WWE RAW 1/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

Yesterday was October 1st and guess what? RAW aired that day and it was HELLA BORING. 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 ok and what's bad for this review because like I said earlier, this show was boring. 

WHAT'S OK

Dean Ambrose vs Braun Strowman

This match was pretty much Braun Strowman manhandling Dean Ambrose with a couple of offence by Ambrose of course. By the end of the match, Braun hit two bodyslams to Ambrose until Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins comes out and threw him outta the ring. In other words, Braun wins via DQ. 

Baron Corbin immediately comes out and he made a match between Seth Rollins vs Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns vs Dolph Ziggler. 


Roman Reigns vs Dolph Ziggler.

Decent match. At one point, Dolph Ziggler put his fingers on Roman's eyes and delivered a zig-zag to a near fall. Roman Reigns wins with the all-powerful, the all dominant, the all mighty spear. 

Ronda Rousey vs Ruby Riott

Looks like Liv Morgan is fine which I'm happy to see. Anyways, the match was okay. Ronda wins with the armbar submission. 

Bobby Roode vs Connor of the Ascension

Meh match. By the end of the match, Bobby was preparing for the glorious DDT until Victor pushed Chad gable which distracted Roode and then Connor Delivered the dominator finish to Bobby Roode and wins. 

This is the first time The Ascension looked dominant since their main roster debut 3 years ago. 


The B team vs The Revival

The B team wins this match in what was a forgettable tag team match until out of nowhere the authors of pain were beating the crap outta both Axel and Dallas. Not bad. Not bad at all. 


Seth Rollins vs Drew McIntyre

Not as good as their first in counter but nevertheless a decent match. Claymore kick got Drew the win via a distraction from Seth. After the match, Seth got beat up by Dolph and Drew until Roman Reigns comes out to save him. 

Then Braun comes out to beat both Reigns and Rollins until Dean Ambrose comes out to save them and he got his ass kicked by Braun Strowman. 


Bobby Lashley vs Kevin Owens

Before the match, both Owens and Elias got booed like as if Roman was there until Lio Rush shows up and pretty much introduces Bobby Lashley. The match itself was fine. Kevin Owens wins via a distraction from Bobby Lashley. By the end of the match, Lashley tried to beat Elias, however, Kevin Owens hit Lashley from behind and it was a 2 on 1 beat down.  

Bayley vs Alicia Fox

Bayley wins with the Bayley to belly finish. That's it. You haven't missed much. 


Shawn Michaels on RAW

You know you guys feel old when Shawn Michaels is now bold which doesn't really fits him but whatever. The segment was a decent way to end in what was a boring Monday night RAW. 

WHAT'S BAD

The Opening Segment

The show starts with Charly Caruso asking Dean Ambrose did you believe in what Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre said last week and have you thought about leaving the shield to which Dean Ambrose basically answered with a yes in the sense that he won the WWE championship all by himself. 

He also said that he's waiting for the right moment to turn his back on his "brothers" if that's what people are thinking about it. Caruso then played a footage of last week where Dean thought of turning his back on Reigns and Rollins but he didn't. 

Caruso asked him "What was going through your mind there?" Dean answered with pretty saying that he's should've gone to Smackdown but he stayed on RAW to be with his "brothers". 

He then told Caruso that she should judge him based on his actions last week. His promo ends with him saying that the shield is a brotherhood and that's it. 

Baron Corbin came out to the ring and gave Dean three options. One, face Seth Rollins for the intercontinental championship. Two, face Roman Reigns for the universal championship and three, face Braun Strowman in singles action. 

I enjoyed that segment and would've put it in what's good up in till Baron Corbin forced him the third option which doesn't make any sense as usual with RAW. He could've just gave him two options and if he disobeys him then he goes one on one with Strowman but that's just me.

A moment of Bliss

Why? Because not only the segment itself was boring but the math in this made no sense and shout out to Italo Santana on twitter for pointing that out. 

Sound off in the comments below on what do you think about RAW last night and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
