Exciting news for the blog

As a part of my resolve to deliver the best experience to you, my readers, I have recently undergone a massive change to the blog. You may have noticed that the name of the blog has changed; that's right, from now on my blog will be known as Henry's World, instead of the previous Otter World name. This re branding is another major step forward for the overall image of my blog, and I hope everyone is happy with the change. (Note: You may notice the domain has changed as well, to keep up with the new name).

WWE Wrestlemania 32 Recap

The grandest stage of them all, the showcase of the immortals, the place where dreams come true....sort of. In an event with a few highs and plenty of lows, the overall mood felt just a little off. Whereas Takeover: Dallas felt like the best NXT had to offer, Wrestlemania 32 was certainly not the best the main roster had to offer. That's not to say this event was horrible, it was more pleasantly mediocre. It wasn't the worst 'Mania of all time, but it definitely wasn't the best. Let's stop rambling and get to it. I'll start with the pre-show, lumped into one paragraph. The US Title Match wasn't bad, but there was quite a few problems getting fans in so the arena was mostly quiet during the match. The Diva's tag match was fine, I guess, and the Usos and Dudleyz had a match that was a match. By far the highlight of the pre-show came from guest Lita, who hinted that she had a big announcement. She was not pregnant, though thanks for that one Twitter, but...

NXT Takeover: Dallas Recap

You may have noticed that I forgot to mention this show when talking about my upcoming posts, and that was purely a mistake. As a result, today you are getting a double header. First is NXT Takeover: Dallas and later today, my recap of Wrestlemania 32. Let's get rolling. The opening contest between The Revival and American Alpha was about as good as anyone could've expected. Two fun, well put together tag teams fought tooth and nail over those NXT Tag belts, with the right team, American Alpha, walking away with the gold by the end. Kudos to the new champs for delivering the most emotional moment of the night as they celebrated their biggest win to date. Following that came the only dark spot on this amazing card, but to be fair to them, Aries and Corbin were never going to live up to the standards set by the rest of the night's performances. Good debut win for Aries. Shinsuke Nakamura and Sami Zayn are two of the greatest performers in the business today, and the match...

WWE 2k16 Universe Mode Week 4: Extreme Rules

(Apologies for the lack of content, and you can go ahead and forget the schedule I mentioned in Smackdown's post. There will likely never be a schedule on this blog, and I think it's better for it.

Some Bad News :(

Hey Otterworld fans, I have to apologize for the lack of content that's been coming out on the blog recently. That's what this announcement is about, as a matter of fact. After a lot of time spent thinking, and some real soul-searching, I have come to the realization that I simply cannot run this blog anymore. I've poured my heart and soul into this blog for so long, and believe me, this decision was not an easy one to make. From now on, this blog will still exist, but new content will cease to be posted from here on out. I'd like to thank everyone that's enjoyed this blog over the years, and I thank you for your support. Thanks, Henry Happy April Fools, suckers. :)
