Cody Rhodes opening promo – HIT Excellent promo to start Smackdown. The opposite of the typical WWE promo train. Cody wanted to call a truce between Sami and Kevin Owens. I liked how Cody went […]
INDI HARTWELL vs. TIFFANY STRATTON Was tonight the night for Indi Hartwell? That was the question being asked on commentary many times throughout the course of the matchup. The winner of this match would go […]
Edge – Balor – HIT: I haven’t cared much about the ongoing saga of Edge against The Judgement Day. I think that he and Finn Balor can have a very good match at WrestleMania. As […]

Opening: Bully Ray talking: Miss I rewatched this at x1.75 speed on rewatch and it still seemed to take forever, Bully Ray vs. Bhupinder Gujjar: Miss. If Bully Ray was not talking and just putting […]

Opening Revolution PPV Highlights Package: MISS I appreciate the attempt to show non-PPV-buying fans what they missed, but this wasn’t anywhere near sufficient. If you blink, you missed it. None of the major happenings on […]
Owens vs. Sikoa – HIT: This was a big night for the continuing saga of the Bloodline, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. It started off with the short bit in the back with Paul Heyman, […]
TONY D’ANGELO vs. DIJAK – JAILHOUSE STREET FIGHT No DQ, no count out, no submission. You must put your opponent in the jail cell and latch the door to win! Apparently, this is a match […]
BTI Decay vs. Heath & Rhino: Miss Straight up, all I wanted out of this match was the Gore vs. a Black Taurus horn charge; the closest I got to that was a few shoulder […]
Orange Cassidy defeated Big Bill to retain the AEW All-Atlantic Title: MINOR HIT A fine opener with Big Bill getting a lot of offense in an an interesting match-up of styles. Although he lost, one […]
Opening Segment – HIT: WWE keeps slowly telling the story of the Bloodline and this was a good step in that story as we saw Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa without Jey Uso. Jimmy did […]
PRE-SHOW: Countdown to No Surrender •Deonna Purrazzo vs. Gisele Shaw (with Jay Vidal) – HIT: Barely. This was a perfectly fine match, it did what it was supposed to, allow the commentary team to really […]

Natalya & Shotzi vs. Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler – MISS The good. The Montreal crowd made noise during a women’s match. The work overall was fine—the bad I understand the thought process of building […]

Opening Segment – HIT: This was a pretty good start to Raw. There were times when Becky Lynch and Bayley were a little annoying in their back and forth which brought the segment down, but […]
Paul Heyman opening promo – HIT This promo was outstanding to start the show. Heyman is in great form with his delivery and facial expressions. Sami Zayn is showing he’s no longer the stooge within […]
MJF defeated Konosuke Takeshita in an Eliminator Match: HIT Very good professional wrestling match. MJF is exceptionally talented at building heat during matches and giving his babyface opponents sufficient payoffs to satisfy the crowd, even […]
Opening Segment – HIT: This opening segment with Edge and Beth Phoenix being interrupted by The Judgement Day was solid to good, just good enough to get a marginal Hit. That was actually how I […]
SOL RUCA vs. ZOEY STARK Stark is clearly on a path for success after this victory over Sol Ruca tonight. She was already on a great path before her impressive showing at the Royal Rumble […]
Braun Strowman & Ricochet vs. Imperium – MISS The match quality was fine, but I don’t know about a strange bedfellows team winning the tournament, especially if WWE is splitting up the tag team titles. […]
