Issue #3

10/4-10/12

Welcome to a very jam packed issue. It has turned out to be a very busy week so I'll keep this intro short.

Special thank you to the FTW Podcast for retweeting issue #2 and doubling my views. It was unexpected and I am very appreciative.

That being said let's get started...

Episode: The Break-Up
Best Song: Don't Speak
Worst Song: Give Your Heart A Break

Let me start by saying thank you to Ryan Murphy. I believe now. This was the most complete, emotionally driven, amazing episode in a long time, maybe ever.

I'm honestly not sure what was sadder, during Don't Speak, which will remain in my mind for years to come as one the most powerful group numbers ever performed (not on stage), Blaine crying his way through Teenage Dream, or Santana's heart stopping rendition of Mine. By the time The Scientist, I was spent.

They found a way to bring the new kids, especially Marley & Jake, into the fold in a unique way and got us to he point we needed to get to in the Brittana storyline.

Two personal notes. I really missed Finn. I know alot of people have a problem with him as a character & a singer but damn did he bring a breath of fresh air into the show. I know they promised certain characters at different times, but not having Finn on Glee is like not having JD on Scrubs, it doesn't work at all.

Also I thought it was fitting that the most mature breakup was actually Brittana. I hope they get back together down the road one day. They were so awesome together.

This show also put forth storylines, especially Will & Emma, going forward.

I just hate that we have to wait till after the World Series to continue the star.

At least they left us on an amazing note.

Wrestling PPV Predictions
(Disclaimer: Picks are as of the day of this post, 10/11/12. If any matches get added or changed I will not becoming back to edit them.)

This is TNA's biggest PPV of the year and while it doesn't feel as special as it has in the past, it's still set up to be a very good card.

I've been torn on this match because I really like both of these men. But the more I think about it, Jeff Hardy has had the redemption storyline going for most of the year and I think he's earned his way back to the top. So...

Winner and new champion: Jeff Hardy

Am I the only one who doesn't care about King Mo in this match? It pretty much ruined it for me. I've been looking forward to this matchup since Lockdown and it's a year in the making. So that means we need a MMA fighter that no one cares about to be the ref? Blah.

As for the match itself, I really wanted a wrestling match instead of another hardcore match but oh well. This should be paint-by-numbers booking so...

Winner: James Storm

Can this be anymore obvious? Bully Ray is going to turn on Sting and be the A&8s insider. Then it will be revealed that Eric Bischoff is in charge and Garrett Bischoff and Matt Morgan are in the group.

Winner: Aces & Eights

This might actually be the most difficult match to predict on the card. You can honestly make a case for all three teams. I want AJ & Kurt to win but I think it makes more sense...

Winner and still the world tag team champions of the world:Daniels & Kazarian

Student vs. teacher round two. If I had any belief this feud was continuing I wanted to pick Tara but I don't so...

Winner and still knockouts' champion: Miss Tessmacher

They foreshadowed this match before Joe won the belt so this works for me. Magnus stands no chance...

Winner and still television champion: Samoa Joe

Does this match count as a gut check match? To it's credit, this match has been drawn out for months now and while I'm not as high on him as most people are, I have to say:

Winner: Joey Ryan

ROH World Heavyweight Championship
Kevin Steen (c) vs. Micheal Elgin
Winner: Micheal Elgin

ROH World Tag Team Championship
S.C.U.M. (Jimmy Jacobs & Steve Corino) vs. The Briscoes
Winner: S.C.U.M.

ROH World Television Championship
Adam Cole (c) vs. Eddie Edwards
Winner: Adam Cole

Mike Mondo vs. Mike Bennett
Winner: Mike Bennett

Jay Lethal vs. Davey Richards
Winner: Davey Richards

Rhett Titus & BJ Whitmer vs. Charlie Hass & Shelton Benjamin
Winner: Rhett Titus & BJ Whitmer

Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander vs. The Bravado Brothers
Winner: The Bravado Brothers

Roderick Strong vs. Tadarius Thomas
Winner: Roderick Strong

Thoughts

Well this is a good card on paper. But my thing is why are the Lethal/Richards and Cole/Edwards matches happening? I thought Matt Hardy was going to challenge for the TV title? Is Lethal turning heel? None of that makes sense at all.

