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.

Curious Crab

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. ...

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...
