No Mercy Recap
Main Event: WWE World Title Match - AJ Styles (c) vs John Cena vs Dean Ambrose Ok, it was really weird having this match go on first. But the guys put on a great show regardless. The match went 21 minutes and didn't really feel like it; they could have easily gone another ten. Styles … Continue reading No Mercy Recap
Fairfax House Show 2016
Double duty week for me, as I did the Fairfax house show the night after Backlash. Several of the matches were rematches from the night before. Check out my Facebook page for a few of the videos I took but I got some pictures, too. Here's what I saw. Miz vs Dolph Ziggler This was … Continue reading Fairfax House Show 2016
Backlash Recap
Backlash is in the books, and the phrase 'Less is More' perfectly applies here. This was a very good rebound to last month's overstuffed, two clever for its own good Summerslam show that left damn near everyone with a bad taste in their mouths as it ended. We got seven matches in total counting the … Continue reading Backlash Recap
Summerslam/NXT Takeover Thoughts
Summerslam is done and boy was it a doozy. There was some good stuff, but a whole lot that left you shaking your head. I'll just jump right and let it fly.

Extreme Rules Recap
Dolph Ziggler vs Baron Corbin (No DQ) - This was on the pre-show. Decent match, although they didn't use the no-DQ stipulation to the fullest. Corbin should be moving on to some other opponent now. As for Ziggler....no idea. I imagine he'll get into some program with someone that will make for good house show … Continue reading Extreme Rules Recap

Payback is behind us, Extreme Rules looms ahead on May 22, then from there we're on Operation Keep Things Interesting Until Summerslam. So how do they plan on doing that? I'm not sure but there are a few fronts that … Continue reading So where do we go from here?
WWE Payback Recap
Pre-Show: Dolph Ziggler vs Baron Corbin Surprising finish here. I think everyone had Ziggler doing the honors and jobbing, and yet......he won with a rollup. Match was ok, but felt a little short as I watched it live. I honestly don't know where this leaves Corbin. He better get a rematch soon to get a … Continue reading WWE Payback Recap
