WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown

We are so close to the road to Wrestlemania! We are a little over a month away from the Royal Rumble and things are getting HOT! Our next big WWE program will be Monday Night Raw: One Year on Netflix and things could change in a big way. Let's not forget outside of that.. we do have an AEW PPV in a few weeks as well. We have a lot to talk about from Raw, so let's get into it! Kicking off: Gunther After his win over Cena in his final match.. things were up to 11 with this opening. I don't give a damn what anyone says.. this was amazing. You can hate Gunther all you like (or even Triple H) but that doesn't change that he is now one of the best in the business. I love this for him. I love the "I don't give a shit" attitude.. the arrogant vibe, and the shit eating smile. It's perfect and I can't wait to see where go with this next. I did see them teasing AJ Styles... which would be pretty damn good as well.  The Usos vs. New Day I don't like it. We...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review (Nov 15th)

 We are only a few weeks away from Survivor Series and I am SO READY! There are so many matches that haven't been announced and will be hopefully.. this week, so we have A LOT to unpack. Let's get into it!

-This week, Smackdown opened with Cody Rhodes coming out to kick off the show. Of course, we saw a good ole replay of everything that went down last week with KO and Randy.. and The American Nightmare was pissed. In Cody fashion, he called out KO for his actions but it wasn't KO that answered the call. Nick Aldis came out and revealed that KO was not in the building due to Nick not thinking it was the best idea.. The two went back and forth about how they'd handle this situation and Cody said he would not be waiting long for an answer. Hmm..

-B-Fab vs. Bayley vs. Candice LeRae

This was a match that I didn't know that I needed. Um.. B-Fab.. baby girl where have you been? Because YES MA'AM! I hope this isn't the last time we see you in the ring like this. Overall this match was pretty good, there were some messy moments but that is okay. In the end, and as expected.. we saw Bayley pick up the win to move forward in this tournament. 

-LA Knight vs. Berto

LA Knight had an open challenge and the exchange between Escobar/Elektra/Berto was pretty good and funny. While Escobar was the one who accepted the challenge, LA said he had done this and that.. and picked Berto. I thought this was a very good call and these two work very well together. I wouldn't mind seeing more of Berto in the mix moving forward. Like clockwork tho, LA Knight picked up the win and retained his title! After the match LA was attacked by Shinsuke Nakamura in a shocking turn of events. I don't know how to feel about this.. While I LOVE LA Knight I really don't want him to lose it to Shinsuke after only 100ish days. But.. I do know that it has been a while since we've been Shinsuke and does deserve another run. At least let this man keep the title until next year.. please. 

-Motor City Machine Guns vs. Street Profits

This match was PRETTY DAMN GOOD.. regardless of the result of the end. I thought these four men worked so well together, the chem was there my friends. Both teams are well loved and with the tension of The Street Profits.. you never know what will happen. I also couldn't say that MCMG would drop the titles like this. I could FOR SURE see them having the titles until after Wrestlemania. In a shocking turn of events we saw Ciampa attack the Profits which caused a DQ ending. Gargano did his best to clam things down but was shoved out of the way by Ciampa. After DIY took off up the ramp, MCMG did his best to apologize to the Street Profits but Dawkins took out Alex Shelley and walked away. Hmm.. so many things could take place. Are we going to see DIY and Profits next to face MCMG at Survivor Series?? Singles match of Alex Shelley and Dawkins?? What about a triple threat at SS?? With less than two weeks until the big PLE.. they are for sure getting the ball rolling. ALSO... can we please talk about Shelley getting launched over the announce table?? Because oh my God. 

**Sami and The Usos were backstage talking to Roman.. telling him they haven't been able to find a 5th member. Solo and his Bloodline made their way to the ring and the OG Bloodline followed. A brawl took place and Bronson Reed ended up coming to the aid of Solo.. taking out everyone of the OG Bloodline. So... let me get this straight.. we are getting Seth Rollins for the OG team? Good God.

-Nia Jax vs. Naomi

While I am not a huge fan of Naomi, I'll give her this. She is very good in the ring and her character is wonderful. This match was very good in my opinion, and for some reason I had it in my head that she was going to shock everyone and win. However this just wasn't the case. I am convinced that she will be winning the Royal Rumble but that is just me. We saw Raquel and Liv attack Belair and Cargill backstage. Tiffy did show up and get involved to help Nia out. Like clock work, Bayley came out too to help Naomi. We also saw Candice come to help Nia as well. Now.. I am FULLY convinced that Tiffy will not be successful in cashing in. Nia was able to retain her title in the end. 

Overall: 8.4/10

UP NEXT: Monday Night Raw

We've got SO MUCH to look forward to in the next TWO weeks with wrestling. AEW will be having Full Gear this Saturday and next after that will be Survivor Series. Who know what will happen or who will show up. SS is one of those PPVs that anything can happen. 

-Monday will be FINALLY be making both War Games official?
-Will there be more matches announced?
-This is the FINAL Wednesday Night Dynamite before Full Gear

This will be a pretty busy week for me, so bare with me on content. I'm doing my best!

until next time

xoxo,

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...

WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown/Review

What a time, everyone. I have been going going going for the last week or so.. so much that I haven't blogged. I hate when I have to skip weeks, but to be honest... sometimes it is like that. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking off Raw: Rhea Ripley We love Mami.. and she is MAD. Rhea addresses the attack of Asuka from last week.. which of course resulted in Iyo to come out as well. It wasn't long until Asuka and Kairi made themselves known and a brawl was set. This time.. it was Iyo that was misted by Asuka. My guess is that we are going to see some tag team action much sooner than later. I enjoyed this very much overall.. and am pretty happy that we are having Rhea and Iyo set away from the title action. But the question is.. when it is all set and done, are we going to see Rhea or Iyo turn on one another in a shocking turn of events? -Intercontinental Championship: Dominik Mysterio vs. Rusev I won't lie.. I was a little shocked about this...

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...
