CHAOS (RPG VICE(Berretta and Rocky Romero), WIll Ospreay, and the Briscoe Brothers (Mark and Jay)) def. Bullet Club (Bad Luck Fale, Marty Scurll, Yujiro Takahashi, and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) when Romero pinned Matt Jackson
-interesting result considering this was on the heels of The Young Bucks, Marty Scurll, and Cody all getting Hot Topic Deals via Pro Wrestling Tees.

Los Ingobernables de Japon (BUSHI, EVIL, SANADA, and Hiromu Takahashi) def. Jushin Thunder Liger and Team CMLL (Dragon Lee, Titan, and Volador Jr. ) when Takahashi hit the Time Bomb on Titan
-This showed how good LIJ is as a unit

Jay Lethal eliminated Hangman Page via Lethal Injection
-This was an interesting matchup in terms of the pacing. Surprised that Page didn't win considering the injuries Lethal was coming in with.

Zack Sabre Jr. eliminated Juice Robinson via Biker Stretch
-I loved this match (mostly because I'm a huge Zack Sabre jr. mark.) Enjoyed this one from beginning to end.

Jay White and Taguchi Japan (David Finlay, Hiroshi Tanahashi, and KUSHIDA) def. Hunter Club (Billy Gunn and Yoshi Tatsu) and The Tempura Boyz (Sho Tanaka and Yohei Komatsu), when Jay White hit a Sister Abigail on Yoshi Tatsu
-Good matchup to set up the following night's main event.

War Machine (Hanson and Raymond Rowe) def. Guerrillas of Destiny (Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa) to become the new IWGP Tag Team Champions
-THIS was a good match. Wasn't expecting the title change, and the American crowd made this better

Tomohiro Ishii eliminated Tetsuya Naito via Vertical Drop Brainbuster
-This was a great introduction to Ishii. Naito (I guess true to character) didn't exactly show everything, but was super over. Great match.

Kenny Omega eliminated Michael Elgin via One-Winged Angel
-Match of the Night. Everything was hard hitting from beginning to end. They had a previous rivalry for the Intercontinental Championship that ended in a Ladder Match that Elgin won. Omega clinching the victory after some of the roughest power spots I've ever seen.

Kazuchika Okada def. Cody Rhodes to retain the IWGP Heavyweight Championship
-While not match of the night, Rhodes proved he belonged in the main event.....but Okada showed that he can appeal to an American audience and not just a Japanese Audience. Fantastic main event complete with wonderful in-match story telling between Rhodes and Omega.

NIGHT 2
Jushin Thunder Liger and Taguchi Japan (David Finlay and KUSHIDA) def. The Tempura Boyz (Tanaka and Komatsu) and Yoshi Tatsu when Finlay pinned Tatsu
-Good opener for night 2, mostly because the Ref got more cheers than The Tempura Boyz and Yoshi Tatsu

Kenny Omega eliminated Jay Lethal via One-Winged Angel
-Solid Semi-final match. Lethal's injury definitely affected the performance and the match quality.
Tomohiro Ishii eliminated Zack Sabre Jr. via Vertical Drop Brainbuster

Team CMLL (Lee, Volador, and Titan), Jay White, and Juice Robinson def. Los Ingobernables de Japon (Tetsuya Naito, Hiromu Takahashi, SANADA, EVIL, and BUSHI)
-Surprised to see this victory....borderline disappointed. But at the same time, I do enjoy Juice and Jay.

Bullet CLub (Hangman Page, Tama Tonga, and Tanga Roa) def. Michael Elgin and War Machine (Hanson and Raymond Rowe)
-Hangman Page proved in this match why he belongs in New Japan. This was a fantastic showcase for the non-Elite members of The Bullet Club. I also enjoy Elgin and War Machine as crazy hosses.

The Young Bucks def. RPG Vice (Berretta and Rocky Romero to retain the IWGP Jr. Tag Team Champions, Ricochet attacked them afterwards and announced that himself and Ryusuke Taguchi challenge for the titles.
-This match was very good, but I was more excited for Ricochet showing up after all the drama with Lucha Underground. Can't wait to see Taguchi Japan compete against the Bucks.

