Welcome to the 20th issue of the Entertainment Report. Thank you everyone for your support and helping spread the word about what we do here. It's you who keeps this going every week so know that I appreciate you for reading every week.

Before I continue, Monday was me and Mandy's seven year wedding anniversary. I wanted to take a moment to thank her for supporting me and putting up with me building the Report over the last six months. I love you babydoll.

This weekend I hope everyone enjoys Hockey Day in America on Sunday. NBC/NBCSN will be airing a triple header. It'll be a great day for the sport, so if you are a football fan looking for something to watch, jump on over and join the fun.

Now before we get started a huge thank you to @travlord and the @EastCoastCast as always for helping spread the word, especially for the on air mention on the VIP side last week. Every retweet or repost helps and is always appreciated.

This is the final PPV before WrestleMania. I'm excited for that fact alone. As for this show, this might be the best card the WWE has put together in February in a long time. Let's get into it...

The rematch everyone saw coming, no one has argued with. Aside from "Storytime with The Rock" the build has been fantastic. I'm still not sure what to do with this matchup. I guess I have to go with the obvious...

Winner and still WWE Champion: The Rock

So Del Rio is more Mexican than last month and Big Show can't decide if he's a monster or a diva. That brings us to this matchup and an obvious winner...

Winner and still World Heavyweight Champion: Alberto Del Rio

Just looking at that group, it's extremely insane to see where Smackdown has come in the last year. There are two things I think that are definitely going to happen. #1, Jack Swagger will not be the first one eliminated. #2, the match will come down to Mark Henry and Daniel Bryan. It'll be a total mismatch but should be a fantastic back and forth leading to...

Winner and #1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania: Mark Henry

This is an amazing six man tag match. It could main event any other PPV throughout the year. Now the question is how does it end. Honestly this is the most unpredictable matchup on the show. But since one half of the Mania main event is in there...

Winners: John Cena, Ryback and Sheamus

Bet you didn't know this match was on the card. It wasn't even announced on Raw. The better question is has Kaitlyn even been on TV in the last week or so? I want to care so much but this is completely out of nowhere...

Winner and still WWE Divas Champion: Kaitlyn

Another match not announced on TV. At least this has build up, too bad it will end like the pre-show last month...

Winner and still WWE United States Champion: Antonio Cesaro

Didn't Team Rhodes Scholars just break up? This is the comedy match of the night and should at least be fun...

Winners:Brodus Clay & Tensai

This was a very interesting episode. It wasn't a bad episode by any means but it felt like a maintenance show. Everything that happened seemed to be leading to something bigger in a later episode.

Starting in New York, Kurt exploded on Rachel on becoming a major Diva. This argument led to him challenging her to "Midnight Madness" aka the singing version of Fight Club. They performed Bring Him Home and Kurt won. This all led to actually bringing them closer together in the end. I personally loved how they referenced Defying Gravity from season one.

Meanwhile in Lima, Finn challenged the Glee Club to bring out the diva out of them. This lead to fun performances from Blaine, Don't Stop Me Now, and a surprise appearance by Santana, Nutbush City Limits, which looks like will be the last time we see her in a cheerleader outfit. Santana's appearance really didn't sit well with Tina who vented to a sick Blaine. This led to a very uncomfortable moment in Blaine's bedroom where they were trying to figure out a song for her to perform and Blaine passed out because he was so sick. She ended up straddling him, opening his shirt and rubbing cream on his chest. It was so bizarre and weird. At least we for a fantastic show stopping performance, Hung Up, out of it from Tina.

Now as that was going on, the Internet exploded, and this time not because of Daniel Bryan/CM Punk match. This was because of the love triangle between Santana, Brittany and Sam. For fear of outrage from fan girls, I'm not going to choose between Bram and Brittana. But I will say that I was completely invested in this storyline all night. Fro Sam and Santana both professing their love for Brittany in Make No Mistake (She's Mine) to Britt calling her out and telling her to follow her dreams in New York to a stunning performance of Girl on Fire by Santana, this was just old school fun.

Now finally the minor subplot to lead to next week's show. Next week is Will & Emma's wedding. This is four seasons in the making, and I can't wait. But this week they threw a big wrench in by having Finn fall for Emma and kiss her to calm her down from an OCD freakout. That totally shocked me. This will make the next show more interesting.

