The Era eked out the W to close a stellar show Photo Credit: WWE.com Results, stray thoughts, and takeaways Holzerman style from the Clutch City hosted iteration of Takeover just as soon as I note I was on the Patrick Clark Bandwagon half a year ago. .. Results: Lars Sullivan pinned Kassius Ohno after the Freak Accident side spinebuster. Aleister Black pinned Velveteen Dream following a Black Mass...but did say his name after the match. Ember Moon won the vacant NXT Women's World Championship and became the sixth different woman to earn that honor by pinning Nikki Cross after an Eclipse that also felled Peyton Royce. Andrade "Cien" Almas became the 12th different man to win the NXT World Championship, pinning Drew McIntyre after Zerlina Vega snuck in for a basement rana driver and he followed up with a rope-hung version of his hammerlock DDT. the Undisputed Era beat SAnitY as well as the team of Roderick Strong and the Authors of Pain when Adam Cole (BAY BAY) pinned Eric ...

Stallion, Jay, and Reed made a bit of history Saturday night Photo Credit: Dylan Hales So the biggest trios tournament on American soil this year took place Saturday night, and by all accounts, it was, as the kids say, a hoot. The Viking War Party and the Carnies continued their war, Gunner Miller had another showcase singles match, and after the event, I assume much cheesecake was consumed at the City Cafe. That being said, all events need to have winners, and a trio of lads from the St. Louis area decided they were going to be the ones taking home the first ever Scenic City Trios mantel, specifically, two of Michael Elgin's proteges and an old barn owl from the Submission Squad. Team Glory Pro, featuring inaugural Crown of Glory Champion "Hot Fire" Myron Reed, former Anarchy Championship Wrestling Champion Curt Stallion, and multiple former titleholder Gary Jay came, saw, and conquered Chattanooga. Their final test was the Nightmare Mob, featuring Powerbomb TV Independe...

Max Smashmaster will be looking to end Mike Quackenbush, once and for all Photo Credit: Scott Finkelstein It's the weekend, baby! You know what that means, time to drink precisely one beer and dial 911  wrestling is happening, and it's happening all around this great world. I'm going to highlight three shows which I think will be of most interest. Of course, I'm only one person. You can check out which shows are coming up possibly in your area via Cagematch . Anyway, go to, if you can, these great shows that may be happening in your area, on television/YouTube/streaming, or for later consumption via VOD, DVD, or whatever other means one uses to consume wrestling at a later date: Chikara Silence in the Library, Dark Water, and Kill the Moon Tonight, Tomorrow, and Sunday (11/17-19), Kennebunk Elementary School, Kennebunk, ME (Friday, 7:30 PM local), Pentucket Lake School, Haverhill, MA (Saturday, 3 PM local), and the Old Country Banquet Hall, Enfield, CT (Sunday, 2 PM lo...

McMahon should probably not talk on RAW anymore until she's ready to bump Photo Credit: WWE.com Wrestling is storytelling; I'm pretty sure even the most intensely antagonistic groups towards each other in this culture war can agree on that. In any story, every beat, every plot point, everything a character says has to have a point, a purpose, or else it can and should be edited out. Whether it be foreshadowing, catalyst for action, comic relief, exposition, or some other reason that can be justifiably defended, each element has to serve some kind of end. So it's not only fair to ask why certain people do certain things during a three hour telecast of Monday Night RAW, it's pretty much essential. In that effect, what is the point of Stephanie McMahon coming out and degrading various people on the RAW roster whenever she appears? The knee-jerk answer is that "she's a heel, duh," which, I get it to an extent. McMahon gets heat, so of course, that might seem  ...

Flair is an upgrade over Neidhart, but not nearly as big as Styles is over Mahal Photo Credit: WWE.com It's Twitter Request Line time, everyone! I take to Twitter to get questions about issues in wrestling, past and present, and answer them on here because 140 characters can't restrain me, fool! If you don't know already, follow me @tholzerman , and wait for the call on Wednesday to ask your questions. Hash-tag your questions #TweetBag , and look for the bag to drop Thursday afternoon (most of the time). Without further ado, here are your questions and my answers: What�s a better upgrade, from Brock/Jinder to Brock/AJ or Alexa/Nattie to Alexa/Charlotte? #TweetBag � Star of Savage (@StarOfSavage) November 15, 2017 Both upgrades are significant, but while Charlotte Flair replacing Nattie Neidhart takes that match from a D to perhaps a B-minus, replacing Jinder Mahal with AJ Styles takes that match from a sure F potentially to an A depending on if Brock Lesnar is Good Brock or...
