 Top 5 Times WWE Pissed Off TV Censors.

Intro.

WWE and TV Censors have had a varied mix of history. Some countries don't tend to look at Major issues, but when it comes to how things could get copied, or incidents that go against taste and decentcy, this is called censorship at it's most honest, and baffling in many cases. You could say that the WWE has always braun the line between these two metrics.

5. Mohammed Hassan.

From his debut in late 2004 this rifled up fans in my home country the UK. Whole segments would get cut from Smackdown broadcasts by Sky Sports. This is due to the fact that Ofcom, a company that govern all TV Channels over here have rules against any form of hate speech, and this is what makes these segments worrying if you were a fan at this time. And then you add in what happened on july 7th 2005, and after this the character was gone.

4. DX Segments Various.

Were do I begin with the attitude era. DX were leading the charge for anarchy, and outright over sexualised chaos. Fans loved DX, the WWE Office loved DX, TV networks, well not so much. The USA Network, and. Sky Sports weren't happy. This is mainly because the WWE were doing there own version of humour that was catered around race, and language. Here in the UK that is a big no no.

3. Channel 4 Didn't Have A Clue What They Were Buying.

In late 1999 a deal was struck between WWE and the UK Broadcaster channel 4 to take four of the PPV's, and Sunday Night Heat. This deal would last for two years, the only thing is the deal was for four years, this was cut short due to Royal Rumble 2000, and a pentioner stripping off. I wish that I made this up, but I didn't. The standards were then changed after this. PPV's were shown on a delay which give them the chance to make cuts when need be. I thought this was a bit hypocritical of Channel 4, given the fact that 6 years before this they showed the first gay kiss before the watershed on Brookside, and also commissioned Brass Eye, so this was pointless.

2. Wee Wee To the Face.

Pandemic Wrestling was certainly a place in time that I don't want to revisit. So this segment from June 2020 managed to annoy Fox, who at the time had the rights to show Smackdown in the USA. The segment that featured Sheamus who tried to make Jeff Hardy drink a beer, given his issues with alcohol, wasn't a good move by the company. Sheamus took the supposed beer to the face, I say the word supposed because it was actually hardy's piss. This angered Fox because they felt that this went way too far.

1. He Who Shall Not Be Named Makes Trish Stratus Bark Like A Dog.

I'm just going to say it. I despise anyone who acts on issues like coersive control. This segment was so bad that it was cut out completely from broadcast in the build up to Mania 17 by Sky Sports here in the UK. This is arguably the worst segment that WWE have ever produced, and just think of the milage that you can cover.

Top 5 UFC PPV's That I Go Back To Nowadays.

Intro.

Writing this list stumped me, because As I sit here on a Monday morning, I had to dig beneath the surface of my brain, and think what are my favourite ever UFC PPV's. These events are the ones that I still watch to this day on DVD. From great fights to stand out moments, these PPV's live rent free in my brain.

5. UFC 79 Nemesis.

This card is awesome. From the burning heat that was Rich Clementi vs Mevin. Rameau Sokoudjou, and Lyoto Machida reminding fans that Pride was still alive in it's own spirit. This show was also the coming out party for GSP after he beat Matt Hughes for the UFC Interim Welterweight Championship, and then there's Chuck Liddell vs Vanderlai Silva, a fight that stands up today as one of the best MMA 3 round fights ever in my opinion. This was a steller card, that came complete with loads of promise, and it delivered.

4. UFC 132.

From Tito Ortiz shocking the world, and submitting Ryan Baber. Chris Leben knocking out Wanderlai Silva, and then there's the 5 round war that Urijah Faber and Dominck Cruz had for the UFC Bantamweight Championship. This fight was an excellent go around, that showcased the bitter distain that these two had for one another. The build was promoted perfectly, as it brought the novice fan into their history from Their days in the WEC. This is one hell of a PPV.

3. UFC 91.

Any PPV that features Kenny Florian, and Joe Daddy Stevenson, and. Gabriel Gonzaga vs Josh Hendricks go to war in seperate fights is always a good time to me. Even though watching Brock Lesnar in our year of 2025 isn't a good sight, in 2008 we were living in the Brock era, and this proved to be a very profitable time for the UFC. 

