Chewy's Weekend Wrap Up: Talking Matt Hard, UFC, NFL,WWE Championship Book and more!

What's up everybody? It's the end of the week so that means it's time for another edition of the weekend wrap up!!

Anyone else watching this season of the Ultimate Fighter? Bruce Leeroy is one of my favs so far, had a nice win in the first episode.

UFC 119 is tomorrow night, headlined by Frank Mir V.S. Cro Cop and Ryan Bader V.S. Antonio Nogueria, Not sure who I want to win Mir V.S. Cro Cop yet but i'm cheering for Bader in his fight.

UFC does AMAZING countdown/preview shows.

Surprisingly my Chiefs are 2-0!! I'm heading to Kansas City this weekend for the game Sunday!

Anyone catch the preimer of Two and A Half Men Monday? Man that was funny stuff.

Now time for wrestling chat

Unless something happens next week Matt Hardy should still be employed by WWE. Looks like he spends most of his time now in the gym, we all know he needs to.

I get the feeling that Matt is one big attention whore, posting all these youtube videos about how he's getting in better shape and how he wants a release from WWE and blah blah blah.

I just wish WWE would let Hardy go already so he can become another guy on the TNA roster.

For those who don't know yet our friend Kevin Sullivan (no not the Task master) is releasing a book called the WWE Championship.

From what it sounds like the book has a lot of really neat stories from past and present champions, if you follow him on twitter @sullivanbooks he'll give lil stories here and there from the book also does a lot of wrestling related question's pretty fun to follow.

He also wrote the WWE Encyclopedia book that's out right now. The WWE Championship book is due in November, you can pre-order it on Amazon.com. We will have Kevin on an upcoming edition of Shotgun Radio stay tuned.

Raw rating surely took a hit! 2.8!? DAMN WWE has to come up with something especially with the go home show this Monday being taped.

Hell in a Cell is shaping up nicely, i just feel that having a ppv 2 weeks apart doesn't give a lot of time for build up.

I'm looking forward to Cena V.S Barett, this is the PERFECT time to turn Cena heel.

Orton V.S.Sheamus in Hell in a Cell should be a good one as well

Taker V.S. Kane Hell in a Cell should be decent be interesting to see how Taker can go in hell in a cell.

I actually watched impact last night, wasn't to bad i still feel their show Reaction is better then impact.

Last night TNA held two show in separate cities one in New York the other in OKC.

OKC was headlined by Flair V.S. Angle, this match would of been good......if Flair was 20 years younger, Angle can still hang with anybody, I don't think Flair can though.

TNA Really should of stacked the Hammerstein ballroom show in NY last night IMO.

I'm beginning to think "they" are gunna end up being Sting and Nash....This has Nash's name written all over it.

Dixie once again promoted the "change" that will happen Oct 7th...I wanna know but at the same time my hopes are very slim.

TNA signed free agent Mickie James, GREAT movie by TNA, Mickie reminds me a lot of Trish, hopefully they use her right and help push their knockouts so we don't see the same three every week.

Well that'll do it for another edition of the weekend wrap up.

WWE Night of Champions Predictions


Today is WWE's annual Night of Champions Pay Per View. Personally one of my favorite concept Pay Per View's WWE has. Let's get right to the picks.

Chewy's Pick's

Big Show V.S. CM Punk - This match really has NO meaning to be on this pay per view. I'd rather see the tag team title match get thrown on here. Which i'm sure will be a last minuet addition as nothing has been announced - I'm taking CM Punk here.

Melina V.S. Michelle McCool to unify the Women's and Diva's championship - Well in this business it helps when you know the right people, I think Melina should win but will she? No. As well all know McCool is married to Taker therefor has a power rank within WWE. I'm taking McCool, but don't be surprised to see Layla come out and try and cost her the match setting up a feud for them.

Dolph Ziggler V.S. Kofi Kingston for the I.C. Title - Hopefully this will be the end of this feud. I think this will go to Ziggler.

The Miz V.S. Daniel Bryan for the U.S. title - I think this title doesn't do anything for Miz right now, I think he'll drop the title to Bryan here.

Kane V.S. Undertaker - I'd like The Undertaker to win, but I don't know how much the guy has left in his tank to have another title run. I think Kane will come out and retain the title here.

6 Pack Challenge John Cena V.S. Wade Barrett V.S Randy Orton V.S Sheamus V.S. Edge V.S.Chris Jericho - My pick goes to Barrett but it would not surprise me to see Sheamus retain only to have The Miz come out and cash in the Money in The Bank and win the belt (That's my wild card pick)

Ziggy's Pick's
-Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett vs. Chris Jericho vs. John Cena vs. Edge vs. Randy Orton in an elimination match for the WWE Championship.
Zigman: Wade Barrett

-Kane vs. Undertaker in a No Holds Barred match for the World Heavyweight Championship.
Zigman: who cares

-The Miz vs. Daniel Bryan for the United States Championship.
Zigman: Bryan Danielson

-Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston for the Intercontinental Championship.
Zigman: Kofi Kingston

-Melina vs. Michelle McCool to unify the Woman's and Divas Championships.
Zigman: Melina

-Big Show vs. C.M. Punk.
Zigman: C.M. Punk

Chewy's Weekend Wrap Up: Talking NFL, UFC, Matt Hardy, Night of Champions, TNA,Ring of Honor,and Much More!

