By Graham "GSM" Matthews The Hardys def. The BroMans in Tag Team Tournament Quarterfinals Match I had a hunch Matt would be choosing Devon as his partner so they could begin a feud with Magnus and Bram, but I'm glad they took the more logical route and had him go with his brother Jeff instead. The BroMans are a joke tag team, so the ending outcome was never in doubt. That said, it was a nice match because while The BroMans have a terrible gimmick, they're decent enough wrestlers. I'm curious as to whether The Hardys will remain a tandem for a while longer or if they're just sticking together for the tournament. Devon and Bram Brawled Bram, to me, comes off like a star with his look and wrestling ability, but I continue to fear that TNA is branding him as a hardcore wrestler and nothing more. He's capable of much more than that and I hope that's not the direction they're taking his character in. His reasoning for attacking Devon last week was rather weak and the brawl between the two was as basic as it gets. They did a decent job of building up the match for later in the night, but it wasn't a marquee match anyway, so why not go right into it?

By Graham "GSM" Matthews WWE Tag Team Champions Gold & Stardust and The Usos Participated in 'How Well Do You Know Your Bro?' I refuse to even bother giving my (expert?) analysis of this, as it just might have been one of the dumbest I have seen on WWE TV in a long time. Everything about it was ridiculous and I can't believe the people who wrote this thought it was a good idea. Needless to say, it was a weak way of furthering this feud going into Hell in a Cell, and if anything, it probably made me less excited for their upcoming match. It's almost as if it was intentionally bad because you need to really try in order to get a segment that horrendous. Tyson Kidd def. R-Truth This was essentially the exact same match we saw from these two last week and it was fine for what it was. It's just incredibly hard to get invested in anything R-Truth is involved in these days. He's so irrelevant that I take nothing he does seriously. That said, I continue to enjoy what they're doing with Kidd right now and am glad he's getting more TV time. It was nice for him to get his win back over Truth, but I'd like to see him engage in a real feud with someone sooner rather than later. By Graham "GSM" Matthews The Authority Hyped Hell in a Cell I feel like I've ranted enough about The Authority opening Raw week in and week out, but it doesn't take away from the fact that it's cliche and overdone. Granted, they did a solid job of building up the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view (and God knows it needs all the hype it can get), but Triple H just had to turn it into a joke by plugging the WWE Network. It wasn't a completely pointless promo by The Authority, but it wasn't the right way to kick off the show. Damien Mizdow and WWE Tag Team Champions Gold & Stardust def. United States Champion Sheamus and The Usos We've every combination of this six-man tag team match in the last month or two that it has gotten to the point where I can't even enjoy the action. All six competitors worked hard, but it's the same match every week and it's grown tiresome. If nothing else, Mizdow's win was a pleasant surprise and The Miz's reaction on commentary on priceless. Mizdow is awesome (no pun intended) in the role, but I'm sure a split is coming sooner rather than later. #AskGSM Edition #49: Justin Roberts' Release, Hottest Diva, Likely WWE Returns, NXT, More10/20/2014 By Graham "GSM" Matthews #AskGSM is a weekly Q&A video where I, Graham "GSM" Matthews, answer fan questions from Facebook, Twitter and YouTube in regards to the world of wrestling.