2. UFC 150.

From Justin Lawrence facing an up and coming fighter named Max Holloway. Donald Cowboy Cerone facing one of his former team mates Melvin Guillard, in what was a steller performance from the Cowboy, and the second fight of the year for Frankie Edgar, and. Benson Smooth Henderson for the UFC Lightweight Championship Crown out did their UFC 142 war. Frankie in his post fight interview with Joe Rogan just said everything that you need to know about the man. He's a true warrior, and the fact that he left his heart in the cage is something that speaks to me in my day to day life. You've got to keep going, no matter what punches get thrown at you.

1. UFC 92 The Ultimate.

As the way that UFC New Year shows go, this is up there for my money, as one of the best that they've ever committed to producing. Quinton Rampage Jackson giving Wanderlai Silva a Nasty KO. Frank Mir's comeback tour continuing after he beat Minatauro Nogueira, and then there's Sugar Rashad Evans beating Forrest Griffin to become the new UFC Light Heavyweight Championship. This was an elevated card, that delivered from a fight, and fan perspective.

The Undertakers Last Ride Docu Series Top 5 Deep Dive.

Intro.

If you take your minds back to 2020, the world was in a differing state, the pandemic had taken a grip on the world, and how many compan'ys conducted there business. The WWE however ploughed through with all of there plans, including releasing content for there now defunct WWE Network. This release was centred around The Deadman, and the final years of his in ring career. I didn't write anything about this at the time, because I didn't have the confidence to have my own platform, but given the fact this years Survivor Series wrapped up last weekend, I thought this would be a good idea to go back and take a look at this series. 35 Years of The Undertaker. Were has the time gone.

 Episode 1. Greatest Fear.

This was a bold way to start of the series. The episode was focused around the importance of family relationships, that are tinged with blind loyalty. Mark opened up about the protection of his character, whilst handling the riggers of the road. His Mania streak does get covered, and how it ended at the dismay of the fans. His concussion gets talked about to a degree, as he  brings not remembering anything from that day. This was then rubbished by He Who Shall Not Be Named during his Netflix Docu Series. This says to me that mental blocks are real, and should be treated seriously. The issue of mental blocks can also be used to describe how he felt after his Match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33. The moment when Taker took off his gear in the ring would symbalise the end of his career, or so we thought. I thought this was a fed pilled example of blind loyalty, being put together with how the riggers of the road can leave a talent feeling that maybe there time has come.

Episode 2. Redemption.

The real life Ramifications of Mania 33, and how Taker was going to bounce back, became the backbone of this episode. It's clear that Taker has issues with self doubt, and it was evidently clear watching. His wife Michelle Mccool appears across the series as a talking head, and doesn't really offer up much in terms of analysis, but she does give is the opinion from the side of a loved one. Taker felt guilt after his Match with Roman, because he didn't think that he gave his all, this lead to him apologising to him backstage at Mania 34, after he beat John Cena. His Build to facing Cena at Mania 34 would get overlooked on TV due to the Tag Build for Kurt Angle and Ronda Rousey vs HHH and Stephanie Mcmahon, but when you take a look at how he prepared for a 5 minute Match,  I could tell that this wasn't the end. Episode 2 is stark reminder how hard work can bring you back to the forefront, but leave you feeling with the question. How Much do I have to give.

Episode 3. Feeling Empty.

This episode was centred around the relationship between Taker and HHH, and. HBK. Their Mania Matches still stand up today, and prove the point that bonds aren't built, they're created by pure magic and grit. This was WWE at it's finest for this period, and I loved it. Fast Forward to 2018, and Taker is headlining Madison Square Garden as part of WWE's Summer U.S Tour, hearing him reflect on this times in this building was a fascinating insight into how he loves the industry. He was backstage talking, and giving advice to the younger talent. HHH and Takers Match from Super Showdown 2018 from Sydney Australia gets covered in a highlight package, and this was for the best, because this match was terrible. What came after this was WWE's second trip to Saudi Arabia, and DX vs The Brothers Of Destruction. To say that this Match was a car crash, was all the participants being nice, because was horrorific. This would have an effect on Taker. Love for an industry that you work in can be seen as devotion, but in trurh it's not always your friend, and it can hurt you.

