WWE Smackdown 6/9/23 Results and Review

I watched this show in two different sit downs. The reason why is because the show was a little boring for my tastes. It was so boring that even my girlfriend was wondering why we were watching. We would see the whole thing, but I’m reviewing it on Monday afternoon instead of another time. That being said, I will be reviewing the wrestling only.

Santos Escobar defeated Mustafa Ali

This was a good overall match with Escobar getting the upper hand in the end. Mustafa Ali has to be happy with getting so much work these days. He’s on NXT and Smackdown these days. He put in some good moments, mind you, but Escobar escaped to get a spot in the Money in the Bank match that is coming up in the near future.

Bayley defeated Michin

Under 3 minutes, nothing too much to write home about to be honest. I didn’t hate it, but I also didn’t like it much. Bayley and Michin deserve a lot more than what they are given.

Butch defeated Baron Corbin

This was under 2 minutes again, and well it was nothing write home about overall. Butch wins, Corbin loses another match, and well that was that.

Iyo Sky defeated Shotzi

Guess what! Another under 3 minutes and well it wasn’t that grand. This was a bad match with a bit of back and forth, and well, nothing to write home about with such a little amount going on overall.

Austin Theory defeated Jey Uso in the United States title match

This was a good back and forth match, and Theory was looking like he was going to go down for a change. A ref bump caused Solo Sikoa to jump in but he was thwarted, and then Jimmy kicked Jey on accident, and Theory was able to jump in and pin Jey. This was some compelling work, and it was fun to see, a great thing.

Overall Thoughts

This was not great overall. It had a couple of good moments, the opening and closing matches were good, but other than that, this was a slow moving vessel of a show. It was tired. Oh, Charlotte came back, and AJ Styles got a face full of mist in another segment, not bad.

Impact Wrestling 6/8/23 Results and Review


I don’t know a lot about recent Impact wrestling action, so this is my first time looking into it. I’ll no doubt want to check out what is going on, so here we go, the results and review for Impact Wrestling that aired 6/8/23.

Chris Bey defeated Jason Hotch

A solid opening match, with some good back and forth action. This wasn’t amazing or anything, and it was only around 7 minutes long. A short match with some good moments. Bey was good here, and Hotch didn’t hold back, with both men trading blows overall.

After the match Brian Myers and John Skyler jumped Chris Bey, and ended up getting involved with a beat down. It wasn’t terrible.

Heath defeated Champagne Singh

Hey! It’s Heath Slater! This was a fast match with not a whole lot to write about. Sure it had a little back and forth, but it wasn’t much, and under 3 minutes, it’s  honestly ridiculous. I thought WWE had short matches. Heath hit a Wake up Call and won the match. It was a match, but not much of one.

Joe Hendry defeated Sheldon Jean

I’m not familiar with either person in the match. I only heard the names in passing. The match had a bit of a back and forth feel to it, with both men trading moves. There were some slow moving options here and there, with a few power moves, but overall it was a standard modern match. Don’t expect a lot of high flying options here, as it was just a standard match, with nothing too thrilling to write about.

The Coven defeated Death Dollz in the Women’s Tag Team Title Match

This back and forth affair wasn’t too crazy, and it was interesting to see two different teams. I didn’t see any of the women before, although Taylor Wilde seemed familiar. This had a good deal of brawling, and some power moves to boot, but it was definitely not a long winded matchup. After about 6 minutes or so, this match ended, and it was ok at best.

Trey Miguel defeated Bhupinger Gujjar

Not enough time was given to this X-Division match. Gujjar threw in some offense here and there, and Trey was able to thwart some of the movements. Miguel would eventually tie this one down, and won with a flurry of moves. The crowd wasn’t really into this one, with a few people shouting, but mostly quiet. I was actually a little bored with this 5 minute match. Can’t win em all.

Moose and Rich Swann defeated Jonathan Gresham and Nick Aldis

A somewhat slow moving affair was had in the main event tonight. It wasn’t fun to watch, it was just meandering for the most part. These people are going to be in the number one contenders match at Against All Odds. I didn’t hate this, mind you, it had a lot of back and forth, but it wasn’t great either. Moose was doing things great here, and really is impressive with power. Gresham was good too, and Aldis is always interesting to see as well, but it wasn’t a balanced affair at all. Moose and Swann would get the win, but not without a good fight towards the end.

