Elimination Chamber 2010

[the opening video package did a very good job both setting up how dangerous this match would be and also how desperate the 12 men would be to win it]

WWE chamber: a very smart field here with some good storytelling chances and a lot of people who should have good chemistry; more good setup for the mania legacy 3 way; i also loved how kofi got payback vs dibase but then sold well for shemaus; the finish didnt have alot to it but overall a pretty solid chamber (3 stars)

Cena/batista: angle to setup their mania match (NR)

Drew/kane: i forgot how awesome his broken dreams song was; it just missed the mark on being exciting crowd was dead for it; and although i liked some of drews submission work it wasnt sold very well; creative ending though (2.25 stars)

Womens tag: they just hadnt gotten to the point yet where anything much was watchable in this division of wwe (NR)

{that miz/MVP promo was pretty funny to me}

Miz/MVP: i loved what i think is the finale of this mini feud to open 2010 as they had boat loads of intensity and chemistry i just wish we had got a less controversial conclusion with miz winning clean to really put him over (3.5 stars)

World title chamber: i love the mix of old and future rivals in here like the wwe chamber should make for a fun match; that rey/punk segment was a whole lot of fun like their matches usally are; the rey/jerchio/morrison segment was good and i loved how well they put over morrison with him pinning rey; its kind of surprising that jerchio/taker have never had a proper match on ppv (they worked pretty well together here); good shocking moment with the shawn thing (him handing the title to his greatest rival just to get the mania match); overall i would say a better chamber than the opener with tons of great stuff (4 stars)

{overall a show that setup its mania feuds well although the drew/kane match made it where maybe it wasnt quite as good as the rumble that year}

TLC 2020

Drew/miz/styles: I really can't say that miz added much to this but everything before he tried to cash in was strong with good violence and that leg work ans selling being strong also (3.5 stars) banks/carmella: I don't usually think of carmella matches as good but can honestly say this was her best match of this entire marathon that I've done as they really made me believe that she had a chance and her and banks worked amazingly well together (3.5 stars) newday/hurtbusiness: this was great fast paced action combined with amazing drama as these two teams work very well together (4 stars) Womens tag titles: pretty run of the mill forumla stuff but it seemed like a big deal when the titles changed hands and everyone enjoyed it so (2.75 stars) {roman/owens was skippable with the usual eyeroll worthy not only cant get win on his own cant even control a match on his own that would make alot of the 2020s unwatchable} Wyatt/orton: it was good for what it was with two evil beings t...

Extreme rules 2019

{opener was a skip} Usos/revival: a fun but run of the mill tag match between teams who did work quite well together (3 stars) Cesaro/black: this was a great hard hitting sprint with some awesome counter wrestling also (4 stars) {handicap matches are always a skip for me} Braun/lashley: while i do feel like braun could have sold his supposed injuries alot better and more consistently i cant deny this was a very fun battle of the beasts style match with the right anount of intensity and right winner (3.5 stars) Sd tag title 3 way: i honestly forgot new day won here thats cool in terms of the match it was all standard multi team affair but alot of fun moments throughout for sure (3.25 stars) Ricochet/styles:a hard match for me to grade as matches with interference like this one had usally automatically get lower scores or go into dud category but i cant really do that here because take away the prematch stuff and ending and this was some really strong workrate between the two (3 stars) J...

Survior series 2020

Mens elimination tag: I mean there were enough guys here who had chemistry with each other to make ita good match but at the same time the one sided nature of this match in terms of eliminations really limitshow highly I can think of this match (3 stars) Profits/newday: they just had an amazing competeive match with surpisngly awesome chemsitry for a first time meeting and it really put over the profits strongly (4.25 stars) {zayn/lashley was a squash} Banks/askua: they just had a simple competive back and forth with alot of amazing drama as I had no idea which way this would go (4 stars) {womens elimination tag was a skip} Roman/drew: the last clean roman match before his matches became unwatchable and what do you know it was great one as him and drew work so well together and they created alot of awesome drama (4.25 stars) [I have to put this show in the great tier as there was only in truly skippable match and 3 out of 4 of the most watchable ones hit the 4+ star for me]
