PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - WWE HELL IN A CELL 2015

 
Img: www.sportsnewsupdated.com

Took place on October 25, 2015, at Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. It was the seventh event under the Hell in a Cell chronology. 
What the conclusion between Undertaker and Lesnar?
Who will answer for Cena next Open Challenge?
Can Reigns defeat the The Face of Fear?
What the decision for Kane?
All will be answered in this PPV.

United States Champion Open Challenge Match

It shocked to see Alberto Del Rio return to answer the challenge, especially he's back with Zeb Colter beside him. Just average match, not both wrestler best performance. It little surprised to see Cena lost in clean way with just kick in the face from Del Rio. Del Rio became the new champion and celebrated with Colter. Welcome back Del Rio !!

Winner: Alberto Del Rio [New Champion]

Bray Wyatt VS Roman Reigns

Their first Hell in a Cell match. Good match to be honest, maybe will be the best match of the PPV. Wyatt always gave his best for PPV match, although it's rare to see him win in PPV and Reigns once again improve his match quality just like he did on 2 previous PPV.  Always love when Wyatt do his theatrical mind games in the match, sit in the chair and hit Reigns with kendo stick, it's a great view. After this story is done maybe Reigns will be back to WWE title storyline, as preferred by Vince like and for Wyatt please give him to a title shot, as the only superstar from his generation that had match with Undertaker he deserve more.

Winner: Roman Reigns

The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) (c) VS The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley) [WWE Tag Team Championship]

The hunt for Dudley tenth belt is continued. The New Day came to the ring without their trombone player, Xavier Woods, who being hospitalize after Bubba Powerbomb through the table. The match it self just like common tag team match with the heel team dominated one member of the face team but there's no hot tag here. Two noticeable from this match is first, the Dudley botch when they went to double team, for veteran team that was not acceptable. Second when Kofi threw the trombone to Bubba and did a Eddie mind game (Kudos to Eddie) with the referee. Ending was little weak for their quality and DON'T YOU DARE TO SOUR!! CLAP YOU HANDS FOR THE CHAMPION...AND FEEL THE POWER CAUSE NEW DAY IS STILL THE CHAMP.

Winner: The New Day

Nikki Bella VS Charlotte (c) [WWE Divas Championship]

There's improvement in this division since the NXT roster came. It was solid match. It shown that Nikki can do more if she had a good opponent and for Charlotte, she is a great athlete that have great agility but maybe it will be better if she grow her own persona and not using her father, or maybe it the creative want, to use Flair aura in WWE again, I don't know. Looking forward to see other divas to make a good match like this.

Winner: Charlotte

Seth Rollins (c) VS Kane [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]

The feud begin after Rollins questioned Kane capability as Director of Operational, it made Demon Kane return to the ring. Stephanie made the match and if the Demon Kane lose Corporal Kane will be fire from the position. Kane came to the ring with his vintage entrance, with fire, he looked in good shape. The match begin slow, not the best match of Rollins. Not because Rollins bad, but due the limit move of Kane made this match less surprise. Kane got everything he had but it just not enough to win the title and he looked tired after the match the referee keep looking for him when he did or got a big move, Rollins win after Pedigree.

Winner: Seth Rollins

Ryback VS Kevin Owens (c) [WWE Intercontinental Championship]

Rematch from the previous PPV and like the before it's not that good. Owens couldn't explore all his arsenal like he did to Cena before. Ryback just like one trick pony, no big move to execute. Just filler match before the main event.

Winner: Kevin Owens

Brock Lesnar (with Paul Heyman) VS The Undertaker 

Lesnar played in Demon Playground, Hell In The Cell, against the demon himself. Blood fest match, even when the pace slow consider condition of Taker. Both superstars gave audience the worth of their ticket price. Introduced of chair and steel step was a good way to deliver the match and only 5 or 6 Suplex that Lesnar executed, still long way to Suplex city. Two F5 still didn't enough to bring The Deadman down, Chokeslam and Tombstone to exposed ring couldn't make The Conqueror give up. Taker fall after the third F5 to exposed ring. After the match Taker looked too tired to stand, the audience appreciated his performance, "Thank you Taker!" is echoed in the arena. Bray music played when Taker did his usual pose, Bray came with his entire family. Bray family surrounding the ring, beat Taker down and bring him to the back to end the show.

