CZW Tangled Web 6 8-10-13 Review

Before i start this mini review, let it be known that i dont give 2 shits about CZW. I feel the company is trying to be a knockoff of the old school ECW and its ultraviolence is too over the top. With that being said, i watched this show without bias so here we go:

JT Dunn vs David Starr: 3 out of 5

Winner: Starr

Joe Gacy, Alex Colon & Biff Busick vs Matt Tremont, Shane Strickland & Greg Excellent: 3 out of 5

Winners: Gacy, Colon & Busick

Naveah vs Shanna: 2 out of 5

Winner: Navaeh

Shane Hollister vs Caleb Konley: 4 out of 5

Winner: Konley

4Loco vs The Beaver Boys: 5 out 5

Winners: 4Loco

CZW Wired Championship

AR Fox (c) vs Andrew Everett: 5 out of 5

Winner: Fox

CZW Tag Team Championship

BLKOut (c) vs The Osirian Portal: 2 out of 5

Winners: Osirian Portal via DQ

CZW World Championship

MASADA (c) vs Drew Gulak: 3 out of 5

Winner: Gulak

Tangled Web 6 Match

Danny Havoc, Devon Moore & Lucky 13 vs Drew Blood, Ron Mathis & Rory Mondo: 1 out of 5

Winners: Havoc, Moore & Lucky 13

Clearly the best matches on this show were the Wired Championship Match, 4Loko/Beaver Boys and Shane Hollister/Caleb Konley. All the guys in this match are extremely talented and deserve a shot in a major company someday. AR Fox defintely belongs in ROH or TNA at some point, the kid can go and he reminds me a little bit of Kenny King. My favorite spot of the entire show was in the tag match where John Silver threw his opponents, his partner and even the referee literally across the ring, that's a good display of power and he's not even a big dude. Konley/Hollister was another bright spot in a company dedicated to the hardcore style, it was refreshing, it was WRESTLING.

Now onto what i didnt like....the women's match was just a clusterfuck and DJ Hyde is worthless, why he's even in any kind of company is staggering. The CZW Tag Team Championship match was a complete mess, there were some good high spots but you could tell the referee lost complete control. Onto the main event, which by far, i hated the most. I know CZW's gimmick is ultraviolence, but my god...why. It's pointless, it does nothing for wrestling and all it does is serve as "bloodlust" so to speak for the crowd and the viewing audience. I'm honestly surprised no one got seriously hurt during some of those spots, one including a dude being death valley drivered through a contraption with nails sticking through.

My overall review of this show is a 3 out of 5 and that's generous, considering the promos are nothing but the f bomb being dropped and the unneeded notion of constant violence.

ROH 8-31-13 Review

Matt Taven vs Brian Fury for the ROH Television Championship: 3 out of 5

- Loves the fact the Television Championship is actually defended on television, unlike some company that puts a TV belt on someone and then kills off the title because of "money".

- needs to buy a copy of the Book of Truth, seems like a good read.

Steen, Elgin, Ciampa and Bennett promo concerning the ROH Title Tournament. Bennett shaved his head.

ACH vs Karl Anderson: 4 out of 5

- Karl Anderson has one of the best entrances in all of wrestling, shooting a air machine gun into the audience. I like it, i like it a lot.

- Both ACH and Anderson are extremely talented, why neither one are in WWE or TNA staggers me.

- Side note, i still hate Kevin Kelly on commentary. Bring back Steve Corino.

- Anderson needs a new finisher, the Diamond Cutter gets old seeing everyone do it.

Adam Cole vs Mark Briscoe: 4 out of 5

- 2 words....Redneck KungFu.

- Adam Cole could be the next face of ROH, they havent had a true face of the company since Rollins left IMO.

- SUPERKICK.

- Redneck Kungfu.

- Adam Cole used Mark's brother's own finisher against him, Cole's heel turn is progressing quite nicely.

Overall show review: 4 out of 5, not a bad show from top to bottom.

NXT 8/28/13 Review

CJ Parker vs Tyler Breeze: 1 out of 5

- Breeze won the match by hitting Parker with his PINK fucking cellphone

Emma vs Summer Rae: 3 out of 5

- Emma looks like a complete stoner who blows bubbles...i dont get it and i hate her already

- Summer Rae doesnt have the Fandango theme, highly upset by this

- Emma stole Tajiri's rope submission dammit

Scott Dawson vs Enzo Amore: 3 out of 5

- Colin Cassidy looks like Edge if he was out of shape and had no charisma

Side note, Bo Dallas has no charisma whatsoever and doesnt deserve to be NXT champion whatsoever. How he got the belt, baffles my mind.

Adrian Neville vs Conor O'Brian: 3 out of 5

- The Ascension have the look and the promise, but as long as Rick Victor doesnt punch a cop like Kenneth Cameron did, then they hopefully should be called up soon.

- Honestly like they let Neville do all his high flying spots that he did in PWG.

