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 Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/Review (AND MORE)....

 Oh my friends... how my heart hurts for those that were released last night. This seems to be a normal around right after Mania, but after this list.. Smackdown just was a little lack luster. While there was ALOT of NXT names include the shocking release of Cora Jade.. you also saw on the main roster being released Dakota Kai, Braun Strowman, Shayna Baszler, and Katana Chance/Kayden Carter. I have full confidence that everyone will be successful in their work moving forward. 

On to Smackdown... if I skipped something, you'll have to excuse me... But let's get into it! Also, it's nice to note that in ONE WEEK there will be Backlash! So that should be interesting. 

-Kicking off Smackdown: Damian Priest vs LA Knight

We saw some backstage fighting with Damian and Solo/Jacob Fatu.. which led to LA Knight coming out to the ring to give a little promo about last week and the match that went crazy. Out comes DP to speak his mind, and it wasn't long until the two went at it. It wasn't very hard to find out where this was going due to the rumors of a fatal 4 way at Backlash... so it wasn't shocking when Solo went in for the DQ. Looks like those rumors were right. 

-Pretty Deadly vs. Fraxiom

I'm not going to lie, I am SO glad Fraxiom is on Smackdown right now! This will lead to many of wonderful matches within the tag division, I feel. I loved this fully... all men work wonderful together and it's nice to see some fresh faces and situations. In the end, we saw Fraxiom pick up the win. So now the question is... who is next for the new main roster tag team? I'd LOVE to see them face MCMG and DIY. 

-The Miz vs Alister Black

I fully went into this thinking it was going to be a squash match, and while it technically could have been.. it was overall pretty fun. These two do work well together, and it has be wondering how long this feud will last. Alister Black picked up the win, but now it seems Melo (The Miz's partner) will have his go next week. 

-Zelina Vega vs Piper Niven

I AM LOVING Chelsea Green and this gimmick right now. She is the best to be honest... However I just wasn't a huge fan of the match. The story.. is wonderful, it's there tho. While we did see Vega pick up the win, Piper hit Chelsea on accident. Is this the next story? A break up within this group? Hmm.. it will be interesting to say the least. 

-Rey Fenix vs. Santos Escobar

Looks like things are finally breaking down with Santos and Rey, with Santos slowing losing everything. I loved this match to be honest. It was very good, and very well put together. I wouldn't mind seeing them work together again down the road if not sooner. But in the end, we did see Rey Fenix pick up the win. 

**We also did see Randy Orton do a small promo about John Cena, leading up to their match next Saturday. 

-Jade/Tiffy vs Nia/Naomi 

I enjoyed this match for the most part, but there is just so much going on, story wise.. Jade and Naomi feud still? Tiffy vs Nia STILL? But is Jade going for the title? Naomi for the title? Nia for the title?? Can we please NOT do fatal four way? If not.. then I can see the vision for the Money in the Bank line up. While the match was pretty good, I still feel it fell just a little short.. but... it was the main event, so that was nice to see. In the end, it was Jade and Tiffy that picked up the win. 

Overall: 8.4/10

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

UP NEXT: Monday Night Raw

-Will we see another glitch from The Wyatt Sicks
-Who will face Iyo next?
-Will Bayley return to face Becky or cost her at Backlash??

I'd LOVE to introduce everyone to Mouthing Off with Mike Wrestling Podcast! If you are a fan of wrestling, then you should make sure you give him a listen and a follow! All of his social media information is listed as @mown_podcast and I'll be sure to tag him in this Twitter post as well! After talking with Mike we did a little interview: Let's dive in!

 *How long have you been watching wrestling?

Mike:  I’ve been watching wrestling for as long as I can remember. I used to watch it with my grandma when she would babysit me at the age of 5 So I’d say 23 years but my earliest recollection of wrestling would be from 2005- to now! 

*With Wrestlemania behind us, what was your favorite and least favorite part of both nights? 

Mike: My favorite part of Wrestlemania hands down was getting to experience it live in Vegas with the crowd. To feel that energy and to hear the crowd going crazy it’s an unmatched experience. My favorite part was watching Jey Uso become the world champion for the first time in his career. My least favorite moment was Travis Scott getting involved in the main event and adding absolutely nothing to the Cody Rhodes/ John Cena rivalry.

*Who is your favorite WWE super star?
 3. With Wrestlemania behind us, what was your favorite and least favorite part of both nights? 4. Who is your favorite WWE super star?

Mike: My favorite WWW Superstar right now would be Cody Rhodes, I think Cody embodies what it means to be a “professional” in the wrestling industry. I also feel he can connect with just about any audience. If we’re talking all time favorite WWE Superstar of the past or present that would be Jeff Hardy!

 

Mike, thank you for all your content and having the time to answer some questions! Don't forget to follow Mike on all his online content! You won't be disappointed!

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...
