Mickie James vs Natalya

Mickie's first match on Smackdown was not going to be easy, as she took on the Women's World Champion, Natalya. Mickie gave the champ all she could handle, nearly scoring the major upset with a big roundhouse kick, called the Kiss Goodnight. Natalya rallied though, and when Mickie missed on a diving senton, the Canadian Destroyer capitalized, locking in the Pin-Up Strong submission hold and forcing the newcomer to tap out.

Winner: Natalya


Tyson Kidd vs Christian

Both members of the tag title match on Sunday were in action, with their partners watching on at ringside. Captain Charisma wasted no time getting going, as he had and Tyson began brawling right away. Both men put on a show for the Smackdown fans, going back and forth with impressive offensive maneuvers, with Christian eventually getting the upper hand. Obsessed to prove he doesn't need Edge to win, Christian connected on a Spear, but not using his own move hurt him, as Kidd kicked out just before three. Christian lost his cool, slapping Kidd several times, firing up Tyson, who then connected with a Code Blue. It would've been over then and there, but Edge saved his buddy, distracting the referee. Christian finally got his head straight, and used his own move, the Killswitch, but it was Cesaro who helped his tag team partner out, distracting the official. Christian went after the King of Swing, and Kidd capitalized, looking to put Christian away. However, Christian had one more trick up his sleeve, rolling up Tyson with a small package to get the three count. Christian may have won tonight, but when Cesaro and Edge are involved on Sunday, will it be a different story?

Winner: Christian

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...

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. ...
