The Revolution: Episode 10(Finals Preview)

After over two months of competition, we are down to two. Seth Rollins, Cesaro, who will be the new NXT Champion?






Cesaro vs Seth Rollins

Normally, this is where I would discuss each guys run thus far, and take a look at the latest odds. But there's a bigger story here, and that is the health of Seth Rollins. We all saw the despicable acts by Samoa Joe after his defeat, attempting to cripple his fellow competitor. In mere moments, Joe caused major damage, and has been suspended indefinitely by Triple H. But what about Rollins? In an interview with NXT reporter Renee Young two days ago, he stated that he's had some trouble putting weight on the injured leg, with quite a few of the doctors becoming very concerned. Despite that, he told Young that he has been cleared to wrestle the final match, although he will be wearing some extra support to the ring, as well as tape for his ribs, which were injured in the match as well. So, it seems that Seth is going full speed ahead, intending to fight as hard as he can to pay off everything he's gone through with an NXT Championship win. What about Cesaro? He's shown himself to be a bit of a shady competitor in the past, using Sheamus' help to defeat Dolph Ziggler in the first round. If he does choose to exploit the injury, I certainly wouldn't blame him. This is the top championship on the hottest brand in the world, an opportunity to represent NXT around the world, to be a true megastar. I don't think any of us can honestly say we wouldn't do whatever possible to win such a prestigious prize. Regardless, Cesaro is a heavy favorite for the first time all tournament, and you have to wonder just what it would take for Rollins to somehow pull off the win.

Favorite: Cesaro
But the NXT Championship match will not be the only action on the upcoming NXT show, as Triple H has announced two more matches. First, we will see The Revival, the team of Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder, as they face the eccentric team of Breezango. Plus, women's competition, as the daughter of the legendary Ric Flair, Charlotte, faces ring veteran Mickie James.

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...
