WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown/Review

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...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown (Rundown/Review) Nov 1st

This Smackdown was recorded from last week as this week.. WWE is in Saudi for Crown Jewel! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

-The show kicked off with Nia/Tiffy and Liv/Dom promo situation. This was pretty good and led to the match between Tiffy and Liv. This led a lot what might happen at CJ today! Will Tiffy finally cash in? But the question is.. WHO will she cash in on??

-Tiffany Stratton vs. Liv Morgan

This match was pretty short and honestly didn't give us much overall. Liv was able to pick up the win but it was Nia that took everyone out with Tiffy's briefcase. I didn't really care for this very much but I can understand that it was for the story and what all is at stake. 

-The Street Profits vs. Pretty Deadly

I really enjoyed this match but really wanted it to be longer than what it was. I would love to see a more thought out situation.. and is there even a story line? I really hope things will get better now that MCMG are tag champs.. will this really push the tag team division to pull out all the stops? I hope so! In the end, The Street Profits picked up the win.

-Naomi and Bayley vs. Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae

This match made me pretty sad, seeing that it was Indi's last match with WWE. She didn't deserve that, but in the end.. I know she will do wonderful with whatever she decides to do moving forward. The match itself was okay, it wasn't great.. and to be honest there were a few moments that had me scratching my head. A little awkward and weird at times. In the end, it was Naomi and Bayley that picked up the win.

-OG Bloodline

YESSSS! This made me so freaking happy! Jey, Jimmy, and Roman came to the ring to settle differences before their big match today. Jey said he is doing this to get back at Solo for costing him the title match but the problems between him and Roman were far from being fixed. Jey made his peace and said they were equal.. in the end Roman said "YEET" and the pop was massive. At the end of the segment, all three put up the 1s like they use to. Some people said this was pushed way too soon but I can understand why. Don't forget they still have to incorporate Sami and that might take some time as well. There is still some tension between Jimmy, Jey, and Roman.. this might have a factor in this too. They have 4 weeks to pull this off.

-Iyo Sky vs. Bianca Belair vs. Lash Legend vs. Piper Niven

I don't know who to feel about this match. I wanted to like it, but it really felt flat for the most part. I will give it to both Iyo and Bianca.. they really held things together and there was some stand out moments. In the end, Iyo picked up the win. I didn't expect this to be honest.. I really thought Bianca would take it. I think today will be really great for the women.. and this tag team match will stand out in the best way! 

-Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther and Ludwig Kaiser

There wasn't a lot of wrestling in the match, it seemed but it did start with 10 mins left. The match itself was pretty solid! All of this really got me excited for tomorrow and has me wondering for both matches. In the end, Cody pinned Ludwig! KO ended up showing up and attacked Orton with a chair, while Gunther choked out Cody with a sleeper. Hmm.. 

*During Smackdown we saw a backstage segment with Motor City Machine Guns in which A-Town Down Under invited them to their talk show next week. I thought it was too funny about Alex Shelley saying they were going to be on The Miz TV.. as Waller said they needed to be on the best talk show. Too funny! I am also excited to see how this plays out... I am sure it comes with a match. 

Overall: 8.6/10

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

*With Rhea out.. who will be next to face Liv if Tiffy doesn't cash in?
*Is The Rock going to be involved in the Bloodline match?
*Will we have NEW Women's Tag Team Champs?
*Can KO win clean?
*Will Gunther win against Cody? Or will someone interfere?

There is so much going on! Remember, Crown Jewel is going on NOW.. but I will not be watching until tonight! You'll get my full review on this tomorrow afternoon!

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 ...

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...

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...
