Pretty great show and matches 

 

I am pretty excited to see Belair go to WrestleMania. Now, we wait to see who she chooses to face at WrestleMania. I am hopeful for Sasha Banks. I think it is also awesome Edge won and is going to WrestleMania to probably face Roman Reigns I mean spear vs. spear would be neat but I think Drew deserves an better opponent this time around. Also, who else was hopeful for Rollins or even Daniel Bryan to win the Rumble? Like, Reigns vs. Rollins at Mania would of been awesome not saying it still isn’t possible but that would of been the key to Mania tho. I enjoyed the show and look forward to seeing who both Belair and Edge choose to face at WrestleMania. 

 

WWE RAW

Raw opens with Drew McIntyre.

McIntyre discussed his recovery from COVID-19  and put over Goldberg, noting that Goldberg has defeated every challenger he has come back and challenged. He vowed to put an end to the WCW icon’s newest streak.

The Miz and John Morrison come out to interrupt.

They teased Miz cashing in Money in the Bank Sunday night.

Alexa’s Playground 

 

Ahead of her Raw women’s title match against Asuka later in the show, Alexa Bliss joined us for a remote edition of Alexa’s Playground and recapped the last few weeks in her feud with Randy Orton. She said she could not wait to see “him” again, a reference to The Fiend, before revealing that she doesn’t feel like playing this week.

The camera shot a close up and, with the magic of pre-production, flashed bits and pieces of the Fiend’s face with a voice-over of “let me in” while Bliss stared menacingly into the camera.

 

 

 

Gauntlet Match for a WWE United States Title Shot: Riddle vs. The Hurt Business

The Hurt Business won 

 

Asuka vs. Alexis Bliss

 

Asuka approaches the corner but Bliss’ music plays, stopping her in her tracks. Bliss has transformed back into her usual look, with her normal attire and everything. Asuka is stunned.

Bliss is crying as she gets up from the corner. She looks terrified now, and disoriented. Asuka charges and Bliss sends her face-first into the turnbuckle after side-stepping. Bliss looks to be in some sort of trance now. Bliss walks into the corner and faces the turnbuckle as the lights start going down in the ThunderDome. A nursery rhyme tune plays. The lights come up and the darker version of Bliss is back, turned upside down in the corner like Bray Wyatt would.

Bliss approaches Asuka. Asuka swings but Bliss keeps blocking her strikes with ease. Asuka with a big knee to the face to stagger Bliss, but that’s it. Asuka takes Bliss down for the Asuka Lock but Bliss resists on the mat. Bliss rips Asuka’s grip away, then applies the Mandible Claw out of nowhere. Randy Orton suddenly appears behind Bliss in the middle of the ring as the crowd boos. Bliss slowly turns around and Orton drops her with the RKO. The boos get louder as Orton slowly gets back to his feet. Bliss is laid out in the middle of the ring now. The final RAW before the Royal Rumble goes off the air with Orton standing over Bliss.

I thought it was an pretty decent PPV and matches.

 

 

RAW

Randy Orton kicked off RAW and said that at Hell in a Cell he proved that he is the best. He went on about how everyone thinks he got his way because of his family name and that everything has been handed to him but he proved that he is still the best and deserves to be called the Legend.

 

Alexa Bliss interrupted him and made her entrance but stayed silent. Randy asked where The Fiend was and she said that 'he could be here' before the lights went red and the screeching began.

 

The Fiend was a no-show but instead, Drew McIntyre took him down and demanded his rematch before walking out. Miz and Morrison rushed the ring as McIntyre walked out and Miz tried to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase.

Drew returned and wiped out both Miz and Morrison, tossing them outside before saying that no one will beat Orton for the WWE Title before him.

 

Backstage on RAW, The Miz was furious for losing his title shot and made fun of Drew, calling him jealous. He and Morrison challenged Drew to a handicap match later tonight.

The Hurt Business was out on RAW and after threatening Lashley's future Survivor Series opponent Sami Zayn, they said they were going after the RAW Tag champs, the New Day, Kofi and Woods came out and basically called out the Hurt Business for being a little too old, except for Cedric.

Great show and matches 

RAW

Drew McIntyre opens the show.

Drew McIntyre says that he knows that Randy Orton wanted to do a lot to him, but only fractured his jaw, and he is back. 

Drew says that the medical personnel told him to take time off, because he has a non-displaces fracture. However, if he gets hit in the wrong way he could have a displaced fracture and he would have to have his jaw wired shut. As a result, he was told to forfeit the title, but he said no. He said that he would be appearing and facing Randy. 

Drew McIntyre then goes on to announce that he has to face Randy Orton in an Ambulance Match at Clash of Champions. 

Adam Pearce comes out and announces that in case Randy Orton would not be able to compete at Clash of Champions and if Keith Lee can compete tonight, then he gets a match against Drew McIntyre at COC. 

The Street Profits (c) vs Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura (c) in a Champions vs Champions match

Cedric says that he is at his job and he has no friends here. This is his place of business.

He is interrupted by Ricochet and Apollo Crews. They call out Cedric for his betrayal. 

Ricochet vs. Cedric Alexander 

Cedric Alexander won

Everything goes dark in the ring after the win, and Retribution appear on the Titantron. They say that they know what they are and that they are here to change RAW. They say WWE is corrupt and that their time in the Performance Center is not going to lead them to fame, they will show who they are. There are a lot of members, with masked members popping up on the screen. 

Asuka (c) vs. Mickie James for the RAW Women’s Championship 

The referee says that Mickie can no longer continue. The match goes to Asuka. 

Did Mickie get hurt at some point of the match?

The Riott Squad vs. Natalya and Lana

The Riott Squad won

Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler attack Natalya and Lana after the match.

Drew McIntyre vs. Keith Lee 

Out of nowhere, Retribution attack and take out both Lee and McIntyre. 

There are at least 11 members in the ring as they beat down both McIntyre and Lee and then stand tall over them. 

There's no stopping them. 

The Hurt Business had volunteered for security and they make their way out to confront them. 

All four men go down and star to fight. They are overwhelmingly outnumbered, but they are not backing down. They all fight against Retribution and are joined by Lee and McIntyre who hit dual flying dives out of the ring to flatten everyone.

They are the last ones standing tall. 

I vote for an triple threat for the WWE Championship at WWE Clash between McIntyre, Lee & Orton in an Ambulance Match. Of course, unless Orton is unable to complete.

Rating:

70/70

Great show and matches.
