WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown

 I'll tell you what.. I guess that tweet wasn't lying about Monday Night Raw...IYKYK. We've got A LOT to talk about.. and a crash out is on the horizon.    -Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Liv Morgan Liv Morgan came to the ring with Dom to give a promo, explaining her actions last week with Nikki Bella. In this, she also called out Iyo Sky.. and she wants another title shot. Iyo came to the ring as well, and it all but seemed like this was a story ready to kick off.  -Ivy Nile vs. Stephanie Vaquer vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Asuka (Queen of the Ring) This match was SO much better than I thought it was going to be overall. I really had this match between two women, and that was Vaquer and Asuka. All women did wonderful, and work so well together. We did see Rhea come out and cost Raquel in return from Rhea's match. And in the end, it was Asuka that got the win! She will now face Alexa Bliss this Friday! That match.. should be very good. It will be interesting t...

AEW Full Gear 2024 (Rundow/Review)

I don't know what I expected fully from this match, but this was one of the best PPVs I've seen recently. We've got ALOT to unpack, so let's get into it!

-AEW World Tag Team Championship 4-Way

I really enjoyed this match, overall. However it was a bit predictable going into it.. knowing that it would be a waste for Private Party to lose the titles. In the end, it didn't take the impressiveness away from the overall match itself. Of course Private Party retained.. but boy do we have another story as well. It looks like Max and Bowen's will be breaking up sooner than later. Between Max with his very telling rap, and throughout the match.. let's not forget he took the pin as well. I am very interesting for two reasons.. who will be next to feud with Private Party... and how will this break up go down?

- Roderick Strong vs. MJF

Holy Lord.. this match was very powerful! We know there is much more to this story.. because of Adam Cole.. and now Kyle O'Rilley. I loved the match, but didn't like the fact we had to see Roddy tap out to MJF. By the end of it we saw Kyle PISSED at Adam Cole for what was caused due to him. So does this mean these two will feud or will Adam Cole go straight for MJF... 

-TBS Championship Match: Kris Statlander vs. Mercedes Moné

OKAYYYYYYY.. I give both of these ladies their flowers with this match. This had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I didn't expect this match to slap the way it did.. but WOAH. While I expected someone to come out and return or debut.. this match overall was worth it overall. After these two WENT TO WAR Mone did retain her title without any outside help. I take back what I said.. respectfully. Regardless of what ANYONE says.. This was Mone's best match in AEW thus far. The question is.. who will she face next?

-"Switchblade" Jay White vs. "Hangman" Adam Page

I went into this match with a bad attitude. I just didn't see this match needed nor did I care these two were facing each other. Baby, I was wrong to feel that way because by the end of it I was LOVING it. These two have such great chem together and I ended up actually enjoying it. In a SHOCKING turn of events, we saw Jay White pick up the win.. and Page was PISSED. He ended up punching out Christopher Daniels and this makes you wonder.. is Hangman going insane? Like.. more insane than he already was?

-Will Ospreay vs. Kyle Fletcher

HOLY LORD.. This match was AMAZING and I could watch it 100 times. Seriously.. I'll say this match was one of THE best of the year. Both men proved themselves in the best way and the ending left you speachless. In the end, it was Fletcher that beat Ospreay CLEAN.. what does this mean for Will Ospreay moving forward? What does it also mean for Mark Davis.. as he did come down to the ring to help Ospreay after his loss. Will he turn and join Fletcher?? 

-Mariah May Celebration

I don't know what I expected with this, but it sure wasn't this. Mina gave a small speech.. and by the end of it... May had done her best to swing a bottle of champagne at her head.. but Mina caught on to what was happening. Mina ended up spearing May off the stage into a table where things were ended there. Mina was busted open pretty good from the mouth.. which enhanced things a bit more. I fully expect Toni to come back but maybe not as Timeless Toni.. I think this could have waited until Dynamite and done a couple of weeks ago.. but that is just me. 

