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.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
