WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

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...

WWE Monday Night Raw (Nov 18th) Rundown/Review

We are getting SO CLOSE to Survivor Series and I am HYPE for this. Survivor Series is always a very exciting PLE and this one is no exception. We've got one more week until the big day and things are heating up. We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!

-This week's Raw was previously taped, so hopefully you were able to stay clear from the spoilers.. I know I didn't. 

-This Monday kicked off with Liv and Raquel kicking off the show to do a promo, which led to Nia, Tiffy, and Candice having her back. However this didn't last long due to Jade, Bianca, Iyo and Naomi interrupting the heels. It wasn't long until we saw the final member of the "baby face" team which ended up being Mami making her grand return. Mami head butted Liv and the brawl was on. I honestly cannot wait for this match! It's going to be so damn good! I am pretty excited for this to play out!

-Rey Mysterio and Zelina Vega vs. Chad Gable and Ivy Nile

This feud has been pretty good overall, and so far.. I have enjoyed it. This match was no exception. I love that the WWE has been doing more mixed matches like this, and I feel like it should be more of a normal situation, but that is just me. Ivy and Vega have pretty good chem in the ring and I'd love to see more of both. either together or in other feuds. In the end, we saw Gable not allow Ivy to tag in.. resulting in a loss for him. We saw what we thought was the end of American Made.. but it seems their screaming and pushing each other around motivated them even more. Weird.. but okay. 

*With the regards to some backstage promos.. are we finally getting a turn from Dom? Things don't seem very good within The Judgement Day.. and it is boiling over with Dom and Finn. With that being said...

On this episode of "Let Me Be Delulu": WHAT IF... As you know, Finn is still pretty strung up about DP getting another title shot with Gunther. What if Finn tries to cost DP, and Dom steps in and actually helps DP win the title back? Like.. total swerve! I mean.. it would make sense according to the reports I've seen recently. 

-Intercontinental Championship: Sheamus vs. Bron Breakker

I loved this match! I wasn't too thrilled with the overall ending but I can see where they are going with this. Sheamus was a wonderful champ previously, and this would be good for him to win again.. however I am loving Bron Breakker's run thus far. His main roster run has been great! In the end, we did see Ludwig cause a no contest.. so I can assume we will see a 3 way match sooner than later. I think Ludwig could be a great champ..and it would be a wonderful way to continue the issue with Gunther. 

-The War Raiders vs. Dominik Mysterio and Carlito

I wasn't thrilled with this match, but I can see two stories. You have the hype of the War Raiders.. which I wanna like, but I feel it's so forced. The other would be the situation with Dom and Finn. Dom said he could do this with Carlito.. and didn't. After the match Finn and JD gave the post match beat down. This whole situation with the Judgement Day is so odd.. you honestly don't know what will happen or who will be the one to turn. 

**We saw a very cryptic video from Bo Dallas. Y'all.. this made me tear up so bad. Taylor looks SO MUCH like Windham it is insane. While he does look to be in good physical shape, he has some more weight to his face.. and the beard/mustache makes him identical to Windham. Once again he warned The Miz saying that his hands were going to be stained blood red no thanks to his actions. He said, "I never wanted this". Things are heating up.. and I am here for it, my friends.

-Seth Rollins vs. Bronson Reed

Once again we got these two going at it again and I LOVE IT. These two put on one hell of a show and I could watch them go at it again and again. This time was a bit different however.. Solo made himself known to give a little distraction. This distraction led to the demise of Seth.. allowing Bronson to get the win. 

It looks like we will be getting Seth in the War Games after all... Hmmmm

I guess we will find out more on Friday Night Smackdown!

Overall: 8.9/10

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

We are in PPV week and I LOVE IT! This week has also been so freakin busy lately.. I need a slow down so fast. But up next.. we have THE FINAL Dynamite before Full Gear! 

until next time

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 ...

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...

WWE Evolution 2 Rundown/Blog

Okay, I didn't expect this PLE to go this hard.. but here we are. I was SHOCKED out of my mind with this. The build up might have not been good, but the show... they did that shit.  -Kicking Off:  Becky Lynch vs. Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria This was a whole lot better than I thought it was going to turn out. While I did want to see Bayley pull off a win, I did have to remember that Summer Slam is just under 3 weeks away. All three women did so damn good, but it was Becky that retained. So does this mean we could infact see Bayley and Becky once again face off at SS next month? Because that would be the best place for Bayley to win. -Jacy Jayne vs. Jordynne Grace I haven't been very familiar with Jacy Jayne, but I liked her! She is pretty good overall. There were some issues here and there within the match but they did their best to recover. However.. as expected we saw Blake Monroe turn on Jordynne Grace to cost her the match by hitting her with the title. It seems we are getting...
