M-$kwared's RAW Analysis
...Lol, I said "Anal"
The Cutting Edge!
- Nice way to start off the show man. I kinda wish it would've been written out so I could get the full feel for it, but what you have is good enough. Michales gets the RKO, and before Cena can make the save, Rated RKo high-tails it. Typical from Edge and Orton, good way to keep them in character. Then, on top of that Vince make the huge tag team event! Excellent opener!
Booker vs. Carlito
- I don't know much of these two in this particular thread, but this match gave me a good idea. The two battle it out, and the match ends up a no contest. Then, you announce the Summerslam match. Nice way to fill spots on SS, and more importantly, build up the feud between the two.
Hass Backstage
- Oooooh mystery. Not much to it here, but in real-life...it would be a good way to build up some suspense for the match.
Hass & *** vs. Cade & Murdoch
- Huge surprise here. Bringing back an old team between the two, or so I think they used to be a team. Anyways, on point here, I noticed that you put a little OOC stuff in there. Be careful of that, "storyline" is a word that you don't want to put in, even in recap form, because WWE is supposed to be "real". That one line took away from the realism, even in a recap...but putting Cade and Murdoch over was a good move anyways.
Grisham & Jericho Interview
- Very nice character work with Jericho, however it could have been a tad better. On the good side...this was a great way to brin the match up, and once again raise the tension for the match ahead.
Cryme Tyme Promo
- Nice work, again. Haha very original. The video expressed the characters of Cryme Tyme well, and stuck to reality at the same time. Good.
Hass & MNM
- Not much to say here. MNM rubbing it in really helps to build up the characters of MNM, and build up the storyline of Hass's tag team woes.
Mickie vs. Melina
- I'm not too big of a a fan of diva's matches in BTBs, but thats just me. A good end to it, having Victoria come out, and thats really all I can say.
Cena & Michaels vs. Rated RKO
- Welp, it's time for the big match eh? Let me say: nice work. It didn't disappoint, as many built up matches do, but I'm glad yours didn't. Once again, a superstar interferes....this time in the for of Christian. GOod work here having Cena and Michaels prevail anyway.
Benjamin vs. Venis
- Surprised that this match came after the tag match, but oh well. Good match here, with Benjamin picking up the win. Having Hardy come out at the end was a good way to semi-hype up the match at Summerslam.
Main Event
- Incredible work! Very action packed, and I felt the Extremity of it, despite the recapped writing. Having Jericho win with the "cheap cover" was good, and having his refuse RVD's hand was even better.
Dude, I can't wait to see one of you future fully written shows, and this show pulled me in to want to see Summerslam. The only thing that bugged me was that the show has so much potential and was recapped, but even that didn't bother me much. So, all in all, your show was good and I'll give it a 8/10.

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
King Of Pain's Raw Feedback
~ Disappointed to see that it isn't in full, but I just have to remind myself that SummerSlam is just around the corner
Good way to open the show with an old school Cutting Edge of sorts on Raw. This Team McMahon/Team HBK feud has really taken over the build up to SummerSlam in my eyes, even with my favourite wrestler Y2J being involved in the WWE title match. It was a good, high octane beginning in my opinion, with Edge doing what he does best, recapping things in slow motion and such, before getting his head kicked off my Michaels. It's wierd that this opening segment kind of reminded me of Raw earlier this year when Cena/Michaels was set for Wrestlemania, and they were feuding with Rated RKO. There were lots of run ins just like this, with first HBK getting the upper hand and then Orton nails him with an RKO, until Cena makes the save. The tag team match sounds excellent as well, worthy of a Main Event {but Jericho gets that
}, but it will probably be filled with interference, as we have not yet heard from the likes of Triple H, Christian, Stone Cold or Flair.
~ Ah, Carlito and Booker T finally get a chance at one another after feuding for a while. No real surprise to see it end in a Double Countout, and it is quite nice to see this match now on the SummerSlam card. With all of the huge matches already lined up for SS, this has a very conservative feel to it, which is always a positive on a strong PPV. Both men are favourites of mine and deserve a spot on the card. As the young face, CCC will likely go over to continue his rise up the roster.
~ Lol. Oh man, Charlie Haas is really having a hard time of it lately isn't he? He tries it out with another partner in Big Vis, but the big man ends up going down to Cade and Murdoch. C & M needs to be in the World Tag team title contention if you ask me, but it looks as though Haas will be there soon enough. I'm very intrigued to find out who his new partner will be. More than likely it will be someone fresh to the roster.
~ Excellent to get an interview from my man Chris Jericho next, and I can definately see him gaining some revenge by beating Sabu at Extreme Rules tonight. Palumbo has effectively become his bodyguard, even though you told me he was just an 'ally'. This feud will give Palumbo a big rub regardless of whether or not Y2J gets the WWE title. I pray that he does
~ Some more hype for Cryme Tyme I see. Good idea for their video, even though I dislike their gimmick. Despite that, they are sorely needed on Raw right now for your tag team division, and the sooner they arrive the better. Odds are they will be thrown straight into a feud with MNM like Regal and Taylor were against Londrick on SD.
~ So with this little backstage confrontation between Charlie Haas and MNM, I can discern that Haas will indeed be feuding with these two for the tag titles soon enough. I really can't wait to see who he teams up with in the end.
~ Quick divas contest to get Mickie James some more momentum it seems. Melina has been billed as a bit more competetive in this division now, and it is likely that she will become a player soon enough, but this was more about furthering the feud between Mickie and Victoria. Nice attack by Vick afterwards, actually adding some brutality to the diva feud.
~ Everything seems to be running very smoothly so far in Team Showstopper, with thi sunity during their interview, before they actually pick up a really comprehensive victory over Rated RKO. I think soon some tension should start to appear between HBK, Cena, Austin and Flair to add a bit more excitement to the mix. As for what this result means, I think that it will be like this for a while leading up to SummerSlam, with Team Showstopper staying ahead of Team McMahon and getting the better of them; because I'm fairly certain that Edge, Orton, Cristian and Hunter will be going over at SS. They need it much more.
~ Nice backstage segment from McMahon and Austin. I expected a bit more attention on Hunter's presence, but it was barely touched on. I loved Vince throwing beer in Austin's face, but I'm even more excited by the announcement of Austin/Christian next week. I can't really see it getting a clean finish, as neither man should look weak heading into SummerSlam in my opinion.
~ Crikey, we're getting a lot of matches tonight aren't we? I was wondering where Shelton Benjamin and Jeff Hardy had disappeared to, so it's good to see them get on the card. Val gets squashed by Shelton, but the stare down between Benjamin and Hardy is very intriguing. I think we could finally see the end of Shelton's long Intercontinental title reign at SummerSlam, before the inevitable Ladder Match at a future PPV.
~ Sounded like one hell of a Main Event after a brief RVD/Sabu segment. I'm so glad that Jericho managed to regain some semblance of his momentum by picking up the win here tonight, especially in a brutal Extreme Rules match. He got a clean, arrogant win too, so it makes him look strong, just like he should heading into his first WWE Championship match in this thread. The handshake offer at the end was intriguing, but you chose well to have Y2J decline it, as he is working so well as a heel right now.
Overall this was a nicely recapped show, KOP. You have two VERY big feuds right now in the WWE title one and the Steel Cage showdown, as well as two more excellent ones in Shelton/Jeff and Carlito/Booker. One thing that I was disappointed by was the lack of Christian tonight, but other than that it worked well. SummerSlam is shaping up very nicely indeed
is better than you!

