vote with your wallet and Hollywood would stop making terrible fucking movies.
The public's wallet has to outweigh the discounted loans they get for preaching The Message. Disney lost like a billion last year on woke movies any are still making them, but other studios without as deep pockets might actually be going back to giving the customers what they want. Shocking concept, that.
 
Oh fuck off Mr too cool for the room you're only saying that because you can't fucking afford NBC



I'm voting for wrestling dude. I don't watch any of the crap they have on there.

I pay $1.99 for wrestling.

I used to have to pay like 50 bucks for a pay-per-view. Sue me.
 
I am unfamiliar with that trick will you please explain it?
Sirius XM radio when you get a new subscription they'll give you an introductory rate after 6 months when it expires you say I don't want this anymore fuck off. They will give you another introductory offer rinse and repeat

If only XM radio still had any good shows on it.

But Noooooooo... Anthony cumia had to go on Twitter drunker than me and get himself fired.

Opie and Anthony is gone, the bonfire doesn't have Dan Soder anymore, I honestly can't think of anything that would be worth getting XM for.

If you do know of a program please let me know cuz I will do the XM trick.
 
That's why I love you boo. You're so good to me.

Nope Don't use any of those services so I wouldn't know if there's anything worth listening to
 
Dude they build it as "we are going to get to the bottom of this and expose every perverted degenerate thing he did to those women" and they ended up blowing him for six straight episodes.

Utter disappointment.
Ironic, since this is Netflix we're talking about. The same network that aired "Dear White People", you'd think they would have no problem blasting whitey for taking a dump on a poor defenseless women, but i guess if he's lining their pockets then it's O.K.?

i mean I had a feeling they were all hypocrites but this just cements it.

It was UNBELIEVABLE. I was sitting there and I finally got probably to the end of episode 3 and it hit me and I looked over at my girl and went "oh my God, they are NEVER going to get to the bottom of the scandal like they said they would in the trailer"

I was fucking PISSED. But what do you expect from a company that literally got sued by the Egyptian government as well as archaeologists for claiming that Cleopatra was a coon?
 
So WWE is hitting us up with two back-to-back live events, Saturday night main event on July 12 and the all female show Evolution the next day on the 13th.

SNME is on free TV on NBC and Netflix and the Evolution show is on Peacock and Netflix.

They are constantly adding matches at the last minutes so I will edit this post as new matches are added.

Here are my predictions for that show:

Saturday Night Main Event
1. Randy Orton v Drew McIntyre

I don't think that Randy Orton needs to win as badly as Drew McIntyre does. He's been off for a while and he needs to establish his dominance, so I'm calling this one for Drew. WWE doesn't have enough strong bad guys right now, it just makes sense business wise for Drew to pick up the pin.

2. Seth Rollins v LA Knight

I really want LA Knight to win this one, but I don't see it happening. He's super over with the crowd but he never can quite clench main event status because of bad booking. I want him to win, but I have to call this one for Seth.

3. World heavyweight title match Gunther v Goldberg

Yes, fucking GOLDBERG. The guy from the '90s who's almost 60 years old is challenging for the world heavyweight title. If this match is anything but Gunther dog walking the fuck out of this old man, it will devalue his character.

I'm hoping and praying and wishing for a Goldberg ass beating.

Evolution

1. Battle Royale for a shot at the women's world championship next month in Paris

I really don't know who to pick here because the participants are TBA. My money is on my dark horse Kairi Sane because I feel like she's going to be getting a monster push sometime soon.

2. Jacy Jayne v Jordynne Grace

I have to tell you I don't watch NXT which is WWE's developmental show, so I couldn't give a fiddler's fuck about this match. I'll probably be making a sandwich or taking a piss during this snooze fest. Idk, Jordynne Grace I guess.

3. Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez v Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair v 2 other women's teams TBA

It goes to show you how little of a fuck they give about female wrestling when they can't even figure out who half of the teams participating for the tag team belts are yet. That being said my money's on Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez.

4. Jade Cargill v Naomi

Jade Cargill is a specimen but Naomi has been doing the best work of her career playing a psychotic heel. I'm calling this one for Naomi just for the crazy factor.

5. Tiffany Stratton versus Trish Stratus for the WWE women's championship

So it wasn't enough that we have OLD-berg challenging for the men's belt, now we have to dig deeper into MUH NOSTALGIA and watch a 50-year-old Trish Stratus fight through the ring rust for a title match she didn't earn nor deserves.

Hopefully Tiffany retains because this match is a joke.

Speaking of fucking jokes....

6. Iyo Sky v Rhea Ripley for the women's world heavyweight championship

You know the fact that Rhea Ripley is going to win like she always does wouldn't bother me as bad if they would have let Iyo defend her fucking belt.