What's up everybody? Time for another edition of the weekend wrap up!

NFL Week 1 sure kicked off with a BANG! My Chiefs pulled a huge upset over the Chargers! The crowd was extremely loud the whole game and was very fun to watch!

UFC Ultimate Fighter season 12 started off this past Wednesday night, from what I've watch they've got a good group of guys in there. The wild card factor is always great.

Is anyone still watching baseball right now?

Ever since football started baseball just doesn't matter anymore.

Is anyone else wondering what the hell is wrong with Matt Hardy? Does he really think his fans that follow him on the internet are stupid to think he didn't really get sent home?! Come on Matt?!

I think Matt is trying to get his release from WWE, What wrestler in their right mind would promote the "competition" and teas the fact that he's going to make a jump?

Personally I think WWE just needs to cut ties with Hardy, they're not using him good anyway, plus they got plenty of young talent right now that they don't need Hardy.

I still have yet to watch a single episode of "season 3" of NXT, It sounds like it's absolute garbage. I feel sorry for the 1. something million people that actually sat through that crap Tuesday night. Although i should of just watched Michael Cole quit, sounds like the best part of the show so far.

I get WWE trying to keep the PG image but releasing Alosia was just stupid, the pictures in question she took however many years ago...what should it matter now?! WWE you use to have girls in Playboy!!!!

Night of Champions is coming up tomorrow, I'm pretty excited for this PPV.

All the titles on the line, a short Divas match that I get to bitch about on Monday, Miz possibly walking out as WWE champion, and Daniel Bryan becoming the new US Champion should make for a fun night. Those are just my predictions anyway.

TNA.......ugh......nuff said

I attempted to watch a lil bit of it this week, I just have a hard time getting into it....I wish they'd continue to push their young talent more. They have GREAT young talent that they NEED to push.

That'll do it for another edition of the weekend wrap up, Short edition this week. Be sure to come back tomorrow for our Night of Champions picks!

Soundoff: The end is near for NXT.




Well WWE tried a new concept show, I thought it worked great with the men of FCW(Florida Championship Wrestling) but then they try to do an all diva's show. Why? WWE doesn't give their diva's the time of day on house shows, T.V. or Pay Per Views. I have yet to watch one episode of this season of NXT and I don't intend to.

Tonight Michael Cole did probably the best thing he's ever done in his career and no that's no commentating. He spoke the truth about what the fans think about NXT, or this season at least. Cole called the show ridiculous and saying it violated his journalistic integrity. Nice work Cole! Not only does it violate you integrity, it violates the integrity of the fans that have to watch it not only in the arena but the ones who watch it for 5 minuets at home.

I feel if I watch 5 minuets of this season I will seek to an all time low. To put it simply this season without watching is god awful!

Michael Cole said tonight we could catch a replay of tonight episode on wwe.com tomorrow...why the hell would anyone want to?! That's where this season should of been put all along!! I'd rather watch a weekly highlight show highlighting the week in events for WWE then have to sit through watching horrible female wrestlers..if you can call them that..

They said the first elimination is in 3 weeks...They still won't be done with it when the contract runs up on syfy...WWE do yourself and your fans a favor and slap together a highlight show for the next 4 weeks and air that instead! Move NXT to WWE.com!

What are your thoughts on NXT? Should it go back to an all Male cast? Or just stay on wwe.com and be a web show? Let us know with a comment below or on our facebook page!

Chewy's Weekend Wrap Up : Talking New Fall TV Shows,NFL,NCAA,Triple H,Kaval,TNA Set to change yet again and more!

What's up everybody it's Saturday which means it's time for another edition of the weekend wrap up! Let's get to it!

NFL kicked off this past Thursday night with the Saints beating the Vikings 14-9, Very defensive battle on both sides of the ball. Vikes offense just needs to click more.

My chiefs get a Monday night game for once!! I'm pretty excited for this game against the Chargers. Can't wait for Monday night!

Hawks are playing Iowa State right now and were ahead 21-0 in the 2nd! Dominating them on all sides of the ball!

New fall shows are starting to pop up! Looking forward to a new season of Biggest Loser starting in a couple weeks as well as new season of Two and a Half Men.

Now time for wrestling

For those who haven't heard yet Triple H is now an executive within WWE and works directly under Vince McMahon, Apparently he's been doing this for years already except now he has an official title and an office at the WWE headquaters.

If i were a betting man I would be willing to bet that Triple H and Stephanie will take over when Vince retires or dies...I can't see Vince retiring.

