WWE Super Show Down | My Coherent Review.


Hello my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to my coherent review for WWE Super Showdown and overall, WWE Super Showdown was an entertaining four hours of pro wrestling and here's why. 

The New Day (c) vs The Bar for the SmackDown Live tag team championship 


I do like the fact that this match opened the show but was it any good? Not really and the way it ended was weird? The match ends with Woods hitting the backstabber followed by a chest double stomp by Kofi to Cesaro and just like that, the new day wins. Decent match but not as great as the other matches they had on SmackDown Live. 

Becky Lynch (c) vs Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Live women's championship 


Big "Let's go Becky Lynch" chants. If that doesn't tell you anything, I don't know what will. Anyways, the match was pretty good. Becky Lynch retains via a DQ by Becky Lynch. I'm going to assume that the rubber match will be a no DQ stipulation match of some sort at evolution. 

John Cena and Bobby Lashley vs Elias and Kevin Owens 


Before the match,  Elias was playing thunderstruck by AC/DC via his guitar which was amazing to see.  The match itself was okay nothing special. 

The match ends with John Cena hitting the five knuckle shuffle followed by the Attitude Adjustment and then delivered his new finisher called “The Lightning Punch”  to win this match. The 6th move of doom. 

After the match, John Cena thanked the crowd for allowing him to perform in the country of Australia. A very generous thing for him to say. 

Asuka and Naomi vs The IIconics


Meh match. The IIconics win with Peyton Royce hitting the kick on side of Naomi's head. 

AJ Styles (c) vs Samoa Joe for the WWE championship 


There was a crowd sign that says "Will U be my daddy?" Which was hilarious. This match was hard hitting. At one point Samoa Joe hit a chop on AJ's chest which almost killed AJ the way he sold it.  The match ends with AJ reversing the kokina clutch and did the calf crusher to Joe and made Joe tap out.  AJ retains the championship and to be honest I don't mind it. 

Ronda Rousey and The Bella Twins vs The Riott Squad 


Surprisingly, this was a decent six women tag match. The team of Ronda Rousey and The Bella Twins wins this match with Ronda Hitting a double armbar on both Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan. 

Cedric Alexander (c) vs Buddy Murphy for the cruiserweight championship

A cruiserweight championship match after the WWE championship match? That's weird but nevertheless, this was a great match. That Michinoku driver to Murphy from the top rope was a thing of beauty but that, unfortunately, wasn't enough because Buddy Murphy wins this match and is your new cruiserweight champion. What a performance by those two. 

The Shield vs Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre

Good match in my humble opinion. At one point, Roman tried to aim the superman punch to McIntyre but instead, McIntyre dodged it and instead accidentally hit on Ambrose. The shield wins this match with Dean hitting the dirty deeds to Ziggler. The win should've gone to Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler but again, this was a good match. 

Daniel Bryan vs The Miz

Well, that was a quick match. Daniel Bryan wins with the small package. I'm hoping this leads to a fatal four way for the WWE championship at some point. 

The Undertaker vs Triple H 


The match was kinda slow for a no DQ match (No shit Omar they're old obviously) but it was a pretty decent match. The match ends with Shawn Michaels hitting the sweet chin music to Undertaker and then Triple H delivered the pedigree to the Undertaker and wins this match. 

After the match, Triple H and Shawn Michaels gave their respect to the Undertaker and then outta nowhere the brothers of destruction beat both Triple H and Shawn Michaels and that's how the show ends. 

Well, I hope you enjoyed this review and let me know what do you think about Super showdown? Follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions and stay safe smarks.

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

The 5 News Week Look Back At Each Individual Highlight Of Zack Ryder, Lio Rush as Cruiserweight Championship, The Writer Behind The Otis And Mandy Rose Story.

April 15th, 2020 is a memorable day for me. It is definitely the saddest and noteworthy day of not only mine and the fans' lives but as well as the performers and staff who were affected by this. I am of course referring to the day that WWE released dozens of talented, hard-working people.  For those who are new, I usually report on the 5 major or minor news of the week and that was the original plan.  However, since this week is probably going to be known in the future for the releases, I want to instead document 5 of the performers and staff's individual highlights in their tenure with WWE.  Understand that without the hardworking wrestlers, producers, ring crew, writers and the rest of the staff doing what they do best, there wouldn't be a Playard Wrestling Post. Without further ado, Ladies and gentlemen, this is The 5 News Week Look Back.  How Zack Ryder's Popularity In 2011 Played A Role In WWE's YouTube Strategy Today.  It's hard to believe ...

Priscilla Kelly Used A Tampon In A Wrestling Match: Right Or Wrong?

    If you have been away from social media for the past day or so, a wrestler by the name of Priscilla Kelly (who by the way, recently competed in the second Mae Young Classic tournament) competed in a match in which she pulled out her tampon and put it on her rival's mouth. That struck the wrestling world on Twitter with differences of opinions. She did respond to this on Twitter and here's what she had to say: Hey guys. Ya know, it's all fake. 21+ show with a bar. Can't take life so serious all the time. Call me what you will... 🌹 — The Priscilla Kelly (@priscillakelly_) January 5, 2019 What do I think of this? I don't understand why this became as viral as it is considering that we've seen hardcore, brutal, disgusting stuff in a wrestling match before. However, it did get an "ugh" reaction out of me.  Was it right or wrong that she did this? My answer is none considering that wrestling is subjective and there's no such thing ...
