WWE RAW 29/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

I haven't reviewed RAW in 2 weeks so was this show worth me reviewing it in the sense that it is any good? No, it's boring as usual with RAW. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad.

WHAT'S GOOD

Seth Rollins Calls Out Dean Ambrose

â€œYou know what man? You really are a cold-hearted bastard,â€ Rollins says. â€œYou spat on everything The Shield ever stood for.â€

This is the best Seth Rollin promo I've ever heard. It's even better than his heel promos back in late 2014/ early to late 2015. He spoke with such intensity and passion that it just made it so much better and Dean being silent was just plain awesome. Me saying how good this is doesn't do it justice so click here if you haven't seen it.

Bobby Lashley Is Finally Not Cringe-Inducing

Look, I don't give a crap about the match itself because it's literally a repeat of last week's match but I'm liking this new, serious Bobby Lashley and it's something that he should've gotten when he came back to the company several months ago and top with a funny, charismatic Lio Rush and you got a great duo.

WHAT'S OK

The Opening Segment

Strowman drops Corbin with three Running Powerslams...

The segment is pretty much Baron Corbin cuts a promo about crown jewel taking place in God knows where according to WWE, Brock comes out with Paul Heyman and Paul cuts a promo about Brock winning the title at Crown Jewel, Braun Strowman comes out and he cuts a promo on beating Brock and winning the title, delivered a bodyslam three times to Corbin and then eats an F5 from Brock. In other words, this was a very basic segment that I don't hate but it was forgettable in my opinion.

Sasha Banks, Bayley, Lita and Trish Stratus vs Alicia Fox, Mickie James and The Riott Squad.

I mean what do you expect? It's both matches from Evolution yesterday combined into one (Click here for my Evolution review) but I will say this, Lita did look good in the ring. The team of Sasha Banks, Bayley, Lita and Trish Stratus won that match win Natalya hitting a sharpshooter to Alicia Fox.

Elias vs Jinder Mayhal (Kurt Angle Voice)

By the way, I can't be the only one who forgot that Elias turned babyface. Anyways, the match was rather quick so it's good for not wasting my time. Elias won with the drift away.

Chad Gable and Bobby Roode vs AOP vs The Ascension

The match itself was fine. Bobby Roode and Chad Gable won that match with a double team neckbreaker finish. I honestly am sick and tired of this whole Chad Gable and Bobby Roode thing and I understand that turning Roode heel would've made no sense considering that there are so many heels right now on the main roster but I feel like it's too little, too late for that to happen.

Dolph Ziggler vs Apollo Crews

I'm actually debating on whether I should watch and review Crown Jewel or not considering A, It's a WWE show and B it has two matches that I'm looking forward to. One is AJ Styles vs Daniel Bryan and Two, Kurt Angle vs Dolph Ziggler not to mention an in-ring return after 8 years but anyways this was a decent match. Dolph won here obviously with a superkick.

Lucha House Party vs The Revival

An okay match in my opinion. Nothing special happened really. Lucha House Party won with Kalisto delivered a Salida Del Sol to Scott Dawson.

The Brothers Of Destruction Confronts DX One Last Time Before Crown Jewel

As Kane heads up the ramp to confront Triple H, Shawn Michaels sneaks into the ring and drills Undertaker with Sweet Chin Music.

The show ended with a decent segment and by the way, this match actually would've fitted a lot better if it was at Survivor Series but that's just me.

WHAT'S BAD

Nia Jax vs Ember Moon

I actually would've not put in on what's bad if they added that Nia Jax's number one contendership will be on the line but nope, this ain't Monday night RAW without a series of the same matches over and over again like this one. Nia wins with a leg drop via a distraction from Ember and yes, Nia Jax turn heel I guess like as if I give a shit.

Well, that's all folks I hope you enjoyed my coherent review and if you did then follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions and comment below on what do you think about RAW last night? Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE NXT Takeover: XXV | My Coherent Review.

Look guys, I don't need to tell you this. This was a great show. Now, you're probably be asking "if you don't need to tell me this then why are you to quote yourself, TELLING ME THIS!?" Good question but the reason why is because I like to talk about great pro wrestling. Matt Riddle vs Roderick Strong. An absolute must rewatch match for me and a must watch for you guys if you haven't seen it. Match started off with some amateur wrestling style takedown from both guys. Then, Roderick Strong hit a modified back suplex on the ring apron. By then, Riddle hits Strong with a brainbuster. Riddle had the highlight of that match by hitting Strong with a go to sleep (yes, that go to sleep) into a German suplex with a bridge. Roderick hits a powerbomb pin into a Boston crab then the match ends with Riddle delivered with a move that I wish I knew what the name of it was. Street Profits vs The Forgotten Sons (in Steve Cutler and Wesley Blake) vs The Undi...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking). However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?” In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t. There are fans out there on the interweb that b...

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website. I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows. The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010. The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...
