WWE Raw Reviews recaps and reactions The Legend killer reaper Shawn Michaels, Big Show, Christian, and Ric Flair were out to talk about Clash of Champions. Shawn said that McIntyre didn’t know they were going to be there but said he’d understand if he was mad. McIntyre came out and spoke nicely about each man in the ring, and then issued an open challenge for Raw’s roster who have yet to face him for the WWE title. Orton then appeared on the tron and said that he would be facing McIntyre again for the title because he’s Randy Orton and he gets what he wants. As for the other men, they would be getting what’s coming to them. He then left the building. But we all know leaving the building means absolutely nothing in WWE. Attempts at nostalgia rarely pop me, and this one was no different. Michaels and Flair have been all over WWE television as of late and I don’t really care about Big Show. I don’t mind Christian, though. They don’t trot him out 5 times a year to promote something so seeing him puts a smile on my face. In the main event, Dolph Ziggler got the returning Bobby Roode a match for the WWE title. I was so incredibly not into this match that I happened to find Alexa Bliss tweeting about what happened on this show with Murphy, and found that more entertaining. After McIntyre won, a cloaked figure with a janitor’s outfit entered the Legends Room with a chair and night vision goggles. Surprise! It was Orton. Shocking? I know. Here’s why I didn’t care about the match - Drew has spent a majority of his title reign facing guys who didn’t deserve title shots. This was no different in my mind. Okay yes this time it was an “open challenge” so that’s an out for WWE. It’s not an out for me. After last night’s incredible booking with the Roman Reigns/Jey Uso family stuff, we deserve better. I don’t give a shit about Bobby Roode. Give me more compelling stuff for Raw. Raw is full of repetitive shit. I don’t need repetitive shit and then not compelling shit on top of that. Orton’s part at the end was dastardly, and that I liked. I have wanted a draft for a while, and I’m finally going to get it. However I’m going to talk about why the timing of it is bad. Romeo and Juliet They did a spot where Murphy had to leave his phone laying on a box so Rollins could take it. On the King’s Court, Aalyah Mysterio said that she was still hurt by Rey’s words last week, but she said that anyone who comes in contact with Seth is bad and there’s something wrong with them. Cue Seth on the tron, and he said that Aalyah wasn’t being truthful. He somehow got a screenshot of text between Murphy and Aalyah to production lightning quick. Aalyah ran to the back and Murphy confronted Seth, but Dominik tackled him and a match between the two was announced for later. What a match that was. It had some shades of Murphy and Ali matches from 205 live. Dominik grabbed a kendo stick and was about to hit Murphy, but Aalyah came out and tried to stop him. Both she and Murphy tried to tell him it wasn’t what he thought, but Murphy took advantage of Dom’s back turned to him and scored a victory. It was a weird looking pin, which has been happening as of late in WWE. He chased Murphy off and then told his sister she really is naive, and she slapped him. I’m enjoying Dominik and Murphy matches, but I know that adding the sister only continues this feud until Hell in a Cell, at least. Gosh it’s just been too long now. This needs to end at Hell in a Cell. Asuka def. Zelina Vega… again - Vega put a nice stretch submission on Asuka early into the match. Vega was smart to keep targeting the left arm like last night at Clash. They kept going back and forth and Vega got a near fall before Asuka put her foot on the bottom rope at the last moment. Vega didn’t do enough though, and got another Asuka Lock for her troubles. I’m not a fan of losers getting immediate rematches. While Zelina did pretty well here, it would have made more sense to me if Asuka just laughed her off last night and held off on doing a rematch until the next pay-per-view. Very rarely do I get into these types of automatic rematches. Keith Lee def. Andrade - Andrade started by telling Zelina off as she started crying and walked to the back. He issued an open challenge of his own and Keith Lee answered. Andrade was able to answer much of Lee’s offense, while Lee was able to ragdoll him around, and deliver a wicked Spirit Bomb to get the win. This was a quick match and I actually enjoyed it. I had a thought that maybe they’d repair the relationship between Zelina and Andrade while Garza is out injured but nope they went full jerk with it. Looks like Andrade has himself a singles career until Garza returns, and I’m happy about it. Crews, Ali, and Ricochet def. The Hurt Business - MVP said he didn’t know what was going through Crews’ mind as he keeps deciding to step to the Hurt Business. (I’d like to know too!) HI MUSTAFA ALI! Everyone brawled until the lights started flickering and RETRIBUTION’s logo appeared all over the place. Everyone died for us, essentially. Big spots and at one point Ricochet dove onto Benjamin and looked like Benjamin’s shoulder went right into Ric’s spine. Ow. But Ali was able to get the victory for his team pinning MVP, which I believe he also did the last time they were in the ring together. Unfortunately, the babyfaces winning means that this feud will also be continuing. Another feud that needs to end by Hell in a Cell. Aleister Black gets disqualified by a stupid referee - New music alert for Aleister Black. It’s a bit more screamo but I’ll reserve judgement until I hear it in my headphones. Can someone tell me why Aleister hates Kevin Owens so much? These guys are violent with each other and I do appreciate that. The ending was ridiculously stupid and Drake Wuertz is an idiot. (Not just in kayfabe.) So this feud will keep on going! Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke def. Lana and Natalya - Latalya were complaining about not being given the tag titles since Shayna and Nia are out. Adam Pearce came out and said that they’d get a match between them and the new Raw signees. Mandy hit a frightening kick that almost could have led to an injury to Lana before she got the win. Let’s see what happens with this new tag team. By the way - there’s a draft in two weeks but they’re already signing new people? What’s the point of two draft shows then? R-Truth def. Akira Tozawa and Drew Gulak - Before this match, they had all of these guys win the 24/7 title off of each other, and then immediately announced this triple threat. Odd. Truth is now 41 time 24/7 champion. Gulak and Tozawa worked with each other and against each other for the whole match. Truth hit Gulak with the Attitude Adjustment to win which popped me. So, let me explain why the draft timing is bad. Hell in a Cell is Oct. 25. The draft is Oct. 9 and Oct. 12. That leaves very little time between that Monday’s draft to Hell in a Cell. Why can’t they just let Hell in a Cell decisively end feuds, and then do the draft? Makes me think not much drafting is going to happen and we’ll still see Rollins and Mysterios and Andrade/Garza and Street Profits when Garza returns. And holy shit get Apollo and Ricochet away from The Hurt Business. It’s been done to death, revived, and killed again. We’re in for a wild October |

WWE clash of champions reviews recaps and reactions Oh my God. We may have just witnessed the greatest storytelling since Kofi Kingston’s rise and coronation at WrestleMania 35. If WWE could get it so right like this more frequently, that would be wonderful! Roman Reigns is a bully. Jey Uso is every young man stepping up and finally taking on that mean jerk in the schoolyard, and fighting valiantly to prove that no matter what, he’s leaving with his head held high because he didn’t back down. Every single person played their role perfectly. Everyone. Paul Heyman did not introduce Reigns, like he would normally do with Lesnar. Fantastic. Reigns started trash talking Uso early on, tossing him around and repeating that Jey is and never will be on his level. Jey was able to get some offense in, with some hard slaps and elbows. Then Reigns dominated for a bit and it seemed like it was over, but Jey kept fighting. Reigns grew increasingly frustrated that Jey wouldn’t just take his payday and lay down. But then, the momentum suddenly shifted, and Jey was dominating. He threw everything he had at him, and the splash connected! Right at the 2.9, Reigns kicked out, but the way he did completely changed the game in his favor. He low-blowed Jey without Charles Robinson seeing it. The smirk on his face afterward, that smug bastard. And he made sure to put the hurt on his cousin. Robinson was nearly pleading with Reigns to stop, and Reigns whipped back at him and said its his WWE and he does what he wants, so he better leave him alone or he’ll find himself without a job. Robinson was perfect. The way he looked at Reigns like he didn’t know who he was anymore. Chills. And if that wasn’t enough, Jimmy Uso limped down with the towel and he was going to throw it, but Jey pleaded with him not to. Roman kept beating down on Jey, wanting him to acknowledge him as the tribal chief of the family, but Jey never said it. The beating kept coming and Jimmy finally threw in the towel and dove into the ring to protect his brother. Reigns told Heyman to get the red lei that Jey wore to the ring to place over his neck as he was announced as the winner. Holy shit. I am still stunned and still have goosebumps thinking about how unbelievably perfect all of this was. It was captivating storytelling. Roman bullied Jey, Jey valiantly fought without quitting, Jimmy gave Roman what he wanted, called him the tribal chief, and had such passion for his brother and anger towards his cousin, Robinson sold Roman’s vitriol so well, and Heyman’s shocked face as Roman’s arm was raised put the cherry on top. Roman Reigns is the top heel of wrestling. It’s not just his yard - it’s his world. No, it’s his universe. Bayley had it coming Bayley came out and said that Nikki Cross was unable to wrestle. She felt bad because she wanted to continue proving that Nikki can’t cut it against her, and she announced an open challenge for the title. After 5 seconds she closed the door and demanded the ref raise her hand in victory. Then Asuka came out! And she came out as if she hadn’t had a match literally 25 minutes prior, which was a bit strange. So they had a pretty good match but it was so rushed and random that I didn’t even get a chance to consume it. It was over relatively quickly anyway, as Bayley grabbed a chair and the referee disqualified her. AND THEN SASHA BANKS SLAMMED A CHAIR INTO HER BACK! They brawled around and Bayley grabbed a kendo stick and another chair, but Sasha was able to get the better of her and it scared Bayley off. That moment was perfect. Now would I have had her come back so soon? No. However, I like that what they’re doing by bringing her back so soon, is selling that she’s a tough woman. She sold the neck injury fantastically while beating down Bayley. Bayley also did a great job selling that Sasha is her biggest threat to losing the gold. For selling Sasha as her