WWE Raw 11-2-26 - Page vs. Gable IC Title

 


Raw is on 2 hours early, so cool - I get to knock this show out given that my shift got me home at like 6:45PM. Roman came out and put the ones up and called out 946 and then Sami says no one remembers Roman at WM 38, which is accurate and HE'S THE GODDAMN WWE CHAMPION! They ramble on forever and yeah they're facing on Saturday okay whatever. IC Title time with Gable against the guy who has lost 40+ matches, who should win it and yet...shouldn't. I like Gable's Miami Vice-ish singlet and a diving headbutt meets knees for 2.


Chaos theory gets 2.9! Twisted Grin hits for 2.9! Avalanche powerslam by Page gets 2.9 and a sunset bomb into a stack and an ankle lock! Exposed buckle hits and the Ego Plex wins it. 946-Bloodline recap before a Judgment Day women's trio match against Iyo, Tiffy, and Chelsea. They have a pretty sloppy match before Liv wins with Oblivion on Chelsea. 


Cena is out in new grey gear and black jorts - so basically looking exactly like wrestler Cena. 12/14 is the Cena Classic AT DISNEY WORLD! There will be 2 Raws - one live from Perth and a taped one for the Classic. There will be a new Never Seen Classic belt as well and it's a spinner that looks better than the OG spinner. Voting for the classic or something is on Club WWE and WHO is in the classic!? Cody is the first invitee. Orton is out to chat about the stip match and fill folks in. 


Jade and the baddies insult Bayley and now it's time for the Vision in a trios against Penta, JeVon, and Lee. Good back and forth and the 28MPH spear beats JeVon. Keys and Solo are out for the main event and have a fun hoss battle. Keys reminds me so much of a modern-day Scott Norton. Sky high gets 2 for Keys and the Uso splash hits but the 946 attacks before a spike for a DQ. Bloodline and 946 staredown for the War Games hype video before Keys and Roman brawl.


Keys is downed by Roman's punches but saved by CRUZ MONTANA!? Holy shit! Cruz lays out Roman and they needed a talker and they have one and that man is making main event money after not even wrestling on the NXT PLE. Fantastic stuff and far better than spinning his wheels there and now he's laying out Roman, talking shit to Roman and Keys lays him out with the ULTIMATE SPINEBUSTER.


LOL AND THEN SAMI ATTACKS ROMAN WITH THE HELLUVA KICK! Roman has put THREE PEOPLE over tonight alone - fantastic usage of him.

AEW Dynamite 10-28-26 Fright Night

 


It's almost Halloween time and AEW does have the second-best themed name you can give a show - nothing can top Halloween Havoc, but this is close and we've got Perse vs. Aminata and Fletcher vs. Perry on tap alongside Darby vs. Alexander and FTR vs. the Guns. I could see a TNT Title change here. Mox and Garcia face The Gut to open things up. The Cut's new logo reminds me of The Band's in TNA.



Mox vs. White starts up and they're definitely going for that for the Continental and Mox gets the driver on Finlay before White stomps him free of a triangle. Bladerunner to Danny wins it faction brawling sets up Anarchy in the Arena for Full Gear. Fletcher vs. Perry is up and Fletcher dominates until a low-pe by Perry and a flip dive is turned into an apron bomb by Fletcher! Corner kick and the high angle brainbuster gets 2.9! Snaretrap is on! Avalanche rana from Perry turned into a powermb...no rana first! Avalanche brainbuster...misses but it's a KO and Fletcher talks about beating Perry, Cope, and Ospreay and he and Knight will be tag champs and he cuts this killer promo on Davis and Doyle's shoulders. 





Malenko narrates a Blood and Guts video! New Level is out to talk the trios Texas death match for the PPV. Swerve takes out Bandido backstage and covers his face with his hair before they get Texas Death. DCF is backstage and Okada hypes up FAMILY! FTR vs. Guns is up and they have a decent little match before a flash cradle gets the win for the Guns and FTR attacks. Britt is an old tyme coach with Perse backstage and Britt is Ms. Trunchbul from Matilda. Okay then. MY SHADOW KNOWS MY STORY and he wants Andrade's gold and wil go through Sydal on Saturday. AND OH MY GOD DRAGUNOV! 



