PLAY BY PLAY

Edge is here!

The Rated R Superstar is in the Toyota Arena as he prepares for his final showdown with Seth Rollins! And after Rollins invaded Edge’s home, he’s bringing Rollins into HELL IN A CELL! Edge gets a mic and has a chair to take a seat in the ring. “So Seth, this all started between us seven years ago when you tried to use me as a stepping stone to notoriety. You spring forward seven years, and we find ourselves in each other’s way with a need to become Universal Champion. Which you caused from happening.” But this is so much more than that now. All those weeks after winning in Madison Square Garden, Rollins called Edge out while he wasn’t cleared to complete.

Rollins got greedy, called Edge’s bluff and went to Edge’s home. Not house, home. Houses are four walls but home is where Edge breaks bread, puts bandages on scraped knees and tucks his little girls into bed every night. “And you pissed all over it.” Rollins is watching backstage as Edge says this is out of his playbook. Edge once slapped John Cena’s dad! And here’s the thing: Edge underestimated Rollins. And that’d be like underestimating himself, which he never does. They’re so much alike, that when they see mistakes, they capitalize. Rollins underestimated Edge, Edge beat him decisively. Edge did that in MSG and Rollins stretchered Edge out of the world’s most famous arena.

Edge wants Rollins to know that he’s the only guy who comes close to matching him in passion, intensity and obsession for this. Close, but not equal. Rollins is not Edge Lite, Edge admits that. Rollins is his own man, he IS Seth Freakin’ Rollins. Rollins likes hearing that. Fans chant, “Seth, You Suck!” and Edge likes hearing that. But because Rollins is different, Edge has to end this. Otherwise, their families will be effected. Edge could go to Rollins’ home and encounter Becky. But Edge won’t do that. Edge will channel this feeling and change the look in Rollins’ eyes, leaving nothing but a husk of the man we see now!

A few weeks ago, Rollins said he felt sorry for Edge. That is a mistake. You never feel sympathy for the devil, and that’s what these two are. Edge won’t hesitate to put Rollins down. Edge had his opening last time, he will not hesitate this time. Their trilogy ends in Hell in a Cell! Rollins, listen real closely to this blueprint of Rollins’ future: “I am going to scar your SOUL! And that is a scar that you NEVER, EVER heal from!” Edge is ready to go to new depths to settle the score, but will it truly end at Crown Jewel?

 

King of the Ring Semifinals: Sami Zayn VS Finn Balor!

The Great Liberator used the Mysterio Family dysfunction to his advantage while The Prince battled the Swiss Cyborg straight-up. Will Sami have a trick to deny Balor the throne? Or will the Prince ascend to Crown Jewel and be a step away from the achievement of a lifetime?

SmackDown returns and Sami makes his entrance. Sami kisses the crown, that confident he’ll be wearing it soon enough. The bell rings and the two circle. Sami goes to a corner for defense but comes back to tie up with Balor. Sami waistlocks, Balor wrenches free and hammerlocks. Balor wrangles Sami to the mat as fans chant, “Sami Sucks!” Sami fights up, spins through but Balor puts the hammerlock right back on. Sami elbows out and then headlocks to scrape Balor’s face! Fans boo, Sami stalks Balor and kicks him low. Sami CHOPS Balor, whips him to ropes but Balor reverses. Sami sunset flips, Balor rolls through to basement dropkick! And then he arm-drags Sami to a cording hold!

Sami endures, Balor cranks the hold, and Sami grabs at Balor’s beard. The ref reprimands, Sami knees low and whips Balor to ropes. Balor ducks and dodges but Sami CLOBBERS Balor! Cover, TWO! Another try, TWO! A third, TWO! Sami grows annoyed but the fans rally up for Balor. Sami puts Balor on the ropes and chokes him! The ref counts, Sami lets off at 4 and he throws body shots. Sami wraps on a chinlock and traps an arm to bring Balor down. Balor endures, fights up as fans rally, but Sami knees him low again. Sami whips, Balor reverses and then throws Sami out! Balor builds speed to FLY! Direct hit at the ramp and fans fire up as SmackDown goes to break!

SmackDown returns and Sami bumps Balor off buckles. Sami pushes Balor around, bumps him off more buckles, then soaks up the heat. Sami throws haymakers and says Balor’s in the ring with a king. Balor counter punches! Fans fire up as Balor sobats, CHOPS, but Sami forearms back! Balor hits a PELE! Both men go down and fans fire up again! Sami and Balor slowly sit up, Sami gets to ropes and Balor storms over to grab him by the hair! Balor bumps Sami off buckles, but Sami HOTSHOTS back! Sami grins as he goes up a corner, but Balor CHOPS him! Balor climbs up to join Sami, Sami fights with body shots, then Sami headbutts and shoves Balor down!

Sami mocks Balor’s pose, then adjusts to jump, into a dropkick! Balor covers, TWO!! Sami escapes but Balor drags him up into the dragon sleeper, for the ELBOW DROP- NO! Sami turns that into a BLUE THUNDER BOMB! Cover, TWO!! Balor survives and Sami rolls his eyes in annoyance. Sami drags Balor up, reels him in, but Balor blocks the exploder! Sami drives in elbows again and again as fans fire up. EXPLODER into buckles! Sami goes to the corner, waits for Balor to stand back up, Sami runs in but Balor dodges the Helluva Kick! Balor GAMANGIRIS Sami down, climbs up top, but Sami trips him up!

