WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

I'm a little late, but here we go. We've got a lot to talk about.. so let's get into it! -Kicking off: Cody Rhodes We didn't get very much but was told by Nick Aldis that we are getting a No 1 Contenders match in which we will see Jacob Fatu vs Drew McIntyre. This is very interesting see that we didn't think Jacob was cleared. Cody did address his loss to Seth.. however now has his eyes set on the new fued that is brewing. This.. should be interesting to say the least.   -Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss vs. Sol Ruca and Zaria (for the Tag Team Titles) I loved this match! I LOVED seeing Sol Ruca and Zaria on the main roster.. and this match delivered overall. However in the end, it was Alexa and Charlotte picked up the win to retain their titles. If you haven't seen this match, please do.. it was worth it. I can't wait to see not only what Alexa and Charlotte will do next.. but what is next for Sol and Zaria.   -United States Championship Open Challenge: Sami...

WWE Saturday Night Main Event (Dec 14th) Rundown/Review

 I don't know exactly what I was expecting with this, but I was pretty impressed overall. The whole set up was wonderful! From the set, the ropes, the dress code.. it all looked amazing! Let's not forget Pat and Jesse doing their thing in the best way they know how. We've got a lot to unpack, so let's get into it!

-Sami Zayn vs. Drew McIntyre 

This match was pretty damn good, from start to finish. Let's not forget.. the crowd was red hot for this. I wasn't exactly sure where this feud was going into this.. but now I am all for it. It seems Drew is going for Roman? I don't mind that at all! These two set the bar pretty high for the entire show, I'll be brave enough to say. In the end, it was Drew that brought home the win. I'll be pretty excited to see how this goes moving forward. 

-Women's World Championship Match: Iyo Sky vs. Liv Morgan

This match didn't go as I thought it did, but was still pretty good in my book. There were a few messy spots that were a little worry some.. I thought Liv broke her nose from that kick from Iyo.. later it was posted that she is fine, just a bloody nose overall. Liv's final move on Iyo looked insane and a little choppy.. but it allowed Liv to get the win and retain her title. I am pretty shocked there wasn't an interference to be honest.. and I am glad there wasn't. Liv's celebration was cut short due to Rhea making herself know.. and to let Liv know that this wasn't over between them. Hmm.. this makes you wonder who will win the Rumble. Will it be Rhea? Iyo... or a returning Becky? Could we even see Charlotte being thrown in the mix?

-World Heavyweight Championship Match: Damian Priest vs. Finn Bálor vs. Gunther

Another match that really took me by surprise. I didn't expect it to be THIS good! I was going into this match fully expecting Finn to steal the win.. OR having Dom come in to help Damian pick up the win. None of that took place,but what did take place was one HELL of a match. For me, it had me on the edge of my seat.. and in the end, it was Finn that took the pin for Gunther to retain his title. Once again we see Damian be saved from the "loss" and Finn taking the L ... maybe we are seeing the FINAL curtain call for Judgement Day. With Finn losing. it does make things interesting moving forward. While I really wanted DP to win.. Gunther will now be going into Rumble season as champ.. and for the love of God.. don't let Cena win it. I was thinking Punk or The Rock.. but I've seen ALOT of people talking about Cena and it being his last year. Will he beat the record? Hm..

-Women's United States Championship Match: Michin vs. Chelsea Green

I've been SO conflicted with this match. I love both Michin and Chelsea Green.. both women have done wonderful things, and honestly.. both deserve it. The match was okay overall, nothing majorly great.. but it was enjoyable. In the end, we saw Chelsea Green become the 1st ever Women's United States Champ! How freakin cool! Very much deserved, after all she has done since coming back to the WWE. Who will be the 1st to challenge Chelsea moving forward? And for the love of God.. someone give Nick a drink after this. 

-Undisputed WWE Championship Match: Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens

Oh my God. This match was wonderful and down right a slug fest. These two put on one hell of a show.. and the ending really took me by surprise overall. Towards the end, we saw not only one.. but two refs get taken out. Kevin was SET to win but when things didn't go his way.. things turned even uglier. A chair got involved but it wasn't KO that used it... it was Cody! WHAT.. and just like that.. he retained his title. But that wasn't all.. after everything was said and done Kevin (off air) attacked Cody and gave him a pile driver. Of course this led to Cody being taken out on a stretcher. the whole dramatics. Video also had shown Triple H and KO getting into it at the front of the stage. Things got heated and there was pushing of each other. I wish all of that could have been on TV.. but I can understand to an extent. This brings to the Rumble... Will there be a rematch? Will Randy return? Will KO ever win the title??

Overall: 9.1/10

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

UP NEXT: WWE MONDAY NIGHT RAW

-How will the Wyatt Sicks respond to their loss?
-Will Drew go after Jey once again? or Punk?
-Will Liv still be against Rhea? Or a new challenger?

*I'm 90% sure that this will be a double taping.. so be clear of spoilers!

until next time

xoxo,

WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

It's the Smackdown after Summer Slam.. and boy do we have a rundown for you. I don't know all what I expected from this, but it was a ride.. let me tell you.  **ALSO.. MAJOR THANK YOU to my 1,000 followers on Twitter! I made a post talking about how I really wanted to get 1k before the end of the month and y'all SHOWED OUT in a big way! It's so nice to have everyone, and I hope we can have a blast together!  Let's get into it! -Kicking off Smackdown: John Cena I really enjoyed this overall, but what I didn't like... was Logan Paul coming out. This wasn't on my "I want this match" list.. but it is what it is, I guess. It looks like we are getting the two at Clash in Paris later on in the month. We did see Drew McIntyre and Cody come into play, and the fact we are also getting a tag match later in the night.  -Motor City Machine Guns vs. JC Mateo and Talla Tonga Not happy. Solo made it clear that MFT was coming after the tag titles, which... we know ...

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...

WWE Evolution 2 Rundown/Blog

Okay, I didn't expect this PLE to go this hard.. but here we are. I was SHOCKED out of my mind with this. The build up might have not been good, but the show... they did that shit.  -Kicking Off:  Becky Lynch vs. Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria This was a whole lot better than I thought it was going to turn out. While I did want to see Bayley pull off a win, I did have to remember that Summer Slam is just under 3 weeks away. All three women did so damn good, but it was Becky that retained. So does this mean we could infact see Bayley and Becky once again face off at SS next month? Because that would be the best place for Bayley to win. -Jacy Jayne vs. Jordynne Grace I haven't been very familiar with Jacy Jayne, but I liked her! She is pretty good overall. There were some issues here and there within the match but they did their best to recover. However.. as expected we saw Blake Monroe turn on Jordynne Grace to cost her the match by hitting her with the title. It seems we are getting...
