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 (Oct 7th) Rundown/Review

This was the first Monday Night Raw that was TWO hours since July of 2012! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

-The night kicked off with CM Punk, he didn't say very much.. but enough. He thanked his fans and all but said he wasn't sure about his future moving forward. So I am guessing Punk will be taking a bit of a break.. going into Crown Jewel in November. Hm.. He was interpreted by Seth Rollins... but words were not exchanged at this point. 

-Seth came to the ring and gave a promo after everything went down with Bronson Reed in the following months. He issued a challenge, but was then interrupted by Jey Uso.. who had a match next. Things seemed to get a little tense but never went further than that. Are we getting Seth vs Punk... or Seth vs Jey? Either way, I am HERE FOR IT!

-Jey Uso vs. Xavier Woods

This match was much shorter than I thought it was going to be. Good.. but short. I was really looking forard to this match and hoping we would get a little more insight to the whole Woods/Kofi situation. However, that wasn't the case this time. The match went on, and Jey Uso picked up the win. At the end, we saw Jey offer a handshake as a way of respect, but Woods was bitter and declined. Hmm.. interesting. Are we getting the full turn during the anniversary of The New Day next month? In a turn of events we saw Bron Breakker attack Jey with a Spear. Kingston attempted to help but was taken down as well. Woods did watch from the sidelines and did not help. Once again... Hmm... While I would love for them to go at it again, I hope it isn't something that is over done. 

-Good Ol' Fashioned Donnybrook: Sheamus vs. Pete Dunne

I don't know what I really expected during this match but I am a little frustrated overall. The match itself was PRETTY DAMN GOOD. Both men work very well together and the work paid off on giving everything they had. However, I am not happy with the ending. Why not put over Pete during all of this? It seems that Sheamus has been the overall winner in this, which just doesn't seem right but.. oh well. Does this mean ONCE AGAIN we will be seeing another match, with Pete standing tall? Please don't burn these two out. 

-10-Woman Tag Team Match

Natalya, Kayden Carter, Katana Chance, Zelina Vega and Lyra Valkyria vs Zoey Stark, Shayna Baszler, Sonya Deville, Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre. Okay... let's hurt some feelings. This match sucked. Plain and simple.. I felt like there was no direction and it was a bit messy. Also.. have we not seen this match 100 times within the last 2 months? I get story lines, and building it up.. but this is stupid at this point. In the end, Natalya, Carter, Chance, Vega and Valkyria picked up the win! 

*Backstage we saw The Miz and Kross speaking with each other and it's been made VERY clear that The Wyatt Sicks have picked their next target in The Miz/Kross.. The thing is.. when will they strike next. We have R-Truth vs The Miz next week so I feel it's only a matter of time. 

-World Heavyweight Championship: Sami Zayn vs. Gunther

Okay, this match was pretty dang good. I had this feeling in my head that we just MIGHT see Sami win this championship. But in my heart, I knew Gunther would keep his title for a little while longer. It made me feel that way due to the fact they already had the TWO posters for Crown Jewel. The match itself went pretty well and made everyone unsure of the final outcome. In the end, Gunther applied his sleeper on Sami and the match was stopped via ref stoppage. WOW.. didn't expect to see that one at all. 

So... now it's official! It will be Gunther vs Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel in November! That is gonna be pretty damn good! 

7.8/10

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

Up next: Wednesday Night Dynamite

-I have already seen Dynamite, but sadly I won't have this one up until maybe tomorrow or later on today. I haven't decided on what I will do just yet. Yesterday was pretty busy and I just didn't have it in me to blog nor tweet very much.

-This is THE final Dynamite until WrestleDream which is THIS Saturday! 

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...
