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.

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking).  However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?”  In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t.  There are fans out there on the interweb that b...

WWE RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending.  I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List".  Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down.  Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%.  Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW.  Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...

AEW Double Or Nothing | My Coherent Review.

I was supposed to post this review two hours after the show aired but my internet connection went down for several hours and I got extremely frustrated and if you’re addicted to the interwebs, that is probably the scariest thing ever other than your worst fear of course. Anyways, I, unfortunately, haven't watched the two pre-show matches because I was out working. So, the million dollar question, was AEW's Double Or Nothing a great show? I'm happy to announce that it was an outstanding PPV overall. One of the problems I had with ALL IN is the match card placements and they fixed it in this PPV.  Oh, and I'm warning you guys that this PPV review is longer than my Wrestlemania 35 review (which you can click here ) just because a lot of things happened on this show. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find pictures for each match so y’all are only going to see the writing.  Double Or Nothing started off with the Hamilton stars sang the American National anthem (omg, can Ja...
