Warning: there will be censored adult language references to in this content

The problem that either the WWE or/and TKO has is: really simple for the amount of money they are asking for which is easily running into hundreds of thousands of dollars or pounds or any other coin equivalent; the booking or the cards are not strong enough to justify that kind of expenditure for an average person; so let's have a quick look at the matches I wouldn't pay to watch as things stand.

Night 1:

1: The Usos': Jey & Jimmy Uso & LA Knight vs. the WWE World Tag Champions The Vision's: Logan Paul & Austin Theory & IShowSpeed [with Paul Heyman;] Six-Man Tag Team Match:

Reason/Reasons: this is just a classic case of getting names on the card and it tells me that they think very little of these championships because at the very least they could have put a stipulation in place where if the champions lose their next defence is against The Usos or if they win their next defence will be just against Knight on his own, you know spice things up a little and it gives the illusion that either outcome would be interesting.

2: Liv Morgan vs. Champ Stephanie Vaquer; Singles Match for the WWE Women's World Championship:

Reason/Reasons: if this was just the match with the championship on the line where winning or losing clean then I would be interested, but I just see interference being a major factor and if so they may as well have just put it on their TV programming.

3: Jacob Fatu vs. Drew McIntyre; Unsanctioned Match:

Reason/Reasons: this just smells of; we have just remembered WrestleMania is just a short time away and what are we going to do with these two wrestlers? I know let's put them in a feud together... great idea. Well I am not buying it for some reason, I just think it is going to be a complete mess and quite possibly derail the momentum of this first night, because with this stipulation used, it usually indicates some kind of violence or/and blood at some point.

4: Randy Orton [with Pat McAfee] vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; Singles Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship; If Orton loses, McAfee will leave the professional wrestling business for good:

Reason/Reasons: yes absolutely I wasn't particularly on board with this main event to begin with, but even I have to say the original WWE feud idea going off Orton and Rhodes history is at the very least solid, compare to now with TKO's involvement and let's just say drastic creative directional changes, this is now looking like a complete manure show.

Night 2:

5: Rhea Ripley vs. Champ Jade Cargill; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Championship:

Reason/Reasons: every long-term wrestling fan knows this expression your wrestling division regardless of gender is only as strong as your champion and for the younger generations this does not mean physically strong; this means consistent on-screen [which absolutely we can blame the WWE for this for possibly a good chunk of responsibility,] but some of it has to fall on Cargill as the holding champion, but hypothetically if she was coming in with say 8 or more defences in this reign, I would say this was potentially a marquee match.

6: "The Demon" Finn Bálor vs. Dominik Mysterio; Singles Match:

Reason/Reasons: simply put the faction/stable known as The Judgement Day have well and truly past their sell by date and I find this all incredibly boring as fudge and what really is the cherry on top of this manure cake is I can smell the desperation including "The Demon" I would be more happy to see Papa Shango or/and The Bogeyman, in fact that is a great idea: why didn't they set up a lumberjack/monster style match: where on one either side of the ring we have; Shango, Bogeyman, Abyss or/and Kane [or if Kane can't make it, I am sure his brother The Undertaker/Undertaker/Taker can make it] to stop interference and obviously if one or both of these competitors should be on the outside help them back in, but "The Demon" on its own with a very ordinary stipulation of Singles Match is hardly going to cut the mustard as things stand at the level of WrestleMania.

7: Trick Williams vs. Champ Sami Zayn; Singles Match for the WWE Men's United States Championship: even though I'm not attending this year's Mania in the slightest and before anyone asks that will probably never happen. But hypothetically if I was going I would be extremely urinated off that we almost had Williams vs Champ Carmelo Hayes for this championship and I would have said thank you very much WWE, but as things stand we have this manure instead and how can I but this nicely... I don't want to see this manure, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say probably most people don't want to see this match, they can always make it a triple threat for this championship at Mania, but for some strange reason I don't see them giving their fan base something that they like.