Looking at his numbers for the season up until last week, you would be questioning the Wave's decision as to why they have been keeping rookie Israel Sesay on the active roster. Well in the past two games Israel "izzy", has shown the league and Milwaukee that he was worth the wait. The indoor game is completely different than the outdoor game. Especially playing under coach Keith Tozers style of play. Sesay picked up where he left out last week against the Missouri Comets, scoring the first goal of the game beating Rochesters goalie Gavin McInerney to his near post. Guiliano Oliviero then made it 4-0 in favor of the defending champions. Sesay finished off his second of the evening which brought the halftime score to a 10-4 advantage for Milwaukee. Pedrinho opened the scoring for the Lancers with a powerplay goal midway through the third. A beautiful strike from rookie Paul Craig put the lancers with in one as he was credited with a three point goal.  Goals by Nick Perera and Ian Bennett brought the Wave's lead back to 5. That was also Perera's second goal of the evening as well. A quick restart goal by Doug Miller brought the score to 14-11. Miller who is the league's oldest player at 44 years young. Also leads the league with 41 goals. One final shot by Miller was deflected by midfielder JP Rodrigues with just seconds remaining in the game to help preserve Milwaukee's 16 game winning streak.

The team embarks on a 5 game road trip before returning home march 2 and march 3rd to close out the regular season.

2/7/13-Tampa Bay at New Jersey

The Devils special teams are becoming a huge part of their success. Ilya Kovalchuk got a shorthanded goal and Andy Greene and Patrik Elias scored on the power play. Add on an Adam Henrique goal and you have a 4-2 New Jersey victory.

2/9/13-Pittsburgh at New Jersey

What a difference a week makes. It was a historic afternoon at The Rock as Martin Brodeur became the first goalie to play in 1,200 NHL games. Despite an early Brandon Sutter power play goal, he made 24 saves for the victory. While the 40 year old legend was making history, the scoreboard went to the youth. Stefan Matteau tied the game with his first career NHL goal, Bobby Butler scored a power play goal and got an assist for his first points as a Devil and Adam Henrique scored as well.

2/10/13-New Jersey at Pittsburgh

What team is this? Is this the team that lost their leading scorer over the summer? Or is this the team that continues to prove the hockey experts wrong? Yes, that's right the Devils beat the Penguins again, 3-1. Now on a five game winning streak, New Jersey is showing that this is indeed a team game. David Clarkson scored two more goals to continue his hot start and Ilya Kovalchuk scored as well. Johan Hedberg made 23 saves for the win.

2/12/13-Carolina at New Jersey

Every good streak must come to an end. Jiri Tlusty scored two goals in the third for the Hurricanes to end the Devils' five game win streak. Ilya Kovalchuk and Ryan Carter scored for New Jersey.

After a rare two days off, the Devils stay home to host the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday night and then return to Long Island to face off against the Islanders again. Then finally they will a President's Day afternoon game against the Ottawa Senators.

2/8/13-Houston at Milwaukee

It's starting to seem like the NHL season is catching up with the Ads. The Aeros came into the Bradley Center and destroyed the Admirals 5-2, led by two goals and an assist by Justin Fontaine. Cam Reid and Austin Watson got the Milwaukee goals.

2/10/13-Peoria at Milwaukee

This felt like an old school hockey game before all the rule changes. Magnus Hellberg made 30 saves to record a shutout for a 1-0 Admirals victory or the Rivermen. Mark Van Guilder scored the lone goal for the Ads.

2/12/13-Abbotsford at Milwaukee

The Admirals and Magnus Hellberg won their second straight game with a 2-1 win over the Heat. Juuso Puustinen and Taylor Beck scored in victory and Chris Mueller assisted on both goals.

The Admirals finish up their mega home stand with a three pack over the weekend. Friday night they the San Antonio Rampage, Saturday night against the Charlotte Checkers and Sunday afternoon against the Abbotsford Heat.

• Dutch Mantell made a surprise return to the WWE on Monday night as Jack Swagger's manager Zeb Coulter. Based on his first promo, this either will be really interesting or a total train wreck.
• DirecTV has issued a survey to ask their subscribers what they think of adding the WWE Network as a pay station. The plan includes all PPVS that are not WrestleMania. This is the most info we've gotten in a long time on the station. There should be more coming on this during the McMahon conference call on 2/28.

• On Sunday night, The Walking Dead destroyed their own cable ratings record set last year. The show got 12.3 million viewers and 6.1 rating, head to head with the Grammys, raising to 16.6 million with the encore included. Those are unreal numbers for a cable show and has better numbers then most broadcast TV shows lately.

• The Philadelphia Flyers signed Kimmo Timonen to a one year contract extension. (2/7/13)