4. The Battle Within.

Hearing from those who aren't with us Today. Bray Wyatt, and. William Moody, who played the role of Paul Bearer up until 2004, added an sense of emotional depth, that the previous eps were missing. Seeing the old footage from the WWE archives, felt like I stepped back in time in the best way, as Bruce Pritchard talked about the person Mark Callaway. Fear of missing out is all real, and can't ignored. Taker was backstage at Mania 35, and you could see it written all over his face, he wanted to be out there, but he wasn't needed. This was a sensible move from WWE to keep him close, as the fear of an upstart company was looming. His Match Against Goldberg from Super Showdown 2019 in Saudi Arabia was covered in all of it's terrfying form. The moment Goldberg gives Taker that Jack Knife Powerbomb still to this day is something that WWE are trying to forget about. He left the ring on his own accord, but when you look at the facts, he was only two inches away from something awful happening. No Pro Wrestling show,  or moment should come above someones own health. This led to the formation of The Graveyard Dogs. Taker teamed up with Roman Reigns to face Shane Mcmahon, and Drew Mcintyre, at 2019 Extreme Rules PPV. The Match ended up being one of my favourite Matches from that year, and a reminder that he still has it. It was known that after this Match, he told He Who Shall Not Be Named, that he was done, and he was told that the company would follow his lead. This episode is a reminder that, if you're done then you've got the right to go out the way that you see fit.

5.  Episode Revelation.

In November 2019 Taker appeared on Steve Austins Broken Skulls Sessions. And he hinted that he might not be done. AJ Styles watched this, and that's what gave birth to the idea of the Boneyard Match. But what was around the corner caused this stipulation, and how WWE would run its business for the next 16 months. The Covid 19 Pandemic was a tough time globally, and this made WWE change its plans going forward, gone were the international tours that had been booked, and Mania at Raymond James Stadium in Florida was put back a year. Mania 36 came from the behind closed doors at there own Performance Centre in Orlando. This meant for certain Matches they had to think outside the box. Before WWE filmed the Boneyard Match. Taker would have to deal with the loss of his brother, and Michelle Mccool lost her nephew. The Match with AJ was filmed on Location, and would take a night to film. It turned out to be an entertaining romp that stole the weekend for me. As Troubador by George Strait played out in the closing moments with images of the past, Taker could be heard saying that he contempt with being done, and this was the right way to conclude this show. Taker got to ride off the way that he wanted, and that's the most important thing. And to think this started off with a phonecall in 1990, that started with the words. Is this my Undertaker.

 AEW Dynamite Review 4.12.2025

Samoa Joe And Eddie Kingston Segment.

I loved this segment. So all I will say is this. This was no notes perfect to me. Next week at Winter Is Coming is going to be awesome.

Pac vs Kazuchika Okada Continental Classic.

This was a lofi quality Match, that delivered on all counts. Both men showed that they've got excellent chemistry, and this gave birth for the story to be told. I thought this was glorious, and a good way to kick start the show. Okada got the win by roll up.

Mark Briscoe Segment.

I love Mark Briscoe. He will face Daniel Garcia when AEW Visits Cardiff in just over to quote 9 days.

Ricochet Segment.

Ricochet Has been one of AEW's unsung heros this year, from wanting to murder people with scissors, to being a menace to The Hurt Syndicate. I love this guy.

Kyle Fletcher vs Kevin Knight Continental Classic.

So far the Continental Classic has over delivered. This Match is the perfect example of this. Both men kicked out of Liger Bombs, coast to coasts, and. Brainbusters, as they laid everything out bare, just so they could create magic. Kyle got the win, and in the aftermath Kyle, and. Don Callis cut promos, but due to the ad break, we didn't get to hear what Kyle said, because this was centred around Don and what he thought of The Young Bucks. Complete with references to puberty. The Bucks came out and attacked the family. Kazuchika Okada gave Matt Jackson a rainmaker, and this was when Jurassic Express made the save. Don grabbed hold of Matt Jackson and tried to gauge his eyes out, that was until Kenny Omega helped out his Elite family. Be still my wayward heart.

Mercedes Mone Segment.

Mercedes will get another belt at ROH Final Battle this Friday. I don't think that many fans care if i'm honest.

