bayley and bianca belair feud starting up seen backstage

kevin owens vs apollo crews for the intercontinental championship. crew wins with help of comander azeez

it was throwbak smackdown so old retro look all around.

show starts with the tribal chief roman reignzz, the promo was good and hey hey out comes jimmy uso, jeys bro who was out with a knee injury since an year is back. so the famly is complete with roman as the chief or is it ?

cesaro comes out and interrupts the reunion after which seth comes out bashing cesaro and a match unfolds. if cesaro wins he get the title match at backlash.

cesaro and seth match was good. the distraction and kick to seth made him lose making cesaro the winner and making roman angry at jimmy as he just thwarted his plan

ruby riott vs carmella, it was an ok match carmella won

bayley promo was fine too.

domnick and rey vs ziggler and roodes, mysterio quickly turned a win at the last moment and took the win for the team

tamina vs reginald, lol this match was just showing reggies escape abilities and stuff, impressive hes very light on his feet , tamina and nia get ambushed later on, match was a no contest as DQ

10 man tag match was good. corbins team took the win.

later on roman was out and he gave an ultimatum to jimmy for what he did earlier, jimmy was walking back and wasn't hearing any of it until cesaro comes up behind roman and slams him, jey goes to the rescue but gets slammed by cesaro too and that moment jimmy comes to jeys aid but also gets slammed by cesaro. so this could be something,

first kick off show

sheamus vs ricochet a non title match, the match was good. ricochet really gave sheamus a bit of a tough time but in the end sheamus won, though after ricochet did made fun of his attire

the main show

raw womens tag team match, rhea ripley vs asuka vs charlotte, the match was good all three participants were eager to go for the title. rhea being a bit at the backfoot as she was leaning to make the seasoned players fight it out and thats exactly what she did and how she won, took the win from under charlottes hand

the dirty dawgs vs rey mysterio, before the match domnicik was attacked and was unable to compete at start but later near the middle dominick showed up and particicpated with his father rey, the match was pretty good and the unbelieveable happened, the father son duo won the tag champs for the first time in history wow

miz vs damien priest was lol match, lumberjacks were zombies and well a bit of an adverstisement for the movie army of the dead batistas promo etc.. damien priest won and miz fell to the zombies appetite haha

bianca vs bayley for the smackdown womens championship. another good one here, bianca retained ofcourse, her reign is just starting

wwe championship. strowman vs drew vs bobby, the match was real tough between the three. strowman pummelled both of em but the both of em came back and with a temporary alliance beat on strowman as he alone was too much for one of them alone. bobby stole the win from mcintyre as he lay possum near the end and came for the pin

roman reigns vs cesaro for the universal championship, hands down the best match of the NIGHT. roman told jey to hold back this time no one at romans side and he was all on his own, the slow pacing suddenly picked up and by the end it was too good. roman picked the win and that too without the need of any help from his cousin jey uso. the TRUE TRIBAL CHIEF is here and here to stay, after the match jey shows up with the ceremony of the tribal chief and suddenly seth rollins shows upand starts beating an already defeated and almost uncoscious cesaro. hmm

show opened up with lashley coming out and mvp introducing him and all that, promo cut short lashley throws an open challenge for later on the show

than it was styles vs elias, the match was fine, elias won but after the match omos and elias had a bit of a eye to eye but elias ran

garza vs gulak was another ok match, this time instead of stuffing him with the flower i the pants, garza after winning stuffed it in his mouth

some backstage drama between rkbros and new day led to a kofi vs randy match, kofi stole the win by distraction from xavier and both randy and riddle weren't impressed

natalya and tamina vs shayna and nia rematch for the tag team championships. natalya and tamina won with a little help from alexa bliss's doll lily.

sheamus vs ricochet was a good one, both atheletes were on point and great stuff, sheamus won but ricochet had tremendous respect

asuka vs charlotte, again a great match but with that few segments blanking out with charlottes wardrobe malfunction happening a little too much it felt weird but match was indeed good. asuka took the win with a little help from rhea

damien priest vs morrison this time. the lumberjacks were real people this time. damien won

open challenge so out comes lashley who will come out to challenge him and its KOFI, well the match was about to begin but the twist is that its an open challenge but a non title match bummer, anyways match was good and in the end with the help of mcintyre kofi took the win

kofi vs mcintyre, good match but the ending with bobby interfering was bad. so match was DQ for both

nikki vs rhea was an ok impromptu match in the backstage, rhea had to beat rnikki in under 2 minutes but could not. nikki won via timer count out

than it was charlotte vs asuka match, the match was good both were competing at ppv level almost, at the last second charlotte pulled a quick pin to take the win

riddle vs xavier woods, man this was a good one too. riddle honing skills from randy and homage to him with an RKO to xaiver and took the win

natalya and tamina vs shayna and nia for the womens tag team championship match, the match was ok,this rivarly should finally end i would say, with reginald intereference yet again which cost shayna the titles and natalya took the win and retained the tag championships for the team

nakamura vs gable another OK match here but nakamuras entrance with boogs is good

smackdown tagteam championship match between rey and dominick vs the wild dawgs, the match was a one sided battle as rey was injured backstage so dominick took it upon himself to fight for his dad and himself in the ring, he held his until at the last moment rey came out and that distraction led to dominick pulling a quick pin on roodes and taking the win for the family and retaining the championships. soon after the usos came out and they were ready for next week to battle rey and dominick for the tag belts

this week it was randy vs xavier woods, the match was good and randy this time borrowed the finisher of riddle as riddle borrowed his rko last week, bond is building between riddle and randy ohh yes

shayna vs reginald, yes this match was set up last week, shayna was all out to get reginald but reginald didnt hold back this week and without nias help pulled a fast pin on shayna ofcourse with alexas pal caused a distraction duringthe match for shayna.

sheamus vs ricochet, sheamus won this one but humbertos interruption caused a sheamus vs humberto match up which led to humberto pulling a a quick win on sheamus again this week. sheamus got a bloody nose as well during the match

naomi and lana vs dana and mandy, a decent match and ringside were natalya and tamina, dana and mandy took the win

aj styles and omos vs jackson and elias, the match was fine until elias went of and jackson had to take on both styles and omos himself. aj and omos won

mcintyre vs kofi, winner faces bobby at the ppv, the match was great, both superstars gave it their best and well mcintyre came on top. at the end both shook hands for respect but out comes bobby shining his belt at their faces.

well the tribal chief roman opened up the show, came out usos and well it was time for the tag team championship facing rey and dominick.

the match was good though the end was bizzare, jimmy had his hand up but the ref counted to 3, so there was a rematch schedule later on the show for this match, for now rey and dominick won

carmella vs liv morgan, it was a decent match, carmella won

bayley again trolling bianca, mindgames and all that laugh

corbin vs nakamura, once again corbin won but the crown still went with nakamura haha

apollo vs kevin owens for the intercontinental championship, ko was attacked backstage by azeez badly before the match, the match itself was fine even with being attacked backstage KO gave it his best but in the end crews took the win and retained the championship

rematch, usos vs the mysterios, now this match was kind of shortlived, the match started and soon afterwards 10minutes or so roman interrupted which made the match a DQ, so this was kinda akward where this story is heading but lets see
