The Outsiders vs Luke Harper and Erick Rowan

Harper and Rowan have been very dysfunctional, and they decided that they want nothing to do with Bray Wyatt, at least for now. Although they performed better without Wyatt judging them at ringside, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall were just the better tag team. A big right hand from Nash put Rowan down for the count, as The Outsiders continue their roll.

Winners: The Outsiders


CM Punk and Baron Corbin vs Rusev and Shawn Michaels

Punk was clearly looking to hurt Rusev, as the Bulgarian Brute would be his major competition in the fatal four way. Despite the focus, Rusev showed his incredible resilience, kicking out of a GTS from Punk, continuing to fight on. However, just when it looked like Rusev and HBK might make a comeback, Michaels deserted his partner, letting Rusev eat another GTS from Punk for the three count. Rusev will be at a clear disadvantage heading into the fatal four way, with the three other members already taking steps to slow him down.

Winners: CM Punk and Baron Corbin


Mark Henry vs Kevin Owens

The United States Champion and newest member of the Raw roster, Kevin Owens, was in for a tough test against the veteran Mark Henry. The World's Strongest Man came out of the gates hot, overpowering KO and putting the champ on the ropes. Quickly, Owens countered back with a big DDT on the floor that turned the tides. A KO cannonball and an impressive Pop-Up Powerbomb, getting the big man off his feet, spelled victory for the US Champ.

After the match, Owens' celebration was interrupted by John Cena's music. The Leader of the Cenation made his way to the ring, staring down KO. He made it short and sweet- John Cena is back for one reason, and that is to become champion once more. He wants Kevin Owens, for the United States Title on the Raw Season Finale. Owens agreed, and the match was officially announced.

Winner: Kevin Owens

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 ...