Hardcore Holiday Deathmatch AEW Womens Tag Team Tournament Semi-finals. Megan Bayne And Marina Shafir vs The Timeless Lovebombs.

I loved this. If you want to have fun at 10am in the morning, then just stick this Match on. From humerous weapon spots that had me howling. Toni and Mina having awesome dance moves on entrance, to the return of Santa Lufer claus. This was great, and a lot of fun. Timeless Lovebombs got the win, and will now face The Babes Of Wrath to become the first ever AEW Womens Tag Team Champions next week.

Dark Order vs The Opps AEW Trios Championship.

I didn't like this It felt flat, and extremely boring. But it's great to see Jon Silver back on Dynamite. You love to see it. The Opps retained. Hangman Adam Page then called Hook and Shibata for a Match next week, and he will have a mystery partner.

Okada vs Takeshita.

This Match has legs, and I think we could get the second one at All In next year. I need this Match in my life.

Claudio Castagnoli vs Jon Moxley Continental Classic.

For my money this is the best that the Continental Classic Match so far in the tournament. It was a bloodsoaked masterstroke in storytelling. I've said this before that the downfall of Jon Moxley from the deathriders is the best thing that AEW has going for it at the moment, and this Match furthered my point. Claudio got the win, as this Match was heading to be a time limit draw. This was excellent.

Overview Of AEW Dynamite.

This is one of the best episodes of Dynamite this year in my opinion, as the continental Classic continues to grow. This weeks AEW Dynamite is a must watch.

This weeks AEW Dynamite is a high 9/10.

My Top 5 WWE Survivor Series Moments.

Intro.

What are the best moments in WWE Survivor Series history, this was a question that ran through my mind. I have my favourites, and I have those that make me think, well that was a thing wasn't it. This is a fun list that delves into the world of Survivor Series.

5. The Montreal Screwjob.

Ok I have to get this one out of the way first, because multiple writers over the years have dined out on this for nearly 30 years. It was a seismic moment in Pro Wrestling history, and a matter that is very well documented. Bret and Shawns relationship these days seems to be better, but back in 1997, it was a different world.

4. Kurt Angle Fools The Undertaker.

The WWF Championship Match at the year 2000 event was funny. Have you ever seen 2 Kurt Angles, well if you stayed up in here in the UK, your eyes weren't weary at 2am, because you most definately saw 2 lookalikes of Kurt Angle. The Match wasn't up to much, but this did make me laugh.

3. Stone Cold Steve Austin Gets Run Over.

Survivor Series 1999 was the end of a good run for Stone Cold Steve Austin, he had completely burnt himself out, and needed time off to go and get neck surgery. The angle in which he was ran over, would then get used as the golden example in how to do a Pro Wrestling who done it. I remember watching this at the time, and going into school the day after, and this was all anyone could talk about.

2. Ric Flair vs HHH Have A Bloodbath.

This would signal the end of two eras in my opinion. The first one was HHH's reign of terror, and the second one was the Evolution era, both weren't very profitable for the company when you look at the TV ratings during this time period. The Match was an all out war, that came with heavy blade jobs, after what we got at Taboo Tuesday, which took place just three weeks before this show.

1. The Return Of Cm Punk.

After the events of real glass gate from AEW's UK debut at Wembley Stadium. Cm Punk was let go by Tony Khan, after he had an altercation with Jack Perry. This would start the speculation of could Punk return to the company that he walked out on in 2014. So at the end of the mens Wargames Match in 2023, he returned. He walked out to a sold out All State arena in Chicago, to the uproar of an excited crowd, who were eager to see there hero all night. This was the architectual blue print for how to build excitement.

My Top 5 Thoughts From Monday Night Raw.

5. Wade And Joe In With The Fans.

This was irresponsible. WWE has come under fire in recent months for fan interactions, and how fans handle themselves. I thought this was a bit in bad taste. I know I can't talk for everyone, and this is just my opinion, but really.

4. Jey Uso vs LA Knight John Cena Last Time Semi-Final.

I liked this. The Match storyline was mainly centred around how these two have interracted over the past few months. The physicality was great, and this allowed for their chemistry to shine. Knight got the win, and then jey lost his temper, and all I had to say about this was. 4 letters one word. Baby.

