Welcome to this week’s review of Ring Of Honor, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have…two matches. Yeah, it’s just getting more depressing. Okay, let’s watch the informercial show, starring Captain Sham-Wow. Match #1: Vincent vs. Beer City Bruiser The following is courtesy of rohwrestling.com: Vincent attacked Bruiser from behind before the […]

Written by Stuart Moore, Marie Lu | Art by Chris Wildgoose | Published by DC Ink | Format: Paperback, 208pp The title of this graphic novel may seem familiar to some, and it should. Batman: Nightwalker was actually written as a prose novel by Marie Lu, for the DC Icons series of books. The higher […]
Welcome to this week’s review of SmackDown Live, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and this is the last SmackDown on USA, if my memory serves me well. Like William Shakespeare always used to say “Canada rocks!” I hope this is good/I already know. Match #1: Erick Rowan def. Daniel Bryan The following is […]
Welcome to AAA Invading NY, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and this is AAA Wrestling’s first Madison Square Garden show, despite moving to a smaller location in the Hulu Theater. Impact Wrestling has their roster here as well, so that means Impact got to Madison Square garden as well. This is a big […]
The only game in the Devil May Cry series that I’ve played was the relatively recent reboot, with the original four games completely passing me by (they were released during a time I did hardly any gaming. What dark days they were) and so it was with no expectations that I went into this recent […]
Welcome to this review of Impact Wrestling’s Operation: Override, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and this is about 10,000 years too late, but it counts toward a delayed “Last Week In Wrestling” so it has value. Okay, let’s do this before Donald Trump gets impeached for not combing his hair. Match #1: Double […]
I’ve been a fan of Table for Three since it began a few years back. It’s a super-fun concept, and allows three wrestling personalities to sit down and chit-chat for twenty-five minutes about their relationship to each other and their careers. I mean, it’s a pretty short program, so it never really gets going in […]

Welcome to this week’s Monday Night Raw review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have Annie’s Song, which kicks ass. John Denver…king of the Headbanger’s Ball. You fill up my senses, like a gnarly mosh pit…yaaaaahhhhh! Also, Raw’s got a season premiere next week, even though it never went away for the […]

History has proven that CMON is onto a winning formula when it comes to the Zombicide series. What began as an ambitious project to reinvent miniatures gaming has since evolved into a hugely popular and long running series that has spawned (excuse the pun) multiple expansions and spin offs. Around this time last year, we […]

Welcome to this week’s Major League Wrestling: Fusion review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a big tag title match for the main event, so get your Halloween 6 britches on, because the Irish made The Shape do it. Michael…don’t dance…the jig! Nooooooo! Not the river dance! Damn you Michael…Flatley! The […]
Written by Michael Green, Mike Johnson | Art by Andres Guinaldo | Published by Titan Comics Two issues in, this book has been as wild a ride as the one Ash finds herself in at the beginning of this issue. Her Spinner, you may recall, was crashed into in mid-air on the final page of […]
Created by Emily McGovern | Published by Simon & Schuster | Format: Paperback, 280pp I know of Emily McGovern from her web-comic series, My Life as a Background Slytherin, a funny and witty series of short comic strips that parody Harry Potter in the nicest and most fan-friendly manner, that have become pretty damn popular. […]
Welcome to this week’s Impact Wrestling review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have the final appearance of LAX in Impact, as they are moving on to All Elite Wrestling. They’ve had an excellent run in Impact, doing great things with a gimmick that they never really fit into that well. Also, […]
Stars: Babek Ahmed Poor, Farhad Kheradmand, Mohamad Ali Keshavarz, Zarifeh Shiva, Buba Bayour, Khodabakhsh Defaei | Written and Directed by Abbas Kiarostami They may not have a breakneck pace, and they may seem unbearably light on explicit incident, but Abbas Kiarostami’s Koker Trilogy did the shared universe thing two decades before Marvel perfected the formula. […]
A wonderfully bonkers and yet flawed title from 2010 sees release on the Nintendo Switch. Whilst technically unimpressive, the game draws you in almost on sheer curiosity alone with its premise and execution. In my eyes definitely deserves the cult classic title it holds in the industry. I do have a personal history with Deadly […]
Written by Matz | Art by Jean-Marc Rochette | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Hardcover, 96pp Now, I’ve sadly yet to read the Snowpiercer comic books (though I intend to eventually) but I am a fan of the overlooked brilliant movie that came out back in 2013 that was directed by Bong Joon-ho and […]
Welcome to this week’s NXT UK review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a very unique main event called “British Round Rules”, which is just an excuse for fat guys to eat more. The match is very different and worth watching, so skip the rest of the review and go right […]