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
WWE.com News and Notes
The WWE has granted Daivari his release today. The WWE would like to wish Daivari the best in his future endeavors.
Raw is expected to undergo some drastic changes to the roster shortly after SummerSlam. One superstar has already said he is leaving from Raw, while Mr. McMahon is planning on taking a lesser role. McMahon has been on TV pretty much all year and feels now that Jonathan Coachman can "control" the show. Stone Cold and Sabu are most likely expected to leave too as they were just brought in for feuds right now. Expect some changes around Raw after SummerSlam, that's for sure.
WWE has already made plans for WrestleMania 23 and it's seeming as if it's going to be once again another huge event. WrestleMania 23 is going to be live on Sunday April 1, 2007 from Miami, Florida. Speaking of WrestleMania 23, the first WrestleMania video will debut at SummerSlam.
Charlie Haas's storyline is seeming to being well developed and fans are seeming to enjoy it. Expect it to take a major twist in the next few weeks.
Rumors are going around now that there is possibly another Raw superstar that is wanting his leave. It seems superstars are becoming disgruntled backstage with the fact that they are not recieving their pushes and some just want to leave. If this superstar was to leave with the other one that has been rumored for a will, expect something big to happen to clear the space up for these two.
There are talks of possibly a new name debuting in the WWE shortly after SummerSlam. Take this with a salt of grain as nothing has been confirmed. However, WWE has been clearing out their roster and released nearly 15 people over the course of the past few months so anything is possible.

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
Since the show is in recap form, I'll just leave some comments on the show and the feuds/segments.
Despite being in recap, the Cutting Edge segment was great and was great in setting up the huge tag team match for the main event. I have a feeling that Michaels/Cena will get the win in the match in the Main Event. As far as the Booker/Carlito match, it looks like the feud will continue as the match ends in a no contest. Good point of letting the bookers know how long the feud has been going on between the two, without having to go back a few pages in the thread to find out. Interesting storyline with Hass. I wonder who and when the person who Hass was talking to will be revealed. Vis is Hass' partner for the match, but Hass can't get the win. Wonder who Charlie will choose for a partner for next week's show. Good video promo from Cryme Tyme. Can't wait until they arrived in this thread. The Jericho/Sabu Extreme Rules looks like it is going to be great. I won't comment on the MNM segment with Hass, but the Women's Match was really good. Nice to see Mickie pick up the win. As far as the attack from the champ, Victoria, it just furthers the feud between the two and the title. Decent promo from Michaels and Cena. Also, I'm surprised that this match isn't given the Main Event match. Great tag match as both teams wrestled great in this match. Michaels and Cena get the win like I had a feeling they would. Surprised that nothing took place with Austin and Hunter. However the match between Austin and Christian should be great, since it has been built for the past two months, (thread time). Shelton wins in a non title and I like that the match wasn't a squash match, but made both men look good in the match. As for the Main Event, this was great as Sabu and Jericho hit a lot of their spots. Nice way of getting Jericho over more as a heel, with the heel win, and then the heel actions of not shaking Van Dam's hand to end the show.
Overall Comments: The show was great man. There were some grammatical errors here and there, but for the most part the show was great and continuing the feuds for Summerslam. Looking forward to Smackdown!
As far as the WWE News and Notes goes, out of all threads, this thread has been getting rid of quite a bit of wrestlers lately. So I'm wondering since about fifteen has been released in this thread, who will be the new wrestlers to come into this thread.
[u]KOM has returned to BTB with WWE 2007: The Legacy and Aftermath of WrestleMania!

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
RAW Review
Good to see The Cutting Edge returning back, and kicking off tonights show. The entire concept of this promo was good, and everyone looked fine to me. HBKs Sweet Chin Music to Edge, and then saying That! was a priceless moment. Expected Orton to make the save, but not like this, so thats good. Cenas run in was also expected since hes in HBKs team. The tag team match announced definitely is huge, and Ill be looking out for that one especially. Nice promo to kick off RAW.
Looked like an okayish match to kick off the action of RAW, but just didnt like how the match ended in a No Contest, and then straight after it, you announce a match between Carlito and Booker T for
. Just doesnt look right to announce a match through the commentator for a big pay per view like SummerSlam. That just didnt look right to me, but anyway, Im expecting Carlito to beat Booker at SummerSlam.
Um, Im excited to know who is going to be Charlie Haas partner. Lets find out. Oops, Big Vis? Ugh. I know youre trying to make your thread look realistic, but please dont have Big Vis in any kind of a match. He bores me, and to be honest, the entire match bored me too. But the ending of this match was better. Glad to see Big Vis getting pinned. Lol. Looks to me that Charlie Haas will probably get another guy for him, but who could that be?
Good to see Palumbo being Jerichos bodyguard. Makes Palumbo look credible too. Nice promo by Chris Jericho, but it wouldve been better. Where the catchphrases of Y2J? I needed that its my dose of getting entertained. Lol. Looking forward to the main event by the way. Hopefully Y2J takes out Sabu.
Cryme Tyme is coming back to RAW. Good work, but I hope that you still bring in more teams, and make the tag team division better. Nice, funny promo too.
Okay, this confrontation here between Haas and MNM makes me believe 100% that Haas is gonna find some partner, and feud with MNM for the tag team titles. Hopefully Haas gets a better partner (who entertains) so that we could get a good and an exciting match between these two teams. Nice promo again.
Feel good to see Mickie getting some momentum here. Good win for her, and the aftermath was even better, with Victoria taking out Mickie in her own fashion definitely added more fuel to the womens title feud.
Didnt really like this promo here between Cena and Shawn Michaels. Just looked too generic in my opinion. You need to build up this huge feud more, and in an exciting way. Excitement is lacking here. The unity however, as said by Legend, was good here though. Onto the match now, good way to finish off this match. It had just one interference and that was from Christian, but HBK took care of him. Good to see Cena and HBK getting the win and adding a lot of momentum to their team, but the opposite team now needs to bounce back.
Good promo here, but Triple H shouldve played some more part here in this promo though. Loved the concept of this match, and Im interested about Christian versus Austin next week. The match was on Wolfys WM card, so lets see how you handle this one. Not sure whos gonna win though, but I just hope that the match ends in a no contest or in a DQ so that no one looks weak.
During the whole Charlie Haas part in the earlier part of the show, I was missing Shelton, and here I finally get him. Good booking decision by having him getting a win over Val Venis. The staredown was good, as it added some more hype to their match at SummerSlam. Nice match up, and nice aftermath, but the excitement factor is still not present.
Good to see Y2J beating Sabu in a heel way here. The match between RVD and Y2J at SS for the WWE title would surely be amazing, but you need to hype their feud more through the promos too. Thats the main problem in most of your feuds. You manage to get good matches, but only matches wont be good. Excitement factor is still lacking Ive said it, and Im saying it again. You need to throw in more
promos for your feuds too to get it real build up.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown Preview
Friday August 11, 2006
Main Event Announced
Announced earlier this week on WWE.com, Smackdown GM Teddy Long has booked a Triple Threat Tag Match for this Friday. The match will see the World-Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle teaming with former United States Champion, Bobby Lashley against JBL and Finlay against Mark Henry and the Animal, Batista! Angle makes his return this week on Smackdown as he was off last week after Henry took Angle out two weeks ago in the Street Fight.
Big Red Impact?
Last week, everybody was surprised on Smackdown whenever Kane made his way down to the ring! Kane fought a good match but however JBL got himself disqualified at the end of the match knowing he was in trouble against the Big Red Machine. This week, Kane finds himself once again in one on one action. Can the Big Red Machine rebound off last week's DQ win over JBL on his Smackdown debut?
Last Ride for Batista?
Could these be the last few weeks Batista will spend on Smackdown for a while? It will be if the Undertaker has anything to say about it at SummerSlam. Last week Teddy Long announced that there will be a Last Ride Match at SummerSlam between Batista and the Undertaker to end their feud for once and for all. The Undertaker is set to make an appearance on Smackdown tonight but in what shape or form?
For all of this and more, tune into Friday Night Smackdown, this Friday at 8/7 CT on UPN.
Ok, sent KoM and Legend a PM earlier about their shows and AS! thought I'd tell you I'll probably get back to those later in the week. Anyways, if I decide to type Smackdown, it'll be up later this week and if not, I'll just recap it. Really, I didn't have much planned for this week. Personally, I think once SummerSlam passes, everything is going to really start picking up as I've got many good ideas. So just bare with me until SummerSlam which I feel is going to be a great PPV that shouldn't be overlooked before I move on the road to WrestleMania 23.