Kaval made his debut on Smackdown! this week. Looked really good to, I think he'll fit in well on Smackdown! I just wish they'd get him away from Laycool.

I wasn't aware WWE does "seasons" apparently the new season starts on Monday.

Why bother calling it a season WWE? You don't take time off.

WWE & THQ had their roster announcement conference this week for the new Smackdown VS Raw video game, I'm very impressed with the roster and can't wait to get this game!

The Miz was on hand for this press conference dude was very funny!!!

In case you missed it go back and watch John Morrison V.S. Chris Jericho from Raw monday, overall GREAT match!

Also been REALLY enjoying The Miz and Daniel Bryan feud, hopefully they give the US title to Bryan at Night of Champions.

Not gunna lie i'm looking forward to WWE's Night of Champions PPV.

Moving to TNA now did you guys know TNA is gunna change AGAIN?!

My guess is this time Hurricane Helms OR Carlito will come in and be faced with the tough challenge to "change" TNA.

I wish TNA or Dixie Carter for that matter would quit saying their going to "change" TNA.

I guessed last week that the divas ppv match wouldn't go more then 5 minuets....I was right.

For a company who claims to have the better diva's of the industry they sure don't use them at all.

We see the same diva's week in and week out....Well same 4 diva's each week.

Ziggy and I had a nice bitch fest on our show this week about the booking in TNA...To put it simply it's just fucking horrible!

How can you have an AMAZING match in Angle/Hardy and NOT give them a REAL/Clean finish!!!

I felt bad for Anderson and The Pope to have to TRY and follow that match.

Did anyone else catch Kevin Nash's twitter rant this week? LOL WOW Either he had to much to drink or he just wanted to go off..Funny thing is what he said is all true.

Well that does it for another weekend wrap up.

TNA No Surrender Picks


Not going to lie i'm not really excited for this PPV, TNA has done a pretty bad job hyping it up and most matches didn't get announced until Thursday's impact. Anyway here are our picks.

Motor City Machine Guns V.S. Desmond Wolfe and Magnus - Motor City Machine Guns

A.J Styles V.S. Tommy Dreamer in an "I Quit" match - I'll be pissed if they let dreamer win. If TNA is all about Youth they need to let AJ win otherwise this youth movement is full of shit. I'm taking A.J.

Kevin Nash & Sting V.S. Jeff Jarett & Soma Joe - I'm going with Joe and Jarett here

Douglas Williams V.S. Sabu for the X-Division title - I think I'll take Williams here.

Chewy's Weekend Wrap Up: Talking Hawkeye Football,Chiefs Football,Who are "They",Smackdown VS Raw 2011,900 Raws, Matt Hardy,Christian and More!


What's up everyone? Hope you all had a good week! It's the weekend so that means it's time for another edition of the weekend wrap up!

Hawkeye football kicked off today!

Nothing more exciting then seeing a sea of Black and Gold again!!

My Chiefs won their first pre-season game since 2008 the other night over the green bay packers.

I know pre-season don't mean shit but damn it's nice to get a win.

Ok let's get to wrestling

TNA is heading to IOWA for a house show next month, me and the Zigman got 2nd row seats and will be providing updates while we are there! REALLY excited for this house show.

Many people have some crazy theory's on who "they" are that Abyss keeps talking about.

One that I read today and really like is Main Event Mafia.

I kind of wish TNA would SKIP tomorrow's PPV, There is ZERO hype for it. They've been hyping Bound For Glory, Skip tomorrow and just keep hyping Bound For Glory.

TNA has more women on their roster then WWE does, yet we only see the same three women each week...Women's wrestling is MASSIVE fail!!

WWE had their 900th raw episode this past week, I wish they would of brought back some older guys. 900 episodes is a HUGE deal.

WWE is starting promoton for their next installment of the Smackdown V.S. Raw video game series.

Personally I can't wait for this years game over 70 guys in the game!

I turned on Smackdown! last night and I feel like every time i turn on Matt Hardy is facing Drew McIntyre.

I wish WWE would give Hardy more of a push but I understand why they don't.

Same thing can be said for Christian

He puts on good matches but hasn't been pushed they way he should.

Is anyone else in eastern Iowa looking forward to Smackdown! moving to SyFy and actually being on at 7pm as apposed to 9pm!

NXT Season 3 is All Divas?! FUCK! One show i willl NOT be watching.

They've already tried to start a storyline before the show aired by Vickie "Firing" her diva.

Guess what WWE I'm still not interested...cause whoever wins you'll just burry them anyway.

I'm super excited that Kaval won NXT season 2. I see him ending up on Smackdown!

On a final note I truly hope WWE gets a deal worked out with Chris Jericho. He's one of, if not the BEST promo guys they have and an AMAZING in ring worker..Regardless I think they'll get something done and he'll be back by the end of the year.

That does it for this weeks edition of Chewy's Weekend Wrap Up.