They made this woman who has credibly beaten men in the ring go EIGHTY FOUR DAYS without a title defense, and now we all know she's going to hand the belt over to Rhea God damn Ripley.

It's sickening how this overbooked, under talented, charisma vacuum who can't wrestle keeps getting the belt from everyone especially since Iyo Sky had to sit on her hands for 84 days and now it's going to make her look stupid when she loses the title.

I know what'll cheer me up. Here's a picture of Iyo in a bikini:

1000004329.jpg


Sigh. I know Ripley's going to win but I'm still rooting for Iyo Sky. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised.
 
Edit: Ok, shows over so I will not be updating live anymore.

Okay so after advertisements for Snickers and the cheap pops of watching wrestlers enter the building, we start off with Seth Rollins. The crowd is going ape shit for him even though he's a heel.

1000004337.jpg

(Pictured: Seth Rollins being awesome)

On an unrelated note I hate that UFC bought wrestling, because look at how many dumb fuck ads are on the mat. Annoying. What's also annoying is the fact that Bron Breaker has spent the last 5 minutes crying about Sami Zayn.

After literally 15 minutes of promo we get a recap of judgement day winning the tag belts. Backstage segment with them. The funniest part about this group is that Raquel Rodriguez is literally taller than all the male members, clocking in at 6 foot. Fine ass chicana bitch.

Ok FINALLY, a good fucking match. It's time for the pirate princess Kairi Sane.

1000004339.jpg

(Pictured: Fine ass Joshi)

Roxanne out of the corner hammering on Kairi's back. Claws the eyes but Kairi keeps countering all her bullshit. Doing the spot where both of them keep going for a pin over and over again. Kairi gets an arm bar but Roxanne gets her feet on the ropes. Kairi connects with a solid spinning back fist she calls the cutlass. Kairi on the top rope but Raquel interferes.

Gay ass commercial. Thanks, TKO. It's bad enough when you bought this company that you put slim jim logos on the tables and 18 advertisements on the ring mat, now every time the matches get interesting I have to watch Pedro Pascal be a faggot in some new slop marvel is putting out.

God damn these Joshi wrestlers work stiff. (They make me stiff too, wokka wokka) Kairi landing some decent offense but Roxanne nails her with a kick. Moonsault from the top but Kairi kicks out. Roxanne goes to hit her in the corner but Kairi moves and TOTALLY botches a simple kick lol. Roxanne on offense again but can't get a 3. She's getting frustrated. Both women to the top, Kairi hits a really good Alabama slam and Raquel pulls Roxanne out of the ring. Kairi says fuck you and jumps on them. Roxanne tries to do her finisher but Kairi hits her with a good counter for the 3.

Post match Raquel and Roxanne are beating up Kairi. Asuka hits the ring and is fucking them both up. Asuka got a hanging arm bar off the ropes on Raquel and then they double team an insane elbow on Roxanne. It was nice to see the Kabuki warriors back together tonight even though they are singles wrestlers now.

1000004340.jpg

(Pictured: Asuka celebrating with Kairi)

Another 3 minutes of commercials. Because after I get a chubby watching a Japanese girl beat the shit out of a South American girl, I want to see a commercial for rocket money.

I almost forgot before the commercial they did a backstage interview with Sami Zayn that got interrupted by Scarlett.

1000004341.jpg

(Pictured: holy shit)

Tits ahoy, baby.

It's just been announced that Kairi and Asuka will be in the tag team match on Evolution, which means the Kabuki warriors will be back probably for one night only.

Whatever Bella Twin is married to Daniel Bryan is doing some kind of pre-taped promo about how she's entering the Battle Royale on Sunday. Wow... I don't care about this at all. Bitch can't wrestle.

You know I have to be honest with you, you really don't realize how much filler is on a wrestling show until you are reviewing it in real time. It has been 50 minutes and there has been ONE wrestling match so far.

Speaking of which Sami Zayn is coming out for a match. Karrion Kross came out of nowhere and just started beating on him with a pipe. I'm not gonna lie, that popped the fuck out of me. I'm still laughing about it as I'm typing this. He came out to all that pageantry and his theme and he just got beat with a lead pipe hahaha.

1000004342.jpg

(Pictured: fucking LOL)

Another commercial segment. I hate to admit this but this R rated remake of naked gun with Liam Neeson actually looks like it could be funny.

Back from commercial and I guess Sami Zayn is going to have the match anyway. Dude he's FUCKED UP lol. Here comes Bron Breaker, baby. Oh my God this is going to be a fucking SQUASH MATCH.

