WWE Smackdown Live 4/9/18 | My Coherent Review.


Smackdown live was far better leagues of RAW in terms of PPV build ups. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good and what's ok and the reason why there's no what's bad is because I didn't find anything particularly bad about it. Without further ado, here's my honest coherent review of this episode of Smackdown live. 


WHAT'S GOOD


The sit-down interview between Becky Lynch and Charlotte

The interview starts with Becky getting a babyface reaction after Tom mentions Charlotte. Then Charlotte said that Becky said that (I dare you to say that sentence 20 times) in order to be the best, you have to beat the best and from there they were arguing but that argument sounded genuine and that's why I liked this so much. 

The only thing I don't like about this feud so far is the according to the crowd reaction, Becky is the babyface and Charlotte is a heel understandably so.

When Samoa Joe shouts "Wendy", It never gets old. The promo he cut goes like this, he basically stated that joe beating AJ actually made him care about his family. Until AJ comes out to the ring and wasted no time to both beat the crap out of each other. This feud, in my opinion, needs a hell in a cell match stipulation. 


WHAT'S OK 

The opening segment

The show starts with Renee welcoming everyone to smackdown live which by the way, sounded much better than how Stephanie used to start her promo by welcoming everybody to RAW. 

She's there so that she can have an in-ring interview with none other than Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella and they came out with yes chants and Renee showed footage of the miz and Maryse calling out Bryan and brie earlier that night with no one in the arena. 

Daniel Bryan basically calls the miz a coward for doing that. Outcomes Andrade cien almas and Zelina Vega and then I went to the bathroom so I didn't really catch up on what they said but that lead to the first match of the night and speaking of which.....

Daniel Bryan vs Andrade cien almas

 Solid match. That dropkick by Andrade looked brutal but also fantastic at the same time. Daniel wins with the running knee. Then the miz and Maryse appears via "satellite" on an Italian restaurant and basically said that they will embarrass them at hell in a cell. For some odd reason, I'm really curious as to what they ate at that Italian restaurant. 

Peyton Royce vs Naomi

Quick match to be honest. Naomi wins with the roll up until she got beat up by the iconics until Asuka's music hit. Asuka then Storms into the ring and cleared out the ring by beating both Billie Kay and Peyton Royce. Meh. 


Tag team triple threat match

The match was decent. Better than the other tag team triple threat match last week. Rusev day wins the match with the machka kick. The bar's music hit and gave Rusev and English we are the bar sign. Should be a good match nevertheless. 


R truth vs the Miz

Man those backstage segments with truth have been comedic gold. I wanna see more of this and I hope that he and tye Dillinger are in the title contention at some point. Anyways, the match itself was ok though. 

By the end of the match, Daniel Bryan's music hits and that distracted miz which provided R truth a big win via a roll up. Then Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella were beating up both miz and Maryse until Zelina vega pulled brie to the outside while Andrade threw bryan into the steel steps until both Bryan and brie outta nowhere pulled both vega and almas, put them into the yes lock and that's how smackdown live ended. It's far better than how RAW ended last night I'll tell you that much.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Chris Jericho Offers Moxley To Join Inner Circle, The Go-Home Show Before Dec 18th.

I thought the middle act of AEW Dynamite suffered some pacing issues even though it was overall a much stronger show than last week's episode.  The latest episode of NXT, however, has built a solid foundation on what's to come on December 18th. The main question is, which show do I like better? The answer is AEW.  NXT  Highlights. Angel Garza vs Lio Rush For The NXT Cruiserweight Championship.  Was this match better than their first encounter? Like Snoop Dogg's verse in Sasha Banks' theme song, "Hell yea". Garza slams Rush hard on the ring apron by pushing the champ. Moments later, Garza delivers the Spanish Fly and Rush kicked out of that.  As Rush hits the frog splash, the champ wanted to pull him back in the middle of the ring but instead, he ripped off Garza's pants (nice attention to detail).  Angel then hits the wind clipper but Lio kicked out which led to a wind clipper submission and the man of the hour tapped out which m...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

A Brief Guide To Pro Wrestling Websites.

So. You just become a fan of pro wrestling and have dabbled into the fandom for a bit (it's a mess ain't it?) You've just followed some news sites' social media platforms but aren't sure whether the articles they put out are accurate or not.  Well, you got the right guy to solve that problem if it's from a blog that barely gets any traction (that would be me in case you were confused).  The news we get from the medium that is pro wrestling is an integral part of the online space.  The reason being is that it's not only a great conversation starter but you could also learn something new today about the industry you love.  That doesn't mean that all of the news you see on the timeline is reliable.  I'm here to hopefully give you a guide to wrestling sites.  There are many wrestling websites out there but I wanna highlight some of the notable ones.  Okay? Here we go.  #1: Wrestling Observer Newsletter aka F4WOnline.  I can't talk about a guide t...
