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...
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