Also, as much as I like Steen, it's time for a new champion. Elgin deserves it and this means he could break way from the House of Truth and maybe it would freshen the whole company up.

I will not be ordering the show, mainly cause I have no trust in ROH IPPVs whatsoever. I will be turning to ROH World on twitter for updates.

Newsbytes

Brian Gewirtz out of WWE Creative

This is a major story in the wrestling industry. Brian Gewirtz has been the main main in creative for 15 years and suddenly, as Raw dropped to a 2.5 rating, Vince demoted him. Hopefully this will make Raw easier to watch, even though I their main problem is being a three hour show. It looks like Eric Pankowski has moved up the ranks. He is being credited for Saturday Morning Slam and WWE Main Event while it has added more WWE TV, if Main Event is evident of his writing style I'm intrigued.

Jim Cornette out of ROH Creative

This, in my opinion, is great news. I think Cornette has been a cancer in ROH. Other than the house show I went to, it has been hard to follow ROH storylines. There are too many logic holes, it makes TNA's booking a few years ago look good. Hunter Johnston, aka Delirious, is taking over. Hopefully things get better.

CM Punk punches a fan at the end of Raw

Seriously what the hell as Punk thinking? If you didn't see the end of Raw, the main event was Vince McMahon vs. CM Punk. The two of them got into a knedo stick fight, Ryback and Cena came down to confront Punk and then Punk out of the way. Well security didn't get to Punk in time and the fans started pestering him, hitting him and pushing him. Then Punk hit a random guy n the head and then then palm hit him. I'm sorry I know Punk was being abused by the fans, but there is no reason to hit a fan ever. The fan is now suing.

Music Reviews

Really enjoyable. Problem with this album is that it's the first since the American Idol themed rock operas. I know it's not fair but it's a very high bar that is set after those. Also this is the first of three albums in a six month span. I will say I really enjoyed this album as a whole, and it kinda just flies by which is a high compliment. For me it's like they crossed what was successful in American Idiot & Dookie and gave it to us here. Some songs are repetitive but would be great concert songs.

Favorite Song: Let Yourself Go
Grade: B+

TV News

What the hell happened? That's the only thing I could say. This week the celebrities got to make the dances and play director. This led to a very fun, interesting night, that involved flying, wigs, stage diving and a scared donkey. That being it was a really good show on Monday night.

Best Performances: Shawn/Derek, Apolo/Karina, Giles/Petra

Worst Performances: Bristol/Mark, Kristie/Maksim

I still want to know what Emmit was going to do with the donkey. Now this was a double elimination week so that means we lost two couples.

Bottom 2 Round 1: Kristie/Maksim, Drew/Anna

Eliminated: Drew/Anna

Bottom 2 Round 2: Sabrina/Louis, Helio/Chelsie

Eliminated: Helio/Chelsie

Where did that come from? Two former champions knocked out on the same night? Stunning to say the least.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to plug Comic Book Men, this Sunday night at 11:30pm (10:30pm CT), after the Walking/Talking Dead on AMC. For some reason this is being ignored by other entertainment sites. This show based in Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash in Red Bank, NJ is one of the funniest shows that you aren't watching. Plus, despite the title, you don't have to be a comic book nerd to enjoy it. Also it's only a half hour, so pop it on your DVR and enjoy it.

Sports News

Today should have been the first day of the 2012-2013 NHL season. You know if there wasn't a lockout. Not only is the lockout still going on but the NHL and NHLPA are having meetings and ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING!!!!! It makes me sick to know that after all the positives since the last lockout it's all being buried again. If you want to hear my rant about this, go here.

Quick Hits

• I know it's sounds weird but hearing Liam Neeson curse on Sportscenter made me laugh, if only because of Mike Hill's reaction alone.
• Why is everyone so shocked that Sam Champion is gay? I honestly didn't look at it like it was a big deal at all.
• Mariah Carey got extra security to protect her because Nicki Minaj threatened to kill her. And this is still a good idea FOX? Is the minor ratings boost really worth ruining the creditably of your biggest show?
• ESPN is going to stream KHL games on the web and on ESPN2 during the lockout. That is almost like a fuck you to the NHL since the relationship between Disney and the NHL has been very strained since the last lockout in 05.
• Apparently Tammy Sytch, aka Sunny, decided to this month was a good time to do her Amanda Bynes impression. She has been arrested for various reason over the last month five times, including twice in 24 hours earlier this week. This is getting insane, just keep her in jail at this point.
• This is the only thing I'm saying about the Hogan sex tape. Nothing. Moving on.

