Bodeen’s Top 5 Moments: WWE RAW (3/8/21)

Does a new WWE Champion help to reinvigorate the Raw brand? Check out Bodeen’s Top 5!

Published

on

After Bobby Lashley beat The Miz for the WWE Championship last week,  eyes were glued on RAW this week to see what Bobby Lashley’s first actions would be as WWE Champion. Bobby Lashley’s wasn’t just the only big factor heading into RAW as Sheamus and Drew Mcintyre continued their hard-hitting rivalry heading into Fastline.

Unfortanly these were the only 2 factors of RAW that really impressed, as most of the show fell somewhat flat, especially due to a strange series of segments with Shane Mcmahon and Braun Strowman. However, let’s look at the positive side of things and look for the top 5 moments that stood out on RAW this week.

5. Riddle beats Slapjack 

While this segment was nothing special it was still a lot better than the rest of the things we sew on RAW this week. With Mustafa Ali facing Matt Riddle for the United States Championship next week, Riddle would face RETRIBUTION member, Slapjack, with Riddle getting the win over Slapjack in a match that passed the time well.

After the match RETRIBUTION leader, Mustafa Ali would berate Slapjack for losing against Riddle, potentially leading to a breakup between RETRIBUTION  as we have seen Mustafa Ali grown more frustrated due to the failure of his fellow  RETRIBUTION members.

While the feud has come out of nowhere, the match between Riddle and Mustafa Ali is sure to be an amazing showing with both men having a lot of talent between them.

4. Shelton Benjamin and Xavier Woods square off

While it is disappointing that The New Day’s feud with RETRIBUTION died with no real ending, a feud with The New Day and The Hurt Business has a lot of potential with both teams being extremely talented in the ring. We would get a glimpse of this potential as Xavier Woods challenged Shelton Benjamin in a singles match with both men having a solid match with each other.

Shelton Benjamin and Xavier Woods would trade blows against each other in a match that gave RAW a boost, as RAW was starting to feel stale. The match would end after Shelton was distracted by Kofi Kingston outside the ring, giving Xavier Woods the chance to perform a small package to beat Shelton for the win and give The New day Momentum heading to next week.

With The New Day facing The Hurt Business for the RAW Tag Titles next week, it will be exciting to see who comes out on top in what should be a great match to watch.

3. The beginning of Bobby Lashley’s title reign 

After his huge win over The Miz for the WWE Championship, last week on RAW, many eyes were glued to the opening of RAW to see what Bobby Lashley’s first actions as WWE Champion would be. Bobby would cut start the show, by cutting a solid promo about his long journey to become WWE Champion and how he has bounced back from huge setbacks throughout his career to finally become WWE Champion.

Lashley would then waste no time showing his power as WWE Champion as he faced The Miz in a rematch for the WWE Championship. The match between the two men was a solid encounter with The Miz getting some offense in, before eventually losing after Lashley applied The Hurt Lock to win and retain the WWE Championship

Kudos also have to be given to the presentation of Bobby Lashley as WWE Champion. His new entrance was amazing and showed off Lashley as a beast.

2. Randy Orton and AJ Styles main event RAW 

Without a doubt, Randy Orton and AJ Styles have amazing in-ring chemistry together. Every time these two men have faced that have put on a solid encounter with each other, as Orton’s slow style working well with AJ’s more faster-paced style. AJ and Orton would once again deliver a solid match this week on RAW, with Aj getting the win after Alexa Bliss distracted Orton.

In a change of pace, Orton would catch AJ by surprise in the match, hitting him with multiple strikes after weeks of minds games from Alexa Bliss. Styles would later come back in the match hitting a performing a calf crusher only for Randy Orton to grab the rope for the break.

After Orton would hit his rope-assisted DDT, Orton would then go for the RKO only for Alexa Bliss to appear on the titantron to distract Orton, Orton would then start spewing black goo, allowing Styles to hit the Phenomenal Forearm for the win against Orton.

1. Drew Mcintyre and Sheamus destroy each other

After their brutal match last week on RAW, Drew McIntyre and Sheamus had some high expectations heading into their match this week, especially after it was announced that their match would be a no disqualifications match. Luckily Mcintyre and Sheamus would deliver and rise up to the occasion as they put on a brutal and intense match with both men looking strong.

After Sheamus attacked Drew Mcintyre backstage, Mcintyre would get revenge by attacking Sheamus during his entrance. Sheamus and Drew would exchange kendo stick strikes and chairshots with Sheamus even throwing a chair at Drew after Drew tried to hit the Claymore on Sheamus during the match.

The match would end in a no-contest after both men hit each other in the head with the steel steps, setting up a rematch with the two down the line.