So yet again as things stand: there is 7 out of 13 matches which I wouldn't pay to watch, I mean the closer we are getting to this weekend are closer I am now thinking How are they going to screw up the ending of Roman Reigns vs. Champ CM Punk; Singles Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship? Because I have no faith anymore in this modern day WWE hierarchy with or without TKO, come on this should be a case of one section of the fan base is going to be happy with who goes over here and one isn't end of story. But my years of experience just tells me the WWE are going to screw/troll their fan base and give them the middle finger, I have suggested DarkState from NXT might be the ones to do it, I just have this feeling that no one is going to leave this event happy with the ending of this main event.

I am not deliberately taking a dump on this main event, I honestly hope it goes one way or the other for all concerned, but something in my stomach and head tells me we as wrestling fans are just going to get the Montréal Screw Job, in a nutshell because I have just filled out a previous piece of content; I can now really see this main event having some kind of dusty finish just for the rematch to take place in Riyadh Saudi Arabia where they can make lots more money at Mania 43/2027, I can really see it coming obviously I hope I am wrong for the sake of the fans heading to this year's Mania, because if I was going and I am at least somewhere in the right ballpark I would be urinated off for sure, but only time will tell and I mean this sincerely I hope I am wrong genuinely; you see this is not a WWE vs. AEW thing this is a wrestling fan thing where we are all getting pretty much squeezed out of the WWE it financially or their content or any of the burden that comes with being associated with the WWE, they have well and truly forgotten without the generations of fans the WWF/WWE wouldn't still be standing and consequently thriving and I'm going to leave this content on it really sad reminder yet also incredibly predictable I can guarantee you that in Riyadh Saudi Arabia their Mania cards are going to be much more stronger than these two; let's put it this way hypothetically speaking so of course I could be wrong on some level; if they have 14 matches over the weekend I can guarantee you the average of those matches based on match slots are going to be I would predict say on average good to higher build the absolutely no fillers, I will even go one more step and say you'll be lucky to have no more than 3 average to worse matches slots over the entire weekend and just to cover my back a little I mean matches specifically on the card so anything before this does not count [I like to give myself a little bit of wiggle room and considering this and that prediction for more than a year away I think I can give myself a little bit of wiggle room,] for now until next year everyone gets it does get ready for Punk and/or Reigns taking on DarkState or another new faction/stable the main roster.

Warning: at one point or another there will probably be censored adult language references

Je'Von Evans vs. Dragon Lee vs. JD McDonagh vs. Rusev vs. Rey Mysterio vs Champ Penta; Six-Pack Ladder Match for the WWE Men's Intercontinental Championship: as I have been indicating from Night 1 they should allow wrestlers from generations past to have their moment at this event, especially in this case when we don't know how many more he has; they can always have a rematch at WWE Backlash to put it back on Penta.

Rhea Ripley vs. Champ Jade Cargill; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Championship: well this is a complete fudgin' joke to the point where if AEW had pulled the same manure 70% of you would be going mental about it and if you have no idea what I am making reference to so far in Cargill's months [roughly standing at over 160+ days as of this content being first created] reign as this champion I think she has on some research had one again Jordynne Grace on SmackDown Friday 13/02/2026 and that is it; how about we just get this championship away from her, because even creatively or wrestling wise they don't see anything in her, because if they did they would use her and this is just my opinion just for the record and for the love of any god you believe in can we please, please bring back the 30 day championship defence rule or if it should happen they are only a couple of days away over that fair enough or you know something for us to work with, because of these types of situations it is unacceptable for Cargill to hold onto this championship for this long and have only defended it once, I mean if they want to do this they should repackage her as Honky Tonk Women and I am sure she can learn how to play the guitar and look nice with an Elvis haircut.

"The Demon" Finn Bálor vs. Dominik Mysterio; Singles Match: I really don't care about this match The Judgement Day may have pretty much gone these days, but for me this is at least a year or more to late, as in this faction/stable has been unstimulating for so long now I just consider this match slot to be wasted by this match with an uninspiring stipulation to match as well.

