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...

AEW Title Tuesday Dynamite (Oct 8th) Rundown/Review

It's Wednesday.. and you know what that means.. Dynamite was actually on Tuesday this week. Lol! We've got quite the rundown as this was the final Dynamite until WrestleDream on Saturday! It's gonna be good, so let's get into it!

-It was a hell of an opening for AEW.. we hear Mox give a promo towards Bryan.. said he claimed he had been looking for someone to end his career, and that Moxley was the one. In response, Bryan gave a bit of a promo as well. If you haven't watched both of those, please do before Saturday! It's so good! 

-Darby Allin called out Brody and then talked about their past friendship on the indie scene. He even went as far as to take credit for having Brody hired there at AEW. Both men exchanged words before all hell broke loose.

-Hologram vs. Komander

This match was freakin AMAZING. I love both of these men and they work wonderfully not only together just in general. I love it! I could go on for hours about this match, but in reality.. you just need to watch for yourself if you haven't already. In the end, Hologram picked up the win! However.. that wasn't all that took place. At the end.. Rush, Dralistico, and The Beast Mortos attached BOTH Hologram and Komander as Jake The Snack looked on from the stage. 

*It is noted that at the very start of the show.. Jake The Snake traded Lance Archer to the Callis family.. and Jake's new team would later be revealed . And there we have it.. Also VERY excited to see where this takes Lance moving forward. 

*We see Daniel Garcia FINALLY return and give an update on his time in AEW.. and boy did he deliver. It looks like he is STAYING and has RESIGNED! HELL YEAH! This makes me so happy! Let's just hope he is pushed to the MOON.

-Willow Nightingale vs. Saraya vs. Jamie Hayter vs. Nyla Rose

Sadly, Britt Baker is out right now due to illness... I wish her nothing but love and wellness. I hope we will see her back sooner than later. I won't lie.. I wanted to love this match but it was very all over the place. Like.. some situations were a little odd feeling and not natural but that is just me. We saw Jamie Hayter get attacked by a RETURNING Penelope Ford (LOVE IT) but was then chased away leaving it between Saraya and Willow. Like clockwork (we already knew this) but Willow picked up the win! It looks like we will be getting Mariah May vs Willow at WrestleDream.. I've seen ALOT of hate about this, but I am FOR IT! I think it's going to be really good!

-Jey White had a squash match, not worth even really talking about.. but it does seem there will be a good feud between him and Hangman at WrestleDream. This has potential! 

-Mercedes Moné vs. Emi Sakura

This match was kind of a give, but nothing very hugely noteworthy. I liked it for the most part, and I do feel both women have great chemistry together. All together it was good! After Mone picked up the win.. both Mone and Kamille were ready to attack when Kris came in for the save. It looks like we know who will be Mone's next opponent. 

 *Ospreay and Callis had a little confrontation that turned into a physical problem. We saw Takeshita attack Will..that was until Fletcher did his best to make everything okay again. Ricochet came in for the save. Where does this leave Ospreay and Fletcher? Problems? Or will this end in Kyle leaving the Callis family??

 -Bryan Danielson and Wheeler Yuta vs. PAC and Claudio Castagnoli

 This whole thing had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. You could feel the tension and what was at stake leading up to WrestleDream on Saturday. All the bitterness was very much there. At one point Moxley did show up to try to distract Danielson but that didn't stop him. Bryan and Yuta still were able to pick up the win. Afterwards we saw Marina and Pac attack Yuta but they were called off by Claudio. During that time it looked like payback was going to be served and he was going to hit Yuta with the hammer. Bryan was able to come back and take everyone out at the end. Hmm.. Let me delulu for a moment, thank you.

Prediction(s):
-Yuta is playing Bryan and will turn on him at WrestleDream.
-Mox will reveal Shane McMahon.
-Bryan will actually RETAIN in a turn of events.

Overall: 8.3/10

 WRESTLEDREAM CARD:

-Bryan Danielson vs Jon Moxley: AEW World Championship
-Will Ospreay vs Richochet vs Takeshita: International Championship
-Mariah May vs Willow: Women's Championship
-Young Bucks vs Private Party: Tag Team Titles
-Jack Perry vs Shibata: TNT Title

-Darby Allin vs Brody King
-Hangman vs Jay White
-Swerve Strickland RETURNS

UP NEXT: WWE Friday Night Smackdown

-There is SO MUCH going on this weekend, and I am HYPE over it! 

*I'll be doing my best to tweet Smackdown. If you've noticed I was pretty quite for Dynamite, this was due to an unexpected diagnosis and really needed time to be with family and decompress.

until next time

xoxo,

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...
