Judgment Day 2009

Judgment Day 2009
May 17, 2009
Allstate Arena
Chicago, IL

Announcers: The teams of: Todd Grisham & Jim Ross, Josh Matthews & Matt Striker, and Michael Cole & Jerry Lawler

Here we are now into another stretch of bang, bang, bang shows only three weeks apart. I’m not really that excited going into this one as although it looks on paper to be a solid show, there’s also nothing that really stands out. I’m expecting the most out of Jericho/Mysterio since they’ve done good stuff together in the past, and Jericho will do all he can to make the story meaningful. Benjamin/Morrison also looks like a potential show stealer, but the rest looks more like “Been there, done that”. So let’s see what we get out of Judgment Day 2009. Read the rest of this entry

Backlash 2009

Providence, RI

Announcers: Michael Cole, Jim Ross, & Jerry “The King” Lawler

With only three weeks since Wrestlemania, and the Draft being given a great deal of attention in the interim, Backlash seems like it may well be an afterthought.  The card that was announced did look good going into the show though and for some reason Backlash seems to almost always deliver, so I’m actually excited for it.

Before we get the opening title, we see a video package hyping the big main event tonight. That’s right folks; after only being in ECW for 2 weeks, Christian gets a shot at Jack Swagger’s ECW Title. Could we have a new champion tonight?? Do I really care?? “Probably not” to both questions, but we’ll see how things go. We’re in the arena now and I’m hearing music I haven’t heard in a while. Is that DJ Gabriel?!?!?! Where the hell has he been??

Finlay didn’t win at No Way Out…… shocker!! Its 9 o’clock and that means another episode of ECW on Sci-Fi.

Your hosts are Todd Grisham and Matt “The Teacher” Striker

We open up with a video promo showing the surprise return of Christian and the feud between him and Jack Swagger. Basically this promo highlights their segment and non-title match from last week. I guess Finlay’s loss to Swagger at No Way Out isn’t even worth bringing up right now. After the intro we go strait to our first match….. what?? No talking? No wasting time, weird.