Bron in the ring just making fun of the fact that this is the second week in a row that Sami Zayn got beat up with a lead pipe. Puts Sami in the corner and just smashes his busted ribs again and again. Calling the crowd pathetic for cheering for a bum while he's stomping on Sami's midsection. Oh SHIT, he just threw him up in the air and then made him land stomach first on his knees. That actually look like it hurt for real. Think of a backstabber except he did it by throwing him up in the air and he put his knees in Sami's stomach instead of his back. Quality suplex out of the corner by Bron and he's getting ready for the spear. Sami actually hits a decent clothesline instead of eating the spear. Sami getting fired up and goes to the top rope but Bron hits an EVIL spear as Sami jumps from the top. Bron to the outside and runs all the way around the ring to hit another spear. He got that DAWG in him. I love that the crowd is chanting "one more time" lmao. He throws Sami back in and hits the ropes three times before nailing another spear for a three count. Fucking SQUASH match. That shit was cool as hell.

Dumb nigger team backstage whining about losing their tag titles and literally dressing up like women at a funeral because they're in mourning

1000004343.jpg

(Pictured: gay niggers from space)

Another commercial break. I don't even think shooter McGavin and MJF can save Happy Gilmore 2. I don't know... it's going to be free on Netflix so I guess I'll watch it, but Adam Sandler hasn't put out a really funny movie since the '90s. Probably why he's going back to the well with a Happy Gilmore sequel. Remember in Billy Madison where his girlfriend was Sonya Blade from the Mortal Kombat movie? God DAMN she was fine in the 90s.

Back from commercial and Becky Lynch is in the ring. Wow, I do not care about this bitch. Get Canadian health insurance, Becky. Ugh, somebody gave this Mick cunt a microphone. PLEASE GOD, let her get interrupted. How does Seth Rollins fuck this harpy? He probably puts duct tape over her mouth and a bag over her head. Bayley and Lyra interrupted her, thank fucking Christ. Listening to two Irish bitches argue with their retarded accents confirms that all the good micks immigrated here decades ago like my family did. God damn this "we all want the mid card belt" whining is making me wish for another commercial break.

1000004344.jpg

(Pictured: boring Irish bitches squeaking)

Jey Uso coming out to wrestle Bronson Reed. The only thing gayer than this guy's entrance through the crowd is the fact that Cardi B is going to be hosting SummerSlam this year. Well at least they spared me his 10-minute long entrance with a commercial break.

Oh goodie, a Superman movie trailer. More capeshit slop that has taken over movie theaters ever since the dark knight came out. And that's exactly what I want to see, a Superman movie by James Gunn, a dude who had questionable tweets about pedophilia and even went to a pedophile themed party dressed as a priest hosted by the lead singer of mindless self indulgence who was later accused of sexual misconduct with multiple 15 year olds when he was well into his 30s.

FIVE MINUTES of commercials and we're back and Jey Uso's entrance is still going. Bronson Reed finally coming out. Bronson Reed will always be funny to me because he looks like one of those characters you make in a wrestling video game as a joke when you set the maximum weight to "fat" plus give him an Australian accent.

I'm not even sure how to call this match. Jey Uso can't wrestle, it's the same lame kicks and running into the guy when he's in the corner he always does. Finally Bronson in control and he's just spamming him over and over again with elbows. Watching somebody so fat continuously jump up in the air like that, I can't help but be reminded of @Ashley Hutsell Jankowski ....just a boring fat fuck being repetitive. Jey sets Bronson up in an office chair and super kicks him. God damn Bronson just got disqualified because Jey went to do a suicide dive to the outside and Bronson THREW THE FUCKING OFFICE CHAIR INTO HIS HEAD. Splash from the top rope. Another splash. God damn, Bronson Reed completely disregarded CTE protocols with that office chair lmao. Fast cut the commercial, which means he might have actually got hurt.

1000004345.jpg

(Pictured: CTE)

Back from commercial and it's a pre-tape about the Iyo vs Rhea match. Yeah, don't have your most popular female wrestlers come out and talk to each other in the ring, just play a tape. It's bad enough that Iyo hasn't defended the title since April 20th.

Well since we're not going to get to see Iyo on TV this week, here's that hot ass picture of her in a bikini again:

1000004329.jpg

(Pictured: My celebrity crush. I'm so sorry Anne)

ANOTHER. FUCKING. COMMERCIAL. BREAK. This is unbelievable. Why do they keep making Madea movies? They're literally can't be that many niggers in America for these movies to be financially successful.

El Grande Americano taking on Dragon Lee. Having a pretty fast paced lucha match, it's a nice change of pace to see the Mexican style on American television. Dragon Lee with a cross body from the top rope. Waist lock into a wrist lock and it turned into a bunch of really cool flipping moves. A hard dropkick to the face and throwing outside on to the commentary table. You know what time it is. Tope suicida that was met with a hard kick In the head.

I'm not kidding, ANOTHER COMMERCIAL. Fuck this company. God forbid we miss a skittles ad and get to watch an entire wrestling match without a commercial break in the middle of it.

