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...

AEW Wednesday Night Dynamite: GRAND SLAM (Review/Rundown)

Woah baby, what an episode of Dynamite! One of my favorite episodes of Dynamite is always Grand Slam! You never know what is going to happen! Anddd boy did this deliver! We've got a lot to talk about it, so let's get into it!

-Bryan Danielson vs. Nigel McGuinness 

I did not expect this to start off the show, but helllll yeah! We got a little scare at the start, not knowing if Bryan was going to show up. But we didn't have to wait long as The Final Countdown started to play. LOVE IT! After 13 YEARS we saw Nigel return to the ring and this match was SOOOO GOOD! I was pretty impressed with both men in this, and I really hope we will see Nigel have more matches in the near future. The match itself went a little longer than I expected, but I am not going to complain. In the end, we saw Nigel say "Thank You" before tapping out to Bryan. Alot of people were saying he said "f*** you" but I don't think that is the case. Things got really tense when Christian Cage came out holding the contract for his title shot, but Kip Sabian took the pen out of his hand and took off. This was so funny and good but what role will Kip have in all of this??

 -Hook vs. Roderick Strong

I keep forgetting about the "rules" for the FTW Championship to be honest. Going into this, I think I was fully expecting a weird Roddy quick win... oh but I was wrong. This match was pretty good! There were a lot of weapons that came into play, and it delivered. I was shocked when Hook retained, but so happy! What really got me was Hook at the end.. retiring the FTW championship and returning it to Taz. How freakin sweet was that. Taz shedding a tear almost got me.. 

- The Young Bucks vs. Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher

Um, excuse me.. this was 110% a PPV match in the best form. I went into this match fully expecting a regular match. I didn't think we were getting this banger of a situation. Also LOVED we got the United Empire opening. This was THE match of the night and you cannot tell me otherwise. These two teams work incredible together, and I NEED MORE.. please and thank you! But then we run into the shenanigans... Ospreay refused to let Fletcher (given by Don) use the screwdriver... The Bucks were able to hit the EVP Trigger (after using the title belts as a cheat) and got the pin on Fletcher. PLEASE for the love of GOD let this be a route of kicking Don OUT. If Fletcher turns on Ospreay I'll cry. I'm not even joking. Only time will tell! Next week shall be interesting. 

 *Prince Nana gave a little interview on stage with Tony S, and boy did it deliver too. It wasn't long into the interview that MVP made his AEW debut. Hmm.. he made sure to give Nana his BUSINESS card, and told him to give it to Swerve. Hmm.. are we getting two debuts sooner than later? This is going to be so good.

-Mariah May vs. Yuka Sakazaki

This was a pretty fun match in my opinion. I loved this! Overall, this was a very fun and interesting bout between the two ladies. Yuka is very creative and I loved the way this played out. In the end May got the Storm Zero on Yuka.. picking up the win. At the end of the bout, we also also Mina come out.. looking oh so confused. Are we getting May vs Mina at WrestleDream? Because I would love that! 

-Jon Moxley vs. Darby Allin

What the f*** was that. 

This match was a car wreck that wouldn't stop and I just couldn't look away. Both men work very well together and if I am being honest.. are BOTH willing to risk it all. A lot of people went on to say that Darby shat himself.. however, I think that was blood smeared from his hands. In a shocking turn of events, it was Mox that got the win with a Death Rider from the middle rope. WOAH BABY! We are getting Mox vs Bryan at Wrestle Dream. I am more than confident that Bryan will be retiring. What a wonderful way to go out too. If he doesn't, this does lead me to how far will he be going.. and WHO will take the title from him? Only time will tell! We are about TWO WEEKS away! 

*Danielson did show up at the end of the match to attack Mox.. but was taken out by Shafir, PAC, and Claudio. Others did show up as well to help Bryan.. and that ended the show. WOW!

 9.5/10

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

This week was INSANE and I loved it. Thus far, Monday and Wednesday night were both pretty damn good. Up next is Friday Night Smackdown and I hope they deliver! 

until next time

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...