Balor flops to the mat, Sami rolls him, with feet on the ropes! The ref sees it, though! The ref warns Sami to respect her authority, but then Balor trips Sami up to rain down rights! Fans fire up with Balor as he aims from a corner, SLINGBLADE! And then the SHOTGUN! Sami hits buckles and falls into the drop zone! Balor goes up top, to COUP DE- NO! Sami dodges and rolls him up, TWO!! Balor escapes again but Sami hurries! Clinch, but Balor wheelbarrows and victory rolls to a DOUBLE STOMP! Another SHOTGUN, and Sami flounders about! Balor fires up, runs corner to corner for a third SHOTGUN!

Sami’s down again, Balor goes back up! COUP DE GRACE!! Cover, Balor wins!!

Winner: Finn Balor, by pinfall (advances to Crown Jewel)

And the Prince is that much closer to the throne! But who from Raw will meet Balor in the finals to fight for the crown?

 

Naomi VS Sonya Deville!

SmackDown finally gets to #FeelTheGlow as Naomi is finally given her return match! And speaking of, this is the return to the ring for Sonya, too! Will Sonya realize her abuse of power was a big mistake? Or will she knock Naomi down with an iron fist?

SmackDown returns and Sonya says the party is over. She has the music cut and she warned Naomi to not walk out of the office before Sonya is done talking. Don’t worry, there is still a match going on. But it will be Naomi VS Sonya and Shayna Baszler! The Queen of Spades makes her move to SmackDown a week early, and clearly by how Sonya is dressed, she was never really going to face Naomi at all. Will Naomi be able to defy a stacked deck?

Naomi VS Sonya Deville & Shayna Baszler!

Sonya says she makes the rules, this is tornado style. Ring the bell! The bell rings and Sonya SLAPS Naomi down! Naomi chases Sonya but Shayna grabs at Naomi! Naomi breaks free to ROUNDHOUSE! Sonya realizes she’s alone now and the chase is back on! Sonya goes around the way to slide back into the ring, but Naomi sees Shayna coming and ENZIGURIS her down! But Sonya KNEES Naomi down! Shayna kicks and CLUBS Naomi, Sonya throws her jacket off as she gets serious now. Shayna stands Naomi up and Sonya throws a heavy body shot. Shayna stands Naomi back up and Sonya says, “What did you do with the opportunity? You failed, like you always do!”

Sonya and Shayna still mug Naomi but Naomi BOOTS Sonya then fires off on Shayna! Naomi dodges Shayna to springboard and FLYING ROUNDHOUSE! Naomi puts Shayna in a drop zone but Sonya anchors Naomi! Naomi drags Sonya in, but Shayna gets the KIRAFUDA KLUTCH! Sonya wants Shayna to finish Naomi, and then she mocks Naomi, “You wanted a match! What happens now?” Naomi is OUT, Shayna lets Sonya cover, Sonya & Shayna win!

Winners: Sonya Deville & Shayna Baszler, by pinfall

Fans boo but Sonya just takes a bow. Naomi gets up, gasping for air. Will Sonya continue to bully Naomi? Or will Naomi call upon someone with even more pull?

 

Hit Row is coming!

B-Fab, Top Dolla, Ashante “Thee” Adonis and Isaiah “Swerve” Scott are ready to upgrade from NXT 2.0 to SmackDown. And if you didn’t know, now you know!

 

Sasha Banks speaks.

“They say some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them. But in my case, it’s all of the above!” Now, we are just six days away from Crown Jewel where Sasha makes history when she takes back the title. Making history is nothing new to her since she’s done that since day one. But she’s also here to right some wrongs. Two weeks ago, it was Bianca Belair. Tonight, it’s Becky’s turn. Big Time Becks gets a big time beatdown as Sasha is in a whole new zone. She is here to destroy and conquer as the blueprint and our NEW SmackDown Women’s Champion.

 

Seth Rollins heads to the ring!

We heard from Edge, but now The Visionary and his half argyle, half polka dot suit get to respond. He promises to “unleash hell” but what does that mean? We find out after the break.

SmackDown returns and Rollins has a mic. He takes a moment while the fans chant, “Seth, You Suck!” But then Rollins laughs and says Edge really came out here, trying to convince all of us and himself that he has any chance against Rollins at Crown Jewel! That is the greatest joke he’s heard in some time! But let’s set the record straight: Rollins is “in no way intimidated or afraid to face Edge inside Hell in a Cell. And do you know why?” Rollins will tell us: Hell has already frozen over here in California! The man himself, Edge, finally said it! He finally uttered the words, as we all heard, Edge was wrong. Rollins is NOT Edge Lite! HAHAHA!

See? Edge is finally coming around to what we have all known all along: Rollins is BETTER than Edge in every single possible way! Rollins is in Edge’s head! He has out-manipulated the master of mind game, and if that isn’t an advantage, than what is? Rollins says he has a mental and physical advantage after the MSG stomp and the stretcher and the hospital stay. There’s no way Edge can be 100%! But then what does Edge do? “He’s got an ace up his sleeve: Hell in a Cell.” Now Rollins will say this one more time, and he will say it very slowly for all of those in the back so you can understand him. “I. Am in no way. Intimidated or afraid. To face Edge. Inside Hell in a Cell!!”

