WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown/Review

It just dawned on me that I never did my Smackdown Rundown... and I am so upset. Let's just say it was a busy and full weekend for me. Regardless, this week for wrestling is going to be HUGE.. so bare with me, as it will be ALOT! I think I will have a blog every single day from Saturday-Tuesday... I might even have two in one day. Saturday is TWO PPVs.. in Wrestlepalooza and AEW All Out.... I WILL be watching AEW first and LIVE so you can expect the tweets. I am unsure about watching Wrestlepalooza in real time due to AEW but I will be tweeting as best as possible when I do watch it. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking off: John Cena We had a pretty dang good promo with Cena and talking about Brock... A good bit of this confused me.. seeing that Brock has only been on Smackdown and not Raw leading up to their match on Saturday. I wish there was a little more. With this.. this makes me believe the match itself isn't going to end clean and will m...

AEW Dynamite (July 3rd) Rundown

Happy 4th of July, everyone! I hope everyone is having a great day and celebrating safely. Last night was Wednesday Night Dynamite and boy... was it a hell of a show! We have a lot to talk about and A LOT going on the next few days, so let's get into it! 

We kick off the show with Pac and Bryan Danielson for the Owen Hart Cup. Honestly, I was not expecting this match to go this hard. Like, woah. This match delivered in every way possible, and really gave an importance of winning the match to move on. I was fully expecting Pac to get the win, however this wasn't the case. I am wondering how they will move forward with Pac now that he has lost this. It looks like we will be getting a Bryan Danielson run coming up? Maybe... Let's see who that wild card is.. shall we?

As we go backstage we see MJF talking with Danny. We will be seeing Danny and Will fight for the title in the main event and it seems to be a tense one. MJF does ask to be in Danny's corner, and with Daddy Magic's blessing.. it's done. 

Women's Owen Hart Cup: Kris Statlander vs Willow Nightingale 

This match was wonderful and really added to their feud. Also.. did you see Willow THROW Kris down the ramp? Because WOAH BABY I did not expect that. Willow got that win, but I still have this feeling that this feud isn't over by a long shot. I am so happy to see Willow win, however I have this feeling we will not see a 2 time winner in this. 

I did forget to mention.. before the Willow/Kris match we saw a heck of a promo from Mark Brisco. It was revealed that Mark will be the 1st member in Blood and Guts to take on The Elite. This  makes me so excited! I am interested to find how the others that will join him. Not long after Mark announced that, Jack Perry attacked him from behind. Kyle O'Riley did try and make a save but was taken out by Okada. After the elite made themselves known, The Acclaimed ran down to send them packing. More to this fued?

Britt Baker RETURNS to AEW Dynamite

 I thought this was wonderful, and just love Britt all around. She has been missed very much, and I am exicted to see what is coming up for her. Britt did talk about her injuries that she has been healing form.. and also revealed that she had a TIA (mini stroke) and was in the hospital. I cannot imagine how scary that was for her, and I am glad that she is fully healed and cleared. Britt also expressed her thankfulness to everyone at that time. This was sadly interrupted by the CEO herself making her way to the ring. I thought it was a nice tough that she was basically "disrespecting" her by making them set up around here for the celebration. Mercedes and Britt has some pretty tense words and gave the picture that we would be seeing them at All In next month. I don't know about you, but I am for it! 

Samoa Joe, Hook, and Shibata vs Cage of Agony 

Yall know how it goes with me... I don't care for Cage of Agony, at all. Are they terrible? No. They are just not my cup of tea. I though the overall match (fighting wise) was good. I want to see more (and for a while) of Joe, Hook, and Shibata.. hopefully in the trios champ category. Chris Jericho and his "learning tree" character is really pushing my limit to watch. It's WAY over done and it's just plain annoying. While I love Chris, he is just one of those people that can play a character so good. This time.. it's just too good. I still feel the same about The Miz. I love him, but the character is overwhelming sometimes. Anyway, the whole thing with Chris.. even the crowd is over it. That has to say something... Regardless, Joe, Hook, and Shibata got the win! However that was short lived with Big Bill, Bryan Keith and Jericho making an attack. 

Jeff Jarrett vs WILD CARD (SPOILERS)

There was SO much talk about who this could be. The last I thought was Christian Cage, maybe? But nope, I was wrong and should have went with my first guess. With a new entrance and brand new music, it was none other than Hangman Adam Page. We are getting a dark and pissed off Hangman! After JJ had his emotional interview/promo about what this tournament meant.. I felt this was adding injury to insult. However, this match was pretty dang good. It was brutal in my opinion, and it really set the tone for moving forward with Hangman. Adam Page did gain the win to move on to the next round!

