Vengeance 2011

Airboom vs Ziggler/swagger: fantastic hot opener that had amazing chemistry (they met at previous ppv) (4 stars)

Ziggler/ryder: a fun enough sprint to plant the seeds for ryders eventual win later that year (3 stars)

{divas title was still skippable}

Christian/sheamus: this was pretty much their usual match it did match the intensity of the story with sheamus being as angry as he should but thats about the only add on (3.25 stars)

Awesometruth vs punk/hhh: the work rate and storytelling were all largely fine to good but i dont think it really needed to go as long as it did  and tbh the ending was overbooked in a way no reason for nash to be out when he did (2.5 stars)

Orton/cody: they missed the chance to have a better than good match as it just lacked the intensity that the feud should have had and the intrefrence was just too much; they still had good chemistry but this wasnt the best effort ive probally seen from them (2.25 stars)

Show/henry: they had a fairly decent power match but i just dont know that it had the intensity that the feud called for i did appreciate the unquie ending though (2.5 stars)

Cena/ADR:  they clearly had good chemistry and i enjoyed the creative spots they came up with i would say the ending was overbooked but considering what happens at survior series i can live with it (3.75 stars)

{on the whole this was a fairly mixed bag of a show with it peaking at the opener and not reallt getting near a great level again until the main event probally the most inconsistent and weakest event of 2011 to that point}

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]