biggest threat, I dig it. Ghosts of Orton’s past McIntyre started this match off really well, a real sense of urgency to hurt Orton. Orton was able to get control and hit the draping DDT quickly. He was about to punt kick McIntyre, but Big Show grabbed his foot and chokeslammed him into the announce table. McIntyre was then able to take back control and got Orton to the ambulance, but then decided to play with some toys from the side of the ambulance instead of trying to get Orton into the back. It cost him, as Orton ended up not in the back of the ambulance and they brawled to the back. And then Christian appeared and attacked Orton. Back out in the arena, they ended up on top of the ambulance and then Shawn Michaels superkicked Orton off the ambulance. McIntyre was finally able to put Orton into the ambulance, but gave him a punt kick for good measure. Then, arguably the best part of all of this - Ric Flair was the ambulance driver and drove Orton out of the arena. I did not like Big Show’s involvement at first, because it wasn’t yet known what was going to be happening. I can’t say that I really enjoyed all of Orton’s ghosts interfering, especially since not once right after any of those interferences was Drew able to win. Orton was still able to get back at Drew, and that hurt the match for me. What’s next for both men? Perhaps a few weeks off for Orton, which is well deserved after his stellar 2020 so far. Who challenges Drew next? There is a Limitless person waiting in the wings! I would like to see a decisive finish to a Drew and Keith Lee match. Sami Zayn def. AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy - What an opening match! I wanted Sami Zayn to be the winner, and it set such a positive tone for the evening. Jeff hit his standard ladder match Swanton to send Sami crashing through a ladder. Styles at one point was attacking both men which was smart to try and not have any interference when he tried to go for the titles. But Sami… Sami was the smartest man of all. He brought handcuffs to the game. He handcuffed Jeff’s earlobe to a ladder, but when he tried handcuffing Styles to the rope, Styles got smart and stopped it. What he didn’t think was that Sami would handcuff him to Sami! While Styles was busy trying to get Jeff away from him, Sami took the key out and unlocked his side and attached Styles to the ladder too. He was free to climb up and win. I loved this so much and said on Friday that Sami would benefit the most from winning. This was the right call. Street Profits def. Andrade and Angel Garza - This was a really good match, which had an ending that no one saw coming. It looked like the Spanish Fly that made me legitimately jump out of my chair seemed to cause some sort of an injury to Garza and the ref threw up the X. As a result, what was going to be a kick out ended up being the winning pin for Dawkins. Commentary made it a point to make it look like the referee messed up. Now, if Garza is legitimately hurt, that sucks for him because there’s no doubt in my mind he was going to be tag champ. That means that if Garza isn’t injured, we’re getting yet another match between these teams. Before the match, Tom made it a point to acknowledge that these two teams have been facing each other on and off since WrestleMania. That’s not a good thing! Many feuds on this show have been going on for months. It makes Raw not that much of an exciting show. Again, with an injury it’s different, but hopefully the next match between them ends up being the last. Bobby Lashley def. Apollo Crews - It felt Crews got more offense in against Lashley than he has in previous matches. Lashley hit a really great superplex off the top rope but Crews was able to kick out and do a nice standing Shooting Star Press and Frog Splash. Crews was not able to get out of the Full Nelson though. So… can this feud be done now? Apollo needs to move on. Apollo/Ricochet/Cedric and Hurt Business with Cedric as well has been one of Raw’s never ending circles since before SummerSlam. Asuka def. Zelina Vega - Vega was smart to tackle the left arm of Asuka as that is part of her deadly arsenal - the Asuka-Lock. Asuka is so great at selling an injury. Vega did well but didn’t injure the arm enough, as Asuka was still able to use her submission. It was a pretty good match, and Zelina being able to show off her wrestling skills always makes for a fun time for me. What happened after however, means that we’re getting more of this. The standard attack after the match to keep the program going. Expecting a rematch tomorrow night on Raw. 24/7 title shenanigans - Little Jimmy led R-Truth to the referee’s room and Drew Gulak took advantage and pinned him to win. Later, Drew was being interviewed and Truth won it back. I was hoping for Drew to bring the 24/7 title over to SmackDown and have some new stuff go on with that title, but Truth seems to be nothing without it. Truth will never not be in the 24/7 title picture, until he retires. Maybe even further than that. Clash of Champions was a really fun show. The last minute changes were unfortunate but necessary in COVID-19 times. There would have been one title change on this show if it were not for Garza’s potential injury. When wrestling is great, it’s great. I am so incredibly happy with how Roman vs. Jey went that I’m going to watch that again right now. I don’t do that very often. A match we all knew the finish to still ended up being one of the best matches I can remember. Going to enjoy this high before RETRIBUTION (absent from this show for some reason) does dumb stuff tomorrow night on Raw. Grade: A+ |
