WWE RAW 6/8/18 | My Coherent Review.

Man, it feels like the RAW creative team for the most part, doesn't care about what they put on television. The show was once again skippable at best. 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

Ronda Rousey's RAW debut

For someone that's gonna face alexa bliss for the RAW women's championship at summerslam, i thought this was an impressive showcase for ronda and it makes her look good going into summerslam. Yes this was a glorified squash match but i understood the context of this but i could see why someone might not like this just because they've been cautious for this match only to be nothing but a squash.

Paul heyman interview

I am not a fan of this storyline mainly because creative's intend is to build sympathy toward roman reigns which in my opinion roman is more somebody that you either love or hate not to feel sorry for. However i thought this interview, the way he sold this was fantastic and if you told me that he was actually crying his eyes out then i would believe you. That how good paul heyman is.

WHAT'S OK

Roman Reigns vs Baron Corbin

Now the opening segment was a typical RAW opening segment but quicker which i appreciate. Anyways, the match was fine. At one point baron corbin hit a deep six and roman sold it pretty well in my opinion. The match ends when finn balor distracted corbin only for him to eat a spear 1 2 3, roman wins. Apparently, the feud between balor and corbin is still happening *sigh*.

Jinder Mahal vs Baron Strowman

The problem i had with this feud is that the way braun strowman treated kevin owens during the extreme rules build last month and the kevin owens show before this match kinda addressed that problem. Anyways, the matched ended on a DQ because braun hit jinder with his money in the bank briefcase.

Seth rollins vs Drew mcintyre and Dolph ziggler

This match was supposed to be a regular tag team match between seth and a mystery tag partner vs drew and dolph and everybody was like "OMG, is amborse coming back?" and he didn't unsurprisingly. Seth instead chose roman after seth refused a tag offer from tyler brezze but roman wasn't part of that match due to a request from Stephanie McMahon. The match itself last a short period of time nothing special really. Dolph and drew wins with dolph hitting the superkick.

The B team vs The Revival

Before i talk about this match. Let me addressed the B team's theme music. This theme, this theme. SUCKS! SUCKS! SUCKS! (Speaking of theme songs, I'm working on a top 5 best NXT takeover theme songs so follow the blog for updates) Anyways, the match ended after 45 seconds because outcomes bray wyatt and "WOKEN" Matt hardy taking the place of both bo dallas's partner and scott dawson's partner and then hit their respective finishers on them. This feud is dead to me just like their tag team division.

Rezar vs Titus O'Nell

I'm surprised it took him this long to beat titus o'nell. Rezar wins with a spinebuster via a distraction from akam which i wonder why?

WHAT'S BAD

Mojo losing this match

Let me get this straight. Why does mojo take a L in this match? You're trying to create/establish a new star and just squashed tyler brezze last week and now he loses a match to bobby roode who's been doing nothing since his move from Smackdown Live. Wouldn't make more sense if rawley wins this match gaining his momentum in the process?

Bobby Lashley interrupts Elias AGAIN!

I don't what are they feuding over. Say what you want about the finn balor vs baron corbin feud but at least they have a reason as to why they're feuding. Again, i need a reason as to why they're feuding because i don't have one clearly.

Riott Squad vs The hugger and Boss connection

First off, welcome back ruby riott. Second, why i'm seeing this match again? And the worst part about it is that 9 times out of 10 the rematch has a different winner. In other words, 50/50 lazy booking. With the return of ruby riott, this will probably end up being a 6 women tag between the riott squad and bayley, sasha and ember moon on RAW or possibly at summerslam.

Sound off in the comments on what do you think about RAW this week and follow me on twitter @omar_playa. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website. I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows. The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010. The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole. On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up. On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!? Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit". Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time. So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

Let's Talk About The State Of Wrestlemania 37.

I usually save those kinds of pieces for my weekly news series, The 5 News Week due to how modern this subject is and how my essays usually dwell on the past. Usually, it is too early to talk about an upcoming Wrestlemania in October but not this time especially since we're still in a pandemic. This is a topic I've been thinking about all month and I had to write my thoughts on it. Let's answer this question right away whether Wrestlemania 37 will happen in SoFii stadium next year? from CBS Los Angeles The answer is an obvious no. But, I want to try to dig deeper and see exactly where we stand today. As of me writing this, Wrestlemania: Hollywood edition is still scheduled to take place in SoFi stadium despite an outlet that shall not be named, claiming otherwise. This is either sheer blind optimism or downright idiotic from Dubya, Dubya E. WrestleVotes did mention back in July that while the event is still going to take place in the stadium,...
