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. Well.. I love that The Usos are back together... But this whole thing with The New Day. It's weird and doesn't fit right. I understand the vibe and all.. but the overall character change just doesn't hit for me. I don't understand why Grayson is there either. It's all very confusing in my opinion. Regardless, I was very happy to see The Usos pick up the win.
Maxxine Dupri vs. Ivy Nile
The match itself could have been better, but I am still happy with it. I loved that both of these women got their time to shine. Ivy and Maxxine deserve the world, and I am so happy and proud of all the work they have put in over the last 1.5 years.. I can't wait to see who will face Maxxine next. I could for sure see Maxxine keeping the title until at least Mania, if not Elimination Chamber.
Stephanie Vaquer vs. Raquel Rodriguez
Am I surprised? Not really... But I was still pissed overall. I don't give a crap what anyone says.. Raquel has worked her ass off the last little while. While it would have been a HELL of a shock for her to win, they should have at least let the woman have a clean match. The match itself overall.. so good. What ruined it was Nikki causing the no contest. Let me guess, Nikki is going to be the one to take it off of Stephanie? And then Liv? Then... that would cause an issue with Raquel? Hmm.. it could be another way to break up Judgement Day?
Rey Mysterio vs. Logan Paul
The match itself was pretty good I would say.. but it would have been even better without mask man giving Logan the help for a win. We did see Punk come out as well to help after the match ended.. and an actual reveal of mask man. Who was it? Just like I called it... Austin Theory! I think this is very interesting and I am pretty happy overall with this and can't wait to see where this is going!
**Punk also did a promo in response to Bron.. and it was freaking amazing.
Overall: 9.1/10

UP NEXT: Friday Night Smackdown
**Last night was a double taping, from my understanding they did tape Smackdown for the 26th? That is what I am gathering, so if you don't want spoilers, please don't go looking for them.
*What will happen between MFT and Wyatt Sicks?
*Will there be more matches/interaction with Damian/Alister?
*Is Rhea on Smackdown now?
*Where is Tiffy?
*What is next for Jade? And who will face her next?
Regardless, I will still be live tweeting Wednesday, Friday, and Monday!
until next time
xoxo,
Chels