Back from commercial and the match has lost a little bit of steam but it's still pretty good. Dragon Lee hit a sick double stomp into El Grande's face while he was sitting in the corner. Really nice modified neckbreaker from the top rope by El Grande. Grande was hanging upside down from the top rope and dragon Lee stomped the shit out of his face. It made a slap sound. Kick out at 2, and I'm legitimately surprised that didn't end the match. El Grande wins with a diving headbutt.

1000004347.jpg

(Pictured: hard hitting lucha action)

Penta shit talking Paul Heyman backstage and it's legitimately funny if you speak Spanish because they're getting away with cursing at each other lmao.

Guess what's up next? Seriously just guess. Yep you guessed it... Another round of commercials. Because God forbid I miss out on an advertisement for Domino's or chewy pet insurance.

Promo for the new wrestler Stephanie Vaquer. I hope she wins The Evolution Battle Royale. She's a sexy little piece of South American ass, white skinned Chilean.

1000004349.jpg

(Pictured: South American sex appeal)

Gunther coming out to shit talk Goldberg. I'm still in disbelief that this Saturday they're going to let that 60 year old man wrestle for the fucking heavyweight championship. Goldberg just pulled up to the arena. Why the FUCK is the crowd cheering? Because an old guy is coming? He's so fucking old he just got gassed just from walking to the ring. Punches Gunther and Gunther leaves the ring. Don't worry Gunther, I would have left too instead of committing elder abuse.

1000004350.jpg

(Pictured: OLD-berg)

Penta walking out to the ring for his match but I guarantee you there's going to be another commercial. Aaaaaaand..... Yup, more commercials. God forbid I miss an ad for whatever poison big pharma is pushing these days.

Penta hits the ring and the crowd pops HARD. Cero miedo, bitch. Seth music hits, crowd pops just as hard. I love that Seth is supposed to be a heel but his entrance music goes so hard you can't help but love it.

The match is going a mile a minute, pretty 50/50. These two are knocking the shit out of each other and the crowd is eating it up.

Oh wait hang on.... We need another commercial break because the people need to understand how important cash app and minute maid juice is. I can't believe that they would even interrupt the MAIN EVENT with commercials.

Back from commercial and Rollins is cut on his eye. He wiped the blood on Penta's mask, that's a great heel move. Rest hold and Penta powers out and chops Seth about five times and then kicks him in the head, follows up with a sling blade and a hard kick In the head in the corner. Penta does that awesome spot where he does the handstand on the top turn buckle and holds it until he's ready to kick his opponent in the face. Penta hits a backstabber for a 2 count.

The crowd is chanting "this is awesome" shut the fuck up, crowd. We know it's awesome we're watching it. Rollins hits a nasty looking gut buster and a frog splash from the top rope for a 2. Rollins goes for a curb stomp but Penta moves. The crowd is chanting for CM Punk. Fuck this crowd. They are both on the top rope together and they are OBVIOUSLY calling the match lol. Hurricanrana into a Penta driver for an extremely close 2 count. If the referee would have been in position Penta would have won. Rollins does a buckle bomb but Penta immediately turns it into a Mexican destroyer. Seth getting a hold of the rope is the only thing that saved him. Rollins use the back of his head to nut shot Penta and curb stomps him. 3 count, Rollins wins.

1000004351.jpg

(Pictured: Rollins victory)

Bronson Reed and Bron Breaker come out to beat up Penta but LA Knight runs out from the crowd and hits the bft on Seth Rollins. The show goes off the air with LA Knight in the crowd laughing as his music plays.

1000004352.jpg

(Pictured: L! A! Knight! YEEEEA!)

Pros:
The Kairi v Roxanne match stole the show.
Karrion Kross beating Sami Zayn with the lead pipe two weeks in a row was hilarious.
The main event didn't have any run ins or interference and that's rare.
The lucha match was surprisingly good.
Jey Uso getting hit right on the top of his head with an office chair looked fucking GNARLY.

Cons:
I don't like the fact that Iyo and Rhea were MIA with such an important title match on the line Sunday.
TOO MANY COMMERCIALS!
The first hour only had one match.
The 15+ minutes of talking at the beginning of the show was overkill.

OVERALL GRADE: B+
 
Sorry I started this one late, and so far it's been pretty good.

Randy Orton vs Drew McIntyre

This is actually a pretty decent match, both guys came out to some good crowd reaction. Randy Orton had jelly roll with him and Drew McIntyre had Logan Paul with him, which I felt was kind of unnecessary.

I kind of tuned in at the end of this and wasn't really paying attention but Randy Orton won, and afterwards Drew McIntyre gave a claymore to jelly roll which was pretty fucking hilarious.

