Everyone knows I like to put delays on everything I review or just put them on hold for a long period of time. That's just who I am and that's what I plan! Just I recently became even more behind in reviewing and blogging. As you mostly see the only things I've blogged in recent weeks were WWE programs like Monday Night Raw and Friday Night Smackdown. The reason those were the only thing I have uploaded was because there has been personal issues that I'm commited to that I had to do first which made it not possible to review and I just haven't really been catching up with the Toku News I missed in recent weeks. As for why I did the wrestling well it's easier for me to blog cause that's the only time I had free during the problems that had occured. I do plan to get up some more reviews and such within the month and newer blog posts than other to wrestling reviews. As for what you'll most likely see from me in recent weeks I'll down below once I conclude this slight apoligy due to my absence and not so amazing updates. Along with some new reviews from me, I've also been working on new projects along with a very old one I still can't bring to life. Also even thou the reviews will be new the items are technically old since I'm always a month or several behind.
So What You Can Expect in September:
1. D-Arts Beelzebmon
2. Transformers DotM Megatron
3. Transfomers DotM Shockwave
4. Generations Warpath
5. a few Doyle's DVDs, I haven't selected which ones yet

WWE SuperSmackDown 8/30
Overview:
So before SmackDown begins, Facebook and Commerical Promo notified me that tonight Sin Cara faces Alberto Del Rio, Randy Orton face Christian in a Steel Cage rematch for the World Heavyweight Championship, along John Cena face off with Wade Barrett, and finally a contract signing for Night of Champions between CM Punk and Triple H. After that promo we ge the regular Smackdown intro from Green Day, and it makes me wish I had someone to punch everytime I hear it.
Following the whole SmackDown intro, John Cena bursts onto the stage saying "Is today the right day?!" John Cena hits the ring and cuts a promo, about SuperSmackDown live and the Brand Extension being gone while including WCW shows for fun along with XFL. Then Cena calls out Alberto Del Rio, but instead he got Ricardo Rodriguez leading to Cena punching him in face while Barrett made his entrance. Barrett, the goes to insult Cena and such leading into why he demanded a match with him. Finally this all ends up with a commerical break.
We come back to Cena vs Barrett and the two brawl it out. Cena, gets the quick lead on Barrett by hitting a quick Bulldog and Headlock Takedown. Cena, dominated the match completely endding it with a huge Additude Adjustment and pinfall. After the match Matt Striker had an interview with Mark Henry. Henry goes on about how he'll face the winner of the Steel Cage match. Then he gives his own input on Steel Cage matches along with facing himself. Following the short interview, Sin Cara made his entrance leading into another break.
We comeback to Daniel Byran coming down to the ring and makes me completely wonder why is Bryan facing Sin Cara. Seriously this maybe what Ricardo meant when Del Rio couldn't make it. Anyways the two of them fly about and Daniel goes for a quick pinfall. Daniel locks Sin Cara in several amazing submissions and Sin Cara broke out. They eventually fight about with aerial moves, and swift moves coming down to Sin Cara hitting his aerial combo into the pinfall. After, the match Sin Cara kicked Bryan in the face. Shortly after Matt Striker has an interview with the Tag Team Champions, Air Boom about being tag champs.
Next we get a promo for the Christian and Randy Orton feud of the World Heavyweight Championship. It covered everything since Christian winning the Championship at Capitol Punishment, the No Holds Barred match at Summerslam to now. Then after the promo Christian has an interview, about being World Heavyweight Champion.
We get to a Divas Tag Team Match, where Aksana is special ring announcer. The match is between Beth Phoenix & Natalya facing off with Kelly Kelly & Alicia Fox. Kelly and Natalya start off the match, while Natalya and Beth dominate her fast. Alicia Fox, gets tagged in and gets hit with a Glam Slam as Beth picks up the win. Backstage, Triple H and Teddy Long walk to the ring for the signing.
Teddy Long, is already in the ring and announces Triple H as he makes his entrance. Triple H, goes on about how the WWE Board aloud him to make the exchange from Nash/Punk to Punk/Himself at Night of Champions. Following those brief words, Triple H calls out Punk for the signing. Punk, comes about to question the contract Triple H for the match. Then Triple H, goes on about Punk insulting Triple H and how Triple H approved Punk's theme and shirt, along with the match at Night of Championship leading to how Triple H snapped under the pressure. Punk then goes on how he wants the Cerebral Assassin at Night of Champions and wants the WWE to be better, changing it. Triple H, then calls out Punk saying he just wants to be on top like a martyr. Punk retorts about how he'll be the real change around WWE not Triple H. Triple H, retorts to how if it was Vince he'd have to take a beating but instead Triple H will put a beating on Punk at Night of Champions. After the signing, Kevin Nash arrives and explodes on the scene leading to him booting Punk and shoving Triple H down.
