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 Friday Night Smackdown Rundown/MIB Predictions

We had one heck of a Smackdown, leading up to TONIGHT'S Money in the Bank.. so let's get into it!

-Kicking off Smackdown

I really enjoyed this angle of seeing all the Superstars arriving.. But it wasn't too long until we saw Seth Rollins and his new group come to the ring. I do feel that it would be too obvious for Seth to win it, but we will see. Not long into the promo, Solo, Jacob, and JC arrived to exchange words. This was pretty good I would say, and does keep the story going into not only the MIB but within the Bloodline saga. After Seth's group left, Jimmy attacked JC.. which of course led to a match.

-Jimmy Uso vs. JC Mateo

The match itself was pretty good, but still a little iffy on where this is all going overall. While the match did have a couple of fun spots, it didn't exactly blow me away. In the end... it seemingly showed that Fatu accidentally cost JC the match.. allowing Jimmy to pick up the win.  

-Zelina Vega vs. Piper Niven

I am a little conflicted about this. I love Zelina.. and Piper is wonderful. However.. this whole situation is driving me insane. It's the SAME match over and over again. Now.. I do understand that Chelsea got hurt and they are kind of having to stall, but omg. Overall, the match was okay. In the end, there was some others involved to help Piper.. but it just wasn't enough. Vega picked up the win. Giulia appeared, and attacked Vega at the end.. pretty much announcing that she will in fact be the next opponent for the Women's US Championship. 

-LA Knight vs. Aleister Black

I had a feeling about this match, but seriously.. who is going to eat the pin going INTO MIB tonight? It was tense, for sure.. and I actually enjoyed it. Both men looked wonderful overall as well. But it was Seth Rollins that attacked LA Knight resulting in a DQ. Regardless, this whole match for MIB is for sure going to be insane. I honestly can't predict who will win.

-Vaquer, Ripley and Bliss and vs. Perez, Giulia and Naomi

I really enjoyed this match! All women worked so well together, and going into MIB.. I can tell it's going to be good. What really stood out for me was Naomi leaving at the end of the match.. all but basically screwing over Roxanne.. not allowing her to tag, resulting in her pin. I'll get to my predictions in just a little bit tho. 

-Penta and Andrade vs. The Creed Brothers

This match was so fun to be honest, and I really wasn't thrilled about this match. Boy, was I wrong! Once again, this led to more interesting thoughts to what was to come tonight in the men's match. STILL not happy about Chad Gable... but it isn't the end of the world. In the end, Penta and Andrade got the win. But it wasn't over.. we (once again) saw Seth Rollins and his crew come to the ring and raise hell. 

-Cena/Paul and Cody/Jey

This whole segment was WILD from the start. While words were exchanged, it ended it madness. Cena and Paul ended with the titles being held above their heads.. so what is the ending to all of this? Are we going to see Cena and Paul come out victorious? Or will there be any help along the way?

Overall: 7.4/10

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

UP NEXT: WWE Money in the Bank

Predictions:

-Lyra vs Becky: Becky
-John Cena and Logan Paul vs Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso: Cody and Jey
-Women's MIB: Naomi
-Men's MIB: LA Knight

Do we think there will be any surprises? 
Will we see The Wyatt Sicks?
Will there be a cash in?

I'll be LIVE tweeting as best as possible, so be sure to join in!

xoxo,

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...
