WWE Monday Night Raw 8/1

OVERVIEW:
Raw opened up to a promo video reviewing the Money in the Bank, and then end result to Mysterio vs Cena for the WWE Championship on last week's Raw. Following that they promoted Punk and the Cult of Personality. Leading right into the intro of Raw and CM Punk's entrance.

The crowd was mixed to entrance, the god damn C-Nation ruined the whole moment. Following the entrance, they cut a promo with Punk shouting "The Champ is Here!" Punk then revealed why he chose to stay, saying he's here to make it fun again and he's the Best in the World. Then Triple H soon came out, the crowd exploded! Triple H, then followed with why Punk was resigned along with JR, cause it was good for business. "Smug, Overrated, Attention Seeking Guy that puts too much stock in his own hype!" Triple H's view on CM Punk, and the crowd then switched for Punk. It's like this crowd was bipolar or something, they couldn't make up their minds. Hell then a battle of Egos ensued between Triple H and Punk. Until the "Pipe Bomb" went off.

Up next was some hype for a tag team match, Rey Mysterio & John Morrison vs the Miz & R-Truth and the Diva's Number 1 Contender Battle Royal. Leading to the first commerical break, of the night. We cut back to most of the Divas in the ring and Kelly Kelly joining commentary with JR, King and Cole. The match went fast as usual, and the new Contender for Kelly's Championship was the Glamazon, Beth Phoenix. Who then proceed to beat down Kelly following her victory. Leading to more hype for the tag team match, with a promo with Miz and R-Truth.

After the 2nd or 3rd commerical break we come back to a short promo with Josh Matthews and John Cena. Leading in to the tag match mentioned earlier, that lead into yet another commerical break. So far we had alot of hype, promos and commericals and no wrestling! Finally the match, began with Miz and Morrison, then a tag leading to another commerical break! This match began to suck and it probably was because R-Truth was in it or nothing fancy was really happening. The crowd was exploding thou mostly for Morrison, sadly thou his team lost and Miz & R-Truth won.

Following the Tag Match, Josh interviews Triple H about the earlier promo with Punk and the WWE Championship issue. Next we got a promo for Sheamus vs Mark Henry on Smackdown this week, and leading to US Champion Dolph Ziggler & Vikki Guerrero coming down to the ring. While on the name tag it promoted the release of his new edition of "I Am Perfection" on Itunes! Dolph then cut a promo about being one of the best right now on the roster, and pretty much giving an open challenge to which then Alex Riley came out to interrupt him. Riley then starts to tell Ziggler to kick Vikki aside and go his own way, the result being Dolph leaving the ring. As we cut to promotions for the WWE Championship Controversy and another Tag Team Match, New Nexus vs Santino & Zac Ryder!

This tag team match was better for the fact Long Island Iced-Z, Zac Ryder was in it. The crowd really wants him, the were exploding when he got tagged in. Then Michael Cole trashed Youtube, youtubers and Broskis everywhere! When will WWE fire Cole, he's the biggest tool in the freaking world. He's like some other tool I know who said a certain group of youtubers' had low quality videos. Just go check out Projektrdm's blog to find out who I mean. Anyways Ryder and Santino lost and we went into another boring set of commericals.

We come back to then a recap of the encounter between Triple H and CM Punk from about an hour prior. Then cutting to Punk in an interview with Josh Matthews, leading to a match with Alberto Del Rio against Evan Bourne. Leading to a fast pase match and Evan Bourne tapping out.

Finally we get to the end of the show and the commentary reveals a poll on who should be the real WWE Champion and it showed Cena 54% to Punk 46%. Leading to Triple H coming out to reveal what he's going to about the controversy, and then John Laurinaitis came out say John Cena should be striped of the title. John Cena then came out to tell off Laurinatis, creating more entertainment between the arugement. Laurinaitis left shortly when Cena said he'd punch him in the face. Triple H then said Punk was resigned when he came with contract signed and said my favorite quote "Now Hit My Music!" following into Punk also interrupting Triple H and John Cena. Then Triple H made the edict Cena vs Punk at Summerslam to see who will be the Undisputed WWE Champion, while taking his leave. Following with a face-off between our two Champion, with their music playing back and forth in a war of themes.

Review:
My review on this is that this was like that one TNA Impact where no wrestling happened, but at least had alot more better promos. The matches didn't really impress me, along with the fact being John Morrison and Zac Ryder were the only reasons those matches had large reactions until they lost. The opening promo was pretty good, have the battle of Egos. Especially when Punk tried calling out Triple H, lead to the whole Pipe Bomb jokes. Then the final edict to settle this issue was pretty good when Punk and Cena had that stand-off with the Theme War.