Edge is right about a couple of things, though. Fans troll Rollins with chants of “Harley Quinn!” and “We Want Edge!” Rollins says he and Edge are devils cut from the same cloth, but there is one major difference: Rollins has spent more time inside the Cell than Edge has! Rollins knows what that structure does to people, and what it has done to Rollins! Rollins has been calloused by the Cell, been scarred by the Cell, just look at him!! Rollins is who he is today because of the Cell. And Edge is right, the fairy tale does end at Crown Jewel. Just not the way Edge thinks. And Rollins knows this because he is The Visionary, he is the Revolutionary, he IS Seth Freakin’ Rollins.

 

Carmella & Zelina Vega talk backstage.

These two are so glad that they don’t have “that raggedy” Liv Morgan around. If Vega is to win, she has to go against the best. And we all know that Mella, the Most Beautiful Woman in All of WWE is 10 times better than Liv and Toni Storm. Now, Vega won’t break Mella’s face, so she doesn’t need to have that mask> They can just have the good, clean, fair match as the classy ladies they are. Mella is so happy she’s facing someone who gets it! They’re both happy for each other, but will things stay friendly this close to the finals?

Queen’s Crown Semifinals: Zelina Vega VS Carmella!

SmackDown returns and Vega makes her entrance. Mella lets her ladies know she doesn’t need them but appreciates them being on standby. The bell rings and Vega continues to promise she won’t go after the face. Mella and Vega tie up, Mella goes for a roll up, TWO! Vega applauds that one, and then she returns it! TWO, and Mella applauds. They high five then circle. They tie up, Mella waistlocks, Vega pries free to switch. Mella bumps out, wrenches and wrangles Vega to the mat. Vega endures as Mella wants fans to cheer for her. Vega refuses to quit, she fights her way up, but Mella wrangles her right back down to go after the shoulder.

Vega still endures, and she fights up again, but Mella YANKS the arm. Mella has a wristlock, Vega uses ropes to flip through and she arm-drags Mella away. Vega then rolls Mella up, TWO! FABULOUS KICK! Vega gets away to a corner and Mella apologizes, that was out of habit. Vega snarls  while wiping away smudged lipstick. THESZ PRESS! Fast hands, too! Mella pushes Vega away and worries about her face! She calls her ladies back and they get the protective mask out. The ref starts a ring count but then Mella sees Liv has snatched the mask! Liv waves hi and asks if this is what she wants. Then she shows a punch! Mella runs into the ring, Vega gets her for a cradle! Vega wins!

Winner: Zelina Vega, by pinfall (advances to Crown Jewel)

Liv gets in the ring and Mella bails out since she has no protection! Will Mella ever get past her grudge with Liv? As for Vega, she sits on the throne and has both crown and scepter. Will La Muneca become Queen Zelina soon enough?

 

“Happy” Corbin & “Mad Cap” Moss are here!

These two are back again for another episode of Happy Talk! But what will these two bust up over this time? We find out, after the break.

SmackDown returns, Corbin and Moss are in their seats as Corbin welcomes us back tot he show putting smiles on people’s faces. He welcomes his guest, the funniest man he’s ever met, Mad Cap Moss. Moss, give ’em something. So there’s this hen. Every day she lays eggs, until one day, she just stops. No one knows why and the hen is devastated. Eventually, the hen goes to see a therapist. And miracle of all miracles, she’s got a diagnosis: an egg-sistential crisis! But speaking of chickens, Kevin Owens flew the coop and ran away to Raw because he couldn’t take the heat. What do you call it when Kevin Owens is writhing in pain? Just another Friday night!

Corbin says he can’t wait to hear all the new jokes Moss will have for all the new SmackDown additions, from Charlotte to New Day to Drew McIntyre. All prime targets! Here’s one now! Ricochet and McIntyre walk into a bar. The bartender says- Rick Boogs interrupts! He introduces himself, and says he isn’t here to listen to bad jokes. He came here to ROCK with the Intercontinental Champion, Shinsuke NakamuuurAAAAAAAAAAA~!! And here he comes! Nakamura and Boogs go to ringside, Pat McAfee gets on the desk to rock out with them, and even Moss can’t help but smile. Of course, he could just be looney.

Nakamura eggs Corbin on as he and Boogs go back up the ramp to continue the concert. But wait! Here come the Street Profits! Boogs adjusts his tune to join in as Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins bring the swag like nobody can! But in their last match on the blue brand, will the Profits finally get the blue belts back and whisk them away to Raw? We find out after the break!

SmackDown Tag Team Championships Street Fight: The Usos VS The Street Profits!

SmackDown returns and The Usos make their entrance. The introductions are made, the titles are raised, and there’s no rules but to win as the Profits get one last chance!

Hands start flying already and the Profits back the Usos down. Jey whips Dawks but he spins it around to the CASH-OUT! Jey goes out, Dawkins pursues but is thrown into barriers! Jimmy flips Ford but he lands on his feet to ROCK Jimmy! Ford has Jimmy in a corner, climbs up and finishes off his drink before raining down rights! Jey drags Ford down for a back suplex to NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Dawkins returns but Jimmy DECKS him with an uppercut! The Usos go out after Dawkins but he fights them off! They get the 2v1 advantage then RAM Dawkins into barriers! Fans fire up as Ford FLIES and takes out both Usos!!