Okay, I'm reviewing live now so here we go:

Tomorrow's PPV teasers

They teased the main event tomorrow and showed Iyo in the crowd

1000004379.jpg

(Feelin cute, might stomp out and Australian Marilyn Manson looking bitch later)

They cut to Jade Cargill in the crows and Naomi snuck up from behind and started beating the shit out of her. Legitimately hilarious. It went on for a good 5 minutes, and the Raw GM came out and announced that Bianca Bel-Air will be the special guest referee. That's pretty cool, we haven't seen her since WrestleMania 41.

1000004378.png

(Niggermania!)

Cutting to a package of The Goldberg match that's coming on later. Surprisingly there hasn't been a lot of commercials tonight, which only highlights more how bad it is on Netflix.

Jimmy Uso coming out now, bro is definitely cycling out on gear. He's got a belly and is trying to hide that shit with weird pleather shirts. We are now in what I believe is the first commercial break of the show, 35 minutes in. If this was on Netflix we'd be on our fourth one by now.

Jimmy Uso vs Solo Sikoa for the US title

1000004380.jpg


Match starts with Solo just talking shit. Okay fellas we're back from commercial you can start fighting. Jimmy hitting some good chops but gets elbowed. Shit cans solo out of the ring then suicide dives on him. Jimmy jumps from the top rope but solo turns it into a rock bottom. One count. Man they are really fucking laying it in. Shenanigans on the outside from Solo's crew. I love how blind this referee is.

Commercial break. It's been 10 minutes. See, I said something about how appreciative I was of less commercials and now I jinxed it.

Fighting on the apron and solo slammed Jimmy into the ring post. Sounded gnarly as fuck. Jimmy hit a muffed up looking German suplex. Jimmy to the top with the cross body for a 2. Jimmy did that move that all the Samoans are doing where they run from one corner to the other and just smash their ass into their opponent's head. It actually seems like a really smart move to perform on somebody if you were fighting for real in a wrestling ring. Solo counters the spear with a need of the chin and hits a belly to back suplex. Messes with the Samoan spike and Jimmy answers with two superkicks in a row. Jimmy goes to the top but Solo rolls out to his boys. Oh look they're all standing there group together on the outside I wonder what's going to.... Spinning moonsault on all the dudes. Rule of thumb if you ever see a bunch of dudes clumped together on the outside, someone is going to jump on them from a great height. It's like Chekhov's top rope spot. Chicanery from solos boys help some clench the victory. He is still the champ and now 4 guys are jumping Jimmy.

Jacob Fatu music hits and everyone explodes. For such a large guy he is really agile. Tala Tonga gets in the ring and Jacob doesn't care. Beats his 7 foot tall ass, suicide dives on everybody to the outside and jumps back in the ring and starts tarding out for the crowd. It's awesome.

1000004381.jpg

(Jacob Fatu, not giving a fuck how tall someone is before he knocks them out)

Commercial break but that's a given because the match ended. 3 commercial breaks in an hour... I can live with that, that's fair.

Jelly roll getting apologized to by Randy Orton. Lame ass backstage interview. Why the hell is this jelly roll guy even here. Oh my God... Jelly roll is going to be in a match at SummerSlam? Fuck this company.

Seth Rollins vs LA Knight (YEEEEEEEAAAAA)

Seth Rollins comes out to everyone hyped up to his music. They try so hard to make him a bad guy, but when you literally dress and act and laugh like Waluigi there's nothing you could do to make the crowd hate you.

LA Knight comes out and the crowd loses their shit. They really need to put a belt on him while he's still hot. He's been over as hell with the crowd for years and they've never had him win a belt yet.

1000004382.jpg

(Rollins and Knight square off)

Dropping into the action. Trading some hard hits but LA Knight gets the upper hand. Takes Rollins to the outside and slams his head over and over again into the announce table. The crowd is chanting LA Knight and Seth gets up and tries to quiet them down lol. Seth misses the curb stomp and Knight gets a jumping neck breaker into a plant DDT then an elbow from the top for a 2. They have a gigantic advertisement for the new naked gun movie in the middle of the ring. Way to whore yourself out, WWE. Rollins hits a nasty buckle bomb but can't follow up with it. The buckle bomb really should be a finisher and not just a move. I remember when the Canadian destroyer was like that too, it used to be the end of a match now it's just another move.

Rollins fucked up his knee but they aren't cutting to commercial so I'm pretty sure its a work. Yeah it was a work, as soon as Rollins got up LA Knight hit the BFT for the 3 count. He might have just told the doctor he could finish the match and took that BFT to end it. I'm not sure if this is legit or not.

Obvious commercial break before the main event

Goldberg vs Gunther for the WHC title

Okay there's no way that this fucking match is going for 30 minutes. I'm thinking that Seth might have been faking it so he can cash in on whoever wins this match.

I have to admit even though he's like 60, Goldberg's entrance to the ring is still fucking badass. Whoa, I think he had the dude from Oz with him that played Chucky Pancamo lol.

