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 Backlash Rundown/Review (May 10th)

I took a little break this week from blogging, and now that Backlash is over... it's time to get back to work. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!

-Kicking off Backlash: Fatal 4 Way for the US Title

I enjoyed this for the most part, and everything that I thought was going to happen...didn't. However, that didn't stop it from being very good overall. Sadly, this was my only window to shower and get ready for bed.. so I did miss some here and there. I honestly can't wait for Drew and Damian to feud some more (if they do) because they work so well together. Hopefully after that very iffy table situation, Drew is all good. In the end, it was Jeff Cobb that made himself known to help out Jacob to retain the title. Hmm.. Jacob didn't look happy either. Are we finally seeing the straw that broke it all? Friday will for sure be interesting moving forward.

-Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch

I had an idea of what this match was going to be, and it for sure wasn't this. This match was freaking AMAZING and these two torn the house down with this overall. If you haven't watched this match.. you should 110%.. because I was blown away. The ending tho... I wasn't expecting Lyra to pull off a full blown upset and retain her title. It looks like the importance of this title just increased. While I wasn't sure at first, this whole situation is going to be HUGE.. and in the end, Becky will be IC champ.

-Dominik Mysterio vs. Penta

I was pretty excited for this match overall.. and it delivered. Dom did wonderful and I have loved seeing his progress over time. Dude is going to be a huge baby face. We did see the Judgement Day come out to seemingly help Dom.. but there was some weirdness coming from Finn. Did anyone else catch that? However there was no change of title, and there was no turn.. Dom picked up the win and left with Judgement Day to end it. The turn is COMING and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw it on the fall out on Monday Night Raw. 

-Gunther vs. Pat McAfee

This was pretty good. Like, much better than I thought it would be. Pat gave it his all... and lasted A LOT longer than I thought he would. We did see Michael Cole get involved but that was short lived.. I swear I thought we were going to see a MASSIVE upset but in the end.. Gunther made Pat pass out. While the match wasn't 5 star.. it was very good overall. 

-John Cena vs. Randy Orton

What the hell was even this? Overall the match was good. Just good. The ending... holy crap. I was pretty shocked overall.. the ending was very bleak and not what I really expected. I guess this once again goes back to "Cena ruining wrestling"... We saw him trying to cheat.. not once, but multiple times.. the ref going down multiple times was kind of getting old, and of course the random "management" coming out to try to get control of it all. ANDDDD we got Nick being RKO'd for the what.. 3rd time? This is for sure going to be something. And Cena retained. I love Cena and all.. but this whole story line has been iffy. Give me a little something more. Oh.. and the random ass R Truth segment. And after the whole post show.. we are FOR SURE getting Truth vs Cena at Saturday Night Main Event in 2 weeks. 

Overall: 7.3/10

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

-What will become of Judgement Day after Backlash? Finn didn't look pleased.
-Rhea and Iyo tag match, can they work together?
-WWE Draft NEWS?
-MIB qualifying matches?
-Do you think we will see any glitches?
-Will Jey respond after being attacked by Logan Paul?
-How will Becky react after LOSING to Lyra?

We are now 2 weeks away from Main Event... what will the remaining 2 matches be? And 2 weeks after that... we will have Money in the Bank. Things are heating up leading into the summer... lighting up the way for some MAJOR matches at the 1st ever 2 NIGHT Summer Slam. 

until next time

xoxo,
Chels

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...