Other things to note were the Michael Cole's remarks toward Youtube. I know it's all fake but being a Youtuber and have to be told your videos are shit within about 2 weeks you get tired of hearing it. I seriously grown tired of Cole's bitching gimmick it's so bad he needs to be taken off air. Along with that I'm loving the whole spamming of Downstait themes like "I Came to Play", "Say it to My Face", and "I am Perfection(V2)"! But now this being the third Raw since Triple H's take over and having some bad or okay matches really made this Raw a 2.5 out of 5 Stars. That's all for now, but check in for more Raw Overviews/Reviews and other shows.

Blast from My Past: SHF Rising Ultimate Kuuga Review

This was part one of another early review I did, also yet again I shot this one in school. The camera-man for this review was my teacher and friend Mr. G. He even thought to post the pic of Kuuga in the background and I must say that's a great idea he had. At some points during the review you'll hear some students shouting in the halls. I don't know why but bitches be all crazy and crap! Anyways I hope you guys come to enjoy another "Blast from My Past!"

Juan vs Amiami

Today was another day of Amiami's amazing pre-orders that piss people off. Today we had an amazing selection of several Figuarts, Ultra-Acts, SIC's and the New MonsterArts. Usually several others and I are up to witness this and get what we want, but for once it was only Dark Juan! And he went to war with Amiami, unfortunately he missed the Den-O Climax for all of our orders. At least I got my Godzilla MonsterArts, the only sad thing is it's still in stock. Now I got to wait around for Climax to restock along with the rest, luckily Dark Juan managed to get us some of our orders logged in. As for now all you can do is look in fear at some screenshots I took of the pre-order page at Amiami.com!

The Mirror, the Bot and the Agul

Recently some new pictures surfaced on the Ultra-Acts of Mirror Knight, JeanBot, and Ultraman Agul. Out of the three of these newer figures to the Ultra-Act line I wish to eventually buy Ultraman Agul. So far I know some of the accessory this figures come with, but I'm not entirerly sure if all effect parts will come with figures at this time. Agul comes from Ultraman Gaia, with his release being sometime November along with that he comes with his blade attack and finisher effect. Mirror Knight who is also to be released in November comes with effects I don't know anything about since I haven't seen anything of Zero, the same goes for Jean-Bot who is released at the end of this year in December. Anyways all I know is I'm getting Ultraman Gaia and that's all for now other than Ultraman Gaia that's already pre-oredered at Amiami.com







Tommy? Tommy? TOMMY?!

The other day some friends and I were talking about WTF Moments in Transformers G1 and we came to an agreement that this clip of the sixth intro is one of those moments. When I first saw this clip awhile back, I was completely unsure if I was high or drunk off my ass. Heck I was probably both! Who knows? But when this came up in the matter at hands it was only I and DeluxeRobots to be the only ones in the call to have ever seen the footage. So linked the others and we had a huge laugh at this clip. Deluxe even said "If you see a Live-Action Prime from the 80s you sir are drunk!" That really burst the chat wide open, making jokes like this clip should've been spoofed for promos in the movie. Heck I even went on saying that probably Peter Cullen forgot doing this....lol! But hey you decide how WTF this moment real is!

Thanks Youtube and RetroJunk, for bringing back these WTF Moments!

The Punk of Personality


On July 17 at WWE Money in the Bank, CM Punk defeated John Cena for the WWE Championship. That same night he walked away from the WWE and took the Championship with him. The following night on Monday Night Raw, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon stripped Punk of the championship and arranged an 8-man single elimination tournament to crown a new champion. The results would be Rey Mysterio and the Miz in finals which was then set to take place the following Raw, as Mr. McMahon was forced to resign as chairman with his son-in-law, Triple H taking over.

A week later on this most recent Monday Night Raw of July 25th, Rey Mysterio successfully defeat the Miz in the tournament finals to become WWE Champion. Eventually later on that night the new WWE COO Triple H would go on to make another championship match with Rey defending the title against John Cena who rightfully had a re-match cause that became nullified when Punk left the WWE. The match was actually a great match to remember going a full 20-mins, and had some memorable moments like when Rey locked Cena in his own STF, or the several finisher reversals each man made. The end result thou was John Cena defeating Rey Mysterio to become a 9-time WWE Champion.


But immediately following Cena's title win, Punk returned to WWE TV and held his belt up in defiance of Cena's win. Also debuting his new enterance theme back from his ROH days, "The Cult of Personality." The following night at the SmackDown! tapings, WWE COO Triple H announced that both men had legitimate claims to the title and the situation would be rectified the following Monday on RAW.

Blast From My Past: SHF Kamen Rider Black Review

Hey anyone remember this review, it's my very first one and it was SH Figuarts Kamen Rider Black! Anyways I shot this back in early 2010, sometime in March in my school's weight room. This video as you can see isn't my best, but it's still my first and everyone has to start somewhere. Just I started at school, and that's an odd place to review I must say.
