WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown/Review

It just dawned on me that I never did my Smackdown Rundown... and I am so upset. Let's just say it was a busy and full weekend for me. Regardless, this week for wrestling is going to be HUGE.. so bare with me, as it will be ALOT! I think I will have a blog every single day from Saturday-Tuesday... I might even have two in one day. Saturday is TWO PPVs.. in Wrestlepalooza and AEW All Out.... I WILL be watching AEW first and LIVE so you can expect the tweets. I am unsure about watching Wrestlepalooza in real time due to AEW but I will be tweeting as best as possible when I do watch it. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking off: John Cena We had a pretty dang good promo with Cena and talking about Brock... A good bit of this confused me.. seeing that Brock has only been on Smackdown and not Raw leading up to their match on Saturday. I wish there was a little more. With this.. this makes me believe the match itself isn't going to end clean and will m...

WWE Monday Night Raw (Sept 23rd) Rundown/Review

We are almost ONE WEEK away from Bad Blood! And things are getting tense! We've got a lot to talk about with this Monday Night Raw, so let's get into it!

-The show kicked off with Liv and Dom making their way to the ring and giving a little bit of a promo. That was before Mami interrupted and the two ladies exchanged words. Mami was in the mood for some good news, and boy did she deliver. Mami let everyone (and Liv) know that her knee injury.. she was now cleared. And second, that it wasn't going to be a problem with Dom.. because at Bad Blood Dom will be above the ring in a shark cage during their match. WHAT. I freakin love it! I also feel that since Dom won't be the one to cost Rhea, it could be the return of someone else. Hmm.. thoughts?? In the end, Rhea smacked Liv with a hell of a headbutt. I REALLY want Rhea to win next Saturday, but just have this feeling that it won't happen like we want it to. PLEASE for the love of God don't make this last until Mania. 

-Sami Zayn vs. Ludwig Kaiser

I thought this match was pretty good. I am really loving Sami and Ludwig right now both working together.. and individually. They both put in such great work not only in the ring but on the mic too. This match really delivered but in the end, it was Sami that picked up the win. Gunther did make himself known, coming to the ring looking as he was ready to compete. He told Sami that he had seen enough and he knows that Sami wanted a match.. but once again denied him. That was straight dirty. Lol! I can see it is coming tho.

-Dragon Lee vs. Carlito

I felt this match was pretty out of left field. Was it really needed? Regardless, I still enjoy seeing Carlito and Dragon Lee on my TV. However, things didn't go well for The Judgement Day... because Lee pinned Carlito. As much as I don't like the JD... let that man pick up a win for once. lol!

-The Miz vs. Bronson Reed

The match never even started as Braun took it upon himself to attack Bronson once again. And boy did they deliver on this one too. They went all out and then some trying to attack each other. I honestly thought these two were going to break the ring. But.. I can see that coming next week. After it was all said and done NEXT WEEK will be a final match between the two. It will be a Last Monster Standing Match! I can expect things to get pretty wild! But the question is.. will the Miz have a part in all of this too?

- Drew McIntyre Responds to CM Punk

Oh boy. This match between Drew and Punk is going to one for the books. Drew said that he was going to make Punk bleed, and more. This might be a contender for one of the best HIC matches leading up. If you haven't seen CM Punks promo from last week, you might need to. It was very good. 

-Damage CTRL vs. Unholy Union

I thought this match was pretty good! I was impressed. I won't lie, I haven't been feeling Damage CTRL beforehand, but recently.. I am more than impressed with what we've been seeing. Of course I love the Unholy Union and really hope they are used on a regular basis. After a very good battle, it was Damage CTRL that took the win. Are we going to be seeing them face Jade/Bianca next?? I really hope so!

-The New Day vs. American Made

It was almost a little odd seeing American Made not get taken out by The Wyatt Sicks. Lol! I loved the little joke on Chad before the match... too funny! I thought this match was something else, I didn't expect it to be this good. For some reason I expected something quick, and I am so glad I was wrong. However we did see the change up of The New Day.. in the end we saw Woods lose his cool resulting in the loss of the match. Oops. See what I mean.. Kofi has to be the one to turn. They have made it way too obvious that it would be Woods. Prove me wrong.

*I LOVED the backstage promo video with Damian Priest, talking about Finn. This really added to their match coming up at Bad Blood. 

*We did see another QR code with the Wyatt Sicks. All things are coming to a head sooner than later with the potential of Braun coming into play. Only time can tell. There is also rumors that during the small backstage segment with Liv/Dom/Adam Pearce you could see what LOOKED like Lilly in the background? There is no conformation but things could be looking bad for The Judgement Day. If you want to see more about what was found from the QR code, go to twitter and search Uncle Howdy. 

-Intercontinental Championship: Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker

For the 7th time.. Jey Uso went into battle for another chance at his FIRST singles championship! Now, I don't know about y'all. but I loved this match. Everything about it.. from the tournament to the build up. It was just so good in my opinion. Thus far, Bron has done a wonderful job. He has proven himself in this business AND on the main roster. He has a very BIG and BRIGHT future ahead of him. The match itself.. was great! You can tell the importance of the match and both men work very well together. This had me on the edge of my seat, the entire time. BUT... in an insane turn of events... JEY USO WINS THE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP! The way I ALMOST woke my child up! Y'ALL! I am so proud of him for this and given this chance. He has worked SO HARD for it! HELL YEAH!

*To the people that say Bron didn't have enough time with the championship. That it wasn't fair.. that Hunter failed. BLAH BLAH BLAH! Jey Uso has been there for what... 15+ years?? This man DESERVED THIS. Bron JUST got to the main roster, hear me when I say this man has SO MUCH TIME to hold MORE championships. Jey deserved this, let him have it. 

Now.. with that being said... who will be his next feud? 

9.7/10

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

We are ONE week away from Bad Blood and things are getting RED HOT! What are YOU excited to see?

There are so many great matches not only on Dynamite, but Collision as well! I can't wait!

I'll be doing my best to get the ball rolling on tweeting Dynamite this week, but please know that things are a little crazy over here lately... please be patient. 

I hope everyone has a great week!

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 ...

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown Blog

What a Monday Night Raw on Netflix before Money in the Bank on Saturday! This one had it's ups and downs, but.. we got through it. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking Off: CM PUNK We saw a little promo talking about Money in the Bank.. seeing that his triple threat was the main event. It wasn't long until we saw Sami come out as well.. planting little seeds here and there for what could happen during said match.  -Women's Money in the Bank Qualifier: Stephanie Vaquer vs. Ivy Nile vs. Liv Morgan I enjoyed this match very much, and of course it was nice to see Stephanie Vaquer join the main roster. Sadly, we knew the out come before the match even started. It was kind of obvious Ivy wouldn't be moving forward (even tho it would be nice to see her in such a match), but it was a toss up. While it COULD have been interesting if Liv was involved.. it was actually Stephanie that picked up the win. Looks like someone will be booking double duty...

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...