Overall Thoughts

There’s a reason why not a lot of podcasts or bloggers are talking about Impact Wrestling. While it’s not that great, it had its moments overall. I would watch it in person, and would definitely keep an eye out for some quality match ups from the Impact crew.

ROH Honor Club 6/8/23 Results and Review

I didn’t know what to expect from ROH, but I wanted to see what was up, and review it. So here we go, we are going to be reviewing ROH Honor Club 15, from 6/8.

Kyle Fletcher defeated Christopher Daniels

I’ve never seen Fletcher before, but I have seen Christopher Daniels. Daniels is great, and Fletcher was doing well against him. The match was mid-paced, slowly moving towards an ending. It wasn’t fast paced like you’d expect from modern wrestling, but that doesn’t mean it was bad. I just expected a little more of a frenetic pace considering the show is only 2 hours long. Daniels focused on Fletcher’s neck, doing a little technical wrestling overall, and slowing down the fast paced offense of Fletcher. It wasn’t bad, smart move from the veteran. Fletcher got a win with a hammerlock piledriver out of seemingly nowhere, which was nice.

Matt Sydal defeated Zack Clayton

A fast paced, quick bout of a match. This was under five minutes, mind you. There was a little back and forth, but it was a fast paced match that ended in a meteora, and that was that. Less than five minutes folks. Not exactly much to write about.

Dralistico defeated Willie Mack

The match started with all Dralistico getting into action, and throwing his body around. A lot of high flying moves were had at first. However, Willie Mack would turn things around and show off some moves of his own, including some interesting moments where he was doing some high flying. After some  help from Jose, a low blow, and a knee, Willie Mack would get the win. Not a bad match, but not a great one either.

Willow Nightingale defeated Rachael Ellering in the NJPW Strong Championship Match

Ellering did a good job of showing off her offense against Willow, but she wasn’t going to win t his one. Willow as champ is strong, and she has some interesting moves to go through her opponents. She reminds me a little of Bull Nakano in the way that she can dominate at times. This was a little back and forth, but it wasn’t meant to be for Ellering. Good match even if it wasn’t too long.

The Mogul Embassy defeated Cheeseburger, Eli Isom, Marcus Kross

Another fast match, under five minutes, and not too bad. It was fast moving, with a great deal of focus on each participant getting some quick moves in. Of course, the trio that was just thrown together would fall to the Mogul Embassy.  The Mogul Embassy dominated a great deal of the match, and once again tour through their opponents. There’s a reason why they are the trios champs.

Mercedes Martinez defeated Vertvixen

Another short one folks, less than 5 minutes of action, and really just a simple match. This was a little back and forth, with a few moves from each woman. They threw down some sweet moves, including a blue thunder bomb that was crisp, and a nice submission move to end the match. A good match overall, even if it wasn’t too long overall.

Lee Moriarty defeated Griff Garrison

This was mostly Griff Garrison getting all the offense. He was beating up Lee left and right, getting some good amount of offense in, but it was Lee Moriarty with a roll up, I kid you not, and the win. This was a short match, and it really was nothing to write about. Skippable if you ask me.

Kiera Hogan defeated Robyn Renegade

Robyn Renegade had a good showing against Kiera Hogan. There was a bit of back and forth, but with such a short match, it was hard to really get into it. Renegade did a good deal of the offense, but it was Hogan that would get the win here. Not bad.

After the match Athena showed up with a kendo stick and tried to jump Hogan. This was fun, Hogan would get the upper hand though, and boom, kendo stick breaks.

The Dark Order defeated Shane Taylor and The Work Horsemen

I was surprised that this wasn’t one sided. It actually had some good back and forth overall. The Dark Order would get the win, but it wasn’t easy for them. The other team had a great deal of offense, and some tandem work, making it interesting to see. This was a fun match, with a lot of attention against the Dark Order. They weren’t getting their best foot forward, even though they would turn things around and would win, it wasn’t an easy brawl for them.

Action Andretti, AR Fox, and Darius Martin defeated The Trustbusters

A back and forth affair, with some good overall wrestling, but nothing that stood out too much for me. I was impressed by Sonny Kiss’ offense though, and outside of that, it was just ok overall. I didn’t hate it, but it was shorter than I would have liked. Around 6 minutes of action and that’s it. Action Andretti, AR Fox and Darius Martin would get the win here, and that was that.