Trick Williams vs. Champ Sami Zayn; Singles Match for the WWE Men's United States Championship: speaking of matches I couldn't give two manures about swiftly brings me on to this match, no I really couldn't or give two horses manures about this whole situation. Because simply put; Zayn shouldn't be anywhere near this championship let alone being its champion heading into this event, everyone knows it should be Williams vs. Champ Carmelo Hayes in this match slot, I mean what is it with the WWE and being unable to tell story feuds; Randy Orton vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; have a long and distinguished history, but regardless of interference from TKO let's not go with this feud that makes sense [yes I haven't been on board for this feud anyway, but as we are having it; let's have it... if you know what I mean?] But I digress; just go for putting Pat McAfee in the mix and here yet again let's go from a feud built from their NXT days either together or separately which would have made likewise perfect sense... No let's just put the championship on Zayn and missed this great opportunity to showcase this organically naturally built historic feud and to put over both young talents in Williams and Hayes on the biggest stage in all of professional wrestling, I mean if Zayn doesn't turn heel to retain his championship here, then what is the fudgin' point of putting the championship on him to do this potentially heel turn on the biggest stage of wrestling? Or on SmackDown Friday 17/04/2026 do the right thing WWE and at the very least make this a triple threat match for everyone I have mentioned in this match slot.

Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar [with Paul Heyman;] Singles Match: yet again with Seth Rollins vs. Walter this is another marquee match that needs a little bit more than this Singles Match stipulation; like I said yesterday; how about the winner gets to choose a main brand champion at SummerSlam 2026; I mean you could have hypothetically let's say CM Punk as champion taking on the possibility of the winner between Rollins vs. Walter on the Saturday of SummerSlam and on winner takes on Sunday it is going to be Femi or Lesnar; so if you are Punk you will have two wrestle twice in two days or of course you have the option of a triple threat on one night or both nights, I am just saying that these two massive matches that will fit any Wrestle Mania card in the past, present or future needs to be given a little bit more vision and/or respect and just simply 2 singles matches stipulations.

Roman Reigns vs. Champ CM Punk; Singles Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship: now yes I wasn't and still am not keen on this match, but however it is a marquee match, which if I had any faith in the WWE hierarchy creative team I would say this match is going to be good, but back in reality; I can see them yet again trolling everyone and giving us a dusty finish with either someone debuting or returning to make it big impact... actually I have spent 5 seconds thinking about it; they are going to debut DarkState on to the main roster aren't they?... I can see it coming after these two have wrestled for may be somewhere between 45 to 50 minutes; the lights go out and here they come, I mean there has to be a reason why as things stand there are 7 matches on a Saturday and 6 matches on a Sunday, and I get it the six-pack match slot takes time and this main event will take time, but now I have sat here for more than two minutes... something is coming where for some reason we aren't getting a clean finish in this main event which is going to infuriate people more.

In fact whilst working on another piece of following wrestling content; it is just come to me as clear as day why would they want a clean finish here when they would make much more money putting a year behind it to then have a clean win in Riyadh Saudi Arabia Mania 43/2027, I guarantee you this is the direction that they are heading in, okay to cover my back I may not be completely right but I can see this match taking place again in Riyadh that is sure.

Additionally: it is now some to my attention that WWE have indeed cancelled a match of a marquee standard between Iyo Sky vs. Asuka: which firstly are you fudgin' nuts WWE? This match deserves and needs to be on the biggest stage of them all in professional wrestler and it is now probably going to take place at WWE Backlash I mean Wow talk about a great disservice to not one but two phenomena wrestlers and I am now really concerned on what manure they are going to put on instead.

Warning: at one point or another there will probably be censored adult language references

The Usos': Jey & Jimmy Uso & LA Knight vs. the WWE World Tag Champions The Vision's: Logan Paul & Austin Theory & IShowSpeed [with Paul Heyman;] Six-Man Tag Team Match: hopefully they will put the babyface's over to begin this night on the right foot And justify the Twins having a championships opportunity at WWE Backlash for the Men's Tag Team Championships.

Liv Morgan vs. Champ Stephanie Vaquer; Singles Match for the WWE Women's World Championship: I will be surprised if this match is still going ahead, based on Morgan's head injury, but if it does this match is just going to be recycled at WWE Backlash just a championship switch here and don't be too surprised if Raquel Rodriguez returns to make the difference here.

Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley & Lyra Valkyria vs. The Bella Twins' Brie & Nikki Bella; Champs The Irresistible Forces' Nia Jax & Lash Legend; Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship: the Twins are a going to get their moment at this event and this will not be the only time they do something like this on this night

Jacob Fatu vs. Drew McIntyre; Unsanctioned Match: I really couldn't care less about this match, but they are probably going to write McIntyre off TV for a while anyway, I have no inside source on this but just common sense, I just know he has a movie project Highlander 2027 or 2028 alongside Dave Batista and others

Becky Lynch vs. Champ AJ Lee; Singles Match for the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship: they should give Lee her moment at this event so that is my thinking here

Seth Rollins vs. Walter; Singles Match: for me this should be in the main event slot, I know it clearly won't be, but I'm talking about a true WrestleMania type of match; main event just stick the stipulation of whoever wins gets to pick their Championship opponent to close SummerSlam 2026, I mean with the right build this could have been a pinch of Andre the Giant vs. Champ Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania III 1987,with the only difference is in these modern times I have chosen the bigger man to win back to here and now Rollins is obviously going to be  frustration by this loss, but is going to want to  continue the war  at WWE Backlash

Randy Orton [with Pat McAfee] vs. Champ Cody Rhodes; Singles Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship; If Orton loses, McAfee will leave the professional wrestling business for good: I couldn't give less of a fudge about this match, I mean I wasn't on board with it begin with, but I mean if we are going to tell this story, they couldn't even get that right; thanks to TKO's involvement. I mean get from this history making rivalry to by all accounts the feud switching focus from the wrestlers to McAfee? I mean 9 times out of 10 I wouldn't believe rumours, but allegedly some people are saying that when Backlash rolled round it is going to be something to the effect of a tag team match between Rhodes & Jelly Roll vs. Champ Orton & McAfee for this event's main event slot, I mean what the hell are we doing here? This is precisely why I have completely checked out of this promotion and no if you have been following me long enough, you would know that it has been something over the last 3 or 4 years, I don't care who is to blame but this upcoming weekend is meant to be the biggest in the wrestling calendar and I am like meh, even more so now they have basically foreshadowed/told us by adding the extra stipulation that Orton isn’t going to lose here and you think this is bad next year's event is going to be I would feel comfortable suggesting maybe twice is worse based on the fact that hardly anyone can attend due to their sexual preferences or anything that goes against the Middle Eastern regime.

Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/ritual/stabbing/cutting/drugs/dismemberment/cannibalism/bodily functions/religion/animal cruelty/animal biting/medical

12 Norse and 1 Middle Eastern go on an adventure: briefly; these Norse have to go and help this village, but the bones say 1 of not Norse must go with them; Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan [Antonio Banderas:] he is a middle eastern individual that has been banished from his homeland for falling in love with an individual, but now finds himself on this adventure.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script in conjunction with the foundation and pacing is all good for this 102 minutes film; we do get this character developments/exposition voice over from/of Fahdlan: this is one of those movies where okay we quite clearly deal with before this adventure; but having said that this film is predominantly focused on this adventure and nothing after; so on reflection; it is predominantly situation/adventure based project and based on that I will give this project and extra mark, because it doesn't claim to be anything other than that.

Art and action; the set designs, scenery, wardrobe and etc are like the action sequences; well presented and without giving too much away we have a little skirmish behind enemy lines which likewise on reflection is the standout action of events as we get more variety of; mission, silence, attack, evacuation and art as we go underwater.

Comedy, character developments, action and performances; well this is comedy but also character developments; where these particular characters of Norse have somewhat questionable hygiene and how can I put this nicely?... They recycle the same water and Fahdlan and another politely decline, sometime later Fahdlan shows what he can do with a sword of his making and culture; so we very much have elements of a cultural divide and how Fahdlan learns how to speak Norse/consequently we the audience learn how to understand Norse also; in short the movie turns over to English... is a elegant way of doing things. Now this is very much a cast performance of all good chemistry and camaraderie as they all wanted to get this film done.