Podcast Plug

With Glee going off for over a month due to baseball, and you are a gleek, I suggest getting your fix by listening to this show. The hosts Josh, Jen & Ed are not just uber-fans where the show can do no wrong. they are very honest and opinionated and even take phone calls from fans. Definitely a fun listen, especially if you are a true Gleek. 

That's it for issue #3. Don't forget to check out my NFL Week 6 picks, I've been on a hot streak lately and one of my picks this week might shock people.

Next week I will be covering TNA Bound for Glory, WWE Hell in a Cell, more DWTS craziness and other stories that come up.

Till then, thank you for reading.

Entertainment Report

Issue #2

9/27-10/3/12

This has been an interesting week for me personally. I was sick and busy, and it was an oddly slow week in fun stories, so finding topics to fill this issue was difficult. But I think it will be fine. I'm still trying to figure out the format and what I want to cover, so it might seem like I'm jumping around through things over the first few weeks. For this I apologize but it is a new format for me and I'm still trying to figure it all out.

That being said, let's get into this issue...

Episode:Makeover
Best Song: Everybody Wants to Rule The World
Worst Song: The Way You Look Tonight/You're Never Fully Dressed (by default)

What a difference a week makes. While the show wasn't perfect, lack of Marley is one of my reasons, this was as close as it gets. This episode flew by and was just alot of fun to watch. I also appreciate the self awareness of the show and all the throwaway jokes that you'd actually have to watch the show a few times to catch them all. I haven't said that in a long time.

A few notes, I didn't realize that Sarah Jessica Parker can actually sing. The election stuff cracked me up all night and I love the fact that by the end of the show, even before the "next week on Glee" preview, I wanted next week's show to start already. I love the turn in Blaine's character and all the seeds that were planted for Clane and Finchel.

Rating: A

If this week has proved anything to me it that there is so much talent with the all star format that someone great will go home every week. It sucks but it's true.

Best Performances: Shawn/Derek, Joey/Kym, Helio/Chelisie, Sabrina/Louis, Gilles/Peta

Worst Performances: Bristol/Mark (by default)

Let me say that I have alot of respect for Derek & Gilles for not giving up, working hard and doing hardcore dance moves through injuries.

Final 2: Joey/Kym, Helio/Chelisie

As you can see by my favorites list, I was shocked when it came down to these two.

Eliminated: Joey/Kym

Shocking and sad to say the least. The show is not going to be as entertaining as it has been recently.

Other TV Notes

Me and CJ watched the TMNT premiere that aired this past Saturday on Nick. I will say this was a really good premiere. People have problems with reboots by this felt like a brand new show. It almost felt like this saw the success of Ultimate Spiderman and animated this show with that format. Very well done and I'll admit when I was listening to the backstory again, I got giddy like a little kid. They didn't change alot to be honest. The only thing I have to get used to is April being a teenage instead of a reporter, but she's voiced the adorable and awesome Mae Whitman so it could work.

This should really just be about CBS comedies in general, but these are the two that we watch. Welcome back! Both of these shows picked up right where they left off, even caught up new viewers without annoying the current fans and were both just beginning to end funny. They reminded me why I love comedies, especially when they are doing multi-camera, old school style.

After writing my report about Idol last week I was completely amused by the video TMZ posted of Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey. Seeing them arguing just about made my point on why I a skipping this season. I have no interest in watching those two argue all season. Neither of them are close to being as intriguing as Simon Cowell and it's just going to be a train wreck. Thank you for giving me another reason to not watch. 

Music News

Congrats to Darius Rucker on being invited to be a part of the Grand Ol' Opry this week by Brad Paisley. It's a honor and he definitely deserves it. I hope they are it on TV so I can see it. It should be a fun night. 

Podcast Plug

This week's podcast is going to the FTW podcast. It is a really funny wrestling show and defintely worth a listen. Also this gets the honor because they retweeted me during Raw this week so yay for them. 

