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...
Ahhh! It's good to be back, my friends. The last two weeks have been pretty rough and a unexpected little break is exactly what was needed. But I watched Smackdown last night and enjoyed it very much! We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!
-Opening the show was Jey, Jimmy, and Roman. Jey told Roman to listen to what he had to say.. and Sami Zayn made his way to the ring. Sami went on to say that he never meant to kick Roman on purpose and the only reason he was there was to help out Jey. Sami went on to say that he would be willing to go back to how things used to be, if Roman would apologize.. to Jey. This kind of took me by surprise. Roman went on to apologize to Jey..and said he was sorry he let Jey waste his time with all of this. Roman called out Solo while Sami walked away. Solo came on screen and said he did everything on his time.. not Roman's.
I loved this.. it gave you something and nothing all at once. It makes you think what could happen next.. or if this is even happening to begin with.
-Bayley vs. Candice LeRae
I couldn't get into this match like I wanted to, honestly. Both women are very good, don't get me wrong.. this just wasn't my cup of tea. I would love to see more of a story line in this.. and move forward. I also know we will see more of Candice as well because of her story with Nia in the past few weeks. In the end, we saw Bayley pick up the win. But is this story over? Or are we just getting started?
*Randy Promo
Randy Orton came out and was ready for a fight. KO answered the call and the fight was on. Officials did try to break up the fight but it was no use. We saw KO hit Orton with a pile-driver and they ended up taking Orton out on a stretcher.. all the dramatics. Cody was with Randy in the ambulance, so does this mean we will be getting KO and Cody again due to this?? In an INSANE turn of events, could we see Kevin take the title from Cody down the road? Hmm. This would be something.
-Pretty Deadly vs. DIY
This one took me for a loop. After Johnny was seen talking with MCMGs.. Ciampa was pissed. We saw an old version of him and things aren't looking good for DIY. There was no tag to Johnny at all.. just fight and win. After the match we see Ciampa storm out of the ring and to the back. It's only a matter of time now.. Does this mean we will see a break up and MCMG come in for the save? I would LOVE to see a singles match between Alex Shelley and Ciampa.
-Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair vs. Nia Jax and Tiffany Stratton
I like this match! I personally think all four women work very well together and would love to see more coming up. I would have loved it even more if there wasn't an interference, but I can understand for story reasons why there was. However, in the end we saw Jade/Bianca pick up the win! Could this lead to more down the road? And are we seeing the final few weeks of Tiffy and Nia?? Also.. I am more and more convinced that this is how Tiffy will not be able to cash in successfully. Sadly.. they've planted it before hand that Tiffy would be the ONLY woman to unsuccessfully cash in, if she doesn't do it successfully.
- Motor City Machine Guns vs. A-Town Down Under
If it has anything to do with Motor City Machine Guns.. I'm in! This match was pretty good and I really enjoyed it! This match came after The Waller Effect was canceled and Theory/Waller were pissed. I think this was really fun and enjoyable overall and I think we saw another push of a potential break up of A-Town Down Under.. Of course in the end, we saw MCMG pick up another win! After the match backstage we saw a bit of a break down and it was announced that NEXT WEEK we will see MCMG vs The Street Profits.. HELL YEAH!
* The United States Women's Championship was announced! I am SO HYPE for this!
*Solo/The Bloodline Promo
We saw Solo and The Bloodline come out to the ring for the "Tribal Chief Acknowledgement Ceremony. We did see Roman come out to the ring and stood alone with them all. Roman challenged Solo to a match for the title of Tribal Chief. However.. instead Solo challenged Roman to a War Games match claiming the Sami would be his fifth man. The Bloodline attacked Roman as Zayn looked from the stage. The Usos came out the save Roman but failed. Solo told Sami to kick Roman in the face but kicked Solo instead. The moment was tense but Sami held up his finger with Jimmy and Jey.. and so did Roman after a few moments.
I LOVED this. So are we seeing 4v4 in War Games? Or will we be seeing The Rock and Cody becoming the 5th members?
Overall: 8.6/10

UP NEXT: Monday Night Raw
There has been so much going on lately, it's hard to keep up!
-Rhea Ripley is out until further notice. This makes me believe she will be out until Royal Rumble where she will win.
-Up next for Liv seems to be Iyo Sky, and I think this will be very good!
-Will Finn turn on The Judgement Day?
-Will we see The Wyatt Sicks in action sooner than later? I wonder how The Miz is doing??
until next time
