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 Monday Night Raw on Netflix (March 3rd) Rundown/Review

Okay, okay.. I am a little late. To be honest.. James had his therapy yesterday and it kicked everyone's butt. Regardless, it's time to talk about Monday Night Raw.. and boy was it something! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it. 

-CM Punk Kicks Off

CM Punk made himself to the ring, and he was pissed. He went off, and in the best way possible. Not only talking crap about John Cena and The Rock.. but now Seth Rollins seeing that he cost him the Chamber match. It was intense and it wasn't long until Seth made himself to the ring. There was no talking, but all fighting. The two fought around the ring, and even into the crowd. There was even a time back stage where they saw each other.. and it was on sight. This turned into a confirmed match next week at MSG in a steel cage. This should be pretty damn good if you ask me. 

-Otis vs. Gunther

 I am so torn about all of this. I love Otis, but I don't like this angle. So are we just giving Gunther people we KNOW will lose up until Mania? Now, don't get me wrong.. each match thus far has really put a fire under them and the match hasn't been really a squash. But we know the ending... After Gunther had won the match we saw Jey Uso come to make the save after a small beat down. However, that just wasn't the end. A-Town Down Under did make themselves known as they attacked as well.. which was a little odd to me. How are they going to tie into all of this? I can imagine that they will be two matches for Jey to pass the time before Mania. 

-Women's Intercontinental Championship: Lyra Valkyria vs. Ivy Nile

Still..it just isn't my cup of tea. However both women are wonderful and this match was pretty good overall. I still feel there needs to be more of a build in the next match moving forward. Can we get an actual story line besides "I lost previously, give me another chance" situation? Regardless, the two women did wonderful and work well together.. but it just wasn't enough for Ivy. Lyra retained her title. 

-Ludwig Kaiser Promo

 We saw Ludwig cut a promo on Penta and of course.. he made himself known as well. The two went back and forth before Penta took out Ludwig to close things out. It seems that there is some unfinished business. With Rey Fenix being released from AEW, could we be seeing a tag team situation? Will Ludwig find someone to tag with besides Gunther?

-World Tag Team Championship: The War Raiders vs. The Creed Brothers

 I actually liked this match, and it really showed that The Creed Brothers could in fact become your new tag team champs sooner than later. They are really good! The match itself was pretty impressive, and I loved how well the two teams worked together. However, it just wasn't good enough to pick up the win.. and The War Raiders retained their titles. Hmm.. this run has been pretty good, and they aren't scared to put their titles on the line. That is for sure something that hasn't been done previously with The Judgement Day. But the question is.. who do you think will be the ones to take the titles away from The War Raiders.

-The Judgment Day/Bron Breakker

 We saw an interview with Jackie and Bron Breakker. However this was interrupted by Finn Balor who didn't hold back. Bron made his way to the ring.. but Finn wasn't alone. We also saw Carlito and Dom.. which were taken out by Bron. Finn and Bron had a moment but Bron was able to chase off Finn.. but not before leveling Carlito to make his statement. So the question is... are we going to see The Judgement Day fighting Bron.. or The Wyatt Sicks??

-Women's World Championship: Rhea Ripley vs. Iyo Sky

What a freakin match. I didn't see this coming by any means... The match itself was AMAZING. I mean I cannot say this enough when I saw that both Rhea and Iyo are both INSANELY good. Both took each other to their limits, but.. we did have Bianca on the sideline for this match. We saw (what should have been a DQ) a little "fight" between Bianca/Rhea.. but that just wasn't the call this time. And in the end.. Rhea was distracted, resulting in Iyo getting the upper hand and winning the title to become the NEW Women's Champ. I won't lie.. I was PISSED. All that time Rhea spent trying to get her title back, and this is how she loses it. I will say.. good on Triple H for giving us the most unpredictable Raws in the last few months. I have a STRONG feeling we will be seeing a triple threat at Mania.. but was this the right call overall?

Overall: 8.9/10

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

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...
