AEW Dynamite Review 20.2.2025.

MJF And Hangman Adam Page Segment.

I'm once again skipping the intro, because what we started off with here was perfect. I loved this. From both men stairing each other down, from their respective corners, to the delivery, and its execution, and the draping of Lts, that was laced through this segment. Both men bounced off each other like a rubber ball verbally. This. Was. A 19 minute promo tour de force. This hole segment was delivered with, fire, and grace. Max fake walked away, and spat in Hangmans face, this caused a brawl, that was seperated by security. Christopher Daniels came out and reasoned with Hangman as this segment came to an end. I loved this. I could sit here and go through this segment piece by piece, but it wouldn't do it any justice, because this was great. Tony Khan then announced the Match for Revolution. MJF vs Hangman Adam Page. This is going to be great I can feel it.

The Opps vs The Patriarchy.

I didn't like this. The Match felt stagnant from the start and it never recoverd. The Opps, beat. The Patriarchy, when Hook choked out Nick Wayne. This. Was. A letdown.

Big Bill vs Powerhouse Hobbs Street Fight.

I had a great time watching this, unlike the Chris Jericho segment that came beforehand. From Hobbs getting smacked in the face with a sound mixer. Him getting busted open, when he was chucked into the steel steps. Bill beforehand was battered by Hobbs, with a steel chair, these moments elevated the violence. Bryan Keith got launched through a table, and Big Bill was made to eat wood, when Hobbs pushed him through a table to get the win.

The Murder Machines Segment.

The Murder Machines want The Hurt Syndicate. This sounds interesting, and a decent direction heading into Revolution.

Double Or Nothing Announcement.

Justin Roberts announced that AEW is coming back to Arizona, and they're bringing Double Or Nothing with them over the May Bank Holiday. I think this is a great idea taking the PPV outside of it's comfort zone of Las Vegas. It's no secret that AEW have hit a curd when it comes to ticket sales, so this is a good way to drive up revenue.

Timeless Toni Storm Segment.

I liked this. From calling herself insults, plugging her new movie Queen Of The Ring, to basking in her own glory, and if anyone wants to face her, then she's easy to find, because she's timeless. Never change Toni.

Gabe Kidd Is Coming To AEW.

Gabe Kidd is coming to AEW this Saturday on Collision. I'm just going to call it Gabe Kidd vs Kenny Omega at Forbidden Door. Please come to Wembley Arena Tony, and not The o2.

Willow Nightingale And Marina Shafir Fiiiiiiggggghhhhht.

Willow Nightingale, had her TV interview with Renee Paquette interrupted, by Marina Shafir, and the pair had a fight. Jon Moxley then got a cameraman to walk his crew to the ring, he cut a promo threatening to finish the job that he started on Adam Copeland, in the aftermath of what happened in Brisbane. Jay White came out, and he was instantly sandwiched between The Deathriders, and. Pac, this brought out Adam Copeland, to make the save, after a predictable brawl took place, The Deathriders ran away like cowards. Adam Copeland then cut a promo on Moxley, threatening Murder on live TV. I hated this. This segment made The Deathriders look weak, again, and it failed to deliver an equal playing field. 

Mercedes Mone Segment.

Mercedes Mone vs Komo Watanabe at Revolution, well, yes please AEW, that sounds delightful.

Kris Statlander vs Megan Bayne.

Megan Bayne, beat. Kris Statlander, in a decent TV Match, thanks to Penelope Ford, and. Thunder Rosa also wanted a piece, of Batmans favourite heel.

Max Castor Segment.

Who's facing Max Castor this Saturday on Collision. If i'm honest. I don't care.

Ricochet Segment.

This. Was great. What do you get, when you put Wrestlings answer to Jeffrey Dalmer, a robe, and Prince Nana, in a segment together, well that's easy, a passionate segment, that was awesome. Ricochet is just a big bully isn't he.

Orange Cassidy vs Roderick Strong International Championship Tournament.

I loved this. From the fast paced opening. The Undisputed Kingdom, acting like they've watched to many episodes of Saved By The Bell, because they're best friends forever, this Match was a clinic, that turned out to have great physicality. Cassidy got the win, and was greated by The Don Callis Family. Don cut a promo on him, After Tony Schiavone tried to get a word with him. Don called him a punk hippie, he was beaten down, leaving Kenny Omega to make the save. Orange Cassidy vs Kenny Omega, at a later date, sounds good.

