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 (Updates, and MORE)

What a freakin weekend for wrestling, am I right? Because... from Friday-Monday things went from 0-100 REAL QUICK and I loved every single second of it. We FINALLY got the return of the Wyatt Sicks and it was everything we all needed, am I right? Saturday Night Main Event was pretty good as well, we got the return of Cody Rhodes.. so you can imagine things are about to be HUGE coming up. And AEW Double or Nothing RULED the night with wrestling.. it was AMAZING. If you didn't have a good time watching BOTH, then you're doing it wrong my friends. 

Kicking off Monday Night Raw: Seth/Bronson/Bron/Heyman

The new group came to the ring and did their thing. Heyman/Seth put over both Bron/Bronson and it's pretty clear that things are going to be so good with them moving forward. The crowd LOVED it, and of course we got the full push of Seth for MIB.. as his match would main event in a triple threat. 

-Money in the Bank Qualifier: Penta vs. Dragon Lee vs. Chad Gable

This match was pretty damn good overall.. sadly, we did see some VERY scary spots for Chad and Dragon.. but they both recovered in the end. Other than that.. I loved every second of it. Penta was able to pick up the win, and will be moving forward in the MIB on June 7th. I can't wait to see him shine in this match! 

**Backstage we saw Liv Morgan return and has caught Dirty Dom with dirty hands.. in the form of Roxanne. Things might be pretty messy moving forward. 

-Akira Tozawa vs. Rusev

Waste. Just a waste of time and honestly could have been used for something else. I can understand.. like story wise.. to an extent... but come on. In the end, we are getting Sheamus and Rusev for a huge feud and that actually might be pretty good if done right. Both men have worked well together in the past.. this time should be no different.  

-Triple Threat Match for the World Tag Team Championship

I'm just not happy with the Raw tag team division right now. I don't like this "new" New Day, and to be honest, the crowd isn't thrilled either. The match itself was pretty good tho, I will say that.. but story wise.. I just can't get behind all of this. Hopefully moving forward, something a little better will come along. OR... hopeful the Draft will come sooner than later to shake things up a little. I wouldn't mind seeing MCMG on Raw or even Pretty Deadly!

Gunther/Jey Uso

We saw some promo action with these two, and honestly... it ain't it for me. We've seen this saga, and I don't want it. My guess is that Jey WILL NOT be cashed in on at MIB, and during the match on the Raw after... Goldberg will be costing Gunther to set up their match at the next Saturday Night Main Event. That is the ONLY way I see this going.. and to be honest, if Jey loses any time soon.. or before Summer Slam at least, everything that he has worked for will be null. 

-Kairi Sane vs. Liv Morgan

This match was really tricky for me. I love both women, and they are damn good at what they do. HOWEVER.. something just didn't seem to click with me. It was like they didn't work well together, and it was very wonky. Regardless, Roxanne did get involved to "help" Liv.. and while Raquel was pissed... it ended up costing Liv the match, allowing Sane to win. Trouble in Judgement Day? Hmm.. trouble between the Women's Tag Team?

-Lyra Valkyria Promo

LOVED IT! While I wasn't sure with Lyra at first, she is really starting to grow on me in the last few weeks. This feud with Becky has been amazing and really allowing her to grow and be something to not mess with. Not only is she good in ring, but very good and quick on the mic. And it's now been made official! It will be Becky vs Lyra for the IC title at MIB! 

**We got some words between Sami and Kross backstage.. all while Scarlett is on the ladder behind Kross. With only a few spots left... will Kross be one of them??

-Triple Threat (MIB Men's) Seth/Sami/Finn

This was pretty intense overall.. and I will say that I enjoyed it! With a triple threat, you knew it was going to be pretty wild.. and it was no shock when Seth's boys got involved to help out. That didn't stop Jey and Dom either..coming to the aid of Sami and Finn. However, in the end.. Dom went to "help" Finn and it back fired. Seth was able to use the chair to hit a curb stomp.. to get the win. Things just picked up my friends, as Seth will now be in the MIB match. 

Overall: 8.2/10

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

-UP NEXT: The fall out from AEW Double or Nothing

-How will the Men's Tag Team Division react to be targeted by the Wyatt Sicks?
-Who will qualify next for the Women's MIB?
-What is next with Charlotte and Alexa?
-Could we see more MIB matches announced??

until next time

xoxo,

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...

WWE Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown: The Crash Out

 MANNNN.... I ain't even got it to start an intro. Let's just get into it.  -Kicking off Monday Night Raw: John Cena It wasn't long after Cena came out to address the crowd before we saw Punk come out. The two exchanged words, and it wasn't long until the match was made. We are running it back my friends for these two once again, and surprisingly... I am not mad at it. Only thing is.. Cena said he would have to come get it.. At Saudi. THE IRONY HURTS lol. Regardless, this should be pretty dang good. -AJ Styles vs. Chad Gable I enjoyed this match more than I thought I would to be honest.. both men work well together. I was also very impressed with Chad.. seeing that he had one hell of a weekend. I don't know if they will go forward really with a story line but it was good to see AJ win.   -Rhea Ripley vs. Kairi Sane vs. Roxanne Perez vs. Liv Morgan This is where the crash out is starting my friends. I don't know where in the hell this is going. I THINK I know, bu...

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...