During the break, Kevin Nash blows off Matt Striker for an interview. After that we get the Great Khali facing off with Sheamus. Khali takes down Sheamus fast with several chops leading into a weardown submission. Sheamus breaks out, beats down Khali and preps for a Brogue Kick. Before Sheamus hits the kick Jinder jumps Sheamus leading to them teaming up on Sheamus. They beatdown Sheamus for awhile but somehow he manages to power out hitting the Brogue Kick on Khali and Pale Justice/Celtic Cross on Jinder. Now that was some crazy crap, cause usually a 2-on-1 attack you take the beating not give it.
Finally we get to our Main Event the Steel Cage Match for the World Heavyweight Championship. In the opening minutes Christian makes several attempts to exit the cage, each time Orton stops him from getting out. After a break, we come back to Christian and Orton brawling about the ring, while Christian attempts to get out again. Orton tries to hit a fast RKO and fails, but recovers and lands a few moves. As Orton goes for the Rope Hang DDT, Christian flings him into the Cage and follow with a foot choke before trying to climb out again. Orton trys a Roll Up and falls into a SpineBuster. They fight about for awhile, and end up battling atop the top rope with Orton getting a Superplex in.
Follow another break, Orton was controlling the match throwing Christian into the Cage, before Christian countered minutes later. They battle on the top rope again, and Christian reverses Orton pushing him down while following up with the Frog Splash and a unsuccessful pinfall. Christian then attempts a Spear, countered into a RKO that's countered into the Spear. Then Christian tries to Punt, Orton moves out of way. Then he tries to fake out Orton but fails as Orton starts take back the match. Christian recovers and gets on top the cage, while Orton joins him. They battle atop the cage and back into the ring leading back to the top rope, for a Super RKO and a win. As soon as the match ends Mark Henry comes down to the ring and enters the cage. Orton tries to beatdown Henry but is unsuccessful. Henry beats Orton into the cage, then hits him with a Big Splash, back into the cage and finally the World's Strongest Slam. Mark Henry after beating down Orton, holds up the World Heavyweight Championship.
Review:
Well this live Smackdown could've been better! The opening match was just a beatdown to Barrett, but it was expected. Then the match between Sin Cara and Daniel Bryan, pissed me off cause I expected Sin Cara to face Del Rio. Since it was Bryan I was even more pissed, cause they jobbed Bryan to Sin Cara and having Sin Cara turn heel was stupid it felt. Then following that we got some boring crap until the Contract Signing, that's where everything got amazing. The feud between Triple H and CM Punk is turning out great, and the heat behind it is good especially when you got the Wild Card in this, Kevin Nash. The Sheamus/Khali match could've been a little bit better, but the end beatdown was amazing. To see Sheamus take down both Khali and Jinder, was just pure awesome sauce! Now as for the Main Event that was great, just I would've like no commerical interuption. The match played out amazingly and the reversals were amazing. I enjoyed all the Spear and RKO attempts leading all the way up to the Super RKO, that endded it. I foresaw, Mark Henry appearing at the end of the match and just destroying Orton completely, so I wasn't disappointed my the whole beatdown. Also it couldn't of gotten any better either, since Mark Henry sucks and has a foreseeable onslaught of moves. Ironically this just made tonight's SmackDown a 3.5-Star night!

WWE Raw 8/29
Overview:
Triple H, roars out in the arena to make his point swift. He announces the brands are not technically existing anymore, making Raw and Smackdown Supershows. Then he jumps to the whole issue with Nash and Punk, where Punk interrupts as soon as possible. Eventually this all leads to Nash's entrance which is the NWO Theme, as we learn he was signed to WWE. Then Punk and Nash argue about leading to Triple H making a match at Night of Champions for them to face each other breaking the meaning of Night of Champions. Endding the promo, Orton makes his entrance as we get a upcoming promo for Orton vs Dolph Ziggler.
Randy Orton and Dolph Ziggler, they tie it up and brawl about. The match goes great leading to several counters, and brawling outside the ring. Orton and Ziggler really get the match going, with Orton hitting free fall drop Neckbreaker, and Superplex. While Ziggler, got a Fameasser in and countered the Punt with a Superkick. The match ended with Orton hitting a DDT, Ziggler locking in the Sleeper followed by Orton spinning out into an amazing RKO. Along with that Jack Swagger, watching on.
Following the match, John Cena comes down to the ring and talks about what he'll do Alberto Del Rio. He eventually, lead Cena saying "If you want some come get some!" That leading to Mark Henry coming out to set up more "Supershow-ness" and Henry goes on about he'll face who ever wins the Cage match. After that statement Christian, interrupts while Cena goes to insult them leading to a brawl that makes Sheamus come to Cena's save. Ah what an amazing Team, the Red Ranger and Green Ranger!!! Hint, Hint: I'm buying their shirts soon! Henry and Christian bail from the ring, as John Lauriniatis is confronted by Triple H.
