WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

I'm a little late, but here we go. We've got a lot to talk about.. so let's get into it! -Kicking off: Cody Rhodes We didn't get very much but was told by Nick Aldis that we are getting a No 1 Contenders match in which we will see Jacob Fatu vs Drew McIntyre. This is very interesting see that we didn't think Jacob was cleared. Cody did address his loss to Seth.. however now has his eyes set on the new fued that is brewing. This.. should be interesting to say the least.   -Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss vs. Sol Ruca and Zaria (for the Tag Team Titles) I loved this match! I LOVED seeing Sol Ruca and Zaria on the main roster.. and this match delivered overall. However in the end, it was Alexa and Charlotte picked up the win to retain their titles. If you haven't seen this match, please do.. it was worth it. I can't wait to see not only what Alexa and Charlotte will do next.. but what is next for Sol and Zaria.   -United States Championship Open Challenge: Sami...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown (Aug 9th) Rundown

Okay, now everyone knows that I haven't exactly been a fan of Smackdown recently. Not that it isn't good overall.. most of it just hasn't been my cup of tea. However, I was impressed this week with most of it. We have a lot to unpack coming out of Summer Slam.. so let's get into it!

-The show kicked off with Cody Rhodes coming out to the ring. It's always a warm welcome when he arrives.. which is great. During this time he talked about his next feud.. and who he will face at Bash in Berlin coming in at the end of the month. It wasn't long after that until Solo made himself known with the rest of the Bloodline. It does seem as well that Jacob is still out due to injury from Saturday. It was KO that made the save and to stand tall with Cody. In a crazy turn of events, we saw Cody offer Kevin a championship match at BIB. I thought that it would be Randy, but seeing that he will be facing Gunther.. I can understand. Regardless, that match is going to be GREAT!

-A-Town Down Under vs Street Profits

This match was to determine who would be facing the winners of the other tag team match (DIY vs Pretty Deadly) later on in the show. I thought this match was pretty solid and in the end we saw the Street Profits pick up the win. With Bobby gone, it seems we are getting new versions of the SP.. and I am loving it. I really hope they are pushed a little more. Also.. are we really getting a break up of A-Town Down Under? I still think it's coming. 

-Jade Cargill vs Alba Fyre

This is where things get a little "eghh" for  me. I feel like the booking of the women's tag team titles are trash. If you are going to have an active champ lose quickly.. then why have her as a champ? Just change the titles over? I love the Unholy Union.. however since winning, their booking has been awful. It seems they are going to push out this championship run a little longer.. and we will be getting a 6 woman tag sooner than later. This comes from Blair and Naomi getting involved to help their own friends in the group. In the end, Jade picked up the win. 

-LA Knight Promo

I am hype for this man. I am so happy and proud that he finally got his title win. This has been a long time coming.. and it comes well deserved. Did anyone also panic for a second when LA slipped off the top rope a bit? Lol! We got a little promo from LA for a celebration and to brag.. that was before Santos came out before his match.. and him and LA exchanged words. 

-Andrade vs Santos Escobar

I thought these two worked very well together. However, I wasn't very happy with the interference.. There were a few, and I just felt they weren't needed. I can understand due to story line why they happened tho. So in the end, we saw Santos pick up the win. If I am not mistaken, this means that Santos will be the one next to face LA for the title. In the past, they have worked so well together.. so I can imagine that this will be very good. 

-Pretty Deadly vs DIY

The winner of this match will be facing the Street Profits.. this will determine the Bloodlines next feud..This match really threw me for a loop. I wasn't expecting it.. this match was very good. I hope we are able to see more of it. In the end, we saw DIY pick up the win. I don't know if anyone else saw it, but the name plates for DIY are still on the title... Hmm... Does this mean anything?

The show came to an end with Solo/The Bloodline coming to the ring. Solo called him out.. and boy did he deliver. While it was about or less than 10 minutes (which is kind of a bummer).. Roman took out Tama and Loa before getting in the ring with Solo. After beating up Solo, we saw Roman pick the his ulafala but was attacked by the bloodline. Once again, Roman was able to take them out.. while Solo escaped with the necklace.. as he watched the beating from the top of the stage.

Things are heating up, y'all!

Overall: 8.1/10

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

-Will Roman speak next week?
-Will we see Nia/Tiffy? Will there be a riff?
-Who will win the no1 contender match for the tag titles?
-Will Cody/KO start to feud as it builds for BIB?

Up next: Monday Night Raw... I am hearing that Rhea will be opening the show! Heckkk yes! I wonder what Mami and DP will have to say next. The Terror Twins are an a rampage.What about Uncle Howdy? The VHS tapes are over, and their first match is in the books? What's next for the Wyatt Sicks?

xoxo,
Chels

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 ...

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...

WWE Evolution 2 Rundown/Blog

Okay, I didn't expect this PLE to go this hard.. but here we are. I was SHOCKED out of my mind with this. The build up might have not been good, but the show... they did that shit.  -Kicking Off:  Becky Lynch vs. Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria This was a whole lot better than I thought it was going to turn out. While I did want to see Bayley pull off a win, I did have to remember that Summer Slam is just under 3 weeks away. All three women did so damn good, but it was Becky that retained. So does this mean we could infact see Bayley and Becky once again face off at SS next month? Because that would be the best place for Bayley to win. -Jacy Jayne vs. Jordynne Grace I haven't been very familiar with Jacy Jayne, but I liked her! She is pretty good overall. There were some issues here and there within the match but they did their best to recover. However.. as expected we saw Blake Monroe turn on Jordynne Grace to cost her the match by hitting her with the title. It seems we are getting...