Okay that's that. A few shoutouts real fast. First of all, congrats to Wade Keller and the Pro Wrestling Torch who are celebrating it's 25th Anniversary this month. #2, I want to send you to read my friend's Jaclyn funny blog she posted yesterday. If you are a parent, it's really funny and truthful at the same time. Finally some housekeeping, if you are a wrestling fan take a look at my Top 10 best and worst matches in TNA Bound for Glory history and my NFL Week 5 picks are also up. 

That's it for issue #2. Next week I will be covering the last Glee episode before the baseball break, TNA's Bound for Glory and other news items as they come up. Till then, thank you for reading.

TNA Bound for Glory:Top 10 Best Matches

With Bound for Glory right around the corner, today I will present, the Top 10 Best Bound for Glory matches of all time. This is personal opinion and I am welcome to comments and discussion on the matter.

#10

2007

This match was just alot of fun and a great way to start the show. Plus I like the surprise of LAX actually winning and the rarity that the Ultimate X was for something other than the X Division Championship.

#9

2011

The rivalry that never ends. This was a rare great I Quit match. I'm usually not a big fan of this stipulation but with these two they actually made it alot of fun.

#8

2007

This match made me happy. Just because I loved Black Machismo and the fact that they actually gave Lethal  a legit run with the title. He deserved it and this match showed why.

#7

2010

For a clusterfuck of a PPV that the 2010 BFG was, this match has and always will stand out. It was fantastic and a rare true heel-face matchup in tag team wrestling. It was entertaining and I wish we saw more of these two.

#6

2007

Special Guest Enforcer: Matt Morgan
I can't explain why I love this match so much. It was a war between two ring generals and just pure entertainment. Plus I like the addition of Matt Morgan to the match unlike others.

#5

2009

Some people don't like this match very much. For me I thought this was well done. I like the story they told in this match and it felt like Matt Morgan's coming out party. Then again no one can really have a bad match with Kurt Angle so that's also helps.

#4

2007

This was when women's wrestling in TNA was at it's all time best. The start of the Knockout's division. This was a very entertaining match and introduced us to a new crop of women that changed wrestling for a long time.

#3

2009

What a match. I didn't know that Sting had it in him to pull this match off. It was entertaining, thrilling and some forget now that Sting was truly pondering retirement at this point. It also ended Sting's undefeated streak at BFG. AJ also deserved this win big time.

#2

2006

Going into the way back machine for this way. This was the end of their what seemed like year long feud. It was a really good steel cage match. If you read my worst of list, I complained about the purpose of having a steel cage match on this PPV when you do run Lockdown in April, this was the exception to the rule. This match was needed and it was well done.

#1

2005

30 Minute Iron Man Match

Simply amazing. This might be one of the best wrestled matches I ever saw. It was just put together so well. It wasn't boring even in the lulls, it was the ultimate cliffhanger. This match is was BFG should be used for. Great matches and great feuds. Plus it was a 1-0 finish for AJ and the pinfall came with like a second left on the clock. This is and will always be one of the best matches in TNA history.

That's that. If you haven't already, read my Top 10 Worst Matches in Bound for Glory history and then next week I will be posting my BFG 2012 picks in issue three of the Entertainment Report. Till then feel free to comment and talk about my picks.

TNA Bound for Glory:Top 10 Worst Matches

With Bound for Glory right around the corner, today I will present, the Top 10 Worst Bound for Glory matches of all time. This is personal opinion and I am welcome to comments and discussion on the matter.

#10

2009

This match was just sad to be honest. I love Eric Young but not this one. There was an alright back story with the Main Event Mafia and World Elite, that really didn't make much sense in hindsight and the end of this one was just sloppy. Also this was the end of the Legends Championship in general.

#9

2009

Honestly I just hated this match. It wasn't a "dream match", it was a match that obviously Joe didn't even want to be in. This is seriously just personal choice.