The next match on the card is CM Punk vs the Miz, before the match Miz goes on about Punk and his recent Pipebombs. This week, Punk believes he's a Green Ranger too, while he mocked Miz...lol! They tie it up, with Punk taking the lead. They brawl in the ring facing off with their styles, Miz takes down Punk. For the next minutes following Miz, dominates the match hitting a few of his signature moves. Eventually Punk reverses Miz and takes back the match. Follow Punk hitting a Savage Elbow Drop, and going for the GTS, R-Truth hits the ring leading to a DQ-Win. Miz and R-Truth beat down Punk as Nash comes down to the ring to hit a JackKnife Powerbomb.
Match number 3 is Sin Cara against Jack Swagger. As we all know Sin Cara is going to win cause he makes people job to him. Anyways during the match Jack, grounds Sin Cara and Vickie Guerrero comes down to ringside. That leads Dolph to also come down to the ring and help cost Jack his match while aruging with Vickie. Heck the rivalry over victory is boring and stupid the only good thing out of this is Ziggler either turns solo and becomes WWE Champion or turns face!
Our next match on the card features the new Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne in rematch with Otunga and McGillicuty. We find out Kingston and Bourne, team's name is Air Boom....I just want to say it but I don't want to offensive! Well the match sucks, cause Otunga and McGillicuty do nothing. The end result is Air Boom retaining the Championships. Following the match Otunga attacks Jerry "the King" Lawler, I guess Otunga wasn't happy with the insulting him or his wife.
The Divas' match of the night was Kelly Kelly against Nikki Bella or Brie, I don't know whose who. It's hard to tell them apart unless you see the tattoos which they love to hide. Kelly dominates one of them as the girls hit Twin Magic and gets the win over Kelly Kelly. While Beth Phoenix and Natalya trash Kelly Kelly backstage.
As the Main Event starts, Henry and Christian make their entrances first while a commerical break occurs. Sheamus and John Cena, make their entrances with the crowd exploding for them. Sheamus starts the match and overpowers Christian leading to Mark Henry tagging in. Henry and Christian dominate Sheamus for most of the match, leading to Cena getting tagged in. Cena locks a STF on Christian, while Henry breaks the hold as Sheamus and him slip the fight outside. Christian recovers and lands a Spears, Cena while trying to get the pinfall. Cena breaks out and sends Christian into the Brogue Kick from Sheamus then into the Additude Adjustment. The night ends with us hearing about Triple H facing CM Punk at Night of Champions while Cena and Sheamus stand in the ring together in victory.
Review:
Since the Brand Extension is pretty much dead for now this makes everything amazing. The rosters being combined together gives us better matches, and possible rivalries. The first Raw Supershow, had a good start with the promos and matches. The Orton/Ziggler match went fast pace and the moves made played out great. The RKO finish on Ziggler was a great impact finish. Now jumping straight to Miz/Punk, the match actually had a good start and a mildly great presentation for the continuation, however the end result sucked quite a bit. The DQ finished suck but was predicted, at least Nash coming down to add insult to injury was good. Following that match Raw sucked until the Main Event, the tag team was good, I think it just had the right crowd to support it. The end to the match was my favorite part a Brogue Kick right into the Additude Adjustment, that's just pure awesome-sauce! As a result of the end to the Brand Extension and great presentation of the matches I look forward to tomorrow's SuperSmackDown. So to rate this I say it's 4-Star Raw!

WWE SmackDown 8/26
Overview:
SmackDown opens with a re-cap of last week's Battle Royal to decide the No. 1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship. Leading to Mark Henry's victory and the stare down that follow, before transitioning right into SmackDown's intro. Still hating GREEN DAY! Anyways we get cut into discovering that the Main Event is Sheamus vs Mark Henry, then we get a special return of Bret "the Hitman" Hart! Hart starts off by saying COO Triple H made him the Special GM before announcing the Live Super SmackDown featuring Raw and Smackdown. Then we here the Main Event is Mark Henry vs Orton, for the World Championship while Christian interrupts him. Christian talks about blaming Edge for his lost, leading up to Christian asking for his rematch. Hart goes on about how Christian is becoming an embarassment, Why don't they just return to calling him a CLB?! This all ends with Bret Hart, making a different match for next week a SteelCage ReMatch! Mark Henry then shows up and argues about his Contendership. Then says he'll face the winner of next week's match as Sheamus cuts in. They brawl about leading into a promo for Orton vs DiBiase.
