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 RAW 11/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show makes me wanna go home if I was an attendance of this show. In other words, RAW wasn't good and here's why.  Opening Segment.  The show started off with The Authority. A stable that I actually don't mind but that a different topic. Anyways, they run down the Elimination Chamber PPV card. After that, The Man Becky Lynch came out and Triple H said that he will lift the suspension if Becky apologizes to both him and Stephanie.    Becky then told Stephanie to shut her face and she refused to apologize. The segment ended with Hunter giving her two choices. Either Becky apologizes to them or Becky's WrestleMania match is off.  Compared to the segments on RAW and Smackdown last week, this was underwhelming.  Sasha and Bayley vs Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan vs Nia Jax and Tamina. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.  The match was fine. During the match, Bayley delivered two stunners on the ...

WWE RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending.  I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List".  Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down.  Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%.  Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW.  Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...

Wrestling With Whiteness | A Documentary Sorely Needed.

Here's the thing. My 2 viewers will know that I've been a wrestling fan for 15 plus years but what they do not know is that I've been a Somali (aka a Black Muslim person) my entire life so talking about this documentary is going to be a little more personal, to say the least.  And look, I know this is the part where I insert my usual wit and fart jokes but you're not gonna see less of that because this is a serious topic (and you know it's serious when I mentioned my ethnicity) about representation and the shared struggle across every single black performer featured in this documentary.  From the press release, Wrestling With Whiteness "focuses on sharing the stories of Black folx and their experience in the wrestling community. Using a combination of interviews with Black wrestlers and Black content creators, Wrestling With Whiteness uncovers the unique experiences of Black people in the industry and the rise of representation for performers and fans around th...
