WWE No Mercy 2017 Review

WWE No Mercy 2017 Announcers: Michael Cole, Corey Graves, Booker T & Vic Joseph Location: Los Angeles, CA Venue: The Staples Center A solid match to kick off the show with the 7-time Intercontinental champion The Miz defending against Jason Jordan. Miz had The Miztourage Bo Dalls & Curtis Axel with him at ringside who proved very useful to the champion. Crowd was hot for The Miz because he is billed as from LA these days. Dallas & Axel provided a distraction to help Miz get an early advantage working over Jordan's mid-section with the 'It' Kicks. Jordan manages to catch Miz charging at him in the corner and starts throwing him around with various suplexes. Jordan's hits his awesome looking multiple Northern Lights Suplexes but only gets 2. Jordan looks to be going for the finish but Dallas is on the turnbuckle. Jordan knocks him down and while the ref is distratced, Axel blasts Jordan and is met by a Skull Crushing Finale from The Miz for th

For the second week in a row RAW opens with a match! Good stuff!! Roman Reigns defeated Jason Jordan in a decent match that was a really good way to kick off the show. Jordan looked good in defeat and once again those double Northern Lights Suplexes are very impressive. I think this match was better than the Cena one last week as Reigns can work a faster pace than Cena. After the match Cena came out and had another verbal bout with Reigns. Reigns said that WWE doesn't need Cena anymore and Cena said Reigns like a drug test isn't getting pass him. YIKES!! I can't wait to see them destroy each other at No Mercy. Sasha Banks took on Emma next and beat her easily. *sighs* Just let Emma have one win will you! Universal Champion Brock Lesnar and his advocate Paul Heyman came out and Heyman does his usual magical promo work selling us on the match between Brock & Braun Strowman at No Mercy. Heyman challenges Braun to come out which he does and the fight is on! After a

This Week RAW opened with a match! GOOD GRIEF! And a pretty decent match too. Jason Jordan continued his recent trend of asking for tough opponents and here he faced John Cena. While there was never any doubt that Cena would win, Jordan got in some believable offence that he could pull off the upset. After Cena shook his hand, Roman Reigns came down and continued his war of words his started with Cena last week. More of the same trash talking from last week and although they are both booked at faces it feels like Reigns is coming across more like a heel. They haven't brawled yet and hopefully they don't til No Mercy. Sheamus & Cesaro beat Rhyno & Heath Slater in about a minute. Sheamus & Cesaro are getting a rematch for the Tag Titles at No Mercy so makes sense for them to win. The Miz defended the Intercontinental title against Jeff Hardy in a pretty good match. Its only a matter of time before Jeff goes single full time and it was nice to see a title defe

This Week in The Universe is going to be different from the norm. I've had a busy week with work so haven't had the time to watch all of Raw and any of Smackdown, 205 Live & NXT. However I have seen the John Cena/Roman Reigns promo that everyone is talking about and the first round matches from the Mae Young Classic so I'm going to discuss those things here. First of all I would highly recommend to everyone that they watch the first round matches on the WWE Network. All the matches are decent and there are a few really good matches. Second of all I know that all the matches up to the Final have already been recorded but I haven't looked at spoilers and don't plan to so please can noone spoil it for me! I was disappointed Kay Lee Ray went out in the first round as I'm a big fan of hers from the UK independent scene. It was great to see Serena Deeb back in a WWE ring as I was a big fan of hers from the Straight Edge Society days. Shayna Bazler looks lik
