Henry's Universe Mode #133: Raw

We are now just under two weeks away from WrestleMania, and following the events of last week, Dean Ambrose has made a massive challenge. He wants The Undertaker at the event, in a Hell in a Cell match. The Deadman has accepted, and what a collision that will be. Plus, World Heavyweight Champion Goldberg faces Roman Reigns, Asuka is on the warpath and more!

Hype Bros vs #DIY

We saw the Wyatt Family get in a warm-up match last week, and now it was Gargano and Ciampa's turn. They were very impressive as well, working over Zack Ryder for much of the match and finishing him off with a knee smash/superkick combo.

Winner: #DIY


The Champ Takes Back Her Title

Sasha Banks had been bragging about stealing Asuka's belt last week, but her actions would come back to bite her, as the Empress of Tomorrow jumped her backstage. This was a downright mauling, taken to another level, when Asuka gave Sasha a German Suplex through a table. She calmly retrieved her championship from Sasha's luggage, as the Boss received medical treatment.


Sami Zayn vs Alberto Del Rio

The Underdog from the Underground had a lot on his mind, after being challenged by Kevin Owens last week to one last match at WrestleMania. A fired up Zayn was no match for Alberto Del Rio, who was on the back foot throughout, being put away with a big Helluva Kick.

Winner: Sami Zayn


Sami Zayn Promo

That was not all from Sami, though, as he then grabbed a mic. He went through the his sordid history with Kevin Owens, and said he would like nothing more than to face his former best friend once more. However, this time it will be no ordinary match. Sami Zayn will face Kevin Owens at WrestleMania......in a Last Man Standing Match!


Balor and Itami vs Golden Truth

The tag champs were now in action as they prepared for the elimination tag team match at WrestleMania. Finn Balor and Hideo Itami showed off some of their impressive tag team offense, and Goldust and R-Truth simply weren't in the same league. A Coup de Grace from Balor picked up another win.

Winners: Balor and Itami


Chris Jericho Promo

The United States Champion then made his way to the ring, ready for another open challenge. He rand down the list of names he's beaten, and declared himself the greatest champion in Monday Night Raw history. He then challenged any "stupid idiot" to come down to the ring and make themselves famous. Jericho's challenge was answered by the Face That Runs the Place, John Cena. Cena questioned Y2J's claim, declaring that Jericho's arrogance had blinded him. But John Cena was not here to face Chris Jericho for the United States Title- instead, he wants to face Jericho at WrestleMania, on the biggest stage possible. Y2J accepted, and the two men stared down.


Goldberg vs Roman Reigns

This was a very intriguing main event, as should Roman Reigns defeat Cesaro at WrestleMania, we could very well see these two square off for the World Heavyweight Title down the line. One man who has something to say about that is The Destroyer, Samoa Joe, who took a seat at ringside to witness this big encounter. It seemed that Joe's presence served to motivate Goldberg, who took it to the Big Dog. Reigns was in all sorts of trouble right out of the gate, as he quickly took a Spear. As the World Heavyweight Champion looked for a Jackhammer, Samoa Joe intervened. The distraction allowed Reigns to capitalize with a Spear of his own, but it wasn't enough to keep Goldberg. A second Spear connected, then a third, but the champ continued to kick out, determined to prove his dominance. Roman, frustrated, fell victim to a big spinebuster, and then another Spear. For a second time, the champ looked for a Jackhammer, but Samoa Joe distracted the ref. He would pay for it, as he then took a Jackhammer, but that opening allowed the Big Dog to roll up Goldberg for a shock win.

Winner: Roman Reigns


Animosity continued to grow between Samoa Joe and Goldberg, as the latter suffers a massive humiliation. These two men will go at it sooner rather than later, and there will be no one to stand in their way.

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 ...