Overview Of AEW Dynamite.

This. Was. AEW getting back to basics, and it was a blast. The in-ring work went from good to great, and the promos followed the same pattern.

This weeks AEW Dynamite is a solid 8/10.

Monday Night Raw Review. 18.2.2025

Superstars Seen Showing Up.

Seth Rollins. Finn Balor. Roxanne Perez. Raquel Rodriguez. Dakota Kai. Ivy Nile, and. AJ Styles, who turned up in style, when he was dropped off by a Nascar Driver, were seen showing up to the arena.

Sami Zayn Segment.

I loved this segment. Sami came out and was overwhelmed by the fan response. He talked about his past with Kevin Owens, and the winding roads that they've been down, and how he can't forgive him for trying to end his career. Adam Pearce Stepped onto the stage, and says no that sami can't face Kevin at Elimination Chamber, because he's worried about what might happen. Sami fights back, and twists the scenario in Adams face. Pearce was left with no chance but to make the Match, at Elimination Chamber it will be Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn in an unsanctioned Match. I loved this development.

The Judgement Day Segments.

The downfall of The Judgement was an occurring theme throughout this broadcast. It all went Pete Tong for these guys last night.

AJ Syles vs The Human Oven.

This felt a bit flat in my opinion. AJ, beat the young Mysterio, and he then embarrassed him by having Bron Breakker sphere him out of his boots. This did make me laugh.

Dakota Kai vs Ivy Nile  Womens Intercontinental Championship No1 Contenders Match.

Dakota Kai, beat. Ivy Nile, in a flat TV Match. This was disapointing in my opinion.

Gunther Segment.

I loved this segment. Gunther flipped the script on Jey, and entered through the fans, whilst cutting his promo. From insulting the fans, and making them look dumb, by saying they wouldn't understand Shakesphere, he flipped this into what he thought of Jey, because he's not fit enough to lace his boots. Now that's nonsense. I read my dog Jane Spiderman comics all the time. He brought to light how fans are encouraging the notion that Jey is going to beat him at Mania. He asked for the opinon of Michael Cole, and. Pat Mcafe, and Pat said, yes. Jey could beat him. This coursed Jey to come out, and a fight broke out. Jey would speeak of his frustration to Cathy Kelley later on in the broadcast.

Penta vs Pete Dunne.

Penta, beat. Pete Dunne in a decent TV Match, as Ludwig Kaiser watched on.

Roxanne Perez vs Raquel Rodriguez Elimination Chamber Qualifier.

I liked this. But I get the feeling that WWE were using this an audition piece for Perez, she got the win thanks to Bianca Belair, and. Bayley, coming out and costing Raquel, after they saw the footage of the night that Jade Cargill was attacked. Roxanne is in the Chamber. I liked this.

Karrion Kross Segment.

After Seth Rollins was interviewed by Cathy Kelley, in stepped big Kazza Kross. Who tried to predict the future. Sami won't beat Kevin. Jey won't beat Gunther, and. Seth won't beat Finn, well two of those theories might come true.

Iyo Sky Vingnette.

This. Was. A straight to the point vingnette, that examplified the history between her and Rhea Ripley. I liked this.

New Day Segment.

This didn't go to plan for WWE's newest heels, they were booed out of the building. they insulted Rey Mysterio, whilst explaining their actions last week. This angered the LWO, who came out and took the words from out of this writers head. New Day Suck.

Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor Elimination Qualifier.

This. Match reminded me of that moment in Friends, when that god amongst men. Joey ate some of Rachels tainted triffle. The In ring work gooooood, and the storytelling that was built into the Match, was also goooooood, you can tell I had fun watching this before I went to my day Job. Seth got the win, and is heading to the chamber, now say it with me now, this night was a hole load of wat wah, for The Judgement Day.

Overview Of Monday Night Raw.

This. Weeks Monday Night Raw, was the quite essential mix-bag. The in-ring work went from poor to good, whilst the promos stole the show.

This weeks Monday Night Raw is a solid 7/10

My Top 5 Takeaways From NXT Vengeance Day.

 Intro.

As time has worn on I have warmed up a bit, to how the newish version of NXT is looking, and sounding. The product hasn't been that bad, and its getting better, so here's my thoughts on this years Vengeance Day PLE.

