WWE RAW 10/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

RAW was once again bad, boring and frustrating to watch and also nothing really happened on this show. Why you ask? Well, here are my reasons as to why. Here we go. 

WHAT'S GOOD

Triple H's promo

 This was short but an affect promo. This build for the Undertaker and Triple H at the super showdown in Australia so far has been better than ANYTHING on RAW right now in my opinion. 


WHAT'S OK

Nikki Bella vs Ruby riott 


There was a point in this match where Nikki Bella did a beautiful looking spinebuster. Match overall was ok. Nikki Bella wins here with the rack attack 2.0 finish. 

Kevin Owens vs Tyler Breeze


The match hasn't started yet but the best part about this is that Owens is becoming more vicious. In other words, he's becoming more NXT Kevin Owens. He then cut a pretty good promo pretty much saying that he blames Bobby Lashley for his actions and injuring his best friend Sami Zayn. The promo ends with Owens proclaiming that RAW is the Kevin Owens show which I disagree because this is essentially the Roman Reigns show but whatever.

Alexa Bliss and Mickie James vs Ronda Rousey and Natalya


Eh match just like this feud but that face from Ronda though when Bliss slapped her in the face. Just by watching the highlights, Ronda wins with the armbar submission to Mickie James. 

WHAT'S BAD

The opening segment


This segment is not only similar to last week's segment but also the promo Braun cut where he said that he's not a coward like roman reigns who needs his shield brothers to take strowman down and does things himself yet he has a faction of his own in Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre? It just doesn't make ANY SENSE whatsoever. This main event storyline right now on RAW is just terrible to watch as a fan. 


Another AOP squash match 


I mean what do you expect In this really? The authors of pain won with the final chapter and by the way, they're now called by their abbreviation. Huh?  

Raw tag titles match between Dolph and Drew vs The B Team 


I don't mind a rematch if the first match was good. The problem is, that match other than the win was meh. So why do I need to watch a match that was meh? 

Dolph and Drew retain their championship by the claymore zig-zag finish to Bo Dallas and later that night Corbin announced that they're defending those belts against Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. To that I ask, why's Seth not defending his Intercontinental title? 

Bobby Roode and Chad Gable vs The Ascension


This match was longer than it needed to be honestly speaking. Roode and gable wins with the modified German suplex which was the same finish as last week's match.

It sounds like I'm complaining for the sake of complaining, however, the show was awful. So awful that I slept the minute after the women's tag team match and woke up almost an hour later to write this review but that didn't stop WWE from announcing that Mick Foley will be the special guest referee for the universal championship match at Hell in a cell. So excited *sigh*. 

What do you think about this week's episode of RAW? Let me know in the comments below and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling.  opinions. Anyways stay safe smarks.

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