1000004383.jpg

(I'm like 99% sure the guy on the very left is from Oz)

Oh man, they are REEEEEALLY stretching out the introductions on this match lol. Ok, so 20 minutes of show left and I still don't believe that Goldberg can go that long. Here's hoping he can prove me wrong.

The bell rings and Goldberg is milking the crowd. I'm pretty sure they're going to go with another commercial break and figure out a way to whittle this thing down to a 10 minute long match at best. All Goldberg has done so far is come out to the ring and push Gunther down once and he's gassed and covered in sweat. He's barely moving and Gunther is selling his little shoulder tackles like death. Gunther hits a HARD chop that Goldberg no sells. Hard clothesline from Goldberg and punching Gunther in the corner. I have no idea why a man half his age is selling for him so hard. This has been a complete one-sided fight so far and it's nonsensical. Goldberg tries for a spear but Gunther rolls out of the ring. Fighting on the outside and Goldberg's chest is turning so red from Gunther's crazy chops that you can see all his grey chest hair. Goldberg tried to hit a spear on the outside and went through the barricade and it was pretty funny.

Here's that commercial break I was telling everybody about. Yeah they're going to run the clock out as best they can for this shit show.

Back from commercials and they are trading hits. I'm really not seeing a lot of cardio moves here, just a lot of standing still at each other and trading some slaps. Goldberg hit a decent looking body drop but now he's selling his knee like he has an injury. That's in poor taste if Seth Rollins injury is legit lol. Why would you follow a real knee injury with a kayfabe one? Goldberg goes in for an Irish whip and obviously communicates to Gunther. Back body drop and he goes for the spear but accidentally hits the referee. Fucking awesome, I love when the refs get taken out. Gunther working the knee and tearing the knee brace off of Goldberg. Hitting Goldberg supposedly hurt knee and hitting him in general with some of the weakest shots I've ever seen with a little knee brace. Goes to the outside and is hamming it up for the crowd and gets in Goldbergs familys face. Gunther fucking slapped his son and they actually had to blur it out because I think he's underage lol. Fucking Gunther just slapped a kid on network television hahahaha. Goldberg hits an extremely weak spear and a jackhammer. A new ref comes in and Gunther (thank God) kicks out at 2. Gunther locks the sleeper in and Goldberg is trying to fight it. Thank God he can't. Gunther retains the title. And all is right with the world.

1000004384.jpg

("Fuck you, old man!" - Gunther)

Hahaha, the cherry on top of the Sundae? Right as Goldberg started to get his farewell speech, NBC cut to the next show. That's perfect.

Pros:

Way less commercials than on Netflix
Matches had good outcomes
I got to see jelly roll get kicked hard in the face tonight
Gunther slapping a teenage boy in the face on live network television and them having to blur it out
NBC cutting off Goldberg's farewell speech to play their next show

Cons:

Jelly roll should never be allowed near a wrestling ring nor a microphone ever again
Literally 5 seconds of Iyo Sky is CRIMINAL
Seth May have gotten legitimately hurt
The match between Goldberg and Gunther should not have been as competitive as it was. Having someone that old and who doesn't wrestle anymore almost beat the world heavyweight champion makes Gunther look weak and buries him

Overall Grade: A-
 
So I totally goofed last night and got to the end of the PPV by the time I realized I didn't review it. Long story short the most important thing that happened was Iyo lost the belt. Bummer.

So the show is kicking off with Naomi, the negress who cashed in money in the bank and stole the title from the Iyo vs Rhea match. She's literally talking like aunt Jemima. She can't cut a promo to save her life. At least she can wrestle.

Rhea comes out and puts an end to this foolishness. Thank you, Rhea. You know that things are bad when Australian Marilyn Manson impersonator cuts a better promo than you. OH MY GOD, Iyo just came out and the outfit she has on she needs two hairdos to wear. Cheeky. I love it. Adam Pierce comes out and sets up a match at SummerSlam between the 3 for the belt.

1000004392.jpg

(Two hot girls and a nïgger talking)

Fucking commercial.

Getting into the action early as the Kabuki Warriors are coming out. Up against Roxanne and Raquel for a future title shot at the belts. Asuka and Raquel trading shots, the crowd is losing it for Asuka. Roxanne tags in and cheap shots Asuka. Stiff shot you can hear, Asuka is pissed. She grabs Roxanne by the hair and kicks her in the face about 10 times. Kairi tags in for a double team on Roxanne. Kick at one. Hahaha, the announcer just said one of my favorite sayings about hitting on other women when you're in a relationship: "just because you're on a diet doesn't mean you can't look at the menu" Asuka and Kairi get double bars, Raquel is able to pick Kairi up and slam her onto Asuka.

