I’m a little behind, but it’s been one of THOSE weeks. We’ve got a lot to talk about, so let’s get into it!
-Kicking off: Seth Rollins
I loved this opening.. the fact that Seth isn’t cleared, but still able to come out and keep things going is nice. I love that they are still pushing for this feud even if the outcome is fully unknown as this point. What did shock me was Brock coming out.. I was like “please… don’t let this happen…” and then.. Oba appeared. I LOVED THIS entire segment. And when Oba picked Brock up… I POPPED SO HARD. This match is going to be insane!
-Original El Grande Americano vs. El Grande Americano
I liked this match itself, but have a feeling this should have ended a little bit ago. However, I can see where it is going. I have a feeling there will be a big match at Mania, and it will all but end it.. where one of the Americano’s is unmasked. But.. we will see.
-Women’s Intercontinental Championship Match: AJ Lee vs. Bayley
This match was SO good! And I loved seeing Bayley on my screen! I know this was pretty much a “filler” match in a way, but I wish I could see more. After the match we did once again see Becky attack AJ Lee.. all but setting up the fact that we are getting another match at Mania.
-Intercontinental Championship Match: Penta vs. Dragon Lee
I loved this match so much! It was so quick, fun, and not to mention that these two work so amazing together. It wasn’t hard to figure out that Penta would retain, but my God I loved it.
-Maxxine Dupri vs. Nattie
I am honestly not sure where they are going with this story line. I feel like it has been such back and forth lately.. and it is going in the same direction every single time. Are they going to have the final match at Mania? A stipulation to go with the match? I would love to see the meaner side of Maxxine.. but we shall see.
-Stephanie Vaquer vs. Raquel Rodriguez
Let me just say that these two work AMAZING together, and they kill it every single time they go at it.. but what is the point? Where are we getting at with the constant matches between the two? Liv didn’t exactly get involved.. so is this going to turn into something of Raquel turning at Mania? It would make a good story tho, I will say.
-CM Punk/Roman Reigns Face to Face
This was good overall! You can tell the tension is high and the match is all but ready. However.. I wasn’t sure about the whole segment seeing that Roman didn’t seemingly respond to Punk talking about Roman’s father who has passed away. There was rumor that Roman was to speak about Larry (who passed away) but did not. Does this have something to do with AJ Lee being there?
Overall: 7.8/10
UP NEXT: Friday Night Smackdown
-Will Tiffy and Giulia go at it for the US Title?
-Women’s Tag Team Title Match– ending in DQ?
-Will The Wyatt Sicks final take back their Lantern?
-More Mania matches announced?
Things are for sure heating up as we are about 4 weeks away until showtime!
until next time
