Oh boy.. Last night was Bad Blood.. and it was something else, let me tell you. We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!
-Hell in a Cell: CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre
At first I was pretty pissed that this match was starting off the show, but by the end.. I understand now. HOLY GOD THIS WAS BRUTAL! Give these men their flowers and some time off.. because OUCH! These men went straight to WAR with each other and to be honest.. it was amazing. There was some pretty rough spots tho.. At first, when Punk was thrown into the cage.. that was brutal. But went Drew started gushing.. I was hollering. I didn't expect all of this, to be honest. The bracelet beads came into play and there was also a very beautiful throw back to Steve Austin and Bret Hart thrown into the mix. In the end, it was CM Punk that was the winner. So with this story over.. where does this leave both men? Who will they face next?
-WWE Women's Championship: Bayley vs. Nia Jax
I am so torn with this match, because overall I was SO WRONG.. I'm not mad about it either, I just thought it was pretty funny.. my vision, and then what really happened. The match itself was pretty good, and both ladies did AMAZING. There were some pretty close calls with Bayley picking up the win, but Nia was too much for her. We did here TIFFY TIME.. and to be honest.. I thought it was happening. With the ref destracted, Tiffy helped Nia pick up the win..but the tension is still very much there. I am begging this to not be a failed cash in, but the more this goes on.. the longer I am convinced that is what will be happening.
-Damian Priest vs. Finn Bálor
I stated this before, and I will again... where was the hype for this match? Also.. are we getting Demon Balor.. because that "look" Finn had sure suggested it. Hmm.. I thought this match was pretty well done, and added more to the story. Once again we saw that Finn would have needed help, and almost had the match won. DP said NOPE.. and picked up the win, even with Carlito on the outside. Does this mean we are getting more of this? PLEASE..
- Triple H's "Historic" Announcement
What kind of shit is this? Where is the announcement of the Elimination Chamber being in the UK in March?? Instead we get THIS?? Oh boy. Triple H made the announcement that on November 2nd at Crown Jewel in Saudi.. two men and women's champions would compete against each other.. and will win the new stupidly diamond-studded belt. BYE... Afterwards we got a little spat with Gunther and Goldberg of all people. For the love of God.. do NOT put Gunther in the ring with Goldberg. That man is young and has a whole career ahead of him... we don't need botch man risking anything.
-Women's World Championship: Rhea Ripley vs. Liv Morgan
OH BOY, let's hurt some feelings. This match sucked rotten walnuts. Let me re-do that.. the first part of the match was pretty good, I guess. At some point, Dom opened the cage door and fell... resulting in him hanging by his leg from the cage. Perfect place for Liv to be distracted and Rhea to pick up the win. NOT! Rhea then went on to be the shit out of him with a kendo stick. Raquel made her return with NO pop what so ever.. taking out Rhea and resulting in a disqualification for the win. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?? I thought this was going to end things once and for all? Nope. I've read that this was actually botched but they went with it anyway. I guess that this means we are going to get Rhea/Raquel for a few months before Rhea wins the Royal Rumble in February. Ugh!
-Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns vs. Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu
It took Cody and Roman 13 minutes to come to the ring.
Overall I thought this match was pretty good, and told a pretty good story along the way. I think everyone expecting someone to turn.. I sure did. I also didn't expect Roman and Cody to work so well together, but they did amazing. Can we also talk about how Cody FLEW off the top rope into Jacob Fatu?? Didn't see that one coming Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa made themselves known HOWEVER.. JIMMYYYYY made his return taking them both out. This allowed Roman to give Solo a hell of a spear for the win!
After the match there was a bit of a beat down on Cody.. however Roman and Jimmy came back to make the save. To end the show, The Rock RETURNED and made himself known. The staredown was pretty intense.. and he counted 1, 2, 3... was he looking at Roman or Cody? From what I've read (because I sure don't remember).. he was looking at Cody.. reminding him that he pinned him on night 1 of Wrestlemaina.
We are getting Cody vs The Rock aren't we? Hmm..
*NOTED: There is now video circulating that Kevin Owens ATTACKED Cody Rhodes in the parking lot by his bus. I am guessing this will be fully revealed on Friday Night Smackdown. Oh.. this is getting GOOD!
Overall: 8.9/10
