Tiffany’s Takes: Monday Night RAW (7-15-19)

Tiffany’s Takes digs into WWE Raw: after a shocking Extreme Rules, will Seth Rollins get his rematch?

Tiffany’s Takes digs into WWE Raw: after a shocking Extreme Rules, will Seth Rollins get his rematch?

I will not discuss the new Universal Champion beyond saying that it should never have happened.

Ricochet kicked off the show with a six man 2-out-of-3 Falls tag with the Usos against Bobby Roode and the Revival, for some strange reason. Guess the ‘No Rematch’ thing is back in force because he should be getting a shot at AJ Styles after last night. Well, I guess it’s not over between Ricochet and Styles and it looks like the Good Brothers are getting in on the fun with the Usos. Not sure why Roode stuck his nose in it. I’m guess Ricochet will get a rematch at SummerSlam and the Usos and the Good Brothers will face the Revival. Not sure what Roode will do.

Viking Raiders took on two locals who didn’t have a prayer and got squashed and that was that.

So Drew McIntyre’s response being beaten by Undertaker and Roman Reigns was to pick a fight with Cedric Alexander, who helped Reigns get the better of the Corporation 2.0 last week. Guess ol’ Drew needs to take his impotent rage out on someone. Also, Drew, disembowel and eviscerate mean the same thing. If you’re going to use big words, at least look them up in a dictionary, okay?

Oh. My. God! I expected a squash and got Cedric Alexander PINNING Drew McIntyre 1, 2, 3! That was hilarious!

Did Balor call Shinsuke Nakamura ‘Shitske’? I like that Balor is back in the hunt, even if he’s got to go through Samoa Joe, who was also licking his wounds after losing to Kofi Kingston.

I know a lot of Roman Reigns fans want him to get his rematch against Lesnar since he never lost the title, but I don’t think it’ll happen. Reigns is on SmackDown and WWE has been firm in making sure cross brand title matches don’t end with titles changing hands.

Balor vs Joe was disappointingly quick. Joe got the win but Balor was the last man standing. Also, NOT here for a rehash of the Balor/Wyatt trainwreck from two years ago? Nope, not having it.

Well, it looks like Drake Maverick’s big night is finally going to happen, but since it’s on RAW, it’s probably not going to end in fireworks.

What the hell is going on with the Kanellis storyline? Maria Kanellis is being the pregnant wife from Hell and Mike Kanellis looks like a jackass instead of a badass. He lost to Zack Ryder of all people! There better be an amazing payoff for this because this storyline is annoying.

I’m honestly surprised The Club vs Lucha House Party wasn’t an out and out squash. Maybe it would’ve been if not for Ricochet. Judging from how Kalisto got treated, the Club isn’t feeling too great about being taken to task by luchadors or Ricochet. Look out, RAW.

Seth Rollins has a right to be pissed. He towed the company line and threw Dean Ambrose under the bus and lost the title to a man who had no business being Mr. Money in the Bank. If this is Vince making Seth earn it all over again after what happened in January, he’s a bigger idiot than I think.

You gotta respect Becky Lynch. She had a huge knot on her forehead from Lacey Evans, took an End of Days from Baron Corbin, and she still came out to see who she would be facing at SummerSlam between Alexa Bliss, Naomi, Nattie, and Carmella. The match was really good, but I’m honestly SHOCKED that Nattie won. I figured Bliss would get yet another chance at the title, but that was not the case. It’s Becky Lynch vs Nattie at SummerSlam!

Well, I guess after last night’s embarrassing defeat, Dolph Ziggler had to find SOMEONE to whine to and who better than Miz, who was NOT in the mood for Ziggler’s shit. Looks like another feud from 2016 is being revived.

I’ll give Maverick his due, he really tried to make this wedding consummation romantic, but I think we all know what’s going to happen since it’s on RAW, though I REALLY hope he had a thong between him and that belt. At least it wasn’t coitus interruptus. Also, kudos to Cory Graves for the ‘small package’ punchline.

