WWE Smackdown Live 10/7/18 | My Coherent Review.



Smackdown live was a bad show that did nothing as a wrestling fan to gain any excitement for extreme rules. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good. No scratch that, i'm gonna give you what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.


WHAT'S OK

The opening segment and the brawl after that

So does SAnitY, and they attack Team Hell No from behind!

 The opening segment was meh. And the brawl after that was fine. Didn't make me go "OHHHHHHHHHHH" or anything like along those lines. That brawl leads to a TEN MAN TAG TEAM match (Ummmmmm no shit omar). I will say this, the segment kinda teased the fact that maybe kane will turn on his best friend? I don't know. Should be interesting. 


Andrade "cien" almas vs Sin cara

The match was surprisingly decent. At one point andrade delivered a devastating stomp to sin cara on the ring apron. Andrade wins with a running knee to sin cara on the middle rope. Hoping andrade can move on to bigger and better things. 

WHAT'S BAD


The main event

The 10-man melee is on!

Daniel Bryan interacting with Eric young was kinda weird considering that daniel bryan had the storyline of overcoming the authority at wrestlemania while young had a similar storyline in TNA depending on who you are. Anyways, the match was ok. The reason why it is on what's bad is because this is sanity's second straight lost which means that's a BOOKING HOLE similar to a plot hole on movies/television shows. And yes they were teaming up with the bludgeon brothers but the problem is eric young young took that pinfall. I get it they wanna make the bludgeon brothers not take the fall instead to make them look good going into extreme rules as tag team champions but i mean, WHY? Why can sanity and the bludgeon brothers actually win this match? I simply don't get it.  



This.

I will talk about more about this feud in my predictions post (make sure you follow this blog for that) but this entire feud made asuka look like a FUCKING idiot. Not once in this feud made asuka look somewhat dominate. At least RAW got that aspect of a killing machine right. Look, i like carmella as a heel but even she is better than this. 



WHY? WHY? Tell creative it's so boring. WHY? WHY? They will do it anyways.

if you understood this reference. You my friend are amazing. Anyways, the first reason why i don't like it is that the AJ vs nakamura match last night was a wrestlemania rematch according to Tom Phillips which doesn't make any sense because they were FOUR rematches since wrestlemania. The second reason is that the DQ finish caused by rusev and jeff hardy saving AJ  and you guessed it, leads to a tag team match. *sigh*

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...

WWE Backlash 2020 | A Coherent Review.

Overall, a decent PPV that was highlighted by a few good matches and one greatest match (yea, yea, the pun is worn out already but I just had to).  As a tradition on this site, I've not seen the pre-show match, however, I've heard it was solid.  Bayley And Sasha Banks vs Alexa Bliss And Nikki Cross vs The IIconics For The Women's Tag Team Championship.  A decent opening match of the evening. Peyton Royce did a unique crossbody onto every participant in the match.  Moments later, Royce and Billie Kay did their double team move on Sasha Banks but you know who also did a double team move?  Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss with a double team DDT on Peyton Royce.  As soon as Bliss hits the Twisted Bliss on Peyton Royce, Sasha Banks quickly rolled Alexa up for the victory and retained dos straps.  The tag team championship reign of the golden role models continues (No sh*t, Omar). Also, I wanna briefly speak on the Alexa Bliss situation....

Jim Cornette's Opinion On WWE's Deal With FOX.

Jim Cornette recently appeared on Talk Is Jericho about the state of wrestling ( Click here to listen and download the whole thing, it's really good) and talked about a number of topics but the interesting thing about this discussion is his opinion on WWE's deal with FOX. Here's what he had to say (shout out to WrestleZone for the transcript):  " Vince just got $2 billion for a TV deal. People are looking at All In, the resurgence of New Japan, and all that, but that’s going to be the most important thing. Now people with platforms are interested in wrestling again.  There’s a lot of money in wrestling again. For a while ratings were meh, and they still are, but at the same point $2 billion, how can you argue with that? In 2011, when Sinclair Broadcasting bought Ring of Honor it instantly became the second most watched television program because it was on 60 local stations.  That was still a wide gap from WWE, and IMPACT has gone in the other direction becaus...
