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 Friday Night Smackdown (Aug 16th) Rundown

 What a Smackdown! 

Yesterday was my husband's birthday, which resulted in watching Smackdown a little later than normal. Between going out to get Mexican, and cake time.. we had a time with our little one. He wanted to party hard. Lol! But we made it through, and I actually enjoyed Smackdown this go around. We have a lot to talk about so let's get into it! 

-We are on the road to Bash in Berlin and things are heating up! 

-Smackdown opened with Tiffy (and Pretty Deadly) welcoming Nia for her championship celebration. I thought this was AMAZING. Also.. can we talk about how gorgeous Nia looked?? That opening was just chef's kiss. Tiffy of course went all over with the pink and cuteness.. which Nia said she didn't really care for. Nia then said everyone (including Tiffy) needed to bow to her. Hmm... in which Tiffy hesitated. Can you feel the tension? Can you feel the start of a turn? Tiffy was able to stay clear from this one.. when Kit/Elton sang Nia a little tune. This was hard to watch only because I have second hand embarrassment. Lol! Mia Yim broke up everything and raised hell with a kendo stick. Took EVERYONE out. I loved this so much. 

 -Andrade vs Carmelo Hayes

Is there more to this story than we think? Or is this all? We are in the 3rd match for this two and I am loving every single one of them. I mean.. come on! These men work so well together it's insane. Since they are keeping them going I wonder if this will end in a situation of a final match in a PPV setting.. or will they end up becoming a tag team? Hmm.. Makes you think.

 -Naomi vs Blair Davenport

I might just get some hate for this.. but I'm gonna say it. This match SUCKED. I'm serious, it seemed very lack luster and I just was not a fan. I'm not even talk about individually.. I mean over all, it seemed that these two couldn't work very coordinated together. I hope they can redeem it sooner than later.

-Kevin Owens vs Grayson Waller 

I loved the set up for the match. The tension is still there for both Theory/Waller.. so I am hoping this is where it's going in the end. I loved the match.. another situation where both men work well together. In the end, we saw Owens take the win. After the match we saw chairs get involved as well as Theory.. to help his partner. Of course, we can't have things uneven. Cody Rhodes made the save to help Owens. Things got a little tense when Owens picked up the title. Are we going to see a complete turn of KO against Cody? Hmm I am pretty interested to see how this will play out in Berlin. Is that tension that I feel against the two best friends?

-Street Profits vs DIY

I have been WAITING ALL WEEK on this match. This match.. this match my friends was IT. You wanna talk about good tag team wrestling.. let's freakin go! I loved everything about this match, the men work well together and it shows big time. I was on the edge of my seat with some of the near falls. It was hard to pick who I wanted to win.. because I am such a fan of both. Both teams deserve the best. However, I could have SWORN that DIY was gonna take that win.. nope. The Street Profits got the pin and I was SHOOK. Looks like we have new no 1 contenders. 

Solo/Tama came out to the ring. We saw Solo call out Roman to take the ulafala from him if he wanted it back. Of course, we are not disappointed when Roman comes out and takes out Solo/Tama by himself. He reclaimed what was his.. but sadly was taken out by Jacob Fatu. The show ended with Solo standing tall over Roman.. I knew this would come.. but it doesn't make it suck any less. I am assuming we will be seeing some back up very soon. Does this mean it will be a match at Bash In Berlin? Or will we be waiting a month for Bad Blood in October??

Overall: 7.9/10

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

Up Next:We have Monday Night Raw coming up! 

-How will Rhea/DP and Liv/Dom move forward with their match coming up?

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...
