Rich Swann and Ricochet vs Brian Kendrick and Noam Dar

Both teams worked well together, and it was an exciting back and forth match. Kendrick and Dar focused most of their offense on Swann, as they realized Ricochet was the bigger threat. This proved to be successful, as Kendrick connected with a Sliced Bread #2 to pick up the win.

Winners: Brian Kendrick and Noam Dar


The New Day vs Kane and The Ascension

Xavier Woods may have been choked out by Samoa Joe on Raw, but The New Day were still feeling the power of positivity as they took on the former Team Kane. It was a great display for Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xaiver Woods, as it was Xavier picking up the win with a wheelbarrow facebuster to Viktor.

Winners: The New Day


TJ Perkins(c) vs Neville- Cruiserweight Title Match

With a lot of bad blood between both champion and challenger, you knew this wasn't going to be an ordinary championship match. Both men quickly started brawling off the start, and it was TJ Perkins that took control early on. The King of the Cruiserweights made a crucial counter, reversing the Detonation Kick into an inverted frankensteiner. He then connected with a Red Arrow, but failed to put TJ away. A frustrated Neville made a series of pinfall attempts, but Perkins kicked out of each and every one. Neville looked for a second Red Arrow, but the champion rolled out of the way and locked in the TJP Clutch. The vicious submission hold came so close to ending the match, but Neville hung on long enough to reach the ropes. Both men got back to their feet for an exchange of strikes, neither holding anything back. Out of nowhere, Neville pulled a new trick out of the bag, a guillotine choke, that shocked everyone. TJ had no choice but to tap out, and we had a new champion!

Winner and the NEW Cruiserweight Champion: Neville


The King of the Cruiserweights has claimed his crown as the Road to WrestleMania continues. Thanks for tuning in.

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...

Curious Crab

One Monday night my mom looked into my crabitat and found that a crab had climbed into one of my fake trees. It was in the top branch. I looked in later, and found that the crab had fallen out of the tree. I hope he is okay. What a day!

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...
