450 Splash, but was countered by Gunther with a dropkick. He finished the match with a massive powerbomb, Gunther retains the Intercontinental Championship.

But, that's it for now. Let me know your thoughts in the comments and don't forget to follow for more T-Rex Dropkicks!

Match #2: Becky Lynch vs Trish Stratus

This match was fine for the most part. These 2 work very well together and their spots were really well laid out, but I could take it or leave it. This was here mainly as a palate cleanser and as a way to bring Zoey Stark into a main roster storyline, and boy was that Z-360 to Lynch a thing of beauty!

Becky Lynch proves every night why she's one of the best on the roster. She carries a different and more frantic style to her matches and her ability to control the crowd is incredible. She makes every match she's in that much better, no matter who she's with in the ring. I think this story is fine for what it is, but I would prefer Becky being in title matches where she belongs.

What's there to say about Trish? She absolutely revolutionized women's wrestling in WWE and is one of the biggest names in history. She can still do solid work in the ring after all of these years, which is impressive, but compared to modern women she just doesn't really measure up anymore. I loved how they made the match work to her strengths as much as possible. Her Chick Kick and Stratusfaction looked a little... rough, but she still made it work.

I don't know. Like is said, it was fine. I feel like this would've worked better on a different PLE for me. At Night of Champions, I think it should be all championships on the show. Why did they put this on but not a Roman Reigns title defense? Why was there no United States Championship match? I'm going on a bit of a rant, so let me move into something a little more positive.

The standout moment was Zoey Stark getting involved in this rivalry. Trish distracts the ref so Zoey can hit Becky with the Z-360, then Trish lands Stratusfaction for the win. It'll be interesting to see where Zoey fits in with this rivalry, but she's an exciting addition. It's looking like a Lita return for Becky and Lita vs Trish and Zoey, which Becky and Lita wins, but hopefully Zoey is able to really show out to the main roster fans that might not have seen her on NXT.

Match #1: Seth "Freakin" Rollins vs The Phenomenal AJ Styles for the World Heavyweight Championship.

I'm just going to go ahead and say this up front: Match. Of. The. Night. Bravo WWE for opening with this banger. Seth and AJ are just apex performers and this was only a taste of what they could really do in the ring.

Seth, once again, was Seth here and his natural heat with the crowd is mind blowing. He deserved this opportunity after the year he had in 2022, with this match proving he belongs in the main event.

AJ, just coming back from injury and going right into the matches he's had, looked like he's still in his prime. This guy is basically a modern era veteran still outclassing guys 20 years younger than him. It's wild to see.

You can tell this match was basically a night off for these guys. Their spots were crisp, they pulled off incredible counters, and they showed a masterclass in crowd control. In the opening series, Seth would evade an attack and get the crowd to sing his song. Then AJ landed a dropkick, knocking Seth outside, and attempted a springboard but stopped and landed on the apron when Seth slid back in the ring. They stood and stared while the crowd was cheering. They took their time in the opening, letting the crowd's excitement build.

In the end, AJ attempts a Calf Crusher but Seth reverses into a Pedigree, hits the Stomp, and wins the match. Seth Rollins is the new World Heavyweight Champion!

Another solid PLE today with alot of expected outcomes and some not so expected. As I did for Backlash, I will be doing a match by match review of the show starting tomorrow. In the meantime, what are your thoughts on this year's Night of Champions?

Let me know in the comments, and don't forget to follow for reviews of Night of Champions!

Uh oh everybody, lookout: Kross is about to lose to AJ at some point soon! Can they please figure out something to do with him or just let him go already.

19/05/2023

This looks awesome! My theory is we're seeing the Afton family being brought back together. What's your theories on this? Let's discuss!

Match number 6: Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar

Well, I did it. I finally got to the final match after almost 2 weeks. I know, way behind the curve, but its not who's first all the time. Maybe I wanted to be fashionably late. Maybe I wanted to let it simmer, let all of the knee-jerk first takes kind of slow down so we can get a somewhat fresh eyed view of this match. Or maybe, I was just either feeling incredibly lazy on my off days or tired from working and didn't feel like it after I got in my PJs. You decide. 🤷‍♂️

In the grand scheme, this feud makes sense. Brock just wants to destroy something beautiful and massacre Koalas while Cody views Brock as being the final step to getting his world title. A guy that lost all 3 of his last titles matches against the same guy. (Suplex city!) That's not even a knock on Brock. I think Brock is doing a great job paying it forward and elevating guys. Wins against Brock make people look legitimate in the main event picture. (Suplex city!)

I think the biggest disappointment was just how short this match really was. (Suplex city!) The crowd was hot for short spots through this match, but it just seemed like they were worn out after the Bunny and Priest match. (Suplex city!) Maybe this is just a bit of "tough love" from Brock, getting Cody ready to compete with Roman, I'm not sure but we'll see. (Suplex city x2!!) For me, I'm ready for the Bloodline story to kind of fade away. (Suplex city!)

I don't know, this was good for what it was. (Suplex city!) What it does prove is sometimes getting some blood in a match can turn it into a slightly more positive direction. Seeing a wounded Brock still looking strong is still amazing to witness after all of these years. People may not like him so much, but he's what WWE needs: a Beast Incarnate. Cody is the hero that fights through everything to win, and they need him in that role just as much. Cody reverses the Kimora Lock into a pin, Cody wins.

That's it for Backlash! Let me know what you think and don't forget to follow for scenic trips through the mountains, where we stop off in some small city in the middle of nowhere. We stop in a diner for some food, but you need to use the phone so you step outside. Trying to relay where you are, you ask the woman at the register what's the name of the town. Horrified expressions fall on everyone's face and the diner becomes deathly silent. You ask again, and in the quietest whisper, the woman says, "Suplex City". Everyone in the diner dive under their tables to hide, but its too late. You hear a distant rumbling growing louder and louder until you realize it's not just some rumbling, it's footsteps! Before you can even process what you've just realized, Brock Lesnar explodes through the door and grabs you in a German Suplex, throwing you through the diner window and onto the cars outside. Not known to stop there, he burst into the diner and gave everyone a tour of Suplex City with a devilish grin. When he finally got to me, I say in almost a whimper, "Y-you're...you're-", he cuts me off, "I'm the Mayor of Suplex City, bitch. Welcome."
