Looks Like RAW Was Too Busy to Mess Things Up. What a Load Off for SmackDown...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts? Well I hope.   So, RAW didn’t disappoint.   I would have to say it was a solid Go-Home show.   The appearances of note were certainly Triple H and Shawn “HBK” Michaels together again along with the Brothers of Destruction in Dad (Kane) and The UnderTaker.   Now, what I liked here was something that I found lacking with Finn Bálor when they first experimented with unleashing “The Dæmon”.   Granted these gentlemen have more experience but Bálor isn’t a spring chicken.   What Dad and Taker did was based on presentation.   They sold their fantastical entrance and though we know it’s all hocus pocus, they sold it enough that we bought it more or less anyway.   With Bálor, I’m still not buying it but that doesn’t mean it can’t be done.   I don’t want the gimmick dropped but it should be retooled a bit, brought back down to Earth.   The first attempt was great theatrically but I didn’t feel Bálor met the set-up.   Perhaps to start, this alter ego should adher

A Merry Monday to You, Enthusiasts! Don’t let having to turn in the rent get you down.   So, we are in exhibition Go Home territory and will more or less be so until Survivor Series.   Not sure what to expect but we will have a recently toned Shawn Michaels make an appearance to further hype this Super Showdown.   Ronda Rousey is supposed to be around too to box with Ruby Riott.   Good thing it isn’t Brie Bella 😉    Sounds like Bobby Lashley and Kevin Owens are set for a go as well, forget why. There’s also talk of The Shield and it’s only natural to keep stirring the pot with the “Dogs of War” but seeing how The Shield had the upper hand on the way out last week, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Heels get to make a statement of their own going into the Super Showdown.   Without that tension, how do we know who to root for?    We’ll see how they do.   Funny tweets get retweeted and as for Likes/Favorites…we’ll have to see what they offer up.   We should be stingy with ‘em but i

Greetings Enthusiasts! How is this Monday going for you so far?   Well, since we’re in between shows, not sure what to expect for tonight.   They can kinda free for all because the next big deal advertised is the big ol’Super Showdown in Australia.   Since that’s basically exhibition, it doesn’t really have anything to do with what’s generally going on but, when has that ever mattered? In any case, tonight we’ll see how Brie Bella fares against the ornery Ruby Riott.   Chad Gable may continue to get chances to charm alongside Bobby Roode.   Nia Jax gets to see who’s around to toss around.   Elias and Bobby Lashley are still not sure they like each other.   They’ll continue to try and figure it out in the ring.   We’ll also see if The Revival has any mainstream appeal as they battle the Tag Team Title holders in Drew McIntyre & Dolph Ziggler.   Should be entertaining…may get busted up by something…could a Braun Strowman be bored backstage with nothing to do?   ¯\_( ツ )_/¯
