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 (December 30th) Rundown/Review

 Oh this was a little bitter sweet.. I'll tell you. The last Monday Night Raw on USA Network. Next week we will finally be watching Raw on Netflix and boy... is it going to be HUGE! This week was very interesting, and we've got a lot to talk about. So... for the last time this year... let's get into it!

-I don't know how y'all feel.. but WWE keeps hitting with these openings, and this one didn't disappoint. The show opened with Joe and Wade introducing Jey Uso.. however, they were interrupted by The New Day instead. The boos were there, and they didn't hold back once again. I am loving this by the way! Lol! Not long into that, Jey went ahead and came out to join in on the fun of booing the New Day. After that was said and done Jey went on to call out Drew.. however it was Solo that came on the screen to talk about how he would finally defeat Roman next week.. and be the last one standing at the Tribal Chief. This was a distraction as well.. as Drew was able to attack Jey to close out the segment. Again.. with multiple stories in this, and being able to pull it off.. wonderful! 

-Otis vs. Chad Gable

I have mixed feelings about this overall. This has been something that has NEEDED to happen, but I feel like it easily could keep going too. I really wish Otis could have gotten a win.. he deserves it, and if you think about it.. it could have been THE final straw for Chad. I am very interesting to see how this story line moves forward.. if Chad will really move on or if there is more to it all. With all the talk about "this is over" posting online.. it makes me believe there WILL in fact be more. 

**We saw one hell of a promo/package from Liv and Rhea ahead of their match on Raw next week. With the saying "this has to end" being thrown around.. I have a feeling it will in fact be the end of this saga. I'll be sure to break down Netflix later on in this blog and give my full predictions. 

-R Truth vs. Dunne

There wasn't a match. This was pretty much a waste and could have been simply done backstage. While R-Truth was making his entrance.. Pete attacked Truth from behind throwing the match out all together. 

-Dakota Kai vs. Zoey Stark

This match was pretty good for the most part, you can tell both women really wanted the win. It wasn't very hard (if you look at the card) to see who would win.. and in the end, it was Dakota picked up the win to move on to the finals. Could we possibly see Kai and Iyo in the finals to face each other.. Hmm...

-Damian Priest and The War Raiders vs. The Judgment Day

I enjoyed this match very much! The only thing I really don't care for is the same motions of this story line. It's never ending and honestly.. it's the SAME SHIT. What is the end game for all of this exactly? Because I am completely dumbfounded. I'll love to see more of a change on this but.. only time will tell. In the end, it was Priest and War Raiders that picked up the win. This didn't last long due to Finn getting the cheap beat down on DP. Of course this is going to continue. And did anyone catch Finn telling Raquel to tell Liv good luck on her match on Monday? Is Finn going to cost her? Or will it be Becky?? Hmm.. 

- Sheamus/Ludwig Kaiser

We saw Ludwig come to the ring to call out Bron, however.. this didn't last long due to Sheamus returning and the two went to brawling. I have a feeling this starts the final journey for Ludwig to get the championship.. it's for sure his time. I'd love to see him holding a title before Summer. 

-Lyra Valkyria vs. Iyo Sky

This match took me by complete surprise to be honest. I fully expected Iyo to take this win very easy and quick.. BOYYYY was I wrong. These women put on one hell of show and I was very impressed. In the end, it was Lyra that picked up the shocking win to face Dakota in the finals. Soo... this makes me wonderful, who will actually win? My full guess would be Dakota.. but you can never be sure. 

-CM Punk and Seth Rollins Face-to-Face

Holy shat. If you haven't watched this promo/face to face.. please stop what you are doing, and come back to talk about it. I can't even fully recap this.. but it was INTENSE. I really loved it and the intense atmosphere. This really adds to next week and what will happen. If I am not mistaken.. this will be the main event and from the looks of it.. they will tear each other completely apart. 

Overall: 9.2/10

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

NETFLIX CARD AND PREDICTIONS:

*Tribal Combat: Roman vs Solo (Prediction: Roman wins and The Rock will return)

 *WWE Women's World Championship (Last Woman Standing): Liv vs Rhea (Prediction: Becky will return to cost Liv the title)

CM Punk vs Seth Rollins: Predictions: Seth will win 

Jey Uso vs. Drew McIntyre: Drew will win

John Cena’s retirement tour begins (this makes me so sad and worried as the same time...)

**Wyatt Sicks and The Final Testament will have a promo/segment. I am hoping this will be in ring.. and will finally lead to Uncle Howdy vs Kross at The Royal Rumble.

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

UP NEXT: AEW Wednesday Night Dynamte

**I am pumped for this and it will be the first time Dynamite will be on Max! I have a feeling this will be a big one.

until next time

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...
