WWE SmackDown Live 19/6/18 | My Coherent Review.


Smackdown live was a great show and does the job to build off extreme rules. Why you ask?  Well i'll give you what's good, what's ok and what's bad in non chronological order.  And yes i know Big cass got released today. Apparently he got fired in a meeting that was called by Vince McMahon and not in front of everybody at Smackdown live in Toledo,Ohio according to good old dave meltzer of wrestling observer newsletter. Reason is unknown yet but we'll find out sooner rather than later. All righty then, lets go *Sami Zayn theme*. 
WHATS GOOD.
Jeff hardy
 

I loved enigma jeff hardy as a kid (yes i'm young) but this promo was awesome and gave me brother nero vibes to it. Hoping WWE brings back the theme song" No More Words" that he used back in late 2008 till almost late 2009 but that's probably not gonna happen. That will add a nice touch to this jeff hardy in my opinion. This feud with jeff and shinsuke makes sense considering that shinsuke low blowed him last week and gives a reason as to why hardy has a grudge on him. All i can say is, jeff needs to do what styles didn't do is put a metal object on his crouch. Nakamura is a weird human being is all i'll say. 


Nakamura's backstage promo


Well that was hilarious. To be honest, i thought heel Nakamura would suck but i was definitely wrong. So, good on WWE creative to convinced me otherwise.  


daniel bryan's backstage promo


I know, a different GIF but nevertheless that promo was awesome and if WWE creative keeps on doing this the this is a great tool for great long term storytelling. 

Rusev winning the gauntlet match on RUSEV DAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! *adien english voice*



Now that was great and the match itself was pretty good and i'm glad that rusev is getting a HUGE opportunity like that. They have face each other before but in a PPV, this should be a good match.


WHAT'S OK


becky lynch vs billy kay  


The match was fine. And again, i know i'm not talking about what's bad here yet but the iconics have been unbearble to watch as of late. Especially their horrendous promo last week and the sad thing is, it's not their fault really.

usos vs sanity 

I mean it was a impressive showing by sanity.That being said, i'm not invested all in this feud but probably will like it overtime.  


Gallows and Anderson vs  Bludgeon brothers


Decent match. Bludgoen brothers wins here with a powerbomb tag team finish. Interested as to why they aligned themselves with the miz in the main event. Anyways, should be interesting in the coming weeks. 


WHAT'S BAD

The opening segment


That segement was really similar to RAW's opening segment. The whole cliche swerve from babyface to right back being a heel promo. Asuka, being pissed at the finish two nights ago (Guess what asuka, so do i). Like i said in my money in the bank predictions, this iteration of carmella reminds me of chris jericho from late 2001, early 2002 as WWE undisputed champion in the sense that he goes on about how he beats the rock and stone cold steve austin in the same night to become undisputed champion while carmella goes on about how she beat Charlotte twice and at money in the bank, asuka. Another thing i have a problem with this segment is that asuka looked stupid in this segment i mean why WWE is giving her the dumb babyface cliche? I have NO IDEA. 


I'm curious, what do you think about smackdown this week? let me know in the comments and yes my money in the bank review will be up later this week. Anyways stay safe smarks.

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

WWE Smackdown 14/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

WOAH, WOOOOOAH *Insert drums* BURN IT DOWN *insert more drums* Don't know why I just quoted Seth Rollins' theme song. Probably because I'm bored and have nothing else better to do on a Saturday afternoon (which explains the Smackdown review).  Now, how was the show? It was aight.  The Viking Raiders vs Angel And Humberto Carrillo vs Jinder Mahal And Shank vs Mansoor And Cesaro. Winner Gets A Blue Tag Belt Opportunity.  The best part about all of this was The Usos introduction of all 4 members. Gotta say, they're pretty natural at this and wouldn't mind them doing ring announcing full time.  The only thing they should avoid is threatening somebody with WWE lawyers.  The Viking Raiders won the whole thing and all I can say is, finally! No more Viking Raiders vs Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss matches.  Why WWE Be Messing With Sami Like That!?  That "InZayn" stunt show is sad to watch. He should've been doing so much better than trying to do knockoff Jacka**...

The 5 News Week: Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions?, WWE Made How Much From YouTube!?

We're back. Well, I'm back given that I do this all by myself but in any case, The 5 News Week has returned to your feeds wherever ever it may be. In case you're new here, basically, in one article I share the 5 major or minor news of the week. Now, there were a lot of news that I've missed in 3 weeks including a story of a WWE shareholder suing WWE and Vince McMahon (how the hell didn't I report about this?).  I'm rambling on so without further useless explanations, here are the 5 News Week.  Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions? Steve Austin has interviewed some of the wrestlers he has faced over the years on his Broken Skull Sessions show with the exception of Goldberg other than a few stare downs in a feud that everyone wishes to forget.  Another person that is no stranger to the rattlesnake is the hitman himself Bret Hart and he's reportedly the next guest. From PWInsider and Mike Johnson, Bret was in the City ...