Winner: Brock Lesnar

Two match in the cell and that two match that steal the show. The most surprise was Del Rio return to WWE despite the circumstances between him and WWE when he left the company. Taker ending possibly will bring another feud with Bray in Survivor Series, Undertaker 25 years at WWE. Overall just decent PPV, the cell again help the show.

7/10, Decent....

PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - WWE MONEY IN THE BANK 2015

 

Took place on June 14, 2015 at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio. It was the sixth event under the Money in the Bank name. The 7th PPV of WWE this year, can it be a good show?? Let's we find it next.

Neville vs Kofi Kingston vs Randy Orton vs Kane vs Sheamus vs Dolph Ziggler (with Lana) vs Roman Reigns [Money in the Bank ladder match]

Not the best MITB match I haven't see. Some of notable moment that happened in the match are Orton got little air time, yeah he RKO here and there but that he only got in the entire match. Kofi and Neville found them self got more involved in the match, even Neville became the last obstacle for the winner. Ziggler did some flashy move but just not enough to heated the match. Reigns about to won the match after his some good move, Powerbomb, flying body to outside, Superman Punch, and Spear, but Wyatt intervention block his won. Kane didn't give extra dimension in the match, he just take little part this time. Sheamus became the winner which make me think what creative heading with his as a briefcase keeper, although he had a decent dominated performance in the night. Overall average match for MITB match this year.

Winner: Sheamus

Nikki Bella (c) vs Paige [WWE Divas Championship]

Decent match but we need other divas to involve with the match.

Winner: Nikki Bella

Big Show vs Ryback (c) [WWE Intercontinental Championship]

Ryback start the match strong. Outside the ring Ryback got a little action with The Miz. Big Show got a counter and Choke Slam Ryback but still can't defeat him. Big Show finally landed WMD to Ryback that made him fell outside the ring. Show tried to pin his opponent but The Miz jumped inside the ring and attacked both wrestler which lead the match end with DQ. This just opening for other feud between the three.

Winner: Big Show [DQ]

Kevin Owens vs John Cena

Best match of the night, so far. Even better than their previous match. Cena, again, came up with new moves Electric Chair Drop and Canadian Destroyer or something like that. It's also good to see Cena frustrated being failed to take down Owens into three count. Owens didn't do much initiative in this match, this was match that Cena Orchestrated. The match shown the reason that Cena is a big superstar in this business and also why Owens is the man who will be equal to Cena. Cena need three AA to bring Owens down. After the match Owens attacked Cena whose shown him a respect with Powerbomb to side ring. Still far from end with them.

Winner: John Cena

The New Day (Big E and Xavier Woods) (c) vs The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) [WWE Tag Team Championship]

A real chance for PTP to become a Tag Team Champion for the first time. New Day came out and did a promo about how rocks they are, Big E mic skill is kinda improving. New Day are dominated most of the match with isolated Young from O'Neil. O'Neil finally got his time and went rampage to clear the ring, he delivered a Spinebuster to Woods and won the match.

Winner: The Prime Time Players [New Champion]

Dean Ambrose vs Seth Rollins (c) [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]

Neck-to-neck with Cena-Owens as the best of the night. The match started slowly and getting heated when the ladder was introduced. Rollins delivered good performance and as he state, he could did this alone without any help. Ambrose proofed everyone he deserve to stay in the main event, he gave his everything and worked to his bone. There's none flashy or new moves tonight, they're just brawled and used everything available to the victory. The ending was sort of awkward, with both wrestlers hanged on the belt and down together. Rollins who keep the belt came as the winner.

Winner: Seth Rollins

I just got a chance to write this up, for me just average PPV. The main selling point, the traditional Money in The Bank match was a disappointment and they place it as an opening match made it looked like less important regarding the PPV name. Other joke of the night was Intercontinental Championship, I didn't know where's the creative direction when they bringing back Big Show to title shoot, he came out from end of 80's until today so for me his time is over, there's many young wrestle deserve that title shoot more than him. The best, of course Cena-Owens and the main event, the second below the first because the ending.

So, it's 6.5 from 10 to me.

Comment welcome....

PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - WWE ELIMINATION CHAMBER 2015


Took place on May 31, 2015, at the American Bank Center in Corpus Christi, Texas. The sixth annual Elimination Chamber event, it comeback this year after they didn't do it last year. The traditional match is come again with two match held on the chamber and for the main event, The Lunatic Fringe challenge The Future of WWE for WWE Belt.

