WWE Monday Night Raw (Nov 11th) Rundown Review

We are back back, my friends! A week off was nice and all but it actually feels good to be back. Did anyone else love Monday Night Raw? Because I thought it was pretty dang good this week. Now don't forget they did do a double taping, so there ARE some spoilers out there on Twitter because people are assholes.. but anyway. If you don't want to see them, don't go looking for them. Also.. to be safe, you might want to be clear of Twitter or look into muting it all together. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get started! 

-Gunther Kicks Off Raw

 Kicking off Raw this week was Gunther to address Damian Priest, who became the number 1 contender last week. Maybe just a few words in, DP came to the ring to address Gunther as well. The two went back and forth..Damian goes on to say that Gunther was a shell of who he used to be in the months after winning the championship, and then after losing to Cody at Crown Jewel. Ludwig interrupted at some point, only for Gunther to stop him. Words went to being physical and that pretty much ended the segment.. Gunther never said anything about DPs claims, which led me to think he won't have a long run like I thought, but I could be wrong. I still have this feeling that it isn't over with Finn and Damian and that will be the result at Survivor Series. 

-Damage CTRL vs. Pure Fusion Collective

First of all... Dakota Kai is BACKKKK! With that being said, I really wish this would have been done better but that is just me. I am just not a fan of Pure Fusion Collective. I love them individually, but not in a group. However.. this is just my opinion. In the end, we saw Damage CTRL pick up the win.

-Kofi Kingston vs. Pete Dunne

This match came from a backstage segment. We do also see Woods in the corner for Kofi! I will say that this match was purely for story line purposes, as we can still feel more and more tension build as weeks go on. We also know that there will be a New Day Celebration coming up before the end of the month. This is FOR SURE when all hell will break loose.  At some point we have Woods take out Pete at ringside.. and of course Kingston didn't like this. They started arguing and the distraction allowed Pete to deliver the Bitter End to get the win. I am still torn on who will turn on who moving forward.. 

-Bronson Reed Promo

Once again we saw a pissed off Bronson Reed and he took NO time calling out Seth. It wasn't long until we got what we all wanted and Seth came out to brawl once again at ringside. It looks like once again.. we will be getting a fight between the two. Is this the final one? Is third times a charm??

 **BACKSTAGE: 

-Seth Rollins was PISSED and demanded a match once again with Big Bronson Reed. Adam Pearce gave him what he wanted.. one final match, and one on one.

-We saw Sami talk with Seth and asked to set his differences aside with Roman to team with them at War Games. By the look in his eyes and his tone.. it's a very much NO

 

-Damian Priest vs. Ludwig Kaiser

 I thought his match was pretty fun all together. I'd love to see these two work together more moving forward. However it wasn't long until we saw South of Heaven for the win against Ludwig.

-Karrion Kross/The Miz/WyattSicks

 Backstage we saw The Final Testament catch up with The Miz after The Wyatts let him go. There were words back and forth before Kross drags Miz to the ring. While at the ring.. Kross demanded to know where the Wyatts were and he got his wish. The lights went out and when they came back on.. there they were with Uncle Howdy leading the way on the ring apron. In a shocking turn of events, The Miz hit Rowan with a chair which led to Howdy laughing.. and a brawl was under way. The Final Testament laid out The Wyatt Sicks and the fled before things went any further. As Kross walked away looking at Uncle Howdy.. he realized he was laughing maniacally.. to close the segment. The look on Kross's face said it all. He knew he screwed up. I cannot wait to see where this will go. I feel like after this Uncle Howdy knew this was coming.. he expected it. I've seen so many people saying that this was the wrong call.. but I think it was just fine. It's like the Wyatts are suppose to be untouchable, but if you'll remember that Bray took spots like this too and it was just fine. I can't wait to see how this will be moving forward. 

-Women's Tag Team Championship (Bianca/Jade vs Liv Morgan/Raquel)

I don't know about this at all. Now.. this isn't a team or talent situation for me, it's more of a booking problem. Why tho.. why was this even really needed? War Games between the women? Another match where Liv and Raquel actually take the titles? If they end up taking the titles I swear I will lose my shit. Nia and Tiffy did get involved as well.. but it wasn't good enough! Jade and Bianca still picked up the win to retain the titles. So... where does this go from here?

Overall: 9.4/10
