Rich Swann and Ricochet vs Brian Kendrick and Noam Dar

 Both teams worked well together, and it was an exciting back and forth match. Kendrick and Dar focused most of their offense on Swann, as they realized Ricochet was the bigger threat. This proved to be successful, as Kendrick connected with a Sliced Bread #2 to pick up the win.

Winners: Brian Kendrick and Noam Dar


 The New Day vs Kane and The Ascension

Xavier Woods may have been choked out by Samoa Joe on Raw, but The New Day were still feeling the power of positivity as they took on the former Team Kane. It was a great display for Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xaiver Woods, as it was Xavier picking up the win with a wheelbarrow facebuster to Viktor.

Winners: The New Day


TJ Perkins(c) vs Neville- Cruiserweight Title Match

With a lot of bad blood between both champion and challenger, you knew this wasn't going to be an ordinary championship match. Both men quickly started brawling off the start, and it was TJ Perkins that took control early on. The King of the Cruiserweights made a crucial counter, reversing the Detonation Kick into an inverted frankensteiner. He then connected with a Red Arrow, but failed to put TJ away. A frustrated Neville made a series of pinfall attempts, but Perkins kicked out of each and every one. Neville looked for a second Red Arrow, but the champion rolled out of the way and locked in the TJP Clutch. The vicious submission hold came so close to ending the match, but Neville hung on long enough to reach the ropes. Both men got back to their feet for an exchange of strikes, neither holding anything back. Out of nowhere, Neville pulled a new trick out of the bag, a guillotine choke, that shocked everyone. TJ had no choice but to tap out, and we had a new champion!

Winner and the NEW Cruiserweight Champion: Neville


The King of the Cruiserweights has claimed his crown as the Road to WrestleMania continues. Thanks for tuning in.

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...