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
The main event for SmackDown especially looks a very exciting match up. It'll be interesting to see how you handle Kurt Angle/Lashley, Henry/Batista, and JBL/Finlay as a tag team. Looking forward to Kane's debut too, and 'Taker-'Tista feud looks sweet too. Looking forward to the entire show, buddy.

Friday Night Smackdown
Friday August 11, 2006
Huntsville, Alabama
Smackdown opens tonight with a huge promo with Mr. Kennedy! Kennedy rambles on about how Rey Mysterio and Matt Hardy last week fought for the right to face Mr. Kennedy at SummerSlam. Kennedy compares himself to some of the greatest United States Champions such as Ric Flair, Harley Race, Ricky Steamboat but that none can hold a candle to Mister Kennedy! Kennedy says that just because Rey Mysterio somehow managed to win his match last week doesnt mean that he is going to win at SummerSlam. Kennedy says that he has beef with Rey over this and he has even more with his friend Matt Hardy. Kennedy shows a quick recapped video of his problems earlier in the year with Matt Hardy at No Way Out leading up to WrestleMania. Mr. Kennedy says that it doesnt matter who Rey Mysterio brings with him to SummerSlam because Mr. Kennedy will walk out as the United States Champion! This brings out the Smackdown General Manager, Theodore Long. Long states that since Kennedy is looking ready for competition, and has been running his mouth, he will have a match right here and right now against Matt Hardy! But before the match can begin, Long says that at SummerSlam, he has taken upon himself to add Matt Hardy to the match! However, Matt Hardy wont be wrestling in the match, he will be the Special Referee! Kennedy throws a temper tantrum in the ring, knowing that Matt Hardy could screw him over at SummerSlam! We then head to a commercial break before our first match is ready to start.
We come back from the break to see Matt Hardy and Mr. Kennedy already in the ring going at it. Kennedy got the best of Hardy apparently as the show began as Kennedy has Hardy in the corner as we come back from the break. Kennedy seems to be working over the arm of Hardy, which would prevent him from hitting the Twist of Fate on Kennedy. Good thinking on Kennedys part and he continues this attack as he flips Hardy over with a snap mare. Kennedy rares back and kicks Hardy right in the back! Hardy flinches, grabbing his back and yelling out in pain! Kennedy walks around taunting Hardy as Kennedy walks back over and locks in a headlock. Kennedy has the headlock in but Hardy gets back onto his feet and throws Kennedy into the ropes. Kennedy comes running back and hits Hardy with a Shoulder Block. Kennedy makes his way over onto the top ropes but Hardy pulls Kennedy down before he can do anything. Hardy throws Kennedy into the ropes but Kennedy reverses. Hardy however prevents Kennedy from throwing him into the ropes as he hits the Side Effect out of nowhere! The fans cheer on Hardy as he doesnt pin but pulls Kennedy back up. Hardy tries for a Twist of Fate but Kennedy pushes Hardy into the turnbuckles stomach first. Hardy stumbles back right into Spike DDT from Kennedy. Kennedy heads over onto the top rope and leaps off but misses the Kenton Bomb! Hardy goes for the cover but Kennedy kicks out. Hardy pulls Kennedy back up but Kennedy shoves Hardy into the ropes! Hardy turns back around right into a kick straight into the lower region of Hardy as the ref calls for the bell. Kennedy pounces on Hardy, throwing lefts and rights at his nemesis before down comes Rey Mysterio! Mysterio dropkicks Kennedy into the bottom ropes before he runs off, looking for the 619 but Kennedy ducks out of the way and slides to the outside. Kennedy grabs his title as Mysterio helps his friend Matt Hardy back up in the ring as we head to another break.
After the break, we head backstage to see JBL standing by with Kristal. Kristal asks JBL about tonights main event to which JBL responds with that he is in the least bit worried about tonight. He responds with the fact that he is more worried about his career being on the line at SummerSlam because Teddy Long wants to screw him over. And not only that but he has to beat two men to save his career, not one! However, JBL says that if he does win, and he will, he will once again be on top of the mountain. Kristal asks JBL if he is going to be able to get along with Finlay later tonight to which JBL responds that he has no problem with Finlay. JBL says though that he does have a problem with the fact that Kurt Angle is overlooking him. JBL reminds the fans that he was Mr. Money in the Bank and that just because he lost doesnt mean he wont win at SummerSlam. JBL closes this out with his famous Wrestling God quote as we head down to ringside for our next match.
Our second match of the night is a quick squash match that sees Kane take on Nunzio! Nunzio doesnt get in any offense and why should he? Kane is made to look super strong for now before he gets into a feud later on after SummerSlam. Kane works over Nunzio, in a rather quick fashion as he hits all his moves including the Big Boot and the corner clothesline before finishing the Italian off with the Chokeslam from Hell for the win! Kane celebrates his win as the fans cheer for the Big Red Machine.
We come back after the break once again for this time to see Cruiserweight Champion, Jamie Noble and friend Kid Kash standing by backstage. They seem to be talking about something whenever all of a sudden, Hornswoggle comes running through. Finlay is chasing Hornswoggle throughout the arena as he runs right into Theodore Longs office. Finlay apologizes to the Smackdown GM but Long stops Finlay saying that he has something for Finlay. Finlay looks confused as Long states that since Finlay felt fit to cost Lashley his match at the Great American Bash, well then he can feel free to step into the ring with the Dominator Bobby Lashley at SummerSlam! Finlay drops his jaw, not knowing what he has gotten himself into now!
Shortly after this promo, we head over backstage to see Pirate Paul Burchill sharpening his sword backstage. MVP just happens to walk by and gets into the face of Burchill. Burchill doesnt say anything as the cocky and arrogant MVP takes care of that. MVP says that last week Burchill didnt win but that MVP had injured his leg so he had to quit the match then and there. MVP hobbles on his leg playing this off but really of course hes not injured. Burchill laughs at MVP as MVP wonders what is funny but Burchill doesnt say anything. MVP says that hes tired of all these freaks around here mainly stating that at Burchill and that hes going to do Smackdown a favor and start ridding them of freaks like you Burchill. MVP walks off but Burchill stops him. Burchill looks at MVP and says that if you ever call me Pirate Paul Burchill a freak again, itll be off with your head! Burchill points the sword at MVP as MVP lets out a big gulp and walks off.
After the break, we come back to the third match of the night, that pitting Kid Kash taking on Psicosis one on one. It is announced that whoever wins this match will move into the Cruiserweight title match next Friday night here on Smackdown which already has Super Crazy and Jamie Noble, due to Super Crazy having beaten Noble twice. Kash and Psicosis put on a good match, which gets the crowd going as they get some decent time for this match. Kash was looking for an early Dead Level but Psicosis was able to use the ropes and spring himself off with a Sliced Bread like maneuver. Psicosis covered but only got the two count. Psicosis hurrily grabs Kash, lifting him back onto his feet as he hits Kash with a DDT. Psicosis makes his way onto the top rope, looking possibly for a Leg Drop but Kash makes his way onto the top ropes too! Both men are standing on the top rope and you can tell this isnt going to be good! Kash and Psicosis both grab one another before leaping off the ropes and they hit a dual neck breaker! Both men throw arms over another at the same time and the ref is confused but counts the win! The referee goes over to the announcer and states that since both men had their hands on each other at the time of the pin fall, both men have advanced onto the title match next week on Smackdown! Noble is wondering what is going on outside, shaking his head in disgust and wondering how that is possible.
We cut backstage after the match to see a video package of the Worlds Strongest Man, Mark Henry play. The video highlights major things in Henrys past few months of dominance such as his matches against Kurt Angle and what not. The video ends with Henry stating that he is the Silverback of the Smackdown Jungle and that there is nobody or nothing that can or will get in his way of becoming the king of the jungle!
We take another break to come back to see Rey Mysterio and Matt Hardy talking backstage. Mysterio asks Hardy how is feeling after earlier tonight when Kennedy punted him down low. Hardy says that he is fine and he thanks Rey for saving him from that attack. Rey says it was no problem and Rey says that hes glad Matt is going to be the Special Referee at SummerSlam so he can try and prevent Kennedy from cheating like he tried to tonight. Hardy says that hes going to call it right down the middle and hell make sure that Kennedy doesnt try and pull something out of his sleeve.
After that short little promo, we head into the ring for our fourth match of the night. It pits one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions, Brian Kendrick going one on one against William Regal. Dave Taylor made his singles debut last week getting a win over London so this week its Regal and Kendricks turn to go at it. This turns out to be a fairly decent match but as always, Regal slows down the match to try and wear down Kendrick. He does a good job as he works on the leg of Kendrick, trying to prevent the high flyer from doing what he does best of course. Kendrick however fights this off whenever he hits a huge enzuigiri. Kendrick was able to fight back while he was down and he hit Regal with a flying forearm! Kendrick gets back up and hits Regal with an arm bar toss sending Regal across the ring. Kendrick hurries himself up before hitting Regal with a dropkick to the face. Taylor tries to interfere but London pulls him off the apron and throws him down onto the ground. Kendrick quickly grabs Regal and runs off the turnbuckles, hitting a Sliced Bread before covering getting the win! London and Kendrick celebrate their win with their manager Ashley Massaro as Regal is down in the ring and Taylor is down on the outside.
We take our final commercial break before the main event tonight to see Kurt Angle backstage with the Miz. The Miz tries to insult Angle during the interview but Angle has nothing to do with it. Angle says hes been in every match in the WWE and that a Triple Threat doesnt scare him. As a matter of fact, he was even in a Triple Threat at SummerSlam before! Angle says that just because the odds are against him once again doesnt mean he cant overcome them. Angle says that he was overlooked at the Olympics and look at him now! Hes got a gold frickin medal! Kurt states that if JBL or Mark Henry have a problem with it, he suggests they man up and do something about it! Angle throws some of his quotes out and ends it with Its true its damn true
Our main event takes place as we see JBL and Finlay team to take on Batista and Mark Henry against Kurt Angle and Bobby Lashley. Probably one of the biggest main events recently on Smackdown as far as star-power is concerned. The match gets a good bunch of time but mainly comes down to the ending. We see Lashley tagged in from Angle and now its Lashley and Finlay in the ring. All hell breaks loose from this point out as Lashley is beating the hell out of Finlay right now, trying to prove a point to the Irishman. Lashley literally picks Finlay up and drives him into each turnbuckle in all four corners of the ring. Lashley seems as if he is going ballistic in the ring as he drives Finlay into a corner and there is a blind tag from Batista. Lashley has no clue as he continues the attack on Lashley. Batista comes into the ring, chop blocking Lashley from behind and Angle looks pissed having no clue that he was made the legal man via the blind tag. Angle steps into the ring and starts throwing punches at Batista before he clotheslines the Animal out of the ring! This brings Mark Henry into the ring but Angle ducks underneath Henry and throws Henry to the outside of the ring! JBL comes charging into the ring but Angle side steps him and then hits a huge Angle Slam! Angle and Lashley both wait for Finlay to get back up as Lashley hits Finlay with a huge Spear! Lashley covers Finlay and gets the win for his team! Lashley and Angle celebrate their win in the ring as we see JBL and Henry backing their way up the ramp. Batista is still down on the outside and Finlay of course is down too. Angle and Lashley celebrate for a bit but all of a sudden the lights go out! Batista was making his way up the ramp at this time now! The ring had been cleared as Angle, Lashley, JBL, and Henry had all ready left as time had passed since Angle and Lashley celebrated their win. Finlay was helped to the back! Batista apparently was going to call out the Undertaker as he had a mic in hand but since the lights were out he cant! Batista was about to go up the ramp whenever a lighting bolt hits the stage and a huge fire starts up. Suddenly a large light points to the rafters as we see Undertakers signature cross hanging from the rafters on fire! The show ends focusing on this signal to Batista that the Undertaker is ready for SummerSlam!

