Henry's Universe Mode #197: Summerslam(Part 1)

Tonight, it all comes to an end. After a year and a half of blood, sweat and tears, it all comes full circle. Here, in the waning days of August, we bid goodbye to Henry's Universe Mode. But sorrow and regret will some later. There is still one more stop to make, one more fight to take. There will be champions crowned, dreams realized and careers changed forever. That's just what happens around here. For the final time, allow me to present to you my world, my Universe. Welcome to Summerslam.

Emma(c) vs Alexa Bliss- SmackDown Women's Championship Match

These two former allies kicked off the Biggest Party of the Summer, but they were not alone, as Emma had Dana Brooke in her corner, while Alexa was accompanied to the ring by former champion Bayley. From the start, the champion had a plan. She went to work on the back of the smaller Alexa Bliss, doing a lot of damage. Alexa could only just hang on, narrowly surviving a Michinoku Driver from Emma, the move that won her the championship. The heart of Little Miss Bliss was on full display, as she battled back to connect with Twisted Bliss, reclaiming her championship.

Winner and the NEW SmackDown Women's Champion: Alexa Bliss


Rusev(c) vs Jinder Mahal- United States Championship Match

Although these two men had been allies in the past, there was certainly no camaraderie here tonight. They traded heavy blows, neither powerhouse willing to back down. The ego of Jinder Mahal infuriated Rusev, and the Bulgarian Brute was on fire here in Brooklyn. In the end, Rusev proved to be as dominant as ever, locking in the Accolade to retain his championship. 

Winner and still United States Champion: Rusev


The Club(c) vs Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens- SmackDown Tag Team Championship Match

As most might've expected, the champions controlled this match early on. Gallows and Anderson's impressive tag team work was a little too much for just Sami Zayn to handle. The tides turned when Kevin Owens was tagged in, as KO turned into a one man wrecking crew. He and Sami would take turns hitting big moves on both Anderson and Gallows, but the champions would not die, with Karl even kicking out of a Helluva Kick. This didn't faze the challengers, as Owens would be tagged in and dropped the Machine Gun with a Pop-Up Powerbomb to crown new champions.

Winners and the NEW SmackDown Tag Team Champions: Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens


Finn Balor vs Braun Strowman

Late on Saturday night, Raw GM Shane McMahon added the stipulation to this match that the winner would become number one contender to the Universal Championship. With such high stakes, Braun Strowman proved to be an unstoppable as ever, but this time, Finn Balor didn't have The Demon for a mental edge. Balor was still able to deliver a lot of damage, including a Coup de Grace, but Strowman just kept driving forward. He devastated Finn with a Running Powerslam, then another, but the Monster Among Men, wearing the wounds of war, couldn't capitalize. Both men were bloodied, and began exchanging rights and lefts. Finn appeared to have somehow won the exchange, but got caught into the triangle choke. The devastating hold put Balor to sleep, and Braun Strowman avenged his humiliation at Extreme Rules. 

Winner: Braun Strowman


That's the end of Part 1 of Summerslam. Come back later today for Part 2 and Part 3, as the Biggest Party of the Summer continues.

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...
