This is going to be an interesting show as always. I don’t expect belts to change hands but anything can happen.
The return of Randy Orton. I did read today that at one point the Doctors did recommend that he retire. Will be interesting to see how he does.
**This blog will have Spoilers today. **
**MATCH 1 — First War, The cages are dropping. Just a reminder that the war will not officially begin until all 10 are in the cage. The Women are starting the show. Bianca Belair is out first (Team EST won the advantage) Shotzi, Charlotte, and Becky, who will be starting for Team EST. Damage Control came out together. Bayley is on the way to the ring to start for Damage Control. Shotzi is next to the ring, stopping to get ammunition from under the ring. (Dakotai Ki on the outside) Iyo Skye for Damage Control in the ring. Bianca Belair is in the ring and has 2 braids to use tonight. Kari Sane to the cage next. Charlotte is the final member of Team EST. Asuka is at the door, the match will officially start once Asuka is in and the door is closed. (I really hope it’s Team EST for the win. Bayley needs to take down a few pegs. She has become a middle card wrestler in my book) Becky puts Bayley through a table for the win.
***JANUARY 27th is the Royal Rumble in Florida
**MATCH 2 — It’s the Intercontentional Championship match which will see Gunther facing The Miz for the belt. It’s a match that could go either way. Miz will do whatever it takes to win but can Gunther play that dirty. Wondering if Imperium will show up at some point. (I am hoping for the Miz but I have a feeling that Gunther will come out on top) Miz was forced to tap out. It was a good match with no interference from Imperium. Gunther keeps the title
**MATCH 3 — Santos Escobar facing Dragon Lee. (Santo with a heel turn) It was a good match but not long enough in my book.
**MATCH 4 — Zoey Stark facing Rhea Ripley for the RAW Women’s Title. Finally a good match. They both had their moments to shine but it was Rhea with the win. (I was hoping they might pull the trigger tonight but guess they won’t until Wrestlemania. With the Elimination Chamber here in Perth in February, they are keeping the belt on Rhea.)
**MATCH 5– Mens War Games. — Our first is Drew for Judgement Day who have entered the area together. Finn starting for Judgement Day. Cody entered first for the Baby Faces, Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, and Seth Rollins. (I am surprised that management allowed Seth to do this match considering his back) (Randy has still not arrived as of the start) J.D McDonagh and Jey Uso is on the way to help Seth, and Damien on the way to the ring. Sami, joining Seth and Jey. Drew was in the cage taking everything he had out on Jey, Drew made it known that he would target Jey when he joined Judgement Day. Cody Rhodes is on his way to the ring. (it was Cody’s Dad Dusty who created War Games. ) Rhea tried to cash in the Briefcase for Damien but Randy appeared out of nowhere.
The Baby Faces with the win. How great to see Randy back. He looks really good. That was a hell of an RKO by Randy on J.D. when he got thrown off the top of the ring.
OMG just as the show was about to go off, music started. . . CM Punk has returned. (I am in shock right now)