Bullet Club (Bad Luck Fale, Cody, Marty Scurll, and Yujiro Takahashi def. The Briscoe Brothers (Mark and Jay), Will Ospreay, and Kazuchika Okada via Cross Rhodes on Ospreay
-Cody had so much heat and Okada was so beloved on this night. It was great to see Cody grab the victory, especially over Will Ospreay who's a great talent in his own right. Can't wait to see what's next for Cody, Marty Will, and Okada in the upcoming months.

Hiroshi Tanahashi retained the IWGP Intercontinental Championship over Billy Gunn
-The most prodding match of the weekend, it did a good job of showing off how good Gunn still is after all this time and how good Tanahashi is working with just about everyone. There's a reason he's called the Ace of the Universe and this is one of a plethora of great examples why.

Kenny Omega def. Tomohiro Ishii via One-Winged Angel to become the FIRST IWGP United States Heavyweight Champion
-This was a great way to end the special, with the crowd's hero winning the United States Championship. His post match interview is even better. I would go to say that the best match of the weekend was probably his first round match with Elgin, but the final was definitely a Top 3 match of the weekend. Ishii, always the sturdy doormat (not in a bad way), came through with yet another fantastic performance. Great weekend of shows!

Takeover WAR GAMES and Survivor Series

NxT Takeover War Games

Lars Sullivan def. Kassius Ohno
Good opening match, with Lars being able to dominate like he needed to. Ohno did great making Sullivan look good and Sullivan played the big man well.

6 out of 10

Aleister Black def. Velveteen Dream
MOTY candidate. This was a very compelling match where the Velveteen Dream came out as the Next big thing. Fantastic match from beginning to end.

8.5 out of 10

Ember Moon pinned Nikki Cross and defeated Peyton Royce and Kairi Sane to become the NEW NxT Women's Champion
Ember Moon suffering the Asuka curse honestly. The crowd was definitely tired after the previous match. I wanted Kairi to win because I love Kairi Sane. But I greatly enjoyed this match regardless of the tired crowd.

7 out of 10

Andrade Cien Almas w/Zelina Vega def. Drew McIntyre to become the NEW NxT Champion
-Definitely a surprising result but considering the high hispanic demographic in Houston, this was well received. Also, since Almas was the original Ingobernable, I say this is a predecessor to a potential Los Ingobernables invasion in the distant future. TRANQUILLO!

7.5 out of 10

The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole (BAY BAY) and ReDRagon (Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish)) def. SaNItY (Eric Young, Alexander Wolfe, and Killian Dain) and The Authors of Pain (Akam, Rezar, and Roderick Strong) w/Paul Ellering after Adam Cole (BAY BAY!) hit a shining wizard on Eric Young.
This was the first War Games match I got to see in real time rather than an old taping. While a lot of it came off a bit more choreoed than I had anticipated, it was pleasing to see how well this match was considering the only pure Babyface was Roderick Strong and he wasn't even on the most Babyface lined team on this night. Adam Cole winning made me happier. BAY BAY!

Survivor Series

Elias def. Matt Hardy
-Hopefully this leads to a more broken someone......hahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAHhahahahahhaAH

3 out of 10

Enzo Amore def. Kalisto to retain the WWE Cruiserweight Championship
-Is this stupid rivalry over now? NO MORE KALISTO AMORE PLEASE

1 out of 10

Team IWS/STEENERICO! (Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn) def. The Fashion Police (Breezango) (Tyler Breeze and Fandango)
-Solid match, but honestly Steenerico is wasted in this PPV.

4 out of 10

The Shield def. The New Day
-WHAT an opening match. This was SO good. SO GOOD indeed. Ambrose picking up the pin was a nice touch as well!

8.75 out of 10

Team Raw (Asuka, Sasha Banks, Alicia Fox, Nia Jax, and Bayley) def. Team Smackdown (Natalya, Tamina, Carmella, Naomi, and Becky Lynch)
Asuka was the Sole Survivor
-Eliminating Becky and Bayley so early was DUMB. However, the way Nia Jax was eliminated was intelligently executed and having Asuka basically be the wrecking ball at the end was perfect! Asuka correctly being used at this point!