#8

2008

Need I explain this one? Just the name of the match is awful

#7

2007
Fight for the Right Reverse Battle Royal

Part 1: Lance Hoyt, Kaz, Alex Shelley, Chris Sabin, James Storm, Eric Young, Robert Roode and Junior Fatu eliminated Jimmy Rave, Havoc, Shark Boy, Petey Williams, Sonjay Dutt, Kip James, B.G. James and Chris Harris

Part 2: Robert Roode & Eric Young eliminated Alex Shelley (3), Lance Hoyt (4), Kaz (5), Chris Sabin (6), Junior Fatu (7) & James Storm (8)

Part 3: Eric Young (1) defeated Robert Roode (2)

This match is WAY too complicated. The first half was a REVERSE Battle Royal. Why does that match even exist? Then the 2nd part was a ranking system battle royal then it was Young-Roode in a one on one match that actually made sense because of their rivalry. I would not have a problem if the first part happened on Impact or just didn't happen at all. I like the fact that the Top 8 led to a ranking system but the way they got there was just stupid.

#6

2006
Kevin Nash Open Invitational X Division Gauntlet Battle Royal
Austin Star defeated Sonjay Dutt, Maverick Matt, Jay Lethal, A-1, Zach Gowen, Kazarian, Sirelda, Shark Boy, Alex Shelley, D-Ray 3000, Johnny Devine, Elix Skipper, Short Sleeve Sampson. Norman Smiley and Petey Williams

What do you get when Kevin Nash tries to help the X Division and throws a battle royal where the winner gets a bowling trophy? This crapfest.

#5

2010

Honestly I hated this storyline in general. The ECW guys shouldn't have been wrestling anymore. The fortune  guys didn't deserve to be in this match. Plus why is a steel cage on the Bound for Glory when they have a full PPV of steel cage matches? Just blah.

#4

2008

I'm not sure what's worse? The match or the fact that Steve "Mango" McMichael was the guest referee. The match was sloppy and just bad. I mean Abyss was lit on fire and it was almost like no one care. Mango was the worst ref in the history of wrestling. His slow counts made this match even harder to watch.

#3

2010

This match still annoys me. It's not even the fact that Jeff Hardy won and turned heel. I just thought this was a blah forgettable. It also doesn't help that no one remembers that match anyway. It's more remembered for the "10/10/10" reveal. I'm sorry but I HATED the Hogan/Bischoff turn and I was just never a fan of the Immortal storyline. It also didn't help that the whole thing didn't make any sense on the night in general. 

#2

2005
Gauntlet for the Gold/NWA World Heavyweight Championship
Rhino defeated Abyss, Samoa Joe, Ron "The Truth" Killings, Sabu, Lance Hoyt, Jeff Hardy, Monty Brown, Kip James and AJ Styles

Rhino defeated Jeff Jarrett (c)
Special Guest Referee: Tito Ortiz

So let's see if looking back I get this right. Kevin Nash is supposed to get the title shot for whatever reason. He gets a staff infection in his leg so he has to withdraw from the match the night before the show. So the bright idea is to have a gauntlet match to determine the #1 contender and immediately have a match with Jeff Jarrett for the NWA Championship with for some reason Tito Ortiz as the ref. In the gauntlet you have guys who wrestled in matches throughout the night, except for some reason Kip James which made things really ugly because everyone was selling injuries and exhaustion from previous matches. So then Rhino wins and quickly wins the match against Jarrett. If none of that makes sense, welcome to TNA circa 2005.


 #1

2008
Steel Asylum Match
Jay Lethal defeated Sonjay Dutt, Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, Curry Man, Shark Boy, Super Eric, Petey Williams, Johnny Devine and Jimmy Rave

Why does this match exist? That stupid red cage still haunts me. So if you don't remember this match, and thank God if you do, the point was for the X Division guys to fights and climb up to a little hole on top of the cage where a ref just happens to be waiting. Just stupid all the way around.

That's that. Coming soon I will posting my list of the Top 10 BEST matches in Bound for Glory history. Ironically a list that harder to make than this one. 

Entertainment Report-Issue #1 (Glee, DWTS, Idol, TMNT and more)

Entertainment Report

Issue #1

9/20-26/12

This week was the beginning of the fall season, kind of.

CBS ran a little behind because of Big Brother ending when it did (Yay Ian!) and it seems like NBC started airing The Voice earlier then anything else. But either way it's the new fall season.

Here's my issue. Maybe I'm just busy or getting older but not much this fall really caught my eyes or attention. I have no interest in X Factor, if The Voice was on a different night and didn't conflict with so many things on the DVR I would get into that. There are many shows that I just don't have interest in even getting into at all.

