WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown

We are so close to the road to Wrestlemania! We are a little over a month away from the Royal Rumble and things are getting HOT! Our next big WWE program will be Monday Night Raw: One Year on Netflix and things could change in a big way. Let's not forget outside of that.. we do have an AEW PPV in a few weeks as well. We have a lot to talk about from Raw, so let's get into it! Kicking off: Gunther After his win over Cena in his final match.. things were up to 11 with this opening. I don't give a damn what anyone says.. this was amazing. You can hate Gunther all you like (or even Triple H) but that doesn't change that he is now one of the best in the business. I love this for him. I love the "I don't give a shit" attitude.. the arrogant vibe, and the shit eating smile. It's perfect and I can't wait to see where go with this next. I did see them teasing AJ Styles... which would be pretty damn good as well.  The Usos vs. New Day I don't like it. We...

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

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

UP NEXT: WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix

-How will Rhea address Raw after winning her title back?
-Will we see any returns from Becky or Alexia??
-Will we FINALLY see The Wyatt Sicks?
-Are we going to see Liv and the after math of her loss?
-Will we see CM Punk and Seth go at it once again?

Things are for sure heating up with only THREE weeks to go until The Royal Rumble!

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 Rundown/Review

What a time, everyone. I have been going going going for the last week or so.. so much that I haven't blogged. I hate when I have to skip weeks, but to be honest... sometimes it is like that. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking off Raw: Rhea Ripley We love Mami.. and she is MAD. Rhea addresses the attack of Asuka from last week.. which of course resulted in Iyo to come out as well. It wasn't long until Asuka and Kairi made themselves known and a brawl was set. This time.. it was Iyo that was misted by Asuka. My guess is that we are going to see some tag team action much sooner than later. I enjoyed this very much overall.. and am pretty happy that we are having Rhea and Iyo set away from the title action. But the question is.. when it is all set and done, are we going to see Rhea or Iyo turn on one another in a shocking turn of events? -Intercontinental Championship: Dominik Mysterio vs. Rusev I won't lie.. I was a little shocked about this...

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...
