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 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

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...