These were my top 5 moments from RAW this week. What were your top 5 moments and who do you think will win the RAW Tag Title match next week? Let us know in the comments below.

Chairshot Staff Picks: Money In The Bank

Extra, extra read all about it… Chairshot Staff picks are in!!!

Published

on

Sing it with me… money money money money moneeeeeeeeeyeeeeee… everybody’s got a price! MONEY IN THE BANK is here!!! How money will our staff picks be?!?

  • AJ – Roxanne Perez
  • Andrew – Stephanie Vaquer – *Bubba Sparxxx Impression* I don’t tell stories, I let them tell theyself.
  • Dave – Guilia – A stacked field but I just like her here.
  • DJ – Naomi
  • DPP – Roxanne Perez
  • Jason – Alexa Bliss
  • Patrick – Roxanne Perez
  • Rey – Naomi – If Naomi loses, we riot!
  • Rob – Naomi
  • Greg – Alexa Bliss – Bliss has had huge reactions since returning and is moving a ton of merch. While I can see them wanting to build Roxanne Perez, Giulia, or Stephanie Vaquer, I think Alexa Bliss.

Tunney’s Take: Rhea Ripley – I’ll make my case short and sweet… Mami in the Bank! You can’t leave that money on the table.

Chairshot Pick – Tie – Naomi 3 & Roxanne Perez 3 (Alexa Bliss 2, Giulia 1, Rhea Ripley 1, Stephanie Vaquer 1)

  • AJ – LA Knight
  • Andrew – El Grande Americano – Feels correct given his push and the fact he’s over.
  • Dave – Seth Rollins – Got to push that new faction.
  • DJ – LA Knight
  • DPP – El Grande Americano
  • Jason – LA Knight
  • Patrick – Solo Sikoa
  • Rey – LA Knight – Looks like another push, and he does have history with Cena.
  • Rob – Solo Sikoa
  • Greg – Seth Rollins – This company is extremely high in the El Grande Americano gimmick, but this match comes down to Seth Rollins or LA Knight. Given the Rollins storyline, it’s his briefcase to win.

Tunney’s Take: El Grande Americano – Picture this: Chad Gable wins the AAA Mega Championship and El Grande Americano wins MITB! WHAT A SATURDAY in LA!!!

Chairshot Pick – LA Knight 4 (El Grande Americano 3, Seth Rollins 2, Solo Sikoa 2)

 

  • AJ – Becky Lynch – Sadly
  • Andrew – Becky Lynch – I still don’t care about Lyra.
  • Dave – Lyra Valkyria – Starting to warm up to her and Becky has a lot to do with that.
  • DJ – Lyra Valkyria
  • DPP – Becky Lynch
  • Jason – Becky Lynch
  • Patrick – Lyra Valkyria
  • Rey – Becky Lynch – Put some fire on the Irish Beef.
  • Rob – Becky Lynch
  • Greg – Becky Lynch – I don’t think you do a rematch here just to have Becky lose again. Unless Bayley shows up to help Lyra.

Tunney’s Take: Becky Lynch – A big part of me feels that winning this title checks off a major box for Becks in her HOF career.

Chairshot Pick – Becky Lynch 8-3

  • AJ – Cena & Paul
  • Andrew – Rhodes & Uso – Easy way for Cena to lose without eating the pinfall.
  • Dave – Rhodes & Uso – Get the QB back on the winning track.
  • DJ – Rhodes & Uso
  • DPP – Rhodes & Uso
  • Jason – Cena & Paul
  • Patrick – Cena & Paul
  • Rey – Rhodes & Uso – Heels usually lose these kinds of matches. Logan takes the pin.
  • Rob – Cena & Paul
  • Greg – Rhodes & Uso – I hope Jey isn’t an afterthought here like Cody was last fall when he was paired up with Roman. I think Cody pins Cena to set up Cody-Cena 2 at SummerSlam.

Tunney’s Take: Cena & Paul – I don’t think Cena is involved in another loss until he loses the WWE Championship. I also think Logan Paul is NOT done trying to capture Jey Uso’s World Heavyweight Championship. …Travis Scott in the house?

Chairshot Pick – 6-5 Rhodes & Uso

Chairshot Staff Picks: Backlash St. Louis

Chairshot Staff picks!!!

Published

on

May is upon us and with that, so is Backlash from St. Louis! What does the first PLE after WrestleMania have in store for the WWE Universe? Let’s see if the Chairshot Staff can properly interpret the crystal ball of rasslin’ future.

