WWE Fast Lane 2016 recap(AKA Pure Torture)

After an admittedly high grade for the Royal Rumble, could the WWE follow up on the momentum from a good event? No, no they couldn't.

This was just a horrible and poorly structured show, continuing with the annual tradition that they started last year. The main event was disappointing with a horrible finish, a poor undercard, and was generally boring and predictable. There really isn't that much to say, and the matches themselves were only memorable for being so sh**.

Kalisto and Del Rio on the pre-show was fine for what it was, and the opening Diva's tag match was actually pretty good. Sasha Banks is pretty good at this professional wrestling thing, and was definitely performer of the night. Owens-Ziggler was good for what it was, but I don't understand why fans should care about their fortieth match of this month. There was a six-man tag, and a Diva's title match, neither of which mattered or were important in the slightest way.

Styles-Jericho was easily the worst of their encounters, and only served to further illustrate the point that Jericho is over the hill. These two could easily have stolen the show, but ended up being possibly the worst aspect. Then there was a bullsh** segment with Edge and Christian and The New Day that was the worst wrestling segment in history. I say that not as an exaggeration, but as a fact. Curtis Axel-R-Truth was easily match of the night, for the simple reason that it ended quickly.

It's main event time, and it's time for the worst possible way to book this match. It was barely the longest match of the night, and was just so dull. The only enjoyable moment of the match was when Dean Ambrose became the smartest man in the WWE when he realized that YOU CAN USE WEAPONS!!! Then Reigns speared him, and that was that. I'm not even going to complain about Reigns' win, because I'm simply tired of mentioning his name.

1/10

I couldn't find anything more to write about this show, and I sincerely apologize. I'll try to put some more work into writting some more posts, but I'm just not in the mood. I'll stick around long enough to review Wrestlemania, but if they can't improve, then I'm on the #CancelWWENetwork bandwagon.

American Dad "Twinanigans" Review

It's been a while since the last Steve and Roger episode, and this week reminded me why that's such a classic American Dad pairing. This is a genuinely fun episode, filled with some great one liners and even a great callback to the show's past. "Twinanigans" centers around the heretofore unmentioned acting careers of Roger and Steve, who twinned it up as the Smith Brothers. I'm not going to question whether this backstory actually makes sense to the overall timeline; no one watches American Dad for continuity. Steve had to give up acting to attend kindergarten, and wants to give Roger a second chance at greatness. The two head to auditions, where Steve impresses and Roger blows it. It's here the episode kinda misfires, as it's never made abundantly clear why Roger struggles so much at acting. Is he just trying too hard, does he have some form of stage fright, does he not even know what acting is? This part of the story is just never explained, w...

The Route of Life

dedicated to my hermits, who changed my life Ch 1 My Hermit crabs Hermit crabs are sometimes hard to take care of. Especially when you never had a hermit. Last Sunday afternoon I got 2 Hermit crabs. Their names are Crabbe and Goyle. I have talked with many sales people. The first Petco we went to (where we got the hermits and their things) seemed to have no idea on the subject. So we ended up going to Dolphin Pet Village. They were more experience at the subject. Now we have some of the things we will need. Last week, I went to a second Petco. There we got a cuttlebone, which is the bone of a fish. Now they look happy. Have a good day Hermit Crabs! Ch 2 Curious Crab The week before last week, my mom looked into my crabitat and found that one of my crabs had climbed one of my fake trees. It was on the top branch. Later, when I was changing to get ready for bed, the crab fell out of his branch. I hope he is okay. He’s definitely starting to look okay. How funny do you think that story is...

Henry's Pay-Per-View Reviews: ECW Heatwave 1998

As the world collectively loses it's mind over the coronavirus(this could be a fun intro to look back on in the future), the only sanity that can be found is in the ring. Let's take a look today at what is often considered ECW's finest outing, Heatwave '98. - Jokes aside, everyone should stay safe out there. I know it's easy to panic about these mass outbreaks, and I've certainly felt very nervous about everything I've heard and read over the past week. But I think we all need some fun in our lives right now, and this show is the epitome of distraction. - The opening contest is one of the highlights of the night, as Jerry Lynn takes on Justin Credible. Credible has an entire entourage in his corner, including Chastity, Jason and Nicole Bass, and their involvement in this match at times bordered on excessive. But the match begins to hit it's peak when Lynn puts Credible through a table with a hurricanrana, and it's all fantastic from...
