Liv Morgan & Dominik Mysterio storyline begins . Waiting for Rhea Ripley return as babyface & have a feud with Liv in title & custody of Dom match at Summerslam
“Custody of Dom.” Hilarious 😂😂😂
@@citizensane4387just like Eddie and rey had almost 20 years ago
@@citizensane4387 A ladder match for the custody of Dom hanging over the ring maybe?
I feel like we’ll get Dom and Rhea vs Seth and Becky at some point
@@jkausti6737 Can we get a Dom on a pole match?? 😂🤣
There was a concerning amount of people who thought Becky Lynch was wrestling in a full three-piece suit
Tbh I thought it was too when she was backstage- it wasn’t until she came out and I realized that’s her actual gear. It was pretty cool and I guess her and Liv were doing a Britney Spears cosplay gig
A Orange Vest and she's Valet
Peaky Blinders is a major UK TV show/future movie; and it worked with Liv's whole "Watch Me" eye motifs that Becky would want to "blind" them...
I think she was off to perform at the opera
That annialator was absolutely nasty!
One of the best parts of the event
@@DOMCRUZMUSICthey suggested it might have actually been a botch. Not sure it was quite supposed to happen like that. I was also hoping Lyra would win.
If it was supposed to happen like that, the e person who decided that should be charged with attempted murder.
Calling it now. Drew wins at clash at the castle, then CM Punk gets involved at Summerslam and he loses it to Gunther. The CM punk vs Drew feud doesn't need a belt to be fire.
That’s solid. Idk why, but I immediately they’d have Gunther beat Rhodes at SS
Good plan but still too early for Priest to drop so probably Punk interferes at Clash
@@barrysmith4610 I think Priest is going to have a pretty short run and lose it at Clash. Allows for Priest vs Judgement Day while Drew and Punk fight
@@joshuacitron899 I wish people would pay attention to what Triple H said. You can't choose which champion you go after, unlike the Rumble. It's the champion you're locked to on your brand.
@@Ronfost89 good point as well
I love Günthers line "what I deserve or don't deserve is non of yours business"
Used to be one of those people that were super tough on Nia for her being an unsafe worker and injuring people but she has improved SO MUCH since her return
Happy for Nia for being the Queen of the Ring. She really does deserve it
Cup final, live WWE event and a bank holiday. What a weekend 😊
Ikr
Awesome match, pretty good wrestling and a day off.
If only every Saturday was like that.
YANITED! YANITED! YANITED!
Here comes Dominik and his mustache 😂
The triple threat match was my favorite match of the night.
Funniest line in the whole show when logen paul screams who are you and cody responded im cody rhodes bitch 😂
Ripley v Morgan in a ladder match with Dom hanging up for grabs
😂😂😂😂
That would make Dom a modern day Buff Bagwell's Mother.
Not only are the women’s tag titles treated as an afterthought, but it’s so obvious that Jade and Bianca are gonna split up and have a feud probably at next years Mania.
They don’t even come out together. It’s almost like WWE doesn’t want us to see them as long term partners.
Randy's shoulder was up 💯💯 Round 2 plz. It will also get an up 👍🏽
You think they add him in at summerslam?
@@rhinoryan0840the rematch will be held in Clash of the Castle
Simon your the best!
I really liked the Hulk Logan Paul angle/spot he had with Graves and Cole. Long term storytelling!!!!
I think it's a good time to let Otis break away from Alpha Academy and do his own thing. Let him go solo. A feud with Chad Gable would be great.
.. I hate how Indi Hartwell, the former nxt champion mind you, was called up to be a jobber ...
Same. Indi deserves so much better, but I feel like it's coming soon. Triple H always does right by his NXT stars at some point.
Bruh she hasn't even been on the main roster that damn long. Her push will come when it's time
@@whysoserious4464 ... Lyra was called up yesterday and has a solo win. Indi doesn't even get offense in ...
@@whysoserious4464true there’s too many stars right now. Things gotta cool down he push everyone at once.