3. The Judgement Day Are Reunited And It Feels So Good.

I loved this. I think this was a good night for the Judgement Day. Dom turned up in his real dads old renta car, and then later in the evening he welcomed back his kayfabe lover Liv Morgan. He insulted John Cena, whilst reminding me that he's the greatest Luchador of all time. I loved this. Just look at it this way. When Dom debuted in the Judgement Day I couldn't stand him, but now he's one of my favourite things on WWE TV, so that says one thing. Anything can happen in the space of three years.

2. Natalya Is An Army Colonel.

Natalya acted like the Colonel from Stanley Kubricks Full Metal Jacket. Maxxine Dupri is going to snap at some point.

1 Gunther vs Solo Sikoa John Cena Last Time Is Now Tournament.

I think that Gunther has to be in with a shout, when all the best lists come out for the end of this year. His Matches have always gone from good to excellent. For a TV Match, this was something special, and it over delivered. Gunther will meet LA Knight on Friday Smackdown in the final.

Top 5 WWE Survivor Series Debuts.

Intro.

In the years since Survivor Series debuted it has became known for its multi-man Matches, and it's debuts. The second one is what were going to looking at today, given the fact that at the time of writing Survivor Series Wargames has just wrapped. I  thought taking a trip down memoery lane is in order.

5. Blue Chipper Survivor Series.

Appearing on team Babyface as I call them led by Marc Mero.  The team also featured Jake The Snake Roberts, and The Stalker. ( 1996 Fed was a real thing ) Blue Chipper as Jim Ross called on Commentary was better known as Rocky Maivia, who's better known as The Rock, during his debut, you could tell that he was green as hell, and that's not a bad thing because the established stars protected him, and he could learn from their roles.

4. The Undertaker Survivor Series.

If you could take a trip back to 1990, and remember anything from this event, then it's the debut of The Deadman, being part of Ted Biase's millionaire team. He would go on to have a steller career from a fan aspect, and from the view of longevity, has actually stood up well.

3. Kurt Angle Survivor Series 1999.

I call this his actual debut, because when you take in just what was going to come throughout the following year.Kurts debut against Shawn Stasiak, might've been a dud from the look of Match quality, when you look at how long term plans were going to play out, then this worked.

2. Scott Steiner Survivor Series 2002.

Take your mind back to November 2002. WCW had been out of business for nearly 20 months, and some of the external contracts from Time Warner had, or were coming to an end, and the contracts that the WWE wanted to bring over, had been moved to the company. Scott was one of the last names to be brought over. His time in the company would be met with contention, and an overall bad feeling, mainly because quite a few of this Matches stalled in quality.

1. Sting SAurvivor Series 2014

It's Stiiiiiiiiiiiiing. But without his soul. Look I love the man known as sting, however his debut at the 2014 Survivor Series, did signal the end of the WCW brand 13 years after it's official end. The Wrestlemania 31 Match against HHH was a waste of time, and a classic example of a pissing contest.

 WWE Survivor Series 2025 Review 30.11.2025.

Intro.

It's Winter. It's freezing outside, and last night, I stayed up to watch this years WWE Survivor Series Wargames, and as I got into the show. I started to think, as I shoved more steak and Pepper Seabrook crisps down my throat, was this. Does this Match stipulation need to be removed, or tweaked? This is a question that isn't going to go away, and i'll get into this a bit later on, because to me, last night felt like a look at were WWE is heading, without telling you anything at all. Basically this felt like Pro Wrestlings answer to an episode of Seinfield, because this was a PLE about nothing. ( well kind of )

Superstars Seen Showing Up To Work.

All the ladies from the womens Wargames Match showed, and. Dirty Dom followed shortly after.

Womens Wargames Match.

