Image
Continuing the build-up to the Biggest Party of The Summer, Raw's go-home show, emanating from Boston, was nothing short of stunning. With PPV teases and huge match-ups already in place, we were treated to a spectacle of the first Big-4 PPV, masquerading as a TV show. What went down last night? Where does Summerslam stand with all the match-ups from the red brand? Let's have a look. Results: #1 Contender's Match: Sasha Banks defeated Nia Jax. R-Truth vs. Elias ended in a No-Contest. Cruiserweight Championship: Akira Tozawa defeats Neville (C). Bray Wyatt defeated Finn Balor. Mickie James defeated Emma. The Hardy Boyz and Jason Jordan defeated The Miz and The Miztourage. The Fist Bump (Finally!) Raw was kicked-off by Dena Ambrose, addressing his issues and the recent proceeding between him and his former Shield brother, Seth Rollins. Both Rollins and Ambrose tried their best to address the elephant in the room. They tried to understand why they wa...

Raw Review (11/07/2017)

Going ahead from an explosive Great Balls of Fire PPV, Monday-night Raw kept the momentum alive. Considerable story-lines, magnified intensity and juicy scoops lay in the wake of a successful Raw-exclusive PPV. Revolving around three major angles, Raw went one-up than its less-appreciated shows. Here's looking into what went down. Credits: WWE.com Big Cass (Kickoff): Fresh off the demolition of his former brother-turned-obstacle, Enzo Amore, Big Cass was welcome with resonating boos all around the arena. He has clearly delved much deeper into his heel persona and the heat he is receiving due to his betrayal of Enzo Amore is the legitimization of his character. As he began to address the WWE Universe, he gloated in the glory of cementing his transition into a singles career. He also stated that now he wants to focus on the main-event scene and become a threat for the Universal Championship. He claimed that there is not one wrestler in the roster who can touch his 7-fo...

Great Balls of Fire: Complete match-card and Early Predictions

Image
WWE's ambitious PPV, "Great Balls of Fire", is ready to set ablaze TV viewership for the company this Sunday. Ridiculed for its controversial name and initial logo, the PPV has turned out to have an exciting match-card that can turn this B-show into an easy A.  Image Source: youtube.com Here's looking into the match-card and my early predictions for the PPV: Neville vs. Akira Tozawa (Cruiserweight Championship Match) These two have been steadily building up to this PPV. Neville, as always, has ruled the Cruiserweight division and looks in wonderful touch lately. It will possibly be another clinical performance by him, the lone shining star of the deteriorating division. On the other hand, Tozawa too has been gaining momentum with Titus by his side. Ever since signing up for Titus Worldwide, Tozawa has been given the deserved push in WWE's experiment to establish a storied rivalry between two superstars in the division.  Tozawa looks good...
