Aleister Black vs Brian Kendrick

Aleister Black may not have been victorious in the tournament, but it only made him more dangerous, as he had a point to prove. Kendrick did his best to slow Black down, but he was worn down with kick after kick, strike after strike, and eventually put away with a Black Mass.

Winner: Aleister Black


Carmella vs Ember Moon

The new NXT Women's Champion was making her first appearance in Full Sail University as she took on the Princess of Staten Island. Although Carmella has a lot heart, and she fought well, it just wasn't enough, as she was taken out with a middle rope stunner.

Winner: Ember Moon


Neville(c) vs Ricochet- Cruiserweight Championship Match

We were scheduled to have a cruiserweight championship match in our main event, but the Elite Athlete, Apollo Crews, had other ideas. He jumped Ricochet during his entrance, obviously not forgetting Ricochet's surprise victory a few weeks ago. The two men exchanged right and left hands on the stage, as officials tried to break things up. Crews was the man that stood tall, delivering a spin-out powerbomb onto the unprotected steel. It's clear the problems between these two men are far from finished, and now GM William Regal will have to decide what is next.

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 ...

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...