  • AJ – Pat MacAfee – Gunther has to start losing control and who better than an announcer.
  • Andrew – Pat MacAfee – Goldberg getting involved does seem correct here.
  • Dave – Gunther – He’s not losing to a broadcaster.
  • DJ – Gunther – Pat is sent to the shadow realm until football season is over.
  • DPP – Gunther – Post match beat down leads to Pat time off.
  • Jason – Gunther – One massive spot and or bump from Pat.
  • Patrick – Gunther
  • Rey – Gunther – RIP MacAfee, t’was a good life.
  • Rob – Gunther
  • Greg – Pat MacAfee – Why? Goooooldbeeerrrrrgggggg!

Tunney’s Take: Gunther – Seems like the right pick here. Pat may be getting some time off and Gunther needs more heat.

Chairshot Pick – GUNTHER 8-3

  • AJ – Lyra Valkyria – Becky’s hopefully putting her over, still mad about Dakota.
  • Andrew – Becky Lynch – I have no real interest in Lyra currently.
  • Dave – Becky Lynch – Lyra is boring AF!
  • DJ – Lyra Valkyria – Bayley interferes.
  • DPP – Becky Lynch – Becky cheats and steals the title.
  • Jason – Lyra Valkyria – Bayley costs Becks.
  • Patrick – Becky Lynch
  • Rey – Becky Lynch – Story needs to jump up a bit, Becky Charlotte’s Lyra.
  • Rob – Lyra Valkyria
  • Greg – Becky Lynch – It’s been fun, Lyra. (It kinda hasn’t)

Tunney’s Take: Lyra Valkyria – Bayley’s interference should set up some type of program with Becky as we head towards Summer(Slam).

Chairshot Pick – BECKY LYNCH 6-5

 

  • AJ – Jacob Fatu – Great way to put him over w/ two former WHCs and LA Knight.
  • Andrew – Jacob Fatu – He’s Jacob Fatu!
  • Dave – Jacob Fatu – Too soon to pull the belt off him.
  • DJ – Jacob Fatu – Priest and LA can’t decide who’s is bigger.
  • DPP – Jacob Fatu – Your hardcore match, tables and chairs involved.
  • Jason – Jacob Fatu – The Champ retains due to or in spite of Solo.
  • Patrick – Jacob Fatu
  • Rey – Jacob Fatu – All gas. No brakes. Ain’t losing.
  • Rob – Jacob Fatu
  • Greg – Jacob Fatu – Someone from The Samoan Dynasty ain’t winning a title just to drop it.

Tunney’s Take: Jacob Fatu – Uncle Mo is on Fatu’s side and other than Knight, I don’t see Drew or Priest holding the US title in the current circumstances of this title’s landscape.

Chairshot Pick – JACOB FATU 11-0 

 

  • AJ – Dominic Mysterio – Judgement Day shenanigans just leading up to Finn turning on Dom later.
  • Andrew – Penta – Dom’s fine having a short reign, could also work for pushing AAA.
  • Dave – Dominic Mysterio – He’s probably more over than Penta.
  • DJ – Dominic Mysterio – Dirty Dom takes home the gold and the girl.
  • DPP – Dominic Mysterio – Big Head helps Dom pull out the win.
  • Jason – Dominic Mysterio – By hook and crook.
  • Patrick – Dominic Mysterio
  • Rey – Dominic Mysterio – Latino Heat keeps burning. Finn gets closer to the edge.
  • Rob – Dominic Mysterio
  • Greg – Dominic Mysterio – Someone from The Guerrero Dynasty ain’t winning a title just to drop it.

Tunney’s Take: Dominic Mysterio – That belt looks good with the king of chicken tendys. I can see Penta and Rey reforming as a tag team sooner than later.

Chairshot Pick – DOMINIC MYSTERIO 10-1

 

  • AJ – John Cena – Why? Cena wins, lol.
  • Andrew – John Cena – Shenanigans ensue so it’s not a clean win.
  • Dave – John Cena – The last time is now.
  • DJ – John Cena – Randy hears voices telling him he needs an Attitude Adjustment.
  • DPP – John Cena – Cena tries to cheat but the ref doesn’t call for a DQ.
  • Jason – John Cena – Nefarious means, Randy not ready for Evil John Cena.
  • Patrick – John Cena
  • Rey – John Cena – Cena just counting down the dates. Should be fun though.
  • Rob – John Cena
  • Greg – John Cena – You know they want Cody to be the hero in the end.

Tunney’s Take: Randy Orton – Once upon a time Randy got himself intentionally disqualified and it cost John. Saturday, history repeats itself with a 180-degree twist. Cena retains via Orton DQ victory. This time, Travis Scott’s appearance takes care of that task.

Chairshot Pick – JOHN CENA 10-1
