ShangLuda Admirable film.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Ricardo Daly The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
jts0405 We take a look and analyze the final New Years Revolution event for WWE.Match 1: Jeff Hardy (c) vs Johnny Nitro for the Intercontinental Championship in a Steel Cage match - Another good one from these two. They put on some good matches during their feud that lasted 2006-2007. Overall some very nice spots in this cage match. Jeff was extremely over with the crowd and got a major reaction. The finish was very well done as Jeff Hardy escapes the cage to retain the Championship.Match 2: Cryme Tyme vs The Highlanders vs The World's Greatest Tag Team vs Jim Duggan & Super Crazy vs Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch in a Tag Team Turmoil match - A match added to fill the time, if I must put it simply to you. We see teams like The Highlanders, The World's Greatest Tag Team and Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch that could have been so much more than they were. Then we have a team like Jim Duggan & Super Crazy that makes you scratch your head in confusion. The match was overall a 20 minute waste. In the end Cryme Tyme gets the win.Match 3: Ric Flair vs Kenny Dykstra - I understood that WWE was trying to push Kenny, but Ric Flair is quite possibly one of the greatest names in wrestling history. The man is a 16 time World Champion, he has competed at the grandest stages in both WWE & WCW, but at this event he was paid to overall job to a former male cheerleader. The match was just a waste of time. In the end Dykstra gets the win over Flair, a complete miss. They didn't even end up pushing Kenny anyway.Match 4: Mickie James (c) vs Victoria for the Women's Championship - Both women are extremely hot, and can wrestle. This match was what it was, and was good for what it was. Maybe not the best match these two have ever put out, but still a decent mid card match. In the end Mickie retains her title after pinning Victoria.Match 5: Rated RKO (c) vs D-Generation X for the World Tag Team Championship - The match of the night. Edge & Orton really worked well together for the short time that they were a team. DX was well over with the crowd and got an ever bigger pop than dare we say... John Cena. The match was really good and showcased all four of Raw's top talents. Towards the end Triple H hits a spinebuster on Orton and suffers the knee injury that kept him out until SummerSlam. The match ends in a no contest, which the fans hate. Even though the ending wasn't clear cut, it was still a very good tag team match.Match 6: Carlito vs Chris Masters - This feud we have seen drag on from early 2006 is still going. Remember when Carlito faced Masters at Backlash 2006? Well they dropped the ball and just randomly picked up the feud again for this match. It wasn't the greatest and in the end Masters is able to defeat Carlito. As far as I know, this was the last match these two had against each other.Match 7: John Cena (c) vs Umaga for the WWE Championship - At this point in his title reign, Cena wasn't nearly as annoying as he was by the end of 2007. At this point Umaga had been undefeated since debuting in the WWE, and it was booked like Umaga was going to beat John Cena for the WWE Championship and continue going undefeated. Well the fans weren't really into Umaga, but Cena got the massive mixed reaction that he always gets. The match was fairly decent, Cena has some wrestling ability. In the end he pins Umaga and retains the WWE Championship. Ending the winning streak of Umaga in the process.
wrestlingsitewebmaster Another lame offering, NYR has been shoddy in 2005, 2006 and yes 2007. With the exception of one match (DX vs Randy Orton and Edge) the fans didn't care about matches like Kenny vs Ric Flair or the Tag Team Turmoil match.The DX vs Rated RKO match should have been the main event in my opinion not the John Cena vs Umaga match. Granted The Cena vs Umaga match was OK but could have been booked better.Results from the show: Jeff Hardy beat Johnny Nitro in a good steel cage match. Kenny pinned Ric Flair via a roll up in a lame match with a terrible finish. Cryme Tyme won the tag team turmoil match which also included The Highlanders, Super Crazy and Jim Duggan, Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin and Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch, fans popped for Chad's pinfall most probably they were relived this epic bore had ended not because it was a great match. Mickie James pinned Victoria in a decent match. Rated RKO and DX went to a non finish in a superb match when Triple H's leg gave way on him. Chris Masters pinned Carlito in a useless match. John Cena beat Umaga in a so so match to retain the title.Overall Grade - B/C