The Prime Time Players VS Los Matadores (with El Torito) VS Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (with Natalya) VS The New Day (c)VS The Ascension VS The Lucha Dragons [WWE Tag Team Championship]

First time they did a tag team match at the chamber and it turn to be sweet decision. Lucha Dragons, especially Kalisto got a good spot here when he jump from the top of chamber. The Ascension maybe will get push again based their performances here, they eliminated two team Los Matadores and The Lucha Dragons. Cesaro again proofed that he deserve better than tag team champions. But the biggest spotlight the night is fall for PTP they finally got push that they need, even though I see Titus seems little bit confused during the match. New Day (Rocks!) retain the title after beaten the last team, PTP, with Kofi's Trouble in Paradise.

Elimination Order:
1. Los Matadores by The Ascension
2. The Lucha Dragons by The Ascension
3. The Ascension by The Prime Time Players
4. Tyson Kidd and Cesaro by The Prime Time Players
5. The Prime Time Players by The New Day

Winner: The New Day

Nikki Bella (c) VS Naomi VS Paige [WWE Divas Championship]

Her, her and her again. Waiting The Boss move to main roster.

Winner: Nikki Bella

Kevin Owens VS John Cena 

High quality match. Both superstar gave their best, especially Owens. He shown what he can do to the fans, the fans who didn't know him before and shown why WWE bring him here. His agility for a big man is that great, his moonsault and senton bomb described it. I thought he will use packed piledriver when he got the set up but he modified to a slam. Cena played a jobber role for the WWE debutant, WWE really give Owens high regard. Cena itself did a good job, new move like tornado DDT and springboard stunner will enrich his match for the future. First win in the first match, you deserved it Owens.

Winner: Kevin Owens

 Bo Dallas VS Neville

Weak feud for this match. The creative just want to (again) introduce Neville to the fans. The crowd also dead in this match. For match between former NXT champion is so-so match. WWE look likes will give a big plan for Neville but for Bo, they still doesn't have a clue.

Winner: Neville

King Barrett VS Dolph Ziggler VS R-Truth VS Mark Henry VS Ryback VS Sheamus [WWE Intercontinental Championship]

Elimination match for a vacant Intercontinental Championship. Henry here substituted Rusev that injured in Smack Down. Barrett and Ziggler start the match, decent match from the two. The pod random light only came 3 times cause there's incident when Barrett tackle Ziggler to Henry's pod that made his pod broke and Henry is free. Ziggler got thrown to the pod second times by Sheamus. Ziggler like usual got a bullied, Barrett just last 1/3 times of the match, Henry and R-Truth just filling the list. I don't like Ryback and after this match still don't like it, but it decent match when he and Sheamus became last man standing in the chamber. Ryback got the win after Shell Shock to Sheamus. After the match, Daniel Bryan came to the ring to deliver the belt himself.

Elimination Order:
1. King Barrett by R-Truth
2. R-Truth by Ryback
3. Mark Henry by Sheamus
4. Dolph Ziggler by Sheamus
5. Sheamus by Ryback

Winner: Ryback [New Champion] 

Dean Ambrose VS Seth Rollins (c) (with Jamie Noble, Joey Mercury and Kane) [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]

Good match, they did what was expected by the fans. Rollins shown that he strong enough without help of his security, still don't know why WWE booking Rollins with J&J. Ambrose improved as a single player but what the hell with his sling to rope clothesline, it's too often to use, if he doesn't fix it the audience will get bored. Both superstar perform many good move some move also new move. Good chemistry between two man made the match very fluid, enjoy to watch. There's incident at end of match which Rollins pulled the referee when Ambrose jumping from corner, made the referee fall out. Ambrose took the advantage and did Dirty Deeds on Rollins, take the cover. Other official came to the ring and count to three. Ambrose winning the match. The first referee woke and made another decision, after discussing between the official they made it a win by DQ for Ambrose. It means Rollins didn't lose his championship. After the announcement the Authority attacked Ambrose, Reigns music played and he saved his buddy. Ambrose and Reigns left the arena with WWE belt in the hand.

Winner: Ambrose

Decent PPV, not that good. Cena-Owens saved the show. The first chamber match is good match and because they place in the opening match it heated the arena. Second chamber was a disappointment, many big name that involved didn't enough to lift the match. This PPV also a few PPV that the Spanish commentary table still at one piece at the end of the show. The kick off match was Stardust defeated Zack Ryder. Other notable thing is the crowd is so silent, it went silent in most of the match including in main event, in Neville match it became a dead crowd didn't hear anything during the match.