Ford fires up with SoCal and Dawkins tells him, “Tez! Get the tables!!” They bring out a table! Fans are thunderous already as the Profits pick up the table, only for the Usos to DOUBLE DIVE into them!! All four men go down and fans are fired up again as SmackDown goes to break!

SmackDown returns and Jimmy gives Dawkins some ground ‘n’ pound. Fans want tables but Jey looks under the ring and finds no table on that end. Instead, he brings out kendo sticks! He tosses one to Jimmy then brings one in for himself. Jimmy SMACKS Dawkins right in the chest! Jey takes aim and SMACKS Dawkins on the back! Dawkins writhes and rolls, but he sits up as the Usos coordinate. Fans want it “One More Time!” and the Usos DOUBLE KENDO SMACK! Cover, TWO! Dawkins stays in this so the Usos just SMACK away on him over and over and from all sides! But Ford climbs up top and CROSSBODIES in! Down go both Usos!

Jey gets up but Ford sends him out! Ford dodges Jimmy and Jimmy hits post! Ford kicks, KICKS and BACK HANDS! Ford has a chair! Catch, and CALF KICK! Down goes Jimmy, Ford covers, TWO!! Jey returns, Ford dodges but runs into a POP-UP SAMOAN DROP! Jey hushes the Profits’ fans, then hypes up The Bloodline. “UCE!” “OH!” “UCE!” “OH!” “UCE!” “OH!” Jey runs into a SUPERKICK! Dawkins pops Jey up for Ford’s BIG back suplex! Cover, TWO!! Dawkins gets the kendo stick now and fans fire up as Dawkins SMACKS Jey! And SMACKS him again! Ford has the chair to SMACK Jey again! Ford goes to a corner, Dawkins Electric Chair lifts, but Jimmy makes the save!

Ford jumps over as Dawkins is POSTED! Usos DOUBLE SUPERKICK Ford! DOUBLE SUPERKICKS for Dawkins! Cover, TWO!! The Profits are down and fans chant “This is Awesome!” The Usos put Dawkins dead center and they go up the corners. Fans still want tables, but Ford drags Jey off the top! Ford smacks Jey off the desk! Jimmy runs over but into a GAMANGIRI! And the ANOINTING! Ford FROM THE HEAVENS!! Cover, Jey drags Ford off in time! Jey picks Ford up, URENAGE through the table!! Ford is dazed in the wreckage, Dawkins flops out of the ring and hurries over. Dawkins CLOBBERS Jey from behind then rains down rights!

Dawkins bumps Jey off apron and ROCKS Jimmy with an uppercut! He blocks the superkick, waistlocks, O’Conner Roll, ONE and into an uppercut from Jey! SUPERKICK from Jimmy! DOUBLE SUPERKICKS from The Usos! Dawkins is down the Usos go up top again! USO SPLASH, TIMES TWO! Cover, the Usos win!

Winners: The Usos, by pinfall (still SmackDown Tag Team Champions)

The shirts say it all, #WeTheOnes who keep the blue gold on the blue brand! Will The Bloodline always rule SmackDown? As for the Profits, can they build back up once they move to Raw?

 

Backstage interview with Becky Lynch.

Any final thoughts on what Sasha said earlier tonight? Sasha wants to talk about greatness but Becky will tell us about greatness. Being undefeated in singles competition for almost three years. Kicking down doors so that others can waltz right in. Going off and having a baby like the god she is and then returning in record time to win a title. Greatness will be retaining this title in the biggest match of the year at Crown Jewel. Greatness is Big Time Becks, and she heads out to prove it! But will The Man come ’round only to stumble against The Boss?

Becky Lynch VS Sasha Banks!

SmackDown returns and Sasha makes her entrance. But wait! Here comes Bianca Belair to watch this up close and personal! The bell rings, Sasha and Becky focus on each other as they circle.

The Boss gets a big win with help from The EST! Becky is upset, but will she get revenge at Crown Jewel? Or will she one way or another lose the SmackDown Women’s Championship to her challengers?

Meanwhile, Adam Pearce hustles the ring crew into setting up the contract signing set. The table and chairs are at the ready, and Pearce sets the microphones down because…

Roman Reigns heads to the ring!

As always, Paul Heyman hands the belt over so The Tribal Chief can lift it up and cue the pyro. Then they go down the ramp, Heyman holding up the belt as a banner. Roman gets in the ring, is given the belt back, and he holds it up for the second round of pyro. And then, here comes BROCK LESNAR! He has his own pyro but he doesn’t waste time getting to it! Lesnar does take a moment to circle the ring before getting in, though. Lesnar takes his seat as fans chant, “Suplex City!” and he even puts his feet up on the table. Roman hands the contract to Heyman for him to review it, and Lesnar is patient. Heyman says it is everything Roman requested, so his counsel is to sign the contract.

Roman takes up the pen, signs his part, and then sets the contract down on the table. Pearce hands it to Lesnar, Lesnar just signs it without even looking. Roman laughs at Lesnar and says, “You must be some kind of a dumbass. A big dumb farmer, huh? You just sign it without even reading it? What’s wrong with you, man?” Lesnar says he read it this morning, with his Advocate, Heyman. Again Roman and Heyman have tension, and Lesnar is laughing as he  takes his leave! The Beast continues to show he can play mind games, but will he win the match with them? Will Heyman survive either way?