This film receives: 7/10, this film is good; as I referenced earlier; if you just see it as what it is; which is a good solid present adventure and nothing more then you can't go far wrong with it, but if you are expecting something anything other than this then and I am not disrespecting this film or anyone reading this; but maybe this film isn't for you. This film also has some awards accredited to its name 2 Winners which include but not limited to ALMA Award Outstanding Actor in a Feature Film Antonio Banderas ALMA Awards 2000. 2 Nominees which also includes but not limited to Make-up Artists and Hair Stylists Guild Award Best Period Hair Styling - Feature Peter Tothpal Janet MacDonald Angelina P.

Who is Harry Crumb? 1989 by AverageMansReviews

Who is Harry Crumb? 1989 by AverageMansReviews

Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/drugs/racism/sexual harassment is less animal cruelty/electrocution/rainbow community/vehicle crash

Who is Harry Crumb?: Briefly; Private Detective Harry Crumb [John Candy:] he is a third-generation of well-respected private investigators that has their own agency, but Harry is not highly respected, but when he gets put on this case of this missing person, where he meets Nikki Downing [Shawnee Smith:] she is the young sister of the kidnapped party and she helps Harry with this case.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 94 minutes film is very good; as it has been designed to always be progressive and to step up for the next oncoming thing; be it comedy or action or simultaneously both at the same time

Comedy and action; we have an excellent selection; starting with at some point or another falling fruit; at minimum I think it may be something of the Orange family of fruits, likewise at one point or another this oncoming comedy reference of this fossilised egg and we even get an NFL reference about it at some point as well. We have our partnership in his vehicle which has had its breaks tempered with, so we have Private Detective Crumb reading the manual whilst they are in this runaway situation or months later we have our partnership back, but Private Detective Crumb getting really cold in the vent and then quickly being pushed through them, to then knocking out security waiting and hoping it is continues to be his lucky day as the vent has already gave him some money out of Private Detective Crumb's pockets.

Character developments and performances; our lead partnership; is vitally important as Private Detective Crumb/Candy is doing his comedy shtick, providing she is on screen now and again someone like Nikki/Smith just to be that person to bounce off and move on the storyline and more importantly they do understand one another: from the aspect of having certain pressures placed on them from their legacy or family relations even though it may not be coming from the sister [I was thinking I would just mention that; because we don't actually see it in this film, but at minimum; fair enough if your sister is the model and the younger sister implies in one conversation that she feels under pressure obviously I am paraphrasing, then I have to go with that.] Jeffrey Jones as Eliot Draisen: he is in control of Crumb and Crumb/Crumb Detective Agency that puts Harry on this case and Annie Potts as Helen Downing: she is the stepmother to both daughters and she has a high sex drive: character throughout this cast are like their on-screen chemistry and camaraderie as well: what is needed for these characters to be at every stage through this movie with spot on performances and chemistry to match: so behind this pairing they have an excellent cast and camaraderie to support them.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment; providing your family is at minimum 13 years old at home, it is suitable for all the family and without a shadow of doubt it is a film that you have to see at least once in a lifetime or before you die that is for sure, at minimum this film should have them positive nominations for some awards, but as of this content in first dictated, it doesn’t which is a travesty of justice.

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/other effects/transformation in this trailer and yes I will be using adult language references; still censored but I will be using them nonetheless

My Reaction: Okay who actually asked for this manure? I have just seen the 139 seconds trailer and if anyone from Disney can't see the alarm bells ringing, maybe I should go and get Matt Murdock to point them out to them, because I'm going to start this content from this perspective; yes absolutely the cultural component, the musical aspects involving choreography and all that may be and what possibly will be the driving force behind the success of this live-action reboot.

But having highlighted all of this positivity; Dwayne Johnson as Maui: looks a complete joke, the wig is appalling; it doesn't sit on his head at all properly so much so; you know if you were born back in the 1980s and/or in the 1990s you knew someone was wearing a wig in particularly a poor quality wig when the natural head or remaining natural hair didn't match the wig on top; that is precisely the problem we have here, so of course I guarantee you some people like myself included will be sitting there watching this movie being distracted by this terrible wig and because Johnson at some point last a lot of weight his head either doesn't fit the wig or Maui's larger-than-life body type; Johnson can be as charismatic as he wants to be in this live-action reboot, but when it is glaringly obvious he physically no longer fits this role then there is a problem and I think Johnson as a live-action Maui is just going to eventually become very jarring anyway.