After the first break, we get Christian facing off against Daniel Bryan. Before the match begins we get a quick promo for Bryan, it shows off how badass he is. The match starts off with some good counters, and Bryan landing a suicide dive. Bryan locks in a Submission and trys rolling it into a pinfall. Christian kicks off and beings fighting back. After a short break, Christian has a headlock on Bryan leading to some counters. Eventually Bryan gets around Christian's offensive and manages to hit his flying dropkick. Bryan follows up with a great offensive uppercuts, kicks and knees. Christian follows up trying to hit a Spear and fails, minutes later Christian trys a KillSwitch and falls into the LaBell Lock. Christian breaks the hold by reaching the ropes, then finally lands a KillSwitch and gets the pinfall.
The next match we get is Wade Barrett against some jobber, following some WWE Vault moment which was a match between Rey Mysterio and Chris Jericho. Maybe that Vault clip is to foreshadow something for next week's SuperSmackDown?! Well instead of facing the jobber, Wade Barrett walks away as we jump straight to the Raw Rebound. The Rebound covers the CM Punk/John Cena match for No. 1 Contendership. As soon as the Raw Rebound ends we cut to Sin Cara facing off with Heath Slater. This match is gonna be amazingly easy to guess, while we find out at SuperSmackDown we'll see Sin Cara face Alberto Del Rio. Anyways, Slater loses to Sin Cara within like 7minutes.
Now we come to the only match I saw from this whole SmackDown while it airred, Randy Orton vs Ted DiBiase. Ironically while writing this thou I barely remember what freakin' happened! As Ted makes his entrance, Cody talks about crap and such on improving Ted's career and Cody being Intercontinental Champion. The match starts with Ted, getting an early advantage before Orton took over. The match flipped back and forther leading to a commerical break. When we got back from the break the match was leaning into its final minutes before Orton hit a RKO and got the pinfall. Following the match Cody Rhodes attacks Ted and bags him!
The Divas' match of the night was Kelly Kelly facing off with Tamina. This match actually was pretty good, Kelly Kelly brawled about with Tamina in the opening minutes. Ironically, it seems Kelly Kelly is now to be some Brawling Barbie?! Anyways she gets the win as we cut to Striker interviewing Jinder Mahal. Jinder, goes on about how Khali failed him last week in the Battle Royal and how Khali is to face Ezekiel Jackson tonight. Khali and Jackson, brawl about and each destroy each other in the 6 minutes or so. Jinder tries to interfere in the match and is struck by Khali by mistake, while Jackson locks Khali in the Touture Rack to win via submission. Jesus Christ, that submission made the crowd along with myself go OMG!
Tod Grisham gets a quick interview Orton on the Cage Match, and Orton goes into quick detail on he'll defeat Christian than Mark Henry. Leading right into promo for Mark Henry and his destructive ways, before finally getting to tonight's Main Event. Mark makes his entrance first followed by Sheamus. They brawl about for the opening minutes of the match and it was great brawling could've been better if it was No Holds Barred! They fight outside the ring and brawl about again leading to Sheamus this time winning via count-out. Following the match they brawl outside the ring and it's better than the whole match was in general it all ends with Mark Henry hitting the World Strongest Slam on Sheamus onto the steel steps.
Review:
Well this SmackDown was able to make over a 3-Star Rating with a 3.5 rating, even thou I missed it during its actual airring. I missed due to getting seriously sick during a car ride home today from NYC. Anyways from what I saw on Youtube originally made me think this SmackDown was shit and then actually waking up & rewatching some parts a few times I was like damn! The first match was great, that vault clip I saw was a great match from a year or so ago and didn't fit in, then Jackson making Khali tap and the Main Event made the whole show. That vault clip, followed by the Wade Barrett promo and Sin Cara match made me thou really hate this SmackDown. The vault clip just didn't need to be shown at all, even thou I love that match it was plain out stupid to air it. I think they only airred due to the fact Jericho, Christian, Edge and Bret Hart are all Canadian!
Anyways the actual matches that happened on SmackDown were good. Christian/Bryan went over good it could've been better but was good enough. Then Jackson/Khali was an amazing piece of brawling monsters, especially the match finish. Ironically putting Jackson/Khali back-to-back with Sheamus/Henry was a great idea, it really had the crowd going. My only disapproval of the Main Event was the count-out victory for Sheamus, hell the match should've been No Holds Barred and ended with World's Strongest Slam on the steps. I mean the end of the night was slightly a let down even thou that adrenaline got pumping, hell I wanted more! Anyways stay tuned for more Wrestling Reviews, and the SuperSmackDown next week!

This all ends with Bret Hart, making a different match for next week a SteelCage ReMatch! Mark Henry then shows up and argues about his Contendership. Then says he'll face the winner of next week's match as Sheamus cuts in. They brawl about leading into a promo for Orton vs DiBiase.