The Kingdom defeated El Cobarde and El Dragon

The lucha libre guys were impressive. They are good, and swift overall. They definitely fought hard, and was nice to see them go through the steps of lucha style. The Kingdom was getting beat a lot, but would comeback and hit a few nice moves including tandem moments to get the victory. The Kingdom would get the victory, and the crowd would go mild. Not a great match, but it had some fun overall.

Rey Fenix defeated Gravity

The main even went a little longer than the rest of the card. I liked that overall. This was one hell of a lucha libre matchup. It was pure lucha style, with a lot of high flying moves, and some impressive reversals and counters. Swift, and to the point, Rey Fenix would get the win, but Gravity was pushing the laws of sorts, as he was flying through the air, and also doing some good submissions too. Fun match, lots of great moments, and something that you should check out. Rey Fenix with the win, but wow, what a match.

Overall Thoughts

The crowd could’ve been better They were ok at times, but they were not as loud as I’d have hoped. Other than that, this was a long bit of wrestling for only having 2 hours. They packed a lot into a short span, but that means that many of the matches were quick and under 5 minutes. The main even was only about 10 minutes or so, so that gives you an idea of how long these matches were. The final match was great, but other than that, I wouldn’t go out of my way to see this.

AEW Dynamite 6/7/2023 Results and Review

AEW Dynamite 6/7/2023 Results and Review

I thought for sure I didn’t have anything to review today, but then I remembered that I had to watch AEW Dynamite. Not that anyone is reading my writing, but I wanted to drop in and once again review what is going on with AEW Dynamite, and the latest and greatest from the company that puts on good wrestling, regardless of what an empty arena says.

Orange Cassidy defeated Swerve Strickland in the AEW International Title Match

Once again we open the show with Orange Cassidy, and this time he defends against Swerve Strickland, and his record is 14 and 0 for the year. He’s defended the title 23 times, and is still going. Everything you could want in a match was found in this back and forth limit pushing match. I was impressed with Swerve’s push forward, and Cassidy’s reversals. This was a great match, and perhaps the best one to see this week. The House Call was hit, but Swerve didn’t get the pinfall, as Cassidy kept pushing. Orange rolled over Swerve, pulled the tights, and got the win overall. A great opener, no doubt, had fun, great stuff here.

The lights went out, and when they came back on it was Sting and Darby Allin! They helped Orange fend off a beat down after the match.

Blackpool Combat Club defeated CHAOS

CHAOS started this match fast, bringing the fight right to Blackpool Combat Club. I was impressed witih how fast this one started, and we even got a nice superplex in the early goings of the match. There was a frenetic pace with this match, and the Best Friends were doing very well against the BCC. Nice back and forth throughout the match, but with CHAOS throwing down some offense. There was a lot of back and forth, good stuff, with pacing that never truly slowed down. I loved how it worked out. I loved it, great fun here. The BCC won this one, and dis so in dominant fashion towards the end.

MJF came out and talked a bit, and even talked with Adam Cole. I liked this, and we should see the next competitor for MJF to win over.

JungleHook defeated La Faccion Ingobernable in a Texas Tornado Match

This was a fight between two teams. I found it to be fun to watch. The Texas Tornado rules made for an interesting match, with both teams fighting to get control. One set of guys were outside of the ring while the other two were in the ring, and there was a lot of back and forth. It was a fight, a brawl at times, with little to no wrestling to speak of, and it was interesting to see. Nothing was wasted here, as they just brawled and really fought to make a hardcore match out of this one. There was a sick table spot, a DDT on a table, and just a great deal action. Jungle Boy got the win with a submission, and wow, what a match to see. Great action, fun stuff, just great in my book.

Konosuke Takeshita defeated Damon Ace

Less than 2 minutes overall. This was a squash of sorts, a burial even. Not much to see here, skip it, I didn’t really feel like saying much else.

Kris Statlander defeated Anna Jay AS in the AEW TBS Title match

Only one women’s match tonight? Fine with me. Statlander did not roll over through Anna Jay here. The competitor in Anna Jay pushed the limits overall. She had a lot of offense against Statlander, and looked good against the champ. Statlander did some fighting back too, but she was definitely not making quick work of Anna Jay. I was impressed with how much offense was given from Jay. A beautiful tombstone piledriver later, and Kris Statlander would win this one.