Nothing special, 6 out of 10

PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - WWE PAYBACK 2015



Took place on May 17, 2015, at the Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, Maryland. It was the third event under the Payback name. Just 21 days after Extreme Rules the WWE PPV is on air again.

Sheamus VS Dolph Ziggler

Rematch from Extreme Rules last April. Ziggler tried to get revenge as Sheamus did in that event and he got it. Sheamus kiss Ziggler arse during the match. The match itself was good for opening with a lot pace from both Wrestlers. Stand point for this match of course nasty blood on Ziggler, when he headbutt Seamus. Seem legit to me. Sheamus won after hit Brogue Kick to bleeding Ziggler.

Winner: Sheamus

The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) (c) (with Xavier Woods) defeated Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (with Natalya) [WWE Tag Team Championship]

It's 2-out-of-3 falls tag team match, which mean to win the team must won minimum 2 times. This match became the best match for this feud so far. For me, Kidd is the star he really made the great match with his ability to move from one side to another, his agility and when he handled New Days alone it just great. Kidd-Cesaro won the first count via their double team moves and then New Days won after Kidd was pinned by Kofi. so it draw in 1-1. There's nasty Spear from Big E to Cesaro during the match which turn to be "Holysh*t" chant from the crowd. The final count was achieved by New Days with Bella's Twin Magic, yeah after Woods pinned Cesaro disguise as Kofi.

Winner: The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston)

Bray Wyatt VS Ryback

The weakest feud of Wyatt, after his lost to Undertaker it seems the the creative team lost direction for his push. The battle between former Nexus member. The match itself is not that bad, Wyatt is the one that made it right. He got more moves variation DDT to the side ring, Senton to the outside just made it acceptable in PPV match. One highlight from Ryback is the Big Guy can fly when he jump to Splash Wyatt from a top rope. Wyatt won the match after hit Sister Abigail to Ryback after he crashed to expose turnbuckle first.

Winner: Bray Wyatt

Rusev (with Lana) VS John Cena (c) [WWE United States Championship]

The USA belt is go for I Quit match. Despite the repeat match between two man, this match was surprisingly good. It no disqualification rules so, they use everything available to make his opponent say "I Quit." Rusev dominated first half of the match with introduce steel step and Cena used more tools to break Rusev from table, monitor, laptop and the best of the match throw AA to pyro system in ram. Nearing the end Rusev expose the turnbuckle and release the rope from the post, he sneaking to attack Cena but was countered to STF with rope and Rusev Quit.

Winner: John Cena

Naomi and Tamina VS The Bella Twins (Brie Bella and Nikki Bella)

Wow! finally the twins is lost, clean lost.

Winner: Naomi and Tamina

King Barrett VS Neville 

Battle of England. Just another match to fill the card but is good to see that Neville got his first PPV live match, he did a dark match before. Nice move from WWE to introduce him. The match itself was fast match with Neville show his agility and Barrett with his power, at the middle of match Barrett refused to continue the match and made Neville won by count out. While Neville celebrated, Barrett storming to the ring and hit Neville. Neville countered and hit Red Arrow to finish the show.

Winner: Neville


Randy Orton VS Dean Ambrose VS Roman Reigns VS Seth Rollins (c) (with Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury) [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]

Three former Shield members and the Viper. It goes for brawl from the start, because there's no DQ rules J&J security could jump in to assist Rollins. Orton got the least time from other competitor, and the trio got the spotlight alternately. Biggest pop up is echoed when there was little reunion in Shield to Triple Powerbomb Orton in announce table, and the second big is when Ambrose and Reigns Powerbomb Kane on top of Rollins, also in announce table. Orton finaly got his chance when he RKO all Rollins aids but was stopped by Rollins and got Pedigree from him. Rollins cover him and retain the title.

Winner: Seth Rollins

Overall, it was good show from WWE. At least three match steal the heat, Tag team, USA belt and the main event. If they could fix the storyline between mid card, I don't see they will be catch by other promotion. The dark match before the show was R-Truth defeated Stardust and The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor) defeated "The Mega Powers" (Curtis Axel and Macho Mandow). I think Sandow will get push after separate from Miz but he's still clown for creative, poor lad.

Good job from WWE, 7.5/10

HOLY SH*T MOMENT OF THE NIGHT

PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - WWE EXTREME RULEZ 2015


The traditional PPV is back this year, we will see how extreme this year the show. Took place on April 26, 2015 at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois. Let's start the EXTREME RULEZ.