-TNT Championship Match: Daniel Garcia vs. Jack Perry

Some people said this overall match was disappointing but I enjoyed it very much. I thought the story was very well told and the importance was very much there. In a shocking turn of events, we saw Daniel Garcia get Jack in the sharpshooter.. resulting in Jack tapping out. Danny won his first championship! HELL YES! I cannot wait to see Danny will do! 

-AEW International Championship Match: Ricochet vs. Konosuke Takeshita

While this wasn't my favorite, I did think it was pretty good. I've seen a couple of take that this match should have been on Dynamite or that this went on a little longer than it needed.. and I kind of agree in a way. Regardless, these two are wonderful! In the end, we saw Takeshita retain his championship! I've loved his run thus far and can't wait to see who else he will face moving forward. 

- Swerve Strickland vs. Bobby Lashley

Going into this match, we already knew who would win.. but that didn't stop how good this match was. After this match, it had me thinking what else could happen with this feud.. because you already know that it is far from over. In the end, Bobby did get the win.. but the possibilities are endless. Can we also agree that the spot with the announce table was freakin INSANE?? 

-AEW World Championship Match: Orange Cassidy vs. Jon Moxley

This was a fever dream. This was straight up brutal and amazing all at the same time. I don't know what I expected but this sure wasn't it. Orange and Mox went to war in the best way possible and the outcome was even more insane than the match itself. I will say.. I didn't like the way it was almost impossible for Orange to have a chance. You had so many interfere into the match to try and stop OC.. but still OC remained strong and unbothered by it all. In the end, Mox did retain.. but the ending left everyone with their jaw on the floor. Mox and the crew tried to poison Orange with cleaning solution.. and Hangman made the save. Just as this was taking place.. Christian attempted to cash in his title shot. Jay White stopped this from happening. Mox and his crew ran out to get away.. but their truck was struck by a car! LIKE WHAT?? Who was it? Of course.. it was Darby Allin! The Death Riders were able to get in another car and took off.. Darby Allin ( a bloody mess) stood there as the show ended. 

WHAT THE HELL WAS EVEN THAT.

Overall: 9.1/10

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

-Who will be the next ones to go for the Tag Team Titles??
-Will Toni Storm return before World's End?
-How will this all play out with Hangman/Mox/Jay White/Christian Cage?
-What is next for Will Ospreay?
-Who will be the next one to go after the TBS title??

UP NEXT: The FINAL Raw before Survivor Series on Saturday!

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown (April 28th)

We've got one hell of a Monday Night Raw, and we've got a lot to talk about! Let's get into it! -Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman I thought this was wonderful! The promo that Seth gave was AMAZING and really gave a glimpse of what is to come within this group and story. Of course, we did have Sami come out to get a little promo with Seth as well.. and it was pretty damn good. I enjoyed it very much! I still fully believe that this was a push into the direction of Sami joining Seth/Bron/Paul shortly down the road. And this will come in the form of turning on Jey Uso.. I think it's going to be one of the best storylines this year to be honest.  -Rhea vs Roxanne  Are we finally getting Roxanne on the main roster? I hope so! I enjoyed this match overall, but wish it didn't end in a DQ.. I would have loved to have a clean match between these two. It does however look we will get Rhea NOT going for the title again right now (which...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown (April 11th) Rundown/Review

We are officially ONE WEEK away from Wrestlemania, and this one is going to be HUGE! I can't wait! We are going to talk a little bit about everything that has happened last night and then go straight into what I believe will happen next Sat and Sun! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Nick kicks off Smackdown with Randy  We got both men face to face in this, and I won't lie.. it was pretty damn good. Can we please see these two go at it at Mania?? It's been teased for far too long, and it would for sure deliver. However, before it could go any further.. Solo and Tama made themselves known. I think I can speak for everyone when I tell you that the air left everyone's body. But thankfully it was a set up for a tag team match between Randy/LA vs Tama/Solo.. -Women's Gauntlet Match Overall.. we kind of knew who would win this. I will say it was pretty good and nice to see all these teams go at it. I will also mention, whatever this is with Maxx...

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...
