Monday Night Open Mic

Howdy Blog O’Doomers!

And a Merry Christmas Eve to all of you celebrating and a Happy Festivus for the rest of yous. RAW is on TV tonight and like most of their shows right before Christmas, I expect it to be a pretty light hearted affair that’s a little lower on storylines.

The Broncos/Raiders MNF game is a dog but there are plenty of good seasonal moves with “Beauty and the Beast” on ABC, “It’s a Wonderful Life” on NBC and “A Christmas Carol” on TMC. I think IFC starts their “Die Hard” marathon tonight as well.

I did want to add a couple of year-end match recommendations that you might have missed during the year because they just weren’t well publicized.

— Roderick Strong had a nice short run in 205 Live and both his match vs. Hideo Itami on the February 6 episode is very good, arguably Itami’s best in WWE. His match against Cedric Alexander on the March 13 episode is also excellent.

— Pete Dunne vs. Zack Gibson for the WWE UK title on the second day of the UK Tournament is a damn good match and they sold the drama well.

— Another good 205 Live gem is a tag match with Buddy Murphy and Tony Nese against Lince Dorado and Gran Metalik. Murphy was all a pretty good roll by that point.

In other news Road Warrior Animal sounds like a moron and gets dissed on Twitter.

Anyway talk about all the good food you guys will be having the next two days and keep it clean!