Dean Ambrose VS Luke Harper
This match is Chicago Street Fight, which means the fight has no disqualification rules but can only be pin inside the ring. Sound extreme for first match huh. Ambrose is the first to enter the ring and he jump to Harper when Harper walk to ring. Ambrose then introduce the weapons, chair and kendo stick to the match. He attacked Harper with that kendo stick, sitting in the chair and teased to suplex Harper to chair but Harper reversed it and suplex Ambrose instead. Harper turned the domination. Ambrose got the pin after he did several counter started with body slam to the chair, but Harper could broke it. The fight continued at the back stage with various object involve. Harper jumped to the car followed by Ambrose and the car left the arena.....(to be continue)

Dolph Ziggler VS Sheamus
Stipulation for this match is Kiss Me Arse match, with the loser must kiss winner arse (why not just using ass? because that not PG :D). The feud start after Sheamus comeback and mess with Intercontinental Championship in RAW. Sheamus started with disrespect Ziggler dan Ziggler answered with furious punch. The brawl continued outside the ring with Sheamus got DDT by Ziggler. Sheamus quickly took the lead when the match back in the ring, he did Powerbomb but couldn't bring Ziggler down. Ziggler gave a fight back but could flatten by Sheamus hammer. Sheamus took Ziggler with Cloverleaf but Ziggler counter it and hit a Super Kick, he got the pin but only got two count this time. Sheamus got his momentum again and tried to bring down Ziggler. He did big moves to tear his opponent, but Ziggler could steal a pin with Small Package and got his three count. As match end the loser must kiss winner arse, but Sheamus refused it and tried to left the ring, the referee stopped him. Ziggler teased him to kiss his arse, Sheamus still refused it. Sheamus Lowbow Ziggler when he kneel behind him, did a Brouge Kick and forced Ziggler to kiss his arse.

Winner: Dolph Ziggler

The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) (with Xavier Woods) VS Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (c) (with Natalya) [WWE Tag Team Championship]

The New Day now is heel stable, i don't when or why they change it maybe because the audience doesn't like them :D. The match start between Kofi and Kidd, Both superstar used their speed to overcome their opponent, Kofi was troubled and bring Big E to the ring. Kidd also tag to Cesaro to equal the power, and he answer the expectation with slam Big E. New Day got his chance when Kidd enter the ring, both member switch turn to beat him. The defending champion got opportunity when Kidd avoid Big E Body Splash and also made him jumped outside. Tag made to Cesaro and Kofi, and again Cesaro overpower his opponent, Cesaro made a pin but Kofi could broke it. Kidd- Cesaro double team him but still could bring him down. Kofi then made sneak tag and Kidd was brought by Big E. New Day made a double move, Midnight Hour, but Cesaro Broke the pin. Kidd made Sharpshooter but Big E slam Kidd. Cesaro threw Big E and with Kidd made a double team, Woods made intervention when Cesaro pin Kofi. Kofi then did a School Boy to Cesaro from behind to won the match. Good match to be honest.

Winner: The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) (with Xavier Woods) [New Champion]

Dean Ambrose VS Luke Harper (Continue)

The match continued at the segment of New Day interview as new champion with Ambrose jumping from top of the car to the new champion. The brawled continued at the back stage and back to the ring. Both competitor then brought a lot of chair inside the ring, Harper hit Powerbomb to chair but Ambrose broke the count. Harper buried Ambrose with chair moment later and he climb the turnbuckle, Ambrose back to his feet to slam Harper from the corner. Ambrose Dirty Deeds Harper and got the win. I have to say I feel disappoint to this match, both superstar should be able to bring much better match. No extreme moment for no disqualification match is new policy of WWE, i think.

Winner: Dean Ambrose

Rusev (with Lana) VS John Cena (c) [WWE United States Championship]

Russian Chain match will be the stipulation for this match. The only way to win is to lighr a lamp at all corner when tied to the opponent. After the bell rung match started with pull chain between two superstar, Rusev let off the chain and splash Cena. He then light 2 lamps and Cena avoid the three. Cena light three but Rusev pulled the chain and beat him. Rusev threw Cena outside the ring and using chain as a crane to tear Cena. Cena change the position after pulled the chain and cause Rusev to hit the steel post. When Rusev back in control he used chain as a weapon and light three lamps, Cena rolling outside to prevent the fourth. Rusev send Lana back to backstage after she responded with audience chant. Cena do Five Knuckle Shuffle following with AA but Rusev reversed it into Alabama Slam. Rusev tried the Accolade that turn to STF by Cena. Cena on three lamps while Rusev prevent the last. Accolade finally attempted on Cena, Cena tried to overpower it and get up. Cena banging Rusev back to the corner and light 2 lamps for Rusev in process. Resev that realised that latet tried to continue to light all lamps but Cena pulled the chain in fourth lamp and did an AA to Rusev. When they waked up both superstar light the lamp until three. When goes for the fourth, Cena pulled Rusev and again threw an AA. Cena light the last lamp.