5. Fraxiom are awesome.

I have only one thing to say, and that is this. Fraxiom are one of the best Tag Teams working today. Enough said.

4. Stephanie Vaquer.

This. Is. Going to look like i'm simping for Stephanie, but the fact that her achievement was overlooked. She's the first woman of South American decent to win a title Match in WWE. The fact that this has gone unnoticed is actually shocking to me.

3. Santino Marella.

Santino Marella is back in WWE, ( well kind of ) I love this man, especially when he became Ricky Fatton. So many memories. God bless Santino.

2. Oba Femi.

I've been saying this for months. Oba Femi is the future of WWE. I'm becoming a fan of this big guy.

1. Roxanne Perez.

As a fan of this young talent I want her on the main roster after Wrestlemania. Her four way against Bayley. Giulia. Cora Jade, may have been met with mixed reviews, and I can understand why, but this should be used as a measuring stick, and Roxanne is off the chart, and moving forwards.

AEW Grandslam Australia Review.

 Intro.

Ok everyone it's singalong with Patrick time. Da na na na na, you you know we belong together. AEW will visit Australia for now and forever and ever. And from the very first day of their existance, some fans had never felt such emotion, they were walking on air, just to know, that an alternative wasn't near it was here. Lets hold AEW in our arms, and never let them go. I want them to stay forever, closer each day. AEW is better than Home And Away. Thanks everyone, my name is Patrick O'malley and i'm here all week. I love the fact that AEW has gone Down Under. Global Expansion is key for any business, whether you're a content creator, or a wrestling company, yes the planning around this event has beyond awkward, and badly planned. I feel that every company makes mistakes, and this is something that Tony Khan will learn from, however I think there is more to story than dodgy planning from both sides.

Konosuke Takeshista And Kyle Fletcher vs Will Osperay vs Kenny Omega.

One of the main complaints that I have come across whilst writing this review, was to do with the size of the ring. I don't agree with the complaints, and didn't find it distracting. In any fact, I feel it elevated some matches, and this was one of them. I loved this Match, it had a solid flow, the near falls, and team work from both teams, blended in nicely with the Matches within the Match. They were a real look through the looking glass, at how you put together a well created masterclass in Tag Team wrestling. The exchanges were awesome, and they built to one hell of a finish. Omega, and. Osperay got the win with an insane One winged angel, and hidden blade combo finish, the visual of this finish looked incredible. Kenny Omega vs Konosuke Takeshista for the AEW international Championship, and. Will Osperay vs Kyle Fletcher in a steel cage Match at Revolution, yes please AEW.

Mercedes Mone vs Harley Cameron AEW Womens TBS Championship.

I had fun with this. From the solid in-ring, puppet fun, that Mercedes didn't find funny, to the near falls being perfectly woven into the match, however after a series of decent exchanges. Mercedes got the win, and retained her belt.

Brisbane Brawl Adam Copeland And Jay White vs Jon Moxley And Claudio Castagnoli.

From fans chanting explicitives at Moxley. Adam Copeland taking in the fans singing back Metalingus back to him, to the all out bloodstained plunder carnage. The table spots were great. Cope taking out Claudio from the top of an exit, and Jay White no selling wheeler Yuta whipping him like a goverment mule, to Mox getting the win by choking out Copeland. I liked this, and had a great time watching it at 10PM here in the UK.

Buddy Mathews vs Kazuchika Okada AEW Continental Championship.

This. Was. A mental game of chess, that turned into a lofi burner of a Match. From Okada getting called an explicitive, that turned into a fan chant. The Match was carried out in steps, and phases, and as they played out. I found it captivating, yes this wasn't the best Match on the card, but it was enjoyable. Okada retained his belt after he hit his rainmaker finisher on Buddy.

AEW Womens World Championship Marieh May vs Toni Storm.

This. Was. A lot of fun, from Luther ushering in the past, that gave way to a oscar winning performance by Toni. From old school to new school. What both ladies managed to craft out, was something that can act as a memory that the Australian fans can take home with them. Toni Storm is now a 4 time AEW World Womens Champion. The image that went around of her online, celebrating with fans in the aftermath, was a nice thing that you don't normally see in wrestling. This. Was. A great way to send the show off the air.

Overview Of AEW GrandSlam Australia.

