WWE Smackdown Live 11/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall a good show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. 


WHAT'S GOOD


Jeff Hardy vs Shinsuke Nakamura

The promo before this was okay however that was a goooood match. Better than their in counter at SummerSlam. Jeff was about to beat Nakamura, however, randy outta nowhere pushes hardy on the outside hence Nakamura retains the championship and Jeff wins via DQ. They had a brawl that was better than the brawl last night on RAW I'll tell you that much. 

Samoa Joe telling a bedtime story in a good not boring way.

 I thought from the editing to the design of the book to the way Samoa Joe express the story was fantastic. The thing I LOVE about this is that it's a outside in the box type of promo package that worked. Man, I can't wait for this match. On Sunday night when the PPV airs, I think I'm gonna call my local "WENDYYYS" (My goodness that was awful like what were you thinking Omar?). 

WHAT'S OK

Charlotte vs Sonya Deville

Decent match. Not sure why she requested that match of all thing but again a decent match. Charlotte wins with the figure eight submission. After the match, Becky Lynch dressed as a fan beat the crap out of Charlotte and that made her a babyface (No shit, Omar). 

The Bar vs Rusev day

Another decent match. By the end of the match, Sheamus was aiming the brogue kick to rusev but instead English pushed Rusev to take the kick and that's what he did. Rusev then delivers a machka kick to Sheamus, pins him and wins the match. They're now the number one contender for the tag team championship. This match crowd reaction wise will have a WrestleMania feel in my opinion. 


Brie Bella vs Maryse

Pourquoi is the question I ask when RAW airs on Monday nights. Anyways, this was more of a showcase and a build up for this feud because that was a mediocre match at best even though I understood why it was like that. After the match, the IT couple in the miz and maryse beat the crap out of them and them bryan distracted the miz so that brie bella can punch miz in the face and that's how smackdown live ended.

WHAT'S BAD

 Andrade "Cien" Almas vs R Truth

I mean this was a way to gain a bit of momentum but a werid one for almas considering that he lost clean to bryan even though I don't mind that win.  Almas wins with a roll up which was again a weird finish like why can't he beat him with the hammerlock DDT but I'm just nitpicking. 

Sounds off in the comments below on what do you think about SmackDown live this week and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

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...