We saw a backstage segment with Hangman and the Bucks. We all kind of thought Hangman was the final member at B&G but it doesn't appear that way, for now. We have 3 weeks (I think) to see if that will stick or not.

Will Ospreay vs Daniel Garcia (International Championship)

MJF did what he said, and was in Danny's corner. On the other hand, we saw Will alone. This comes after Will said he wanted to leave the Don Callis family. The match.. oh my God. Took me fully by surprise! We did see Will "no sell" some hits.. and that threw me for a loop. I cannot imagine how Will is feeling after his match from Forbidden Door. We saw MJF circling the ring and really cheering on Danny. This seemed to help Danny mid way through the match, and got him going again after some down time. This match was fast paced and in my opinion hard hitting. There were a few times I thought the match was won! Seriously.. on the edge of my seat! MJF did his best to get Danny to use the diamond ring to win the  match, but Danny refused. As he did, Will hit Danny with Hidden Blade.. getting the pin for the win. I hated to see it, and really did think that Danny was going to win this. What I didn't expect, was what happened next. While I KNEW MJF was going to turn, I didn't expect it to happen like this. MJF hit Danny below the belt. Danny was then busted open and beaten up pretty rough. Ospreay and other officials chased him off to end the show. We knew it was coming.. ugh. It just really sucked to see it happen like this. 

Overall: 9.3/10

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I thought this Dynamite was AMAZING! The story lines are going so well, and I feel the build of All In is just starting. I think the All In card is going to be insane.. so many good stories, and so many potential signings and returns are incoming. Only time will tell. I am very interested to see the outcome of all of the next week or even potentially on Collision. 

Don't forget we have Friday Night Smackdown coming tomorrow and MIB on Saturday! I'll be LIVE on Twitter posting all the updates for MIB, so be sure you are following!

xoxo,
Chels

WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

It's the Smackdown after Summer Slam.. and boy do we have a rundown for you. I don't know all what I expected from this, but it was a ride.. let me tell you.  **ALSO.. MAJOR THANK YOU to my 1,000 followers on Twitter! I made a post talking about how I really wanted to get 1k before the end of the month and y'all SHOWED OUT in a big way! It's so nice to have everyone, and I hope we can have a blast together!  Let's get into it! -Kicking off Smackdown: John Cena I really enjoyed this overall, but what I didn't like... was Logan Paul coming out. This wasn't on my "I want this match" list.. but it is what it is, I guess. It looks like we are getting the two at Clash in Paris later on in the month. We did see Drew McIntyre and Cody come into play, and the fact we are also getting a tag match later in the night.  -Motor City Machine Guns vs. JC Mateo and Talla Tonga Not happy. Solo made it clear that MFT was coming after the tag titles, which... we know ...

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown Blog

What a Monday Night Raw on Netflix before Money in the Bank on Saturday! This one had it's ups and downs, but.. we got through it. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking Off: CM PUNK We saw a little promo talking about Money in the Bank.. seeing that his triple threat was the main event. It wasn't long until we saw Sami come out as well.. planting little seeds here and there for what could happen during said match.  -Women's Money in the Bank Qualifier: Stephanie Vaquer vs. Ivy Nile vs. Liv Morgan I enjoyed this match very much, and of course it was nice to see Stephanie Vaquer join the main roster. Sadly, we knew the out come before the match even started. It was kind of obvious Ivy wouldn't be moving forward (even tho it would be nice to see her in such a match), but it was a toss up. While it COULD have been interesting if Liv was involved.. it was actually Stephanie that picked up the win. Looks like someone will be booking double duty...

Summer Slam Night 1 AND Night 2 Results/Reaction/Review

Summer Slam has come and gone.. and BOY... did we have one hell of a time. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!  Night 1: -Roman Reigns and Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed This kicking off was pretty good in my opinion. While I do think the match wasn't one to blow your mind... it was still pretty dang good overall. In the end, we did see Roman and Jey pick up the win. This isn't what I thought would happen, but it is understandable moving forward (esp after watching Monday Night Raw). -Judgment Day (c) vs. Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair -Women's Tag Titles This match was pretty solid over all. All women did wonderful together and I enjoyed it! I feel like this match had so much on it in the first place, and there were so many people getting their hopes up for a Liv pop up. Sadly, that did not happen. We however.. did see Alexa and Charlotte pick up the win to win the tag titles! I am so happy for both women and hope they do this story ri...
