WWE Monday Night Raw Rundown/Review

It just dawned on me that I never did my Smackdown Rundown... and I am so upset. Let's just say it was a busy and full weekend for me. Regardless, this week for wrestling is going to be HUGE.. so bare with me, as it will be ALOT! I think I will have a blog every single day from Saturday-Tuesday... I might even have two in one day. Saturday is TWO PPVs.. in Wrestlepalooza and AEW All Out.... I WILL be watching AEW first and LIVE so you can expect the tweets. I am unsure about watching Wrestlepalooza in real time due to AEW but I will be tweeting as best as possible when I do watch it. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it! -Kicking off: John Cena We had a pretty dang good promo with Cena and talking about Brock... A good bit of this confused me.. seeing that Brock has only been on Smackdown and not Raw leading up to their match on Saturday. I wish there was a little more. With this.. this makes me believe the match itself isn't going to end clean and will m...

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown (Feb 17th)

 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

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

UP NEXT: Wednesday Night Dynamite

-Toni Storm is your NEW Women's Champ! For the 4th time!
-Buddy Matthews hurt himself? DAMMIT
-I love you Jon Moxley.. but please give up the damn title!

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 ...

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...

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...