My Thoughts:

A really good go-home for SmackDown, though it was still clearly bogged down with usual go-home cliché. We got a lot of hype packages for the SmackDown draft choices, namely Drew McIntyre, Sheamus Hit Row, The New Day & Charlotte Flair. And we also got recap packages that while still well made were just filling up time so SmackDown could make it to 2 and a half hours. We got really good promos from Edge and Seth Rollins to hype up their Hell in a Cell match, that is going to be a lot of fun, but with them both going to Raw anyway, I honestly have no idea which way the match goes or if this even ends the feud. I mean, it should, and there’s even a way Rollins wins that writes Edge off until the Royal Rumble or beyond.

We got a great King of the Ring match with Balor naturally winning because for one, Sami refuses to go to Saudi Arabia, and two, going far in KOTR should be used to make up for Balor’s loss at Extreme Rules. The Queen’s Crown match had a promising start but nope, still disappointingly short. Liv could’ve still been why Mella lost, but did it have to be soon? This show was half an hour longer but the women’s match couldn’t be five more minutes? Naomi VS Sonya was also a bit disappointing, but the swerve did make sense. Sonya wasn’t going to play this fair against Naomi, and Shayna being Sonya’s choice sets things up for more story once the Draft “takes effect” next week.

The only good thing about Happy Talk was that it transitioned to Boogs rocking out to the SmackDown Tag Team Championship match starting. I don’t know why WWE/Vince keeps confusing cringe heat for genuine Heel heat, but that’s definitely happening with Corbin’s newest gimmick. But clearly we’re also getting Corbin & Moss VS Nakamura & Boogs that is really just a rehash of when Corbin, Nakamura and Boogs were a thing over the Wolf King’s crown. I’d rather Sheamus just blow this all up and he goes for the Intercontinental Championship and his Grand Slam. Just give a Brogue to everyone, especially Corbin and Moss.

I do love that the last half hour got to be commercial free, that was awesome. Becky VS Sasha was awesome stuff, and even Bianca’s moderate interference was alright. It was only fair since Bianca got screwed out, and so it was all a rotation through the three women fighting for the SmackDown Women’s Championship. What’s surprising is that Bianca is also facing Charlotte on Monday for the Raw Women’s Championship. It would make a lot of sense if Bianca won because she’s going to Raw anyway, so the title would stay there. That would then also mean Sasha wins at Crown Jewel to keep the SmackDown title on SmackDown. But then that does cut out a lot of the unpredictability of things, which is a bummer.

Then that contract signing to end things was actually perfectly done because it was short and Lesnar got to the point with his little mind game. I really hope Heyman does have a part to play this time, because Heyman could latch back onto Lesnar and leave Roman reeling.

My Score: 8.4/10

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Master Wato VS Yoshinobu Kanemaru!

The Way of the Grandmaster fell in the main event of last round, but he still has a chance to be in the finals! Will he stay alive just a little longer? Or will the Heel Master pour some whiskey on Wato’s dreams?

Well, to start, Kanemaru attacks during Wato’s entrance! The fans boo as Kanemaru kicks and CLUBS Wato! Kanemaru POSTS Wato, Wato falls over, and Kanemaru stomps him down! The ref reprimands but Kanemaru tells him to shut up. Kanemaru leaves Wato behind and wants the ring count. The ref has the bell ring first, and now a ring count can start. Wato rises at 3 of 20, is on the apron, but Kanemaru runs up. Wato RAMS Kanemaru, takes aim, but Kanemaru shoves the ref into Wato! Wato falls, as does the ref, and the fans boo as Kanemaru goes out after Wato! Kanemaru POSTS Wato again!

Kanemaru brings out chairs, puts on one Wato’s leg, then SLAMS the other chair on top of it! Not quite a Con-Chair-To but it gets the job done. Kanemaru SMASHES Wato’s knee on the floor, then goes back to the ring. The ref reprimands but Kanemaru lets Wato writhe. Wato clutches his knee while the ring count starts again. Wato crawls but he’s still down at 10 of 20. Wato reaches for the apron at 15, stands at 17, but manages to jump in at 19! Kanemaru YANKS the bad leg, stomps away on Wato, then stands him up. Kanemaru whips, but Wato can’t even run! The ref checks Wato but Kanemaru is right on those legs!

Kanemaru chuckles as he holds Wato open, but then he gives the ref one leg so Kanemaru can split the wishbone! Wato flounders, stands, and Kanemaru DROPKICKS the legs out! Kanemaru then grabs a leg to YANK it! Kanemaru stomps Wato more, taunts him, then drags him back up. Kanemaru has the leg for the SHIN BREAKER! And then he turns Wato over, HALF CRAB! Wato endures and the fans rally while Kanemaru sits deep! Kanemaru pulls on the leg, but Wato scrambles to the ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer but Kanemaru won’t let go! The ref counts, Kanemaru finally lets go at 4, and he drags Wato right back up.

Kanemaru whips, but Wato still can’t run that well! Wato tumbles to the apron, then slips to the floor. Kanemaru goes right after Wato to SMASH the knee on the floor! The fans rally for Wato while he writhes but Kanemaru leaves him behind. The ref checks with Wato but Wato won’t let this stop him. The ring counts as Kanemaru waits on Wato. Wato is still down at 10 of 20, just like last time. Wato slowly rises and stands at 16. Wato rolls in at 17 and the fans cheer, but Kanemaru grabs the legs for a FIGURE FOUR! Wato endures, the fans rally, but Kanemaru puts on the pressure! Wato flails, reaches out, and he drags Kanemaru along! ROPEBREAK!!