After the first break, we get Christian facing off against Daniel Bryan. Before the match begins we get a quick promo for Bryan, it shows off how badass he is. The match starts off with some good counters, and Bryan landing a suicide dive. Bryan locks in a Submission and trys rolling it into a pinfall. Christian kicks off and beings fighting back. After a short break, Christian has a headlock on Bryan leading to some counters. Eventually Bryan gets around Christian's offensive and manages to hit his flying dropkick. Bryan follows up with a great offensive uppercuts, kicks and knees. Christian follows up trying to hit a Spear and fails, minutes later Christian trys a KillSwitch and falls into the LaBell Lock. Christian breaks the hold by reaching the ropes, then finally lands a KillSwitch and gets the pinfall.
The next match we get is Wade Barrett against some jobber, following some WWE Vault moment which was a match between Rey Mysterio and Chris Jericho. Maybe that Vault clip is to foreshadow something for next week's SuperSmackDown?! Well instead of facing the jobber, Wade Barrett walks away as we jump straight to the Raw Rebound. The Rebound covers the CM Punk/John Cena match for No. 1 Contendership. As soon as the Raw Rebound ends we cut to Sin Cara facing off with Heath Slater. This match is gonna be amazingly easy to guess, while we find out at SuperSmackDown we'll see Sin Cara face Alberto Del Rio. Anyways, Slater loses to Sin Cara within like 7minutes.
Now we come to the only match I saw from this whole SmackDown while it airred, Randy Orton vs Ted DiBiase. Ironically while writing this thou I barely remember what freakin' happened! As Ted makes his entrance, Cody talks about crap and such on improving Ted's career and Cody being Intercontinental Champion. The match starts with Ted, getting an early advantage before Orton took over. The match flipped back and forther leading to a commerical break. When we got back from the break the match was leaning into its final minutes before Orton hit a RKO and got the pinfall. Following the match Cody Rhodes attacks Ted and bags him!
The Divas' match of the night was Kelly Kelly facing off with Tamina. This match actually was pretty good, Kelly Kelly brawled about with Tamina in the opening minutes. Ironically, it seems Kelly Kelly is now to be some Brawling Barbie?! Anyways she gets the win as we cut to Striker interviewing Jinder Mahal. Jinder, goes on about how Khali failed him last week in the Battle Royal and how Khali is to face Ezekiel Jackson tonight. Khali and Jackson, brawl about and each destroy each other in the 6 minutes or so. Jinder tries to interfere in the match and is struck by Khali by mistake, while Jackson locks Khali in the Touture Rack to win via submission. Jesus Christ, that submission made the crowd along with myself go OMG!
Tod Grisham gets a quick interview Orton on the Cage Match, and Orton goes into quick detail on he'll defeat Christian than Mark Henry. Leading right into promo for Mark Henry and his destructive ways, before finally getting to tonight's Main Event. Mark makes his entrance first followed by Sheamus. They brawl about for the opening minutes of the match and it was great brawling could've been better if it was No Holds Barred! They fight outside the ring and brawl about again leading to Sheamus this time winning via count-out. Following the match they brawl outside the ring and it's better than the whole match was in general it all ends with Mark Henry hitting the World Strongest Slam on Sheamus onto the steel steps.
Review:
Well this SmackDown was able to make over a 3-Star Rating with a 3.5 rating, even thou I missed it during its actual airring. I missed due to getting seriously sick during a car ride home today from NYC. Anyways from what I saw on Youtube originally made me think this SmackDown was shit and then actually waking up & rewatching some parts a few times I was like damn! The first match was great, that vault clip I saw was a great match from a year or so ago and didn't fit in, then Jackson making Khali tap and the Main Event made the whole show. That vault clip, followed by the Wade Barrett promo and Sin Cara match made me thou really hate this SmackDown. The vault clip just didn't need to be shown at all, even thou I love that match it was plain out stupid to air it. I think they only airred due to the fact Jericho, Christian, Edge and Bret Hart are all Canadian!
Anyways the actual matches that happened on SmackDown were good. Christian/Bryan went over good it could've been better but was good enough. Then Jackson/Khali was an amazing piece of brawling monsters, especially the match finish. Ironically putting Jackson/Khali back-to-back with Sheamus/Henry was a great idea, it really had the crowd going. My only disapproval of the Main Event was the count-out victory for Sheamus, hell the match should've been No Holds Barred and ended with World's Strongest Slam on the steps. I mean the end of the night was slightly a let down even thou that adrenaline got pumping, hell I wanted more! Anyways stay tuned for more Wrestling Reviews, and the SuperSmackDown next week!