retroguy02 Jeff Hardy vs. Johnny Nitro for the IC championship - Nice match with both men getting to it, there was quite a hassle on the ropes even though the cage wasn't used that much until near the end… Nitro is climbing the outside cage wall and he's half-way near the cage's door; Hardy is inside the cage and just in the nick of time he kicks the door open and docks Nitro's crotch on the sill! Hardy then uses the door to get out of the cage and retain the title! Actually both men used good resourcefulness in this match. 8/10 (4 points of this just for the ending) Tag Team Turmoil for a World Tag Team Championship shot - Nothing too exciting for the match kind, just mediocre. Shelton & Haas work around with the Highlanders and Shelton finishes Robbie with a superplex. Jim Duggan & Super Crazy then also get eliminated this time by Haas – I wasn't quite paying attention when it ended. Trevor Murdoch & Lance Cade then end the World Greatest Tag Team after Cade whooped Haas from behind and allowed Murdoch to take the pin. Finally enters Cryme Tyme to perhaps the only cheer of the match. The thugs work it out nice until they clock a G9 on Cade and Shad picks up the pin to win the World Tag Team title shot. 7/10 Kenny Dykstra vs. Ric Flair – Nothing very wrong with missing this; Flair gets suplexed quite a bit and the two men exchange low blows pretty often. Kenny wins after a low blow followed by a cradle. 5.5/10Mickie James vs. Victoria for the Women's title – I always move over these things and so did nowRated-RKO vs. DX – Easily the most anticipated match of the night with gripping build-up, the dudes didn't fail to deliver. Michaels, Orton and Edge bled during the match and Triple H somehow injured his knee. Orton delivered two failed RKO's and Michaels even proceeded to knock out the referee and then battered Rated-RKO with chairs. Edge was given a Pedigree on the announcer's table while Orton got put through the Spanish table after a Michaels' elbow drop off the top rope!Interesting: sometimes one can clearly see that the chairs hit the guys' hands not the face still they were bleeding quite, especially Orton who actually took more deflected shots than Edge. The match ended in a no contest. 8/10 Carlito vs. Chris Masters – Why the hell is this promoted ahead of DX vs. Rated-RKO? Anyway an okay match with the men performing their styles. Carlito once again did some good aerials although Masters should really try something other than using sheer body. Masters won after grabbing Carlito's tights for the pin. Never mind Torrie. 6/10WWE Championship John Cena (c) vs. Umaga – First of all thanks God that the WWE decided not to use that Cena-Defies-All-Odds technique during this match. Cena for most of the time had difficulty with Umaga's size, and at a point even landed face-first on the mat after picking Umaga for an F-U. The match was laced up with some nice reversals and Umaga was quite versatile with his wrestling techniques. But of course it's a WWE match so Cena somehow wins after a ROLL-UP (that's right, a roll-up on Umaga) out of nowhere! 8/10Overall a very good card even if it didn't live up to Armageddon. Definitely not a bad way for the WWE to open up the year; the steel cage match and the main event were easily the best matches of the night even though the Rated-RKO vs. DX match should have had an appropriate ending (perhaps it was due to HHH's legitimate injury). The rest of the matches were in the mediocre-good range. PPV rating: 7/10.
kliko400 The first pay- per view of 2007 was not a disappointment that much to kick off the new year with New Years Revolution.First match-Jeff Hardy vs. Johnny Nitro w/ Melina in a Steel Cage match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship.This was a great steel cage match with no flaws as these two men put on great matches when they are in the ring together. Jeff Hardy wins after escaping through the cage door while Johnny Nitro was crotched on the Steel Cage door. 6/10 Second match- Tag Team Turmoil {Which was announced as a bonus match} A very great Tag Team Turmoil match, probably the best one I saw in quite a while, teams that were included were World's Greatest Tag Team, Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch, The Highlanders, Cryme Tyme & Hacksaw Jim Duggan & Super Crazy. Cryme Tyme win after eliminating Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch as the last team to earn a future World Tag Team Championship title shot. 6/10 Third match- Ric Flair vs. Kenny Dykstra Even though Kenny won, this match still was very good in my opinion, too bad Ric Flair lost by a roll-up by Kenny. 5/10 Fourth match- Victoria vs. Mickie James for the WWE Women's Championship Not really bad but a bit too short to amount anything. Still it's good that Mickie James won after Melina tried to interfere but Maria & Candice Michelle made the save which allowed Mickie James to reverse a Widow's Peak & nail a roll-up on Victoria for the victory. 4/10 Fifth match- DX vs. Rated R-K-O for the World Tag Team Championship in a no disqualification tag team match.Wow, now this is the best match of the night, I don't think I've ever seen a bloodier & so violent tag team match up like this. Too bad the match ended in a no contest as Shawn Michaels, Randy Orton & Edge were all busted up while HHH seriously injured his knee after attempting a spine-buster went wrong. 7/10 Sixth match- Carlito w/ Torrie Wilson vs. Chris Masters Even though I didn't watch Backlash 2006, I reckon their match at Backlash was way better than this, this match was just a bit slow & these two men weren't really putting that much of a fight. 3/10 Seventh match- John Cena vs. Umaga w/ Armando Eljandro Estrada for the WWE Championship.Finally Umaga has met his match against the best wrestler alive today which is WWE Champion John Cena. A great battle by these two men even though it might of been sloppy at times. After failing to attempt at least 3 F-U's, John Cena reverses a Samoan Bulldozer & gets a roll-up on Umaga to retain his WWE Championship & end Umaga's undefeated streak. 5/10 So far this was not a really bad pay-per view but the last two New Years Revolution pay per views might of been a bit better than this one. But this was still a very good pay per view to say the least.Overall: 7/10 & a C
