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 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,
Chels

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...
