WWE RAW 9/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Strowman has been unstoppable over the last one year.

The go home show for RAW was surprisingly ok considering that the past few RAWs has been terrible. Why you ask? Well, i'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Let's talk wrestling shall we?

WHAT'S GOOD

The main event

This was a great match with countless near falls and it had an unpredictable finish. What do i mean by this? Well matches like "if X wrestler beats Y wrestler then he's banned from ringside at Wrestlemania" or something and the babyface using wins but not this match and i really appreciate that even though WWE hasn't impressed me that much overall. Drew wins with the claymore. Again, great stuff by both men.

Mojo rawley as of late

Yes i put his segments with no way jose on what's bad. However, he has showed intensity and seriousness to his character and if he keeps on winning matches and gaining some momentum like becky over on Smackdown Live then we might see a great side of mojo rawley. And mojo wins with a devastating Alabama slam.

WHAT'S OK

Nia jax and Natalya vs Alexa bliss and Micke james

The match was ok. Nia wins with a leg drop to mickie james. I honestly again, don't give a shit about this feud. Just ended it and have ronda face alexa bliss at summerslam please?

Woken matt hardy vs Bo dallas

Bo dallas and cutris axel's impression as their opponents this sunday is getting old and boring. The match was fine, nothing groundbreaking or anything like that. Bo wins with a swinging neckbreaker.

Baron corbin and elias vs Bobby roode and Finn Balor

By the way, what's going on with finn balor? Why is he smiling all the time? That's the questions i asked to myself ever single week for the past few months now. Anyways, the match was fine (that's WWE creative looking at the horrendous segment last week with finn balor and baron corbin. "Oh it's fine"). Baron corbins with with the end of days. Hoping finn balor moves on from this.

Kevin owens hiding from Braun strowman

This feud in my humble opinion, makes kevin owens sympathetic and makes braun look like a dick at that's the problem with this feud. The match itself should be interesting.

WHAT'S BAD

Ember moon vs Liv morgan

Why am i seeing this match AGAIN? WHY? WHY? WHY? Anyways, i'm loving ember moon so far but wouldn't be better if she faced sarah logan instead? That's what i called it a BOOKING HOLE similar to a plot hole in movies/television shows.

Roman reigns brawls with Bobby lashley

Instead, Reigns and Lashley start throwing haymakers!

Look, i'm not putting this on what's bad because "i hate roman therefore i shit whenever he's on a segment/match". It's because it feels like i've seen this before. It's feels so similar to his brawl with Triple H a couple of years ago and both brawls ended with roman delivering a suicide dive to half of the RAW roster including lashley himself. But hey, at least the video of the opening brawl got 1.5 million views as of writing this. Meaning that, at least somebody enjoys it but that doesn't mean that i have to enjoy this.

What do you think about RAW's go home show this week? And yes i'm working on a predictions blog post of extreme rules so subscribed to this blog to get honest pro wrestling opinions. Follow me on twitter @omar_playa and 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...

Let's Talk About The White Rabbit In The Room.

I haven't reviewed last year's show mainly because it was so good and clearly as extreme as any ECW match and I'm happy to tell all 3 of y'all that this one is better by several inches or so. Why? *slaps my bald head* HERE'S WHY. The opening match between Sheamus and Gunther's crew ruled harder than the Mongolian empire. It was basically an enhanced version of Sheamus' match with Gunther last night on Smackdown and I loved it. The Brawling Brutes' victory means one thing that is clearly obvious, a rematch between Sheamus and Gunther for the intercontinental championship aka the only series of rematches I don't mind. Ronda Rousey and Liv Morgan delivered in what was a wrestling match equivalent to the X-Men Dark Phoenix movie. While Bianca Belair and Bayley had their equivalent to the first Iron Man movie in that it was decent. Drew McIntyre and Karrion Kross had an okay edition of the "Meaty men slapping meat". That spear from Edge to...

A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess? Smackdown. The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k. The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself. As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title. Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship. Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on V...
