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.

The Route of Life

dedicated to my hermits, who changed my life Ch 1 My Hermit crabs Hermit crabs are sometimes hard to take care of. Especially when you never had a hermit. Last Sunday afternoon I got 2 Hermit crabs. Their names are Crabbe and Goyle. I have talked with many sales people. The first Petco we went to (where we got the hermits and their things) seemed to have no idea on the subject. So we ended up going to Dolphin Pet Village. They were more experience at the subject. Now we have some of the things we will need. Last week, I went to a second Petco. There we got a cuttlebone, which is the bone of a fish. Now they look happy. Have a good day Hermit Crabs! Ch 2 Curious Crab The week before last week, my mom looked into my crabitat and found that one of my crabs had climbed one of my fake trees. It was on the top branch. Later, when I was changing to get ready for bed, the crab fell out of his branch. I hope he is okay. He’s definitely starting to look okay. How funny do you think that story is...

One Monday night my mom looked into my crabitat and found that a crab had climbed into one of my fake trees. It was in the top branch. I looked in later, and found that the crab had fallen out of the tree. I hope he is okay. What a day!

Lost and Found: The Legacy of Bray Wyatt

On August 24th, 2023, the professional wrestling world experienced yet another devastating heartbreak, as Windham Rotunda, aka Bray Wyatt, passed away at the age of 36. Wyatt has a number of accolades to his name after over a decade spent in the WWE, having won the namesake championship once, in addition to competing at multiple WrestleManias. That's the cliffnotes version, the driest form of exposition to summarize one of the most captivating careers we as wrestling fans have ever witnessed. But Bray's legacy and impact, brief as it was, is truly one of a kind.  "Potential" was the buzzword for Bray from the very beginning, and even at his earliest stages as a performer, it was impossible to ignore. Bray's early days spent tagging with his younger brother, the future Bo Dallas, in the soon-to-be defunct Florida Championship Wrestling passed without notice, but the two third-generation progenies found the spotlight quickly. The grassroots of NXT formed under their...
