Thoughts on the January 20th Edition of WWE Monday Night RAW on Netflix, Show:
Thoughts: This was a very good episode of Monday Night RAW I love the pacing and the fact it's a 2 Hour and 30 - 35 Minute episode. That's a perfect span for each weekly episode that's why the past two episodes have been very good and entertaining. I really enjoyed the opener with Rey Mysterio & Kofi Kingston. The feud between The New Day and LWO is continuing to grow as tension continue to flare up after the match with Xavier Woods attacking Rey Mysterio. Nia Jax and Bayley had an okay match which was highlighted with Roxanne Perez being in the crowd and after the match with Rhea Ripley coming out to brawl with Nia Jax. Bayley being transferred to RAW is a great decision she did everything she needed to do on SmackDown so she adds more star - power to RAW. Penta had his 2nd WWE Match against "The Brusierweight" Pete Dunne and it was a banger. Pete Dunne was a perfect 2nd Opponent for Penta but I really hope that Pete Dunne gets in the mix with RAW or if he's transferred to SmackDown. I love the ending sequence of this match as it was hard to watch with that extreme backbreaker. Penta is getting that Superstar Treatment and Presentation which I'm very much happy about because he's one of the best Luchadores in History with Místico, Rey Mysterio, and etc. CM Punk cut an amazing promo and took some shots at John Cena, Sami Zayn, and Hulk Hogan it was amazing added more excitement and importance to the Royal Rumble. The Women's Tag Team was okay but man Iyo Sky is amazing, and Zoey Stark in the Tag Team Match looked great. The Main Event Match was very good every - time Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre have a match against each other it's always great. The after the match stuff was very solid. This episode was like last week it was very entertaining. Love the pacing, and like how every episode is 2.5 Hours long. Next week card is looking decent but I'm hoping they add a Penta Match, and a Dragon Lee Match with a Lyra Valkyria Match.
The January 20th, Edition of WWE Monday Night RAW on Netflix Match Ratings:
The Opening Match: Rey Mysterio vs. Kofi Kingston (with Xavier Woods) in a Singles Match - Match Rating - Rey Mysterio is just amazing this was a very fun opener by Rey Mysterio and Kofi Kingston. I thought this was gonna be originally a Tag Team Match with The New Day against Rey Mysterio, and Dragon Lee but I was fine with this singles match. Rey Mysterio got the victory which led to Xavier Woods blind siding him after the match and the LWO came to make the save for Rey Mysterio. I like this feud I really hope this will help out Dragon Lee if he gets involved because I want a big year from him this year because he's a top five talent.
2nd Match: Nia Jax vs. Bayley in a Singles Match - Match Rating: *** -They have good chemistry with one another but this match was okay. I like Roxanne Perez presence in the crowd as she's in a feud with Bayley at this moment of time. I thought the power bomb spot was sick. I think Nia Jax on RAW is cool because she adds an element to the roster. But she got the win and has added momentum for her match at WWE Saturday Night Main Event against Rhea Ripley for the Women's Championship.
3rd Match: Penta vs. Pete Dunne in a Singles Match - Match Rating: ****.25 - Penta has been looking like a Superstar since his arrival to WWE. This match with Pete Dunne was very good. I thought the back and forth action was great, and I was happy Pete Dunne had himself a good match because they could use him in a big spot on Monday Night RAW or move him to SmackDown and build him as a new star or book him in the upper mid - card. I thought the ending sequence of this match was very good Penta gets his 2nd win in WWE now he's 2-0 but I'm excited that he's getting that big push off the gate and the crowd and everyone are enjoying him.
4th Match: Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai & Iyo Sky) vs. Pure Fusion Collective (Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark) (with Sonya Deville) in a Tag Team Match - Match Rating: N/A - The stars of this match was Iyo Sky and Zoey Stark. I really enjoy watching Iyo Sky anytime she's in that ring she makes magic she's really one of one. Zoey Stark had some sick offense like that springboard drop kick. It was an okay tag team match I get they holding Iyo Sky off until she feuds with Rhea Ripley but I can't wait when that program begins.
The Main Event Match: Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre in a Singles Match - Match Rating: ****.25 - I love when Main Event Talent work on the weekly shows. This was a great main event. Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre never ever had a single bad match against each other. I love the story they were telling in the ring the back and forth action was entertaining and it seemed like Drew McIntyre has been frustrated with Seth Rollins because Drew McIntyre is doing what Seth Rollins isn't doing and that's getting back at the people that wronged him which was The Bloodline. Seth Rollins got the win but afterwards Drew McIntyre dismantled even more and berated Seth Rollins. I thought this was fantastic as it added more to this story, and added a new layer to what Drew McIntyre trying to get in Seth Rollins head which is stop caring about everyone else and go attack the ones that done him wrong. As Drew McIntyre was setting up to viciously take out Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn came to fend off Drew McIntyre and try to save Seth Rollins as he was ready to hit his big boot Drew McIntyre got out the way which allowed to connect the big boot to Seth Rollins. It was obviously not intentional but it causes more chaos in this story as Seth Rollins is starting to crack inside and sooner than later he will give in to Drew McIntyre and turn on everyone. This is a great main event, love the story they were telling and more drama going into next week Go - Home Show before the Royal Rumble.