Re: WWE Unleash the Fury
Kennedy kicking off the show was good, he seemed in character. Eh, not too happy about Hardy being made the Guest Ref for the Kennedy vs Rey match, would've much rather seen him just added to the title match to make it a Triple Threat. O inpromptue match? Kennedy gets lucky that Rey didn't end up connecting with an early message there, I wonder if this Matt/Rey friendship can stand the test of time during this angle without one turning on the other
Typically JBL promo sounded alright. Kane dominates poor Nunzio as he'd be expected to, wise booking to put him over in the very repetitive way. Wow, Finlay is only chasing Hornswoggle, and instead gets booked against Lashley for Summerslam. Sounds like a decent mid card match tbh. Meh never liked the pirate Burchill gimmick, but he's good in the ring so a small feud with MVP to put the balla over could work alright. Haha MVP threatened with the short
Hmm Fatal 4 Way made for next week sounds like a goody, but really, this is the kinda match you could've saved for Summerslam to variate from the slew of single matches you have on the card. Owell, atleast SD! will be worth it next week just for this one. Henry has been dominant recently, I wonder who will take him off his high perch? As I said earlier, I dunno if this Matt/Rey friendship will last with the US title belt lingering between them, but for now, Kennedy seems to be the focus of things, so we'll see. Not alot going into most promo's tonight, it's been a quiet show on that front
Good way to keep the tag champs looking strong, picking up the win here for Kendrick over Taylor. It makes you wonder who'll beat L/K for the belts at this rate. Powerful words from Angle to put over the mans intensity is nicely done, would've loved to have seen him lay out that talentless fag Miz, but owell. Ke-razy main event with some quality stars involved and I knew Taker would make a cameo too, ending in calamity and Taker staring down Batista, the faces winning the ME and all looking good heading towards Summerslam
Solid show KOP, nothing special, but then again, you always get by on the basics.

