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.

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...