The computer animation is also really concerning; it may be absolutely fine with these animal creatures that go on this journey with us, but when you see it in the background with our characters in the foreground; there is a clear division between one and the other where it should look all-encompassing and when there is a lot of computer animation in one way or another; it just looks incredibly messy and as if it is running off an old computer system like Windows 95 as in it will do the job, but it is going to struggle with it.

So if this isn't combining to make this live-action project potentially problematic these next two points will; so let me get this right we have just had Moana 2 2024 and as of now/yet there are no signs of Moana 3, but they are going to satirise their fan base/market with this reboot, so hold the fudge on how about we get the animated version done first and then give it some time and then start with the live-action trilogy, because this is coming off as very exploitative and money grabbing, this is why I put the titles I did in the related content section and it was to make this very valid point/points; these live-action reboots are and were fondly remembered and/or nicely modernised for a different outlay and there was plenty of time between animated versions to live-action reboots; so consequently it makes them look more genuine [yes I am very much aware that Lilo & Stitch is a Disney product,] but the fact remains the last animated title was Leroy & Stitch 2006 and the animated TV program was in Lilo & Stitch: The Series [between 2003-2006: 2 Seasons: 69 Episodes:] so as you can see plenty of time has passed and even How to Train Your Dragon gave it sometime between their last animated project of How to Train Your Dragon: Snoggletog Log 2019.

My prediction for this film is: I think at best and they should think themselves lucky from me it would have to be 6/10, I do stress this is because of the positives I have already mentioned, but if this film was to be a 4 or 5/10, I really wouldn't be surprised in the slightest more probably 5/10, but I like to give myself some wiggle room.

 

 

In-depth Predictions/Other elements for AEW Dynasty 2026 by AverageMansReviews

In-depth Predictions/Other elements for AEW Dynasty 2026 by AverageMansReviews

Casino Gauntlet Match for the vacant AEW TNT Championship: Tommaso Ciampa: basically of what I have seen of him with this championship in his first reign, I wouldn't mind seeing more of it in a second reign.

The Don Callis': Andrade El Ídolo [with Don Callis] vs. Darby Allin; Singles match; If Allin wins, he will receive a future AEW World Championship Match: I really don't like this stipulation, just because its virtual signals on I wonder who is going to win? I would have preferred the phrasing of: the winner of this match gets an opportunity regardless of the championship in question, I know the result is probably going to be the same anyway, but let's try and hide it a little bit shall we.

Will Ospreay vs. Champ Death Riders': Jon Moxley [with Marina Shafir;] Singles Match for the AEW Continental Championship: Osprey will get a helping hand from his real-life; life partner Alex Windsor and Shafir's opponent on The Zero Hour show just for this event starts in a singles match.

The Young Bucks': Matt & Nick Jackson vs. the Don Callis Family's: the AEW International Champion Kazuchika Okada & the NJPW World Television Champion Konosuke Takeshita [with Don Callis;] Tag Team Match: I fully expect the family to be victorious here, but then again I also would like to think that maybe someone returning to make the save, so it is about storyline progression.

Jamie Hayter Champ the Triangle of Madness': Thekla [with The Sisters of Sin's; Julia Hart & Skye Blue; Singles Match for the AEW Women's World Championship: I fully expect the numbers game to be a factor in this match slot

Cope and Cage: Adam Copeland and Christian Cage vs. Champs FTR's: Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood [with Stokely] Tag Team Match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship: for me it does depend if the Phoenix will fly again or Stokely is going to be telling factor, but I have made my decision and I am going to stick with it.

Chris Jericho vs. The Demand's: Ricochet [with The GOA's: Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona;] Singles Match: in short I fully expect interference from The GOA that will be the deciding factor.

Kenny Omega vs. Champ MJF; Singles Match for the AEW World Championship: I get the feeling that when we have AEW AllIn 2026 from London Wembley Stadium on Sunday 30/08/2026, I wouldn't be surprised if we are in a situation where it is Career vs. Championship where I can see Kenny Omega winning there, but for here and now I will stick with the champion winning here.