WWE Raw 8/22
Overview:
Raw starts with the WWE Champion, Alberto Del Rio making his entrance into the arena. During his entrance we get, clips of last week's title match when Del Rio defeated Rey Mysterio and leading into Cena coming to the ring. It is at this time we learn, Rey has got an injury and will be out for sometime. Ironically Alberta, Canada isn't to welcoming to Del Rio, as Cena quickly interrupts him. Cena goes on about Del Rio and Destiny, then introduces himself to Del Rio. Cena proclaims, he'll defeat Alberto and take the title back. CM Punk, then makes his entrance, calls Cena a re-run wanting a rematch for the title. Then Punk goes on how he should be No. 1 Contender, and how Cena has balls to ask for a shot first. Del Rio, then rants how it's his time. Punk then goes on about how he's getting screwed. CM Punk, then goes on how someone wants Del Rio to be the Champ, maybe it's the writing that has been on the walls since Del Rio was at Mania. Anyways Cena and Punk argue about their rematches, until WWE COO Triple H appears and settles things. Triple H, says Del Rio got the first match on the card and how he calls the shots for title matches. Where he states Del Rio will face whoever wins the third match between Punk and Cena.
After a commerical break, we discover who Del Rio will face it's John Morrison. The match opens up with them taking shots at one another. During the first five minutes or so it all stays in the ring, until leading outside the ring when John Morrison attempts a moonsault and misses. Following that it goes to another commerical break, coming back to them battle back into the ring. At this time Morrison is hitting several moves and counters, before finally leading to Del Rio's victory. As Morrison went for a Starship Pain, Del Rio yanked Morrison from the turnbuckle and threw him into the ring post before locking in the Cross Armbreaker for the submission win. Then following the match Del Rio continued to assualt Morrison's arm, in the Cross Armbreaker before finally releasing the hold to proclaim his victory.
The next match on the card was a Divas' match, Eve Torres vs Nikki Bella. Kelly Kelly and Brie Bella stood at ringside. The Bellas, tried some Twin Magic to help Nikki overpower Eve. Nikki, doesn't do much before Eve hit's her few signatures. As Eve attempts a Moonsault and pin the Brie distracts here leading to a counter which fails. Eventually Eve, makes a comeback and hits a Spinning Neckbreaker & Pin Combo for the win. After the match Kelly Kelly attacks Brie hitting here K2. Backstage, Kevin Nash enters the arena and greats some of the stage hands, leading to a commerical for the Live: Super SmackDown next tuesday.
We come back, to Raw with Vickie Guerrero saying she's now managing Jack Swagger too as he'll be facing Alex Riley in a rematch. They tie it up, and Jack comes out on top using his college-wrestling background. A-Ry counters with an amazing SpineBuster, as Ziggler comes down to ring side to argue with Vickie. During the arguement Jack reverses A-Ry and makes a comeback. Eventually thou Jack focuses too much on them arguing at ring side leading to A-Ry getting a roll up for the win. Backstage, Triple H heads back to the arena to confront Nash.
Triple H, comes back to the ring as clips of Summerslam are shown. Triple H then asks Kevin Nash to come out and face him. Nash, agrees and makes his way to the ring without a theme, yet again. Nash say he thought he was doing Triple H a solid and said, he'd apolizige to Punk but now changed his mind after last weeks words. Triple H, says he fight Nash and call him out since he doesn't work in WWE. Then Triple H asks him to leave where they're interrupted by Punk. Who is still trying to figure out who sent the text message, my answer still is John Laurinaitis. Punk then says how his going to cross the line, like Nash does before saying he's gonna kick Nash's ass. Triple H tries to pull Punk aside, and Punk pushes him away then calls him out. Triple H, then say he'd still fight Punk before Nash slugged him forcing Triple H to get Nash out of the arena.
Backstage, Triple H and Nash continue to argue about what he did before Nash leaves. Back ring side, we get a Tag Team Championship match! Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne team up to face the Champions, Otunga and McGillicutty. I serious can't believe any of these stupid teams should hold the tag titles, they're too half-assed not like BEER MONEY!! Well Evan and McGillicutty start the match, Bourne & Kofi begin to quickly take the lead with their high-flying offensive. The Tag Champs make a comeback through dirty tatics as usual cause they amazingly suck. The Champs being to eventually use old school tag team moves to beatdown Kofi, it was like something from the 80s. Bourne gets tagged in and he starts bringing the heat leading to him hitting an Air Bourne to win his first Championship with Kofi as his tag-partner.
After the match Josh Matthews gets a short interview with the New Tag Team Champions. Kofi and Evan get a surprise victory party, before we pan to Triple H who hears that Nash got into a car accident. The person who tells him is John Laurinaitis, so something is fishy here. The next match starts off with nothing, Santino got attacked by both Miz and R-Truth. The two then go on about ranting of conspiracies in the WWE, and go on about how they'll take opportunities from anyone.
