WWE Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review

I'm a little late, but here we go. We've got a lot to talk about.. so let's get into it! -Kicking off: Cody Rhodes We didn't get very much but was told by Nick Aldis that we are getting a No 1 Contenders match in which we will see Jacob Fatu vs Drew McIntyre. This is very interesting see that we didn't think Jacob was cleared. Cody did address his loss to Seth.. however now has his eyes set on the new fued that is brewing. This.. should be interesting to say the least.   -Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss vs. Sol Ruca and Zaria (for the Tag Team Titles) I loved this match! I LOVED seeing Sol Ruca and Zaria on the main roster.. and this match delivered overall. However in the end, it was Alexa and Charlotte picked up the win to retain their titles. If you haven't seen this match, please do.. it was worth it. I can't wait to see not only what Alexa and Charlotte will do next.. but what is next for Sol and Zaria.   -United States Championship Open Challenge: Sami...

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown (April 28th)

We've got one hell of a Monday Night Raw, and we've got a lot to talk about! Let's get into it!

-Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman

I thought this was wonderful! The promo that Seth gave was AMAZING and really gave a glimpse of what is to come within this group and story. Of course, we did have Sami come out to get a little promo with Seth as well.. and it was pretty damn good. I enjoyed it very much! I still fully believe that this was a push into the direction of Sami joining Seth/Bron/Paul shortly down the road. And this will come in the form of turning on Jey Uso.. I think it's going to be one of the best storylines this year to be honest. 

-Rhea vs Roxanne 

Are we finally getting Roxanne on the main roster? I hope so! I enjoyed this match overall, but wish it didn't end in a DQ.. I would have loved to have a clean match between these two. It does however look we will get Rhea NOT going for the title again right now (which is a good thing) and instead feuding within Roxanne and Giulia.. in which who caused the DQ. Iyo did come out as well, and it was announced she would be on NXT tonight to deal with this little issue. After this, who do you think will face Iyo next? Will we get a change of ladies going for the title? Or will we see Rhea right back in the mix after this? Also it is worth noting: Money in the Bank qualifying is coming up QUICK.. AND... Bianca is currently out of action for the time being due to an injury, but she WILL be on Smackdown. 

-Jey Uso/Logan Paul

We saw a small glitch from what I can only believe is The Wyatt Sicks behind Logan Paul walking to the ring. Those who slowed the video down, did show the word "Alexa" ... so is this a preview to what is to come? Is SHE coming? 

We saw Logan Paul come the ring to give a promo, talking about he has done everything besides win the world championship.. and he deserves it. Blah blah blah... Jey Uso does come out as well and the two exchange words. I guess the rumors were right when they said Paul would be the first person Jey feuds with. While it isn't my favorite nor first choice, I think the two would put on one hell of a match. We all know there is NO WAY in hell they would allow Paul to win after everything that Jey has been through to get the title in the first place. 

-War Raiders vs Judgement Day

*It is noted that Liv Morgan will be taking some time off due to filming a movie. However this does kind of rub me the wrong way if true. It has been said it would be revealed next Monday about said film.. this does lead me to believe.. what to do with Raquel and the tag team titles? Where does this lead Alexa and Liv? Just kind of bad timing, but we will see how this unfolds. 

The match itself was okay in my opinion, but once again the match was ended due to interference. We saw Penta get his revenge on JD by costing him the match and throwing him off the top rope. Now it seems we will be getting the two face off next week. Also.. The New Day is getting on my nerves and I can't stand that they have the titles.. 

-Becky Lynch Promo

OMG what a freaking promo. I LOVED this, seriously.. this was one of THE best promos she has ever done and I think this feud is going to be up there with one of the best. Lyra did come out as well and the two exchanged words. It looks like we are getting Becky/Lyra at Backlash after all. The two ended up exchanging words and blows when it was all said and done. 

-Stephanie Vaquer vs Ivy Nile 

This match was better than I thought it was going to be. I expected it to be a full blown squash, but no.. this was actually pretty good overall. In the end, it was Vaquer that picked up the win. I think it's also safe to say that no one should count out Ivy in this.. she can go with the best of them. Looks like we will be seeing Stephanie more and more as time goes on. Main roster move soon??

-Pat McAfee Promo/Gunther Match

Pat gave a promo from on top of the announce table, and he laid it out all for everyone. When all was said and done.. Nick Aldis (covering for Adam Pearce) came out to let Pat know it was official.. At Backlash next week it would be Pat vs Gunther! This... this might be pretty good if they do it right. 

-Sami Answer/Sami vs Bronn Breakker

After multiple backstage segments, with trying to get Sami to come and join the new group.. Sami turned Seth down. Of course, this came with a beat down in the form of a match with Bronn Breakker. This was intense and well worth the watch. The story telling in this is AMAZING and I am fully here for it. Sami stood his ground but Seth and Bronn were too much for him. In the end, it was Seth standing tall over Sami.. so how does this end? Will this end up being a match at Backlash? Will someone come to help Sami? Or will Sami give in and join Seth? 

Overall: 9.4/10

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 ...

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...

WWE Evolution 2 Rundown/Blog

Okay, I didn't expect this PLE to go this hard.. but here we are. I was SHOCKED out of my mind with this. The build up might have not been good, but the show... they did that shit.  -Kicking Off:  Becky Lynch vs. Bayley vs. Lyra Valkyria This was a whole lot better than I thought it was going to turn out. While I did want to see Bayley pull off a win, I did have to remember that Summer Slam is just under 3 weeks away. All three women did so damn good, but it was Becky that retained. So does this mean we could infact see Bayley and Becky once again face off at SS next month? Because that would be the best place for Bayley to win. -Jacy Jayne vs. Jordynne Grace I haven't been very familiar with Jacy Jayne, but I liked her! She is pretty good overall. There were some issues here and there within the match but they did their best to recover. However.. as expected we saw Blake Monroe turn on Jordynne Grace to cost her the match by hitting her with the title. It seems we are getting...