ANOTHER. FUCKING. COMMERCIAL. God forbid I don't hear about slim jims or shark week in the middle of a match.

Roxanne looks like she regrets getting in the ring with these new Japan women. The Kabuki warriors are basically putting on an exhibition here. Raquel tries to make the save but Asuka pulls down the top rope and shit cans her. Elbow from the top rope but Dominik distracted the ref and Raquel pulled Roxanne out of the ring right before the three. Raquel sent into the metal ring post and Asuka is beating Roxanne like a crash test dummy. More Dominik shenanigans, Asuka plants him with a spinning back fist but Roxanne steals it with a school boy.

Backstage with Paul Heyman talking about Seth's knee injury. Hyping Bron Breaker in The gauntlet match later tonight.

Commercial. That's 3 in 35 minutes.

Bayley coming out for a 2/3 falls match for the IC title against Lyra. Jesus Christ, do you think you got enough women's matches on this card? They LITERALLY just had an all women's match pay per view 24 hours ago. They tie up and Lyra is holding Bayley in a headlock and won't let up. Lyra to the top and Bayley gives her head pats like she's a weeaboos girlfriend, which was pretty funny. Slap across the face and a roll up and now Bayley wins the first of three. Now wrestling logic dictates that Lyra will win the second, thus negating the reason to have a 1/3 falls match.

(Bayley, stalking her prey)

Commercial break because why not? It's only been 10 minutes.

Back in and Lyra is is in control with quality kicks and clotheslines. Goes for the tornado DDT but it doesn't connect. Double drop kick into the corner, tornado DDT connects, turns it into a fisherman's suplex and arches her back for the pin but it's a 2. Irish whip reversed and Bayley hits a cross body into Lyra's back. Clean looking dropkick between the top and middle rope, but Bayley hits a belly to back on the ring apron. I can't believe that was a two count. She literally just won with a slap and a roll up earlier. A moment of actual grappling and Lyra gets the 3. Now they both have one win, like I said they would.

Commercial break. You can show me as many commercials for Marvel's latest shit stew with that faggot Pedro Pascal, but I'm still not going to see it. I watch highbrow cinema, like Beetlejuice and LITERALLY anything made by George Romero.

You can tell they are getting gassed because they aren't really doing much except throwing sloppy punches and kicks around. Lyra from the top but Bayley turns into a belly to belly suplex but it's only a 2. Bayley now to the top but Lyra punishes her and hits the Nightwing. For 2. On the ring apron again and a big move is being teased by both. It ends up being Lyra who hits a devastating fisherman's suplex on the ring apron. Bayley hit a sweet looking running power bomb onto the steel steps and she turns it into a elbow onto Lyra's spine. Now a cross face. Lyra somehow hits another Nightwing and gets the 3. This was actually a great match. That stairs powerbomb looked nasty. Becky Lynch comes out and does that thing where she holds the belt and they talk trash to each other.

(Lyra gets the pin right on top of a giant slim jim logo)

Stephanie Vaquer talking backstage and gets interrupted by Chelsea Green and her goons. Nikki Bella coming out about to show us what a girl who was literally picked out of a lingerie catalog and turned into a wrestler can do. Let's hope Chelsea Green has the skills to carry this match.

Commercial break, but we haven't had one in a while so I'm not annoyed. You know I could not have to watch these commercials by upgrading Netflix, but literally the only thing I watch on Netflix is wrestling so I'm not spending more money on this gay woke company than I have to.

Back from commercial and Karrion Kross cut a pre-taped promo with his woman that was cooler than I'm betting this next match will be. The announcers are telling us that this is Bella's first match in 7 years. Yeah we know she sucks, you don't have to make excuses. Chelsea is trying really hard to make Nikki look good, but her offense is faker than a prostitute's orgasms. Chelsea hits a dope backstabber, 90% of this match has been outside of the ring to give Bella a break. I can't even describe this because now they're throwing those fake looking wrestling headbutts that you would do to your brother when you were a little kid, and rest holds. I mean the commentators don't even know how to call this. I'm officially giving up on this match it stinks. Nikki wins, nobody cares.

("I used to fuck John Cena!")

I never thought I'd be happy to see commercials.

Gunther coming down to the ring. Finally, some fucking TESTOSTERONE on this show aimed at men. He's swaggering around, insulting the crowd and bragging about how he retired Goldberg. This is how a heel acts.

1000004399.jpg

(Gunther, trash talking the crowd because she beat up an old man on Saturday)

Bron Breaker interrupts and we're going to get this shit underway. It's GAUNTLET time. They are cutting promos and hyping this main event up.

Commercial, but that's kind of expected because we are about to go into a long ass gauntlet.

