Mondat Night Raw Review 12.3.2024

Intro

As I sit here on a cold and rainy Tuesday morning. I sit here thinking to myself, could things get any worse for the WWE pr department? Last night, around 10.30.pm UK time, more details came out, to do with executives that had their names hidden in the Janel Grant lawsuit. And all i have to say is this. If this is true, then all involved need to named and shamed. The lack of care and dudiligence, that. WWE have shown in the past, is nothing less than shocking, and deeply upsetting. Even at the time writing these are just allegations. It still sickens me to my core. Talk, listen and learn, and believe survivors.

Drew Mcintyre segment

Drew Mcintyre kicked off the show, taking shots at Seth Rollins, and Cm Punk. by calling Seth selfish, and having an agenda, when Drew mentioned Punk, he was nearly drowned out by the fans chanting for Punk, he spoke about the relevance of the bigger picture, and gives fans a lesson in history, which examplified the phrase. Then. Now, and. Forever. He called Cody a liar, and said that the world does revolve around Seth, because the future, and. Seths belt belongs to him. Seth comes out, and tells the scotsman to shut up, and asks for another claymore, after last week getting laid out by Drew. Seth called Drew, a coward. Drew told Seth, that he was right to forget about. The Bloodline, by begging and pleading with him. Seth told Drew, that he sounded like an ice cream loving hypocrite, and an hounary member of. The Bloodline. Both. Seth, and. Drew, got over the urgence of both nights of Mania. Seth promised to retain, by giving Drew a stomp into the mat, because. Drew stopped the fans from singing Seth's song. Drew walked out, but. Seth pulled him back in, by telling him, that he is at the bottom of the barrel, when it comes to the rest of his worries, from. Dwayne to injuries. Drew continued to walk away. I loved all of this, and it was a great way to start the show.

Becky Lynch vs Liv Morgan

I liked all of this. The Match was given plenty of time to breathe, and the story of, anything you can do, I can do better, was the benchmark of the storythread. Becky got the win, and later on, both ladies got decked by Nia Jax, which left Becky to challenge her to a last women standing Match next week. Becky, and. Rhea, had a great promo dual, that has left very excited for their Mania Match.

Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis segment

Adam Pearce, and. Nick Aldis then had a big announcement, and it centred around the Tag Team Championships, their is going to be a 6 pack challenge, and the winner winners will face. Damien Priest, and. Finn Balor, they were not best pleased, so they went to complain to Adam Pearce, like a pair of Karens. They wanted a Match against Awesome Truth, but only one of them was their, and of course it was R Truth. Priest got his wish, and later beat Truth in a solid TV Match, that had no right to as good, as what it turned out to be, plus could Andrade join the group.

Indi Hartwell and Candace Lerae vs Ivy Nile and Maxine Dupri

I hated all of this. It felt like it was just their, and a thing to be glossed over. Lerae, and. Hartwell got the win, but one thing I will leave you guys with is this, girl on girl bullying should not be potrayed on TV, when one of the companies former female executives, could be under investigation for miss conduct. All of this was poorly handled.

Michael Cole and Cody Rhodes segment

I loved all of this, from. Cody's pure emotion in his words, to his believibility. As I watched this segment, the one thing that rang true to me was, the fact that Mania means a lot this year, than in recent memory, from the slap heard around the world for the second time, the hints that Seth could turn on Cody. To the footage that could see a new direction for Cody's story. He put over the importance of family, and embraced Michael Cole, to end the segment. This. Was excellent. Don't you just love when thrones get smashed.

Kabuki Warriors vs Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark

The Kabuki Warriors, retained their. WWE Womens Tag Team Championships, by beating. Shayna Baszler, and. Zoey Stark. In a flat, and, boring TV Match.

Jey Uso segment

Ok. I'm going to get to it. Jey Uso called out his brother for a Match at Wrestlemania. This. Will be emotional.

The Gauntlet Match

Then came the main event. A Gauntlet Match, to decide who will face Gunther, for the IC tilte at Mania. This. Was an electric barn burner, from the fast paced that started things off, with. Ricochet, and. JD Mcdonagh, Bronson Reid balancing things out. Sami Zayn showcasing, what real fighting spirit means. Shinsuke Nakamura, and. Sami turning back the years, and. Chab Gable and Zayn having Match stealing performances, with their excellent exchanges. Sami got the win, and will now face. Gunther at the show of shows for the IC Championship. This. Is a contender for TV Match of the year. And I loved every second of it, well done to all involved. Gunther came out to overlook his next competitor, as. Chad Gable looked emotionally drained.

Overview Of Monday Night Raw

This. Was a great episode of weekly TV, and a fantastic set up for what is to come down the line.

This Weeks Monday Night Raw is a solid 8/10.
