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...
This is THE final Dynamite before Full Gear and things are heating up in the biggest way! I honestly think that this PPV is going to be HUGE and very telling. We have so many returns that could happen, it's very hard to determine who could show up... and on who. Will we have any title changes? Only time will tell! We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!
-All-Star 8-Man Tag Match (Ospreay/Hobbs/Richochet/Davis vs Takeshita/Fletcher/Archer/Cage)
I loved this match! It was so entertaining and kept strong with the story line of it all. I was very impressed with everyone and how they all had such great chem together. It wasn't really a secret on who would win this but I would rate this very good. The only thing that I didn't like was the ending. Pinning Davis right as he comes back seems like a bad call for me... but it is what it is. Things are going to be interesting seeing that from this match we will be getting Ospreay vs Fletcher and Takeshita vs Richochet as well!
-Kris Statlander vs. Hikaru Shida
I loved this match and I love these two. Not only were they great champs but they are just all around some of the top favorites. I'll admit, I am not a fan of the women's champs at the moment.. but hopefully after this weekend that will change. As expected Kris did take the win.. as she will be going into a champ match with Mone. Is anyone else just REALLY bored with the champs? Mone is very much lacking with her story line.. and Kamille...what a freaking joke bringing her in. She has always been pretty respected but now it seems she is just a dummy figure. It's pretty sad if you ask me.. Please for the love of God let Kris take the win. Now.. I say that... and just know I love Mone and all she has done.. right now she is just lacking with the story line.
**We did see Swerve take a cheap shot on Bobby Lashley in the parking lot before running away.
**Adam Cole did come to the ring and cut a small promo. He was disappointed not to be facing MJF but was confident in Roddy. Kyle O'Reilly came out as well to talk about their journey together.. and did talk about how Adam needs to stop this before someone gets hurt. I thought this was very interesting overall for the story line.
-Bobby Lashley Squash Match
Not even worth mentioning.. but I guess it does add once again to the storyline. After the match Swerve's music hit and he popped out from the ring and attacked Bobby with a chain around his hand. With Swerve getting the upper hand it's not hard to see that Swerve will be losing his match tomorrow night.
-Darby Allin vs. Claudio Castagnoli
I don't ever think that I hated a match with Darby in it. This man has proven himself time and time again that he has IT. This match was no exception. Claudio and Darby tore the house down with this match.. This overall story line of good guys vs bad guys is wonderful and very expandable. In the end, we saw Claudio pick up the win. So what does this mean for Orange and Mox? We also saw Orange telling The Conglomeration very sternly to not help him at Full Gear... this is very telling too.
*The set up of Jericho and Ishii contract signing was too freakin funny. I loved this segment all together and I just pray that Jericho loses the match... Lol
*The MJF promo on Roddy was freaking brutal. Holy cow...
-Wheeler Yuta vs. Orange Cassidy
I don't know what I expected when seeing this match but it wasn't this. This match was freaking awesome! Both of these men put everything out there and it really gave an importance to what was happening at Full Gear overall. In a shocking turn of events, Orange picked up the win. But this came at a price. Pac came out of no where with a kick to OC and the rest of the Death Riders arrived to continue the attack. They duct-tapped his hands to his body and took turns beating him down. The Conglomeration came out and drove them all away.. The showed ended with Orange standing up after the beat down. This man... good God. This match between Orange and Mox is going to be one HELL of a match.
Overall: 9.1/10
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Predictions:
-Mariah May Celebration: Return of someone? Tay? Anna Jay ruining celebration?
-MJF vs Roddy: MJF
-Jay White vs Hangman: Jay White
-Will Ospreay vs Fletcher: Fletcher
-Tag Team Titles: Retaining
-TNT Champ: Daniel Garcia
-Swerve vs Bobby: Bobby
-TBS Champ: Kris
-Mox vs Orange: Mox
**I am fully expecting there to be at least ONE title change and it won't be the World Championship. I am also still thinking that Shane is involved and will be revealed resulting in Orange losing. I am also fully expecting the change from bad to good to start. This means I believe Danny will be winning the TNT title.
Things are going to be good, y'all! Don't forget we also have Smackdown tonight and it is a double taping! There WILL BE SPOILERS!
until next time
