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.

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 White Rabbit In The Room.

I haven't reviewed last year's show mainly because it was so good and clearly as extreme as any ECW match and I'm happy to tell all 3 of y'all that this one is better by several inches or so. Why? *slaps my bald head* HERE'S WHY. The opening match between Sheamus and Gunther's crew ruled harder than the Mongolian empire.  It was basically an enhanced version of Sheamus' match with Gunther last night on Smackdown and I loved it.  The Brawling Brutes' victory means one thing that is clearly obvious, a rematch between Sheamus and Gunther for the intercontinental championship aka the only series of rematches I don't mind.  Ronda Rousey and Liv Morgan delivered in what was a wrestling match equivalent to the X-Men Dark Phoenix movie.  While Bianca Belair and Bayley had their equivalent to the first Iron Man movie in that it was decent.  Drew McIntyre and Karrion Kross had an okay edition of the "Meaty men slapping meat".  That spear from Edge to...

A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

  Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess?  Smackdown.  The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k.  The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself.   As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title.   Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship.  Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on V...
