WWE RAW 27/8/18 | My Coherent Review.


RAW was a decent show in my opinion. Not a great show but not an offensive episode to watch. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.  


WHAT'S GOOD. 

The opening segment

Mr. Monster in the Bank mocks Reigns for getting “his boys” to protect him last week.

I really like this segment. Roman Reigns has held up pretty well on the mic in my opinion. Braun Strowman announcing his cash in for the championship at a hell in a cell match.  Dolph and Drew coming out and baron announcing a tag match was generic RAW stale formula but it was a good way to start the show in my opinion. 

Seth Rollins vs Owens

First off, what a promo by Kevin Owens bro.  So good especially when he spoke French and pissed off the Toronto crowd. Absolute GOLD. The match was FREAKING FANTASTIC in my opinion. 

Seth delivering a triple suicide dives looks awesome, Kevin Owens doing a brutal looking crossface, Kevin Owens delivering a stunner to Seth.  So many near falls. 

The match ends with Owens missing a moonsault and Seth immediately delivered the curb stomp, puns Owens to the count of three and retains the championship. Again, what a match. After the match, Kevin took the microphone and declares that he quits. I don't what was that but it is interesting. 

Elias Concert

Elias was you know, doing his thing until Trish Stratus returns and their interaction was GOLD but that let to a Natalya and Alicia Fox match which I talked about it if you scroll down to my what's ok. 

WHAT'S OK

Baron Corbin vs Finn Balor

It makes sense that he made the match considering that he's been asking for Kurt Angle the match last week and him losing clean to the demon at SummerSlam. 

The match itself was decent but the Toronto crowd made me laugh with their chants like "Corbin sucks" and "you can't wrestle". The match ended in a DQ but Corbin restarted the match into a no DQ and wins the match quickly with an end of days. 

What if the match has a stipulation that if baron loses then he loses his active GM role or something like make it interesting in order to make this feud have a somewhat satisfying conclusion. 

Sasha Banks vs Dana Brooke

I thought Bayley looks ridiculous with that glasses but the match itself was quick. Sasha wins with the bank statement. 

The B team vs The Revival

Forgettable match. The revival wins the match but they did cut a good promo about the tag division. 

Natalya vs Alicia Fox

The match was quick. Natalya wins with the sharpshooter. A backstage segment happen between Trish, Ronda, Natalya and the Bella twins and they (the Bella twins)  are back for in-ring action next week against the riott squad and all I can say is meh. 

WHAT'S BAD

Dean Ambrose vs Jinder Mahal

Man this match of RAW is a great example of why the third hour is a straight ZZZZZZ. Dean wins with the dirty deeds. 

Bobby Lashley vs The Ascension

First off, how's facing the ascension in any way a "punishment" for Lashley. Anyways, Bobby Lashley wins with the dominator.

The match was meh but that ending was infuriating. One of the WORST Ending I've seen all year. Really, Braun Strowman turns heel? What a backwards thinking by creative. Why? Why? Why? Why? This was so damn stupid. You know you can build that match with both guys being babyfaces right? 

Sounds off in the comments below on what do you think about RAW last night and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE Smackdown Live 28/8/18 | My Coherent Review.

Overall, Smackdown Live was better than RAW in terms of having a somewhat good ending. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok and the bad parts about this show were none in my opinion. Without further ado, this is my coherent, honest review of this week's Smackdown Live.  WHAT'S GOOD    New day's celebration  You have the new day celebration with their interaction with booker T and the addition of the spinaroonie or the spinaroonie, in this case, was entertaining and an odd but amusing opening segment.  Daniel Bryan vs Andrade "Cien" almas   Daniel Bryan's promo with Brie Bella by his side was like the Naomi vs Billie Kay match, it was there. However, the match itself was pretty good in my opinion. That chop by almas looked brutal bro like damn. Daniel Bryan wins Via DQ by miz beating him, almas hitting the hammerlock DDT, Maryse hitting a brutal looking DDT to brie bella and then miz hitting the skull cru

WWE Smackdown 14/2/20 | My Coherent Review.

Last night was my 2nd anniversary of pumping out written content on this site and I thought since this show has delivered 6 or sometimes 3 out of 10s for 4 months now, I've written some lyrics about my thoughts on Smackdown in the style of the current song opening for the blue brand.  If you wanna put the instrumental version of ACDC's Are You Ready while reading this then that's cool too.  *Cue the intro* Are you Ready?  Are you ready for mediocrity! Then, get ready for disappointment.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.   Even Bischoff.  Are you ready for mediocrity! *ends with some guitar solos*.  The lyrics may suck but it is at least better than whatever the hell Justin Bieber meant when he sang his current single "Yummy".  Now, on with the review. The Return Of A Moment Of Bliss (Unlike The Return Of The Dirt Sheets, Nobody Really Cares).  Both Bliss and Nikki Cross talked about their c

WWE RAW 6/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

This episode of RAW actually made me look forward to Extreme Rules and that's something WWE doesn't do all that well in recent years. It was a great effort by the powers that be.  Dolph Ziggler Picks The Stipulation For The WWE Championship At Extreme Rules: The Horror Show.  McIntyre is waiting for Dolph Ziggler to pick the stipulation for their championship match at Extreme Rules.  Drew got his wish as Dolph Ziggler said that Drew has been stabbing people in the back and that includes the person that Ziggler brought up but not verbally, Heath Slater.  In a very emotional promo, Slater told his former 3MB mate that he was there for Drew McIntyre when Drew was fired from WWE in 2014 but the Scotsmen wasn't there for Slater when he was fired this year.  So, the one-man-band challenged him to a match and the WWE champion accepted. How was the match?  It was a squash bout. Drew wins with the claymore to which Ziggler was picking on Heath and Mc