Fans hoping to see Frank Ocean and Chris Brown hanging out in the near future will have to keep waiting as the Odd Future member has fired a shot at his music rival without even saying a word.
In a new photo circulating online, Ocean taunts Chris Breezy with a domestic violence-related shirt.
Team Breezy is about to go crazy as they are not related to Rihanna or the other girls attacked by Brown, but none the less one person in Hollywood is standing up. It's almost forgotten by most what Chris Brown did to Rihanna a few years ago but Frank Ocean is still hanging the R&B's singer dirty laundry out in the air. This week, the Odd Future associate stepped out wearing a Chris Brown "Wanted For Domestic Violence" t-shirt. He even took a picture in the design, which is obviously going viral on-line. Turning his face to the side in the photo, it's still quite clear who the celeb wearing the tee is. (CKHID)
On Odd Future member Earl Sweatshirt's new "Sunday" track, Ocean makes it known his issues with Chris Breezy are still existent.
Earl Sweatshirt's Doris is available to stream in full on Soundcloud right now. Frank Ocean is featured on the track "Sunday," and it's pretty obvious he's taking some shots at Chris Brown that relate to their incident in Los Angeles back in January outside of a recording studio. "Forgot you don't like it rough, I mean he called me a f*ggot. /I was just calling his bluff, I mean how anal am I gonna be when I am aiming my gun? /And why is his mug all bloody? That was a three-on-one. /Standing ovation at Staples, I got my Grammies in gold." (Complex)
Coincidentally, one of Ocean's pals pressed charges against Breezy over their brawl last winter.
A man who claims he was punched and kicked by a member of Chris Brown's entourage during a fight at a recording studio sued the R&B singer on Tuesday for assault and battery. Sha'keir Duarte sued Brown for unspecified damages in Los Angeles Superior Court, claiming he suffered a concussion as well as humiliation and mental anguish as a result of the attack. Brown's attorney Mark Geragos called the case frivolous and said it amounted to an attempted shakedown. (Associated Press)
Back in March, Brown made sure to diffuse speculated issues between him and Ocean following the incident.
"With the Frank Ocean situation, I'll put it like this, it's in the past. Some stuff went down, but it's whatever. It's always sensationalized and always blown out of proportion. I got respect for his music. I got respect for everybody else, so I ain't really trying to really go back down that route. Everything for me is moving forward. I do my music now so I'm good." (Power 106)
Despite the physical confrontation, Ocean issued an open statement in February and said he would not press criminal charges.
"AS A CHILD I THOUGHT IF SOMEONE JUMPED ME IT WOULD RESULT IN ME MURDERING OR MUTILATING A MAN. BUT AS A MAN I AM NOT A KILLER. I'M AN ARTIST AND A MODERN PERSON. I'LL CHOOSE SANITY. NO CRIMINAL CHARGES. NO CIVIL LAWSUIT. FORGIVENESS, ALBEIT DIFFICULT, IS WISDOM. PEACE, ALBEIT TRITE, IS WHAT I WANT IN MY SHORT LIFE. PEACE." (Frank Ocean's Tumblr)

cutting boards
O.K., you've convinced me that I should use a wood cutting board, but I'm worried about germs. How do I keep it clean/safe after cutting raw meat, chicken,etc.? Thanks!
re: escondido123
this is what we do as well. I usually cut raw meat on plastic though.
Don't blame the wooden cutting board thing on me. I've got at least six plastic cutting boards, four full size and two smaller. Each one of them goes straight into the diswasher to be cleaned with detergent and 150 degree water every time we use it.
oil them so moisture (blood) doesn't absorb into it. I have 3 end-grain wood boards that are several years old now, and oil them every couple of months. Other than that, hot water. Seldom even use soap on them and haven't killed anyone yet, or even made them sick.
Do as Escondido says, plus occasional butcher's block wax, but chicken has it's own plastic board.
I just checked wedmd. com which is a health site. They say "Always wash cutting boards, dishes, countertops, and utensils with hot soapy water after they come in contact with raw meat, poultry, and seafood." Full FAQ on salmonella is here: http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/foo...
If I cut meat, I wash it well and then put it in the oven heated to 300 and then turn it off. Cast iron and anything that will rust I dry like that.
Wash with hot soapy water and rinse and dry well. That will take care of most things. Just cut raw chicken on it and you are freaking out about cross contamination, then wash as above and follow with a good spritz of white vinegar. Let sit for 10 min and then rinse and dry.
Who convinced you to use a wood cutting board?
As for germs, it is no more difficult to sanitize a wood cutting board than a plastic cutting board. There are quiet a few research papers conducted on this matter and many have shown a wood board is just as safe as a plastic board and possibly safer. A good place to start is this Dean Cliver:
Back to wood cutting board sanitization, you scrub with soap/detergent and warm water. If necessary, you can then spray it with white vinegar solution or bleach solution and let the solution sit on there for a few minutes, then rinse it again. This is the same procedure for plastic cutting boards as well.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Thanks for the link.
re: Chemicalkinetics
CK, Per your ref: "Manual cleaning" in our experiments has been done with a sponge, hot tapwater, and liquid dishwashing detergent. Mechanical cleaning with a dishwashing machine can be done successfully with plastic surfaces (even if knife-scarred) and wooden boards especially made for this."
I'll keep my plastic boards and keep using the dishwasher. Vs the hand care of the wood boards, this works better in our house.
Wood for fruits and veggies. A good hand wash and dry when done.
Plastic for meat. Into the dishwasher when done.
I have two wooden and three plastic.
I have 2 nice wooden cutting boards, one huge and one regular sized.
I have 7 plastic cutting boards. One huge, 3 regular sized. and 3 more of various smaller sizes.
The plastic gets used for meats and other things that I want to dishwash off (strange odors or pains to scrub/things that stain) and I use the wood for everything else.
If you're freaked out about germs, either use a bleach solution or invest in a bottle of StarSan, which is available at homebrewing websites and brick and mortar stores (i'd be amazed to find one without it), then simply mix it up with water and keep it in a spray bottle. I use it all the time when I've gone crazy with chopping raw chicken or there's the possibility of cross contamination when I'm cooking for large groups or old people. The starsan is flavor free, food safe, and commonly used in the food service industry.
like my wood cutting board for bread and some veggies , but plastic is the best for chicken ,I
always wash the plastic in the dishwasher, the wood after cleaning they get a mineral oil massage, great for wood and my hands:)

- Studio: Warner Bros. Pictures
- Release Date: Jan 29, 2010
- Starring: Danny Huston, Mel Gibson, Ray Winstone
- Summary: Edge of Darkness is an emotionally charged thriller set at the intersection of politics and big business. Thomas Craven is a veteran homicide detective for the Boston Police Department and a single father. When his only child, twenty-four year-old Emma, is murdered on the steps of his home, everyone assumes that he was the target. But he soon suspects otherwise, and embarks on a mission to find out about his daughter's secret life and her killing. His investigation leads him into a dangerous, looking glass world of corporate cover-ups, government collusion and murder – and to shadowy government operative Darius Jedburgh, who has been sent in to clean up the evidence. Craven's solitary search for answers about his daughter's death transforms into an odyssey of emotional discovery and redemption. (Warner Bros.)… Expand

Score distribution:
Positive: 17 out of 34
Mixed: 14 out of 34
Negative: 3 out of 34
Though the experience is nerve-racking and cathartic under Campbell's skilled direction, musings on family and grief and Gibson's intense, but subtle, performance stay with us longest.
A meathead revenge picture, but it's very satisfying. Director Martin Campbell, coming off "Casino Royale," has a style that's blunt and bruising.
Campbell's topnotch production team yields predictably polished results, but the director's decision to revisit the late Troy Kennedy Martin's teleplay, finally, feels lacking.
In Hollywood, all is forgiven if you can deliver the goods. On-screen, at least, there's little difference between this Gibson and the one we remember from earlier films like "Ransom" and "Payback."
An odd duck of a thriller. Quiet, talkative, with the occasional explosion of violence, it has ghosts and characters philosophizing, quoting F. Scott Fitzgerald or blurting insensitive non-sequiturs.
A thriller boasting Mel Gibson's first starring role in eight years, elicits a gigantic wow -- as in ``Wow, does this movie suck!''

