Backlash 2018 Recap

Backlash 2016 Score: 9/10
Backlash 2017 Score: 5/10




- Well, I think this is the first time in history this has happened. Guys, I don't really have a lot to offer about this show. Most of the matches were not great, although there was nothing that completely stood as terrible. It was all......just so pointless. Even a great match, like Rollins vs Miz, was extremely predictable, and turned something good into something forgettable. It just felt like everyone didn't care, from the booking staff to a large majority of the wrestlers, to the fans in attendance. Nothing on this show felt right, and nothing felt like it belonged on a pay-per-view card, to be brutally honest. I feel like Greatest Royal Rumble got a bad rap as the "glorified house show", because this felt a lot more like that. I've run out of energy to talk about this show. One to forget, really. 


3/10(marked down for feeling completely unnecessary)


Throughout my time as a WWE fan, I've been angry plenty of times. I've been frustrated at the product, frustrated at fan reactions and unsatisfied with plenty of shows with great hype. But never, ever, have I felt as hopeless as I did watching this show. There's almost nothing to feel hopeful about, because almost nothing happened. I'm sorry for leaving you guys such a despondent review, but that's how I feel, and I think it's important for you to know. Hopefully in the future, I can get back to enjoying this shows, because that's what I want. I want to enjoy watching WWE shows, and enjoy giving you my thoughts on them, and I just didn't tonight. Let's just move the f*** on.

Henry's Universe Mode: 2017 WWE Draft

We are here today to conduct the first ever WWE Draft, where Raw and SmackDown competitors will learn the fates heading into Season 3 of Henry's Universe Mode. In this post, I will give an explanation of the rules, before unveiling each draft pick and giving you my thoughts. Enjoy! Rules -Each brand will have five draft picks, ten picks total. -Champions are not eligible to be drafted. -Tag teams/stables can be drafted as a unit or individuals, depending on what the GM wants and what the wrestler wants. -Thanks to winning Brand Warfare, SmackDown will get the first pick, while Raw will get the last pick. The 2017 WWE Draft begins..........right now! Pick #1- SmackDown selects Brock Lesnar What a way to start of the draft, as the Beast Incarnate in heading to Tuesday Nights. Since losing to Samoa Joe a few weeks ago on Raw, we haven't seen anything from Brock Lesnar. This move will certainly have most of the SmackDown roster looking over their shoulder. ...

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 ...

With Fastlane just under two weeks away, we have a big night in store here on Raw. Sasha Banks looks to earn another title shot, the tag champs are in non-title action and in the main event, for the first time since winning the Royal Rumble, Samoa Joe is in action when he faces Mark Henry. Universe Mode Monday Night Raw February 20th, 2017 Location: Anchorage, AK Itami and Balor vs #DIY The tag champs were in action to open Raw, and their opponents were the debuting Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa, #DIY. The debutants held nothing back, going straight after Itami and Balor, who were caught off guard. Both Ciampa and Gargano showed off impressive offense, keeping the champs on their heels.

Winners: #DIY Roman Reigns vs Alberto Del Rio Roman Reigns made his return to Raw after that hellacious Falls Count ...