Jay White defeated Ricky Starks

This thing started on the ramp with a lot of brawling. The two just embroiled in rivalry, fought one another with punches flying right away. This was a slower moving match, which isn’t a bad thing, but I definitely noticed that the pace had slowed down. The match featured a good bit of brawling over technical wrestling. It was a match where both men got the upper hand here and there, driving some good moves and constant brawling. This was a hard hitting battle, and in the end Jay White was able to put away Ricky Starks.

Overall Thoughts

A good overall show, with just a little bit of a lull. It was a good night for those that are looking for quality wrestling. There was a lot of wrestling here, and some great moments. The main event delivered, but so did the majority of the matches, with the exception of one. I liked this night of wrestling and am impressed with how the AEW company keeps moving with quality shows.

WWE NXT 6/6/23 Results and Review

WWE NXT 6/6/23 Results and Review

WWE NXT time! I had a rough day at work, and just wanted to get moving forward, and well, things picked up with the show, so let’s see how it all went down.

Baron Corbin came to the show, and told someone to hit his music. He then came out and addressed the crowd. Out came, Dragonov and wants a piece of him. Then out came Trick Williams and started to brawl with Corbin, throwing him out of the ring.

The Schism defeated Diamond Mine in a six man mixed tag team match

A strong opening match for NXT, with both teams isolating pieces of one another’s team. There were some tandem moves here, and some nice shots to the outside as well. There were some stellar moments, including one hell of a suplex handoff! Delayed suplex aside, there were a variety of moments that made this a good match overall. These wo teams are just great, well oiled machines, and turned out well if you ask me. Good match, good back and forth, a nice opener overall. Quick tags, good moves, fast pacing, what else could you ask for in a six man tag?

Blair Davenport defeated Dani Palmer

Got 3 minutes? Well that’s how much they gave these two women. It seems like NXT gives their women one step forward at times, and then one step backward. This wasn’t a great match, but it wasn’t the worst things I’ve seen either. Davenport was mostly dominant here, and the match was a showcase of her talent more than Dani Palmer.

Baron Corbin defeated Trick Williams

I’m not a huge Corbin fan, and I haven’t seen a lot from Trick Williams that I could remember. This match wasn’t half bad, it had a good flow, back and forth action, and some showcase of athleticism from both men. Corbin did most of his moves, but he didn’t just dominate, though he had a lot of attention against Williams. Williams didn’t back down either, he fought hard to get this win, but he just couldn’t do it. End of Days was hit and Corbin gets the win in a not-so bad match.

Mustafa Ali defeated Joe Gacy

Got another 3 minutes or so? Then you have time to see this quick match that featured Mustafa Ali and Joe Gacy. It wasn’t a complete squash, there was a little back and forth, but Gacy wasn’t going to win this one and we all knew it. Mustafa Ali would get the win with a nice 450 splash from the top. A quick match, with nothing really hitting too grand for me.

After the match, Gacy’s crew ran in and tried to beat up Mustafa Ali, but were thwarted.

Eddy Thorpe defeated Damon Kemp

Two guys I had no idea were even on NXT. I never saw these two, so it was interesting to see them work. This was another short match, under 5 minutes, and adequate. It had a good deal of back and forth. Damon Kemp had this match sewn up for a great deal of time. It was Thorpe with a nice suplex pin combination that would win the match, but Damon’s foot was on the ropes. Oh well, too bad so sad, right? Lol

Scrypts defeated Dabba-Kato

Less than 3 minutes! Yes, oh man, we once again get a little taste of wrestling. I hate that they shove stuff like this into the show, but that’s my two cents. Scrypts barely got any major offense in, although he didn’t just get buried. It was a short match, but it was Dabba-Kato that would dominate a good portion of this match. Axiom showed up and distracted Dabba-Kato, and eventually Scrypts got the pinfall victory with a nice roll up. Then Dabba-Kato beat up Axiom and Scrypts before leaving the ring.

Thea Hail won a NXT Women’s Title Number One Contender Battle Royal

There was a bit of sloppy wrestling in this one. I laughed a bit as the event started, and it was laughable at the starting point. Things picked up though, as there were some moments of action, and short term alliances. Thea Hail would get the win, but not before she was outside of the ring for a while. This was a fun little match, with not a lot to really write about. Hail got celebrated with a bunch of extras.

Bron Breaker was interviewed in the parking lot and he called out Seth Rollins! No joke.

