This week’s Smackdown kicked things off with a promo from all of the participants of the WWE World Championship Ladder Match, minus Bray Wyatt.

[Wrestling] James’ Raw Review 6/16/14
We kicked off Raw this week with The Authority addressing the majority of the locker room.

They announced a battle royal with everyone but … Continue reading

The show begins with a recap Payback with The Shield vs Evolution, and then of the shocking moment from Raw, where Seth Rollins turned on the The Shield.

After a couple of incredible events, NXT Takeover and Payback, WWE had momentum on their side. So last night’s Raw had a lot riding on it. I’ll tell you right now this review will be a bit different as instead of watching it from my couch I was able to see it in person. It … Continue reading
[Wrestling] James’ Raw Review 5/26/14
We kick things off with a promo from the Authority. They discussed Daniel Bryan turning over the title and then it turned into Triple H talking about his war with The Shield.

United States Championship: Sheamus vs. Dean Ambrose This was a pretty good match to kick off Smackdown. Sheamus and Dean Ambrose delivered an exciting match that featured a little bit of everything. It actually took some time to devolve into a brawl and I appreciated the match for that. Sheamus retained his title, but Dean … Continue reading

[Wrestling] Paul’s WWE Raw 5/5/2014 Review
United States Championship Battle Royal The US championship needed to become fresh again, I hate that they never booked Ambrose in title matches during his reign so somebody had to take it off of him to make things feel fresh. Sheamus was a perfect choice. The roster is so loaded with people in active feuds … Continue reading
[Wrestling] Paul’s WWE Extreme Rules 2014 Review
El Torito vs. Hornswoggle This was entertaining as hell, I don’t care who you are. The miniature announce table and team, some surprisingly great spots. The best of which was an elbow drop on Torito from Hornswoggle on said mini announce table. The interferences from 3MB weren’t needed, these two should have just been allowed … Continue reading