From the card, to the overall reception from fans. I thought this was the definition of a back to basics wrestling show, all killer, with very little filler. Storylines progressed nicely, and the in-ring work was awesome.

AEW Australian Grandslam is a very high 9/10.

 WWE Friday Night Smackdown Review 15.2.2025.

Intro.

Now the build to Wrestlemania is starting to take shape. It's important that WWE try and carve some decent creative, as fan interest online is being looked at as divisive. It's up to the head brass, to navigate through these rough waters, because if they don't, then trying times good be around the corner.

Superstars Seen Showing Up.

Nia Jax. Tiffany Stratton. Braun Strowman. Damien Priest, and. Tama Tonga, and. Jacob Fatu, were all seen showing up to the arena.

Universal Championship Promotrain.

Cody Rhodes kicked off the show by walking out to the ring, and basking in the admiration, he talked about how his Mania direction is shaping up, and runs through the entrants in the mens Elimination Chamber Match, and the man who came out with the biggest pop was of course. The Invisible Man. This brought out Drew Mcintyre, both men had a decent promo dual, that was built to inflate Drews Ego, it wasn't long before Jacob Fatu, and his minder Tama Tonga came out. Jacob took to the mic, with fire and grace, and said after he beats Priest, and. Strowman tonight, he will go to the Elimination Chamber, and win, punching his ticket to the grandest show of them all, and then on the big screen, a limo was seen driving into the arena. Solo Sikoa got out, and this put Jacob in a spin. Both he and Cody want to get their hands on him. This would act as a decent episode long storythread. I love Jacob Fatu, but does Solo? That's the question.

Womens Elimination Chamber Qualifier Naomi vs Chelsea Green.

Before the Match Wade Barrett was seen having a lovely chat With Trish Stratus. Ok Wade, if you want to talk to someone who backed up an awful human being, then ok, mate be my guest. Naomi, beat Chelsea Green, in a decent TV Match, to advance to the Chamber Match in two weeks time.

Sami Zayn Segment And Kevin Owens Follow Up.

I liked both of these segments, they were short, and sweet, and got to the point.

The Motorcity Machine Gunns vs Los Garza.

Even though I love The Motorcity Machine Gunns, I didn't like this. Yes, they got the win, but overall this was over before it had time to marinade.

Shinsuke Nakamura United States Championship Promotrain.

I'm in two minds over this. I hate Nakamura's new direction, his character falls into awful stereotypes, and his promo was woeful, so step forward LA Knight. He got straight to the point, and cut Nakamura down to size with pure ease. He was then greated by The Miz, and the second part of my brain liked this, their promo dual was great, and their impromptu Match that was set up by Nick Aldis, was fine. Knight got the win, me thinks this is going to be the direction for the Elimination Chamber PLE midcard.

Alexa Bliss Segment.

Alexa Bliss had a minor meeting backstage with Nia Jax, oh well at least she's doing something.

R Truth vs Carmelo.

I'm just going to say it. The Miz is a poor mans Rodney Dangerfield, because he isn't funny. And speaking of funny. God bless you R Truth. I always come away with a smile after watching this guy. He lost here to Carmelo, after his cluelessness got him into a bit of trouble.

The Street Profits Segment.

I'm loving this heel version of The Street Profits, and they want Gold, and by the sounds of it. Pretty Deadly, also want to get their hands on DIY.

WWE Womens Championship Match Nia Jax vs Tiffany Stratton.

What this Match resembled, was a decent effort with a dodgy finish. The Match was thrown when Candace Lerae got involved, and a massive fight broke out, and Trish Stratus helped Tiffany in fending off. Nia, and. Candace, later on Trish gave Tiffany an offer later on. Elimination Chamber, her and Tiffany vs Nia and Candace. Say it with me guys. it's Trishy, and. Tiffy time. Charlotte Flair came out in the aftermath and sat on a steal chair, and did her best Ash Ketchum impersonation, and chose Tiffany as her opponent at Wrestlemania. I liked this development.

Jacob Fatu vs Braun Strowman vs Damien Priest Elimination Chamber Qualifier.

I liked this. From the distractions that caused the finish, to the Match taking the form of three big bulls, doing big bull things. Priest got the win, after Cody and Solo, had a bust up that is going to have serious ramifications, after Solo accidentally spiked Tama Tonga, and not Cody.

Overview Of Friday Night Smackdown.

