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

Smackdown live was a good show that did its job to build some hype for WWE super showdown. Now usually on my reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad. However, I'm only gonna tell you what's good and what's ok for this review because I didn't find anything bad about this episode. Now, here we go.

WHAT'S GOOD

AJ Styles vs Andrade Cien Almas

Man, what a good match. One of my favourites moments from that match was when Andrade hit the stomp to AJ on the ring apron. The match ends with Almas going for the hammerlock DDT and AJ reversed it into a jackknife hold pin and turned it into a styles clash to win this match.

After the match, Samoa Joe outta nowhere attacked AJ and Samoa Joe tried to hit AJ on the steel steps but AJ reversed that and instead hit joe on the steel steps. Joe then put his thumb on AJ's eyes and ran away to the crowd. I don't mind almas losing because he looked good in defeat and I hope we get to see some championship gold from almas.

WHAT'S OK

Miz tv

Maryse feigned the injury, and Miz tries to get the jump on Bryan!

So far, 9 matches have been announced for WWE super showdown in Melbourne, Australia and we have a 10th. The Miz will indeed face Daniel Bryan and that match will determine the number one contender for WWE championship.

Miz then introduces his wife Maryse as his guest on Miz tv because why not? They go on and on about their victory at hell in a cell two days ago and the crowd were booing Maryse like as if Roman was there. Miz then calls out Daniel Bryan and then Daniel showed up and wasted no time to brawl with Miz.

During the brawl, Bryan hit a dropkick to Miz on Maryse's lower abdomen and she sold that like a champ shout out to her. That "pain" was a setup so that the miz could deliver a skull crushing finale to Daniel from behind and Daniel reversed it and threw him on the outside. Not a bad segment. Not bad at all.

Cesaro vs Kofi Kingston

The interaction between both teams promo wise was a bit cringeworthy in some aspects but the match after that was decent. The flip dive that Kofi did was great but unfortunately, that didn't help him win this match because Cesaro wins with a brutal looking neutralizer.

US championship match

Nakamura rakes the eyes to avoid a perilous predicament.

Before this, Aiden English was talking shit about Rusev behind his back until Lana heard it and wanted to tell Rusev but he wants to focus on his match with Nakamura for the United States championship.

Nakamura retains the championship with a roll-up via a distraction from Aiden. After Shinsuke's win, English hit rusev repeatedly with the custom rusev day microphone and sang the word "Happy Rusev day". I don't know how to feel about this but will see how this storyline develops.

Asuka vs Billie Kay

This is the first time Asuka looked somewhat dominant since she was on RAW. She wins with the Asuka lock.

Becky lynch's championship celebration

She says sheâ€™s here to show Becky the respect she didnâ€™t give Charlotte at SummerSlam.

This final segment of the night was okay in my opinion but Becky lynch's sarcasm was on point. WWE had a chance to do something different like a double turn with both women like Becky is the face and Charlotte is the heel but they blew it, however, I'm liking sarcastic Becky but it is going to get stale like Sami Zayn's heel run? We shall see.

What do think about Smackdown Live last night? Let me know in the comments below and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

NXT Takeover: 30 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeovers have delivered greatly throughout the "30 years" of Takeover shows. This one, in my opinion, wasn't it. For a Takeover program, this was disappointing. All of the Takeovers are A's or B's and Takeover 30 was a C at best. At least, I like the stage production set. pictures via WWE.com PRESHOW: Breezango vs Legado De La Fantasma vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch. Winner Faces Imperium For The NXT Tag Team Championship. It was a fine match. Joaquin Wilde's ring gear was really cool even though it took a bit out of the seriousness from the Legado De La Fantasma stable. I'm just nitpicking though. Breezango actually won the match and will go on to face Imperium for the tag belts. MAIN SHOW: Finn Balor vs Timothy Thatcher. Timothy Thatcher started off this match with a series of punches which he then later transitioned into various submission moves. Pretty much, Finn has no choice but to adapt to...

WWE RAW 28/2/22 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another episode of Monday Night RAW aka a 2 hour podcast for an angry bearded white guy. Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins spoke with Alpha Academy and……….. It led to a stunner from Kevin Owens to Chad Gable I can't criticize the way Gable says thank you because after all, he's a chad. The segment followed with a decent tag team match between two former rivals and the Academics. And like their dating life, the Alphas took an L here. This is the part where I would be mad at the tag champs getting pinned but those titles, as well as the entire tag division, are so meaningless, I don't have the energy to do so. T-Bar vs Omos. T-Bar lost a match and Omos can't wrestle for sh*ts. In other news, the colour of blood is red. Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley And Liv Morgan vs Becky Lynch, Doudrop And Nikki A.S.H. Bianca once again proves that she owns all of the EST by leading her team to victory with the KOD on Nikki Ash Ketchum....

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism. "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston. (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm). Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28. I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time. Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane. If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...
