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 (April 14th) Rundown/Review

It's THE final Raw before Mania, and we've got ALOT to unpack. Let's get into it!

-Gunther kicks off Raw

This whole match makes me feel some kind of way, and to be honest.. I can't tell who is going to win. I REALLY want Jey to pick up the win and become champ... however, I just have this feeling deep within that Gunther will retain, or Jey will end up getting screwed over some how. The build up has been a little slow, but as of right now it's on FIRE. Only time will tell, and it's about to come to a head. 

-Bayley vs. Liv Morgan 

I thought this match was great overall! It did add to the intensity of the match coming at Mania, and made Bayley and Lyra look good as a tag team. Could we see a complete turn around on Sunday? Hmm.. We also saw Bayley pick up the win over Morgan.. which did set it up for Liv/Raquel to retain. While I have seen the reports that the Wyatt Sicks/Alexa will not be reintroduced until AFTER Mania, I have this feeling we could in fact see something from the group within this match. Am I 110% sure, NO... but I am just going based off of personal thoughts. 

-Rey Mysterio vs. Julius Creed

This whole story line has been so good, and fun. I think going into Mania, this whole story will be interesting and fun as time goes on. In the end, we did see Rey pick up the win over Julius.. and now we will see how Mania goes for the rest. 

-AJ Styles vs. Karrion Kross

While I wasn't at first, this whole situation with Karrion has been insane. Is there more than just the wrestling, YES.. and I am doing my best to figure it all out. I fully believe that we will see more into this as AJ faces Logan Paul at Mania. The story build being all Karrion is WILD.. but I love it. The man knows his story telling. But to be honest.. I could listen to that man read a phone book and enjoy it. LOL!In a strange turn of events, Karrion lost to AJ.. but it seems to be on purpose. Hmm.. 

-Jey Uso's Warning to Gunther

The hate for this man is so forced it's INSANE! Jey is wonderful and has shown time and time again that he can in fact to this on his own. He is champ material for sure. Jey did come out and have a wonderful time with the crowd, and gave a little promo about Saturday. After that.. he had more fun with the crowd. I don't know why that is so "lame" to some people. It's all in good fun and I enjoyed it overall. I think Saturday's match will be one for the books. 

-Penta vs. Finn Bálor

This was another filler match overall. You have four people going for the IC title, and you have to protect them this close to the match. It did end in a DQ after Bron came out to get involved. I can't predict this one once again. I have this feeling that Finn will in fact will this.. but at a cost. Does this fully set up the Wyatt Sicks feud? Will Finn win, but betray Dom? Finn has lost ALOT within the last year... and honestly it would be pushing it. But does Dom win?? I did have the prediction that Liv is actually working with Finn... which would kick Dom out. Thus.. starting the Wyatt Sicks feud. Think about it.. Finn vs Uncle Howdy / Alexa and Nikki vs Liv and Raquel / JD and Carlito vs Joe and Dex  BUT.. that does leave out Rowan... unless they bring in someone else within the Judgement Day. This also sets up Dom vs Finn for the IC title down the road. Don't come for me, I am simply fantasy booking. 

-Roman Reigns vs. CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins PROMO

See... my head is in multiple places here. The promo was all but the same as last go... INSTEAD we got a little more insight with Seth. The turn is coming, and the truth is set up. Roman fully doesn't trust Paul anymore and that was made very clear. I am LOVING the set ups for this because it made you feel like you just can't predict it. I stand by my thoughts... Seth will be winning, and Paul will be leaving with him in a crazy turn of events. I can't see it going anywhere else to be honest. This one will FOR SURE be a match to remember. 

I said I would do it on this one.. but I will wait until Friday Night Smackdown to give my full Mania predictions. I have a feeling there will be ONE more match in the form of Randy Orton to be announced. 

I can't wait!

Overall: 8.4/10

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

-Will we have NEW tag team champs?
-Can Tiffy get one up on Char after multiple attacks?
-Will Randy get his Mania match?
-Will Solo cost Jacob at Mania?
-What will Cena have to say before the big match on Sunday?

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...
