Summerslam 2019

 Lynch/natayla: i love the idea of it being a war and the trash talk to make it super personal; a hidden gem match imo as they had good intensity and smart use of setting up for and selling each others submission attempts (5 stars)

{goldberg/ziggler was a sqaush}

{ricochet/styles was a skip}

Bayley/moon: no real storyline here and i dont think i ever bought into moon winning but i did love the in ringwork and chemsirty plus how good of a showcase it was for both women (3 stars)

{owens/shane was a skip}

Trish/flair: it took a while to get going but when did this match did it was an awesome battle of the eras with trish looking much better than i expected (4 stars)

Kofi/orton: yeah the ending was very lame but once it got going i would struggle to truly call this a bad match just not as good as one would have wanted from these two (3 stars)

{wyatt/balor was a skip}

Rollins/lesnar: they deserve credit for doing more finsher fest rather than the standard suplex city and i loved the excitement they created and the storytelling that it took alot to slay the beast again for rollins (3.5 stars)

{a very interesting show in terms of where to put it in my tier list for that year as close to half the show was skippable but it did have two standout womens matches and a couple of matches that were fine with a pretty good main event i feel like those two womens matches help lift it to goos tier but all the skippable matches prevent it from being great}

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...

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]
