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 Monday Night Raw (Sept 16th) Rundown/Review

Last night was a pretty good Raw (in my opinion) leading up to Bad Blood. We have almost 2 weeks until then, and things are getting pretty good. We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it! 

-CM Punk opened the show, and was NOT happy. Punk sounded very raspy and upset (as he should be) and gave ONE HELL of a promo leading up to the Hell in a Cell match at BB. At one point, Punk said that despite his family being against the match.. he was ready to risk it all, he was ready to put his career on the line. I have a feeling this might be one of THE best HIC matches in a while.

-Sheamus vs. Pete Dunne

We saw another match with these two, and things are getting wild. This rivalry is getting real intense, real quick. The match itself was pretty good, however by the end.. things seemed this feud isn't going to end anytime soon. We saw Pete bring in the shillelagh, providing a bit of a distraction. And Sheamus ended up getting hit with the cricket bat right to the face.. allowing Pete to pick up the win. Oh.. this is FAR from over. These two can really put on one hell of a match. 

-Natalya vs. Zoey Stark

Well... same match, different night. I am REALLY getting tired of the same matches that just don't give it all. This is one of those matches. I love Nattie and I like Zoey pretty good too.. it's just this isn't working like they want it to. In the end, Nattie picked up the win. 

-Jey Uso and Bron Breakker Promo

 This promo was AMAZING, gimme 12. These two went back and forth, face to face before their big match next week on Raw. Bron let everyone know he didn't need his family or his name for his sucess in the WWE. He also went on to say that he has done more in 6 months than Jey has done in 14 years. Woah. Jey wasn't gonna let that slide tho.. He told Bron that his run would be shorter than his NFL career.. which POPPED me like something serious. I wasn't expecting that. To end that segment we saw Jey dodge a spear and hit Bron with one of his own. Are we going to see a NEW champ next week? I am so torn.

-World Tag Team Championship Match: New Day vs. Judgment Day

I had to ask the other day who the tag champs were. If that says anything about the Judgement Day run thus far. I was wanting The New Day to win so bad.. but that just wasn't in the cards.. once again. The match itself was pretty good, besides the outside interference.. can we PLEASE get a match with the Judgement Day banned from ringside?? PLEASE!? On the outside we saw Dom/Carlito and LWO cause an brawl on the outside which led the ref to leave the ring for a moment. This cost Woods from getting the pin.. Moments later Finn got the win. OH BOY...

Later on, we saw a PISSED Woods lash out on Kofi backstage. I have this feeling that we aren't going to be getting Woods turn on Kofi.. but in a SHOCKING turn of events, we will see Kofi turn on Woods. Because at this moment, they are making it way too obvious that Woods would be the one turning. 

-We got an AMAZING little video from Wyatt Sicks. If you haven't watched it, please do! And we got the return of QR codes! HELL YEAH! If you want to follow that, please go on Twitter and type in Uncle Howdy or Wyatt Sicks. You'll see all that information and everything that was found and solved. In basic terms.. they are talking to Braun. Not to attack, but to help. Hmm...I am loving where this is going.

-Braun Strowman vs. Bronson Reed

Okay, what the hell was even that! Any time these two get in the ring together it's INSANE, and this time.. they delivered. RIGHT out the gate, the top rope broke. Not only that, but outside the ring.. they broke the barrier. This continued into the back where they went through a wall! I would also like to point out, the match never started. So.. I can assume this feud will continue on. Regardless, this is one rematch situation that I actually enjoy. You honestly never know what will happen next and I love it. 

-Sami Zayn Promo

I love some Sami Zayn. This guy knows how to do it all, and this new feud with Gunther is one of my favorites. Not only did we see Sami, but Ludwig as well. We saw what we thought could be a turn.. but Sami made some very good points about Ludwig and Gunther's relationship. In the end, we saw Gunther deny Sami another match.. resulting in a beat down. To end this segment Sami counter attacked Kaiser in the middle of the ring. Will this match be at Bad Blood? Or are they delaying for other reasons?

-Bianca Belair vs. Iyo Sky

Fabulous, give me 12 please. Where has this been in my entire life? This match was AMAZING and why they chose to have this on a Monday Night Raw is a mystery to me, honestly. I loved everything about this. It looks like we will be seeing a tag team match of these teams way sooner than later. Hopefully it will be good too! In the end we got (in a shocking turn of events) Iyo pinning Bianca! Didn't expect that shit!

-Damian Priest vs. Dominik Mysterio

After the last few weeks we (once again) got DP and Dom in a match in the main event. Some of those hits and shots were personal.. LOL but what a match! I thought it was pretty good overall and I was impressed. I thought the spot were Mami took out Morgan over the announce table was AMAZING and they even took out Wade. But in the end, DP got the win. That was short lived due to the beat down afterwards. This time it was Damian that took the main beating.. with the Judgement Day to remain on top. 

What does this mean for their matches at Bad Blood? Are we going to see a title change? Will the Terror Twins stand tall in their matches? Only time will tell!

Overall: 8.4/10

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

Up next we have Wednesday Night Dynamite! Things are getting serious as we have a HUGE month coming up for AEW. 

-Matches are really coming together for not only Grand Slam.. but WrestleDream as well!
-We also have Dynamite's 5th Anniversary episode coming up too!
-Will Bryan Danielson return after being attacked and to confront Nigel or Mox?
-Britt Return? They will be in Pittsburgh sooner than later..
-Where is Mercedes Mone?
-Max deal coming soon?

*Almost 2 weeks until Bad Blood
*Almost 3 weeks until WrestleDream

Until next time

xoxo,
Chels

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...
