December 14
Let's get to it.
Check, let's get to it.
Twas the (Monday) Night Before TLC, when all through the house. Not a creature was stirring, as no one was in the crowd.
I ain't gonna lie, I like this. It's different.
Unrelated to anything on RAW right now. WWE does a rather humorous holiday video every year.
They put out the new one today.

Not bad
I'm kinda surprised they're doing a 1 on 1 with Riddle and MVP, and a 6 man with Hardy/new Day and the rest of the Hurt Business. Why not just do an 8-man?
Because logic. You know this.Quote:

At least they had Hardy take the L. New Day couldn't take another L leading into (what I'm expecting) an L at TLC.Quote:

TRUTH IS INTERRUPTING AGAIN! And they referenced Main Event, which is a show that does not air in the US.
I miss Andrade and Zelina Vega
That's.... random.Quote:

I'm slightly surprised Miz/Morrison won, but they do need to win something every once in a while, and it was clearly a fluky thing where Lee dominated the match.
FIELD TRIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Andrade? Not so much, Zelina? Hell yeah, absolutely. That chick is fine!Quote:

Mustafa Ali as a heel works. I just wish they let him pick up more wins.
Agreed, but she made her bed and now has to lay in it.Quote:

Hell, Asuka needs a new partner for Sunday... Maybe it's Charlotte.
I'll take Charlotte dominating everything over the neverending Lana vs Nia feud.
Agreed
Well fire does not kill The Fiend.
Only a botched Jackhammer in Saudi Arabia
I'd just take Charlotte dominating everything over just about anything WWE's ladies division has done since Becky left. Bayley/Sasha did a good job of holding people over but WWE sorely misses its mainstream ladies stars.
Bayley vs Sasha was feud of the year.
^ This
It was a great feud but it didn't really start until after September or so. Also them together, as fun as it was, got to be way too much when they were on all 3 shows in 1 week, and on both RAW/Smackdown just about every week.
Also, Bayley vs. Sasha was only on Smackdown.
K, well those two still got my vote.
Fun fact - Drew and 3MB were involved in the WeeLC match between Hornswoggle and El Torito.
Needless to say, he's come a LONG way since then.
To be fair, I am not quite sure this match will be better.Quote:

I was at that PPV. It was better on tv, trust me.
oh I'd guarantee that. Hornswoggle vs. El Torito live is bleh. Commentary and watching on TV made that match.Quote:

It’s the go home show for TLC and that means it is time to really hammer things home for Sunday. In other words, there is a good chance that this show is not going to be all that great or eventful, but commentary will tell us how important Sunday is going to be. Granted it won’t be, but that’s traditional for the December show. Let’s get to it.

At Least That Was Good
It's December 21st. They lit a man on fire last night. AFTER HE ATTACKED A GUY WITH A PICKAXE. How will they top that?
Lets Get To It!
Happy 1st day of winter.
Let's get to it.
We're blessed with royalty to open RAW. Makes sense she's been off TV for 6 months.
Every time Mandy/Dana come out I get pissed that they got rid of a solid entrance song and an awesome entrance song, and replaced it with terrible generic crap.
This is a bad way to open a show
Yup
RAW Legends Night in 2 weeks. HOGAN, Flair, Angle, Beth Phoenix, Torrie Wilson, and many more.
Nice.
Yeah I get having Charlotte out first since we haven't seen her, but 2 of the 6 people involved are Seg-1 caliber, and honestly Asuka is barely there.
But still, you lit a mother fucker on fire last night how do you not lead with that?
Mandy got a big win over Sonya and had momentum from her story with Otis.
Now she's teaming with Dana Brooke because they broke up the one real tag team they have.
1 of 2 real women tag team. DON’T FORGET THE IICONICS!!!Quote:

Oh fuck..... here we go again with Charlotte being all over our screens. I like her but seriously she ain’t that big of a draw like Bayley and Sasha.
Man seeing MVP facing a Hardy and it not being Matt sucks a bit. I still believe their feud is truly underrated.
It sure was entertaining.
It feels like they're coasting through the show and banking on Fiend and Orton to keep viewers interested
In kayfabe, poisoning Montez Ford was a good reason to fire Zelina Vega
I Lol'd.
Ratings are low. I wonder if WWE will put on a better show.

