WWE Survivor Series 2009 Review
1. Team Miz (The Miz, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, Drew McIntyre, Sheamus) vs. Team Morrison (John Morrison, Evan Bourne, Finlay, Matt Hardy, Shelton Benjamin). Dolph Ziggler was eliminated after Bourne hit him with Air Bourne. McIntyre eliminated Bourne after hitting him with the double arm ddt. Finlay was eliminated after Sheamus hit him with a big boot to the face. The ref was taken out after he got hit in the head. Morrison hit Swagger with Star Ship Pain to eliminate Swagger. Miz eliminated Benjamin after hitting him with the Skull Crushing Finale. McIntyre eliminated Matt Hardy after he hit him with the double arm ddt. Morrison was down 3-1 to the Miz's team. Sheamus eliminated Morrison after hitting him with a boot in mid air and then tossing Morrison across the ring. The Miz wins as Sheamus, Miz, and McIntyre are the sole survivors. Good match nothing that blew me away. ***
There was a segment with Team Kingston which was pretty good.
2. Batista vs. Rey Mysterio. Rey got in some offense early on in the match. The crowd was pro Batista.Rey hit Batista with two 619's to the body and then he connected with one to the head and Rey with for a frogsplash but Batista got his knees up. After that Batista killed Rey. He hit him with a spear, spine buster, and three Batista bombs. The ref called the match after the third Batista Bomb and giving the win to Batista. After the match Batista hit Rey with a spine buster onto a chair. Batista then left as they put Rey onto a stretcher. The match wasn't the greatest but I enjoyed it and I enjoyed what happened after. ***
3. Team Orton (C.M. Punk, Randy Orton, Legacy, and William Regal) vs. Team Kingston (Kofi Kingston, MVP, Mark Henry, Christian, and R-Truth). Henry got eliminated early on after Orton hit him with an RKO. Punk eliminated R-Truth after Punk hit him with the GTS. Ted DiBiase was eliminated after Christian pinned him with a roll up. MVP eliminated Regal after hitting him with a boot to the face to even up the odds. Rhodes eliminated MVP after he hit him with the Cross Rhodes. Christian eliminated Rhodes after he hit him with the Killswitch. Orton eliminated Christian after hitting him with an RKO. It's 2-1 as Orton and Punk against Kingston. Kingston rolled up Punk to eliminate him and then he hit Orton with the Trouble in Paradise to get the win for his team as he is the sole survivor. Good match I liked this one a tad bit more than the opener. ***1/4
4. World Heavyweight Title Match: Big Show vs. Chris Jericho vs. The Undertaker (C). Early on in the match Jericho and Show teamed up and attacked the Undertaker. During the match a fan told Jericho to go back to Toronto and then Jericho replied with I'm from Winnipeg you idiot. This was a disappointing; well to me at least I couldn't get into this match. The match the end came when Taker made the Big Show tap out to the Hell's Gate. **1/2
5. Team Michelle vs. Team Mickie. God why is this on pay-per-view and it's a traditional Survivor Series match which makes it worse. Kelly Kelly eliminated Layla. McCool eliminated Gail Kim after hitting her with the Faith Breaker. Eve eliminated Jillian after rolling her up. Beth eliminated Eve after hitting her with the Glam Slam. Phoenix eliminated Kelly after hitting her with a glam slam. Mickie James eliminated Phoenix after rolling her up. Mickie James eliminated Fox. Mickie and Melina win and are the sole survivors after McCool gets eliminated. This match was a waste of time with random eliminations. *1/2
6. WWE Title Match: John Cena (C) vs. Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels. DX came out together. The match started with HBK super kicking Triple H in the face. Triple H hit Michaels with a spine buster through the announcer's table. Michaels hit Cena with Sweet Chin Music then Triple H. Michaels fell to the outside and Triple H landed on Cena but Cena kicked out at two. The end came when all three men were reversing each other moves and Michaels hit Triple H with Sweet Chin Music and then Cena hit Michaels with an Attitude Adjustment onto Triple H and Cena pinned Triple H for the win. Great Match. ****1/4
Matt Striker did a really good job commentating through out the night.
Overall Score: 7.5/10