I had fun watching this broadcast. The action went from average to good, and the promos were solid.

This Weeks Friday Night Smackdown is a solid 7/10.

        My Top 5 Favourite Memories Of WCW. 

            Intro.

WCW, agh yes, so many memories, from the good to the outright bad. Today i'm going to fucus on my favourite moments, because i've had a Costa, and two Salted Caramel Brownies, so lets go people.

5. The Immersion Of The NWO.

From the time I cried my eyes out at the sight of the industry changing in front of me, after The Great American Bash 1996, to. Hogan vs Sting, even though the group folded in on itself. I had some great times winding my non wrestling fan dad, whilst watching the world burn.

4. The Yeti.

WCW in 1995. oh the memories. This was so bad to the point that it was great.

3. 1.000 Holds.

This Chris Jericho segment is a classic, he and Dean Malenko had great chemistry, and this was priceless.

2. Bash At The Beach 2000.

Don't you just love it when you see an awful human being, with, by all  accounts, a terrible tasting beer get served some humble pie.

1. Anything To Do With David Flair.

What is the best way to describe this man? He's the best gift that kept on giving, because he was just so funny to watch, and he wasn't even a comedy character. ( I think )



Thursday, 13 February 2025

AEW Dynamite Review 13.2.2025.

Max Castor Segment.

I'm skipping the intro this week and i'm getting straight to the action. Max Castor got wrecked by Hangman Adam Page, as the Hangman murder tour continues. ( more on this  guy later ) I liked this.

The Undisputed Kingdom vs The Deathriders AEW World Trios Championship.

I liked this. It was a well paced, fun opener, that turned into a lofi slugfest. The near falls were cleverly placed, and The Deathriders got the win, thanks to my favourite trope in wrestling. Chair fun, followed by a low blow, this allowed Yuta to roll up Kyle O'reilly for the win. Daddy Magic, and. Daniel Garcia  chased them off. I hated this. Adam Copeland, and. Jay White, then played childish games with Moxley and Marina, and stole the AEW Heavyweight Championship. This would start off a pathetic episode long storythread. If you want your briefcase back, then come and get it.  GROW UP. This. Is. A bad way to treat you Audience. Don't do this AEW.

MJF Segment.

From speaking ill about Dustin Rhodes, to him cutting down Hangman Adam Page, with pure verbal brutality. I liked this. ( more on these guys later on )

Samoa Joe. Hook. And Katsuyouri Shibata vs Aaron Solo. Jon Cruz, and Rosario Cruz.

Samoa Joe. Hook, and. Katsuyouri Shibata, beat enhancement talents in a flat TV Match. Joe then took to the mic, and cut a promo, challenging The Patriarchy to a trios Match next week, in the only way he knows how, by threatening my favolurite things. Violence, and. Chaos.

Chris Jericho Segment And Everything That Comes With It.

The following Segment was beyond terrible. Chris Jericho, and. Bandido, had a western style dual. Bryan Keith beat down Bandido, and Big Bill, and. Powerhouse Hobbs had a fight, oh and hello The Outrunners. This. Was, you know what If I take my brain out, everything will be ok.

Marina Shafir And Jon Moxley Segment.

Marina Shafir decked Willow Nightingale, taking away her interview time with Renee Paquette, so her master Jon Moxley, could threaten Adam Copeland. Patrick it's ok, put down your chromebook.

Dustin Rhodes vs MJF.

I loved this. The Match felt fresh. It felt Relevant, and it got to the point. The near falls were well placed, as the story of the Match was crafted into fans brains, as the breathing time for what was going, was put into balance. Dustins passion, blended in nicely with Max's narcissism. Max got the win after a solid round of exchanges. Hangman Adam Page came out, and he and Max had a seperation brawl in the fans, that concluded with a fan getting a pint chucked in his face, and Max cutting a promo on him, which led to another pull apart brawl. Max verbally setting fire to the fans with words, is a tool that he's using to a perfect intense level. 

Two Ladies Matches Back To Back.

Two ladies Matches on Dynamite. Is Tony OK. I mean. I know he was at the Superbowl, but did he come back with a Super fever. Megan Bayne, beat. Mia World, in a flat TV Match, and, then. Kris Statlander, beat. Penelope Ford, in a decent Match. Bayne beat her down in the aftermath.

Harley Cameron Segment.

