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 (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!

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...
