People Over at FOX Are Not Too Happy With WWE's Entertainment Aspect.

Now if you have been living under a huge rock, you know that WWE has indeed signed a 5 year 1 billion dollar deal from FOX and a wrestling show is not the only thing that FOX wants. From Dave Meltzer's recent observer newsletter, FOX wants WWE to give more of a serious/sports like feel into their programming considering that FOX are planning to have a "sports block" throughout the weekend from Thursday until Sunday. 

 FOX are also planning to air the NFL on that "sports block" on Thursday, to air Smackdown Live on Friday and wants to promote Smackdown Live during their sport shows but in order for that to happen they [WWE] need to change their way of storytelling. 

 What do I think of this? FOX like any networks has their perspective on which number considers a lower rating and which number considers a higher rating if that makes sense and I say this because several months ago, FOX cancelled a show called Lucifer which gets anywhere between 3 to 4 million viewers per episode and WWE hasn't got that number in God knows how long. In that aspect, I agree with FOX on this. 

 I got this story from wrestling news source and they asked a question if this might be the end of The New Day and to that, I say no because I remember earlier this year they cut a great promo when they were feuding with The Usos and the best thing about this was that they were serious just like what FOX wants (Click here to watch that video). 

 What do guys think? Sound off in the comments below and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 16/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another L for the red brand in terms of overall quality. And they do not need that L considering that it's the final show before this year's SummerSlam event.  Images via WWE.com   Randal Keith Orton And Riddal Are Back Together?  Randy explained his actions last week, stating that he simply doesn't owe anyone an explanation because he's Randy Orton (okay?).  Out came the most obnoxious person in Riddle and he wanted RKBRO to reunite. Styles showed up to hype up his big goof in Omos.  That RKO last week was as confusing as the thought of Jupiter Ascending being a "good movie".    The question is, did the band realigned themselves once again?  The answer was a soft no if you stopped watching the show after the Riddle and AJ Styles match (I don't blame ANYONE that stops watching Monday Night RAW).  However, that became a solid yes after Randy's bout with Omos. Am I the only one that feels kinda mid about this?  It's not terri...

WWE RAW 23/11/20 | A Coherent Review.

Monday Night RAW this week felt like 7 hours instead of 3 hours because this show was a snooze fest.  There were a few good moments but for the most part, I was bored as f**k watching this episode.  Images via WWE.com This Segment Bruh…  To put it simply, the segment was straight up dogsh*t.  Pretty much all of the competitors in the RAW Survivor Series men's team stated their reason as to why they deserve a WWE title opportunity (with jokes from Riddle cornier than any Nick Cannon's comedy sketch).  Then, Braun Strowman attacked Adam Pearce because Braun was bothered by Adam Pearce saying, "last but not least" to him. Whyee?  That attack from Strowman made him look so stupid.  You (Braun) would've had a slight chance to face Drew for the WWE championship so why attack the guy?  The New Day vs Shelton Benjamin And Cedric Alexander For The RAW Tag Team Championship.  Moving on from something that is actually slightly worst?  I would be co...

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Cody Rhodes vs Wardlow In A Steel Cage, Bianca Belair Calling Out Charlotte Flair.

For the second week in a row, All Elite Wrestling has knocked it out of the park in their premier pro wrestling show while NXT is cooling off the steam creatively that is Takeover: Portland. Hopefully, the yellow brand picks back up next week.  NXT       Highlights.  Broserweights vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch.  That dialogue when Riddle said that they partied so hard in Portland that Pete Dunne failed the wellness policy was hilarious. The champions are immediately getting back to work after that great performance this past Sunday.  Also, this is the return of Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan so it's great to see those guys. The champions are still strong thanks to that knee strike from Riddle to win this match. A good match indeed.  Chelsea Green vs Kayden Carter.  The reason why I put this in my highlights is not because of the match but rather Bianca Belair showing up and challenging Charlotte Flair saying that...
