WWE Smackdown Live 21/8/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall an okay show. Could've been better in my opinion. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Let discuss wrestling shall we? 


WHAT'S GOOD 

Becky Lynch's Promo

Two nights after getting pinned by new SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch addresses her shocking post-match attack.
 That was great and she carried herself pretty well in this. She basically said that her hard work and her moment was stolen by Charlotte and the fans thinks of becky as an afterthought. 

Charlotte's music hit and she stormed into the ring and they both beat the crap outta of each other. If there's one person that's an afterthought, it's asuka. I don't know of that has to do with anything but it is what it is.

Samoa joe's psychological warfare part II.

“Oh Wendyyyyyy,” Joe says.
There was a interview with AJ conducted by renee young and it ended quickly because samoa joe came outta nowhere and choked out AJ, pointed at the camera and shouted AJ's wife's name "OH WENDYYYY!". That was great and the way samoa joe shouted Wendy was hilarious. 

Tag Team Title match

That was a chaotic match. Both shows (RAW and Smackdown Live) delivered great main events. If I told you everything that happened throughout this match, this would've been a long post. By the end of the match, Xavier did a springboard elbow drop on harper through the table and pins him to the count of three. The new day won the tag team titles for the 5th time. Congrats to them. 

WHAT'S OK

The opening segment 

Brie unloads on The A-Lister...
Not a bad segment to be honest. The miz starts the promo with a typical heel swerve. Wow, I've never seen that before. Anyways, he talks about how he "ended" the 8 year saga with him and bryan and how he beat daniel with one punch. 

Outcomes bryan and he called miz a coward while the miz was talking which I thought it was funny. Maryse then grabs the microphone and said than daniel is nothing more daniel bella. Brie bella's music hit (unpopular opinion, I actually don't mind her theme song) and she wasted no time and gave some punches to miz. 

Daniel then said that he spoke to GM Paige and a mixed tag match is in place at hell in a cell between miz and his wife vs daniel bryan and his wife. Now thinking about it, we've seen a lot of mixed tag matches on WWE this year. 


Jeff Hardy vs Randy Orton

 That match ended quick. During the match, Randy Orton grabbed jeff's ear which was cringe-worthy. Randy wins Via DQ and then Jeff decides to beat the crap outta randy and he put randy on the table near the stage and delivered a Swanton Bomb. This feud warrants a hell in a cell stipulation at least in my opinion.  

Naomi vs Peyton royce

 Forgettable match but royce did take a big W in this. She wins with the fisherman suplex. 

WHAT'S BAD

This match

The difference between this and the tag team title match is that at summerslam, The match ended in a DQ therefore it progressed that storyline. This one was just a rematch for the sake of a rematch. Rusev wins with the accolade. 

My question is, what do you think about SmackDown live last night? Let me know in the comments below and make sure to follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE Clash Of Champions 2019 | My Coherent Review.

This Clash of Champions show was one enormous meh. Also, AJ Styles in the pre-show? That's a first but that match was pretty decent as well as the cruiserweight championship match.  Seth Rollins And Braun Strowman vs Dolph Ziggler And Robert Roode For The RAW Tag team Championship.  During this tag team title match, Ziggler hits a devastating looking DDT to Seth Rollins outside the ring. The odd couple then delivered quick tag team moves but moments later Rollins reversed Ziggler's sleeper hold into a falcon arrow to which Rollins tagged Braun Strowman and took out Ziggler and Roode for a bit.  This match has ended with a Glorious DDT from Robert Roode to Seth Rollins after Braun accidentally knocked out Rollins and Ziggler threw the monster among men over the top rope.  A decent opener with a predictable ending that I don't mind. Maybe a triple threat match between the odd couple, The Viking Raiders and The O.C in Gallows and Anderson for the tag ...

WWE NXT 2.0 14/9/21 | A Coherent Review.

NXT 2.0 or as I like to call it, NXT "I'M DIFFERENT" edition.  Let's get the positives out of the way. I like the set and the way it compliments NXT's new water multicolour look. In a world with main roster WWE and its giant screen, the presentation definitely stood out.  The entrance stage set also gave me a bit of a Wrestlemania 27 vibes and because of it, I'm always going to remind myself of that dogsh*t of a PPV so that's definitely a negative.  The main question is, Was the inaugural episode of NXT "third times the charm" edition any good?  Yes. The main thing NXT did right is how they showcase some of the newer faces on the brand.  There were a few head-scratching moments but as a whole, I enjoyed the episode.  Images via WWE.com Bron Breakker vs LA Knight.  We all know that Bron Breakker is an awful name (Bronson Rechsteiner was perfectly fine) but my God, that dude has the LOOK!   I mean, if I had to choose to rebrand myself in WWE, I...

WWE RAW 28/10/19 | My Coherent Review.

Not an enjoyable show like last week's show but it was okay for a typical RAW episode but for a PPV build up, it wasn't good at all.  The Women's Tag Team Champions Opens The Show And….. Paige started off this episode of Monday Night RAW and introduces the Kabuki Warriors which Paige hasn't been on their side for weeks and I'll explain that last comment.  Paige was putting over the warriors and Asuka grabbed her microphone immediately which led to Paige getting her mic back which led to Kairi Sane grabbing Paige's mic. Asuka splits that green mist to Paige to which Becky Lynch came out and brawls with Kairi Sane.  That betrayal from the Kabuki Warriors made a lot of sense considering that Paige didn't benefit them other than being their English spokesperson. Gotta give a big shout out to Paige for selling that green mist without taking a bump. That was great.  Becky Lynch vs Kairi Sane.  That was a very good opener. Kairi Sane reve...
