I'll tell you what.. I guess that tweet wasn't lying about Monday Night Raw...IYKYK. We've got A LOT to talk about.. and a crash out is on the horizon. -Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Liv Morgan Liv Morgan came to the ring with Dom to give a promo, explaining her actions last week with Nikki Bella. In this, she also called out Iyo Sky.. and she wants another title shot. Iyo came to the ring as well, and it all but seemed like this was a story ready to kick off. -Ivy Nile vs. Stephanie Vaquer vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Asuka (Queen of the Ring) This match was SO much better than I thought it was going to be overall. I really had this match between two women, and that was Vaquer and Asuka. All women did wonderful, and work so well together. We did see Rhea come out and cost Raquel in return from Rhea's match. And in the end, it was Asuka that got the win! She will now face Alexa Bliss this Friday! That match.. should be very good. It will be interesting t...
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,
