WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown

We are so close to the road to Wrestlemania! We are a little over a month away from the Royal Rumble and things are getting HOT! Our next big WWE program will be Monday Night Raw: One Year on Netflix and things could change in a big way. Let's not forget outside of that.. we do have an AEW PPV in a few weeks as well. We have a lot to talk about from Raw, so let's get into it! Kicking off: Gunther After his win over Cena in his final match.. things were up to 11 with this opening. I don't give a damn what anyone says.. this was amazing. You can hate Gunther all you like (or even Triple H) but that doesn't change that he is now one of the best in the business. I love this for him. I love the "I don't give a shit" attitude.. the arrogant vibe, and the shit eating smile. It's perfect and I can't wait to see where go with this next. I did see them teasing AJ Styles... which would be pretty damn good as well.  The Usos vs. New Day I don't like it. We...

WWE Smackdown (July 26th) Rundown

We are only ONE week away from Summer Slam, and things are heating up! This Smackdown was recorded due to WWE being in Japan for a summer show. We have a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!

-LA Knight vs Santos Escobar

While I am not a huge fan of Santos, this match was pretty good overall. I can see this builds his momentum, but also LA Knight as we go into the Logan Paul match. I am REALLY pushing to see LA win.. he needs this, seriously. He is so over. In the end, LA Knight got the win. However, this didn't stop the action. It wasn't until after the match that we see Paul come out with a beat down to end the segment. I think this feud has been great, and the story has been put together beautifully. 

-Backstage we see that Loa's eye was injured from last week. However, this didn't stop the Bloodline. Tama and Jacob will be in the tag team battle later on in the show. I thought this was pretty stupid, and just kind of gives it all away. We are gonna act like they aren't gonna win. 

-Jade Cargill/Bianca Belair Promo

 We knew this was coming. Jade and Bianca want a rematch, and honestly at this point.. let them have it. Alba and Isla have been champs since CATC and it's been awful. No matches, no action... it's been pretty rough. I love those gals, but this run just isn't it. If you are going to put the titles on someone for the "feel good" then make it good at least. I can expect a title change either on the Raw after Summer Slam or at Saudi within the month. However, in the end of this.. we see Alba/Isla go in for a sneak attack that backfired. 

-Tag Team No 1 Contender's Gauntlet Match

I didn't watch all of this, due to a very upset almost 2 year old. These terrible 2s... 

Participants: Baron Corbin and Apollo Crews, Angel Garza and Berto Carrillo, The Street Profits, Pretty Deadly, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, Tama Tonga and Jacob Fatu

I feel there could be some AMAZING matches with these teams, giving the chance.. however we already knew this ending. In the end, it was The Bloodline pinning the Profits. This makes me so sad, because I would LOVE to see Profits and DIY next week. 

Grayson Waller/Austin Theory called out boxer Terence Crawford. If you'll remember he helped out Cody last week.  However this didn't end well.. Waller was met with a punch from Crawford.. that didn't connect but it did to Theory. This split/fight between the tag team is going to be AMAZING and the build for it has been pretty good.

Cody Rhodes has a promo in which he talked about the match at Summer Slam with Solo... he didn't think that Solo is ready, but isn't so sure anymore. He'd like to talk with him one-on-one next week. 

-Bayley/Michin vs Nia Jax/Tiffany Stratton

 Things are heating up with these four. I am loving this story line with these ladies, and I feel they work so well together. Something is for sure brewing between Tiffy and Nia.. There is no in between when it comes to this. Nia is either going to win and have the cash in taken from her.. or Nia is going to cost Tiffy. I feel that was already planted weeks ago when Corey mentioned it. Tiffy would be the 1st failed cash in for the women. I think that would be a pretty bad call, having the mens squashed as well. I think Tiffy is ready.In the end, it was Nia/Tiffy that picked up the win. 

-Solo Promo

To end the show, we have Solo giving a little promo. He called out Cody and Roman both. Makes you think and makes you eager for next week. With that being the final Smackdown before Summer Slam.. anything can happen.

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

We are ONE week away, y'all! But we do have two more stops before we get there. 

Monday Night Raw:

-What will come of Liv after Dom made her cry?
-Will Chad vs Uncle Howdy become official?
-How will Gunther and DP react after their brawls?

Friday Night Smackdown:

-Will we see major flaws of Nia/Tiffy?
-How will Cody/Solo face to face go?
-Will there be a women's tag team match?

Only time will tell! 

until  next time

xoxo,
Chels

WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown

 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...

WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown/Review

What a time, everyone. I have been going going going for the last week or so.. so much that I haven't blogged. I hate when I have to skip weeks, but to be honest... sometimes it is like that. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking off Raw: Rhea Ripley We love Mami.. and she is MAD. Rhea addresses the attack of Asuka from last week.. which of course resulted in Iyo to come out as well. It wasn't long until Asuka and Kairi made themselves known and a brawl was set. This time.. it was Iyo that was misted by Asuka. My guess is that we are going to see some tag team action much sooner than later. I enjoyed this very much overall.. and am pretty happy that we are having Rhea and Iyo set away from the title action. But the question is.. when it is all set and done, are we going to see Rhea or Iyo turn on one another in a shocking turn of events? -Intercontinental Championship: Dominik Mysterio vs. Rusev I won't lie.. I was a little shocked about this...

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...