If I had to pick from both Wargames Matches this one would win, by head and shoulders. Team Babyface of. Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, AJ Lee, Alexa Bliss, and. Charlotte Flair, beat. The Kabuki Warriors. Nia Jax. Lash Legend, and Becky Lynch. What we got here was a clever look at were the womens division stands at this moment, and the fascinating steps that they could be taking, when heading into the road to Wrestlemania season. This Match was a blast, and even though it did lag, lasting over 50 minutes. I didn't feel the length drag on me. The spots were laid bare. Nia and Lash, chucking Iyo into her team. Rhea coming out dressed up like 1995 Undertaker with that face mask, and the Matches within the Match leading the way when it came to telling the story, this gave way for other spots to breathe, as the anarchy reached it's final stand, when AJ got thev win for her team by submitting Becky. On Friday it was reported by multiple sources, that the end of the mens wargames Match would echo into how Mania gets booked. I think that this is true when you look at the Ladies Match, whilst the mens left me with more questions, than it did answers.

John Cena vs Dirty Dom Mysterio WWE Intercontinental Championship.

This was a shenanigans filled fun ride, but as I watched this. I couldn't help but that this is John Cena's last PLE Match. I get why some fans don't like John, but I do feel, that his passion is palpable, and it shines brightest on these stages. This is going to be missed when he steps away. So if you're a Cena fan, then drink  in as much of this as you can, because when he's gone, he's gone. The Match  fell into parody for me, from real injuries, to Johns Career. I had fun watching this, as I felt that the match delivered on having a fun element. From Raquel, and. Roxanne beating up John, whilst Dom sold a fake injury, that played on real life from this weeks Monday Night Raw. This gave time for a returning Liv Morgan to come out, and play her part in a double cross, that was a bit predictable when looking back, this allowed Dom to get the win, and his belt back. I liked this.

Stephanie Vaquer vs Nikki Bella.

I'm going to honest. I haven't been a big fan of Nikki Bella's heel run. It hasn't hit the ceiling that it should, and this Match acted as the embodyment of this fact. It felt like a TV Match taking place on a PLE. None of this worked, and it felt like a waste of time. Stephanie retained after hitting Nikki with her Cork Screw finisher. This was the lowest point on the card.

The New Day Shameless Promotion.

This whole broadcast was full of shameless promotion, but this was the worst. WWE card, or phone games, just aren't for me.

Attendence Announced.

WWE then announced that they managed to pull in 46.000 in the stadium in San Diego. Yeah I smell bs aswell.

Mens Wargames Match.

This is were I differ with the mens Match. It was aimed to get to night 2 of Mania, whilst others that were involved, have question marks over there heads, case and point. Cody and Punks fallout has started to creep up, as the promise of one of them turning heel is imminent, and with the added drama of Roman Reigns looks promising. The Matches within the Match, acted like an uninspiring movie trailer. The Match felt directionless, and the spots felt forced. As the Match went on. I was left with this question going around my head. Am I going to get excited to see Brock Lesnar vs Bron Breakker or Logan Paul vs Cm Punk, well if i'm honest, no, because I can't see WWE pulling the trigger on their builds, to the point that I get excited, but given what I think of Brock these days, that would be a tall order.  This Match ended  like a piece of bad creative that stank of the old guard with that masked hood. This  was a reminder of when you like the build, and how it dosen't always meet your expectations. Team heel of The Vision. Logan Paul. Brock Lesnar, and. Drew Mcintyre, beat team Babyface. Of The Uso's. Roman Reigns. Cm Punk, and. Cody Rhodes. The next few months are going to be interesting, in the ways that WWE navigate there main event picture. If this was a school report card, it would read, so what's next.

Overview Of WWE Survivor Series Wargames 2025.

Overall I thought this was a fine show, that has left me with more questions than it has answers, and if i'm being honest. All this PLE did was examine just how divided HHH has become when it come to booking his shows.

This Years Survivor Series Wargames 2025 is a middle of the road 7/10.

Top 5 Times WWE Superstars Did Nice Things For Fans.

Intro.

You know that old saying of you never want to meet your heroes, because you may not like the person that you meet. This statement isn't true when it comes to this group of WWE Superstars, this is a collection of some of the nicest moments when WWE Superstars were nice to fans.

5. Bayleys Biggest Fan.

This came in 2015, when Bayley was in NXT, she was on her way out to the ring, and out of nowhere she hugged a young fan, and that young fan is no a stand out on the independent scene, so guys if you treat people right, it can make a real impact on someones life.

