Wrestling Reviews and Opinions

From La Boom in Queens, NY

Your hosts are Lenny Leonard and Joey Styles

This was the first EVOLVE show broadcasted on Flo Slam

Hi Scott, happy holidays, whatever you celebrate in Canada. I write, direct, and act in online audio dramas, and I thought this was one that would be interesting to the blog in general. It’s part of an anthology series called Seminar, and the story is called "The Last Stand of the Battler." It takes place in the old territory days, where an aging wrestler and booker is on the verge of retirement and handing over the territory to someone who doesn’t quite "get" the business like he does. I play The Battler, and it’s really cool for me to (sort of) live out a childhood dream. Anyways, enjoy everyone!

The link goes to the show page, and this one is the first episode on there, and the second story in the show. (The other one’s good too, a takeoff of "The Office".)

Love and kisses,

I dunno where Brian is today, maybe Christmas shopping?

I saw Rogue One.  It was amazing.  Especially the thing at the end.  You know what I mean.

Sad to see the dreams of Ellsworth come to a crashing halt.  Dream on, dreamers!

I’m sick, my wife is sick, good times all around.

Talk about stuff here!

Welcome to the NJPW Top 10 Matches of 2016, or to give the piece its full title: Ioan’s Favourite New Japan Pro Wrestling Matches of 2016, Tinged With Guilt About Those That Didn’t Make The Cut.

Hi Scott,

Maybe it’s too early, but what are your predictions for the WM card?

I think Cena/Taker for the SD title (with either Cena winning the title at the Rumble and Taker winning the Rumble match, or vice versa), Rollins/HHH, Brock/Goldberg are pretty much a done deal.

I could also see them doing Reigns/Owens/Jericho for the universal title, Charlotte/Bayley/Sasha for the women’s title, another IC multi-man ladder match and some pure wrestling match for AJ (vs Balor, Joe, or Nakamura).

Do you have an idea?

Thanks and happy holidays.

​I dunno, I just don’t see Cena in a big role this year because of all his outside stuff. Rollins/HHH and Brock/Goldberg are pretty much a done deal. The rest, who the hell knows at this point? I don’t think even they have a clear idea. Maybe a bunch of multi-man matches?​

​Well, good to see that Sting is finding a life outside of wrestling. And good luck to the Cowpunchers or whatever their name is.​

”Man i love Aj Styles!!”
I know you do Honey.
”Why?"
Because you love milfs.

She’s a John Cena certified club member.
Have a Nice day.

Ouch. Maybe it’s time AJ got a haircut.

Howdy!

In shocking news from Sunday’s PPV, we have what amounts to an actual storyline of substance for our cruiserweights, as Adrian Neville returned, destroyed Rich Swann, and put the entire division on notice. Let’s see what happens…..tonight!

Let’s watch some wrestling, shall we?

Smackdown
Date: December 20, 2016
Location: Joe Louis Arena, Detroit, Michigan
Commentators: Mauro Ranallo, Tom Phillips, John Bradshaw Layfield, David Otunga

We’re in the home stretch of 2016 and Smackdown is going out with a bang. Tonight we have two title matches and a major match between Luke Harper and Dean Ambrose. It’s unlikely that they’re going to change either the Intercontinental or Smackdown World Title here but stranger things have happened. Let’s get to it.
