NXT Takeover: Tokyo Card


The Ascension(c) vs War Raiders- NXT Tag Team Championship Match

The Modern Day Vikings known as Hanson and Rowe have made an immediate impact on NXT, going right after the tag team champions. This promises to be a major hoss battle to open the show, but which team will reign supreme?


Apollo Crews vs Velveteen Dream

After EC3 cheated to beat Velveteen Dream, Triple H announced the Dream would get another chance, this time against the former NXT Champion Apollo Crews. Dream got into Crews' head, costing his friend Akira Tozawa a shot at the Cruiserweight Championship, leading to a confrontation between both men where Dream would score a cheap shot and then scamper to the back.


Cedric Alexander(c) vs KUSHIDA- Cruiserweight Championship Match

It was new signing KUSHIDA who unintentionally benefited from the actions of the Velveteen Dream, becoming the number one contender over Tozawa. The Time Splitter is very familiar with competing in front of the Tokyo crowd, and will attempt to end Cedric Alexander's reign before it even truly begins.


Toni Storm(c) vs Io Shirai- NXT Women's Championship Match

The Genius of the Sky, Io Shirai has awed the NXT faithful over the past few months, using her incredible skillset to work her way up the ladder. Now she gets her chance against the seemingly unstoppable Toni Storm, who has beaten just about everyone in the division.


EC3(c) vs Hideo Itami- NXT Championship Match

Former NXT Champion Hideo Itami recently revealed that his career is winding down. His hard hitting, no limits style has taken it's toll, with many specialists recommending Itami hang up the boots. But Hideo is not ready to leave just yet, wanting one last shot at glory, challenging EC3 to a championship match. The champion initially declined, but accepted when Hideo gambled it all, offering to retire should he lose. After 18 years, multiple championships and a whole list of stellar matches, it all comes down to this. Championship vs Career, as everything Hideo Itami has accomplished in his distinguished career comes down to one more match.

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 ...
