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 Monday Night Raw on Netflix Rundown

What a wild week..... IYKYK.... 

Anyway.. apparently....there is still Friday Night Smackdown and Night of Champs going on, so... we've got a lot to unpack. If you want to know my full opinion on the whole SHITuation.. then just go to my Twitter. We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it.

-Kicking off Raw: Seth Rollins and Fam

Is anyone else kind of getting the ick for Seth and his new group? I am like.. almost there. Hopefully it will change, but something is just off to me. I feel the build was wonderful, but since then.. it's kind of dragged. I see the vision, I really do.. it's just odd to me. LA Knight has been written off for the time being, as expected.. but for how long? Will he return on Raw? Seth Rollins has been talking about cashing in.. and I think everyone has all but figured it out. Cody will win at Night of Champs.. BEAT John Cena...and then Seth will cash in. BUT.. the question is, does Seth win? Or will Roman cost him the big one, as Seth did many of years ago? This should be good. Now... back to Penta and Bron.

-Penta vs. Bron Breakker

I'm getting a little tired of this fued to be honest. Maybe it hasn't been that long, it just seems like it. I liked the match overall, and some of the spots there were pretty wild. However, I think we know where this is going. There is TWO others besides Seth.. and only one of Penta. Rey has been MIA lately as well over on Smackdown. Is this going where I think it is? Are we going to see The Lucha Brothers reunite and take down Bronson and Bron? We'd love to see it. However, in the end of the match.. it was Bron that picked up the win.

-Goldberg/Michael Cole

I hate this. I hate it with such passion it should be a crime. I would have a problem with it even if it was Stone Cold Steve Austin... how in the world do you have someone come in... and just go straight in front of the line for a title shot. Not only that.. he hasn't had the best record either when it comes to hurting people for real. I don't want to see Goldberg get hurt.. OR Gunther. And if we have Gunther lose this title to this man, oh.. my... God... that WILL in fact be THE crash out of the century. I guess we will find out at Saturday Night Main Event. 

-Queen of the Ring Semifinal: Jade Cargill vs. Roxanne Perez

The match itself was good, nothing amazing.. both women seemingly worked well together. But I feel this was a given. Roxanne for sure as a story line with Raquel and the tag team titles, so there would be no reason for her to be in a title match at this time. So of course, it was Jade picking up the win to go to the finals on Saturday. Is she winning the whole thing? For sure. 

-Gunther Promo

Such an interesting promo if you ask me. Gunther was very serious, and a little bothered it seemed. I loved the seriousness and over all vibe from it all. I really (for the love of God) hope this match it straight forward and there is no short cuts. They still have just about 2 more weeks to build this up. 

-Women's Intercontinental Championship: Bayley vs. Becky Lynch

The match was REALLY good, I would say.. but I am not a huge fan of the ending. I am not a huge fan of how Lyra has been involved either. I don't understand the full NEED of Lyra and Bayley being against each other. So after Bayley is attacked, she comes back.. and then Lyra is pissed at her? I don't get it. Bayley didn't cost Lyra anything. However this went even further as Lyra cost Bayley the match, when she attacked Becky. I smell a triple threat.

-Rhea/Raquel

The two have been coming back and forth at each other for a while now.. and now it's come to a head. Against my better judgement, I actually have enjoyed this. It's nice to see Raquel on her own, and not be in the shadows of someone else. That has seemed to be almost her whole career. After Raquel called out Rhea, they brawled a bit.. and Rhea ended up going through a table. We did see Roxanne come to help as well, doing her best to get in good graces. So I am starting to think that we might be replacing Liv sooner than we think. 

-King of the Ring Tournament Semifinal: Cody Rhodes vs. Jey Uso

I enjoyed this match so much! The whole match had me on the edge of my seat to be honest.. and I would love to see them have more matches moving forward. I also really loved the respect that was shown, as they weren't really pitted against each other for this match. In the end tho, it was Cody Rhodes that got the win.. and will move on to face Randy Orton in the finals. That match... should be amazing.

Overall: 7.9/10

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

UP NEXT: Friday Night Smackdown

-Who will be the team to cost Wyatt Sicks their title match?
-Will Tiffy retain her title against Nia Jax?
-Will we see a NEW Women's US Champ??
-Could we see matches starting to be announced for Evolution??

It's safe to say that with everything that has been going down the last week or so.. Evolution is in trouble. I smell quick matches put together that won't make sense nor go anywhere else past the PLE. Sadly.. that is just how it is. We also (the same weekend) have Saturday Night Main Event.. in which only one match has been announced. Hopefully after this weekend in Saudi.. things will heat up. Only time can tell. After that, full steam ahead for Summer Slam! It's safe to say after this weekend, we will already have TWO matches that will be announced... this will include the winner of Queen/King of the Ring facing the current Champs. 

It's going to be a long week.. so let's go!

until next time

xoxo,

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...
