RAW in Columbus, Ohio

In my hometown of Columbus, Alexa Bliss is also from Columbus.

Night of Champions airs live in Australia at 2:30 am Sunday morning for me. I will watch it as soon as I get set up at my desk.

Cole, Corey Graves, and Alicia Taylor are taking care of announcing and ring announcing duties as always.

L.A. Knight is out indefinitely after the attack from Braun and Bronson last week.

Seth Rollins and his merry band of bullies are on the way to the ring. (That is what I call them.) Seth, with the normal, I’m better than you, and it will be my way or the highway.

Braun Brekker is facing Penta in singles action, but this won’t end well for Penta, I have a feeling. Penta had his moment, but Braun was just too strong for him in the end. Seth told Penta to stay out of his way.

Jade Cargill is on her way to the ring to face Roxanne Perez for the right to face Asuka in the finals. It has to be Jade winning. Sure, Roxy has put the miles in and all, but I think it’s not her time. (I prefer Roxy as a baby face) Roxy has no clue how strong Jade really is. Good, Jade needed to win this. Roxy pushed her, but in the end, Roxy’s frustrations got the better of her. It’s going to be an interesting match; this could go either way. I can’t pick a winner.

Dom requested time with Jackie Redmond, but the Universe kept booing, so he couldn’t really say what he wanted. Apparently, he has bruised ribs and is not medically cleared to face A.J. Styles at Night of Champions.

Gunther is on his way to the ring. He will face Goldberg on July 12th at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Gunther is having a temper tantrum.

Bayley is on her way to the ring for a title match with Becky Lynch for the Women’s Intercontinental Title. The winner of this match will be heading to Evolution. (Bayley gives Cole a hard time, but she shared that Cole would text her while she was away to check on her.) I am a fan of Becky, but not of Heel Becky. Becky is going after the arm that she injured, which took out Bayley for WrestleMania. This has been an extremely good match; they are giving it their all. Becky tried to bury Bayley, but Lyra came to the rescue. I can see this becoming a triple-threat match at Evolution.

Raquel is in the ring, demanding that Rhea come to the ring for the beating she deserves, according to Raquel. Roxy out to try and help Raquel. This won’t sit well with Rhea.

The match I have been waiting for, Jey Uso facing Cody Rhodes for the right to meet Randy Orton in the finals of the King of the Ring. A respectful handshake between the two. This should be a great match. It has been an even match, but strong. The match was brilliant, the boys pulled everything out and even some new stuff, but it was Cody with the win.
