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 Monday Night Raw (Dec 23rd) Rundown/Review

I am finally back! What a freakin time we've had the last week. Once again, a hell of a sickness hit the household and we've been out. What started out as an ear infection for James.. ended up being a cold too. And it's safe to say that I caught it as well. Thankfully I am on the upper side of it all! The next two weeks will be pretty good in the wrestling world and you should get excited! Not only do we have World's End on Saturday.. but in less than TWO WEEKS.. we will see Raw on Netflix!We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!

-Drew/Sami Promo

If you haven't watched this promo, I think you should. These two went back and forth before things unfolded into a brawl. However it wasn't too long until we saw Jey return after being attacked to help out Sami! While I wasn't too sure about this overall angle as it started, I am really starting to enjoy this story line. It will be very interesting to see how it all plays out moving forward. 

-Women's Intercontinental Championship Tournament: Iyo Sky vs. Natalya vs. Alba Fyre

I thought this overall match was pretty good. I was fully expecting Nattie to win.. honestly, because she hasn't won anything any a while in singles.. and she hasn't been back for very long either. It did take me by surprise when Iyo picked up the pin fall to move on in the tournament. I have a feeling we just might see Dakato and Iyo face off in the finals. Hmm.. are we seeing a heel turn in Damage Control.. 

-Chad Gable vs. Akira Tozawa

I ain't thrilled. Simple as that. Now.. don't get me wrong... I love Otis and Tozawa, but this just wasn't it. Where was this previously.. after the Wyatt Sicks situation?? I do love they are going back to this, just so we can see Chad vs Otis at some point in the near future. I honestly believe Otis deserves a big win and against Chad would be perfect! 

-Damian Priest vs. Dominik Mysterio

Can we please move on? Please.. I can see moving forward in the story line (kinda) but it's the same situation constantly. I can see how they are already making the right steps for the turn on Finn.. and this was another step. We can honestly say this wasn't a real match.. due to Finn getting involved. We also saw The War Raiders come to the aid of Damian, which was such a nice touch. I have a feeling going into Raw on Netflix we will see the end of Judgement Day and this whole feud. 

-The Miz vs. Dexter Lumis

I wish this match would have been longer, but I can understand. I did LOVE Dexter's entrance, so creepy in the best way. This match didn't last very long due to Final Testament getting involved resulting in a DQ. The rest of the Wyatt Sicks did come to the aid of Dex, except Uncle Howdy.. who was no where to be seen. It's also good to mention we saw a little "clue" being flashed across the screen after Miz come out saying.. "I Opened The Door".. so what does this mean? Is this a reference to Alexa Bliss? Or is there something else in store for Uncle Howdy a little more sinister? Only time will tell.. I can tell you, while this story line is slow, it will be a MAJOR part of 2025! If you are a little bummed about how slow this is all going, this let me let you in on this.. there will be ups and downs, and if you will also remember... Bray and Taylor love the little details and long story lines. Be patient my friends, it's worth it!

-Drew McIntyre vs. Sami Zayn

After that promo from earlier in the show, this match was so good! The energy of it all was really set in stone. It was really hard for me to pick who should win because I love both men.. but it was already stated that Sami has never beaten Drew clean. That was a dead give away.. In the end, it was in fact Drew that picked up the win to end the night. Hm...are we now set for Drew vs Jey?? I'd love to see it!

Overall: 8.9/10

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

UP NEXT: AEW Christmas Wednesday Night Dynamite 

-Will there be any returns or shocking change of titles at World's End?
-Who will walk about NEW AEW Champ?
-Will it be the end of Nia and Tiffy?
-What other matches could be set for Raw on Netflix premier??

So much happening, and I can't wait! 

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...
