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 2nd) Rundown/Review

I am a couple of days late, and sometimes... it will be like that. Between this horrible ear infection and the holidays.. life has gotten rough. But.. after this week I will be on the road to more consistent posting. Dynamite will be late as well, but.. again...that's okay. We've got ONE HECK of a Monday Night Raw to talk about, so let's brace ourselves.. and get into it! 

-Opening the show was CM Punk.. and he wasn't no time at all letting us know what he was after next. It looks like Punk is ready for his WrestleMania moment. It wasn't long until Seth made himself known and an exchange was out there.. right before a small brawl. This led to Jey and Sami coming to the ring to help out. Seth and Zayn ended up having words.. resulting in a match for the main event. 

Overall, I really liked this. Of course it was commercial free and that made the difference. This overall promo was pretty spot on and I enjoyed it very much. If you haven't seen all of this unfold.. then you should go back and take a listen. 

-Damage CTRL vs. Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez

Didn't really like this overall. It was rushed and squashy to be honest.. wasn't needed. It gave the whole "we lost at Survivor Series and needed a win to show we are on top" vibe. Sane was pinned and Rhea made the save only to be "injured" by Raquel. I know this goes into 2 things.. it was announced we will see Iyo face Morgan at Main Event so that is something to build.. and it sends Rhea out for a while. This will most likely result in a rumble spot? 

*I also read that the betting odds were out for The Royal Rumble and Becky is the highest to win? Hmm.. All signs have shown she will be returning sooner or later due to her being present at the WWE/Netflix event just days ago. 

-Dakota Kai vs. Katana Chance vs. Shayna Baszler (Intercontinental Title)

This match was alright for the most part. It was a little hard to see who would win this.. because all women are wonderful in their own right. While I was very impressed with Katana.. it was Dakota Kai that took home the win to move on in this tournament. Not expected but pleased with the outcome. Maybe we will see her win the whole thing and prove everyone wrong? Only time will tell!

-10 Years of The New Day

Who else cried? And not for how you think? Because what the hell was even this. We saw Kofi and Woods come to the ring.. with all their accomplishments to be seen. We even saw a small video about their 10 years as well. But once in the ring we knew something was up. Both men talked as though they were about to announce that they were done and they were going separate ways. Next thing we know.. Big E made his return to help both men out. Big E had said he was ready to be there every single week for them as their manager.. and to help them until he was cleared. The way I was almost jumping up and down from happiness...but what happened next really just smacked the smile off my face. KOFI AND WOODS TURNED ON THIS MAN. They blamed him for "putting himself first" and all but ripped him a new one. Big E poured his heart and soul out to Woods and Kofi.. but it wasn't changing their minds. For a moment, Big E looked ready to cry.. if he wasn't already.. he begged them to change their minds and it honestly WRECKED me. E ended up leaving the ring in disbelief... heartbroken. Woods and Kofi linked in arms saying "It's just us now"... as the segment ended. WHAT THE WHAT...  If you can stomach it, please go watch it. My heart just wasn't ready for this.

**On this episode of Let Me Be Delulu: Please let E get cleared and beat the hell out of both of them. Thank you. 

-Gunther vs. Dominik Mysterio

I actually liked this match. It was very giving of what could be moving forward. Dom did really good in the match and he was very much liked in the crowd. Hmm.. and to be honest.. he might be starting to grow on me a little. We already know where this is going tho. Finn is next to most likely face Gunther.. and him losing just might be what drives him over the edge with the Judgement Day. I see a Dom vs Finn in the very near future. I mean.. we can't sit here and say that it hasn't been teased over the last few weeks.

-R-Truth vs. Pete Dunne

Mixed feelings about this one. While I love Truth and everything that he has done... I  just don't think this was a good look for Pete. This was more of a situation of a "funny" and not serious match, which.. both men deserve better match situations. 

**Jey Uso was attacked backstage and there was speculation that it was Seth.. but only time will tell huh?

-Sami Zayn vs. Seth Rollins

I thought this match was pretty good overall! It was very much emotion controlled and you could tell. In the end.. Zayn let it all get the better of him.. resulting in Rollins picking up the win. Seth did his best after the match to tell his side and let Sami know that he did NOT attack Jey.. With that said and done.. Seth made his way up to the stage. A hooded man hit Sami with a Claymore and it was then revealed that it was Drew McIntyre making his return! WHAT! I did NOT expect that at all! 

I AM HERE FOR IT THO!

Overall: 9.5/10

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

-Are we expecting Rhea to be out a while? While the focus is going to be on Liv and Iyo?
-Who are YOU thinking will win the Women's  Intercontinental title?
-It was announced The Wyatt Sicks vs The Final Testament NEXT WEEK!
-How will Drew explain his actions next week against Sami??

-So much happening! One of THE best Raws in a while! 

**UP NEXT: Dynamite

-I am fully aware that Dynamite has happened and I've seen some things that happened.. but I haven't watched fully. I will be sitting down tonight to watch the full episode and I'll give a full rundown tomorrow morning/afternoon! 

until next time

xoxo,
Chels

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...

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...
