OPENING MONTAGE – HIT: This was 30-45 seconds of retelling the most recent chapter of Tim Storm vs Nick Aldis with a haunting piano playing one note at a time. The lines of Aldis telling […]
Main Event Starts & Stops – MISS: WWE often will do something like this, having the main event early in the show only because of some storyline reason which doesn’t make sense. In this case, […]
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a heck of a 2020 to everyone! Roderick Strong North American Title Open Challenge – HIT: The show was kicked off with a pants wearing Pat McAfee, Cathy Kelly, and the […]
OPENING MONTAGE – HIT: This is consistently a hit for Power because they give you more than enough replays of the last couple weeks or more of the big storyline, but they add enough and […]
Opening Segment – HIT: This Hit is mostly for Daniel Bryan’s babyface promo which started Smackdown. That was a very strong promo. I like Bryan’s new/old look. It is crazy how much younger he looks […]
Overall – HIT: This is a really good show that had a “go home” type feel to it despite there being one episode before the PPV, Hard to Kill. Some last-minute feuds were added or […]
Overall – PUSH: This is a middle of the road show. Nothing that is presented is what I’d call “must watch” as is the case with most of these Impact Plus specials. I like to […]
Adam Cole (c) vs. Finn Balor for the NXT Championship: HIT – The fact that we are in an era where the women’s championship goes on after the men’s title is a wonderful thing. Mauro […]
OPENING MONTAGE – HIT: It’s a bit jarring to not see the thread of Kamille and her saga as our intro into tonight’s Power but it’s a new season as well. This was a short […]
Seth Rollins – HIT: Seth Rollins had a good night starting with the opening promo where he talked about joining up with the Authors of Pain and doing what he had to do to Kevin […]
ELI DRAKE VS. KEN ANDERSON – MISS: So for much of the lead up to this match (as well as with most of the NWA feuds so far), it never seemed apparent who is heel […]
Jon Moxley vs. Alex Reynolds and Jericho Promo – HIT: Nice squash to open to a hot crowd. This is how Jon Moxley should’ve been booked in week 1. He comes out, lays out a jobber […]
Angel Garza vs. Lio Rush (c) for the NXT Cruiserweight Championship – HIT: We had a taste of this match this week on 205 live. Admittedly, I did not see the match but I did see […]
Overall – HIT: Despite what I thought was a poor start to the show with the RVD/Rhino match, and the first pretty big MISS in the Tessa Blanchard story, I like the overall show. My […]
Overall – HIT: This was a good if otherwise unspectacular show. It felt more like a safe filler episode, one barely moving any of the current storylines forward. Some, like the story of “Suzie” and […]
The Young Bucks & Dustin Rhodes vs. Sammy Guevara & Santana & Ortiz – HIT: Fun opener with some memorable sequences. The finish of the match with the double Meltzer Driver was a memorable visual […]
Mauro Returns: HIT- I was so glad to see Mauro Ranallo back in the booth tonight. His announcing style may not be for everybody, but as far as I’m concerned there isn’t a better announcer […]
Opening Segment – HIT: Raw got off to a good start with Seth Rollins coming out to apologize for his words to the Raw locker room last week. Rollins was good in his role, saying […]
•OPENING MONTAGE – HIT: This was mostly a hit because it set up the main event of the Rock & Roll Express looking for their ninth reign as NWA Tag Team Champions and the footage […]
Opening Segment – MISS: Roman Reigns got a good reaction from the live fans and he did a mostly good job of addressing what happened at Survivor Series. Part of the problem is that he […]
•OPENING MONTAGE – HIT: I’m not sure I’ll always include these, but I really like how they use 45 seconds to a minute just to recap prior events. Wrestling is an episodic show, so utilizing […]
Overall – HIT: I lieu of the Turkey Trot Invitational Tournament that Impact has cobbled together for the week of Thanksgiving in the United States for the last few years, this year, Impact has instead […]
Opening Segment – HIT: It had become painfully obvious that something had to be done with Seth Rollins as the lead babyface on Raw. A heel turn was the way to go. It worked to […]
Chris Jericho Thank You – HIT: Chris Jericho continues to be the all encompassing entertainer. He worked every part of his schtick, including a release of actually bottled Little Bit of The Bubbly. Jericho even brought […]