With the main event starting, Del Rio and John Laurinaitis sat at ring side to watch the match. Cena and Punk tie it up fast, leading to several counters. The match, has as very fast pace leading several amazing moves. The crowd, eats this match while Cena and Punk try going for their finishers. Punk tried, a GTS and gets locked in the STF before hitting another GTS but only getting a 2-Count. Cena gets back up to go for an Attitude Adjustment, Punk goes for several elbows before finally falling into the AA. The battle heads to the turnbuckle, and Punk goes for a crossbody reversed into a AA clutch before rolling out into a Roundhouse Kick. As Punk goes for the GTS, Nash appears and comes to ring before falling into Cena's AA losing the match to him. Following Cena's win, Del Rio jumps Cena and beats him down while Laurinaitis tries to pull Del Rio off Cena. Del Rio slides through and jumps Cena again as it goes off air.
Review:
The opening promo, was alright and pretty good. I enjoyed the back and forth remarks of Cena and Punk. I enjoyed their arguement over the Number 1 Contendership, because Punk likes to point out how Cena's always Number 1 Contender. That was the best point of the arguement. The promo could've played out better but this had to stay PG. Anyways onto the opening matches, they weren't impressive at all nothing stood out. The Morrison/Del Rio match could've been played out longer, I mean it could've been almost as good as the past Del Rio/Bryan matches. It could've been the second best match of the night actually it still was, but that was just cause everything else sucked amazingly.
Following the Del Rio/Morrison match, the Diva match was worse than the past few in recent weeks and the A-Ry match was just another joke. The Tag Team Championship match was completely out of the blue but was worth it I guess, since Bourne and Kofi are better work horses. The main event was good, and the ending was completely foreshadowing since Laurinaitis is our new ASS Clown. Cena/Punk III, was great fast pace and enjoyable for 20 to 25minute match, it wasn't as good as Match I or II but it cut it well enough being it be live tv. Since practically the opening match and main event made the card and the few promos with Punk were good enough to get a large pop it made this Raw a good 3.5 Star rating. I really look forward to the "re-signing" of Kevin Nash and this rivalry with CM Punk, along with Laurinaitis undermining Triple's H at every corner it seems.

Rolling Review: SH Figuarts Shadowmoon
A figuart, that I only needed to wait almost a year for. When I first started collecting SHFs, my first few were Black and RX! Those made me crave, and long for the making of this figure. Now that I finally have it, I'm amazingly in love with it. This was a worthy buy, but there was some few issues they've could've done to make this even better. One was to use a little bit of Die-Cast and chrome out the armor. But when dealing with Chrome it either is paint or plastic which tends to break over time. Anyways the joints and mold of the figure is great since it's the updated form, meaning they're either loose enough to not annoy people. Along with that his Hopper Blades on his forearms are bendy, very pilable; where has his leg Hoppers are much harder and solid. The shoulder gimmick, and his head horns are a bitch at most they're the real issue at hand. Well then take care spike the hair, and check out my current videos, upcoming reviews or V-logs, and a facebook Toku-fan page: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=115582611830956&v=info

After learning this Del Rio, reverses Bryan and continues assualting the arms. Bryan breaks away again and get Del Rio in a few minor signatures of his arsenal, leading to the suicide dive/ knee to the face. They fight back into the ring, leading to a super back-to-belly suplex, where Daniel countered into a falling crossbody.

They really seem to be putting on a good beating to AJ. Kelly Kelly eventually gets tagged in and gets the win, while Natalya and AJ battle outside.

Before, the 20-Man Battle Royal we get another re-cap of Summerslam Fan Acess. Then that's followed by Randy Orton making another entrance before joining commentary. The Battle Royal, slowly begins to start as most of the competitors are already in the ring. There I can already see, Sin Cara, Jinder Mahal, Khali, Zac Ryder, William Regal, Ted, Rhodes, and others before being joined my Wade Barret, Mark Henry and Sheamus. Henry makes quick eliminations to Trent Baretta and Yoshi Tatsu. Barrett throws Johny Curtis out next, followed by Sin Cara getting out Zac Ryder. Jackson, quickly gets Cody Rhodes out, before Khali gets ride of Jackson. Shortly after Khali faces down Mark Henry, before Henry removes Khali. Henry, leaves ring before Sheamus can eliminate him, leading to Sheamus Brogue Kicking Heath Slater out.
We come down to Usos', Tyson Kid, Sin Cara, Jinder Mahal, Wade Barrett, Justin Gabriel, Ted DiBiase, Sheamus, and Mark Henry. Sin Cara, eliminates Gabriel followed by Sheamus getting out both the Usos'. Mark Henry, comes back and wrecks the other remain guys. Eventually we get down to Henry, Barrett, Sheamus and Sin Cara. The others group attack Mark Henry, before they turn on each other. Sheamus kicks Barrett out, then gets thrown out by Henry. Sin Cara and Mark Henry battle it out for awhile before, Sin Cara is eliminated. Mark Henry is then delcared the Number 1 Contender while facing down Orton.