Winner: John Cena

Naomi VS Nikki Bella (c) (with Brie Bella) [WWE Divas Championship]

Just regular Divas routine.

Winner: Nikki Bella

Big Show VS Roman Reigns 

Last Man Standing match. Big Show start the match with punch over punch to Reigns. Reigns fight back and threw Show outside. Reigns set up the table but Show destroyed it with his bare hand. Show also broke kendo stick than Reigns brought. Reigns finally beat Show with chair and DDT him too in the chair but Show could get up in 7 count. Just after Reigns bring couple of table into the ring, Show punch him with KO Punch. Reigns back to his feet at eight count. Show tried to Chokeslam Reigns but he counter it and hit Samoan Drop to the table, both wrestler is down. Show then Spear Reigns and Splash him from second rope, Reigns still not fall. After Reigns hit two Superman Punch, Show catch him and Chokeslam him outside through the table. Reins get up in nine count. Moment later Reigns Spear Show through the barricade, both wake up on the eight count. Another Sprear is launch now it destroy Spanish commentary table. Show tried to get up but Reigns threw other commentary table and buried him under it. Reigns got his ten count. Reigns really could deliver good match but he need more move variation and other way beside being bullied for along the match and get win with one move.

Winner: Roman Reigns

Randy Orton VS Seth Rollins (c) [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]

A Cage match with Kane as Gatekeeper. As the match started Rollins tried to climbed the cage but Orton caught him. Orton then beating him and Rollins again tried to escape when he had opportunity. Rollins got his pin after threw Orton in steel cage, but only two count. Rollins continued to punish Orton with bouncing him to steel cage several times. Orton got his momentum after Rollins missed jump and bring him to steel cage. The match continue at the top of cage, end with Orton Power Slam Rollins when he jump from top rope. Rollins near escape the cage moment later, Orton caught him and deliver Superplex from top of the cage. Rollins could broke the pin. Orton got his momentum but RKO is banned so he's using Pedigree, still only two count. Orton missed his Punt Kick and Rollins kick his head. Rollins then order Kane to open the gate and crawled toward the out, Orton caught him at the door. Orton walked to the door and Kane closed it, Orton had a argument with Kane. Rollins tried to sneak attack and hit Kane instead. Kane back and slam the door to both wrestler, Kane enter the ring followed by J&J security. J&J stopped Kane from touching Rollins but got double Choke Slam. Kane Choke Slam Orton, Rollins tried to escape Kane Choke Slam him too. Kane dragged Rollins body over the Orton. The referee count, Orton could move his shoulder. Kane again tried to Tombstone Orton but Orton reverse it to RKO. Rollins sneak and RKO Orton, he then rolled to the door and get his foot touch the ground.

Winner: Seth Rollins

Extreme Rules that doesn't extreme, even in Chicago Street Fight with the Lunatic it's still disappointment. Tag team and last man standing delivered good show for that night. WWE need more development in Divas division and new direction for Rusev after his US champ reign. Actually there's other match schedule for this PPV between Daniel Bryan against Barret for Intercontinental belt but Bryan was injured and  the match change to dark match between Barret and Adrian Neville with Neville as the winner.

Give this PPV 5.5 from 10 point.

HOLY SH*T MOMENT OF THE NIGHT

PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - WWE FASTLANE 2015


Last PPV before Wrestlemania, this PPV is replace other famous PPV Elimination Chamber. Taken place in FedExForum, Memphis let's shift the gear up.

The Authority (Seth Rollins, Big Show and Kane) (with Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury) VS Dolph Ziggler, Erick Rowan and Ryback

Nothing special in this match, just like match in weeklies show. Rowan dominated early match until his spinning kick hit the post, The Authority taken over from here. Big cheers from crown when Ryback enter the ring and squashed Rollins, Big Show saved The Authority. Hot tag made with Ziggler and Kane, Ziggler dominated the Kane and from outta nowhere, WMD hit Ziggler. The Authority won the match and thrashing their opponents after match. Randy Orton made a return and saved the day.

