WWE Uncooked Outcomes—Monday, June 14, 2021
Opening Section That includes Alexa’s Playground
I do know wrestling followers have been brainwashed into hating all the things that has to do with Alexa’s Playground (and far of that is WWE’s personal fault), however the interplay between Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss may need been one of the best phase within the historical past of Alexa’s Playground. Low of a bar as that’s.
After months of little-to-no wrestling, Alexa Bliss booked her subsequent two opponents within the type of Nia Jax (tonight) and Shayna Baszler (Hell in a Cell)
Nikki Cross def. Charlotte Aptitude through Countout
Rhea Ripley spent this match exchanging passive-aggressive smiles with Charlotte Aptitude and I’m nonetheless confused s to who the babyface is on this feud.
Nikki Cross’ win-streak was repeatedly billed on commentary as a fortunate streak. Cross has quietly change into the Gillberg of the ladies’s division.
Bear in mind, Charlotte is in some way the No. 1 Contender for the Uncooked Girls’s Championship.
John Morrison def. Jeff Hardy; Jeff Hardy def. Cedric Alexander
I used to be so glad to see Cedric Alexander seem ringside, indicating WWE has follow-up plans for him after shedding to Jeff Hardy.
John Morrison’s Drip stick is changing into this era’s “Vanity,” by Rick Martel.
WWE had to make use of a retirement stipulation to make this match fascinating, however all that did was make it predictable as a result of I’d be shocked if WWE let Cedric Alexander retire Jeff Hardy.
With WWE chopping so many high-salary veterans, Jeff Hardy shedding and “retiring” wasn’t utterly out of the query.
Cedric Alexander will get far more air on the Swanton Bomb than Jeff Hardy does.
Piper Niven (With Eva Marie) def. Naomi
Corey Graves stated “Naomi has been trending since this match has been introduced,” as WWE was greasing up Twitter for outrage if she have been to lose to Eva Marie.
Followers have been able to revolt on the concept of Eva Marie beating Naomi, however then WWE pulled a bait-and-switch with an Web darling Piper Niven and Twitter didn’t know who to be mad at.
I liked the phase with Natalya, Tamina Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke. It was a special and plausible backstage phase within the physique of a wrestling present.
RK-Bro def. The New Day
This match obtained sloppy for a stretch within the center however the end made up for it.
The New Day dipped out and in of working this match as heels. Once they confirmed shades of working heel they have been so nice.
Rhea Ripley def. Asuka
Rhea Ripley and Asuka lastly had an honest match, however come the WWE Draft they shouldn’t be on the identical model.
Rhea Ripley has dominated this sequence in opposition to Asuka, who has spent a lot of the 12 months placing Ripley over.
Charlotte Aptitude may need damaged her nostril in a wild-but-awesome brawl with Rhea Ripley after this match.
Alexa Bliss def. Nia Jax by Disqualification
One among Nia Jax’s credit on her chyron learn “tag workforce companion for Shayna Baszler,” which is precisely how she’s being booked within the Bliss-Baszler feud.
The second Alexa Bliss began performing an exorcism on Reginald, the Get Out jokes simply wrote themselves.
I knew it was solely a matter of time earlier than Reginald obtained dragged into this mess, however he has made a profession out of creating hen salad out of a WWE script.
I do not know the place WWE goes with this MVP-Kofi Kingston storyline, however I’m very intrigued.
Jaxson Ryker def. Elias through Countout
If WWE merely replayed their match from final week, I ponder how many individuals would discover. I ponder if that’s what they really did because it was basically the identical actual match and end.
This was a horrible head-to-head matchup for WWE with this hapless feud in opposition to the ultimate possessions of an thrilling Philadelphia 76ers-Atlanta Hawks playoff recreation.
Drew McIntyre and The Viking Raiders def. Bobby Lashley, AJ Types and Omos
Drew McIntyre isn’t coming throughout effectively together with his weekly story time segments. If WWE thinks that is making its high babyface cooler, it’s not.
Drew McIntyre made an obscene gesture towards Lashley’s girls and Lashley was not having it.
This match was known as the Uncooked predominant occasion 5 minutes into the match and with half-hour left within the present.
I used to be shocked that this match didn’t flip right into a six-man through the industrial break because it remained a one-on-one. Inevitably, this did change into a six-man tag.
Between Erik, Omos and Lashley, this was principally a mini Uncooked Underground reunion.
I liked the real looking contact of getting this match begin out as a three-on-two whereas Lashley was backstage turning into his gear.