Fans - Why did Retribution go over Ricochet again?

Ugh
Huh I don’t get the reason for this being a tag match when there’s no rules. Or did I miss something???

So we’re coming off Tables, Ladders And Chairs where the Fiend was burned alive to end the show. That’s kind of intense, but it’s cool because he sent out a tweet about twenty minutes later just in case there was any emotional impact built up. Last week’s numbers were an all time disaster and there is a chance we’re in for a shakeup (it’s been long enough since they’ve, ahem, fixed the problems around here) tonight. Let’s get to it.

That's WWE For You
Last night was the best wrestling I've seen all year. The first half of this show was the worst.
December 28
Let's get to it.
They had a tribute card for Luke Harper prior to the show.
Randy Orton is gonna be on Alexa's Playground. That sounds familiar. I really wish Fiend wasn't dead right now as I would want to see how Bray would pay tribute to Luke Harper.
Sheamus is supposedly in a #1 Contender match with Keith Lee. Good. Hopefully this is at the Rumble.
Let's get to it.
I'm thinking Keith Lee's mic skills will hold him back
OK so I guess the title match is for next week. Bleh. I'm guessing whoever wins now the other gets involved next week, and we get a triple threat at the Rumble.
Drew: Lets get this show started off right and do the match right now.
Me: The show already started. We opened with 6 minutes of talking after the opening music video and Drews entrance.
possible
Next week should be really good
Keith Lee wins and is wrestling for the WWE Championship. But he's been buried since his main roster debut.
So I didn't even notice it but Drew opened his promo with "It's Monday. You know what that means".
He pinned Randy Orton clean and people were still saying that lol
So during the match, Byron Saxton was surprised Keith Lee kicked out of White Noise and said no one kicks out of it. Ummm.... the only time people DON'T kick out of it is when Sheamus doesn't go for the pin afterwards.
Gran Metalik is lowkey one of my favorites
So they finally decided to let Miz win something I guess.... I can't see Lucha House Party pick up a win over someone NOT involved in the 24/7 Championship.
He does do the wrestling rather good. Honestly he should be on top on 205 Live instead of jobbing on RAW.Quote:

No lie
AJ/Omos vs. Elias/Ryker.
I'm confused as to who to root for. AJ is a heel, and obviously everyone needs to do anything to support Elias's music but Ryker is just unlikable.
He TOTALLY needs to take a huge bite of his apple, then spit it while wearing a mask....Quote:

I forgot she existed.
well that undefeated streak didn't last much longer....Quote:

Maybe they're gonna get Shayna back into the RAW Womens Championship contention? I hope so.
My client Shayna Baszler conquered Dana Brooke's undefeated streak in 2020!Quote:

I'll be honest....Quote:

Alexa's Playground >>>>>>>> A Moment of Bliss.
Also, Alexa Bliss is just so fucking good in this role.
I'm not a huge Alexa fan, but you're right Trooper.
I hope Bray can resurrect the Funhouse friends...
And I also hope there's a new one name Luke, Brodie, or Jon.
Not a bad idea
So just got in the Dome, and about 30 seconds to a minute ahead.
The only guy involved in this match that isn't a heel is Omos (he hasn't really done anything heelish).
Elias doing shit I've never seen Elias do. He walked the ropes, did a spinning neckbreaker type thing, and he did a TKO.
He's still a heel though. AJ can wrestle as a face which helps, but having no reason to root for him hurts.
He was being a face here, as the Thunderdome producer kinda hinted at that. He wanted energy at the finish for AJ.
Oh nice we're getting to watch the match during the commercial break.
OH SHIT! That DDT was fucking sick!
Really good match
I don't know why the fuck Retribution wasn't DQ'ed or at least ejected from ringside, but that was good.
Dope.
Nia Jax, if she wanted to exploit injuries, should attack Charlottes boobs.
So we all know who is gonna take the Tag Titles off of Asuka Flair. The only question is who will be Lana's partner when she does it?
Spot on sir
This Charlotte/Nia match is sub-par. It feels like Charlotte is trying to shake off ring rust. Understandable considering it's her first singles match.