Winner: The Authority (Seth Rollins, Big Show and Kane)

Goldust VS Stardust  

Family affair, we predict this match will happen sooner or later so here there is. Goldust started the match in his control with strike attack, he than set up for Shattered Dreams in the corner but Stardust slipped out the ring. It's nice to seen Stardust reaction to "Cody" chant, it's like he really affected by that. Stardust got the opening when Goldust approached him, Stardust worked Goldust outside the ring and tried to pin after tearing him. Goldust stolen the win after get crucifix pin when Stardust failed to executed a Cross Rhodes. After the match there's incident between Rhodes family in the backstage, maybe their feud will be brought to Wrestlemania.

Winner: Goldust

The Usos (Jimmy and Jey Uso) (C) (with Naomi) VS Tyson Kidd and Cesaro (with Natalya) [WWE Tag Team Championship]

Surprisingly this match was good, for me. The Usos got the game on early, the heels team got their opportunity when Cesaro in and worked in the leg of Jimmy. Jey made the hot tag and changed the tide to Usos favored. From here the match is gotten exciting double team move, suicide dive, brawled outside the ring. Kidd applied the Sharpshooter to Jimmy but Jey saved him, Cesaro then brought Jey outside the ring. Kidd got the pin after performed Fisherman neckbreaker.
......and your new champions.........Kidd and Cesaro.

Winner: Tyson Kidd and Cesaro [New Champions]

Triple H Confronts Sting
Triple H came to the ring to called Sting out, Sting then came out shortly after that. Triple H confronted Sting and says that is guy like him who end Sting legacy in WCW but he can give another chance to rebuild his legacy, through WWE network because is best for business. Sting just silent but his expression say he didn't accepted that. Triple H suddenly attack Sting but Sting can counter the strike, Triple H than hit Sting with microphone. After beaten Sting, Triple H go to outside the to get his Hammer, Sting answered it with his bat. Sting pointed to Wrestlemania logo, he challenged Triple H in that event. Triple H tried to sneak attack but Sting bat was more fast, later Sting executed Scorpion Back Drop to Triple H. Sting left the ring.

Nikki Bella (C) (with Brie Bella) VS Paige [WWE Divas Championship]

Skip......

Winner: Nikki Bella

Bad News Barrett (C) VS Dean Ambrose [WWE Intercontinental Championship]

So much potential for this match to became good. Both superstar exchange the tides, move after move executed with high pace. Barret got the Wasteland but Ambrose could escape the fall, than Ambrose nailed the Dirty Deeds but Barret slipped out the ring and called the match end bring his belt to way out. Ambrose prevented Barret escape with suicide dive, Ambrose continued his aggression until the referee called the match. Frustrated, Ambrose delivered the Dirty Deeds to Barret and brought the belt into the backstage.

Winner: Bad News Barrett

Bray Wyatt Challenge The Undertaker Segment
Bray Wyatt came to the ring with Undertaker themes with druids, lighting and with all the theatrical entrance. He even inside the casket, he challenged The Undertaker for match in Wrestlemania and he say that Undertaker era is over now is era, the new face of fear.

Rusev (C) (with Lana) VS John Cena [WWE United States Championship]

Can Cena beat the unbeaten?
Rusev dominated Cena with his power and speed. Cena occasionally get the opportunity but again got crushed by Rusev. Cena finally got the upper hand after counter the suplex, he even performed five-knuckle shuffle but then Rusev got an advantage again. Cena could steal the AA dan STF but Rusev could cope with it, they make him very strong to this point. At the end of match Lana entered the ring to distract the referee and meanwhile Rusev hit a kick to Cena's groin, after that he applied the Accolade. Cena unconscious at he process and Rusev won the match. Not a bad match.

Winner: Rusev

Roman Reigns VS Daniel Bryan

The main event is for decide who will face Brock Lesner at Wrestlemania. Reign started the match with his strength and Bryan came with technique and speed. Both of them exchange move over move. Reign got the upper hand after hit three times back slam followed with dropkick. When he tried to hit a Superman Punch, Bryan kick his liver. He seems to felt the pain at his liver, Bryan working on it. The match became good from here, both superstar made their best effort inside and outside the ring. Superman Punch was hit when Bryan tried to jump from the top rope and Bryan answered it with Running Knee moment later, but both Superstar could break the pin before three counts. The Spear finally launched when Bryan tried his second Running Knee. Reign win the match after the cover. Good match for main event to be honest.

