I've taken some time off due to personal reasons, and of course I wake up not feeling well. Isn't that lovely? Regardless, the show must go on! We are almost ONE week away from the Elimination Chamber and things sure are heating up! This is the LAST PLE until Wrestlemania and from what I am hearing this one is going to change the game all together. We've got a lot to talk about.. so let's get into it!
-Sami Zayn kicks off Monday Night Raw
It's been going back and forth with Sami and KO since everything went down. Sami isn't cleared to wrestle but both men are still down for a fight. Things got a little heated between Adam Pearce and Sami Zayn but things were clear.. There WILL be a fight at EC next week. One thing led to another.. and the match has been made. It will be Sami vs KO in an unsanctioned match! I have a feeling this will be one of the best to come from a package piledriver. However, here is my prediction. I fully believe that we will see Randy come back and cost KO the match. This will result in a match between Randy and Kevin at Mania.
-AJ Styles vs. Dominik Mysterio
This match (if I remember correctly) stemmed from last week. The match itself was okay, but it would be a match without a little help from The Judgement Day. However it just wasn't enough for AJ Styles.. he did pick up the win! This is where things get a little crazy.. Bron Breaker was there and ready to strike.. when Styles figured out he was there. He was able to move out of the way, and Dom took a nasty spear. It looks like we will be getting AJ Styles and Bron Breaker sooner than later. Could we see AJ Styles hold gold by Mania??
-Women's Intercontinental Title No. 1 Contender's Match: Dakota Kai vs. Ivy Nile
Not thrilled. I love both women, and they are good.. don't' get me wrong. I just feel with both women they aren't given what they deserve in the first place.. at the right time. You aren't going to tell me that after Lyra wins.. and then you run it back to the finals once again for Dakota to get her moment. Let me guess.. she will lose once again and then run it back at Mania for her big win?? Regardless, Ivy did take the loss o on this one.. and it was Dakota that will get her chance at the title once again.
-Jey Uso and Gunther Brawl
I actually loved this, it added so much to it all. Gunther is hilarious and given his character.. anything that he does that is "un serious" is ALWAYS funny to me. Regardless, this match is going to be very much intense. With over 2 months away, there is so much at stake. Could we see Jey pick up another SHOCKING win? In the end we did see Jey come out and a brawl was on! This overall feud has been very interesting and I am more than excited to see this match turn out.
-Penta vs. Pete Dunne
I loved this match. Both men are very intense.. but I can't wait for an actual story line with Penta, you know? During this match, they did keep up with the past "story" with Kaiser. I do feel the story itself it more with Pete and Kaiser than with Penta.. but we will see. With Pete's partner making his come back soon, could we see Kaiser and Penta tag together? Hmmm.. makes you think right? Or.. or maybe the rumor that AEW is letting Rey out of his contract earlier than expected is more true than we think... Who knows? Regardless, the end was Penta picking up the win. But where does this go moving forward? Triple threat?
-Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match: Roxanne Perez vs. Raquel Rodriguez
I love this new era and all but this match was too predictable. Bianca and Naomi are out for blood when they believe that Liv and Raquel attacked Jade. I still think this is a swerve and it was actually Bianca/Naomi but we will see... It was good to be Roxanne on the main roster as well! The match itself was okay.. but you knew it was over when Bianca and Naomi made themselves known. They took out Liv.. and Raquel lost due to the distraction. Tag match next? Where Jade cost Bianca and Naomi?? We will for sure find out next week...
-New Day Promo
As much as I don't like to admit it... Heel New Day is where it's at! This promo was pretty damn good, and it gave a lot to progress the situation. Last week after the match (off air) they attacked Rey Mystero.. and they had no problem talking about it. Towards the end.. Dragon Lee, Cruz Del Toro and Joaquin Wilde interrupted and it was on. Everyone went all in and a brawl was on the way. Overall.. I thought this was pretty good.
-Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match: Seth Rollins vs. Finn Bálor
I fully expected this to be a flop.. but no. I was HOOKED on this match from the start. I actually enjoyed this very much and I was pretty impressed overall. Finn and Seth work so damn well together and the two went all in on this match. In the end.. It was Seth that took the win, but what does this mean for Finn? Finn seems to be on one hell of a losing streak.. Hmm.. is this really the end for The Judgement Day? The only one that seems to win is Liv? And what is this about "no new members" situation? Hmm..
With all things set for the Chamber matches.. things are getting tense!
Overall: 8.7/10
