The Man and The Boss Raise The Bar
At Hell in a Cell, The Man Becky Lynch and The Boss Sasha Banks beat the holy hell out of each other inside hell in a cell. Damn did both women deliver in the second-ever women’s hell in a cell match in WWE history.
I’ve seen some good and bad cell matches in WWE history, this one has changed the game. Three years ago, Banks and Charlotte Flair competed in the first-ever women’s hell in a cell match. I thought at that time that they raised the bar even for the men, Lynch and Banks have broken the glass ceiling.
There are times when the WWE Universe chants “This is Awesome” and I 100% agree with them this was one of those times. Lynch and Banks used kendo sticks, ladders, steel chairs, and yes even a table. The maneuvers performed off of the cell or into the cell were brutal, sadistic, and FREAKIN fantastic. The Man delivered a Bexploder to Banks through the cell. Banks executed a jaw-dropping Meteora from the ring apron to Lynch into a ladder.
I loved every single part of this match, Lynch had no experience in the cell but she felt right at home. Both competitors kept choosing and organizing the furniture to torture their rivals even more. After consecutive near-falls and no end in sight, Banks threw chair after chair to make a bed with and looked to deliver one more painful move to Lynch.
The Man kept fighting and countered into a Massive Bexploder onto the bed of chairs. Then Lynch locked in the Dis-Arm-Her and Banks was forced to tap-out to successfully retain her Raw Women’s Championship.

Erick Rowan and Luke Harper Obliterate Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan–The Yes Man Is Back
The biggest question going into this tornado tag match was if Bryan was always in cohorts with Rowan and Harper with the vicious attacks on Roman Reigns. Was he the man who orchestrated Rowan to take out The Big Dog behind the scenes, and would he turn on Roman and turn the match into a three-on-one brutal onslaught?
The answer was no Bryan wasn’t involved in the attacks but, what the WWE Universe did receive was a fantastic high-octane action and car-crash chaotic match. Bryan and Roman started off the match wiping out Rowan and Harper on the outside. Quickly the former Bludgeon Brothers took out Reigns to begin a two-on-one beatdown to the helpless Bryan.
Roman recovered and dropped Harper off the top rope with a massive uppercut which gave Bryan the opening to lock in the LeBell Lock but Harper broke it up. Rowan and Harper continued overpowering Bryan and keeping him grounded. The Big Dog finally went on the attack decking Harper with his signature clotheslines in the corner. Roman was preparing to deliver a thunderous Spear until Rowan pulled him to the floor.
Outside the monstrous Rowan took apart the barricade and blasted Roman that sent him flying into the stands. Both Rowan and Harper took apart the commentary table and attempted to deliver another massive Chokeslam but Bryan hit a beautiful Hurricanrana and Roman hit a THUNDEROUS SPEAR through the table!
Bryan brought Harper back in the ring and delivered his trifecta of corner dropkicks and delivered a middle-rope Powerbomb for a near-fall. Roman came back in to deliver the finishing touches with a Superman Punch and a MASSIVE SPEAR for the victory. Following the match, both competitors hugged it out in a huge show of respect.

With the 2019 Draft coming up on Friday Night Smackdown, there’s no telling where Roman or Bryan will be.
There was a lot of uncertainty going into the pay-per-view since WWE had only announced four of the matches on the card which made the show feel special and different from past years. These are my takeaways from the pay-per-view what are yours? I would love to hear from you! @King42087 and remember #alwaysuseyourhead

Chris King: Is Brock Lesnar Truly Retired?
Brock Lesnar retired at WWE WrestleMania 42, right? Are we totally sure? Chris King asks…
Brock Lesnar retired at WWE WrestleMania 42, right? Are we totally sure? Chris King asks…
At WrestleMania 42, ‘The Beast Incarnate’ Brock Lesnar took off his boots and gloves following his loss to Oba Femi. Lesnar has done it all inside of his twenty-four-year career in professional wrestling. He’s a ten-time WWE Champion and former UFC Heavyweight Champion, and he’s one who ended The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania.
While Lesnar was in the ring, he was visibly overwhelmed with emotion and crying while he thanked the fans in his own way. The Beast even threw up an x to signal to Paul Heyman, his longtime friend and advocate, that this was not scripted and was real. There had been rumors that Lesnar and Oba were supposed to have a series of matches before everything went down at Mania.
‘The Career Killer’ Gunther was doing Heyman’s bidding as he faced Seth Rollins for a favor. For a while now since Gunther retired Goldberg, John Cena, and AJ Styles, the rumor has been Gunther was set to retire Lesnar in his hometown at this year’s SummerSlam event. There’s been no confirmation if Lesnar is truly retired, but on this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, we saw Heyman talking with General Manager Nick Aldis. Later that night following Rhodes’ match against the debuting Ricky Saints, Gunther choked out the WWE Champion. Could this be the favor from Heyman?
I know in the world of professional wrestling we live by the mantra of “never say never,” but what if Lesnar is actually retired and this was WWE’s way of shutting down those rumors about Gunther and Lesnar? What if Gunther’s next program is chasing after the WWE title, and where is Randy Orton at in all of these plans? There are so many questions that need to be answered, hopefully soon!

Chris King: Defend The Intercontinental Championship At Backlash!
With WWE Backlash upon us, Chris King wants to see Penta defend the Intercontinental Championship in Tampa!
With WWE Backlash upon us, Chris King wants to see Penta defend the Intercontinental Championship in Tampa!
This year’s annual Backlash showcase is only a few days away, and while there are many big matches announced, one that definitely should be isn’t on the card. In my opinion, outside of Roman Reigns/Jacob Fatu and Seth Rollins/Bron Breakker, the Intercontinental Championship scene has been stellar over the last month.
Penta has been an excellent champion, especially after his triumphant title defense in a ladder match against JeVon Evans, Rusev, Dragon Lee, and the Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania 42. Their ladder match at Mania was one of the best that WWE has produced in a while.
The momentum never stopped, as on the post-Mania episode of Monday Night Raw, ‘All Ego’ Ethan Page made his debut and was quickly inserted into the Intercontinental title scene. Page had a fantastic showing against his longtime NXT rival Evans and picked up a big win in his debut match thanks to an assist from Rusev.
All Ego immediately joined forces with ‘The Bulgarian Brute’ Rusev, who was also vying for the Intercontinental Title in his own right. On this week’s episode of Raw, Page and Rusev defeated Evans and Penta. All Ego pinned the champion, making a huge statement and putting him one step closer to getting a title shot. For the past few weeks I’ve been anxiously waiting to see if WWE was going to add this incredible fatal four-way match for the Intercontinental Championship, but it hasn’t happened yet.
As much as the WWE Universe enjoys witnessing great matches on free television, I truly believe all four superstars deserve the chance to showcase their talents on the PLE. While Penta has done a terrific job as the intercontinental champion, it’s time for a fresh face to hold the prestigious title. Page would make a great braggadocious heel that would help elevate the Intercontinental Championship to new heights!