Winner: Roman Reigns

That's the end of the show. The interesting point from this event is Orton return, Sting face Triple H at WM and Rusev still unbeaten even after face Cena. The event not so good, if it's not a kick off before Wrestlemania it can be acceptable but for pre event before the biggest event in pro wrestling they should do better. 

The bottom line, i will give it 5 from 10 to this event. Better then Royal Rumble by the way.

PRO WRESTLING REVIEW - ROYAL RUMBLE 2015


First PPV by WWE in this year, it's always good to start the year with one of WWE's main PPV. Taken place in Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania let's we start the RUUMBLLEEE!!!!

Cesaro and Tyson Kidd (with Natalya and Adam Rose) VS The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) (with Xavier Woods)
New Day dominated with Big E while the opponent over power with Cesaro. Nothing special in this match, Kidd steal the win after hit Fisherman neckbreaker to Kingston. I think The New Day idea didn't work well so far.

Winner: Cesaro and Tyson Kidd

The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor) VS The New Age Outlaws (Road Dogg and Billy Gunn)
This was quick match, NAO began the match with Gunn and could out power Victor until Konnor came to the ring. Ascension ended the match with Fall Of Man. After winning against legend I think it's time for Ascension to face the main roster even if they doesn't came for title picture yet, they can maybe face Los Matadores or Slater gator or feud with Miz/Mizdow.

Winner: The Ascension

The Usos (Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso) (c) VS The Miz and Damien Mizdow [WWE Tag Team Championship]
The Usos has been the main tag team in WWE for this 2 years, they never out from title race. Right now they are on their second reign of the title. Miz and Mizdow given their rematch title match after their lost in RAW. It always fun with Mizdow in the match, "Mizdow awesome", "We want Mizdow" will always echoed in the venue but the fans never get their favorite in the match cause Miz never tag Mizdow. The match went fast, Miz never dominated the Usos and it never in their favored even after two skull crasher finally to Jay Uso. The Usos can cope the match after Jimmy Uso performed a frog splash to Miz.

Winner: The Usos

The Bella Twins (Brie Bella and Nikki Bella) VS Paige and Natalya
Not interested with this match btw. I skip this match after Paige entrance the only thing that importance....

Winner: The Bella Twins

Brock Lesnar (c) (with Paul Heyman) VS John Cena VS Seth Rollins (with Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury) [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]
Best match of the night. What will you do to beat the monster Lesnar? Cena tried with three times AA, smash through the barricade and hit with stair. Rollins hit Curb Stomp, hit with briefcase even elbow drop to the commentary table. The monster still standing with two feet and win the match. Cena delivered a good match with Rollins while Lesnar is away. Rollins finally did a Corkscrew 450° splash his signature move in ROH.

Winner: Brock Lesnar

30-man Royal Rumble match
Many upset with this match result, yeah me too. Surprise entrance for this time are Bully Ray oh, his name is back to Bubba Ray in here, Boogeyman and DDP. The biggest upset is they make Bryan and Ziggler looks like jobber. They made Wyatt elimination so lame after his great performance even Ambrose didn't get good elimination. The Rock appearance to saved Reigns didn't help either, the fans still dissatisfied with the out come. I recommended this match only if you want to nostalgic with old superstar, hear "We want Rusev" chant or see The Rock got a boo treatment from the fans. 

Order of Elimination:
  1. The Miz (by Bubba Ray)
  2. R-Truth (Bubba Ray)
  3. Bubba Ray Dudley (Wyatt)
  4. Luke Harper (Wyatt)
  5. The Boogeyman (Wyatt)

  28. Rusev (Reigns)
Kane got a new record for most elimination all time (previously HBK) following four eliminations this year after his other record (most elimination in one match) was broken by Reigns last year.

Winner: Roman Reigns.

Except for WWE Title, this PPV is fail. The WWE Title saved this year royal rumble even Vince use it for advertise the network, WWE Network, after many fans shouted #cancelWWENetwork on Twitter shortly after the event. Even God didn't like the result, so he made bad weather to cancel RAW the next Monday.
Let's hope WWE can fix it in next PPV, Fast Line.

For me it's 4/10 with WWE Title get 3 poins alone.