TNA Turning Point 2009 Review
1. X-Division Championship Match: Amazing Red (C) vs. Homicide. It's refreshing to see two guys in an X-Division match instead of having the ring full of guys. Don West was at ringside with Red and he was annoying. This was a good match. It was a bit sloppy. Red did a Moonsault and Homicide "hit" him with a cutter. Amazing Red won after he hit Homicide with the Code Red. ***
2. TNA Knockout & Knockout Tag Title Match: The Beautiful People vs. ODB (C), Sarita (C), & Taylor Wilde (C). Not all the titles can be won. Or I think? Tenay and Taz said that whoever gets the pinfall gets the belt. When Lacy was in the match the fans chanted you can't wrestle. The champions retain after ODB hits Madison Rayne with the TKO. This was a decent match, better than what I was expecting. **1/4
3. TNA Tag Team Title Match: Beer Money Inc. vs. The Motor City Machine Guns vs. The British Invasion (C). This was a good match. The Invasion won the match after they hit Roode with a Bear Hug/European Uppercut combination. Nash came out to get his belt back from Young. Nash then hit Storm with the belt which leads to the Brits getting the win. Good match the runs in weren't needed and the finish was blah. ***
4. Six Sides of Steel Match: Tara vs. Awesome Kong. Another good match. Kong hit Tara with a missile dropkick. Tara hit Kong with a Powerbomb from the turnbuckle. It looked like Tara was going to escape the cage but instead of going over she hit Kong with a cross body from the top of the cage to get the win. **3/4
5. 6 Man Tag Team Match: Rhino & Team 3D vs. Hernandez, Matt Morgan, & The Pope D'Angelo Dinero. This was a decent match. I couldn't get into it for some reason the veterans get the win after Dvon hit Hernandez with a steel chair in the mid section and then Rhino hit Hernandez with the gore for the win. **
6. Bobby Lashley vs. Scott Steiner. This match is falls count anywhere and there is no disqualification. The stipulation helped this match out but it wasn't that good of a match. At least the match was better than I expected. The brawled in the back and then Steiner took down some scaffolding and hit Lashley with a pipe for the three. *1/2
7. Desmond Wolfe vs. Kurt Angle. This was the match I was looking forward to the most since I've been a Desmond Wolfe (a.k.a. Nigel McGuinness) fan for several years now and this match has been a dream match of mine for a while and this match delivered. This was a great match. During the match Kurt hit Wolfe with six German suplexes. Both men hit their finishers Wolfe with the lariat and the Tower of London and Angle with the Angle Slam. They both got their submissions finishers as well Wolfe with the London Dungeon and Angle with the Ankle Lock. The end came when Angle made Wolfe tap out to a armbar/triangle choke combo. ****1/4
8. TNA World Heavyweight Title: AJ (C) vs. Daniels vs. Samoa Joe. I can't remember the last time I was excited to see a TNA main event. This was a great match as well. The fans started chanting "Screw Hulk Hogan" which was great. These guys were awesome they work perfectly with each other. Great action throughout the match the end came when Daniels hit Joe with the BME and then AJ hit Daniels with a springboard 450 and then AJ pinned Joe for the win. ****1/2
This is easily the best TNA pay-per-view of the year.
Overall Score: 8.4/10

WWE: The Best of Smackdown - 10th Anniversary DVD Review

This is a three disc set. It is formated as a countdown so the DVD starts with Michael Cole and Matt Striker who are the host on the DVD and you go right into the countdown the countdown starts from 100 and goes all the way down to the number 1 moment in Smackdown history. There are around 20 matches in the DVD that you will enjoy. My favorite match on this set was Eddie Guerrero vs. Edge in a No DQ match. They show highlights of matches and moments. For instance Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle Iron Man Match is just a highlight. The highlight is good but the match would have been great.
I really enjoyed this DVD set. I've been watching Smackdown since the first episode and this DVD is like rewatching old memories. You get commentary by Santino, C.M. Punk, Michael Hayes, and several other people. For the most part the matches they put on this set were good there were no matches that were bad but I'm sure that there were better matches out there. Some of you may debate the countdown but for the most part I thought that the countdown was good. I really enjoy countdowns so I may like this DVD more than you.
If you are looking for a really enjoyable DVD that you can spend the weekend watching by yourself or with some friends this is the one for you.
Overall Score: 8/10
