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 31st) Rundown

Last night was Dynamite, and it was the fall out from Blood and Guts. We are officially on the road to All In, coming THIS MONTH! Things are really heating up, and matches are becoming a whole lot clearer. We have a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

The show opened with MJF, of course. In MJF fashion, he talked trash about Ospreay and the crowd.. however that didn't last long due to Will coming out to trade words. After a few minutes the match was set up, and Lance Archer came out for the match to begin. I honestly really liked this match, and feel they both work well together. Anytime Archer is on Dynamite I am happy.. seriously, can they use him more often?? In the end, Ospreay got the win with a Hidden Blade. The celebration didn't last long, because MJF attacked from behind. Kyle Fletcher made the save and gave a hell of a promo! Seriously, Fletcher is something else.. give him all the spotlight! Overall, this promo was amazing.. and set up a match between the two for next week. Although, we already know who will win this match.. I have no doubt it will be amazing.

-Willow Nightingale vs Kris Statlander

This was a CMLL eliminator match and I was impressed overall. This feud between these two women has been very good lately, and the fact they have kept it going this long is amazing. I'd love to see it come to a head soon, but we shall see. I thought this match overall was good, and these two ladies have IT.. especially together. In the end, shockingly... we saw Stat pick up the win! I am assuming we will see the official match very soon. 

Up next, we had Bryan Danielson come out to the ring for a promo. The talked about his life/career. He talked about his contract that ends tomorrow and that he will give this match with Swerve his all. Swerve came out to the ring and they exchanged some words here and there. In the end, Danielson told Swerve that if he didn't win the title.. he would never wrestle again. This SHOOK me.. because I can see this going both ways. Danielson did promise his family.. however I could see Bryan win to have at least one good run before he retires. This match is going to be insane... 

The Conglomeration vs Rush, Mortos, and Strong

I thought this match was pure chaos. We had some fun moments, and some just pure crazy. All together I thought that they all worked pretty well together. However, this match really took me by surprise. We saw Mortos pin Briscoe for the win. I don't agree with having a champ being pinned.. but you win some and lose some. 

-We did see back to back promos from both Mariah May and Toni Storm. This feud is beautiful, and I have this feeling.. that at All In.. it's going to be INSANE. The closer it becomes to All In, the more unhinged it becomes. I'm here for it!

-Kamille had a squash match, which was kinda bull crap.. but I get it.. Of course Mone was with her and gave a small promo after the match. Also.. is anyone else like super interested in this whole Shane McMahon deal? It seems he might show up WITH Mone.. seeing all these rumors started with her/him talking. Makes you think...

Adam Page vs Darby Allin

I LOVED this match. It was pretty intense.. on both ends. Now that we have a completely unhinged Hangman, it takes things to a new level. While the match was very violent, there was no blood.. which was kinda a breathe of fresh air. The shock value wasn't really needed at that point. It completely popped me when we saw Darby get the win over Adam Page..Like.. WHAT... so where do we go from here? An even more pissed off Hangman? Will this cause problems within the Jack Perry/Darby match coming up?

Overall: 8.3/10

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

I have a feeling FOR SURE.. that we will be seeing Jamie Hayter sooner than later. We now see that Britt is outnumbered, and might need a little help. Hmm...Will it be before or after All In tho?

Who will be facing The Bucks?

So many amazing matches are being set up, and I am READY! We also have to remember that two weeks after All In we have All Out.. so this leads you to wonder what matches will be saved for that?

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

The count down is ON... tomorrow is our final Smackdown before Summer Slam! 

-I'll do my best to have the Smackdown early on Saturday.. I'll be gone most of the day due to visiting some family with my son, and of course his birthday planning. I'll be vlogging and posting that day too so look for it on my IG! Sunday is my sons birthday, so I am unsure when the Summer Slam blog will be up. It could be pretty early, or later in the afternoon. I'll be LIVE tweeting as well on Saturday, so come say hi and join in on the conversation!

until next time

xoxo,

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...
