WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

I'm a little late, but here we go. We've got a lot to talk about.. so let's get into it! -Kicking off: Cody Rhodes We didn't get very much but was told by Nick Aldis that we are getting a No 1 Contenders match in which we will see Jacob Fatu vs Drew McIntyre. This is very interesting see that we didn't think Jacob was cleared. Cody did address his loss to Seth.. however now has his eyes set on the new fued that is brewing. This.. should be interesting to say the least.   -Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss vs. Sol Ruca and Zaria (for the Tag Team Titles) I loved this match! I LOVED seeing Sol Ruca and Zaria on the main roster.. and this match delivered overall. However in the end, it was Alexa and Charlotte picked up the win to retain their titles. If you haven't seen this match, please do.. it was worth it. I can't wait to see not only what Alexa and Charlotte will do next.. but what is next for Sol and Zaria.   -United States Championship Open Challenge: Sami...

WWE Smackdown (Oct 18th) Rundown/Review

Smackdown was one for the books, and we've got a lot to talk about! We are TWO weeks away from Crown Jewel and things are heating up! Let's get into it!

-Smackdown opened with Solo and The Bloodline coming to the ring.. letting everyone know that by the end of the night.. Jimmy and Roman would acknowledge him by the end of the night. Hmm.. In a shocking turn of events, Jey Uso came to the ring! Jey told Solo they are still brother and told him to think about what he is doing. Things got a little tense, but nothing physical took place just yet.

-Pretty Deadly vs. DIY vs. Street Profits

This match was pretty good, although a little odd in some moments.. but overall I enjoyed it. I was really pushing for Street Profits and honestly didn't expect this twist of an ending. Ford and Gargano each pinned a different member of Pretty Deadly.. but only one was legal. DIY ended up being the winning team!Good for them! I love to see it!

-Piper Niven vs. Lash Legend

I was pretty hype to see Lash Legend on Smackdown once again, and in a match. We see Jackson and Chelsea Green at ringside in support. This wasn't a very long match but they did a fairly good job making it competitive. Lash is better than I thought, and would love to see her more often if this is their call up. In the end, we saw Niven take a loss and Lash pick up the win.

*At some point we do see a small segment backstage with Jimmy, Roman, and Jey. This is where Roman tells Jey he is proud of him.. While I get that might be a "big deal".. are we really gonna think that is gonna fix anything after everything Roman put Jey through? Too funny! But I like where it is going. There is still about a month (or more) until Survivor Series.. so the story can slow build from there. So far, I like the pace. 

-A-Town Down Under vs. Los Garzas vs. Motor City Machine Guns

No. I don't like they introduced MCMG on social media of all places. Why? Wasn't needed by any means, just let it happen on air. Stupid call if you ask me. Anyway.. I was still PUMPED when MCMG made their entrance! I loved this match all together and thought it went well. I hope Los Garzas are used more often moving forward, this match really gave them a push it seems. In the end, MCMG got a big win for a future title shot at the tag team titles. Too early? Yes.. is it fair? Nope. Does WWE care? No..

-Nia Jax and Candice Lerae vs. Naomi and Bayley

Tiffy was unable to make her match with Nia, so Candice LeRae stepped in. The match was pretty good I'd say.. but this makes me wonder where Tiffy is? I thought this might be a spot to have Nia lose the title but I was wrong. We saw Indi get involved and helped get a win. Candice did get the pin which took Nia by surprise. I really hope moving forward we see Candice used more.. I like her!

-Closing

Roman came out in the end.. and Solo ruined his little segment. Solo wanted Roman to acknowledge him in front of everyone.. and when he did.. it wasn't good enough. Tama, Tanga, and Jacob dragged out a beaten up Jimmy and Roman lost it. He took out everyone but it wasn't good enough. The Bloodline had the numbers and took out Roman to close the show. Hmm.. I saw a good bit of people upset about this. This also makes me wonder who in the world will show up for Roman? Will Jey forgive and join forced? What about Sami? Will this set up Survivor Series in the following weeks? I don't think they will talk more about that until after Crown Jewel! So far there are only two matches set which is for the champions. 

7.2/10

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

*Up next: MONDAY NIGHT RAW

*Will The Wyatt Sicks show up?
*How will Mami react from the beat down from last week?
*Will we see more from Finn/Damian?
*Will Tiffy get involved once again?
*More matches announced for Crown Jewel?

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 ...

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...

WWE Evolution 2 Rundown/Blog

Okay, I didn't expect this PLE to go this hard.. but here we are. I was SHOCKED out of my mind with this. The build up might have not been good, but the show... they did that shit.  -Kicking Off:  Becky Lynch vs. Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria This was a whole lot better than I thought it was going to turn out. While I did want to see Bayley pull off a win, I did have to remember that Summer Slam is just under 3 weeks away. All three women did so damn good, but it was Becky that retained. So does this mean we could infact see Bayley and Becky once again face off at SS next month? Because that would be the best place for Bayley to win. -Jacy Jayne vs. Jordynne Grace I haven't been very familiar with Jacy Jayne, but I liked her! She is pretty good overall. There were some issues here and there within the match but they did their best to recover. However.. as expected we saw Blake Monroe turn on Jordynne Grace to cost her the match by hitting her with the title. It seems we are getting...