Marina vs. Rachel Armstrong is up and the mother's milk ends it. Marina tells her to stop being a pussy and Mone tells her that she isn't one and slaps her to a "you fucked up" chant and the Cut attacks Mox and Claudio fights everyone off until the odds overwhelm him. Josh vs. Darby is up and Josh gets a cool Body Vice modification with his hands locked in an S grip. Coffin drop to the floor but JOSH CATCHES HIM FOR A FLIP GERMAN! Darby wraps him in the skirt and a low-pe hits! IT'S STEVE is dressed as a clown and beats up RPG Vice! Ankle lock but DARBY GETS THE LAST SUPPER OUT OF IT TO WIN!


Mortos vs. Dragunov is up for Collision! TBS Title time and it's a stiff affair before Britt hits a beltshot and a Perse moonsault gets 2 BUT OFF WITH HER HEAD ENDS IT AND WE GOT A NEW CHAMP! The babyface locker room is out for her! Cool moment and the perfect timing too with Aminata hugely over right before the finish.

AEW Dynamite 10-21-26 - Dragunov Debut

 


It's a pretty loaded lineup with Dragunov debuting against Bailey and Cope and Ospreay facing ProtoJet, and the Bucks against Davis and Doyle in an eliminator. And that opens the show up! Davis and Doyle just truck them! Avalanche in the barricade by Davis, and a powerbomb THROUGH A TABLE after the first one to Nick! DOUBLE SNAP POWERSLAM HITS! COUNT TO THREE HITS and another! A THIRD PILEDRIVER HITS and Nick is bearhugged by Doyle and that's ballgame! WOW that is how you get guys over!


PPV recap and Cope is out for the Ospreay tag. Jeez what a loaded first hour. Double Impact dropkick gets 2 for the heels and Kyle poses before Callis steals the desk by saying that if Excalibur looked like Kyle, he wouldn't need to wear a mask to protect others. Knight hits a run-up Superman forearm on the floor to Ospreay and Cope hits a Killswitch to Kyle! CATCHING SPEAR TO KNIGHT! Spear misses in the corner AND HE HITS OKADA'S BELT and the brainbuster wins it! Darby, Steven, and the Bucks make a save!


Swerve vertebreakers a jobber to win. Orange and Jay White beat Yuta and Danny in a fun mid-card tag with Jay winning with the bladerunner. Swerve demands a rematch for the belts at Full Gear and Hanger is cool with it. Renee and Mone are out and THE DEATH RIDERS THEME HITS and MARINA IS UP NEXT BABY! "DON'T BE A PUSSY!" Mox vs. Roddy is up and I don't think there's much Marina likes more than Roddy getting beaten up! HE'S A BACKBREAKER'Y guy according to Taz and THE STRONG HOLD IS ON! RNC ENDS IT! This was fun! The Dogs attack Roddy and Mox backs them off AND THEN FINLAY FLIPS HIM OFF AND THEY BEAT HIM DOWN! CONNORS SPEARS Gabe - good - they closed the loop on that alignment there.


AND THE BANG BANG GANG TAKE OUT THE DEATH RIDERS TOO! EVEN CLAUDIO IS TAKEN OUT! 310 COUNTERED WITH AN UPPERCUT AND they take him down with a gang attack. Tire iron shot by Connors to Claudio trying to swing Jay! The Divine Dominion and Triangle of Madness beat up Wrathlander and the Birds backstage. Justin Roberts lets everyone know that YOU SHOULD RESPECT THE PRODIGY NICK WAYNE! In a new NICK WAYNE BEAT CHRIS JERICHO shirt. "Nick WAYYNE!' guys pissing Taz off for a shoot- so that should be his preferred chant now 








He does the bit TWICE and Jericho is out with the mid-life crisis blonde hair dye. Jericho says that this is the TURNING POINT OF NICK WAYNE and boy that's sure better than the Genesis of McGullicutty and tells him NOT TO FUCK IT UP! Well that's the learning lesson in life. FTR-Guns recap. 
 

