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...

AEW Dynamite (Aug 7th) Rundown

What a week it has been, my friends. Normally I have my rundowns the next day, but honestly.. things have been pretty off.. and I took a day off to collect myself. Dynamite was pretty good this week, and we have a lot to unpack. Things are heating up, as we are inching closer and closer to All In! Let's get into it!

MJF vs Kyle Fletcher 

The show started off strong! This match was SOLID! I enjoyed these two working together, and hope to see it again soon. Fletcher is becoming more of a favorite for me, and getting popular by the week. I hope we see much more of him in the future. I'd LOVE to see Fletcher/Ospreay team up together before Davis comes back. Regardless, the match moved forward and MJF got the win. However, after the match MJF attacked the ref with the belt and hit Kyle with the diamond ring. We saw backstage that Will tried to come to the ring but was locked in a room.. trying to get out. Ospreay did make his way out, and chased off MJF.. coming to the aid of Kyle. This match at Wembly is going to be insane. Honestly.. I can't imagine who will win. Both men are very popular, and it could go any way at this point. 

Mariah May vs Viva Van 

This was basically a squash match. No surprise there.. however they didn't squash Viva automatically. I've seen her on multiple promotions previously, and I was hoping they would put on a good match. However it really didn't push Viva at all.. just making May look extra. Of course, May picked up the win. After the match Mariah was given a gift. It was a photo of her and Toni, however on the back it said "Die Mariah die".. that's when Toni Storm came out of nowhere... but officials intervened. This match is going to be INSANE.. and I have a beautiful feeling a new era will begin. 

 Bryan Keith vs Katsuyori Shibata

I hate this. I LOVE me some Shibata.. I just can't stand The Learning Tree... and I will die on that hill. I am very much ready for this to be over.. because Shibata/Hook is so much better than this all together. However, this match wasn't awful. I am kinda glad I didn't skip it this time. In the end, Shibata made Keith tap out for the win. It wasn't long until The Learning Tree crew attacked Shibata and Hook came out to make the save. Where will this fued go from here? Hmm.. 

Orange Cassidy/FTR vs Rush/Roderick Strong/Beast Mortos

This match RULED! Seriously, I wasn't sure at first about this whole thing, but the match was AMAZING. They all work so well together. That little move OC and Beast Mortos did in the ring had my head spinning.. My husband had to go back and re watch it, he was so shocked. In the end OC/FTR picked up the win. However, after the match The Acclaimed came out to confront FTR and it was a brawl. Are we going to see a 3 way for the tag titles at All In? I'd rather not, and just see FTR face The Young Bucks once again. 

Kamille Handicap Match 

Not worth it. I was hoping and praying that we would get a match with Kamille that really showed her off.. not a squash match. Kinda upset about this, but oh well.. After that match Britt Baker appeared on screen giving a promo to Mone.. Was pretty good, and gave an idea of what is to come. I have this feeling that we will be seeing Jamie Hayter at All In.. after Mone wins in a very suspicious way. 

Jeff Jarrett vs Bryan Danielson

I was fighting a two year old during this match, but very much enjoyed most of what I saw. This match was set up last week, and had been built up very well through the show leading up.. We saw Ricky Steamboat as the special guest commentator as well. I thought this match was very good, and really show cased both men. They are both wonderful in my opinion. They work very well together. Bryan Danielson ended up with the win.. and both men closed the show, showing their respects to one another. 

Overall: 8.9/10

I thought this episode was very well done and things are heating up even more now that All In is about two weeks away. I feel more and more matches are being set up to be made official. I'd say by next week we will have a full rundown on who will be making an appearance. I also saw it was announced that there will be a "battle royal" so you never know who might show up or return for this. 

Up next.. we have Friday Night Smackdown! I am pretty pumped for this and have a feeling it will be pretty good. From what I have been told.. Cody Rhodes will be opening the show. I also have insight that we might be seeing Kevin Owens vs Cody Rhodes at Bash in Berlin coming up at the end of the  month. I was wondering who this might be.. seeing that Randy will be facing Gunther in the same PPV. This would be pretty good, and it would be nice to see Cody in something other than the Bloodline situation. I know we are coming back to that.. but change is nice. Closing the show.. it is rumored to be Roman Reigns. I wonder how this will down, after the fall out from Summer Slam last week. It's gonna be good! Stay tuned into Twitter for some live tweeting.. let's chat and have fun!

until next time

xoxo,

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown (April 28th)

We've got one hell of a Monday Night Raw, and we've got a lot to talk about! Let's get into it! -Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman I thought this was wonderful! The promo that Seth gave was AMAZING and really gave a glimpse of what is to come within this group and story. Of course, we did have Sami come out to get a little promo with Seth as well.. and it was pretty damn good. I enjoyed it very much! I still fully believe that this was a push into the direction of Sami joining Seth/Bron/Paul shortly down the road. And this will come in the form of turning on Jey Uso.. I think it's going to be one of the best storylines this year to be honest.  -Rhea vs Roxanne  Are we finally getting Roxanne on the main roster? I hope so! I enjoyed this match overall, but wish it didn't end in a DQ.. I would have loved to have a clean match between these two. It does however look we will get Rhea NOT going for the title again right now (which...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown (April 11th) Rundown/Review

We are officially ONE WEEK away from Wrestlemania, and this one is going to be HUGE! I can't wait! We are going to talk a little bit about everything that has happened last night and then go straight into what I believe will happen next Sat and Sun! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Nick kicks off Smackdown with Randy  We got both men face to face in this, and I won't lie.. it was pretty damn good. Can we please see these two go at it at Mania?? It's been teased for far too long, and it would for sure deliver. However, before it could go any further.. Solo and Tama made themselves known. I think I can speak for everyone when I tell you that the air left everyone's body. But thankfully it was a set up for a tag team match between Randy/LA vs Tama/Solo.. -Women's Gauntlet Match Overall.. we kind of knew who would win this. I will say it was pretty good and nice to see all these teams go at it. I will also mention, whatever this is with Maxx...

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...