Harley Cameron rapping. I have no other words, other than. I loved this segment. I want that Mone puppet.

The Hurt Syndicate vs The Gunns AEW Tag Team Championship.

I'm just going to say it. I didn't hate this. The Match had a good flow to it, and the in-ring work wasn't bad. And the story made sense. The Hurt Syndicate, retained. The Hurt Syndicate vs Archer and Cage, at a later point. I don't hate this.

Marieh May Segment.

Is Marieh May, better than Toni Storm? Now that's an interesting question. I can't wait for the Match this Saturday. 

Adam Copeland and Jay White Segment.

I have mixed feelings about this. I liked the verbalage from Copeland, as he showed his menacing side, thanks his mate Spike, and. Jon Moxleys acceptance of his challenge was passionate, but Predictable. The beat down that came after confirmed my feelings from earlier. I want this storyline to hurry up and be gone. The segment ended with Jay White threatening murder on live TV. I'm done that's it, my brain is coming out.

Overview Of AEW Dynamite.

I actually don't know what to say about this weeks Dynamite. For me, this wasn't very good. It was just above mid.

This week Dynamite by AEW's Standards is a 6/10.

Just A Bit Of Fantasy Booking Part 1. Who Should Move From AEW To WWE and Why.

Let's get into It.

I'm going on a bit of fun crusade with this one people. I figured in light Of Ricky Starks jumping over the fence, and going to the land of The Fed. I thought I would do a different piece than what I had planned. This leads to me  to say this. Who feels like watching  the internet burn down.

Britt Baker to WWE.

It's no secret that I'm a Britt Baker fan, so just imagine this. Britt Baker vs Iyo Sky, or Britt Baker vs Roxanne Perez, or my dream Match Britt Baker vs Rhea Ripley. The possibilities are endless.

Hatred And Rivalries Reignited.

Imagine this. What MJF, and. Jon Moxley moved to, and back, to the fed, after their contracts end. I wonder who they will want to face first. I mean c'mon this writes itself doesn't it.

Powerhouse Hobbs. 

Powerhouse Hobbs vs Jacob Fatu, or. Powerhouse Hobbs vs Braun Strowman. C'mon people, this also writes itself doesn't it.

Malakai Black.

I don't know what you could do with this guy, he faced Cody before, and he's picked fights in a broom cubbard. This is an interesting paradox.

Julia Hart.

Just imagine this, what would this Match look like. Thea Hail vs Julia Hart. Am I the only person who thinks that sounds interesting.


 Part 2 coming soon.

Tuesday, 11 February 2025

Monday Night Raw Review 11.2.2025.

      Intro. 

This time of year, is a special one. The rd to Wrestlemania is an ever winding ride, with many turns, and thrills. Rd to Wrestlemania we love you. Enough said.

Superstars Seen Showing Up.

Rey Mysterio. Logan Paul. Lyra Valkyria. Bayley, and AJ Styles, were seen showing up to the arena.

Jey Uso Segment.

Ok. It's official. I love this man. His entrance is always energetic, and this is why it was so important for Gunther to attack him, during the encore of his fun with the fans. This. Was. A fantastic piece of business, when you dig beneath the weeds. Jey Challenged Gunther to a Match at Mania for his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. I like the way that HHH has booked this. He's clearly giving this rivalry time to develop, and breath. This. Is decent booking 101, and kit's paying off. Yeeeeeet.

Iyo Sky And Rhea Ripley Segment.

Rhea Ripley vs Iyo Sky at a later date. Yes please WWE. This Match was made official later on in the show for the Raw after Elimination Chamber.

Liv Morgan And Raquel Rodriguez vs Damage Ctrl.

I didn't like this. It just felt off, and, felt like a vital ingridient was missing. Damage Ctrl got the win. I understand that there was a botch in the Match, that caused Liv to get busted open. And all I have to say is this. Accidents happen people, they're wrestlers and not ballet dancers, so don't give Iyo or Dakota any hate online.

Bayley vs Lyra Valkyria Elimination Chamber Qualifier.

I liked this. It had a natural flow that is hard to put in a can. Bayley got the win by Roll-up, and raised her opponents hand as she gave the future a chance. Ivy Nile then acted like a small minded wind up merchant, in a backstage sement with Lyra later on in the broadcast.

Penta Vingnette.

