WWE Smackdown Live 24/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was once again, 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 let's talk wrestling, shall we? 

WHAT'S GOOD

The opening segment 

“This show is already way better than ‘Miz TV,’” Bryan says.
Man, this opening segment was entertaining and I believe this is the first time since 2011 that R Truth has been featured a lot on WWE television. Look, I know some people who find the five-second dance break cringeworthy but I thought that was funny. That segment led to a match between The Miz and R Truth and if want to know my thoughts on the match itself then look below. 

Rusev calls out Aiden English

Basically, this segment goes like this. Rusev calls out Aiden to explain himself for his actions last week. Aiden then comes out to the ring and he played a promo package pretty much implying that if it wasn't for Aiden English, Rusev wouldn't be as over as he is now or at least that's what I thought of that until he blames Rusev's wife Lana for his actions. 

Lana then replied by saying that she was by his side when her husband was undefeated for a year and she calls out Aiden for trying to create a name for himself using Rusev. 

After that, Aiden asks that if she's so honest with her husband, is she going to tell him that one night in Milwaukee? Ooh, it's heating up. I overall enjoyed this segment but was it the Milwaukee incident all bullshit or not? Will have to watch Smackdown live next week to find out.  

Samoa Joe is at AJ's house. Literally. 

Joe promises to beat AJ for the WWE Championship in Australia holds up a toy that he got for Annie.
Holy crap, what a way to end this show and the way it ended by Joe saying "Daddy's home" just made it so much better. Click here to watch the whole thing on YouTube if you haven't seen it yet. I promise it's worth the 5 minutes.

WHAT'S OK

R Truth vs The Miz

The match itself was predictable but decent at the same time. The Miz wins here with him hitting the skull crushing finale and then the running knee finish that Bryan usually uses.  

Sheamus vs Big E

Before the match, The New Day were "saying something nice" to The Bar and Sheamus had enough and that's when The Bar were preaching the truth. At one point, Big E tried to kill himself with the spear on the outside but luckily Sheamus reversed it and then immediately hit the brogue kick and win the match.   

Naomi and Asuka vs Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville

According to Micheal Cole, Sonya Deville is the hottest thing on Smackdown live (*cough* click here to read all my Mae young classic reviews so far). If that's the case, she would've won this match but she and Mandy didn't because the team of Naomi and Asuka wins this match win the double by Naomi and Asuka. 

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Tye Dillinger

Tye bro, where you at?  Anyways, Tye wins via DQ because outta nowhere Randy Orton was beating up Tye which I'm confused. I mean yes Tye Dillinger is over with the crowd but I just don't get it. look, I'm not hating this. I just have more questions than answers. 

Becky Lynch vs Lana

There were Milwaukee chants from the crowd in Denver which was really funny. Anyways, Becky wins with the Disarmher.

WWE Eyeing On New Creative Writers.

Last week on RAW, The McMahon family announced that there will be new faces and fresh match ups. What better way to invoke change than to seek out new writers with different ideas right?  WWE are actively seeking for new writer's assistant positions with at least two years in writing television and or/ production experience and preferably but not necessary, a degree in Film/TV/Drama, Media Studies, Journalism, Communications, English, or related field of study.  For everyone who thinks they can do it better, here's your opportunity. Merry Christmas! https://t.co/FJch1rOXCM — Jimmy Korderas (@jimmykorderas) December 24, 2018 What do I think of this? As long as Vince is in charge, unfortunately, nothing is going to change for the better of the product but that's just me.  Let me know in the comments on how you would change the WWE product and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks. 

WWE RAW 13/9/21 | A Coherent Review.

Ya boy took a week off of talking about wrestling which is something I usually need after watching a single episode of Monday Night RAW but consistency is key, people!  In recent weeks, however, Monday Night RAW doesn't feel like mental torture and the latest episode is no exception.  Images via WWE.com Big E Was Like, "I'm Definitely Cashing In My Contract".  The lovable wholesome gyrating big man name Big E interacted with Randy Orton as well as Bobby Lashley ahead of the WWE title match between Bob and Randal.  The reason is obvious. Big E wants to cash in seeing Becky Lynch's mother again (that's not it?).  All lame jokes aside, the big man did cash in the contract to become the NEW WWE champion later in the episode after a successful title defence from Bobby Lashley against Randy Orton.  Words cannot describe how f**king happy I am seeing one of my favourite performers finally capture the gold which was long overdue if you ask me.  I will go as far as to

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
