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 (Sept 6th) Rundown

It's the fall out from Bash in Berlin and things are heating up. We are now on the road to Bad Blood coming in less than one month. We will be seeing more and more matches leading up to the big night in the following weeks. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

-The show started with Cody Rhodes. During this time, he put over KO from their match in Berlin and of course welcomed Michael Cole back to Smackdown. It's gonna take a while for me to get used to this, and right now.. I miss him so much on Raw. However, Wade and Joe are doing a great job. It wasn't long before The Bloodline came to the ring, but it was Solo that made everyone wait at ringside. In a strange turn of events, Cody said that Jacob Fatu deserved a title show, not Solo.. this didn't last long because Solo stared Fatu down until the stepped aside. Things got a bit tense, however it wasn't long until The Profits and DIY to show up to back Cody up just in-case. Nick came out to make sure there wasn't no fight and announced that NEXT WEEK it would be Cody vs Solo inside a steel cage for the title. WOAH! With them moving to USA... and it being the "season premier" who knows what all could happen. I am expencting some surprises during this.

-Bayley vs. Tiffany Stratton

Things are heating up between Tiffy and Nia, as we saw that from a bit of a tense backstage moment. However things heated up even more when Nia kinda cost Tiffy her match against Bayley. I loved this match and really would love to see these two women work together again. Will we see Nia crush Tiffy's cash in dreams? Or will we will a NEW champ?

-Giovanni Vinci vs. Apollo Crews

What in the Mississippi fudge was THIS mess? WWE has been showing off Giovanni for weeks now, and all of a sudden this man loses in less than THREE SECONDS?????? WHAT? I don't know if this is apart of his gimmick, or if Giovanni pissed in someones dinner but that is foul. 

-Kevin Owens vs. Grayson Waller vs. Austin Theory

I thought this match was very good, and very fun! For the most part this match was a handicap match.. until.. Theory got a bit upset when Grayson tried to win and made sure that didn't happen. I am hoping we will see this come to a head sooner than later, because the tease has been there for months. After an amazing series of Stunners, we saw KO pick up the win!

- Chelsea Green vs. Mia Yim

I am so torn with this. I love Chelsea Green, and I love Mia Yim. I thought this match was pretty good and overall fun with both women. They work well together. However it was Piper that had the distraction and Chelsea was able to hit the unprettier to score the win. Took me completely by surprise, but I am happy she has the win.

-We saw LA Knight come to the ring to give a promo. He talk about his successful run thus far as US Champ. We then had Carmelo Hayes come out and let him know that he deserves a title show, Andrade followed. It looks like we will be getting Andrade vs Hayes 5 next week to see who will be facing LA. After that we saw LA take out Andrade and Melo with a BFD.

-The Bloodline vs. DIY and Street Profits

As much as I didn't want to watch this match, I did. I was pleasantly surprised by this tho. The match itself was pretty good and these men work very well together. I loved the power moves, and the aerial maneuvers. The later half of this match was more chaos however in the end it was Solo that hit Ford with a Samoan Spike for the win.

I am so burnt out on The Bloodline. I mean.. it's just the same crap every week and it's old. I don't feel like Solo has it right now. He isn't awful, but it just isn't a good fit for this role. Regardless... 

Overall: 8.2/10

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...
