Opening Segment – MISS: I liked the more serious tone from The New Day as they interrupted the championship celebration of Bobby Lashley. However, the serious tone didn’t last long. They still had their usual […]
ADAM COLE vs. CARMELO HAYES Adam Cole was told to pick his opponent this week by William Regal. Tonight, he came out and said he wasn’t going to start playing by the rules now and refused. […]
Jake Hager vs. Wardlow (MMA Rules) – HIT There are plenty of ways to book a worked MMA fight. Being that this was the first time setting up an actual octagon next to the ring, […]
Hits Early Trip to Hell The reasoning for the rushed battle between Roman Reigns and Rey Mysterio might be suspect, but the match itself was a captivating and satisfying one that felt like a special […]
Opening Bit – MISS: Everything with Alexa Bliss ends up a miss. It was hard for me to look forward to anything happening on Raw when the first thing I saw was Bliss. I didn’t […]
WILLIAM REGAL’S ANNOUNCEMENT Regal cut a heartfelt promo that recapped his time in NXT, from the announce desk to the position of GM. For the successes of all the NXT Takeovers in various cities across […]
BRONSON REED & MSK vs. LEGADO DEL FANTASMA – WINNERS TAKE ALL: NXT TAG & NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIPS A predictable opener, but an energetic way to kick off Takeover: In Your House. Bronson Reed and […]
Hits The Roman Reigns Show Another week and another best-in-show performance by Roman Reigns. At this point, everything that Roman touches turns to gold, and it is now safe to add Rey Mysterio to the […]
Christian Cage vs. Angelico – HIT A solid win for Christian Cage. Angelico looked credible and created a lot of movement during the match. Although Christian works a more traditional style, the fans still got […]
Opening Segment – MISS: Raw did not get off to a good start. Seeing the entire Raw tag team division in the ring to start the show preparing for the battle royal just reminded me […]
AUSTIN THEORY vs. ONEY LORCAN This match came about after last week each man defended their leader, Johnny Gargano and Pete Dunne respectively. We were shown the two brawling backstage earlier in the day as […]
The Young Bucks vs. Pac & Penta El Zero Miedo – HIT This Young Bucks gimmick is fantastic. They’ve defined who they are as ego driven materialistic heels who can have any style of match. […]
Ilja Dragunov vs. Noam Dar – HIT This was an unexpected match given that you wouldn’t think they would fight each other. It’s happening because of a segment from the Supernova talk show. The match […]
This week, Nate Lindberg and I swapped the recap and Hits & Misses due to my schedule. Let’s see what we’ve got. KYLE O’REILLY vs. JOHNNY GARGANO vs. PETE DUNNE – #1 Contender Triple Threat […]
MizTV – MISS: The Miz and John Morrison can be entertaining and I have to admit to being amused by a lot of Morrison’s antics during this opening segment. The problem is that they come […]
Hits Family Affair Chalk the Jey Uso and Roman Reigns backstage segment as the absolutely best segment on Smackdown this year, perhaps ever. The acting and the depth of story between Jey and Roman is […]
SHOTZI BLACKHEART & EMBER MOON vs. RAQUEL GONZALEZ & DAKOTA KAI I really like Shotzi and I really like Ember. But when you put them together as a team, I find them almost grating. In […]
Christian Cage vs. Matt Sydal – HIT A solid competitive match between these two. Christian Cage showed off far more in this match than he did with Frankie Kazarian. Matt Sydal was a good opponent […]
Hits Fresh Start Yes the “parade” of champions had a level of corniness to it, but cheers to a fresher start than usual to a WWE show. There was some really good things that came […]
•Zoey Stark vs. Toni Storm It continues to be hilarious how NXT is pretending the TakeOver pre-show match between these rivals is a thing most people actually saw. Since it isn’t, but it’s still been […]
Hits Best Ensemble Cast The addition of Jimmy Uso to the main event storyline of Smackdown is another, long-awaited boost to the best cast of top tier performers in all of WWE and perhaps wrestling […]
Jon Moxley vs. Yuji Nagata – HIT It’s always a treat to see a star from another promotion. New Japan veteran, Yuji Nagata, put together a short, but fun match with Jon Moxley. Moxley came […]
Noam Dar & Sha Samuels Supernova Sessions with Nathan Frazer – MISS Another talking segment with Dar. Samuels started with Dar talking about how fans don’t like the segment and he heeled on them. At […]
Having just played an older version of Street Fighter earlier in the day, this edition of NXT Hits and Misses will take on some SF undertones – FIGHT!! AUSTIN THEORY vs. KARRION KROSS Austin Theory […]
