WWE Smackdown Live 31/7/18 | My Coherent Review.


Smackdown has been killing it with their summerslam build. In other words, that episode was great. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good and what's ok and the reason why there's no what's bad is quite obvious. Now with the review. 


WHAT'S GOOD


The Bar vs The Usos semi finals match

That was a great match. New day having their own commentary team was amazing. Absolutely comedic GOLD. Anyways the match ends with sheamus reversing the uso splash into a roll up to win this match. Advancing into the finals to determine the number one contender for the tag teams championship. Yes the match was filled with commercial breaks but again, great match. 

Samoa Joe's promo

Joe admits that he respects Styles for building his house on SmackDown LIVE and making the WWE Title the most important championship in WWE.
Look. It's no secret that samoa joe can cut a great promo. However, that promo was great. His promo was basically about how AJ is a great champion but he's doesn't care about his family keeping this feud personal in the process. The promo ends with samoa joe telling AJ Styles that he will return to his family but not as WWE champion instead it's going to be joe. Another great promo by samoa joe and in my opinion, i could name only a few wrestlers in the WWE who's in level of samoa joe in terms of mic skills. 

Randy Orton looking vicious 

... and wipes the face paint off of his enemy.
I thought this was great. The great thing about this is that he was taking away jeff hardy's identity by beating the crap out of him and again i thought this was great. With nakamura delivering a kinshasa to jeff before this, it looks like were gonna have a triple treat match for the united states championship (No shit, omar). 

Daniel Bryan calls out The Miz 

Miz promises Bryan that his WWE Career is over and that the WWE Universe has moved on.
This entire segment was great and the best thing about this segment is that the miz basically stated that daniel bryan calling him out makes him a hypocrite considering that bryan walked out after the miz cut his best promo on talking smack. And he mentioned bryan's WWE contract expiring on September which was the whip cream on top of my starbuck's frappuccino. 

WHAT'S OK 

Zelina Vega vs Lana

Decent match. The match ends with aiden english helping lana from outside distraction but that didn't stop from vega winning this match with the roll up. Meanwhile aiden english explained lana as to why he came out to help her and she doesn't want to listen to him. Out comes rusev and lana was upset that rusev wasn't by her side during the match with zelina vega. Like i said on my last week's review, sad emoji. 

Charlotte vs Carmella 

The fight is on!
Surprisingly, this was the second time that carmella had a decent match. Not a bad effort by carmella. Anyways, the match ends with Charlotte delivering a figure four leg lock to carmella to win this match making a triple treat match and at first i hated this win considering that carmella lost a match twice hence making her look weak going into summerslam. However, i thought of becky lynch's facial expression after Charlotte won the match and immediately i didn't mind the win simply because they're teasing a heel turn from becky after Charlotte wins the title which i see that happening from a mile away. Maybe when a heel becky wins the championship, they could do a asuka vs becky match at wresltemania but will see.

Will Hobbs. Professional Wrestling's Powerhouse

"What's the most powerful house you can think of? Perhaps a bungalow, something that's low, unshakable, that kinda thing? ” Hey Ew, 2022 Think of the greatest big men in the history of the business. Big Van Vader who represents pure unadulterated aggression that seamlessly benefits his ferocious in-ring style ( see his match with Mitsuharu Misawa for more information).  Bam Bam Bigelow who's unpredictability inside the ring like his flying headbutts and moonsaults has made him spectacular to watch.  The Undertaker who have built a sense of aura by masterfully marching down the ring, creating anticipation in the process as well as constructing an expression of a man who hates video games and wants “men to be like men” .  And then there's Powerhouse Will Hobbs. A man who I believe in years to come is the heir apparent to the throne of “greatest big men in wrestling” and for good reason. Mr “I Break Backs Like Bane” possesses a power that belies his exuberance.  Why ...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With Musician John Kiernan.

  WE'RE BACK LADIES, GENTLEMEN AND NB! Now, what did I miss from the several week hiatus?  *Scrolls down at the news feed* a billionaire said something stupid. Monday Night RAW is still duh and uninspired. Mass release of talent by WWE.  So……. Same old sh*t? Figures.  For those unaware (pretty much everybody), The 5 News Week is where I showcase 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have the time to do separately.  Without further ado, here are the 5 News Week.  An Interview With Musician John Kiernan.  I kick things off with an interview from a guy that I'm hoping (as a musician) appreciates Brie Bella's theme song because my music tastes suck, musician John Kiernan.  If the name sounds familiar to you, it’s probably because you’re listening to a podcast that loves shouting out the names John “loose cannon” Lopez and ‘Beast Mode” Brock Joseph at the beginning.  Kiernan has composed and straight-up killed it in the pro wrestling musi...

Wrestling Publications And Web Design.

The internet is home to over 50 billion websites and within the pro wrestling niche, there are 60+ established sites that fans click into on a daily basis for news, editorials, reviews, interviews and other exclusive content.  Those websites have four key critical tasks. One, the content obviously. Two, the design and functionality of said sites. Three, just copy what Dave Meltzer said. And four, just make sh*t up.  Creating a site is a different beast. Some use Blogger like this site while others use square-space, Wix, or even code a site from the ground up.  The problem with developing a web page from scratch is that it's time-consuming and you have to learn some mark-up languages like HTML and CSS.  It's essentially a great skill that isn't worth it if you want a site in minutes. Now, the main question is, why am I writing this article in the first place?  When you learn a skill, you tend to have a different view on a product that is connected with the skill ...
