WWE Smackdown Live 17/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was a decent show that has it's problems but again a decent show nevertheless. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Let's discuss wrestling shall we?

WHAT'S GOOD


The Miz's "Funeral" segment

He promises Daniel Bryan’s career is dead and his days of main-eventing WrestleMania are over.
Started odd but ended pretty great. He shitted all over daniel bryan which is typical but awesome miz and i liked the fact that the funeral symbolizes how the reunion of daniel bryan and kane was dead within few weeks. Hence the funeral itself which i thought it was clever in my opinion. Great stuff by the miz. 

AJ styles vs Andrade "Cien" Almas

This was a damn good match. I could watch these guys wrestle all day and i hope the rematch will have a stake or a sense of importance like challenging for the WWE championship or something in the future. If i could nitpick, i wish the match would've went a bit longer but again, i'm just nitpicking. AJ Styles wins with the calf crusher and to be honest i don't mind the win and the reason being is because andrade looked good in this match in my opinion and it was a great showcase on who andrade is capable of in the ring. 

Heel Randy is back

OH MY GOD. I've been waiting for this randy orton for god knows how long. Now the opening segment and the main event was decent but again i'm intrigued like really intrigued. Randy pulling jeff's ear looks so brutal like in the picture above but i'm excited for a vicious, prick randy orton. 

WHAT'S OK


Eric young vs Kofi Kingston

Decent match. Noting groundbreaking or anything like that. Eric wins here with a german suplex position into a neckbreaker which actually looked pretty impressive.

Samoa Joe vs Tye Dillinger

A complete squash match and to be honest, tye is better than this in my opinion but i could see why creative did this considering that he hasn't been on TV for weeks now. Joe wins with the kokina clutch.  

WHAT'S BAD


The women's championship situation. 

After forcing Mandy Rose to tap to the Dis-arm-her, Becky Lynch thanks the WWE Universe and talks about how great it feels to win.

The match was fine, her promo was fine but becky facing carmella next week gave me two problems with this. One, where's asuka in this? In my opinion she (asuka) deserves a rematch considering that she got screwed by outside shenanigans twice and two why's becky facing carmella in order to face carmella for the championship at summerslam? Her reasoning for the championship opportunity makes sense considering that just this past month, she beat 5 women in singles competition i believe and becky facing carmella next week feels completely unnecessary.

WWE RAW 16/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another L for the red brand in terms of overall quality. And they do not need that L considering that it's the final show before this year's SummerSlam event.  Images via WWE.com   Randal Keith Orton And Riddal Are Back Together?  Randy explained his actions last week, stating that he simply doesn't owe anyone an explanation because he's Randy Orton (okay?).  Out came the most obnoxious person in Riddle and he wanted RKBRO to reunite. Styles showed up to hype up his big goof in Omos.  That RKO last week was as confusing as the thought of Jupiter Ascending being a "good movie".    The question is, did the band realigned themselves once again?  The answer was a soft no if you stopped watching the show after the Riddle and AJ Styles match (I don't blame ANYONE that stops watching Monday Night RAW).  However, that became a solid yes after Randy's bout with Omos. Am I the only one that feels kinda mid about this?  It's not terri...

WWE NXT Takeover: XXV | My Coherent Review.

Look guys, I don't need to tell you this. This was a great show. Now, you're probably be asking "if you don't need to tell me this then why are you to quote yourself, TELLING ME THIS!?" Good question but the reason why is because I like to talk about great pro wrestling.  Matt Riddle vs Roderick Strong.  An absolute must rewatch match for me and a must watch for you guys if you haven't seen it. Match started off with some amateur wrestling style takedown from both guys.  Then, Roderick Strong hit a modified back suplex on the ring apron. By then, Riddle hits Strong with a brainbuster. Riddle had the highlight of that match by hitting Strong with a go to sleep (yes, that go to sleep) into a German suplex with a bridge.  Roderick hits a powerbomb pin into a Boston crab then the match ends with Riddle delivered with a move that I wish I knew what the name of it was.  Street Profits vs The Forgotten Sons (in Steve Cutler and Wesley Blake) vs The Undi...

WWE RAW 31/5/21 | A Coherent Review.

I was recently reading my RAW reviews from 2019 and the thing that is common in all of those reviews was that while I had some issues with those episodes, the shows were decent as a whole.  2021, however, is, of course, a different story. Ever since the fall of last year, I've been consistently getting terrible episode after terrible episode that is giving SNL a run for its money.  At this point, criticizing Monday Night RAW is a God damn routine.  Images via WWE.com   The Miz TV. Special Guest, Charlotte Flair.  As told by the headline above, the show opened with Miz TV. A segment that literally nobody looks forward to.   You had John Morrison legit wearing a necklace that is covered in garlic for protecting himself from any supernatural thing appearing which was PEAK CRINGE.  Charlotte Flair stated that she'll send Rhea Ripley to hell in 3 weeks (by the way, this is still a weird decision to move the Hell In A Cell show in the summer but whateve...
