Clash of Champions Recap & Review
This year’s Clash of Champions was entertaining enough, but nothing seemed to get resolved in any of the storylines going into it.
This year’s Clash of Champions was entertaining enough, but nothing seemed to get resolved in any of the storylines going into it.
Alicia Fox takes on Nia Jax during a fine kickoff show.
A pretty good, but fairly forgettable edition of Superstars.
Storylines seemed to take a backseat this week, but that allowed Cedric Alexander’s NXT debut to take center stage.
The cruiserweights debut (though the champ is absent), Jericho starts making a list, Rollins goes full babyface, and the main event is a pointless cage match in a pretty average yet entertaining episode of RAW.
Braun Strowman beat up Sin Cara and the team of Curtis Axel and Titus O’Neil tried to do the same to Neville and Darren Young in an okay episode of Superstars.
The tournament ends and a new WWE Cruiserweight champion is crowned in a fantastic conclusion to the 2016 Cruiserweight Classic.
This was an uneven episode of NXT with some segments that were important (and entertaining) and some that were not.
Roman Reigns tries to work his way into the Universal Title match at Clash of Champions, Jinder Mahal debuts a new, peaceful attitude, a number one contender is decided for Charlotte’s title, and more on a pretty good episode of RAW.
This week’s Superstars features Neville versus Curtis Axel and Jack Swagger versus Titus O’Neil in two okay matches.
While not quite as good as the previous episode, the CWC continues to deliver great matches.
This was a good episode of NXT with two very nice matches and two that were basically exhibitions.
Quantity over quality in terms of the matches on this show make it an okay but uneven watch.
Another great show. It seems each round keeps getting better.
The wrestling was a little lacking on this episode. A good number of matches, but the quality just wasn’t there. This episode felt like a placeholder while they start to rebuild feuds after Takeover.
The crowning of a new Universal Champ highlights a pretty good edition of RAW.
Jack Swagger takes on Jinder Mahal and Golden Truth faces the team of Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel in two very different, but equally good matches.
The final episode of the second round brings another set of great matches.
This was essentially a recap of Takeover with a couple of filler matches. That’s not to say the matches weren’t good, they were fine, but they didn’t really mean much.
Despite the unfortunate injury to Finn Balor at Summer Slam, this was a good follow-up show to the PPV. A series of matches took place to determine four contenders who will fight to become the new Universal Champ, a probable new contender for Charlotte’s Women’s Title is introduced, and the Dudley Boyz gave what might be a retirement speech.
