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 Friday Night Smackdown (Jan 10th) Rundown/Review

**If it hasn't dawned on you.. you'll see once again I am not posting AEW content at the moment. I am still on the edge of just not wanting to watch anymore. While I LOVE AEW, right now.. it's just not my cup of tea. I am going to do my best to actually watch and write about it next week.. as it it a TV special. I've done this before with WWE, and honestly.. burn outs happen. And that's okay..

Last night was Smackdown, and to be honest.. it wasn't blow your mind great. It was just okay.. and from the sounds of it.. I wasn't the only one that felt that way. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

**We are THREE weeks away from The Royal Rumble.. and we are heading full speed into new story lines and matches leading up to it. I am pretty pumped about it to be honest!

The opening of Friday Night Smackdown was pretty wild if you ask me.. but I can understand. Paul Heyman opened the show and talked about Roman winning back the Ulafala. It wasn't long until we saw Cody Rhodes.. in all Cody fashion. But that once again.. didn't last long because out comes KO to start his crap again. It wasn't long until the two started to go at it. Back in the ring.. we saw Heyman surrounded by Fatu and Tonga.. but Jimmy did try and make the save. However.. Fatu was able to over take him. In the end, Cody did come back to make the overall save to drive the two away. WILD..

-Chelsea Green vs. Michin

I was really hoping they didn't do this to both women, but here we are. I thought this was a Saturday Night Main Event match but I was wrong apparently. I would love to see BOTH of these women have a fair match with no one on the outside.. but we can't have that overall. Piper did make it a little hard for it to be fair and after a small match.. Chelsea was able to retain her title. I feel like Michin could win next, but I also wish they wouldn't wear out the matches between the two women. Kind of an over kill if you ask me. 

-Los Garzas vs. Pretty Deadly

This match came after four of the tag teams came to Nick wanting a match. So in Nick fashion, it will be Los Garzas and PD and then MCMG vs A Town Down Under.. an official tournament if you will.. I am assuming this will come to a head at The Royal Rumble? The match itself was short and not very eventful.. and we did see Los Garzas get a little help from their group. With this, they did pick up the win. This was very shocking.. but at the same time I am kind of glad they won. They have so much potential! 

-Shinsuke Nakamura vs. LA Knight 

A little bit of a hot take... LA should have never lost the title. I do like Shinsuke, but this last run has been stale to me. Sure.. the new style looks wonderful and interesting.. but it just isn't it for me. The match was okay for the most part. It did appear that LA had this match won.. but it ended in a DQ when Tonga and Fatu interfered. We should have known this would happen when LA locked the two out of the building. Jimmy and Cody made the save and there you have it.. you're main event. Shocking.

-A-Town Down Under vs. Motor City Machine Guns

I am a sucker for literately anything MCMG.. and in my personal opinion, this match was pretty great. I love the way these two teams work together. The match itself was fast paced and fun overall. I'd say they've had good practice working together since they've had multiple matches together on the LIVE tours within the last month. In the end, it was Motor City Machine Guns that got the win and move on to face Los Garzas next week on Smackdown! So does this mean will we will see MCMG vs DIY once again but this time on the big stage of The Royal Rumble?? Hmm.. could this also mean we see Street Profits get involved to move this match to Wrestlemania??

-Naomi vs. Bianca Belair vs. Bayley vs. Nia Jax

We saw Tiffy come out to celebrate her new championship! I am so pumped for her! However it wasn't long until Nia came out and these two exchanged harsh words. One thing led to another with Bayley Bianca and Naomi coming out. Nick made it official with a No 1 contenders match.. The match itself was pretty good I would say but nothing that would blow me out of the water. In the end, and in a shocking turn of events.. it was Bayley that made the pin on Naomi for the win. And she will face Tiffy for the title next week! 

-Jimmy Uso and Cody Rhodes vs. Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga

This match was pretty good, but very wild for multiple reasons. First of all.. Is Cody apart of the Bloodline now? Because what the hell is happening?? Not only is he helping The Usos/Bloodline.. but there's also the "threat" that Roman is coming after the title? Will this causes overall problems? KO did show up and went at it with Cody... this led Jimmy to fight alone resulting in the pin allowing Fatu and Tonga to get the win. Cody and KO ended up going through a table and the end of the show was the after match.. while officials checked on the two. 

Overall: 8.6/10

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

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...
