Bryan Danielson vs. Anthony Bowens: HIT This was a good match. Probably the best I’ve seen from Anthony Bowens in singles competition. He may be one of the more under-rated prospects on the AEW roster […]
Kenny Omega vs. Alan Angels – HIT A nice Kenny Omega style match to kick-off Dynamite. Some people will be displeased that Omega went about 10 minutes with Angels, but Omega dominated most of the […]
Lynch vs. Belair – HIT: Raw got off to a great start. It was nice to see the pre-match interviews with both Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair before their Women’s Championship match. It is a […]
I must take a moment here to address the decision by ROH (and parent Sinclair) to shut things down after the December PPV for a few months to reorganize and figure some things out. I […]
Bryan Danielson vs. Eddie Kingston: HIT Although I would have preferred the build-up to the match taking place on the actual shows instead of the first promo being on a reality show commercial, I was […]
C.M. Punk vs. Bobby Fish – HIT A good match to kick-off Dynamite as C.M. Punk competed in his 5th match in 7 years. Every Punk match still takes a moment to readjust to seeing […]
Hits Smart Start An obvious-yet-excellent move to capitalize on the backstage intrigue from last week by starting with Charlotte Flair. Love her or hate her, Flair is a commanding presence that feels main event with […]
Bryan Danielson vs. Dustin Rhodes – HIT A terrific match to kick-off Dynamite. It has been said before, but Dustin is remarkable at his age. When you think of everything he’s done and what he’s […]
Opening Segment – HIT: This is a marginal Hit. These parade of challengers segments are beyond played out in WWE. This one made sense as the challengers all just arrived on Raw from Smackdown via […]
JACY JANE & GIGI DOLAN vs. IO SHIRAI & ZOEY STARK vs. INDI HARTWELL & PERSIA PIROTTA – NXT WOMEN’S TAG TEAM LADDER MATCH This “Stairway to Hell” triple threat ladder match appeared no different […]
Hits Electric Opening This three-segment stretch of opening on Smackdown spotlighting the universal championship Crown Jewel match fall-out was absolutely electric. This felt like an enormously important happening with Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, and especially […]
Orange Cassidy vs. Powerhouse Hobbs: MISS (with some minor HITS buried within) Good on AEW for showing footage from Dark last year when Orange Cassidy got a quick victory over Powerhouse Hobbs (though one would […]
Hits EIGHT MAN TAG: CB, JOE KEYS, TAYLOR RUST, and ELI ISOM vs. FOUNDATION (Jay Lethal, Jonathan Gresham, Tracey Williams, and Rick Titus) This match was billed as the epitome of pure wrestling. Seemed very […]
•Carmelo Hayes’ Title Celebration Carmelo Hayes is far, far from the worst talker ever heard in professional wrestling, but thank goodness he has been given Trick Williams to handle the better part of the talking […]
Malakai Black vs. Dante Martin – HIT Another nice showcase for Malakai Black. He’s immediately reached another level since leaving WWE. While I can appreciate the time they’ve taken with his story with Cody Rhodes, […]
Opening Segment – HIT: Raw got off to a good start with the encounter between Charlotte Flair and Bianca Bel Air. They both played their parts well. I liked Charlotte being upset about not getting […]
C.M. Punk vs Matt Sydal: HIT Was the opening match promo just a one-week experiment? Anyway, this was a really fun match with a hot crowd. C.M. Punk has looked better in this last two […]
Hits Return to Form After last week’s pointless, damaging edition of Smackdown, WWE returned to form with a newsworthy show that featured good-to-very-good action and top quality promos. This show was also exponentially better than […]
Opening Segment – MISS: There was some good mic work in the opening segment and it did set up the big main event of Big E & Drew McIntyre vs. The Usos. But, I had […]
JOE GACY vs. TOMMASO CIAMPA If Gacy was able to beat Ciampa in this match, he would be added to the NXT Championship match at Halloween Havoc making Ciampa vs. Breakker a triple threat. Going […]
Kenny Omega, Adam Cole, & The Young Bucks vs. Bryan Danielson, Christian Cage, Jungle Boy, & Luchasaurus – HIT A fantastic match to kick off the 2 year anniversary of Dynamite. The crowd was into […]
– Quick note on the start of the show with a backstage promo with VLNCE UNLTD. It was a pretty standard promo, nothing really special so a neutral grade for this. Hits – As I […]
Hits Paul Heyman That’s it. That’s the hit. Paul Heyman singularly elevated the worst Smackdown in over a year to at least have one moderately important segment with top tier acting and storytelling. It is […]
C.M. Punk/Daniel Garcia/2.0 Promo: MISS First off, props to AEW for including a pre-match interview for the match involving marquee talent. The formula for Rampage seems to be “open with top talent, conclude with the […]
