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 28/12/20 | A Bit Late Coherent Review.

Before I start this review, I wanna say rest in peace to Jon Huber better known as the person behind the character of Luke Harper and Brodie Lee.  It was a tough, painful 3 days for the pro wrestling industry and I certainly felt that.  If there's one thing I've learned from the number of great stories being told by the people he has worked with is that Jon is a charming, funny and overall a fantastic human being that loves his family.  After reading the countless amount of fantastic tribute posts (including from the likes of Molly Belle of Wrestle Inn and Andrew Thompson of Post Wrestling ), that bit about Jon as a family man made me think of my current relationship with my father and the ways I'm trying to improve from my standpoint.  I know this is a cheese pizza saying but tell the people you cared about that you love 'em because that line might make their day.  So. Thank you, Jon Huber, for being the light that brightens everybody's darkness.  Now, Ho...

WWE Smackdown Live 30/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown Live yesterday was a skippable show other than the opening segment and match in my opinion. Now usually on my RAW/Smackdown Live review, I break down what's good, what's ok and what's bad. For the first time, I'm only gonna tell you what's ok given that this show was again a skippable show and here we go.  WHAT'S OK The opening segment  This is the probably one of if not most noteworthy moment this week mainly because as you might know, there were reports going around that John Cena and Daniel Bryan were out of Crown Jewel and the reports are indeed true and it makes sense, especially for John Cena considering that he's an actor now and he needs to maintain his PR status. The segment itself was decent. Loved both guys' intensity and that segment leads to a WWE championship match and speaking of which............. Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles  Decent match. Expected a better from these two but again, decent nevertheless but...

WWE Smackdown 24/4/20 | A Coherent Review.

This week's Smackdown show was decent but it wasn't as strong as the previous weeks and *hits his head a few times* here's why.  The New Day Celebrates Their Title Victory. The show kicked off with the now 8th time WWE tag team champions, The New Day and like the title above, they were celebrating their big title win last week (No sh*t, Omar).  During the segment, Kofi mentioned that there's nothing wrong with pointing out that they have more title reigns than The Hart Foundation, Edge and Christian, Demolition, The New Age Outlaws etc because it's them being proud of their accomplishments.  Out came Lucha House Party, The Miz and John Morrison and they pretty much said that they deserve a title shot. The Forgotten Sons showed up to tell The New Day, Lucha House Party and every other tag team watching that they will never be forgotten.  They lived up to that statement as the Forgotten Sons destroyed Lucha House Party and The New Day.  ...