Overall Thoughts

A weak NXT event, but it wasn’t horrible. I liked about half of the night, and the rest was just filler. I enjoyed this somewhat, and think that there is a great deal more to come from NXT. I wouldn’t recommend this episode if you’re tight on time, you’re not missing a ton. The main event was fun, and there was a little bit of fun to be had with the matches, but not extreme. I’ll be back for more reviews later. I’m going to get a burger and fries.

NJPW Dominion 2023 Results and Review

NJPW Dominion

NJPW was live from Osaka, Japan and had an attendance of 7,040 people and was live on 6/4. I didn’t get to catch up with it until now, and wanted to review it because of course I’m a fan of pro wrestling and have time on my hands, so I wanted to drop in and say what’s up.

Will Ospreay defeated Lance Archer

I’ve seen Will Ospreay before but I don’t remember a lot of Lance Archer matches. This match was hard hitting, but it wasn’t without some interesting maneuvers throughout. There was a lot of slams, and flying around the ring from both men. Lance Archer is impressive as a big man that can fly. Ospreay is known for his high flying moves, and he did a few here, fast as lightning mind you. Even though Ospreay was smaller, he was able to hit Archer with some stellar moves. There were some nice near falls as Archer kept hitting big moves, but it was Ospreay that got the victory. A great opener, smart and cunning, good hits, great moves, fun overall.

Los Ingobernables de Japon defeated Just 5 Guys in an 8 Man Tag

There’s a lot of action to try and comprehend with this match. There were a mix of moves, fast paced action, and lots of back and forth. This broke down several times into a brawl at times, and the ref kept  having to get control over the match. Los ingobernables really put the boots to the 5 Guys, and I found them to be fascinating overall. This was a fun match, although hard to keep up with all the action moving forward. I liked it a lot, and definitely think it was a great display from 8 top guys on the NJPW roster.

Catch 22 (Francesco Akira and TJP) defeated Intergalactic Jet Setters (Kevin Knight and Kushida)

A fast paced affair was had here, and it was fun to watch. Catch 22 were flying all over the ring, and outside of it to boot. The Jet Setters were good too, Kushida is impressive to me. He moves so fast, and Kevin Knight was good too, throwing down some great moves including one incredible drop kick with height. Catch 22 though was too much, and their team work is tandem, in stereo and just fun to watch. I haven’t seen a pair so in sync in a long time, and they definitely pushed things through to a fun match, even if it wasn’t too long.

Zack Sabre Jr. defeated Jeff Cobb in the NJPW World Television Title Match

Jeff Cobb is a beast. He was able to throw around Zack Sabre Jr. throughout this match at various times. Zack had to fight from below, and really put on a technical showcase, which he did. He’s one of the best technical wrestlers in the world, and it showed here with a lot of reversals and submission moves. However, Cobb kept powering through many of the options, but even though he had the easier time in some moments, Zack Sabre Jr. was able to defeat him. Sabre did a move that ended in a crucifix for the pinfall victory, and it was really cool to see.

Bishamon defeated House of Torture, and United Empire in a three way tornado match for the IWGP Tag team / NJPW strong openweight tag team titles

There was a lot of frenetic action in this match. A three way tornado match basically means everyone is fighting all at once, and it was fun overall. This was more of a hard hitting, strong style match. There were some moves, brawling, and just overall harder hitting moments than the previous matches. I found this to be a little change of pace for the night, and just didn’t think it was that great. Yeah, it was ok, and there were moments that made me like it, but something was missing throughout, and perhaps it just was the change of pace. There were some good moves, and tandem wrestling at times too, but it was lacking a little. Bishamon won the match, and it wasn’t terrible, just different I guess.

David Finlay defeated El Phantasmo in the Never Openweight Title Match

Another strong match. Finlay and Phantasmo put each other through the ringer in this one. Solid back and forth action, with some nice lucha style elements at times, and some technical wrestling too. The two put their best foot forward in this match, and it was a fun battle to see unfold. It didn’t favor any one person, this was truly divided evenly, but Finlay had a little extra in the tank, with a solid performance. The announcers said it was dominant, but I didn’t think so, Phantasmo put up a good fight here.

Hiromu Takahashi defeated Master Wato in the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Title Match

Fans of Takahashi will no doubt love the performance put on by the champion. He really did fly around the ring, and put a lot of action into effect. Takahashi seemed poised to get this one easily, but Wato did turn the tables a few times, and things looked tough for the champion. I haven’t seen a lot of Takahashi matches, so I was impressed with his speed and precision throughout the match. Wato put some work in here, especially some technical wrestling and submissions, which was interesting to see. Takahashi had to drop his opponent twice with the timebomb to win, and it was quite good. Great match!

