Monday Night Raw Review

Intro

Ok guys. I'm going to have to start with an apology. I'm having to write this review, whilst very tired. This. Is due to my day job schedule at the moment.

Superstars Show Up And Cm Punk Segment

The Terror Twins. The Judgement Day. Damage Ctrl. Bianca, and. Jade. Braun Strowman. Bronson Reed, and. Cm Punk were all seen showing up to the arena in Portland, but this wasn't like any normal show up angle, because Punk walked his way to the ring, with a defiant attitude, and when he got inside the ring, he cut a menacing direct to camera promo, that looked like a panshot, that Stanley Kubrick would be proud of. Punk cut straight to the point, and talked about how much he has left in the tank, and the answer was, more than we think, ever since he came back to WWE, he said that he wasn't here to make friends, but he's made an enemy in Drew Mcintyre, he thinks this should've ended weeks ago, but he kept on coming back, his family told him not to do this, but he has to do this, because. Drew, has awoken the demon inside him, and even though he can't promise to kill Drew, he will make him bleed, because Punk is prepared to die, and if Drew wants to beat him, he's going to have to kill him. I liked all of this. Their Hell In A Cell Match is going to be insane. And I can't wait to see it.

Sheamus vs Pete Dunne

This. Was a fun ride, that embraced it's own european physicality, Pete had some fun with a cricket bat, which helped him get the win.

Terror Twins Segment

The Terror Twins, were backstage, when in stepped Jey Uso, and they were joined by Xavier Woods. Priest accidentally puts a curse on Xavier, and Finn had some nasty words for Rhea, but she gave it back in equal measure. Finn leave Ilja Dragunov alone.

Natalya vs Zoey Stark

Ok. I'm going get this out of the way now, this match was a mess, and a disaster. Natalya won. I don't know about you guys, but. I hated this.

Jey Uso and Bron Breakker Segment

Jey Uso was out next, after another session of trying to get with Mami, he came out, and talked about his accomplishments, and were he's going on his own, he was then confronted by Bron Breakker, and they had a great promo dual. I liked all of this. Jey Sphered Bron, to end the segment. The personal jibes about both mens families, and Brons past, made for a good exchange.

The New Day vs Finn Balor and Jd Mcdonagh WWE Tag Team Championship

This. Was, a fluent fun match of action, that blended storyline, and decent in ring action, and it paid off. Balor and Jd retained in this interference led Show piece. I have a soft spot for the LWO, but Xavier Woods doesn't feel the same. I think It's splitsville for The New Day. Oh no, how will I look at pancakes now. U*mmm breakfast food.

Bronson Reed vs Braun Strowman

Ok, if you haven't seen this, then all I can tell is this. It's bat s*** crazy, and I loved it. A fan got launched from out of his seat, and chucked into Braun Strowman, the tope rope gave way, they fought in the backstage, and it was here when the carnage amplified, both of these big lads, battered each other, like two giant Slabs of meat. Bronson Sphered Braun, through a wall to end the match.

Sami Zayn Segment

Adam Pearce, was backstage, and in stepped Ludwig Kaiser, who walked into shot, and started to instantly put down Sami Zayn. Sami made his entrance on the screen behind the pair, he made his way to the ring, and spoke with passion, and what last week meant to him. Sami mate, if I was standing in the same ring as. Bret The Hitman Hart, I would feel the same. Bret is one of favourite wrestlers ever, and if i'm honest I idolised the man when I was a kid, he said that he wants to have the same career as Bret, because he wants to be the World Heavyweight Champion, and everytime he has approached Gunther about it, he has always said no, and Sami knows why. It's because he's scared. Ludwig Kaiser came out, and spent the duration of his part of this Promotrain, by shaming Sami, but. Sami thought back, and put the seed of doubt in Ludwigs head, by telling him to stop being Gunthers lackey. Ludwig fired back by saying how dominant Gunther is. The Ring General came out, and asked Ludwig is there something that he would like to say, he proceeded by decking Sami, but. Sami fired back, after Gunther told him that the answer will always be NO. I loved this segment.

Bianca Belair vs Iyo Sky

I had a blast watching this match. Bianca's strength was a huge selling point, the physicality was great, and it both ladies worked this match with ease, and it was great to see. Iyo got the win.

American Made Segment

From The Wyatt Family, leaving him for dead, and losing his family, you could easily say that Chad Gable has a difficult few months, and his new faction agreed, their training montage had me howling with laughter. Ok, it's time to do their theme song. American. American. American. American Made, f*** yeah, freedom is the only way yeah. WWE your time is through, because now you have to answer to. American Made, f*** yeah. 

Damian Priest vs The Human Oven

I had fun watching this, from Rhea, and. The Mulletchaser having a catfight on two occasions. Wade Barrett had the time of his life. Carlito got decked, and The Oven was put away by Priest. Jey Uso came out to defend Mami's honour, only for Bron Breakker, to come out, and sphere him into next year, whilst acting like a giant, dick block. The Judgement day beat down The Terror Twins, to end the broadcast.

Overview Of Monday Night Raw

Their wasn't a lot of bad stuff on this weeks Raw, the in ring work went from ok, to great, and the segments were awesome.

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