TLC 2014

{i thought the video package of human demolition derby was very well put together so ill be seeing if these matches can live up to that}

Ziggler/harper: they did live up to the opening video package as both men sold well for one another and while they didnt reinvent the wheel the spots they did woild make one cringe; also big man vs little man forumla works well everytime (4.5 stars)

WWE tag titles: mizdow added some good entertainment value even as silly as his gimmick is and the miz had decent enough chemistry and selling for the usos; didnt care for the ending though i just think if ur gonna all in on them being champs let them get what would have been a big clean win for them not that eyerolling dq stuff (3.5 stars)

Show/rowan: while i can admit this was fairly slow at times they did make an effort to come up with creative spots using the stairs {incudling that final pin} and it did let rowan get a good bit of shine looking like shows equal at times (2.75 stars)

Cena/rollins: this was the start of a double edged sword trend for rollins matches in that he could work well with anyone incudling cena but the matches were usally such overbooked messes you had to work hard to find any joy in watching them (1 star)

{divas title was still highly skippable}

Ryback/kane: the crowd was in and out of this but the in ring work was enjoyable enough and they told the story they wanted to very well (3 stars)

{us title was largely a squash}

Ambrose/wyatt: i didnt mind bray winning and this worked as the human demoltion derby they were going for i just think there was a couple of things that couldnhave improved the quailty of it like not having another stupid ending and i think a falls count anywhere match would have been better since they didnt have anything to climb for anyway (3 stars)

{this was an up and down show that had no real consistency to it it wasnt trash as they were some good things on it but the bad/weak stuff prevents it from being a good show}

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]