Chaos (Kazuchika Okada, Tomohiro Ishii) and Hiroshi Tanahashi defeated The Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Casstagnoli, Jon Moxley) and Shota Umino

This match had a good mix of modern wrestling, strong style, and Japanese wrestling as well. The Blackpool boys did well here, and they really shined against Chaos and Tanahashi. This was a back and forth battle, and somewhat slow at times. There were rest holds at times, and submission moves, but you’ll find that the hard hitting balance was there, making this a fun match to see. There was a lot of hard hits, and some quality moments, with Chaos and Tanahashi picking up the victory.

Sanada defeated Yota Tsuji in the IWGP World Heavyweight Title Match

The main event was featuring two guys I haven’t seen work before. The match was a solid Japanese style match, with a great deal of back and forth. There was a focus on submissions, rest holds, and the occasional high spot. Sanada was definitely impressive to me, he was technical, versus Tsuji that wasn’t as tech forward. I mean, I type that, and I recall some major top rope moves from both. A solid ender to a good event, with a lot of action to speak of, and not really sure how to top the pure wrestling stylings that NJPW brings forth.

Overall Thoughts

For the purist, this was great. I loved the majority of wrestling that was on this show, and it really did push things forward for the company. While I can appreciate wrestling in all forms, I found that the NJPW product has a little extra focus on the wrestling rather than stories, but then again, I don’t speak Japanese so maybe I’m just missing that aspect. Either way, this was a good night of wrestling and I recommend it to anyone that loves pro wrestling.

WWE Monday Night Raw 6/6/23 Results and Review

WWE Monday Night Raw 6/6

Monday Night Raw came and went, and honestly, I was surprised by some of it. I actually invested in watching it through the whole show, and stayed up very late afterwards too. Here are my thoughts regarding the night of wrestling and talking overall.

Becky Lynch defeated Sonya Deville

This match went over ten minutes, and it told a good story. Lynch didn’t win this without a fight, and Deville did a good job fighting back against Lynch’s push. I was impressed that this was the opening bout, and the WWE actually let it play out. Lynch was distracted by Trish Stratus at one point, but that didn’t matter, because she was able to get the win here.

Gunther defeated Kevin Owens

One of the best matches I’ve seen on RAW in a long time. This was a fight overall, and both men went back and forth fighting one another. Gunter hit hard, and Owens didn’t back down, the two exchanged near falls, and some heavy hits, power moves, and more. Gunter would end up getting the win, but this match got some decent time, and was definitely one of the matches of the night for me.

Ronda Rousey and Shayna Bayzler defeated Katana Chance and Kayden Carter

These new women were quite amazing. They are high flyers, and they work so well in tandem. Ronda and Shayna had their hands full in this one, and it wasn’t a straight beat down. Yes, they would win, but they had to sell for some high flying offense, and fast paced movements. I was impressed by the newcomers to RAW, and you should be too.

Ricochet vs. Shinsuke Nakamura

This was a fun back and forth match, but it was interrupted by Bronson Reed and the match was thrown out. This was good though, I loved the back and forth from the two heavy hitters. Ricochet is impressive as always and Nakamura was great too, I liked this a lot even though it was interrupted by Nakamura.

Zoey Stark defeated Natalya

Well, this wasn’t even given 5 minutes, and once again Natalya gets buried. Ok, not a complete burial, but she is definitely not getting long matches, and well, I don’t know what they are doing with her. I expected more, but Stark won this in a barely ok match.

Seth Rollins defeated Damian Priest in the WWE World Heavyweight Title Match

This was a star of a match overall. It featured some high flying, fast paced action, and Priest was looking like a star here. Rollins did a great deal of work, but Priest was throwing everything at him overall. Finn Balor showed up at one point, and got knocked down for his trouble. Priest was mad at him though, and that could be a sign of cracks in the Judgment Day. Seth gets the win after a 20 minute match, which was a frenetic, good overall match.

Overall Thoughts

This was a good overall RAW. I was excited for it, and watched the whole thing, through to the end without watching the replay on HULU. I was thrilled with some of the matches, and loved two of them very much. This was a great night of wrestling if you ask me, even though there was MIZ TV, and talking in the opening segment. Miz got knocked out for his troubles, lol, good night of wrestling if you ask me.
