Welcome to this review of this past Monday’s episode of WWE Raw, right here on Nerdly. Let’s see what went down on this week’s show!
Match #1: Jey Uso & The New Day def. Imperium The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
“Main Event” Jey Uso wanted to tangle with Intercontinental Champion Gunther in the early goings, but The Ring General wanted no part of Uso, playing mind games with “Main Event” Jey. Imperium’s game plan worked to perfection for most of the match, with The Ring General picking off the scraps left behind by Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci. Jey brought his team back to life once he was tagged in, with Gunther continuing to avoid his “Main Event” problem. Eventually, The Ring General was left with no choice but to battle Uso, using vicious chops to drop him. Gunther thought he had the match won following a brutal clothesline,...

#DIY def. Indus Sher – Indus Sher emerged next to face #DIY, with Sanga and Veer making an immediate impact by driving Gargano and Ciampa into the ring post. Gargano was able to stun Veer with a rollup to keep rolling in Tag Team Turmoil.

Welcome to this review of this past Friday’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown, right here on Nerdly. Let’s see what went down on the show… Oh, and no, I’m not including the draft results in this one!
Match #1: The O.C. def. The Viking Raiders The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
With Aj Styles looking on, The O.C. took on The Viking Raiders. Due to being drafted to separate brands, the two teams collided in what could be the last time. Karl Anderson took out a new move, putting Ivar down with the “Brother Me Softly”, as coined by Styles. Ivar flew from up high, colliding with Luke Gallows with an awesome top rope splash. Valhalla proved to be a factor in the match, distracting Gallows before Michin took her out. The O.C. then hit the Magic Killer on Ivar to get the “tres” count.

Match #1: Ricochet def. Sami Zayn The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Ricochet once again got SmackDown off to a hot start, facing off against “The Honorary Uce” Sami Zayn. Ricochet had his work cut out for him as he had nearly all of The Bloodline, including a returned Paul Heyman, at ringside in the corner of Zayn. Logan Paul, however, was in the corner of Ricochet offering him some backup. Ricochet attempted a Standing Moonsault but Zayn got his knees up in time, nearly grabbing a two-count victory in the process. Zayn followed up on this with a Blue Thunder Bomb but Logan Paul distracted the referee, disabling The Master Strategist from earning the win. In the final stages of the match,...

Welcome to this week’s Nxt UK review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and I look like a buffalo with its legs chopped off. This episode has a match or two, so let’s call Kevin Nash to make fun of the whole thing. Hey…their knees aren’t shot. $!@# them! Okay, let’s get to this before Big Sexy hits on the girl from catering and…never mind.
Match #1: Grizzled Young Veterans def. Ashton Smith & Oliver Carter The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Last week, Oliver Carter came forth and volunteered to help Ashton Smith answer a challenge from the first-ever Nxt UK Tag Team Champions, Zack Gibson & James Drake. Noble as that gesture may have been, it wasn’t enough to overcome the tag team precision of a very focused Gibson & Drake on a mission to reclaim their crown, as they put a...

Welcome to this week’s Nxt UK review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have Joaquin Phoenix wearing a green wig and playing with those creepy little girls from The Shining. Who in the hell would play with them? This has been a pretty good week for wrestling, so I suppose the European brand of the WWE is screwed if they blow this. Don’t worry. Nxt UK is still better than Step Brothers 2: Give Me A Kiss, Swishkabob. Okay, let’s rocket the pocket ‘till the locket breaks the socket so why doncha focket?!

Match #1: Imperium (Fabian Aichner & Marcel Barthel) def. The Hunt The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Despite the unorthodox style of The Hunt’s Wild Boar and Primate, Imperium’s Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner defended their sacred mat against their animalistic opponents in Nxt UK’s opening contest, showcasing exquisite tag team precision that culminated with stereo dropkicks and the uppercut into the powerbomb on Wild Boar for the three-count.

Match #1: Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner of Imperium def. Saxon Huxley & Tyson T-Bone The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
In the opening match of this week’s Nxt UK, Imperium’s Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner honored their “sacred” mat in a contest against Saxon Huxley & Tyson T-Bone. Huxley made the critical mistake of failing to see Barthel tag Aichner into the match and continued to battle Barthel. After the legal Aichner used a knee to take out T-Bone on the steel steps outside the ring, he nailed Huxley from behind, and Imperium finished off their prey with an uppercut off the second rope into the powerbomb for the three-count.
