February Week 2, Year 3


Raw
Match 1. Naomi vs. Bayley


Match 2. Tye Dillinger vs. Ryback
Big E walked out and sat at ringside. Ryback landed a running splash. Dillinger came back with a snapmare and soccer kick. Ryback halted that momentum with a spine buster. He then hit the meat hook clothesline. Tye confronted Big E. Bad idea. Tye kicked out of a frog splash. Ryback won with the Shell Shock.

Ryback dominated most of the match. Tye got distracted by Big E. He won't win the title like that.

Match 3. New Day vs. Los Matadores
We haven't seen Diego and Fernando in months. Let's see if there is any rust.


Match 4. Sasha Banks vs. Charlotte
Nia Jax attacked Sasha after the match.

Main Event. Roman Reigns vs. Baron Corbin
Dean Ambrose made an appearance before the match. The two big man went back and forth. Reigns hit a gutwrench slam and the Superman punch for a near fall. Reigns then went after Ambrose but Corbin attacked him from behind and threw him into the steps. Reigns hit the Drive-by. Corbin won with the Falcon Arrow.

A good match with drama in the middle. Reigns and Ambrose are clashing at the next PPV.

SmackDown
Match 1. Natalya vs. Paige


Match 2. Tyler Breeze vs. Jack Swagger


Match 3. Mickie James vs. Brie Bella


Match 4. Kevin Owens vs. Tyson Kidd


Main Event. Dolph Ziggler vs. Alberto Del Rio
Sheamus walked out before the match. A lot of stars want a better view of the match apparently. Del Rio slammed Ziggler down and a spine buster. He then hit a jumping arm breaker. Ziggler fought back but went after Sheamus instead. Del Rio wore down Ziggler and won with the back stabber.

These stars have to stay focused. It's not good just weeks before the PPV.

NXT
Match 1. Rich Swann vs. Brian Kendrick
Kendrick attacked Swann from behind with the title. Kendrick hit a Death Valley Driver on the outside. He then hit a snap reverse neck breaker. Swann got a near fall after two package powerbombs. He continued with a Frankensteiner and springboard 450 splash. Kendrick hit a suplex but Swann rolled him up and won.

A great opening match. Swann recovered and got one over on Kendrick. Big win.

Match 2. Asuka vs. Summer Rae vs. Carmella


Match 3. TM61 vs. Blake and Murphy
Thorne wore down Blake on the outside. Miller continued the beat down with a basement dropkick. Thorne landed an inverted 450 splash and sit-out powerbomb on Murphy but still got a two count. Wow. Blake landed a running power slam. Miller planted Blake with a spinning side slam to win.

Decent tag match. TM61 is building momentum, though.

Match 4. Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Adam Rose
What?!

Main Event. Samoa Joe vs. Bobby Roode
Nakamura got involved in the match.


ECWCW
Match 1. Rhyno vs. Rob Van Dam


Match 2. Cactus Jack vs. Dusty Rhodes


Match 3. Ric Flair vs. Vader


Match 4. Hall and Nash vs. Impact Players
Credible countered the fall away slam. Hall slammed Storm down and tagged in Nash. The big man took out both opponents. Credible lifted Nash up for a Samoan driver and ducked a big boot. Storm hit Hall with a super back suplex and busted him open with a super kick. Nash pinned Justin after a big boot.

Justin and Lance were scrappy but the strength of Hall and Nash was too much.

Main Event. Sting vs. Hollywood Hogan
Hogan attacked Sting before the match.


Impact of Honor
Match 1. Adam Cole vs. Jay Lethal vs. Drew Galloway
An elite opening match. Lethal hit the first move on both opponents. Drew hit Lethal with a German suplex and a full nelson slam to Cole. He then pulled out a sledgehammer. After a few hits, he landed the Irish Curse. Lethal planted Cole with a DDT and the Lethal Cutter but got a two count. Cole grabbed a baseball bat and hit both men. He then hit Drew with a knee drop brain buster. Drew came back with the Future Shock. Cole then hit Lethal with a bridging German suplex to win.

Holy crap! These three wanted to kill each other. Cole wants his title back.

Match 2. Davey Richards vs. Mark Briscoe


Match 3. Elimination - ReDragon vs. The Hardys
This is the first time Matt and Jeff are teaming up in a while. O'Reilly hit a sit-out suplex on Jeff. Matt locked in a dragon sleeper. Matt and O'Reilly countered each other's moves. Matt then hit the Side Effect to eliminate him. However, Kyle had the ropes but the ref didn't see. Wow. Jeff landed the Whisper in the Wind and won with the Swanton Bomb.

ReDragon is definitely entitled to a rematch, especially because of the incompetent ref.

Match 4. PJ Black vs. ?????
Drago answered the call this week.


Main Event. Kurt Angle vs. Matt Morgan


Recap: Impact of Honor was brutal. There were a lot of mid-match attacks. Only six weeks left!
