Cage def. The Mack in a Falls Count Anywhere Match

I have to agree with the crowd on this one: Holy shit! For a feud that didn't have much build going into this bout, this was beyond awesome. Then again, I can't say I expected anything less when this match was first announced last week because both Cage and The Mack are incredible athletes. The stipulation was perfectly fitting of their similar styles, allowing them to take their heated brawl all over the arena and incorporate a number of sweet spots that included tables, trash cans and other extreme objects. The cinder block finish reminded me a bit too much of the Dean Ambrose/Seth Rollins angle from about a year ago, but it was good to see Cage go over strong to end the mini feud.


The Disciples of Death def. Son of Havoc, Ivelisse and Angelico to Win the Trios Championships

This was another match that, while it had some story behind it, was barely built toward, so I was pleasantly surprised by what we ended up getting. The early goings of the match were chaotic as all six-person tag team matches have been since the start and Angelico once again had the highlight of the match with his breath-taking dive off the top of one of the structures. The interaction between Ivelisse and Catrina was well done and her involvement protected the babyfaces in defeat. It also felt like a special moment because as the commentators mentioned, this was the first title change in Lucha Underground history (other than when the inaugural champions were crowned).

Drago def. Hernandez in a Believers Backlash Match

While it wasn't the best wrestled match on the show, Drago carried Hernandez to a pretty good match and the visual of the fans (some planted and some real) whipping Hernandez with belts at ringside was amusing and kept things interesting. Hernandez was rarely on offense (other than that awesome Border Toss to the outside), which may have been by design since I believe he requested his release from the promotion. Drago was reestablished as a legitimate threat with this win and I'm excited to see what they have in store for him in the next season.


Overall Show

This was the perfect pre-show for Ultima Lucha next week as it wasn't akin the matches you'd see on a Kickoff Show before a WWE pay-per-view (i.e. King Barrett vs. R-Truth). Fans were treated to three exceptional matches where the live crowd was electric for the action all night long. Additionally, there were a number of backstage segments that aired throughout the night that indicated several storylines that have been alluded to for months will be blown off next week, so I'm extremely excited to see how they to cap off this fantastic first season of Lucha Underground.

Now that the WWE has laid the smackdown on Hulk Hogan, firing him over his racist comments, who will replace him as a judge on WWE Tough Enough?

When the WWE fired Hulk Hogan over his racist comments, the Sports Entertainment company found itself with one less judge on their reality TV competition WWE Tough Enough.

Replacing Hulkamania is no easy decision, as he's arguably the most famous and recognizable pro-wrestler in history. As it turns out WWE have been tossing around some heavy names.

Top options seem to be Bret "The Hitman" Hart or Ric Flair. Other options would be moving Chris Jericho from host to judge and putting the co-host of Tough Enough Renee Young in the hosting role.

Neville def. King Barrett

Of all the matches these two have contested against each other over the last several months, this easily among the best. I don't know what caused their previous encounters to be less than stellar, but they clicked on this night and delivered a very fun match. Even the audience managed to invest in the action despite how Barrett means next to nothing right now, though I'm sure Neville's exciting offense can be credited for that. They work very well together and it's a shame neither of them are higher on the card right now so this contest could have meant more.


Bo Dallas def. Zack Ryder

After an entertaining opener, it was logical to bring the crowd down with this quick squash match. It wasn't much of note, but I always get a kick out of Ryder and he sold well for Dallas. It was encouraging to see Dallas score another win (in addition to winning on Superstars this week as well), but he'll continue to flounder until WWE can find something worthwhile for him to do.

United States Champion John Cena Interrupted The Authority

For those who missed it earlier in the day, it was already made official that SummerSlam would be four hours this year, so Triple H's announcement wasn't anything new. Still, that's huge, and speaking as someone who will be there live, the weekend definitely has that WrestleMania feel to it now. As for the rest of the segment, they pushed the "first time ever" talk a bit more than they should have, but I appreciated them announcing so many matches for the rest of the show, including a championship main event. I'm typically not a fan of The Authority opening the night, but this was a better segment than expected given what was accomplished.


Big Show def. Dean Ambrose by Count-out

It's hard to get excited over a Big Show match in 2015, and while this match didn't have me jumping out of my seat, I liked how it was something we hadn't seen before (translation: it wasn't Show vs. Roman Reigns for the millionth time). They contested a nice match with the traditional "David vs. Goliath" dynamic that worked well for them. At first, I groaned over Show winning, but then I realized he's the one in the Intercontinental Championship chase while Ambrose isn't involved in anything major right now other than the angle with The Wyatt Family.