4. WWE's Superstars Treatment Of The Ultimate Warriors Kids.

The WWE did a great job covering up the later years of one James Hellwig, due to his actions outside of the ring, but after he passed away in April of 2014 the WWE opened up it arms to his family. Seeing his two daughters hang out with Paige. Natalya, and. Roman Reigns this was a sight that should be spoken about, because inflictions of negativity shouldn't be passed down to the kids.

3. Scott Hall On Jerry Springer.

This was a corner stone in the 1990's when the stigma around aids, and HIV was at a all time high. He met with two kids who have the desease, and he gave them some uplifting, helpful advice, and then gave them his Intercontinental Championship. It's been said that Scott was scared of the repocussions for doing this, but he left with ease after Vince said that he did the right thing, and there would be a new belt waiting for him at the next show.

2. Daniel Bryan Meets Conor The Crusher.

This is a poignant reminder to hold those you love near to you. In 2012 Daniel Bryan met Conor for the first time at  that years Summerslam, this would be a relationship that would come to an end at the end of WrestleMania 30, because as the image of Bryan holding Conor would be partnered with ending his own story coming to an end. Just days after this photo was taken. Conor sadly passed away.

1. John Cena Visits A Fan With Down Syndrome Who Vacated The Ukraine With his Family.

I watched this back recently as research for this list. It's touching very emotional, and a reminder that your dreams can come true, even in the hardest of times. This is just the thing that I have said before. You do not have to like John, but you do have respect his ability to come down to fans level, and make their day better, no matter what they're going through.

AEW Dynamite Review 27.11.2025.

Kyle Fletcher vs Kazuchika Okada Continental Classic.

The Continental Classic is back, and if it keeps giving us fans bangers like this, then it can stay. This Match was a superb, look at how perfect booking can provide great entertainment. Kyle Fletcher got the win. Is Okadas reign starting to slip?

Kenny Omega Segment.

Carry on my wayward heart. It looks like The Elite are back together, and I can't be happier.

AEW Womens Tag Team Tornament Babes Of Wrath vs Sisters Of Sin.

This wasn't for me. I just couldn't connect with this Match. Babes got the win. Please bare in mind i'm writing this with a heavy cold.

Mark Briscoe Segment.

This was caught after his Championship win on Saturday. I liked this. It was no notes perfect.

The Opps Celebration.

This is what I want from My Heel Champion. Samoa Joe came out, and before he could get a word out, he was interrupted by Swerve Strickland, who was dropped off by Prince Nana, and Hangman Adam Page then joined him. Joe ordered Shibata to go and get the scrubs, aka the security, as he laid into the fans. He brought out Hook, and even he got cut off, by an emerging Swerve Strickland, and. Hangman Adam Page. The security came to meet them, and the fight in the fans was excellent. The segment ended with Swerve and Hangman trying to murder people by choking them over the ring ropes. I loved this.

Continental Classic Jon Moxley vs Mascara Dorada.

I loved this. I get that some fans might not have liked this, but when you take a look at this in isolation, this needed to happen. Jon's downfall is by far the best thing in AEW at the moment, so having him win here is the best choice, because you need to rise him up, so he can be taken back down. This is what you call perfect booking. Jon got the win, but what came after felt like a nice fever dream. Timeless Toni Storm walked to the ring, and cut a promo on Jon Moxley and. Marina Shafir, and she was at her funny best. This led to announcement of The Timeless Lovebombs vs Marina Shafir, and Megan Bayne in a Hardcore Holiday DeathMatch. Don't ever change Toni.

Kris Statlander Segment.

Where's Kris Statlander heading. I think she's heading into another Galaxy in quick speed.

Continental Classic Kevin Knight vs Darby Allin.

This was another banger of a Match, that left me feeling suprised. I'm a fan of both men, so watching  this Match was fascinating. These two have great chemistry, and it made for awesome viewing. Knight got the win. I loved this.

Continental Classic Claudio Castagnoli vs Orange Cassidy.

So far the Continental Classic has delivered on this broadcast, and this main event was no different. The near falls were put in order to percision, and performed with ease, as this allowed for the story to be told. Claudio got the win. And in the aftermath The Deathriders deatdown Orange Cassidy.

Overview Of AEW Dynamite.

This weeks Dynamite was a solid outing that was focussed around the tournament concept. The Matches delivered, and remained solid throughout.

This weeks Dynamite is a solid 9/10.
