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 more time of Jacy... but this leads the question, what is next?
-Rodriguez and Perez vs. The Kabuki Warriors vs. Flair and Bliss vs. Ruca and Zaria
I liked it but I didn't at the same time. Now.. don't get me wrong, all of these women work wonderful together... But we did see multiple things happening within the match. Ruca and Zaria on the rocks (once again), Flair and Bliss taking care of each other and earning trust... and Perez basically turning into Liv. I fully expected Flair/Bliss to pick up the win.. but it doesn't look like we are getting those titles just yet. Interesting to say the least. Raquel and Roxanne retained, which moves on to the thought of who WILL take those titles?
-Tiffany Stratton vs. Trish Stratus
This match was crazy good! Both women worked so well tagging together, and this was no exception of facing each other. I loved it, even tho there were a couple of questionable moments. Both women made each other look great. While it would have been great to see Trishy win, it was Tiffy that retained. Now are we getting the build up for Jade?
-Jade Cargill vs. Naomi
I went into this 110% thinking there were going to be some messy spots with Bianca (she was the guest ref) but I was wrong. The match was pretty good, and very off from where I thought it was going to go. Both women did great! However in the end, it was Jade that picked up the big win. Now she moves on to Summer Slam with Tiffy. This does make you wonder.. are they preparing her for a big win??
-Battle Royal
I have mixed feelings about this whole thing to be honest. First of all.. everyone did great! Everyone got their own entrance, and I thought that was a nice touch! I do wish there would have been some surprises, and that they didn't announce who was all in it before hand. The final 3 women were Stephanie Vaquer, Lash Legend, and Nikki Bella.. which was an amazing line up btw. After Nikki was taken out.. it was very clear who would win. Vaquer was able to get Lash out, and has now secured her spot at Clash in Pairs.
-Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley
Oh my God, what a freaking match! This was amazing in the best way possible, and I didn't see this coming. If you haven't seen this match, I suggest you go watch it like... now. Both women tore the house down with this one.. to the point where you couldn't predict the ending. It did seem Rhea was winning at the very end, but then Naomi came out.. CASHED IN... AND WON! WHAT WAS EVEN THAT? OMG! Super shocked, and a little sad that Rhea didn't win.. but Naomi DESERVED THIS! I can't wait to see where this will be going moving forward. Everything that I THOUGHT was going to happen moving into Summer Slam just vanished.
Overall: 9.8/10
