WWE Mae Young Classic S02 E04 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow and welcome to my coherent review for the Mae Young Classic tournament and another week, another week of a great hour of professional wrestling and here's why. 


Rachel Evers vs Kiroyo Matsumoto

Right off the bat, Evers got a standing ovation considering that she had a very good first impression in last year's mae young classic. The match was good. One of my favourites moments of that match was Kiroyo delivered a brutal missile dropkick to Evers. Kiroyo Matsumoto won that match with a jackknife powerbomb followed by a back suplex that she calls it "the rock drop". 


Taynara Conti vs Jessie Elabain

I would describe her character as an energetic but also homesick if that makes sense? There was a point in the match where Jessie delivered a forearm to Conti and then immediately Conti shouted "Are you CRAZY?" which was hilarious but that didn't stop her from winning this match. Taynara Conti won with a spinning belly to belly slam. 


Nicole Matthews vs Isla Dawn

Isla Dawn reminds me of that vampire from season 4, episode one of Buffy the vampire slayer but the match was fine. The match ends with Matthews delivering a clothesline followed by a liontamer that Chris Jericho used. 


Io Shirai vs Xia Brookside

The final first round match of the mae young classic with two impressive competitors in Brookside and Shirai but was it good though? No, because if anything, that was a showcase match for those who are not familiar with Io Shirai. She won with a beautiful moonsault. 


Overall, the first round tournament was fantastic and a great way to show what the women's evolution is all about. Thanks for reading this and let me know what do think about the first round of the mae young classic in the comments below. Follow the blog for honest pro wrestling and stay safe smarks.

WWE Smackdown 24/4/20 | A Coherent Review.

This week's Smackdown show was decent but it wasn't as strong as the previous weeks and *hits his head a few times* here's why.  The New Day Celebrates Their Title Victory. The show kicked off with the now 8th time WWE tag team champions, The New Day and like the title above, they were celebrating their big title win last week (No sh*t, Omar).  During the segment, Kofi mentioned that there's nothing wrong with pointing out that they have more title reigns than The Hart Foundation, Edge and Christian, Demolition, The New Age Outlaws etc because it's them being proud of their accomplishments.  Out came Lucha House Party, The Miz and John Morrison and they pretty much said that they deserve a title shot. The Forgotten Sons showed up to tell The New Day, Lucha House Party and every other tag team watching that they will never be forgotten.  They lived up to that statement as the Forgotten Sons destroyed Lucha House Party and The New Day.  ...

WWE RAW 28/12/20 | A Bit Late Coherent Review.

Before I start this review, I wanna say rest in peace to Jon Huber better known as the person behind the character of Luke Harper and Brodie Lee.  It was a tough, painful 3 days for the pro wrestling industry and I certainly felt that.  If there's one thing I've learned from the number of great stories being told by the people he has worked with is that Jon is a charming, funny and overall a fantastic human being that loves his family.  After reading the countless amount of fantastic tribute posts (including from the likes of Molly Belle of Wrestle Inn and Andrew Thompson of Post Wrestling ), that bit about Jon as a family man made me think of my current relationship with my father and the ways I'm trying to improve from my standpoint.  I know this is a cheese pizza saying but tell the people you cared about that you love 'em because that line might make their day.  So. Thank you, Jon Huber, for being the light that brightens everybody's darkness.  Now, Ho...

WWE Wrestlemania: Backlash 2021 | A Coherent Review.

Wrestlemania: Backlash or as I like to call it, Backlashimania, gets an enthusiastic thumbs up for me. I enjoyed the hell out of this PPV overall.  Images via WWE.com The opening intro was narrated by the greatest of all time, Batista and it was straight badass despite the fact it was pretty much a promotion for Zack Snyder's new film, Army Of The Dead.  If you've read my about page, then you'll know that I ain't talking about Zack Snyder movies because his fans are…… never mind.  Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka For The RAW Women's Championship.  Charlotte with the Cruella De Vil inspired ring gear was to quote Dolph Ziggler's old theme song, "perfection". The opening bout was fast-paced, high octane action that didn't have a slow/dull moment.  All of these women utilized quick grapples and strikes to their advantage.  Charlotte was this close to capturing the title but she was pushed to the outside, nailed the riptide to Asuka and that...
