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 Friday Night Smackdown (Dec 27th) Rundown/Review

I tell you what.. I just am not having the best time with my blog. If you'll notice, I skipped Wednesday Night Dynamite this week.. and to be honest, I just didn't feel like doing it. This week has been so stressful and I just didn't have it in me. I had to really take a step back and think about doing this one today.. Last night James decided he wanted to party.. so what started as bedtime at 7:30pm, ended up being 11:45pm before there was any sleeping. Even after that.. I didn't go to bed until damn near 2am. I am hoping after tonight my drive for wrestling will be back a little. Tonight is World's End for AEW and it's suppose to be a huge one. It's the final show until AEW goes to Max.. 

Last night was also the FINAL Smackdown before they go to 3 hours next week. We are also going into a fun time with WWE, as in almost one week Raw will be on Netflix! It's been said the 1st Raw on Netflix will be one of THE biggest to date. We'll see about that... We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

-Opening the show it was the video package of KO and Cody Rhodes and everything that went down at Main Event. Nick was shown talk about how KO still had the Winged Eagle belt and said he was NOT the champ. After that Nick said Kevin had until the end of the night to return the belt or there would be consequences. I smell another match, somehow... Monday Night Raw? Rumble?

-Bianca Belair, Naomi and Bayley vs. Nia Jax, Tiffany Stratton and Candice LeRae 

I enjoyed this match pretty good for the most part. I really loved how these women have such great in ring chemistry together. Overall, it was enjoyable.. and of course there is history between the women. We saw once again.. another opportunity to cash in on Nia.. but that was stopped by Candice. Tiffy and Candice ended up getting into an argument, which allowed Naomi to pin Candice for the win. I don't like that very much.. due to the fact they keep teasing her cash in, which makes me think she won't do it successfully. They did the same thing with Damian and of course.. he won... but I just can't see this happening 2 years in a row. If they make her cash in unsuccessful.. I feel they ruined a big moment and a lot of time with her having the briefcase. 

-Braun Strowman vs. Austin Theory

This match was okay for the most part. It was a pretty fun match overall as well. Austin Theory shows once again his strength, but it just wasn't enough this time. I am still not over the whole tease of Theory and Waller splitting.. they just kind of forgot about it. I would love to see them feud going into Wrestlemania, resulting in a match between the two. But.. we've got time... so only time will tell.

-The Street Profits vs. Angel and Berto

This match was fun and while I wasn't sure at first.. I enjoyed it. This came after a backstage issue where Pretty Deadly told Street Profits that Angel/Berto were the ones that attacked them a few weeks ago. Things have kind of fallen flat since MCMG lost the titles.. I'd love to see more of a story line with this moving forward. Now, I completely understand that there is a story... it just seems to be at a stand still. Alex Shelley lost to Johnny (after he needed help) and then they are just going to leave it at that?? Huh... Maybe since next week will be 3 hours.. we will see more. 

**Chelsea Green celebrated her US Championship win, and it was wonderful! I loved this whole segment! Also... was that a dig at Piper? Are we going to see a split sooner than later? Hmm.. after the whole thing, we saw Michin come out and go for the attack.. resulting in Chelsea taking off.

-Carmelo Hayes vs. Sami Zayn

This match came after Hayes interrupted Sami and Nick in a conversation. I'll say.. while this whole episode was a little bland, this match really made up for it. I loved it! In the end.. Hayes avoided a Helluva Kick and took off from Strowman who ended up putting him back in the ring. The new Bloodline attacked Sami.. and while Strowman did his best to help but was overpowered. 

-At the end of the show Kevin Owens showed up with the title, and was given an ultimatum by Nick. Right after this, Cody showed up. A ladder match was propose by Cody.. to settle it once and for all and it was then made official. In good KO fashion.. attacked Cody and then stomped on his already injured neck. This should be interesting..

Overall: 6.9/10

=============================================================

We are going into a hell of a time within wrestling for the next two weeks. TONIGHT is World's End with AEW.. and next week will be 6 full hours of WWE wrestling. The following week will be the premier of Raw on Netflix!

-It was announced Rhea vs Liv will now be a Last Woman Standing.
-Who will come out champ at World's End?
-Will there be any returns?
-Will World's End have any returns or debuts?
-Will we see anything from Uncle Howdy?

-I'll be doing my best to LIVE tweet tonight! Be sure to follow along! 

xoxo,

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown (April 28th)

We've got one hell of a Monday Night Raw, and we've got a lot to talk about! Let's get into it! -Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman I thought this was wonderful! The promo that Seth gave was AMAZING and really gave a glimpse of what is to come within this group and story. Of course, we did have Sami come out to get a little promo with Seth as well.. and it was pretty damn good. I enjoyed it very much! I still fully believe that this was a push into the direction of Sami joining Seth/Bron/Paul shortly down the road. And this will come in the form of turning on Jey Uso.. I think it's going to be one of the best storylines this year to be honest.  -Rhea vs Roxanne  Are we finally getting Roxanne on the main roster? I hope so! I enjoyed this match overall, but wish it didn't end in a DQ.. I would have loved to have a clean match between these two. It does however look we will get Rhea NOT going for the title again right now (which...

WWE Friday Night Smackdown (April 11th) Rundown/Review

We are officially ONE WEEK away from Wrestlemania, and this one is going to be HUGE! I can't wait! We are going to talk a little bit about everything that has happened last night and then go straight into what I believe will happen next Sat and Sun! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Nick kicks off Smackdown with Randy  We got both men face to face in this, and I won't lie.. it was pretty damn good. Can we please see these two go at it at Mania?? It's been teased for far too long, and it would for sure deliver. However, before it could go any further.. Solo and Tama made themselves known. I think I can speak for everyone when I tell you that the air left everyone's body. But thankfully it was a set up for a tag team match between Randy/LA vs Tama/Solo.. -Women's Gauntlet Match Overall.. we kind of knew who would win this. I will say it was pretty good and nice to see all these teams go at it. I will also mention, whatever this is with Maxx...

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...
