While RAW pulled off a bunch of shockers to kick off the competition among the programs in WWE, SmackDown Live made surprises of their own: though the WWE Championship was renamed the WWE World Championship in response to RAW's Universal, the way the contenders were determined into a series of multi-man matches.

Classic Catfight

I might be a week late. But I have seen this for thrice, and this should better be part of the best matches of the year. Why Not because I said so, but we haven't seen the best catfight for months. Perhaps the last time was during their stint at NXT (as much as I wanna count the ladder match at NXT TakeOver: Respect, I personally haven't seen it yet).

The Rundown Slam: WWE Battleground 2016

Before we know it, the WWE already unveiled their new era as SummerSlam approach. And that being said, the last PPV to be staged in the then-typical way was WWE Battleground. Still, no WWE stories came to an end without a bang on it; and by means, we have seen factions getting split (thanks to the WWE Draft happened five days before), and rivalries conclusion – and that includes the brotherhood's championship chase.

It was a night where The Wyatt Family and The Club were torn apart, where a destined to “fight forever” between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn should come into a halt, and where the former members of The SHIELD battled each other for who's the greatest member with that WWE Championship worn on his shoulder. It was also a night of decision on which McMahon will emerged at the top of the game.

And moreover, which brand will control the most prestigious title in the world of sports entertainment? Will it be RAW or SmackDown?

These questions were answered at the unveiling of the WWE Batlleground happened eight days ago at the Verizon Center in Washington DC.

Finale Friday

It's a sad day for Philippine radio; perhaps another heart-breaking milestone since NU 107's sudden demise in 2010, where fans gathered outside the station's vicinity and waged a street rally in commemoration of its run lasting a legendary 17 years.

Ito na naman tayo, ang mundong mahihilig pumutakte ng mabababaw na iskandalo kesa sa mga mahahalagang isyu ng bansa. Palibhasa kasi tapos na ang SONA at nauurat na rin ang tao sa mga bagay na may kinalaman sa #obosen.

So sa isang panayam sa entablado kasi ng FHM 100 Sexiest Victory Party na ginanap kamakailanlang, sinabi ng isang artista na si Jessy Mendiola na “sexiest woman” siya.

O ano naman? Ang yabang raw kasi.

Playback: Nag[ma]mahal, BennyBunnyBand

Off all the bands I've been listened to in the current music scene, BennyBunnyBand can be considered as one of the standouts, and we're not talking about popularity here; but rather, in terms of infusing their own sound.

Imagine a ukulele doing the lead thing in crafting a kind of rock music of its own. And since Benny Giron and his bandmates have rabbits as a spirit animal, it's no surprise they labeled themselves kuneho rock

The (Fantasy) Pre-take: WWE Draft

Never in my life would I thought of doing this. I mean I could have do so, every year when the basketball leagues held their lottery (but of course, a lot of matters made me unable to do so).

I should be practicing that come the upcoming PBA draft soon. Meantime, shifting from basketball to professional wrestling.

The Rundown Slam: The Final Deletion

I rarely watch TNA since other wrestling promotions wasn't really getting airtime on Philippine television (with WWE obviously dominating in a somewhat monopoly-like outlook). But despite being under-the-rader to a typical wrestling fan, Dixie Carter's firm were more familiar to the smarks, and it shows why for one reason: being a home to some of the greatest stars we have seen in both WWE and WCW.

When it rains, it pours. And it's so typical we get more emotional tracks on an ordinary rainy day. And even if those #emo tracks were almost invisible to point in the current circulation, #hugot tracks had take over the scene. And it doesn't necessarily need to penetrate the charts for its presence to be more evident.
