NXT Minus 6: Takeover War Games, After Show Rankings
Bradley is back with his post-NXT Takeover War Games rankings, and there might have been some changes!

Bradley is back with his post-NXT Takeover War Games rankings, and there might have been some changes!
Before the show I ranked the matches based on my excitement for them. Now I’ll rerank them. What hit? What missed? Who was the biggest mover?
6. Dexter Lumis versus Cameron Grimes: stayed at 5
For the love of all creatures big and small, please retire the strap match. 75% of this match would have been the exact same without the strap, which means for 75% of the match I was wondering when they would use the strap. This is the stipulation of death. Grimes and Lumis did the best they could do. Let’s hope this ends the feud. 3 stars
5. Timothy Thatcher versus Tommaso Ciampa: stayed at 4
If there was more of a story, this easily would have stolen the show. Both guys know how to pummel another human being senseless. Thatcher is the uncrowned King of Bleeding Hard Way. The neverending stare down after the match was intense. Me thinks this feud is just beginning or Thatcher found himself a new co-teacher/tag team partner.
4. War Games: The Brand versus Undisputed Era, dropped to 3 from 1
If the story is that it’s the end of the Era, then UE should have spent 20 minutes getting demolished, only to rise from the ashes and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Roderick Strong, Pete Dunne and Kyle O’Reilly put on strong individual performances, but overall it felt lacking. And why does Adam Cole have not one but two finishers that suck? It must suck to suck. 4 stars
3. Leon Ruff versus Johnny Garano versus Damian Priest: stayed at 2
The story was great. Gargano is a sneaky jackass. Ruff is everybody’s best friend. Priest showed a depth of character not seen enough in wrestling. Everyone played their part, so I will not punish them for the piss-poor debacle of an ending. Priest takes out two groups of ghost faces, only to be clubbed by another? No. No. Hell to the no. The match itself gets 4.6 stars. Whoever wrote that ending gets 4.6 kicks to the beanbag, rounded up to 5.
2. War Games: Team Blackheart versus Team Lerae: up to 1 from 3
I won’t say too much, but at least three year end superlatives are a direct result of this match. This is Women’s Revolution 3.0. Lita and Trish laid the foundation. The Four Horsewomen carried women’s wrestling into the main event. The current roster can do whatever they want and it’s no longer surprising when they steal the show. Greatness is the norm. 2020 is a banner year for women’s wrestling and this match is the exclamation point it deserves. 4.8 stars
1. Someone somewhere recently said that consistency is NXT’s secret weapon. I wish I said it first, because it’s 100%. When the in-ring product is this good, you don’t have to rely on surprise turns, special guests and the other desperate trappings of a wrestling company that doesn’t trust its own product. We have high hopes for NXT and they consistently deliver. Overall, a 4 star show.

King’s WrestleMania Rewind: Charlotte Flair vs. Asuka from WrestleMania 34
Chris king is back with one of the most underrated matches in WrestleMania history–Charlotte Flair vs. Asuka!

Chris king is back with one of the most underrated matches in WrestleMania history–Charlotte Flair vs. Asuka!
We look back at Charlotte Flair vs. Asuka at WWE WrestleMania 34. ‘The Empress of Tomorrow’ put her unprecedented and historic undefeated streak of 914 days on the line against ‘The Queen’s’ SmackDown Women’s Championship.
For years, this was considered a dream match while Asuka dominated the roster in NXT, while Flair won numerous championships on the main roster on both Raw and SmackDown. The Empress made her long-awaited debut on the September 11th episode of Raw and began to tear through the competition.
Asuka outlasted all twenty-nine other women in the historic first-ever Women’s Royal Rumble match to challenge for the title of her choosing. At Fastlane, she made her choice.
The WWE Universe was so excited for this match myself included. Both superstars delivered a fantastic performance on the Grandest Stage of Them All executing counter after counter. Asuka showed off some nasty-looking kicks to her opponent, and Flair hit a thunderous Spanish Fly off the top rope. Flair was seconds away from defeat at the hands of The Empress but she locked in Figure Eight and Asuka was forced to tap out.
I can’t even begin to explain how shocked I was at this outcome, as nearly everyone expected The Empress to continue her undefeated streak and walk away with the women’s title. This controversial decision was the downfall of Asuka’s momentum. She would ultimately win the SmackDown Women’s Championship at the 2018 TLC pay-per-view in the triple-threat ladder match.
Fast forward to this year when Asuka has recently returned with her Japanese-inspired persona Kana. Kana is dangerous and ruthless and is heading into a championship with Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 39. The Empress has regained all her momentum and is highly favored to walk away with the Raw Women’s Championship. Let’s hope that Asuka and Belair can tear the house down and deliver an A+ grade match both women are fully capable of.

King: Dominik Mysterio Needs To Do This At WrestleMania
Chris King is here with what WWE should do with Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania in his long-awaited match against his father Rey Mysterio Jr.

Chris King is here with what WWE should do with Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania in his long-awaited match against his father Rey Mysterio Jr.
On this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Rey Mysterio finally snapped and beat some sense into his disrespectful punk-ass kid Dominik. The member of the Judgement Day came out to push his father again for a match on the Grandest Stage of Them All, this time with his mother and sister at ringside. The ungrateful punk told his mom to “Shut Up,” as a father even I wanted to jump through the screen and whoop his ass.
Back in October of last year, Mysterio made the emotional decision to possibly quit the company but, instead, Triple H persuaded the Lucha libre superstar to move over to SmackDown to avoid his son. This came after Dominik shockingly turned on his father at Clash at the Castle. Mysterio did everything he could to refuse his despicable son’s challenge for Mania but, a man can only be pushed so far. Mysterio will be inducted into the 2023 WWE Hall of Fame and I expect Dominik to embarrass his father during his speech to further this personal feud.
Yes, the WWE Universe hates Dominik and wants to see him get the ever-loving crap kicked out of him but, this feud is missing a special ingredient to capitalize on the biggest heat possible. Throughout this feud, Dominik has made mention of the legendary Eddie Guerrero on several occasions going back to the “iconic” 2005 feud.
I know WWE might not want to go this route but, Dominik MUST come out to Eddie Guerrero’s theme at Mania. The disrespectful punk needs to come out in a lowrider to garner nuclear heat. It doesn’t matter if The Judgement Day comes out and causes interference for Dominik to get the win, all that matters is that both superstars get the biggest payoff of this nearly year-long feud. Just imagine the Roman Reigns heat after he defeated The Undertaker and multiply that by ten. Dominik portrays the perfect heel and he truly is the missing ingredient that The Judgement Day needed to grow and evolve into a top faction.