Penta wants to get his hands on Pete Dunne, and. Ludwig Kaiser wants to get to Penta, this is just a nice tasting sandwich isn't it.

AJ Styles Segment.

I loved all of this. AJ Styles is one of my favourite wrestlers of all time, and it's great to see him back in the ring, his promo here was great, and his interaction with Dominik Mysterio was awesome, also as a big country music fan. I loved Pat Mcafe's version of I Love This Bar By Toby Keith, well they were in Nashville after all. Bron Breakker vs AJ at a later date sounds interesting.

Seth Rollins Segment.

Seth Rollins then had a standing interview with Jackie Redmond, he stated that all eyes are on Cody, and he has his sights set on winning the Elimination Chamber. Step forward Finn Balor, and the two had an enjoyable promo encounter, the pair will meet in an Elimination Chamber Qualifier next week. Just a little reminder to The Judgement Day, listen to Finn guys, It might help you.

American Made vs The War Raiders WWE Tag Team Championship.

This Match was thrown out when Julius smacked Eric with one of the belts. This was a bad ending, to what was a decent Match.

Cm Punk Segment And Rey Mysterio vs Logan Paul.

I liked all of this. From Punk reflecting on last weeks main event, to calling out the invisible man, who's put himself in the Chamber. He laid bare his thoughts on both Seth Rollins, and. Drew Mcintyre, because Mania belongs to him. Logan Paul then came out, and the pair had a great promo dual. I can't stand Logan Paul, and this is a clear look at both mens future booking plans. Rey Mysterio vs Logan, was an interesting Elimination Chamber Qualifier. Logan got the win in. The physicality was awesome, and it meshed in perfectly with both mens styles, however the brass knucks played a part in the finish, which felt a bit predictable in my opinion. The New Day beat Rey down, as the show went off the air.

Overview Of Monday Night Raw.

I had a good time watching this show at 7am before I went off to my day Job. The in-ring work was good, and the promos were solid.

This Weeks Monday Night Raw is a solid 7/10.

My Moments In Wrestling That Destroyed The Internet.

    Intro.

Ok people I have a real treat for you, because todays top 5 list, we're going to be talking about everyones favourite thing in the entire world, the internet, because every wrestling fanbase loves the Internet. I can feel the earth start to burn as I type this out. So lets get into it.

5 Both of Cm Punks Returns.

From leaving He Shall Not Be Named's Evil Empire, and then hanging them out to dry on a podcast, with his then Best friend, to coming back and joining AEW, a company that found its groove within the world of Pro Wrestling, quite quickly. His run in Tony Khans little Promotion, saw him face off against Eddie Kingston. Jon Moxley. Darby Allin. Hangman Adam Page, and. MJF, in a rivalry that is my favourite ever feuds in wrestling, and a load of muffins at a press conference. This would start the downward spiral that would see Philip Brooks, be let go from the promotion, after an altercation with Jack Perry backstage at AEW All In London, a show that I attended in person. Punk would then go back to WWE, returning at Survivor Series 2023 in Chicago. This broke X, and all this did was deepen the divide between AEW, and. WWE fans. In a moment thas gone on to live as one of the destructive moments in wrestling history. Pipebomb indeed.

4. Occupying A Monday Night.

This Moment was built of back of fans getting sick and tired of having to eat the chosen meal, and not their favourite, back in 2014 the WWE were feeding its fanbase, gruel, when all they wanted was the finest 5 course meal. This is the perfect way to describe the moment when Daniel Bryan, and a shed load of fans, took it upon themselves to occupy  a segment on Monday Night Raw, as the final hurdle on the rd to Wrestlemania 30, started to get over the bumps that it encountered, as fan backlash gained momentum. A pivert was made, and the rest was history.

3. Any Bloodline Segment.

From Sami getting Initiated into the family. His outstanding trial segment from Raw XXX, to his overall betrayal, at the 2023 Royal Rumble. This faction that took influence from multiple TV Shows, and have some memorable moments, that destroyed the internet as we knew it.

2. Cody Rhodes.

From returning  to the company that released him at Mania 38, to last years Mania build getting sent straight off a cliff, thanks to Dwayne. This man had the whole internet backing him with one simple hashtag # We want Cody, from the chaos, to finishing his own story. This man has broke the internet on multiple occasions.

1. Brock Lesnar Ends The Streak.
