Henry's Universe Mode #135: Main Event

Apologies for Main Event being a day late. I've lost all interest in this show, and I'll be making an announcement after WrestleMania about its future.


On this episode of Main Event, Brian Kendrick faces Noam Dar, with the winner receiving a Cruiserweight Title Match next week. Plus, the World's Largest Athlete Big Show in singles action and a women's tag team match.

Kalisto vs Big Show

This was certainly a clash of styles, as Kalisto looked to branch out in singles competition, but ran right into the Big Show. The World's Largest Athlete showed no mercy, and although Kalisto strung some moves together, he eventually fell victim to a KO Punch.

Winner: Big Show


Emma and Dana Brooke vs Summer Rae and Eva Marie

Emma and Dana looked to get back on the same page after facing each other on SmackDown last week, facing Raw's Summer Rae and Eva Marie. Summer and Eva did well throughout the match, but struggled to put Emma away. Dana finally tagged her way into the match, but was lured into a trap. Eva and Summer used the numbers game on the outside, managing to pick up a count-out win.

Winners: Summer Rae and Eva Marie


Brian Kendrick vs Noam Dar- #1 Contender's Match for the Cruiserweight Title

We've seen these two men work well as a tag team, and now they faced off in singles action, a title match on the line. Early on, it was the veteran instincts of Kendrick that shone, as he slowed the match down and took very few chances. However, a more vicious style suited Noam Dar well, as the Scottish Supernova took Kendrick apart. In the end, the Wizard of Odd was simply out-matched, and Dar knocked him clean out with a big European Uppercut.

Winner: Noam Dar


Noam Dar will challenge Neville next week for the Cruiserweight Title on what will be the final episode of Main Event, at least for now. With WrestleMania right around the corner, the stakes couldn't possibly be any higher.

American Dad "Twinanigans" Review

It's been a while since the last Steve and Roger episode, and this week reminded me why that's such a classic American Dad pairing. This is a genuinely fun episode, filled with some great one liners and even a great callback to the show's past. "Twinanigans" centers around the heretofore unmentioned acting careers of Roger and Steve, who twinned it up as the Smith Brothers. I'm not going to question whether this backstory actually makes sense to the overall timeline; no one watches American Dad for continuity. Steve had to give up acting to attend kindergarten, and wants to give Roger a second chance at greatness. The two head to auditions, where Steve impresses and Roger blows it. It's here the episode kinda misfires, as it's never made abundantly clear why Roger struggles so much at acting. Is he just trying too hard, does he have some form of stage fright, does he not even know what acting is? This part of the story is just never explained, w...

Henry's Pay-Per-View Reviews: ECW Heatwave 1998

As the world collectively loses it's mind over the coronavirus(this could be a fun intro to look back on in the future), the only sanity that can be found is in the ring. Let's take a look today at what is often considered ECW's finest outing, Heatwave '98. - Jokes aside, everyone should stay safe out there. I know it's easy to panic about these mass outbreaks, and I've certainly felt very nervous about everything I've heard and read over the past week. But I think we all need some fun in our lives right now, and this show is the epitome of distraction. - The opening contest is one of the highlights of the night, as Jerry Lynn takes on Justin Credible. Credible has an entire entourage in his corner, including Chastity, Jason and Nicole Bass, and their involvement in this match at times bordered on excessive. But the match begins to hit it's peak when Lynn puts Credible through a table with a hurricanrana, and it's all fantastic from...

Henry's Universe Mode #205: SmackDown Live

Over the weekend, big news was broken by SmackDown GM Daniel Bryan, as he announced two title rematches for No Mercy. First up, Kenny Omega will defend his Intercontinental Championship against Randy Orton, and in the second, John Cena will look to make his first defense as WWE Champion against AJ Styles. Tonight on SmackDown Live, it's another Summerslam rematch in the main event, as Alexa Bliss defends against Emma. Can the Australian Sensation punch her ticket to No Mercy? Plus, Heath Slater takes on Aiden English, and the Phenomenal One, AJ Styles, is in singles action. Universe Mode SmackDown Live September 12th, 2017 Location: Dallas, TX Heath Slater vs Aiden English This was a big chance for momentum for both of these two men, as Slater was kicked out of the Social Outcasts a few months ago, while English's tag team partner, Simon Gotch, was recently released. Both of these men showed a lot of potential, and got the crowd invested on a couple of nea...
