WWE Smackdown Live 24/7/18 | My Coherent Review.


Smackdown live was a very good show that does a great job to build off of summerslam unlike RAW. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok but not what's bad and the reason being is because the show was good that i didn't have any particular issues with the show. Here we go. By the way, did you know that there's a all women's PPV called evolution that takes place in the nassau coliseum in long island, NY on October 28th? I didn't know that.  


WHAT'S GOOD


Randy Orton's promo

… including unfinished business with Hardy and being No. 9 on the SmackDown Top 10 List.
OH MY GOD. What a promo. I feel like this randy orton reminds me of late 2008, 2009 randy orton which i CLEARLY don't mind. He talks about the reason for his beat down on jeff hardy on smackdown and on extreme rules last week is because of you the fans. He also stated that how he's been consisted in the WWE for 16 years and never got the respect he deserves and the fans would prefer someone like a jeff hardy over a randy orton. The promo ends with randy telling the audience to only refer to him as three of the most devastatingly destructive letters in sports entertainment and that is  R    K    O. Great stuff by randy orton. 


Andrade "cien" almas vs Rusev

Very good match considering that they're technically heels but again good match by those two. A backstage segment with aiden english and lana arguing and then rusev shouted "ENOUGH!' and said that both of them are not good for rusev day. Insert sad emoji. 


Paige to announce AJ styles's opponent for the WWE title at SummerSlam

This is an awesome segment. First off paige as a the general manager of smackdown is amazing. She great at it. AJ styles mentioning the evolution PPV in a couple of months felt natural even though i forgot to mention this on my RAW review (which you can click here) last night and that them mentioning the evolution PPV is the new 9.99 when they where promoting the network years ago. James ellsworth comes out and basically talks nonsense as usual. Paige decides to fire him and the security guards threw him outside. Meanwhile samoa joe outta nowhere chokes out AJ and then signs the contract to become the number one contender for the WWE championship at summerslam. Great segment in my opinion and we'll see where they go form here. 


WHAT'S OK 


Samoa joe vs R Truth

Speaking of samoa joe, nothing happened really. Samoa joe wins with the coquina clutch. A complette squash match. 



Asuka vs Billie Kay

Speaking of squash matches, Asuka wins with the kick of the side of bilie kay's head. I don't mind the squash considering that she's been looked like a doofus since her feud with carmella and she needs a bit of momentum in her. 


Becky lynch vs carmella

Even though i like carmella as a heel, the thing i dislike about her is the in ring skills and surprisingly, this is a decent match. Becky obviously wins win the disarmer gaining the number one contendership in the process. 


New Day vs Sanity 

Image result for The New Day
Decent tag match. New day wins, advancing in the tag team tournament. I didn't mind sanity losing and the reason being is because if they win the whole tournament and face the bludgeon brothers, that's a heel on heel dynamic and i don't wanna see that chemistry and creative had a tough call in this. Usos will face the bar next week and i'm looking forward to it. 


The Miz & Mrs premiere party

I thought the segment was fine and the placing made sense considering that they're promoting the show (speaking of which, i have to check out the show in curiosity). I liked the aspect of promoting the show but at the same time, furthering the storyline. Bravo creative, bravo.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: A Broserweight Road Trip To Portland, Britt Baker Addresses Her Attack On Yuka Sakazaki Last Week.

While this was a typical night for AEW, NXT, however, had a go-home show to deliver just days before the next anticipated Takeover show in Portland, Oregon.  But, NXT's final show before the second Takeover of 2020 didn't bring it, unfortunately, in terms of quality as the 20th episode of AEW Dynamite was the better show this week even though AEW Dynamite is a hit or miss program.  NXT    Highlights.  Roderick Strong vs Bronson Reed. Before the match, a pissed off Roderick Strong demanded an apology from the Velveteen Dream given that Dream put his wife and child's face on his trucks.  By the way, Bronson Reed's theme song is killer and so is this match. A slow, technical, old-school type of match that wouldn't fit the big man on paper but the execution was a different story.  The lights turned purple and Reed hits the suicide dive but he missed a Samoan splash that led to a knee strike from Strong and wins the match.  Then,...

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far. An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs — #WOKEN, yet #BROKEN, Matt Hardy (@MATTHARDYBRAND) October 23, 2018 My heart right now ....
