HITS Silas Young & Beer City Bruiser: Let me repeat it for the 5 millionth time, Young is one of the best pure promos and heels in wrestling today. Off the heels of Young defeating […]
HITS LAX is Mad: A brief backstage segment with LAX was the best thing on this show. They were incredibly upset after their title loss, which is how every single act should feel when they […]
SMACKDOWN HITS Opening Segment: While it wasn’t great, the show got off to a decent start between Shinsuke Nakamura and Jinder Mahal. I was happy to see it take on a more serious tone and […]
RAW HITS Rollins vs. Strowman: A week episode of Raw did get off to a strong start with this match between Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman. It was a good follow up to Strowman’s match […]
HITS War Machine vs. Coast To Coast vs. The Tempura Boyz: Good job by Riccaboni and Whitmer at the beginning of the match explaining that this would be under tornado rules with all three teams […]
HITS Petey and Trevor: Well, 15 minutes with these two would have been a lot better, but sometimes you just have to take what you can get. As soon as the match kicked into a […]
SMACKDOWN HITS Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn: The show got off to a great start with Owens’ promo. I greatly enjoyed what he had to say, and he came across as a dangerous competitor who is not […]
RAW HITS The Miz: The Miz has continued to prove his worth as the Intercontinental Champion, and I feel his passion when he talks to other competitors. I particularly liked his line about how “the […]
HITS Coleman’s Pulpit: I was really looking forward to both Jay and Mark Briscoe making an appearance. Unfortunately, Mark was the only Briscoe on Coleman’s Pulpit due to the actions of Jay at Death Before […]
HITS Eli’s Promo: For the first time since winning the title, Eli Drake looked like a star. The production team did a great job splicing together the footage from Mexico and Drake was his usual, […]
SMACKDOWN HITS Opening Segment: I enjoyed Shane McMahon opening the show, and addressing the attack on his Father. Shane kept it serious, short, and to the point, which I felt was the right way to […]
RAW HITS Bobby Heenan Tributes: WWE did a nice job with their tributes to Bobby “the Brain” Heenan throughout this week’s show. I tweeted Sunday night that Heenan was THE manager and color commentator when […]
HITS Ian Riccaboni and BJ Whitmer on Commentary: I say it every week and I will say it again this week. I think the versatility of Ian Riccaboni on commentary has become a big asset […]
HITS Trevor Lee Wins Gold: The most underutilized GFW wrestler of 2017 has won gold once again. It was the right call. Sonjay Dutt is a fine mid-card wrestler but he shouldn’t have been cast […]
SMACKDOWN HITS The Kevin Owens Show: Starting with the opening and throughout, I enjoyed Kevin Owens’ appearances, and got a kick out of how he conducted himself around the other superstars. They did a good […]
RAW HITS Reigns vs. Jordan: This was a good follow up to last week’s match between John Cena and Jason Jordan. This week, it was Roman Reigns who went up against Jordan after giving Cena […]
HITS Consistency of Past Show Recaps: When you’ve only got one hour of TV weekly, that develops some challenges even though I think a one-hour wrestling show is the sweet spot as far as time […]
HITS Low Ki’s Promo: Low Ki getting in Johnny Impact’s face and tearing him down was easily one of the highlights of the show. If he is able to bust something like that out whenever […]
HITS Jay Lethal and Silas Young Feud Recap: Nice video package placed at the beginning of the episode showing some of the highlights and key moments of the Lethal and Silas feud that has been […]
NOTE: I am filling in for several weeks on Smackdown Hits & Misses for PWTorch’s Jon Mezzera, who will continue to cover Raw each week. SMACKDOWN HITS Opening Intros: The show got off to an […]
RAW HITS Jordan vs. Cena: Raw got off to a pretty good start with the recap of the John Cena – Roman Reigns verbal encounter from last week, followed by this match with Cena taking […]
HITS Petey’s Match: A solid return for Petey Williams to the company. Due to how ineffective Caleb Konley has been positioned on TV, the match maybe should have been even more of a showcase squash […]
HITS Jay White & Jonathan Gresham vs. War Machine: Correct me if I am wrong but I don’t remember War Machine as being announced as appearing on this week’s episode when we went off air […]
NOTE: I am filling in for several weeks on Smackdown Hits & Misses for PWTorch’s Jon Mezzera, who will continue to cover Raw each week. SMACKDOWN HITS Benjamin/Gable: After 7 years, it was good to […]