Review:
Okay well these week's SmackDown makes us think it's going to be a great freakin' Card for the night, but they don't! We only get one amazing match, and 2 other matches that could've been better. The best match on the card was the rematch from last week of Mr. Money of the Bank, Daniel Bryan vs Undisputed WWE Champion, Alberto Del Rio. That was the most impressive match, on the whole freakin' card. Del Rio and Bryan are having a great set of matches. They need to market Del Rio/Bryan at Night of Champions instead of Del Rio/Cena. Their series is a great marketing idea.
Other than that the Intercontinental Championship sucked, they need to amazingly step up the resurrection to that title. Along with that the Battle Royal, shouldn't of ended up with Mark Henry winning. I seriously, think Mark Henry shouldn't have won, and either Sheamus or Wade Barrett would of been better. If they choose to step up the matches they need guys that can work these matches. The Orton/Christian series was great could've ended alil better, just like Bryan/Del Rio have been in recent weeks. So this SmackDown, was like dead center at 3 Stars. Also stay tuned for the live SmackDown on the 30th!
SmackDown starts with a small clipshow of Summerslam and Randy Orton, winning the World Heavyweight Championship. Following the clipshow, Teddy Long welcomes Randy Orton as the new Champion, while he enters the arena. Orton, takes the mic from Teddy and starts on about Christian.

DiBiase then talks about Orton, before getting hit with the RKO. Teddy then says Cody is taking Ted's place in tonight's opening match against Ezekiel Jackson and it's a re-match for the Intercontinental Championship.
The Intercontinental Championship match, starts and Jackson overpowers Cody from the start. Cody eventually makes a good break, and begins to work on Jackson for a short period, before Jackson takes charge again. The match spills outside shortly as steps come into play, leading to Jackson getting his knee hurt and falling into a Cross Rhodes. Cody, gets the pin and retains the championship.
Zac Ryder, then comes to see Teddy Long. There Zac Ryder, tells Teddy long Alberto Del Rio is gonna be on Smackdown, along with that Zac Ryder says he'll win the Battle Royal. Aksana interrupts Zac Ryder, and then continues Teddy Long. Then following the promo, they show a Justin Gabriel promo leading into his match with Tyson Kidd.

There I can already see, Sin Cara, Jinder Mahal, Khali, Zac Ryder, William Regal, Ted, Rhodes, and others before being joined my Wade Barret, Mark Henry and Sheamus. Henry makes quick eliminations to Trent Baretta and Yoshi Tatsu. Barrett throws Johny Curtis out next, followed by Sin Cara getting out Zac Ryder. Jackson, quickly gets Cody Rhodes out, before Khali gets ride of Jackson. Shortly after Khali faces down Mark Henry, before Henry removes Khali. Henry, leaves ring before Sheamus can eliminate him, leading to Sheamus Brogue Kicking Heath Slater out.
We come down to Usos', Tyson Kid, Sin Cara, Jinder Mahal, Wade Barrett, Justin Gabriel, Ted DiBiase, Sheamus, and Mark Henry. Sin Cara, eliminates Gabriel followed by Sheamus getting out both the Usos'. Mark Henry, comes back and wrecks the other remain guys. Eventually we get down to Henry, Barrett, Sheamus and Sin Cara. The others group attack Mark Henry, before they turn on each other. Sheamus kicks Barrett out, then gets thrown out by Henry. Sin Cara and Mark Henry battle it out for awhile before, Sin Cara is eliminated. Mark Henry is then delcared the Number 1 Contender while facing down Orton.
Review:
Okay well these week's SmackDown makes us think it's going to be a great freakin' Card for the night, but they don't! We only get one amazing match, and 2 other matches that could've been better. The best match on the card was the rematch from last week of Mr. Money of the Bank, Daniel Bryan vs Undisputed WWE Champion, Alberto Del Rio. That was the most impressive match, on the whole freakin' card. Del Rio and Bryan are having a great set of matches. They need to market Del Rio/Bryan at Night of Champions instead of Del Rio/Cena. Their series is a great marketing idea.
Other than that the Intercontinental Championship sucked, they need to amazingly step up the resurrection to that title. Along with that the Battle Royal, shouldn't of ended up with Mark Henry winning. I seriously, think Mark Henry shouldn't have won, and either Sheamus or Wade Barrett would of been better. If they choose to step up the matches they need guys that can work these matches. The Orton/Christian series was great could've ended alil better, just like Bryan/Del Rio have been in recent weeks. So this SmackDown, was like dead center at 3 Stars. Also stay tuned for the live SmackDown on the 30th!