NavAApr 17, 2010Mel Gibson is a gifted actor and director. Forget the biased reviews from critics with a political axe to grind regarding Mel. The movie is excellent entertainment. Highly recommended.… Expand
BibliotechaS.Jan 30, 2010Excellent film! I'd say it's THE best film of the first decade of the 21st century. The obvious assassination attempts on Gibson's real life personal character, or maybe even life, are obvious in the snide reviews by so-called "critics" who, I believe, really didn't even sit down and Watch the movie. This was reminiscent of, and dare I say, quite better than, The Departed, which won numerous Oscars. Come Oscar time, this excellent movie will not get recognition, because you-know-who controls who wins, who gets nominated, and who gets shunned, i.e. anyone who is FREE and speaks the truth about the evil that pervades our world, and country.… Expand
PeteFeb 3, 2010Enjoyed the whole movie, great action through out.
RobRFeb 13, 2010I never really fully believed in the bad guys, but I was never really bored either.
Feb 22, 2013Edge of Darkness is a dark and gritty crime thriller, based on a 1986 British Mini-series of the same name. The story was actually pretty good, filled with twists, turns, crosses, and double crosses, but the problem was that it was all too familiar. Murdered daughter, angry father looking for justice, Mel Gibson on a crazy rampage....and why are these things always in Boston? Does Hollywood have some secret underground bet about who will have the worst accent? That being said, Gibson, (minus the accent), was terrific. Say what you will about him as a person, but when it comes to a dark, action thriller, there is still no one better than Mel Gibson. His character was very reminiscent of Porter in Payback, intense, strong, and smart as a whip. As I said before, this is a good story, made even better by Gibson, but it's a familiar story that's been done to death! Edge of Darkness is very entertaining and has some nice twists, but ultimately it's not much different from a dozen other films with a similar tagline.… Expand
Dec 2, 2010I think it was great for Mel Gibson to be back in an action movie where AGAIN he is playing the role of a cop. He does a great job but i honestly have to say that the spark dies after the beginning and takes a while to come back. The first time i watched it i actually fell asleep which of course made me watch it again. Then i started to appreciate more about it and enjoy it a bit more.… Expand

Mission Complete! Women's Basketball Delivers on Operation: "Sock it to Me"
Thursday, January 20, 2011
Arlington, Va. – Marymount University women's basketball teamed up with the Arlington Street People's Assistance Network for Operation: "Sock it to Me". The Saints collected necessity goods in an effort to help the homeless through the winter holidays.
"I think the efforts of our Marymount community to help supply the items for the care packages was a big success," said head coach Ashlee Courter. "A-SPAN was grateful for our help and I am proud of the energy and time my team invested in seeing this project through to the very end."
Sock it to Me turned into a campus event when players recruited fellow student-athletes, campus and community members to donate items such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, razors, combs, hair brushes, hand sanitizer, deodorant, lotion, body wash, ChapStick, Band-Aids, small packets of Kleenex and snack bars.
All 12 Marymount teams contributed to the project along with the Lee Center staff and a special donation from local dentist, Dr. Michael Rogers.
With the donations the women's basketball team put together 90 complete care packages and donated the additional items to A-SPAN. The Saints also collected a total of $200 at their home games to donate to the project.

Hong Kong, 1991 (MIFF 1991, Hong Kong)
Director: Tian Zhuangzhuang
From Tian Zhuangzhuang, the director of Horse Thief, comes this unique re-telling of the long reign of Tz'u-hsi, the Empress Dowager of turn-of-the-century China, as seen through the memory of Li Lianying, her chief eunuch.The story slips back and forth in time within a forty year scope, as the elderly Li remembers scenes from his life in the Forbidden City, serving the "Old Buddha", as Tz'u-hsi was often called. Li is a very powerful figure in her empire, more powerful than the Emperor himself. Although a slave, he is also adviser, confidant and trusted friend.
This strange and fascinating relationship between empress and eunuch, spanning decades of Machiavellian manoeuvres, executions, betrayals, and the ever-increasing encroacliment of the Western world, is beautifully played by Liu Xiaoqing (Red Sorghum) and the always wonderful Jiang Wen in the lead roles. By turns a tender, pitiless and ultimately tragic tale, sumptuously designed and photographed, Li Lianying, the Imperial Eunuch is a fresh and unexpected angle on this well-trod historical epoch. What's also notable about this colourful and lavish period piece is that Hong Kong and mainland Chinese filmmakers co-operated to place die best talents from both industries into this seamless co-production.
"I prepared for playing Li Lianying by reading everything I could find about the man himself and by spending many hours talking with a real-life eunuch, one of the last survivors from the Imperial Court. From him, I learnt that eunuchs, being neither male nor female, had incredibly rich fantasy lives. They became something more than ordinary people, dreaming a world of their own into existence." - Jiang Wen

We all know that the Wisconsin Badgers and Kentucky Wildcats have no problem hitting shots. With a 7-foot Frank Kaminsky you wouldn't think grabbing boards would be a problem, But the Wildcats have a weapon of their own.
Frank Kaminsky was asked about his NBA chances after having this great run in the NCAA tournament, he said he didn't even want to talk about the NBA right now. But if you look at Kentucky's Julius Randle and the other starting five on the Kentucky team, none of them may be in college, all might be in the NBA.
Julius Randle was the midwest's region's most valuable player, he was SEC freshman of the year, all conference, and in all 4 NCAA tourney games, he has registered double-doubles, he's putting up 15 pts, and grabbing almost 11 rebounds a game, he will be tough to handle for the Badgers.

We say "You look back and you think what an amazing array of caps and medals, and the longevity of his career. You speak to him and he just wants to be remembered as a hard working football player and that's what stood out." – Gary Neville
Hit me with the facts Becks played 394 matches for United and scored 85 goals during his 11 years in M16, winning 10 major honours in that time. On top of that, he is second in the list of all-time appearance-makers for England with 115 caps. He is the only Englishman to win the league title in four different countries following his time with Real Madrid, LA Galaxy and Paris St Germain.
Tell me something I might not know David spent a season on loan at Preston North End, where he played with David Moyes. "Everybody who was part of that team still remembers him and still wants to talk about how they played in a team with David Beckham," Moyes said. "I'm no different."