The fans cheer and Kanemaru makes the ref help him undo the hold. Wato grits his teeth and clutches his leg but the fans still rally behind him. Kanemaru stomps Wato, stomps the leg, then kicks him around. Wato stands to CHOP! And CHOP! Kanemaru KICKS the leg! Kanemaru whips Wato but Wato again falls! The leg is in bad shape but Wato refuses to give up. Wato stands, Kanemaru runs up, but Wato ELBOWS him! And BULLDOGS! The fans fire up as Wato powers through the pain! Wato crawls over to Kanemaru and fires up! The fans rally again and Wato wrenches Kanemaru. Kanemaru fights the Recientemente and goes after that leg!

Kanemaru runs, but Wato blocks the boot to spin and ZIGZAG! The fans fire up, Wato brings Kanemaru up, and Wato wrenches to RECIENTEMENTE! Cover, TWO!! Kanemaru survives but Wato just fires up again! The fans are with him as he waistlocks and TSUTEN- NO, Kanemaru grabs the ref! Kanemaru mule kicks the leg! Then he KICKS the other leg! Then he trips Wato to step through, FIGURE FOUR!! Wato endures, the fans rally as hard as they can, but Kanemaru puts on the pressure! Wato reaches out but he’s so far away! Wato pushes against the main leg, he grabs at the ref, but that won’t save him!

Wait, what is SHO doing here?! The Murder Machine is in B Block, but the House of Torture boys will always help each other cheat! The ref keeps Sho back, but Yujiro Takahashi is also here! Tokyo Pimp slides the whiskey bottle to Kanemaru! Kanemaru CLUBS away on Wato’s leg with that bottle!! The fans boo as Wato can only suffer! Kanemaru puts even more pressure on the hold, and WATO TAPS!! Kanemaru wins!!

Winner: Yoshinobu Kanemaru, by submission (gains 2 points; Wato earns 0)

Kanemaru’s game plan to go after the legs was working well enough, he didn’t need the House’s help! But perhaps Kanemaru wanted to stoop to these lows in order to win! And now Sho & Yujiro help stomp away on Wato! But here comes Yoh! Direct Drive saves his tag partner and runs off The House! He even gets a chair! Yoh wants them to man up, but that’s not happening. But now, with Hiromu Takahashi having beat Wato and issuing the tag title challenge, and now Kanemaru winning tonight… Could we really be seeing such an odd couple as Timebomb & Heel Master going for the tag titles?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Kosei Fujita VS Clark Connors!

One down, two to go. Wato is out of the running after Kanemaru cut him off at the knees, so to speak. Will the Japanese Young Punk fight his way into the finals? Or will 100 Proof bring down even the mighty?

The bell rings and the fans rally up as the two circle. They feel things out, but then Connors KNEES low! Connors CLUBS Fujita, headlocks, but Fujita powers up and out. Connors RUNS Fujita over, the fans are torn, but Connors barks. The fans bark with the War Dog and he runs. Fujita stays low, then bypasses Connors to DROPKICK!

Fujita sets up, Connors avoids the Asai Moonsault, and Fujita staggers to his feet for the JEEP FLIPPER! Connors tells fans to move so they move! Connors BOWLS Fujita into the chairs! STRIKE!

Red Shoes reprimands but Connors brings Wheel-san to the apron.

Connors aims, and he SUPER SLAMS Wheel-san onto Fujita! Fujita writhes and the fans are torn, but Connors throws up the Too Sweet. Robbie Eagles is here via commentary so he checks on his teammate and friend. Fujita is still in this so Connors lets the ring count start. The fans rally and Fujita is still down at 10 of 20. Fujita crawls at 12, rises at 14, but he flounders at 16! The fans rally harder, and Fujita springs in at 19.5! Connors hauls Fujita up to whip him hard into a corner! Fujita falls and Connors covers, TWO! Connors drags Fujita up, whips him hard into another corner, and he lets Fujita fall again.

Fujita writhes, Connors paces, and he stomps Fujita’s back! Connors drags Fujita up, reels him in, and snap suplexes! Cover, TWO! Fujita stays in this but Connors stays on him with a knee to the back and a chinlock clamped on! Fujita endures, reaches out, but Connors drags him from the ropes! Connors digs his knee into Fujita’s back, and puts a lot of extra pressure on that chinlock. Fujita still fights his way forward to the ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer and Connors lets go in frustration. Connors drags Fujita back up to snap suplex again! The fans rally and Connors aims from a corner. BANG and Connors runs in, but Fujita drop toeholds!

Fujita ties the legs up fast and has the Deathlock! Fujita has the chinlock now, but Connors endures! Connors bends Fujita’s fingers, Red Shoes reprimands, and Connors lets go  to scramble forward, ROPEBREAK! Fujita undoes the leglock and protests about the fingers, but Connors huffs ‘n’ puffs. Connors brings Fujita up, whips, but Fujita LEG LARIATS! Both men are down and the fans fire up! Fujita and Connors go to ropes, the fans rally up, and Fujita runs in at the corner. Fujita CHOPS Connors, snapmares, then goes up and out! The fans rally and Fujita springboards, MISSILE DROPKICK! Cover, TWO!

