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 Wednesday Night Dynamite (Aug 21st) Rundown

It's almost time, everyone! The FINAL Wednesday Night Dynamite.. was pretty damn good and now we are All In bound! We are just DAYS away from one of the biggest PPVs of the year. We have a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! 

-Mone/Baker Contract Singing

I thought this was wonderful! I loved both women in this and felt it really added to the match coming up. You can feel that this is going to be good, just by the last few promos. There really wasn't much happening other than the promos, seeing that both women said to not be physical with each other. However by the end we saw Britt attack Brickhouse to end the show.. with Britt standing tall. This makes me believe that Britt will not be taking the win at All In.. maybe this will be because of the attack on Brickhouse? Will there be help on Britt's end too? Only time will tell!

-Chris Jericho vs. Tommy Billington

Y'all know I am not a huge fan of Chris right now with the whole Learning Tree thing.. It's just weird to be and to be honest.. annoying. Lol! However this match really delivered. I felt it was very good to showcase Tommy like this, and in such a perfect place. Jericho didn't win with the Walls this go around but did counter it with a Codebreaker and flying headbutt to pick up the win. Can we PLEASE get Hook winning this title again at All In.. I need it! 

-Toni Storm vs. Saraya (AEW Women's World Championship)

I haven't really been watching Rampage or Collision lately due to such a busy schedule so this match was kind of a shock to me. Of course I LOVE Saraya but this match was pretty predictable seeing what is to come at All In. The match itself was pretty good and both women work well together.. as they have in the past. Will we be seeing Saraya in some way Sunday? Only time will tell! In the end, Toni got the win. However this win was not celebrated long.. May attacked Toni from behind to end the segment. This is going to be SOOOO good. However, they are making it WAY too obvious for May to win. Are we being punked right now? Or is she really winning?

-Ospreay/MJF face off

 Ospreay had the most amazing entrance and welcome. Seriously, this man deserved that like something serious. However, this didn't last long because out come MJF in his American flag suit. Talk about being extra. Lol! The back and forth with these two was AMAZING. LOVED IT! The crowd was on fire for this too..We heard MJF talk about Ospreays wife and child.. good God. It was said that if it was physical the fine would be upwards of $127,000.. Will said screw it and attacked MJF. Security got involved and blood poured. I'm super hype for this match and feel it will be a heavy one. The winner? This one will be hard to predict!

-Kazuchika Okada vs. Claudio Castagnoli (AEW Continental Championship)

Is anyone else kind over Okada and The Bucks? The story line just went stale for me.. I am hoping after All In it will change because apart of me really wants this to happen. Anyway, this match was pretty damn good. It was very solid and technical as you could imagine. However, I couldn't imagine it ended like this, but at the same time it kinda makes sense. The matched ended in a time limit situation.. after the Bucks came out saying it was a 20 minute match instead of 25. Didn't care for that too much but oh well. In the end we saw FTR and The Acclaimed come out as well.. seeing that there is a triple threat with the 3 at All In! Will we see the downfall of The Bucks? Or will this continue into All Out?

-The Elite vs. FTR and Darby Allin

I thought this match was pretty great and added to the matches to come. It was set up perfectly as well from the previous match. It did get pretty crazy for a while but things were put back together. Overall it was a good match. However we did see Dax pin Nick for the win. Which.. leads me to believe we will not be seeing new champs on Sunday. 

-Swerve/Bryan Danielson Face to Face

This was INSANE. Swerve did come out and give a small promo on Bryan.. talking about his wife and children. This lasted a short time before Bryan came out and gave Swerve the knee. Bryan was FIRED UP and ready to go.. his promo was beautiful and intense, as it should be. The crowd was ON FIRE too which made it even better. I can't predict who will win.. but Fightful did point out he was wearing the same shirt (color/style) as he did when he retired. Hmm... I don't like that at all. I am REALLY pushing Bryan to win this, because I just can't see doing ANOTHER Swerve vs Hangman for the title. Can you imagine the pop tho if Bryan does win??

Overall: 9.4/10

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

We have a big week coming up seeing not only do we have Friday Night Smackdown but the final Collision before the big day on Sunday with All In! I am HYPE for this PPV and will be live tweeting all day! You don't want to miss any of this action coming up! 

-Monday Night Raw we will see (FINALLY) Uncle Howdy in his first match! And.. it will be Bo Dallas's first match since October/November of 2019! 

-Next week we will also be leading into Bash In Berlin which will be Saturday! I don't believe I will be live tweeting seeing that it comes on during the day. My husband and I don't watch PPVs without each other.. so expect the tweeting to begin later on in the day. 

-I will do my best (on Sunday) to have a full rundown BEFORE the end of the day since it comes on so early. 

-I'll be posting more on IG this weekend due to traveling and some links for my favorite items. I'll also be filming another YouTube video tomorrow.. so stay tuned! 

I hope everyone is ready for the crazy weekend! 

until then

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...
