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...

Wrestlemania Night 1 (April 19th) Rundown/Review

Okay, okay... I didn't do a full rundown of Smackdown on Friday but hear me out... it's been a wild time let me tell you. The only thing I'll talk about real quick with Smackdown.. is that I am THRILLED about Hayes winning the battle royal.. that was amazing, and much needed for him. Also.. Street Profits vs DIY vs MCMG NEXT Friday after Mania is bullshit, and everyone knows it. We've got a hell of a night 1 to talk about.. so let's get into it!

-Anyone else LOVING the Mania set? Because YESSSSS! I loved the whole opening presentation!

-Jey Uso vs Gunther for the World Championship

This match was pretty good. We saw a little bit of everything to be honest.. and the story telling leading up was wonderful in my opinion. Gunther wanted to take the easy way out.. did his best to run away, to cheat.. but it just wasn't enough. In the end, Jey Uso made Gunther TAP OUT and now we have a NEW champ! When I tell you I was SCREAMING as the bell rang! This man DESERVED IT! I can't wait to see where this will go next, and who will be the next to challenge Jey coming out of Mania. 

-World Tag Team Championship: The War Raiders vs. The New Day

Wasn't really thrilled with this whole match, now don't get me wrong.. I get the story line and everything I just didn't like it personally. This is the first time the New Day has titles as being heel, so I can see this being interesting moving forward. Who will be the first to challenge? Could we see Theory and Waller getting a push?

-Jade Cargill vs. Naomi

 I have mixed feelings about this match overall.. but I will say I did love the story and presentation. Can we please talk about Naomi's new music and her outfit?? OH MY GOD! Jade looked AMAZING as well, and overall.. I do believe Jade winning was needed. Could this move forward? Oh yes.. I could see Naomi getting involved in the triple threat with Bianca... but only time will tell.

 

-United States Championship: LA Knight vs. Jacob Fatu

This match did NOT go the way I thought it was going to go.. but I am more than okay with it. Fatu's entrance was amazing and the mask just hit. I was fully prepared for Solo to cost Jacob as well, but we did not see that.. however, I do see the vision. The match overall was good and I enjoyed it very much. What I didn't expect was Jacob Fatu to win his FIRST title in WWE.. I am so proud of him and I just know this run is going to be HUGE for him. I do however see Solo turning on Fatu in the very near future.

-Rey Fenix vs. El Grande Americano

I am SO proud of both Chad and Rey for this.. it was a good match, but to be honest.. it wasn't over the top great. Both men deserved to have their moment.. and even tho "el grande americano" cheated to win.. the match seemed to be pretty fun.. all while adding some involvement from AAA wrestlers. It will be interesting to see where this will go from here on out.

-WWE Women's Championship: Tiffany Stratton vs. Charlotte Flair

 Okay... so I fully expected for this to be a upset. First of all, can we PLEASE talk about both ladies entrance?? WOAH! Tiffy ROCKED the Barbie look and entrance, all while Charlotte rocked the "Queen" entrance she deserves. The match itself was pretty damn good in my opinion, but did have a couple of moments of "oh my" towards the end. However in a shocking turn of events, Tiffy retained her title. This took me for a full ass loop, but I am more than happy about it! Will this move forward? Or will we see the two face off again? Tiffy did beat Char clean...

-Triple Threat Match: CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins

OKAY... First of all Seth Rollin's entrance was ICONIC.. along with Punk's as well. This match had it all.. it was intense, fun, and pretty brutal for the three. There was some team up teases along the way.. and it kept going making you wonder what would happen next. As expected, Paul Heyman did get involved. Paul turned on Punk.. seemingly going back to Roman. While Roman was able to beat Punk and Seth down.. Paul did the UNTHINKABLE and turned on Roman fully! Seth soaked it in, and ended up beating down Roman with a chair. Seth wins, and walks OUT of Mania with Paul Heyman. THIS IS HUGE!

Does this mean we will see Seth on Night 2? Hmm... Makes you think....

Overall: 8.9/10

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prediction for Night 2
-Rhea will pick up the win
-Rusev will be facing Randy
-Wyatt Sicks RETURN
-Dom wins
-Liv/Raquel RETAIN
-Becky RETURNS
-Cena WINS

I feel I missed some but oh well.. I can't wait for tonight! I'll be LIVE tweeting at 6pm CST!

until next time

xoxo,
Chels

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...
