WWE RAW 25/6/18 | My Coherent Review.



RAW last night was meh at best. Why you ask? Well, i'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad in non chronogical order. Now, on with the review.


WHAT'S GOOD


They're back

Where was authors of pain all this time? Well according to wrestling news source, the reason why they've been off TV for few months is simple. Creative have nothing for them which sucks considering that their a good hand for the tag team division. A feud is in place with titus and apollo and yes the match is going to be very predictable but it's better than being off TV for months.


Alexa Bliss's promo

Mickie is angry that “the angry maniac” Ronda Rousey attacked Bliss last week.

Although i'm not a fan of alexa winning the championship last week, she carried herself pretty well. In other words, her promo was great. By far the best thing about this promo was that she "thanked" everyone about her cash in. I'll let you guys figure that out. By the way, Nia jax is back and smiling hard as hell. The match after that with natalya was ok. Natalya wins here with the sharpshooter. Hoping their match at extreme rules is at least decent at best considering that both matches between nia and alexa sucked. 



The intercontinental championship match



Rollins and Ziggler collide at full speed!

All i can say about this match is WOW! What a match. Started a bit slow for me but it picked the hell up. I mean this is a pay per view quality match for me. The match ends with drew costing seth the match after seth delivered a falcon arrow. I didn't care when roman showed up to save him only to possibly leading up to a tag team match next week. I'll assume that a rematch is gonna happen at extreme rules which i don't mind. 



WHAT'S OK

To be honest, i didn't care all that much about the heel turn but i'm interested on what creative will handle this new persona of bayley. 


WHAT'S BAD



Rest of the show felt very similar of last week's show

The tag team title feud, the opening segment and the match after that, Mojo rawley refusing to face no way Jose and braun teaming up with kevin owens vs corbin and finn balor are just the examples of how this show felt very similar to last week with exceptions. I mean WWE, can you just come up with fresh matchups and storylines instead of basically rehashing last week's show? Very lazy writing on WWE's part.

WWE RAW 30/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

Monday Night RAW this week didn't hurt my brain cells (except Nia Jax's wrestling skills which are as consistent as any Rob Schneider comedy).  Images via WWE.com   Damian Priest Was Like, "I'll Have An Open Challenge, Please?"  And then, it turned out to be a "wrestlers stated their case as to why they should be a contender" cliche starring Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley and the team of RKBro.  To which Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville were like, "how about Damian Priest defending his belt against Drew McIntyre and Sheamus while RKBRO faces the team of MVP and Bobby Lashley".  Cliche aside, the opening scene did a great job of showing a huge importance to the United States Championship which is something that I've been wanting for quite some time.  Rhea Ripley vs Shayna Baszler.  Remember when both of these competitors main evented an episode of NXT? Good times.  Ripley wins with an inside cradle which led to Nia Jax attacking the winn...

WWE Hell In A Cell 2020 | A Coherent Review.

WWE is continuing the streak of shorter PPVs and as a guy that lives overseas, I don't mind WWE doing this even if the fans come back to arenas.   Also, The 2020 edition of Hell In A Cell had a decisive and conclusive ending. Yayyyyyy!  The show itself was okay but it did have its moments, to say the least.  pictures via WWE.com Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso. Hell In A Cell I Quit Match.  I gotta say.  It is so weird to hear boos that WWE adds in the background for Roman Reigns given the history they've had in altering actual boos from the crowd many years ago.  It is also weird for WWE to open this show with a match that main evented the previous PPV. The question is, was it worth it? Heck yeah, dude.  Both men hit each other's finishers not once but twice and it wasn't enough for Reigns and Jey Uso to quit.  At one point, the match was turned into a strap match of some sort because Roman and Jey tied themselves with that strap. Jey used the strap...

WWE RAW Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

Monday Night RAW got a new intro and it's fantastic not gonna lie.  Shout out to NF for that absolute club BANGER of a song.  I can already hear the rage from people just because it isn't a rock song.  How was the "season premiere" of Monday Night RAW?  It was not good. As a matter of opinion, it was a baddddd show.  I can tell from watching this that Vince McMahon tore up the script AGAIN and wrote the entire thing moments before the show goes on the air.  It's like if a movie was about to start shooting only for the director to tear up the entire thing and write it from the ground up.   pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Monday Night RAW Kicked Off With……….. Alexa Bliss calling out The Fiend, Bray Wyatt. Just as Bliss had a blank stare, Out came The Fiend.  The Fiend and Bliss were interrupted by Retribution.  Bray Wyatt and Alexa Bliss disappeared after Retribution tried to attack them.  The Hurt Business has some unfini...
