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