Maybe she should ditch her buddy Candace and her career will be better
Cody yelling at Logan was a response to Logan yelling his version at Cody earlier in the match
The blue Thunder bomb is great
I’d love to see a Bloodline story that extends to the women’s division, which Nia Jax is in the “New Bloodline” and Naomi is in the “OG Bloodline”.
Naomi eluded to something similar on social media a few weeks ago
I’m glad that Sami won, BUT what in the BLUE HELL was Bronson Reed doing the whole time Chad and Sami were going back and forth outside the ring at the end of the match? Simon breezed past it on the review, but seriously Sami, Chad and Otis did their thing for about 5 minutes outside the ring, Bronson snuck back in the ring and hung around in the corner just to eat a Helluvakick out of nowhere 😂😂😂
I really don't like it when some champions get a "rematch clause" and others don't.
Simon give yourself a Golden Up and keep smashing it
In an era where there's only 5 matches on a show, getting on the pre-show is a much bigger deal
SIMON IS THE BEST, SIMON NUMBER ONE 👏👏
On the tag team title situation... Would you rather them not be on the show at all? If there's no room on the main card do you not put them on the pre show? The pre show's there to pump you up and get you excited for the event. What better way than showcasing the tag team champs?
That was the most devastating Least Devastating Move in Sports Entertainment I've ever seen, and it STILL didn't get the job done! I immediately thought of you when it happened lol
Liv winning I thought was a awesome change I think & Orton facing Gunther was good except for the finish & Nia winning kinda was surprised I thought Lyra would win
STEP MAMI ON TOP
Just want to say that I love ups and down and Simon Miller❤
The womens division is missing a mid card belt coz Laira and Tiffany are too good not to be holding belts,future champions for sure but for now they need a programme
Randy Orton’s shoulder was well up lol…
I don’t know if Randy messed up and he was supposed to take the pin there or the ref messed up and he wasn’t supposed to count the pin there. Either way, it wasn’t on Gunther. Not sure if HHH planned it that way or he just rolled with it for a story angle.
@@citizensane4387 Though one can blame Randy, I say it's really the Refs fault. He shouldn't have counted that, the shoulder was like foot and a half off the mat. Come on, you have Randy and Gunther in there, they can ad hoc a proper ending if you wave that pin off no problem.
Triple H addressed this- might be storyline to keep Randy vs Gunther going
Might be a storyline, or maybe HHH is just really good at patching things up on the fly when they go sideways. Either way nice to see that they actually ackowledged that it happened, we all remember what happened with Becky and Rhonda back in the day with a similar situation.
Shoot I was shocked he was taking the chops
the second Dominik appeared, the storyline behind the Women's Title got 2X more interesting, but as the scenario unveiled, it got 10X more interesting. it had been a while since I was so intrigued about a female title
The irony of the Saudi Arabia laws prevent women from showing skin but having the most figure hugging outfits is never lost on me.😁
Fok saudi.
There is actual small improvement there.
During the first Saudi show Natalya and her opponent (forgot who it was) basically had to wrestle with blue trashcan bags over loose attire.
Still sportswashing is shameful, but if FIFA does it, can't see WWE ending it prematurely!
@@exilhamburger4802 it was Lacey Evans
Backward country is backward. The dangers of letting religion control the state.
Not too mention the guys are oiled up up in briefs.
Does anybody know why Samantha wasn't the ring announcer? At this show.
I would appreciate it if someday could let me know.
She a woman
No mercy is a great video game
The most iconic
WWE Cookin wit the PLEs rn. We got like 3 within 50 days aint Clash June 15th ?? 🔥
Can we talk about how much better the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments were compared to the Continental Classic? KotR and QotR had logical winners and had actual stakes on the line with the winners getting title shots at SummerSlam, plus they were able to build up and put over new stars like Lyra. Meanwhile, all the Continental Classic accomplished was giving Eddie Kingston a third meaningless blet to go along with the 2 other meaningless belts he already had.
Good morning, Simon!
First Queen of the Ring tournament winner is Nia Jax... ugh. BTW I miss the 1 night tournaments like the one I saw as a kid. All Hail King Owen Hart.
Zelina won the Queens Crown Tournament. Vince was trying to make it different than the KOTR.