The fans rally as Connors stays in this, but Fujita shakes his head. Fujita has the legs, he turns Connors over, and he has the BOSTON CRAB! Fujita sits down deep on Connors’ bad back! Connors powers up, reaches out, but Fujita drags him back to have the HALF CRAB! Fujita puts all he has into pulling that leg back, but Connors still crawls forward! Connors fights to the ROPEBREAK! The fans cheer, Fujita lets go, and Connors clutches his back. Fujita drags Connors up and reels him in, but Connors fights the suplex! Fujita powers through, Connors wrenches, but Fujita CHOPS! Fujita runs, but Connors SNAP POWERSLAMS!

The fans cheer and rally up while both men are down! Connors rises, brings Fujita around, but Fujita fights off No Chaser! Fujita wrenches, waistlocks, but Connors fights the lift., Connors switches, lifts, but Fujita throws elbows! Fujita waistlocks, Connors fights the lift, and Connors reaches out! ROPEBREAK! Fujita KICKS the arms, O’Conner Roll and CHAOS- NO, Connors fights free, runs, but Fujita pops him up into the waistlock! Connors fights free again, and LARIATS! But Fujita is right up!? Connors runs in, Fujita dodges, pop up and GERMAN SUPLEX! Bridging cover, TWO!! Connors stays in this but Fujita roars!

The fans fire up and Fujita vows to end this. Fujita drags Connors up, fisherman and torture rack! But Connors fights free, and he ROCKS Fujita in the back! TROPHY KILLER!! Cover, TWO!! Fujita survives Connors’ old finisher, but Connors drops back and runs in, BLINDSIDE SPEAR!! Connors is targeting Fujita’s back as much as Fujita is Connors’! Connors reloads, runs in again, SPEAR to the front!! Cover, TWO?!?! Fujita survives and the fans fire up! Connors is shocked, but he roars and drags Fujita back up. NO CHASE- NO, Fujita fights free!

He has the arms, NEMOS SPECIAL!!! Connors endures but Fujita bends him back!! Connors flails, but he TAPS! Fujita wins!!!

Winner: Kosei Fujita, by submission (gains 2 points; Connors earns 0)

The Mighty Don’t Kneel, they don’t give up, and perhaps, they are still in this race! Will the Japanese Young Punk fight until the very end? Or will was this the last win he’ll get in BOSJ 32?

 

Best of the Super Juniors 32 A Block: Hiromu Takahashi VS Robbie X!

It is apropos that the most decorated man, the FOUR-TIME BOSJ winner, is in the main event of the ninth and final round. If he wins, he moves on to potentially grabbing number five! But if he loses, it will be Kosei Fujita’s time to shine. Will Robbie take Hiromu to the X-treme? Or will the Ticking Timebomb still have time on the clock?

The bell rings and the fans rally for “HI-RO-MU! HI-RO-MU!” Robbie shrugs that off as he and Hiromu circle. They run up and DOUBLE LARIAT! They stay up, and Robbie ducks Hiromu’s elbow. Hiromu dodges in return and headlocks, only for Robbie to power up and out. Hiromu RUNS Robbie over, Robbie kips up, but Hiromu CHOPS him down!

Robbie then tells fans to move as he fetches Hiromu. Fans rally for Hiromu but Robbie BOWLS Hiromu into chairs! The fans are torn as Robbie hits the strike, but Robbie also flips off the Hiromu fans. Robbie stomps Hiromu, then grabs a fan’s Hiromu towel to CHOKE Hiromu with it! Robbie throws it back at the fan, and in a way that towel is more valuable because it touched Hiromu. Robbie then drags Hiromu up to bring him to another section!

The fans hurry away, Robbie whips, but Hiromu reverses to BOWL Robbie into chairs! The fans fire up as Hiromu gets even with Robbie! Hiromu storms over to bring Robbie up, and CHOP! The fans cheer and Hiromu CHPOS Robbie again! They go through the crowd, and Robbie CLAWS Hiromu’s eyes! Robbie CHOPS Hiromu, laughs at him and the fans, then brings Hiromu back to ringside. Robbie ROCKS Hiromu, and then he takes chairs from the crowd! Robbie refreshes the count before he makes Hiromu take a swat. Robbie CHOPS Hiromu, sets the other chair up nearby, and he tells the fans he’s gonna end Hiromu!

Robbie runs, uses the chair to launch himself, CANNONBALL!

Robbie puts Hiromu in the ring, then he stomps Hiromu. Robbie drops an elbow on Hiromu’s arm, then wrings it to stomp it! The fans rally while Hiromu writhes, but Robbie clamps on a chinlock.

Hiromu goes to the apron, lines up a shot, and SHOTGUN DROPKICKS!

The fans fire up as Hiromu rises, and he goes for Robbie. Hiromu puts Robbie in, covers, TWO! Robbie shakes his head, he’s tougher than that, but Hiromu stays close. Hiromu brings Robbie up, fireman’s carries, but Robbie fights  it. Hiromu throws Robbie into the dragon sleeper, Robbie spins around, but Hiromu still suplexes. Robbie knees Hiromu, then Robbie suplexes to hang Hiromu out to dry! Robbie then goes to the corner, climbs up, and GUILLOTINE DOUBLE STOMPS! Robbie hobbles his way back to the cover, TWO! The fans cheer as Hiromu stays in this! Robbie hobbles around, shakes out the legs, and goes back for Hiromu.

