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*

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 Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WWE Smackdown 16/7/21 | A Coherent Review.

Yay. Crowds are back which means *in the tone of BackStreet* What chants boys are back!  All lame jokes aside, it feels weird to see a full crowd once again in WWE programming.  It almost felt like it was a new invention and not something we've had for what it feels like an eternity now.  And WWE actually tried here because this episode was enjoyable as a whole.  Vinnie Mac with his uncreative, fickle a**, welcomed the most oppressed group (beside gamers) in human history aka wrestling fans to SmackDown.  Images via WWE.com Roman Reigns And The Usos vs Edge, Rey And Dominik Mysterio.  The live audience got electric for the Rated R superstar and I can't say that I blame them.  Speaking of the fans, they were into the bout until it ended via a roll-up from Jey Uso to Rey Mysterio. All 3 guys then attacked each other in a post-match beatdown but Edge stood tall in the end.  This is one of those bouts where the crowd made it into an 8 out of 10 instea...