Not too surprised to see Nia Jax crowned queen. I guess she’s gonna dominate the women’s division on SmackDown for awhile.
Clash at the Castle, Euros and House of the Dragon, all in one weekend. You love to see it.
That 2:27 picture out of context would be hard to explain.
Liv's gotten really good in the ring in recent years. I still wish her promos were better but she's certainly earned a spot in the upper card at this point.
I mean a ref is in the picture making a count, it pretty much gives all the context you need.
The outcome of this PPV/PLE gave me a fever dream of Gunther and Nia being an on-screen royalty couple WHAT?!
Simon you are the best
Bonus Up for Becky's outfit. Absolute fire.
EDIT: Also, Bonus Down for part of the Main Event. On the whole, the match was very good, but I felt like Cody was giving way too much to Logan early on, even before the brass knuckle shot. Cody should have been mostly in command until the knucks came out, but if anything it felt like Logan was pretty dominant. You're absolutely right that he is an *infuriatingly* good wrestler, but in character they simply should not be presented as equals. It didn't kill the match, it was a fun ride overall, but it did require a bit more suspension of disbelief than I like.
didn’t see any comments really, but logan actually pitched the drone shot idea, he gets professional wrestling love or hate him
Simon keep getting mad at the women's tag titles being on the pre-show is strange... giving the fact both men's tag titles weren't even on the show and are currently being held by two comedic tag teams no one really care about... at this point I don't even understand why they split them up should've just unified them because truth and miz was a feel good moment for wrestle mania but should've got squashed by the wolf dogs first night of the draft and A town down under just have random talk shows and are sidekicks to random heels
“My balled head is coming at you way too much” Pause 😂
"Balled head!" That's what you call it?
🤣🤣⚽⚾🥎🏀🏐👴
Yea Nia last move was nuts
Just curious for those who were there. Was the audience/crowd chants overlaid or were they really into it? Since I’m just watching the replay, it sounded like they piped in the chants
what has Jade Cargil done to be classified as a "top star"?
Crowd reaction
She had a Goldberg-like TBS championship run in AEW
That Orton/Gunther match was good, but it was one of the most Orton matches ever, just slow as hell with a lot of squaring off punctuated with moves rather than a constant struggle and strikes affair like Gunther tends to go with.
I will say this, Orton sold like an auctioneer. Just constantly establishing how beat up he was and how well Gunther was working over his every weakness. Excellent work on his part.
How has HHH not figured out the womens tag division yet? It's such a joke the way he treats it week after week.
Maybe I missed something, but I thought the Rhodes vs Paul match was a dual title match.
I’m not sure if Gunther is allowed to challenge Cody with his shot, but I hope he is. Gunther vs Cody and Drew vs Punk at Summerslam would be massive.
Ups and downs is by far the most watched videos on this channel.
I hope someone else writes these scripts for him. Or does the editing... Not really cool if Simon is doing everything and everyone else is getting paid.
I don't get why Becky was wearing a tuxedo
It was a bit ridiculous. But. She's the man....
Because women have to cover up due to sexist Arabia. And she’s the man and wanted to do something unique instead of a standard bodysuit.
Thanks for the review Simon
So Simon are you claiming the Rock Bottom sucks because it never won The Rock any matches? Or Old School was the least devastating move of all time because it never got the 1,2,3? Or Brock Lesnar's German Suplexes are trash because they've never achieved a pinfall? Or Kevin Owens top rope inside out fisherman's suplex should be scrapped because it isn't his finishing move?
OMG what ple from start to finish on pins and needles clapping at the tv I'm such a nerd , love the ups and downs
Thanks Simon, good breakdown as usual, also, please bring back AEW Collision ups and down, thanks.
Does anyone else see Gunther characteristics taking over Gable?
Simon, that was not how the Orton match end. He didn't kick out the RKO. He attacked Orton knee than hit him w the most devastating move of all time lol
Every single match was a BANGER!
Awesome overall. I became a big fan of Lyra after that match, she was amazing
Funny thing about the figure 4 part is Logan screaming Cody you’re going to break my leg. I think some people didn’t look into it but Who broke Cody’s dads leg back in the day and I’m pretty sure they used the figure four to say it “happened” ric flair
Wrestling is great!!!!!!!!!
