Morning from Adelaide. Thanks for the support. I have been trying to figure out how to share my thoughts on the various shows. I have not been writing about NXT right now as I feel it’s gotten a little slow, and stale in a way. NXT has been setting up for their premiere on the CW. With titles on the line, I will cover the show next week.
Randy Orton having a chat with Cody Rhodes about his teaming with Roman. (I have read that Cody could be taken out and replaced by the return of Jey Uso.) Kevin Owens is out to join Cody and Randy in the ring. Kevin removed Cody from the equation, demanding a tag match with Solo/Jacob.
**Match — Bayley facing Naomi for the right to meet Nia Jax at Bad Blood for the Smackdown Women’s title. (I have read that the title might change hands, to Tiffany) I am also waiting for Charlotte to return, I want to see a match between Tiffany and Charlotte. It should be a good match. It was a dog fight, but Bayley will be facing Nia at Bad Blood.
**Match — Andrade facing Carmel Hayes in their ongoing feud. In the back, Carmelo blindsided L.A. Knight, which won’t sit well with him. Andrade leads the series 3 wins to 2 wins. I can’t get over how well-matched these two are, they give it all they have when in the ring. Hayes needs to stop being a show-off and getting his head in the game. L.A. Knight came out to go after Hayes but that opened the door for Hayes to steal the win. The series tied at 3 wins each. I am not sure how long they can keep this going but it’s been good matches so far.
A.J. Styles returns next week when the show is in Nashville. Truth be told I have not missed A.J., and I can’t wait for him to retire. IMO, he comes across as being so full of himself. Nashville is the final show before Bad Blood.
**Match — Tag match between Kevin Owens/Randy Orton facing Jacob Fatu/Solo Sikoa. Randy asks Cody to keep an eye on things, and only help out if the numbers change. Cody tried to talk with Kevin but that has not happened as of yet. Randy just took out Solo/Jacob with numerous drops on the announcer’s table. The match did fall apart with Solo/Jacob stealing the win. As the show went off the air, Kevin was screaming at Cody. They have been careful with the storyline.
