WWE Hell In A Cell 2018 | My Coherent Review.

Hello my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to my coherent review for hell in a cell. Was this PPV straight hot garbage? (see what I just did there). The answer is no. This is the BEST main roster PPV of the year so far other than the ending and here's why.


Preshow Match: The New Day (c) vs Rusev Day

This was an entertaining match. One of my favourites moments of that match was when Kofi did a dive and rusev reversed it into an enziguri of some sort which looked amazing by the way. The match ends with Kofi hitting the trouble in paradise to Aiden English and wins this match and retain the titles. They're teasing a possible break up with rusev and Aiden English for weeks now I think and all I can say is insert sad emoji. 

Main Show: Jeff Hardy vs Randy Orton

First off, I've noticed that Jeff is rocking his old wrestling gear when he was part of the Hardy Boyz with Matt Hardy and I would like to thank Matt for giving us a career to remember. Especially when he was Broken Matt Hardy. 

Anyways, did Jeff Hardy almost kill himself in this match? Yes like when Jeff missed a Splash of some sort and instead hit himself on the table from the top of the cell. There was a cringeworthy moment where Randy grabbed a screwdriver and put it in Jeff's ear. Overall this wasn't the match of the year or anything like that but it was a good match and a good way to kick off the show.  


Charlotte Flair (c) vs Becky Lynch

The promo package for this match was FANTASTIC. Anyways, the match itself was great in my opinion. The entire match was pretty much Becky lynch aiming at Charlotte's arm. The match ends with Charlotte hitting the spear and immediately lynch reversed it into a roll-up pin of some sort and wins the match. 

Becky is your new smackdown live women's champion. After the match, Charlotte tried to shake Becky's hand but instead, Becky refused it and held her championship high. Good on her and congratulations to Becky Lynch. 


Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre (c) vs Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose

Another great match. That frog splash on Drew's back by Rollins was amazing to watch. The match ends with Seth hitting a suplex into a falcon arrow and then out of nowhere McIntyre hit the claymore kick to Seth Rollins only for Dolph to pin Seth and retain the titles. Kudos for all 4 men for giving us a great match. 


AJ Styles (c) vs Samoa Joe

This is when my Internet connection like to mess with me just like Samoa Joe messing with AJ styles psychologically. During the match, Joe hit a powerbomb to styles followed by a modified walls of Jericho aka the Boston crab and then did a STF submission. That was a great sequence. By the end of the match, Samoa Joe hit the kokina clutch and immediately styles reversed that and pins him. By the way, this match had the same finish when Seth Rollins faced Samoa Joe at the Payback PPV just a year ago. Overall a decent match. 


Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella vs The Miz and Maryse

For a mixed tag match, it was pretty decent. The match ends with Brie delivering a roll-up and then Maryse reversed into a roll-up of her own to win this match. Again, a decent match and most likely a rematch is going to happen. Maybe on Smackdown Live or at Smackdown 1000 we don't know but we shall see. 


Ronda Rousey (c) vs Alexa bliss

This was an okay match. Nothing really made this match stand out in my opinion. The match ends with Ronda delivering the armbar submission which made Alexa tap out. In other words, Ronda is still the raw women's champion. (No shit, Omar). 

Roman Reigns (c) vs Braun Strowman with Mick Foley as the guest referee.

During the match, Mick Foley unfortunately botched the count. In other words, Strowman is your uncrowned universal champion and all I can say to that is God bless him. I actually would prefer this match over the opening match if it wasn't for that terrible ending like What was that?  

Well, I hope you enjoyed this review and let me know what do you think about this PPV in the comments below. Make sure you follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions and stay safe smarks.

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

The 5 News Week Look Back At Each Individual Highlight Of Zack Ryder, Lio Rush as Cruiserweight Championship, The Writer Behind The Otis And Mandy Rose Story.

April 15th, 2020 is a memorable day for me. It is definitely the saddest and noteworthy day of not only mine and the fans' lives but as well as the performers and staff who were affected by this. I am of course referring to the day that WWE released dozens of talented, hard-working people.  For those who are new, I usually report on the 5 major or minor news of the week and that was the original plan.  However, since this week is probably going to be known in the future for the releases, I want to instead document 5 of the performers and staff's individual highlights in their tenure with WWE.  Understand that without the hardworking wrestlers, producers, ring crew, writers and the rest of the staff doing what they do best, there wouldn't be a Playard Wrestling Post. Without further ado, Ladies and gentlemen, this is The 5 News Week Look Back.  How Zack Ryder's Popularity In 2011 Played A Role In WWE's YouTube Strategy Today.  It's hard to believe ...

Priscilla Kelly Used A Tampon In A Wrestling Match: Right Or Wrong?

    If you have been away from social media for the past day or so, a wrestler by the name of Priscilla Kelly (who by the way, recently competed in the second Mae Young Classic tournament) competed in a match in which she pulled out her tampon and put it on her rival's mouth. That struck the wrestling world on Twitter with differences of opinions. She did respond to this on Twitter and here's what she had to say: Hey guys. Ya know, it's all fake. 21+ show with a bar. Can't take life so serious all the time. Call me what you will... 🌹 — The Priscilla Kelly (@priscillakelly_) January 5, 2019 What do I think of this? I don't understand why this became as viral as it is considering that we've seen hardcore, brutal, disgusting stuff in a wrestling match before. However, it did get an "ugh" reaction out of me.  Was it right or wrong that she did this? My answer is none considering that wrestling is subjective and there's no such thing ...