Penta about to kick it off and I SINCERELY doubt he's going to win this gauntlet match because it's a you know... Gauntlet match. This is basically a wave of dudes coming one after another to wrestle Bron. I severely doubt he's going to get beat by the first guy. Penta jumps right on him with kicks and punches. Bron eats it and starts throwing Penta around like a doll. Crossbody off the top by Penta. He can't capitalize as Bron hits a good clothesline to a splash out over the top out of the ring onto Bron.

Commercial. Thank you, wrestling. I needed to see a commercial for the 37th Madea movie instead of this match.

Back in and Bron presses Penta and drops him on to the steel steps. Back in the ring and Bron hits a good suplex, and STOPS HIS OWN PIN ON A GUY SO HE CAN DO PUSH-UPS IN THE RING. Fucking awesome. An amazing looking belly to belly overhead suplex at the commentators just call a "throw" because they're retarded. Bron nails a spear for the 3.

(Bron hitting Penta at runaway slave speed)

LA Knights music hits. Fuck. This means he's going to do the job tonight. LA Knight looking strong starting out with all the offense. Jesus Christ, he's back on a cycle of gear like Drew McIntyre is. Trust me you don't have a body like that after 40 unless you're on some shit. And I'm on TRT and don't look half that good so he must be shooting up fuckin horse hormones. Dumps Bron over the top with a clothesline and hits him with a baseball slide. Slamming his head into the announced table, this match has been 100% Knight. Bron FINALLY gets an offensive move in by hitting Knight in the midsection and how convenient that he did it right before a commercial break? 😏

1000004401.jpg

(L! A! Knight! YEEEEEEEAAAAA!)

Back from commercial and Bron is still working the midsection but he can't put Knight away. Hit the ropes into a double clothesline (a lot of clothes lines tonight) and Knight hitting a series of punches and a neck breaker into a DDT. To the top with an elbow drop but can only get the 2. Knight goes for the BFT but Bron rakes the eyes and spears for 3.

The next one out is Jey Uso, a guy with a great intro, a great look, a great promo... The guy can do everything but wrestle. Bron drinks from a bottle of water to sell the fact that he's getting tired. Flurry of punches by Jey into a suicide dive.

Commercial break.

Jey gets a weak looking cross body and does the Samoan butt slam in the corner that they all do. He does it again. I love how everybody steals shit from Jacob Fatu because he's actually the coolest Samoan dude in the company. Frankensteiner from the top only for a 2. Jey superkick, superkick, spear. I swear to God he spams the same couple of moves like when your girlfriend tries to play Street Fighter with you. Bronson Reed interferes and Bron gets a 3 after a dope spear.

1000004402.jpg

(Bron can't believe he's getting his ass kicked by some Polynesianigger who says yeet)

Here comes CM (the CM stands for child molester) Punk. Of course he has to start off beating the hell out of Bron because God forbid this chump isn't booked strong.

Commercial break.

Back from break and Punk is getting his shit in. Atomic drop and Bron hit him with an OVERHEAD BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX, STOP CALLING IT A "THROW", ANNOUNCERS. Bron it starts chanting CM Punk at the crowd and mocking Punks shit while he's beating him up in the corner. I like when Bron is making jokes, he has really lacked personality since he's come to the show and I'm glad he's starting to develop a character. Bron grabs Punk and is OBVIOUSLY talking to him but I don't blame him because he's had to wrestle three guys, at this point I wouldn't remember what I was supposed to do either. Frankensteiner but Punk rolls it into almost the 3 count. Hard kick to the head but Punk can't follow through, they both go to the ground. Neckbreaker by Punk into the running knee, into the macho man elbow for a 2, but Punk hits the anaconda. Bronson Reed comes in and splashes Punk because fuck you, no DQ lol. Ghey Uso comes back down and takes Reed out. Bron goes for the spear but Punk knees him and hits the GTS. Punk will face Gunther for the belt at SummerSlam. Lame.

1000004403.jpg

(A picture of lameness)

Post match and the bad guys are killing Punk and Jey.

Oh shit I was expecting some kind of lame running for the good guys but I wasn't expecting Roman fucking Reigns! He takes out everyone and the show ends with Roman dominant in the ring. Pretty cool ending.

1000004405.jpg

(Roman's back, it's about fucking time)

Pros:
- Gauntlet match was great
- Naomi's casual Asian racism was actually pretty funny. For a second there I thought she was an Onion Farms moderator
- Roman Returning, obviously
- The Kabuki warriors match was stellar, as always
- The commercials were toned down
- Lyra and Bayley had a great match


Cons:
- CM Punk won the title shot
- Rhea Ripley is in Iyo's rematch, no explanation given
- Too many women's matches the night after a women's only pay per view
- WHY IS NIKKI BELLA ON MY TV IN 2025???
- Lyra and Bayley had no reason to be 2/3 falls
- there were moments of this review that felt hard to write because they weren't good.

Overall Grade: C+
