Bobby Roode vs Zack Ryder- King of the Ring Qualifying Match

Raw had it's fourth King of the Ring Qualifying Match, as Bobby Roode took on Zack Ryder. Ryder was looking for a big victory over one of Raw's biggest new faces, and got in offense early. Roode, though, weathered the storm and finished off Ryder with a spinebuster and a Pay Off for an easy victory and entry into the King of the Ring.

Winner and qualifying for King of the Ring: Bobby Roode


Eddie Guerrero vs Alberto Del Rio- King of the Ring Qualifying Match

Another King of the Ring spot was on the line, this time from Smackdown, as two of Mexico's finest went head to head as Eddie Guerrero faced Alberto Del Rio. Eddie thrilled the fans with a display of acrobatics, but when he got in control, Del Rio was more calculating and devastating. Del Rio worked over the arm and then locked in the cross armbreaker, but Eddie had the ring awareness to get to the bottom rope. Eddie fought back, hitting the Three Amigos and climbing to the top rope for the Frog Splash, but Del Rio somehow kicked out. Eddie tried the Three Amigos again, but Del Rio countered into a Backstabber for a 2 count. They exchanged offense, before Eddie dropped Del Rio with a big powerbomb and went for another Frog Spash, but Del Rio got out of the way. Alberto then went for another cross armbreaker, but Eddie countered. Finally, Eddie hit the Three Amigos, wearing down Del Rio enough to get the pinfall.

Winner and qualifying for King of the Ring: Eddie Guerrero


AJ Styles(c) vs Tyler Breeze- Light Heavyweight Title Match

With NXT Arrival upcoming, Samoa Joe laid down a challenge to AJ Styles for a match at NXT's first pay-per-view. Interestingly enough, AJ Styles declined the challenge, stating that his responsibilities lay with the Light Heavweight Title. In this match, Tyler Breeze had a chance to take the title back. Both men came right out of the gate with moves, hitting each other with some stiff shots. Styles brought the crowd to their feet a Shooting Star Press to the outside and Breeze did the same, DDTing Styles on the ring apron. Both men exchanged big kicks, Breeze hitting the Supermodel and Styles the Pele, but both men kicked out at 2. Just as it looked like we were going to see an instant classic, Samoa Joe came walking down the ramp, yelling at Styles. AJ, completely distracted, fell victim to the Beauty Shot as Tyler Breeze regained his belt one week after losing it. As Prince Pretty escaped up the ramp, Joe decimated Styles, putting him through the announce table with a Muscle Buster, sending a clear message to the Phenomenal One.

Winner and the NEW Light Heavyweight Champion: Tyler Breeze


Tyler Breeze becomes a two-time Light Heavyweight Champion thanks to Samoa Joe, who will now likely get the match with AJ Styles he wanted at NXT Arrival. Thanks for reading, see you on Raw.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...

American Dad "Stompe Le Monde" Review

You know, I once tried to make it in musical theater. If only I had watched this episode beforehand, I would've known I needed a leather jacket to truly make it. Alas, those dreams are for a more pretentious soul than mine. "Stompe Le Monde" is a wild episode of American Dad, one that starts with Stan's previously unknown uncle dying and ends with wanton destruction of many Sonic Drive-Ins. It's a crazy a journey as it sounds, one that left me just struggling to keep up. The family to use the new inheritance to travel to New York City, but Stan quickly blows the money on the rights to Stomp, which is apparently a real musical. The whole town of Langley is very excited to see the new show, but Stan has no idea what he's doing, never once hiring a director or even rehearsing. Why this only came up literally minutes before opening is anyone's guess. The Smith Family is forced to go on the run, and are attacked by many ferocious coyotes off-screen. In ye...

American Dad "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" Review

American Dad as a show is definitely not afraid to get a little freaky, and nothing is more evident than the existence of Rogu, Roger's tumor that became a character himself in "Persona Assistant". Rogu primarily works as a character because he stays in the background, but this week, he takes a starring role in one of the weirdest American Dad episodes to date. "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" has little in the way of traditional plot structure, and can only barely be considered an episode at all. It's more a collection of funny and bizarre skits, with a few running plot points that end up forming some sort of resolution. Steve wants to become a babysitter, but Francine says he's not ready, so he needs to prove himself to her. He does that by taking care of Rogu, as Roger is off for a night of NSFW activities. Steve is instructed not to let Rogu have candy or screentime, but violates both rules almost immediately. It turns out that Rogu multiplies w...