Overall show review: 3 out of 5. Nothing too special, the Bo Dallas/Sami Zayn promo was well done and i enjoyed it for the most part.

The problems with TNA Creative....(8/30/13)

Before i start with this, i've decided that everyone in the creative team either has ADD or autism, and this isn't a knock on the people that have autism, i feel for those who have the disease and hope that one day they can overcome with medicines or whatever the case may be. That being said....

Who in the literal fuck booked tonight's episode of Impact? The first issue is the "pipebomb" dropped by AJ Styles. With his current contractual status up in the air, they decided to have him do a "shoot promo" that sounded awfully similiar to the promo CM Punk did in 2011. The only thing missing was Styles saying the company would be better off if Dixie Carter were dead. Seriously, we went from Crow Sting/Emo AJ to now CM Punk/not so emo AJ? Next week we're probably going to get the conclusion to the "Chaingang" AJ Styles and how Rock ruined his career for a year.

The Bound for Glory Series is a complete mindfuck and should be killed off. Like, it shouldn't even be considered for next year. Running out of time to get ELEVEN matches done for each guy over a 3 month span isnt that difficult, not to mention tonight was advertised as the FINAL CHANCE to get into the final four and then all of a sudden there's a gauntlet match with all 12 guys where the winner gets 20 points? So that shows me and the rest of the viewing audience that the constant advertisement of it being "Final Chance Thursday" or whatever the hashtag was, was for nothing. 

Continuity when it comes to stipulations revolving the World Championship. For those who remember, the main event at Slammiversary regarding Bully Ray and Sting had the stipulation that if Sting lost that match, he could never challenge for the World Title again. So tonight, what does Hulk Hogan book? A World Championship match between Bully Ray and Sting at No Surrender. So, Hulkster, what happened to the stip that Sting cant challenge for the belt anymore?

Pros & Cons: TNA

Before anyone gets all bent out of shape (im looking at you, ignorant TNA marks), this isnt an article bashing the company. This is an article looking at the pros and cons of TNA and what it brings to the table. I've been watching TNA since about 2004 and i've seen some of the worst and some of the best from them, and right now, it's in a down period. Face the facts, TNA isnt GOOD as a whole. Let's break down what's good and what could be drastically improved.

Pros:

The roster. Yeah, TNA has a nice core group of guys that can put on some amazing matches. Austin Aries, AJ Styles, Bobby Roode, the list can go on and on. 

The "big" PPVs. The past few years, Lockdown, Slammiversary and Bound for Glory have been their best events by far. The booking is solid, the matches are entertaining and it keeps you interested throughout the year.

The X-Division. TNA's version of a cruiserweight division, this division happens to put on some of the best matches on any show, whether it be Impact, or a PPV. When a crowd chants "THIS IS AWESOME", you know its a special match.

FINALLY going on the road. Yeah, this is what needed to happen from the get go. Staying in Orlando wasnt helping them at all, the crowds they were getting would have the same people in attendance week in and week out. Plus i highly doubt those crowds knew who half the wrestlers were anyway.

Cons:

TNA Creative. This is where it becomes a problem for TNA, NO ONE on the writing team knows what the fuck they're doing with the product. Yeah, they have wrestling minds that are writing the shows, but guess what, those writing minds clash with Hogan around and what not. It ruins angles, and becomes a giant clusterfuck. Speaking of angles....

Angles being rushed/Angles being drawn out. I love a good angle, when it's well thought out, it takes its time and it's allowed to grow. A good story is only good when it's allowed to breathe, and in some cases, it's allowed to breathe a little too much. TNA has a hard time of doing that. They rushed the Claire Lynch angle because people found out she was a model. So what? The people on television dont know that, so what harm can it do? Aces & Eights is an example of an angle that's gone on a little long, with no satisfying end result as of yet.

Having an angle be onesided in matches/promos. This is a huge problem. Again, going back to Aces & Eights, this stable has been run into the ground by TNA Creative. When's the last time the group did anything meaningful besides Bully Ray being World Champion? Exactly. Writing teams have to stop burying things to the point where it no longer becomes believeable on television. 

The TNA fanbase. This is the worst of them yet. These are the kids that sit on their computer and go "TNA IS #1! BETTER THAN WWE!!!! BETTER MATCHES AND EVERYTHING LOLOLOLOLOL." Outside of the matches and talent, what do you have besides stupidity and ignorance?

If you disagree with me, let me know in the comments below. Also, keep it civil, if you resort to using insults or trying to feel big about yourself in your reply, they'll be deleted.

Top 5 Reasons Why Big E. Langston Could Be The Best Big Guy In Like Forever LOL Applesauce!

Another day, another article. Did you know i've written over 3,000+ in my time for Bleacher Report? I have nothing else better to do with my time except talk about my #onelastchance girl (whom doesn't exist, i just wanna seem popular on Twitter) and tweet about my autobiography. But enough about yours truly, let's get this bullshit started shall we?