What a time to be a wrestling fan I grew up watching The attitude era this new era is getting to the point where it's almost as good triple h who is my favorite wrestler by the way keep up the good work
I like the king and queen of the ring. I knew how all the match would go and a love I it. Yeah they were all guessable. However, I can see were they're going and they wasn’t a shot in the dark. The fuller was fun to see too.
The stuff ricochet has done, sami using a brainbuster outta nowhere, Cody using vertebreaker…..wwe is allowing stars to be creative like in heyday of nxt gold circa 2014.
Not only has wwe stepped up in their storytelling and showmanship in production….but their in ring work is starting to really open up, they’re the best all around right now, and its a win for all wrestling fans that they keep improving week by week with these things
WWE Rematch Counter: 80
King and Queen of the Ring was a great show with the match of the night being the King of the Ring Finals.
They got both of the finalists wrong. Orton. Has never won KOTR, he should've won beaten Gunther. Gunther has a lot more time to do it than Orton does. Unless they plan on using Nia in the Bloodline, they should've had Lyra win.
Great Job as usual. You are definitely one of this generations go to for Wrestling content. Brilliant writing
Very good Simon miller makes me feel warm and fuzzy in my tum tum
I absolutely despise Logan Paul but i am really jealous of his in ring performances... He makes it look so easy.
Good show, surprised that there were that many women's matches..
Can cody just stop using the cody cutter? He always botches that move.
That’s a total lie and you know it… he literally just hit perfect ones on AJ Styles, Roman & The Rock
@@_justinblizzle that Aj styles one was not at all perfect
“That move Saaaawks” 😂
I'm sure I saw Sami beat somebody with the blue thunderbomb once over the past couple of years. Can't remember when and who though!
McDonut on Raw
Hey, at least the women tag titles were showcased at a PLE...not gonna lie, almost forgot those two were the champs
im only here for the blue thunder bomb reaction by simon
Simon, u said that tue Blue Thunder Bomb only works in Saudi. It didn't......WASSUP WIT DAT? (Insert Hurricane pose)
???? There was only one event Simon? Checked the listings for all major promotions did not find another PLE
AEW Double or Nothing is happening Sunday night
@@John_Lark-b8e 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nia breaking a little bit with HHH was kinda sweet.
I LOVE that Liv won!! I don't care what the haters say, she deserves it. I like Becky, I am just tired of her being the champ.
Having the Women's World Title change hands twice in less than a month and a half just seems off to me. If you're having trouble getting Lynch to sign a contract, why have her win the title in the first place?
Bianca and Jade vs Becky and Charlotte is on my list of Dream matches
Gunther chop = new most devastating move in all of sports entertainment!!!!
I feel like this was a very good ple
KING GENERAL ABSOLUTELY IS A THING
finally think wwe got the balance right saudi used to be an exhibition but under hhh seems like its a big thing now just as i was about to give up after 40 yrs of viewing under vince along comes hhh and takes me back to wen it was great gud job wwe im back in
Orton got robbed!!! Obviously there was a payoff to the ref 😢😢😢 .
Not going to lie, I'd love to see them get the title off Logan and let him and Cody feud a bit. The build up could have been better, but I think they have something together and Paul is getting better on the mic. Never thought I'd say this when he joined up, but the dude is a solid wrestler.
Best thing about the Liv vs Becky match was that they actually had proper ring gear. And the match wasn't bad either.
It’s because Logan shouted “who are you?” When Ibraham grabbed him
So Cody responded 😂
Yeah I picked up on that too. I was surprised how many people missed it.
Alexander Swagger vs. Gunther at clash at the castle!
Who?
Dominik Mustachio Senior, ConDom's true Final Form. It just screams 'Main Eventer', right?
By Bloodline rules, Nia Jax is now the Head of the Table, Tribal Chief
I thought Nia Jax killed her with that finish 😂
Random thought,Dominik should change his finisher to the back stabber it fits his character more and he is too slow and tall for the 619
