The Revival vs Golden Truth

Goldust and R-Truth are talented veterans, but it was Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson that controlled this match. They looked very impressive in their debut, using a slow pace to pick apart the Bizzare One, before finishing him off with a Shatter Machine to pick up a big debut win.

Winners: The Revival


 Rich Swann vs Drew Gulak- Cruiserweight Classic Group B Match

This was the classic match up between high flying and technical brilliance, and it was Gulak's slower style that controlled this match. Swann got in his offense whenever he could, hitting some very impressive moves including an incredible 450 splash, but Gulak survived anything Swann could throw at him. Swann avoided the deadly submissions, but fell prey to a vicious scoop slam into the middle rope, that caused Swann some major whiplash. That was enough to get the job done, as Gulak picked up a big three points to open up Group B action.

Winner: Drew Gulak


Zack Sabre Jr vs Cedric Alexander- Cruiserweight Classic Group B Match

This was another clash between the aerial and ground-based styles, and it seemed to be going the same way as the first. Sabre used his bull dog like tenacity and surprising power to ground Cedric, before softening both of Cedric's arms in preparation for his armbreaker submission hold. Cedric wasn't going to lay down, though, and caught Sabre with an impressive Lumbar Check, which came very close to getting the job done. Sabre, rattled, was clearly reeling as Alexander went on the offensive, and the high-flier seemed to be coming close to getting the job done. Sabre caught Alexander with the cross armbreaker, and suddenly Cedric was in big trouble. He dug down deep and fought his way to the ropes, before grounding Sabre with a big dropkick. A second Lumbar Check was enough to put ZSJ away, and pick up a well deserved three points for Cedric Alexander.

Winner: Cedric Alexander


That's it for Main Event. Tune in this Sunday for December's big event, Armageddon, starring both Raw and SmackDown superstars.

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 ...