Robbie drags Hiromu up, reels him in, but Hiromu fights the lift! Hiromu wrenches out but Robbie CHOPS first! Robbie runs in, LARIATS, then puts a leg in ropes! Robbie KICKS the rope, then he SPIN KICKS! STANDING SHOOTING STAR! Cover, TWO! Hiromu survives and the fans rally up again. Robbie vows to end this, but Hiromu anchors a leg! Robbie stomps Hiromu, stomps him some more, then goes up the corner. The fans rally for Hiromu, and Hiromu rises to CHOP! Hiromu CHOPS Robbie again, then climbs up. Hiromu fireman’s carries, SUPER TIMEBOMB 1.5!! Cover, TWO!!! Robbie survives and the fans fire up!

Hiromu is frustrated but he rises up using the ropes. The fans rally and Hiromu has Robbie again! Fireman’s carry, and CORNER DEATH VALLEY! The fans fire up with Hiromu and he fireman’s carries again! TIMEBOMB- NO, Robbie sunset flips and stacks! TWO!! Robbie runs up, Hiromu BOOTS him, and Hiromu goes up! Robbie PELES and Hiromu falls! Robbie roars, rises, and climbs, X EX- NO, Hiromu dodges! Robbie comes back, but into an OVERHEAD SUPLEX into the corner! The fans fire up while both men are down! Red Shoes checks both men, they’re both able to continue, and the fans rally back up.

Hiromu crawls away and the fans chant for him. Robbie stirs, Hiromu heads back for him, and Hiromu stands Robbie up. Hiromu fires a forearm, Robbie staggers away to ropes, but Robbie comes back. Robbie fires a forearm, but Hiromu fires another. Robbie fires a forearm, Hiromu fires a forearm, and Robbie fires another! Both men wobble, but they rise up, and Hiromu fires a flurry! Robbie drops to his knees, but he flips Hiromu off! Hiromu grins, and he bends that finger! Hiromu CHOPS Robbie, then reels him in for VICTORY- NO, Robbie slips free of the suplex, waistlocks, but Hiromu fights the suplex!

DOUBLE LARIATS collide, both men drop to their knees, but they go forehead to forehead! They stand, Robbie ducks a kick to SUPERKICK! Hiromu SUPERKICKS anyway! Robbie says F U and hits a PELE! Robbie runs, handsprings, but into a BACKSTABBER! Robbie writhes, Hiromu runs, HIROMU-CHAN BOMBER!! Cover, TWO!! Robbie survives and the fans fire up again! Hiromu feeds off the energy and he storms over to Robbie.

Hiromu drags Robbie up, fireman’s carries, and TIMEBOMB 1.5!! But that’s not all! Hiromu fireman’s carries again, but Robbie bends Hiromu’s fingers! And then he BITES them! Red Shoes reprimands, Hiromu takes a swing, but Robbie dodges! Handspring, LETHAL INJECTION X!! Robbie says F Hiromu! Another LETHAL INJECTION X!!! And now he goes up the corner! X EXPRESS!!! Cover, ROBBIE WINS!?!

Winner: Robbie X, by pinfall (gains 2 points; Connors earns 0)

So what if he was the underdog? So what if he’s last place? So what if he replaced Bushi in the block? Robbie X just beat the most decorated Super Junior alive today! And that means the winner of A Block is KOSEI FUJITA! Hiromu is furious, but Fujita walks back out here to have the spotlight! Fujita and Hiromu cross paths, and Hiromu pats Fujita on the shoulder as he exits. Fujita goes to the ring, and Robbie invites him in given Robbie won the main event. Robbie tells Fujita to get this in his little brain: Robbie beat Fujita, he beat Hiromu, so… If Fujita wins this whole thing and beats El Desperado, do what is right!

Robbie wants the first championship match with Fujita! The fans like that, and Fujita nods in agreement. Robbie leaves, will Mr. X have his chance at gold? As for Fujita, he grabs the mic to say, “Sorry to those of you who may have wanted to hear more from Robbie X. But if I’m in the position of naming challengers, then I will give him the first title shot.” The fans applaud, and Fujita continues on. “I won this A Block.” The fans applaud that, too, and Fujita says he’ll take “all the hope, hate and then I’ll win. That’s all!” The Japanese Young Punk keeps it short and sweet, but will the Ichiban Sweet Boy become the Best of the Super Juniors?

 

Here are the FINAL A Block standings!

Kosei Fujita: 5-4, 10 points [FINALIST]
Hiromu Takahashi: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Master Wato: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Francesco Akira: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
Clark Connors: 5-4, 10 points [ELIMINATED]
KUSHIDA: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Ninja Mack: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Dragon Dia: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Yoshinobu Kanemaru: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]
Robbie X: 4-5, 8 points [ELIMINATED]


My Thoughts:

An awesome start to the ninth round, and it is always fun to have these final playoff scenarios sort out. Mack VS Dia was great, even for not affecting anything, and I really do hope these two guys become the next big thing. I figured Kanemaru would screw Wato over with help from Sho & Yujiro, and this definitely feeds into the tag title story that involves Hiromu. Fujita overcoming Connors and Robbie X getting the upset on Hiromu was all awesome stuff, and I like the gentlemen’s agreement that Robbie will be the lineal contender should Fujita win the title. B Block is going to be awesome, I’m sure, and there are all sorts of great choices for Fujita’s opponent.

My Score: 9.1/10
