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...

Raw After Mania Rundown/Review (April 21st)

What a freakin Monday Night Raw! We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

-John Cena KICKS OFF 

I don't know exactly what I expected, but it sure wasn't a full promo. I thought he was going to pull some bullshit along the way, but I was wrong. He came out and talked for a little while...We heard the crowd go back and forth with him, and we even heard the crowd chant "We Are Sorry"... after Cena had said something in the sense that everyone wasn't sorry for how they treated him. This was too funny... In a shocking turn of events, we saw Randy Orton come out of no where.. and attack him. It looks like we are getting Cena vs Orton at Backlash in about 3 weeks. 

-Valkyria and Lynch vs. Rodriguez and Morgan for the Women's Tag Team Championships  

I wasn't expecting this match so soon, but it kind of makes sense now. The match itself was pretty good, and it was something that I did enjoy. However what I didn't expect was Liv and Raquel to WIN BACK the titles! This took me by complete surprise! In the end, we saw Becky completely turn on Lyra and attack her multiple times. Are we seeing a major feud brewing?? Becky vs Lyra for the IC title? 

-New Day and a BIG return

The New Day came out to celebrate, but was interrupted by Alpha Academy. Also... can we just all agree that Woods saying "Thank God for The New Day" makes me want to crash out for some reason... Anyway, apparently there was suppose to be a match on the fly... but the lights went out and shit hit the fan real quick. Rusev made his return and attacked everyone in sight. This should be pretty interesting moving forward. I wasn't exactly surprised, but didn't know it was going to be this soon. 

-Iyo Sky vs. Stephanie Vaquer

This match was freaking AMAZING from start to finish. I loved the intro for it, and the surprise of Stephanie herself was great. Sadly, we didn't get a full finish.. and that was because of Roxanne and Giulia made the attack on Steph and Iyo. Rhea did come in for the save.. and made sure that Iyo knew she was still coming for that title. 

-Jey Uso Celebration

Okay, I have mixed feelings about this. I loved the reaction from everyone and the hype was wonderful. You could tell that Jey was over the moon and in his feelings a bit.. but it was wonderful over all. I do think they went a little over board with the stalling, but I can understand. However.. we also got Sami coming out. This was TENSE! We ended up getting Jimmy coming out as well.. but overall the feeling was something bad was going to happen. Sami is turning once again and it's going to be heart breaking. If you go back and watch, he was LOOKING at that title. He will turn and it will be a war. 

-Dominik Mysterio vs. Penta

The match itself was very good, and I loved that for both Penta and Dom.. however I just feel this might be over done for the waiting just as it was for the New Day turn. We saw a returning JD to help Dom pick up the win and the celebration was on. You could tell the entire time that Finn was on the edge and upset. He isn't happy at all, and you can FEEL the turn coming... but when? I do feel that last night would be PERFECT.. but I can see wanting to wait until everyone was involved. Having JD back kind of fully sets it in motion. 

Seth Rollins/Paul Heyman

This was INSANE and I loved every single moment of it. Paul and Seth head to the ring and before things can really get started.. CM Punk comes out to attack. There was a small beat down and in the end.. Seth stood tall. Paul let's everyone know there is a NEW big star in WWE.. and the Roman's music hits and the fight is on. I fully didn't expect Roman to show up last night, so I was thrilled! Roman took out Seth and Paul for a moment.. and then out of NO WHERE Roman was speared. By who?? BRON FREAKIN BREAKKER! I DID NOT SEE THIS COMING! BRON IS A HEYMAN GUY! The show ended with the three in the middle of the ring.. standing tall. 

WHAT... Business is starting to heat up folks. 

Overall: 9.4/10

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

-Alister Black makes his RETURN on Smackdown
-Will we see Alexa Bliss or The Wyatt Sicks?
-Will Liv/Raquel retain their titles after defending them on NXT?
-Who else could return?
-Will we see NEW Tag Team Champs between DIY/Street Profits/MCMG??

This Smackdown is going to be HUGE! Let's freakin GO!

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...