7.75 out of 10

United States Champion Baron Corbin def. Intercontinental Champion The Miz w/Maryse and the Miztourage (Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas)
-Very good match between two heels that had a lot to prove. This was a weird heel champ vs. heel champ match. Would have had Miz pick up the victory here but, at least we got Daniel Bryan snickering on a YouTube video afterwards. Worth it. Plus I enjoy Corbin.

7 out of 10

Smackdown Tag Team Champions The Usos (Jimmy and Jey) def. Raw Tag Team Champions THE BAR (Sheamus and Cesaro)
-On any other night this was match of the night. This was great Tag Team Wrestling, even with a small bit of drag. Totally convinced that The Usos are definitely Briscoe ripoffs now. (That's not a bad thing).

7.5 out of 10

Smackdown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair def. Raw Women's Champion Alexa Bliss
Having Charlotte win here was the correct decision. This was a very good match itself, and honestly out of the four horsewomen, Charlotte had the best match with Alexa Bliss (Sasha Banks's win at Summerslam is a close second though).

7.75 out of 10

Universal Champion Brock Lesnar def. WWE Champion AJ Styles
-MITY. Honestly this was near perfection of a match. AJ coming off of a fantastic match against Finn Balor AND then winning the WWE Championship off of Jinder Mahal, it's only fitting that he pull not only the longest, but the highest quality match of Brock Lesnar's 2017. AJ Styles is the MVP of Smackdown and WWE this year. Lesnar's no slouch in this case either. Can't argue with this result at all.

9.5 out of 10


Team Raw (Braun Strowman, Triple H, Kurt Angle, Finn Balor, and Samoa Joe) def. Team Smackdown (Shane McMahon, Randy Orton, John Cena, Bobby Roode, and Shinsuke Nakamura)
Triple H and Braun Strowman were the Survivors, Triple H with the deciding pinfall.
-And then this match happened.

Having Nakamura, Roode, and Joe eliminated first was infuriating. Then having Cena eliminated (thank god Balor did the damage) without any real major impact was worse. Glad at least Strowman avoided the "let's focus on the Attitude era people" part of the booking of this match. Worst told story of Survivor Series since Rock and Cena. (BOO ME).
Horrible until the post match attack.

2 out of 10

Post match, Strowman attacked Triple H justifiably.

Raw wins Survivor Series 4 matches to 3 matches.

Clash of Champions (Smackdown)

Damn this PPV. I don't have a nice belt because of this damn PPV

Mojo Rawley def. Zack Ryder
-Got this one right and it was like every other PPV preshow match. Blah

Dolph Ziggler def. Baron Corbin and Bobby Roode to become the NEW United States Champion
-Dolph Ziggler. Reason no. 1 I DON'T Have the belt. The jerk.
-It was a very good match. Very similar to the Styles/Dillinger/Corbin Triple Threat from Hell in a Cell. Nothing to write home about necessarily, but satisfying.

The Usos (Jey and Jimmy) def. Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin, The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston), and Rusev and Aiden English
-RUSEV DAY
-Was definitely happy with this match. Very good match even though it was a bit chaotic to say the least.

Charlotte Flair def. Natalya via Figure 8.
-Ruby Riott. Reason No. 2 I don't have the belt. She stopped Carmela from cashing in. Therefore BOO Riott Squad Boo! Boo Riott Squad.
-This wasn't one of their better matches. The Lumberjills (YEAH I SAID JILLS) were too distracting. And no cash in amongst the chaos was an opportunity missed.
-BOO RUBY RIOTT

The Bludgeon Brothers (Luke Harper and Erick Rowan) def. Breezango (Fandango and Tyler Breeze)
-Got the result, but not happy about The Ascension not coming out to make a save.

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn def. Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura to save their jobs (Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon the Special Guest Referees)
-Chaoitic and very draining. Not a well put together match. Too much on the refs, and not enough focus on how it could end careers of Steenerico. Having Bryan fast count made perfect sense. (should have broken another table)
-Happy that Zayn got the pin over Orton. Not happy that I predicted Owens getting the pin on Nakamura.
-Screw Shane McMahon in this match.

AJ Styles def. Jinder Mahal via Calf Crusher
-Correct person won! Jinder's best match in this run. (Especially considering his two best matches were both Championship losses.)
-Wanted more finisher teases.

I didn't win the belt. So therefore angry. This PPV was very good if you take away the Women's lumberJILLs match. Good otherwise.