About John Lauro
After visiting Greenville, ME for 3 days, I put money down on a home! The North Woods area TRULY embraces the meaning behind Maine's slogan, 'Maine, the way life should be!'. I have enjoyed both the area and the people of this town for 14 years and counting. My kids have gown up vacationing here, and I hope their kids will enjoy it someday as well. Being from Philadelphia, PA this cabin is the PERFECT retreat to get away from it all!
John Lauro purchased this cabin in 2000
Why John Lauro chose Greenville
This is a comfortable, fully equipped house, secluded, private, and yet 5.5 miles from activities downtown. Relax by a fire outside and enjoy the night air and millions of stars in the sky, or sit comfortably inside by a wood stove fire, play games, watch satellite TV, or just have good conversations with family and friends. Morning coffee on the large front porch on a nice day makes it all worth it!
What makes this cabin unique
Once I saw the winter night sky for the first time, I knew I was home! I am not a star gazer, nor versed in astronomy, but the first time I saw the constellation Orion, and could view the ENTIRE archer profile, I knew this place was something special. I will also never forget one morning sitting on the front porch, drinking my coffee, when a bull moose came walking down the driveway, stopped, and stared at me for a good 4-5 minutes. We were just being good neighbors and enjoying the morning sun!

Take initiative and empower yourself with knowledge now!
First year students on academic standing are required to complete the CAA Academic Hold Module in their CANVAS account. Students completing the academic standing Hold Module will learn how to best improve their GPA and work more effectively with FGCU's student success resources.
If you are actively on the Academic Standing List with a status of: Academic Warning / Probation / or Probation after Suspension you must complete the CAA Academic Standing hold module assessment with a score of 100%.
Registration changes for spring 2015 may not be made through your academic advisor until the following requirements are met:
First complete the Academic Hold Module in CANVAS
first step in the process is to complete the Academic Hold Module in Canvas and
requirements outlined here:
*Academic Standing students should proceed to complete the CAA Academic Standing Hold Module in Canvas
Review Academic Standing Policy in the FGCU catalog here
Future requirements
As a student on academic warning, academic probation or probation after suspension you will have a hold on your registration restricting you from web registering for classes via Gulfline. Academic Warning and Academic Probation status required first year students to meet with the Center for Academic Achievement and their respective advisor in order to register for the following semester.
In order to gain clearance to register for courses through an academic advisor you must complete the following tasks in the Center for Academic Achievement CANVAS Module:
Students with 0-29 credits:
Complete the Academic Hold Module on CANVAS and score 100%
Students with 30 or more credits:
Once the CANVAS hold module is completed it is suggested that students with 30 or more credits also consult with an academic advisor to discuss their spring 2015 class registration.
Enrollment in Effective Learning (SLS 1501) for spring 2015 is highly
Meet with your academic advisor and the CAA as soon as possible. Choosing your classes wisely is important and you will have more choices if you register early. Meeting with your advisor as soon as possible is encouraged to provide more course selection options. Remember, you will not be able to register unless you are also in compliance with CAA's retention program so make your appointments early. You will also not be permitted to register if you have holds (other than the Academic Standing Hold). You are advised to view and resolve active holds.
Be aware of important deadlines. You have the week of add/drop to attend class, review syllabi and make sure you are comfortable with the instructor, subject matter, and course content. If you have concerns about your potential for success in any courses consider making schedule changes with your advisor asap. As a last resort you may withdraw from a course with no academic penalty and no refund prior to the posted deadline about 2 months into the semester- see academic calendar for posted deadlines.
Grade Forgiveness.
If you have taken an FGCU course and received a grade of C- or lower you may
repeat the course in a future semester at FGCU for grade forgiveness.
The old grade will be removed from your GPA and the new grade will be calculated,
providing the quickest way to improve your GPA. You will need to submit the
Grade Forgiveness form to the Registrar�s Office by the deadline noted on the
academic calendar near the end of the semester in which you retake the course.
You will have time to consider whether to use one of your two grade forgiveness
Frequently Asked Questions:
I have met
with CAA and my advisor, why do I still have a hold on my registration?
I took a course for grade forgiveness and it wasn�t factored into my GPA yet, why not?
If you did
not turn in the grade forgiveness form to the Registrar�s Office (1st floor
McTarnaghan Hall), the grade forgiveness was not applied. If you turned in the
form after the deadline the grade forgiveness will not be applied until the end
of the following semester after grades post.
I only earned 6 credits
last semester because I failed courses, should I enroll full time this
I am working 20-30 hours per week. What is a realistic load of classes?
Only you
can determine what the right load is for you, however if you are
working more than 25 hours a week you should consider lessening your course load
to accommodate for the time your job takes out of your schedule.
Should I change my major?
I am an
undecided major and was bored with my classes last semester. Any
I attend class, spend a lot of time studying, and do my homework and I still can't seem to earn decent grades. Is there anything else I can do?
Even when you put in the effort sometimes it is still tough to earn good grades. Consider working with your academic advisor and/or the Center for Academic Achievement to learn more about how you can tailor your academic approach to how you best process information. Taking a learning style inventory can help you determine insightful information about how you learn and most effectively work with academic content. Once you determine your learning style you can strategize more efficient means of course preparation.

- Good food, atmosphereOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/1/2014Good experience except that management seems unaware that there is a discount for Edison theatre attendees on Fri. & Sat. (advertised in Edison program).Special Features:
- good before a showOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/1/2014Seated right away, prompt service, very noisy, a little mix-up with who got what, took salads away and brought them back, special salad was delicious. Tables a bit close togetherSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing!GlindaDined on 11/1/2014This was my first time at Ibby's this school year, and somehow it has improved tenfold!

I will definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- activeacrossVIPDined on 10/31/2014lot's of washu faculty/students, enjoy the energy.
- gateDined on 10/29/2014We ordered the wonderful 3 sisters salad. The chef forgot one of the sisters. there was no corn in the salad. the incredience listed corn, beans, and squash? We ate the salad with out the corn, because it was so tasteful, but we missed the corn ingredient. The presentation of the salad was beautiful. Thank you for keeping it on the menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good but boringFreshman15Dined on 10/28/2014bring back the smore in a jar!! also change up the entreesSpecial Features:
- ReservationsOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/28/2014After making reservations, it took about 15 minutes to actually get seated. We did have a medium sized party, but it was almost pointless to make the reservations. It also took a while for us to get a dessert menu, which was a little frustrating since all of our party was done with their main courseSpecial Features:
- Expensive but Worth ItOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/10/2014I went into Ibby's fully expecting to spend $50-$60 in meal points and get some decent food, but the restaurant definitely delivered more. Ibby's has a fantastic atmosphere and is perfect for a date. I probably won't be going back anytime soon (I am a broke college kid), but my experience was great and I'll definitely keep Ibby's in mind when I prepare for my next splurge-worthy gathering.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Ibby's is a treatunusualfareDined on 9/27/2014Ibby's has a limited menu but the food is great, there are sufficient selections to please everyone, and it is worth the trip (the small eatery is tucked away in the student center/university campus). Highly recommended!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Eats -headdiningdivaDined on 9/27/20144 of us dined on Sat. and also had tickets for the 8 PM show at the Edison, which we conveyed to our waiter. Our dinner reservation was for 6:30 - thought that would be enough time. Service went well until time for dessert. Reminded our waiter again re the 8 PM show. Waited 15 minutes and no dessert or waiter so we asked another to cancel our order, and had no time to spare getting to the theater. The young man who waited on us was very pleasant and served us well earlier. 2 ladies ordered the pita special...the filling and accompanying French fries were very good but the pita was tough. House salad and lettuce rolls were delicious. Next time will reserve a half hour earlier. Hope they have pumpkin pound cake back on the menu by then.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very tasty food for buffet styleRaesmomDined on 9/17/2014My co-worker and I went for the Southern cuisine menu day and every food selection on the buffet style serving taste delicious and the presentation was nice too. We also like the atmosphere of the restuarant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- lovely place, overpricedgourmandDined on 9/16/2014while the place and the service was terrific, the food quality does not come close to matching the price. We left with an $80 bill for the two of us.
- FantasticOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014To put it simply, Ibby's was amazing. The food was great, and the service was quick and friendly. I ordered the beet salad, which was fantastic, as well as the gnocchi, which was prepared excellently. In addition, the prices were incredibly reasonable. All in all, I would recommend Ibby's to anyone interested in eating somewhere with a nice and pleasant ambience, as well as anyone interested in fantastic food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Ibby's is back!SarahsDadDined on 8/27/2014Classics dishes are complimented by some new interesting dishes. Very welcoming and friendly.Special Features:
- The following 105 reviews are from the Ibby's - Washington University reviews archive.
- Just OkayhbslingshotDined on 5/14/2014The food sounded good on the menu but was generally disappointing.Special Features:
- Too understaffedHelenaDined on 5/2/2014We has to wait for twenty minutes before our waitress could take our food orders. Then it's another half hour wait for a simple dessert. Then it's another 20 mins before we can finally pay. We rarely see our waitress because she was always busy as hell to serve other people etc. you SERIOUSLY NEED MORE WAITERS AND Waitresses. OTHERWISE WE WILL JUST LEAVE. IT's ridiculous SLOW and they are TOO TIRED TO FUNCTION WELL.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KristenDined on 5/2/2014The food was very good and during a busy workday I enjoy having a quick lunch via the buffet. However, I made a lunch-time reservation and they made us wait for the table to clear, despite other two-tops being available. I believe they even asked the guests at that table to leave. So one table was kicked out, we were made to wait for our table and there were many vacant tables!Special Features:
- Lunch Buffet is tasty!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 4/24/2014I have been twice for the lunch buffet (Tuesday and Thursday) and have left full and happy both times.Special Features:
- Good Service/Food, Poor selectionRegularCustomerDined on 4/19/2014The items on Ibby's menu are great, and the service has consistently impressed me. But I wish there were more options on the menuSpecial Features:

- Great on campus fine diningbobeVIPDined on 4/2/2014Really great food and service in a come from the atmosphere right on campus.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Greek CuisineJanisDined on 4/1/2014Not one of my favorites. The last group I took there decided to go somewhere else when they saw the menu. There was only two of us today, so we did stay. The food was good, but just kind of weird.Special Features:
- Good food, good serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 3/28/2014The waiters were very pleasant and attentive. The food was pretty good. The chicken dish was great, especially with the sauce. Even the breast meat was juicy and well seasoned and the skin was pleasantly crisp. The sides were okay - the quinoa dish (i think that is what the grain was) with orange was okay by itself as was the cobb salad, but tasting orange and bleu cheese in succession was a strange sensation. The soup was tasty though salty. The rice dish and the broccoli were very good. I think that this meal was not quite as good as most of the lunch buffets that I have had at Ibbys but all of my experiences have followed the trend of the protein being quite a bit better than the sides.I would recommend this to a friend.
- good food, but...PurpleLadyDined on 3/22/2014We like to eat it Ibby's before we go to the Edison Theater. We had dinner for 5. Dinner was good. Server seemed frazzled. She knew we had theater tickets. After we waited more than 20 minutes for dessert, we told her to cancel the order. We were going to be late. Unfortunately, she took an attitude with us as if we had done something wrong.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Obvious my food had been leftOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 3/19/2014Obvious my food had been left under a heat lamp. Was soggy and gross. Did not enjoy. Need a new chef Ibby's used to be great but the past few times I've fine they've really messed up my food. The service is great. Food is lacking.
- A great on-campus resourceJeffDined on 3/19/2014Ibby's has become a valuable alternative to the faculty club for hosting visiting guests. The food is fresh and creative and it's nice to expose visitors to a mix of customers that includes undergraduate students.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- First time at this restaurant.OTKFVIPDined on 3/6/2014First time at this restaurant. We weren't sure whether it would be very good; it's located at the student center on the main campus of Washington University, so we thought that Ibby's might be a typical college-student sort of place. But it's not. It's a beautiful little restaurant, in a relatively quiet corner of the beautiful Danforth campus center, with a very good (but small) lunch menu and buffet, and attentive service. We'll have to go back and try it for dinner sometime.
- Very pleasant staff, foodKBL4CarsDined on 2/26/2014Very pleasant staff, food was good and service was excellent Pricey $$ for what it is.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious salads and sandwiches.RhatDined on 2/25/2014Delicious salads and sandwiches. Lunch buffet a good option for variety. Lot of university students and administrators so it can get noisy.Special Features:
- Ibby's is wonderful. I haveeeterDined on 2/21/2014Ibby's is wonderful. I have never been disappointed in the food or the service. Whether you're dining alone or with seven other people, Ibby's is a great place to spend an evening. And best of all, they take meal points! (Oh and if you do eat there, you absolutely must try the gnocchi.)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprise Date NightLiciaLee13Dined on 2/15/2014I made reservations for Ibby's as a surprise for my boyfriend who was visiting from out of town. He was pleasantly surprised by how nice of a restaurant it was for being on campus. We both enjoyed our food and the setting (which was great for couples). It was a great first experience for both of us, and I will definitely be going back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was excellent, with akathyDined on 2/11/2014Food was excellent, with a healthy and creative touch! I enjoyed the kale salad as well as the white bean and sausage soup! And of course the dessert menu with the fresh ice cream and sorbet selections was terrific!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A hidden gem of St Louis!JKuss80Dined on 2/1/2014Ibby's at Washington University is the only restaurant in St Louis that you might sit next to an elderly Ladue couple going to a show or a college kid in pajamas eating tuna carpaccio and writing a term paper on their MacBook. To say the food is upscale for an on campus restaurant is an understatement. They feature a seasonally changing menu, nightly burger and entree specials, and their house special gnocchi. All in all, a great place tucked into Wash U's campus.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bad Lunar New Year Asian MenuMichelleDined on 1/29/2014All of the items at the Lunar New Year lunch buffet we're truly not enjoyable. Super disappointed because I eat there a lot. Had to have bananas foster as the main part of my meal.Special Features:
- Kale SaladJanisDined on 1/28/2014First time I've had a salad made with Kale. I thought it would be bitter, but tasted great. Darrius Hudson (who joined me for lunch) drinks Kale in power drinks, and he loved another purpose for the Kale he has at home.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- This time... inconsistentPurpleLadyDined on 1/24/2014We consistently eat here before we go to the Edison. Debbie is a great server who is attentive, knows the food, & goes the extra way. The fried calamari was outstanding & the pork over risotto wonderful. BUT... food was inconsistent. The hamburger for one guest was cold! A request had been made for more pita to go with an appetizer & it was brought to the table long after the food was gone. And, sadly, the coffee took a VERY long time to arrive. Having said all this, YES, we will return. We still enjoyed being there even though it was inconsistent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food quality is not good any moreOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 12/14/2013The quality of the food in this restaurant has decreased severely over the past years. I ordered Burger- it was burnt. We ordered calamari- they have changed the sauce again, we were expecting marinara but they brought some mayo sauce, also no seasoning on the calamari. Sauce on the gnocchi was super creamy and cheesy! As for desert, because it was the end of semester before they went into holiday, they served vanilla ice cream instead of banana in banana's foster and salted caramel in apple crumble- both deserts lost their edges. We really likes the Bistro fries tho!Special Features:
- The food was sub-par and wayOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 12/13/2013The food was sub-par and way over priced. I would not go back. Good service though.
