Jack Swagger vs AJ Styles

The WWE Champion in singles action is a rare sight, and AJ Styles took this opportunity to taunt the fans about that fact. His arrogant attitude almost cost him a few times, but ultimately Jack Swagger fell to a Phenomenal Forearm.

Winner: AJ Styles


Nikki Bella vs Nia Jax

The Fearless One would have to live up to that nickname as she went one on one with the Female Destroyer, Nia Jax. Jax was dominant for a spell, but Nikki showed her resolve and continued to fight. She capitalized on a mistake, as Nia got a little too confident, and Nikki scored with a Rack Attack 2.0 to pick up a huge win and move right into championship contention.

Winner: Nikki Bella


A Perfect Challenge

Tye Dillinger make a waves yesterday, when he challenged the Social Outcasts to one more match on social media. It will be a one on one match, with all other members of the group barred from ringside. If Tye wins, then the man who accepts his challenge must leave the Social Outcasts. If he loses, then Tye Dillinger must leave SmackDown Live.


The Usos vs The Wyatt Family

Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper looked to do what their number one contenders Enzo and Big Cass could not, and that was defeat The Usos. Jimmy and Jey showed off their impressive teamwork, as it was clear they had the advantage two on two, delivering multiple superkicks. The man advantage came into play for the Wyatts, as Erick Rowan interfered several times. This gave Harper an opportunity to connect on a facebuster to pick up a huge win for the champs.

Winners: The Wyatt Family


Randy Orton vs The Miz

The Intercontinental Champion had more than just The Miz to deal with, as Sami Zayn took a spot at ringside to watch the action. The presence of his number one contender clearly got under Orton's skin, as he put in a less than great performance. The Awesome One was in the driver's seat for most of the match, coming close to scoring a huge win after he locked in the Figure Four. Despite all of the punishment he dished out, Miz eventually fell prey to a RKO.

Afterward, the Apex Predator wasn't finished. He got in the face of Zayn, slapping him and then dropping him with a second RKO. Message sent.

Winner: Randy Orton


Brock Lesnar vs The Club

The undying determination of Brock Lesnar has been a talking point in the past, but never was it on more display then on this night. Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows threw everything at Lesnar, but the Beast Incarnate survived it all. Double team moves, power moves, suplexes off the top rope, nothing could keep Brock down. The Machine Gun connected with a Gun Stun, but that wasn't enough. The two men combined for their finishing maneuver, the Magic Killer, which has put many away before, but even that wouldn't be enough. Gallows lost his cool, grabbing a steel chair, before smashing it over the back of Lesnar for a disqualification.

After the match, Anderson and Gallows continued to attack Lesnar, with Styles making his way to the ring to join in on the beatdown. This drew out Roman Reigns and Cesaro, neither friends of Lesnar, but each wanted a piece of The Club. It was complete chaos as SmackDown went off the air, all six men brawling in the ring.

Winner: Brock Lesnar

Latest Update on new puppy

As you may well know from my mom's posts, there is a handsome puppy in the house. His name is Rascal, which appropriately fits him. Before Tuesday, he'd never had much problem with the crate, something I found interesting. He'd also never experienced anxiety issues when people came and left. Then yesterday, my dad and I were standing in the driveway organizing things for a trip to Goodwill. All of a sudden, Rascal freaked out. Some history behind the newest member of our family. Rascal was a stray in Hollister, when CARE, a rescue organization, found him. At this time Rascal was estimated to be about 2 months old, the age of a puppy when you first get them. He went to another family, who had him for quite a while, around 5 months. Then, without explanation, this family moved to Ohio, surrendering Rascal. CARE once again had him and his crazy antics for about a month. Rascal's name was changed to Boots in his time with CARE, but he wouldn't answer to that name. He ...

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 ...
