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.

Should Dave Meltzer Get Rid Of His Rating System?

So a few weeks ago, good old Dave Meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter gave the Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny omega match at dominion 2018 a 7-star rating. According to the interent wrestling database , this match is by far his HIGHEST match rating ever (i don't blame him because the match was amazing). So statistically, this is his favourite match of all time . Now, why I'm writing this now?  Well, his best match ratings have been a consistent 5 stars since 1983 with the exception of all the Omega vs Okada matches and the Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match at AJPW's Budokan hall show in June of 1994.  There are fans that take his match ratings as an offence somehow like "Why he rates X match better than Y match?" or thinks that he "hates" WWE which is ridiculous considering that he gave three WWE matches a 5 star ratings just this past year. One was the ladder match to crown the first ever NXT North American champion, the Johnny Garga...

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 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 ...

WWE Smackdown Live 19/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This show was overall, a skippable show just like RAW yesterday and here's why.  Opening segment.  The show kicked off with Shane McMahon with his usual cheap pop. After that, Shane McMahon announced that Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Tommaso Ciampa will be on SmackDown Live just like RAW last night (click here to read my RAW review).  Out came The Miz and he said that he hasn't stop thinking about their match at Elimination Chamber. Miz also said he admitted that he used Shane because Miz wanted to make Shane McMahon understand where's Miz's coming from.  Miz then wanted a rematch between him, Shane McMahon and the Usos for the SmackDown Live tag team championship to which the Usos came out and insulted The Miz.  That led to Shane McMahon saying that the rematch is on but at Fastlane in two weeks. So we got the first official match scheduled for Fastlane and considering that Shane is a McMahon and has all the Authority, I do...