#5. He puts powder on his hands and claps around while he's on stage. Because when you have powder flying around, you know you mean business. You don't have to be talented, you just know you have IT. Baby powder people, baby powder.

#4. He has BIG in his name. That means he's more dangerous than Mark Henry, and the Big Show.

#3. He's big.

#2. He's Dolph Ziggler's "heavy".

#1. He's black.

Did you enjoy reading this article? Did you find it informative? If not, oh well, this is Bleacher Report. If you follow me on Twitter, you can read chapters 1-24 of my upcoming autobiography, if you're wondering why it's only 10 pages long, it includes the majority of stuff in my life that i can actually remember, because middle school and high school were rough times. Also, #onelastchance!!!!!!

Interview with Strike (Best in Class)

The following interview was conducted via Twitter DM over the weekend with Strike (Best in Class) and you can find his link at the bottom of the page. Here we go.

Mike here from ARC, tell us a little bit about yourself and where you're from

I'm 18 from Sydney, Australia. I moved here when I was 7 and I've always been a massive wwe fan.

What got you into wrestling, and how long have you been watching the sport? Your favorite wrestler and match?

definitely John Cena, his passion and desire.All my life and I think my Aussie friends got me into it.

What inspired you and your sister, to start training? How is the training coming along, and how long have you been training for?

Really good thanks. Well I wanted to make a difference as did my sister. She started to train and we have a home gym so she was constantly in there. She's been in a match which she lost and I have only trained for a week. No matches yet.

We all know you have to go through the indies, to get anywhere in wrestling. What company would peak your interest in being booked? whether it be Ring of Honor, CHIKARA, PWG or even somewhere overseas?

definitely Ring of Honor, I've heard massive things about it. I would love to make Australia proud.

What is the atmosphere like for wrestling where you live? Is it big as it would be in the States or Japan?

It's not big compared to America and Japan. It's like a garden pea to a Big Mac.

If you were signed to WWE or TNA tomorrow, who would you want to face and why? Who do you think your sister would want to face?

me definitely not Mark Henry, I'd be a definite inductee into the hall of pain. Probably someone like Fandango. I think Daphne would say Emma from NXT as she looks the same style.

If brought up to you, would you be opposed to doing an angle that you normally wouldn't? Such as a divorce angle or anything of the sort?

Yes I would be fine with it. Anything to make the business and fans happy.

Describe your wrestling ability in 3 words

Amateur, Learning and Traditional.

Final question, what are some long term goals for you in the world of wrestling? Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Well I don't really want to move away from Austrailia but if WWE came calling I'd accept.

If it wasnt as predictable, who would have the edge going in?

Why the IWC are the worst wrestling fans at times...

If you're living under a rock, IWC stands for Internet Wrestling Community, and if you post on a wrestling forum, talk about wrestling on Twitter, Facebook etc, go on a non wrestling forum and talk wrestling...that makes you, as well as everyone else who does this, part of the IWC. There's the good part of the IWC, that actually know what they talk about when they discuss wrestling, but the downside to that is, they called labeled smarks. Sorry for following the product for so long and understanding how everything works, i guess.

Then, there are the ones that whine, complain, bitch and moan about everything in the world of wrestling. You have the ones that claim to "not care" about a certain wrestler in a thread on a forum, but if you dont care...why in the holy mother of hell do you feel the need to tell it to us? You dont care about someone, yet you care enough to tell us? Then there are the ones that complain about legends. Legends paved the way for the current crop of stars we have today, in WWE, TNA and in every other company known to man. If it wasnt for those guys, wrestling probably woulda died off and everyone's interest would go into a real sport, like MMA  or boxing. 

My favorite form of the IWC are the ones that stalk their favorite wrestlers on Twitter and on Facebook, act like they do no wrong whatsoever and if someone comes out against them, they defend that wrestler to the death. That said wrestler doesnt owe you anything if you defend them on the Internet. I doubt they even care that you do. I know this one chick that is a diehard Melina and Orton fanboy. Defends Melina to the death, claims Melina is her best friend. Deep down, do you think Melina honestly cares that some random girl shes never met before considers her, to be her best friend? Doubtful.

Lastly, there are the pro-mainstream fanboys. Mainly the ones that drool over WWE or TNA programming. Everyone who loves Ring of Honor and other indy companies are smarks. They dont know wrestling. Apparently, if wrestling has "20 suplexes, flips and other shit", its not good. False finishes in Ring of Honor? Bad. Yet, over the past year most of the WWE Championship matches on PPV had a ton of false finishes. If a certain wrestler is good in the ring, he's overrated. Meanwhile a guy like John Cena is underrated because Creative "doesnt let him showcase his true potential." I love that moronic way of thinking.

If you're wondering why i rant in this, it's because over the years, my love of actually watching wrestling has dwindled. It's because there are overbearing fans that make it dreadful to even discuss wrestling, because they feel that what they say on the Internet is law, even if it's not even true. Especially the ones who cant admit when they're wrong about anything. Ever.