I gotta admit, I wasn’t stoked about the Top 10 Battle Royal because the ‘Top 10’ seemed to be drawn at random. I could see them picking guys who’d won last night, but then you have Sami Zayn, Randy Orton, Bobby Lashley, Baron Corbin, and Rey Mysterio. I’m not surprised that Seth won, since he’s the only logical choice, I am surprised that Orton was runner up. Guess we should warn Kofi Kingston.

That’s it for Tiffany’s RAW Takes! Tune in tomorrow for SmackDown and 205 Live!

Chris King: Is Brock Lesnar Truly Retired?

Brock Lesnar retired at WWE WrestleMania 42, right? Are we totally sure? Chris King asks…

Brock Lesnar WWE WrestleMania 42 Retirement

Brock Lesnar retired at WWE WrestleMania 42, right? Are we totally sure? Chris King asks…

At WrestleMania 42, ‘The Beast Incarnate’ Brock Lesnar took off his boots and gloves following his loss to Oba Femi. Lesnar has done it all inside of his twenty-four-year career in professional wrestling. He’s a ten-time WWE Champion and former UFC Heavyweight Champion, and he’s one who ended The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania. 

While Lesnar was in the ring, he was visibly overwhelmed with emotion and crying while he thanked the fans in his own way. The Beast even threw up an x to signal to Paul Heyman, his longtime friend and advocate, that this was not scripted and was real. There had been rumors that Lesnar and Oba were supposed to have a series of matches before everything went down at Mania. 

‘The Career Killer’ Gunther was doing Heyman’s bidding as he faced Seth Rollins for a favor. For a while now since Gunther retired Goldberg, John Cena, and AJ Styles, the rumor has been Gunther was set to retire Lesnar in his hometown at this year’s SummerSlam event. There’s been no confirmation if Lesnar is truly retired, but on this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown, we saw Heyman talking with General Manager Nick Aldis. Later that night following Rhodes’ match against the debuting Ricky Saints, Gunther choked out the WWE Champion. Could this be the favor from Heyman? 

I know in the world of professional wrestling we live by the mantra of “never say never,” but what if Lesnar is actually retired and this was WWE’s way of shutting down those rumors about Gunther and Lesnar? What if Gunther’s next program is chasing after the WWE title, and where is Randy Orton at in all of these plans? There are so many questions that need to be answered, hopefully soon!

Chris King: Defend The Intercontinental Championship At Backlash!

With WWE Backlash upon us, Chris King wants to see Penta defend the Intercontinental Championship in Tampa!

Penta WWE Intercontinental Championship WrestleMania 42

With WWE Backlash upon us, Chris King wants to see Penta defend the Intercontinental Championship in Tampa!

This year’s annual Backlash showcase is only a few days away, and while there are many big matches announced, one that definitely should be isn’t on the card. In my opinion, outside of Roman Reigns/Jacob Fatu and Seth Rollins/Bron Breakker, the Intercontinental Championship scene has been stellar over the last month. 

Penta has been an excellent champion, especially after his triumphant title defense in a ladder match against JeVon Evans, Rusev, Dragon Lee, and the Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania 42. Their ladder match at Mania was one of the best that WWE has produced in a while. 

The momentum never stopped, as on the post-Mania episode of Monday Night Raw, ‘All Ego’ Ethan Page made his debut and was quickly inserted into the Intercontinental title scene. Page had a fantastic showing against his longtime NXT rival Evans and picked up a big win in his debut match thanks to an assist from Rusev. 

All Ego immediately joined forces with ‘The Bulgarian Brute’ Rusev, who was also vying for the Intercontinental Title in his own right. On this week’s episode of Raw, Page and Rusev defeated Evans and Penta. All Ego pinned the champion, making a huge statement and putting him one step closer to getting a title shot. For the past few weeks I’ve been anxiously waiting to see if WWE was going to add this incredible fatal four-way match for the Intercontinental Championship, but it hasn’t happened yet. 

As much as the WWE Universe enjoys witnessing great matches on free television, I truly believe all four superstars deserve the chance to showcase their talents on the PLE. While Penta has done a terrific job as the intercontinental champion, it’s time for a fresh face to hold the prestigious title. Page would make a great braggadocious heel that would help elevate the Intercontinental Championship to new heights!
