saw extreme rules horror show

kick off show, kevin owens vs buddy murphy, a good match here. i liked it

smackdown tag team championship tables match
newday vs cesaro and nakamura. while it looked like new day might win this the powerbomb to kofi through two tables was ooof. cesaro and nakamura new champs

smackdown womens championship, nikki vs bayley
well i wasn't expecting much of a change here and so it was as i predicted bayley won

us championship. apollo crews vs mvp.
crews was a no show, so mvp the new champ without any match

eye for an eye match, seth rollins vs rey mysterio.
well this one was a bit of a letdown with not much interference but match itself was good. both rey and seth gave it good. rey lost though at the end

raw womens championship, asuka vs sasha banks
well this one was another good womens match, asuka and sasha really gave it their all . in the end again sasha wins it because of bayley and what a weird end.

wwe championship match, ziggler vs mcintyre
man i thought this was gonna be over soon but ziggler gave mcinyre quite a tough time. mcintyre won but damn it was a grueling match

wyatt and strowman swamp match
another movie-esque match here. this one was good too but i honestly am being tired of these matches like this though with strowman i guess these are better since with big guys matches aren't that good instead movie type are better. so wyatt won yeah. total horror slasher movie type win haha

so randy opened up RAW and he has his viper eyes on mcintyre for the championship now.

viking raiders vs andrade and garza vs ricochet and cedric for the opportunity to have a tag team championship match against street profits. garza and andade won.

baszler vs nia jax segment was good. i liked it. baszler was thrown around by nia haha

dominik mysterio confronted seth and well it didnt as dominick had hoped

mustafa ali vs lashley was fine. ali lost but he alis in the light

asuka vs sasha for the raw womens championship was a goooood match man. asuak lost again due to bayley attacking kairi backstage and distracting asuka but i do see another match for sasha and asuka i think

mcintyre vs ziggler and mcintyre chose xtreme rules as the stipulation and won . good match but this was the start of randy vs mcintyre rivalry as soon as mcintyre won randy gave him the RKO

mcintyre and randy had a good battle of words but mcintyre got the best of randy this time.

sasha vs baszler was disappointing as no one won as asuka interrupted and beat bayley at ringside etc.

dominick mysterio took out seth and murphy. good thing coz samoa was ready to fight too haha

than it was miz tv which was meh segment tbh this time

than it was montez ford vs andrade. montez won

lastly shawn micheals was on raw and he wanted to address the ric flair thing last week and well randy got to shawn as well and while that mcintyre tried to make randy flee but randy in the end got the rko on mcintyretoo

fatal 4 way 24/7 championship match was good. akira tozawa won from truth, shelton and cedric

ruby riot, liv morgan and bianca vs iiconics and zelina vega
bianca and ruby, liv won the match.

arm wrestling match between crews and lashley was funny with mark henry there as the referee for that

Big E vs sheamus, this one was quite good and for things to comes for Big E, he layeth his smacks on sheamus and showed everyone around hes CHAMP material. BIG E Won

matt riddle vs corbin, while though riddle is quite good and corbin and his chemistry is fine the match was just OK, riddle won

womens tag championship match, shayna and nia take on the golden role models, this one was heavy hitting match. nia took alot for the team and shayna closed for the win, that double grapple on sasha and bayley from shayna were ooof. that was it for the golden role models both tapped out to shayna lol. new tag champs shayna and nia.

show started with number 1 qualifier for the triple threat match to see who faces the championship at clash of champions

first up keith lee vs ziggler, it was an easy one lee took the win and is the first contender

asuka wanted a new challenger for her championship match at clash of champions and well who shows up, the six times champion mickie james. well soon after natalya and lana showed up and well that escalated to a litle brawl in the ring between the four and afterwards lana and mickie had a match and micke won

second qualifier for the triple threat match randy vs owens and well kevin owens got a little beatdown by aleister before the match and randy took the win easy

iiconics vs riott squad match with stipulation who ever wins goes for the tag team championship belts and who losses are disbanded and well iiconics lost and are now perhaps going to go their own way

third qualifer for the triple threat, dominick mysterio vs seth rollins and well seth took this win quite clean from dom

the tornado tag between street profits and andrade and garza was good while retribution showed up and started beating all of em, garza and her girl demi ran out even before retribution showed up. andrade and street profits got a beat up in the ring

finally the triple threat match, lee vs randy vs seth. randy and seth quickly schemed to take on lee as a partner but randy being randy is too clever to team up so that was short lived and lee was a monster to both of them luckily for randy as lee bombed seth, the viper slithered in and took the win under lee's hands. randy and mcintyre for the championship match at clash of champions

roman and heyman opened up smackdown and what a great segment this was. Heyman is A grade when it comes to promos !

heavy machinery vs miz and morrison, it was an ok match. machinery or as i say OTIS took the win

womens tag team championship match, nia and shayna take on sasha and bayley, man this match was GREAT. sasha gave it her all to get those titles back but little she could against shayna the queen of spades and the humoungus nia. bayley did little since she had her own title but stakes were high for sasha as she needed the title, the after match was something to see i mean i knew it was coming but this soon. bayley quickly got to smack sasha around and im afraid sasha might just go out fora while now.

the fatal 4 way match to determine who would face roman at clash of champions and ENTER new contender jey uso, yeah romans cousin himself since BIG E got attacked backstage by sheamus and no longer a part of the 4 way a new guy i-e jey took his place. now this match was great. all fighters fighting for that championship belt but i never expected this BUT JEY won. so cousin vs cousin angle here, hmm plus that whole backstage talk with roman and jey. i think somethings up. like romans has something up his sleeve and playing heyman and all that

apollo crews, ricochet and cedric vs the hurt business, during the match cedric turns heel on his allies and goes joining the hur tbusiness. the hurt business is doing pretty good under MVP now.

street profits vs andrade and garza, win was taken by street profits due to garza backing out of the match during but after match tag champions from smackdown come over and challenge street profits next week . nice

soo iiconics no more, peyton royce vs billie kay and peyton won but even after winning had a soft spot for her friend billie

asuka and mickie vs lana and natalya, asuka and mickie won but there are some tensions between the both

keith lee vs randy orton, now this match was going rather fine and randy was struggling alot but at the right end randy finally put an RKO on keith and just as he turned around, CLAYMORE from mcintyre outta nowhere :p so match was DQ and a second claymore to randy this night

backstage while randy was going home another claymore to randy from mcintyre damn man so 3 claymores from mcintyre just as randy did to him past week.

finally it was murphy vs dominick, well this match was fine but later the rey famnily joined in and gave a beating of a life to murphy ... and murphy said he quit in the street fight match
