Here on Episode 97, we kick things off by reviewing Monday Night Raw from May 9, 2016. A 6-Man Elimination Tag Team match took place between The Roman Empire and The Club. After the two factions split victories last week, would this match on Raw give one side an edge over the other? And how might this match have given us some insight as to what will happen in a little over a week at Extreme Rules? Speaking of Extreme Rules, Stephanie and Shane McMahon had it in their minds to make a Triple Threat match for the Intercontinental Championship at the event. Who stepped forward to make his case for a Fatal Four Way at Extreme Rules instead? The New Day and The Dudley Boyz renewed their rivalry. What other team made their presence felt to tilt that match against the Tag Team Champs? Charlotte took on Paige with her father “The Nature Boy” banned from ringside. Would the WWE Women’s Champ be able to defeat her old rival without her father in her corner…or was this a possible sign of things to come? Plus, the Dean Ambrose and Chris Jericho situation escalated a bit more. How? We have all those answers for you on Episode 97.
We then review NXT from May 11, 2016. Finn Balor returned to the show and made his intentions very clear as far as the new NXT Champion, Samoa Joe, was concerned. Finn would also take on Elias Samson in the Main Event. William Regal announced the Main Event for the next Takeover event. What match will headline the show coming from Full Sail on June 8, 2016? Shinsuke Nakamura took on Alex Riley. Could the King of Strongstyle keep his impressive run going? Plus, American Alpha and Alexa Bliss were in action. We have all the details, reviews and analysis here for you on Episode 97.