Right now the show schedule consists of Glee, Dancing with the Stars, Big Bang Theory, Mike & Molly and maybe something else thrown in once in a while. With wrestling, football and just family time, those are all I seem to have time for right now. That doesn't mean I don't have opinions on other things as well though.

That all being said, let's get into this issue...

When the season started last week, I'll admit I was a little scared. The Graduation episode in May was emotional and we said goodbye to alot of the major characters. Now in a new time slot, I kinda feel like there was new life blown into the show. I love the fact that the storylines are split between Ohio & New York, it makes it more exciting to watch.

The positives are the Rachel/Kurt pairing, the addition of Marley and the fact that show just seems to be leaning on it's past to progress all the storylines. The negatives are the lack of Finn, Santana (Skype doesn't count) and other graduating seniors. Also I'm not a fan of Brody or Unique.

Best Song: Crazy/U Drive Me Crazy

Worst Song: 3

Best Cameo: Puck

Best Moment: Marley's reaction to Jake dating Kitty was a sad moment but so realistic. 

Worst Moment: The whole Britney on stage lip syncing was to over the top even for her character.

Grade: B+ (Britney 2.0 > Britney)

With the Packers playing on Monday Night Football the game was on our ABC station here aired for the premiere episode didn't air till 1:30am. So I did get to watch before work on Tuesday morning. Well worth the wait, what a show.

First of all, I was just as surprised as everyone else that Tom Bergeron won the Emmy for reality host. He deserves it, just didn't expect it. So congrats to him!

Second, I personally love the new scoring system. The half a point score actually helps and makes it harder to get a perfect score.

Third, with all the talk about judges on other reality shows, it's good to know that after 15 seasons the judging table is exactly the same on DWTS. Very nice to see. 

Finally, this is the all star season. It's really the only reason I'm watching. I'm looking forward to great dancing and awesome entertainment.

Monday

Best Couples: Emmit/Cheryl, Joey/Kym, Sabrina/Louis

Worst Couples: Pamela/Tristan, Kelly/Val, Bristol/Mark

Tuesday

Why is the results show two hours? I didn't even watch the whole show at all. 

Bottom Two: Drew & Anna, Pamela & Tristan

Say what?? Why were Drew & Anna in the bottom two? At least Pam & Tristan went home. They don't belong on this show at all. 

New Items

After 11 years and all the craziness I think I'm done. Heading into season 12 there are three new judges and they weren't even on the road for the auditions. 

When J-Lo and Steven Tyler left, I knew it was going to be trouble. Then Mariah was named a judge ad I had issues with that. After Nicki Minaj was announced I was thoroughly annoyed. I have this extreme hatred for Nicki Minaj, matched only by my hate for Rhianna. At the point when Keith Urban was announced as judge #3, as much as I'm a country music fan, if I'm not going out of my way for Blake Shelton on The Voice, Urban won't bring me to watch Idol.

This year might be it for me. I can't believe that there will be a Carrie, Kelly, Daughtry or even a Phillip Phillips this year to draw me in,

This might change come January, but at the moment I think i'm skipping this season.

I'll keep this short and sweet. I DVRed the awards, watched the opening monologue, it sucked. I saw the first award and went to bed. When I got up and looked over the list of winners and there was only two awards for something I watched this past year:

Tom Bergeron-Dancing with the Stars-Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program

Glenn Weiss-65th Tony Awards-Outstanding Direction for a Variety, Music or Comedy Special

That's it.

I don't watch Modern Family, Game of Thrones, Homeland, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire or really anything else that won. It reminded me of the days when Frasier won every year and I never got into that show either.

I just wasn't into it at all this year.

Upcoming Shows

Real quick note, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comes back on Saturday morning this week and CJ is super excited. Between this, Pound Puppies & Saturday Morning Slam, weekend programming has drastically changed around here. 

Comic Book Men in a guilty pleasure for me. I'm a big Kevin Smith fan and since last season, I've gotten to know the Smod gang via podcasts. So I'm looking forward to the show's return on October 14th.

That's it for this week. I think I covered alot today. Come back next week for more of my thoughts on the wonderful and crazy entertainment world.