Britt and Perse are here for commentary as Maya vs. Aminata hits for a title shot. OFF WITH HER HEAD and Aminata faces Perse at Fright Night next week. Woo Rascalz hype video on Dynamite! Myron vs. Swerve is set up and Match 2 is Saturday and 3 is on Fright Night. DCF vs. Bucks, Cope, Darby, Borden, and Ospreay! Bailey vs. Dragunov is up BUT FIRST Joe says that he beat Darby, Ospreay and that title belongs to him and there's no Bowens here. Bailey and Dragunov just beat the everloving shit out of each other with hard chops, round kicks and stomps. Bridging Tiger suplex gets 2.5 for Ilja! Diving senton from Dragunov gets 2! D-Bomb countered by an upkick and a pump kick! Lariat to the leg D-BOMB TO THE LEG AND THE D-BOMB HITS!

WWE Raw 10-19-26


 

Joe Tess narration over the 946 ROAMING AROUND CORRIDORS! Sami is out on Raw to hype the Crown Jewel Title match. Roman is out and hugs Sami before Sami is a cocky asshole and Penta is out for an MK 3 versus screen pose with Roman before facing Breakker. Press turned into a DDT by Penta before a Penta driver gets 2.5. Vision is out and a mid-air Destroyer is met with a mid-air spear for 2.5. JeVon prevents Theory from using the case and he takes out Breakker with it and PENTA WINS WITH A DESTROYER!? 


Chelsea and Iyo are out to face Roxy and Raquel and they do a bunch of not much until Liv gets involved BUT IT BACKFIRES and Iyo cradles Raquel to win. 946 lets everyone know no one's safe. Well duh. Tess says Bloodline isn't here. Okay wait so the Bloodline isn't here, 946 is, and they aren't attacking Roman THE WORLD CHAMPION why?





JD vs. Hendry is up and Hendry looks miserable. Great hype graphic for JD, who is getting more over with this while Hendry is getting under. Goofy comedy with the Funko guy and Dom and Hendry gets a baseball slide to Dom. Flying headram-style headbutt wins it for JD. Lyra does crazy shit backstage. Lola Vice vs. Lyra is next and they just do a lot of nothing until a wacky submission by Lyra.





Lyra eats a cool mid-air backfist for 2.5. Bayley distraction and MIA hits flush and wins it. Lyra asks what she has to do to end this and Bayley tells her - no DQ. Tess hypes up MICRO DRAMAS! Their thing is shot in portrait and landscape thankfully. Becky wants a title shot and counters Pearce's "no one's fighting" with Steph hurt with THAT'S YOUR JOB TO MAKE MATCHES! Well she's right. 




Rey vs. Gable vs. Lee is up and MY GOD HOW IS REY SO GOOD!? He looked shot 16 years ago in WWE and he's better now. Rey does a crazy dive off the top to the floor! Double 619s and Rey gets 2.9 off a frog splash! Dragon Lee is taken out with a DDT and Gable beats Rey, who is pissed at losing. Page attacks Rey and Gable and Cass beats up Lee. A really distracting woman with MAGA face is behind the announcers and I'm sure she's a treat trying to return something.




Usos arrive with weapons and 946 surrounds the ring but Solo attacks Keys and Hayes. Keys calls out Roman, who saunters out to a "you fucked up" chant at Keys. Okay that's funny. Bloodline clears the ring and stands tall to set up War Games in November. They've built that up well - it's a shame it's WWE War Games and not JCP but oh well. IC Title scene would have been more interesting had Rey won, even if Gable winning is "better" in the sense of how many people are in the mix.

Trios 2/3 falls is up and ICE FEARS HANGMAN is dead center. Daybreak wins the first fall for the champs. Swerve stomp gets 2.5 and the Deadeye hits Swerve, but New Level pulls him out.
