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 Eyeing On New Creative Writers.

Last week on RAW, The McMahon family announced that there will be new faces and fresh match ups. What better way to invoke change than to seek out new writers with different ideas right?  WWE are actively seeking for new writer's assistant positions with at least two years in writing television and or/ production experience and preferably but not necessary, a degree in Film/TV/Drama, Media Studies, Journalism, Communications, English, or related field of study.  For everyone who thinks they can do it better, here's your opportunity. Merry Christmas! https://t.co/FJch1rOXCM — Jimmy Korderas (@jimmykorderas) December 24, 2018 What do I think of this? As long as Vince is in charge, unfortunately, nothing is going to change for the better of the product but that's just me.  Let me know in the comments on how you would change the WWE product and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks. 

WWE RAW 13/9/21 | A Coherent Review.

Ya boy took a week off of talking about wrestling which is something I usually need after watching a single episode of Monday Night RAW but consistency is key, people!  In recent weeks, however, Monday Night RAW doesn't feel like mental torture and the latest episode is no exception.  Images via WWE.com Big E Was Like, "I'm Definitely Cashing In My Contract".  The lovable wholesome gyrating big man name Big E interacted with Randy Orton as well as Bobby Lashley ahead of the WWE title match between Bob and Randal.  The reason is obvious. Big E wants to cash in seeing Becky Lynch's mother again (that's not it?).  All lame jokes aside, the big man did cash in the contract to become the NEW WWE champion later in the episode after a successful title defence from Bobby Lashley against Randy Orton.  Words cannot describe how f**king happy I am seeing one of my favourite performers finally capture the gold which was long overdue if you ask me.  I will go as far as to

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara
