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



Smackdown was a good show that feels fresh and exciting each and every week. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good and what's ok and the reason why there's no what's bad is because the show was so good that i didn't find any particular flaws with the show. Now, on with the review. 


WHAT'S GOOD 

Randy Orton's promo

Once again, randy orton killed it with this promo and the way the promo ended the same way like last week which i was a bit disappointed at first but i don't mind it when i was gathering notes for this review. Overall again, a great promo. 

Aj Styles's promo

I feel like this side or rather a serious side of AJ is what this feud needs and sparks my excitement quickly and i like the fact that they're bring up their TNA history without mentioning it of course. And yes, samoa joe laughing after the promo ended was fantastic. 

This whole Lana, Aiden English, Rusev Storyline so far

I don't why but week by week this storyline is getting really intriguing by the minute. Now the match before this was okay but a good showcase for lana especially. Looks like their setting up for a mixed tag match and if wrestlemania 34 taught me is that WWE can bring a great mixed tag match but that's just me. 

The Tag team championship number one contender finals match

WOW! A tag team division match actually main evented Smackdown live. Who knew? Anyways, this was a great tag match that at some aspects of this match made me think that the bar was actually gonna win this match. That's the sign of a great match and just by watching this match, both men looked like they gave a crap about this tag team division and i loved it every single minute of it. New day wins here with the midnight hour. 

The Miz once again kills it 

Miz promises to expose Bryan as being “beneath him.”
Like the title above, The miz once again kills it with this promo and the promo basically states that The miz will expose daniel bryan at summerslam and then daniel bryan quickly comes out, beating two security guards only for the miz to hit bryan with the glass that you put your flowers in. Great segment and i approve the bryon saxton slander from the miz.   

WHAT'S OK 

Charlotte and Becky lynch vs the IIconics

Nothing really happen in this match. The match ends with charlotte putting on the figure eight to peyton royce to win this match. If becky really turns heel after charlotte wins the itle and win the championship, i would like to see a becky lynch vs asuka match at wrestlemania or something. Now that's intriguing. 

Shinsuke Nakamura vs R Truth

I would never thought that r truth of all people would come out to the ring after the United Stated champion. Anyways, i forgot how good R truth is in the ring. Shinsuke wins here with the kinshasa. 

Bludgeon Brothers vs Local Jobbers

It was a typical big guy or big men in this case, squash match. The bludgeon brothers wins with a powerbomb position into a top rope clothesline.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
