WWE Crown Jewel | My Coherent Review.

This show reminds me of a typical Monday night RAW episode in the sense that It was skippable and if I didn't watch the show itself, I wouldn't miss anything. In other words, it sucked and here's why. 

Rey Mysterio vs Randy Orton 

Man, Randy Orton arguably has the best dropkick in WWE. The match was decent. Rey won with a sunset flip into a roll up, then Randy outta nowhere delivered an RKO to Rey
Mysterio and assaults Mysterio on the outside. I mean I don’t mind this considering that Randy has to look good with his heel run so far. 

The Miz vs Jeff Hardy 

The match was rather quick in my opinion. The A-Lister won the match with the Skull crushing finale. 

Seth Rollins vs Bobby Lashley

Man, this first round tournament other than the first match was not only quick in match length but also rather dull in my opinion. Rollins won the match with the stomp (terrible name). 

Kurt Angle vs Dolph Ziggler

The match that I’m looking forward to but was it good? No, but it was decent. The best match in the tournament so far and Kurt did look good in this match. Ziggler won with the Zig Zag. 

The New Day vs The Bar for the Smackdown Live Tag Team Championship 

Decent match. The match ended with the Big Show gave the KO punch to Big E without the referee seeing it and immediately Sheamus delivered the brogue kick to Big E to retain the titles. 

The Miz vs Rey Mysterio Semi finals match 

This match was straight borefest. My goodness, what a boring match. The Miz won with him reversing the 619 from Rey Mysterio into a small package. 

Seth Rollins vs Dolph Ziggler Semifinals match 

By far the best thing on that show, a very good match. Dolph Ziggler won with a superkick via distraction from Seth Rollins 

AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe for the WWE championship 

Look, I don’t want to be hit with a Samoa Joe suicide dive. Man, that was brutal. The match was okay with a quick ending. Styles hit a phenomenal forearm to Joe and just like that, he retains the championship. 

Braun Strowman vs Brock Lesnar for the Universal championship 

What did I just witness? That was awful like I get it because Braun hit Corbin with three powerslams and Baron Corbin holds a grudge because of that hence, Corbin hitting Braun with the championship belt. I’m going to assume that this screw up will lead to WWE having a 5 on 5 survivor series match between team Kurt vs team baron and who wins will be general manager of RAW but I could be wrong. Brock is your new Universal champion. This was laughably bad. 

The Miz vs Dolph Ziggler Finals match 

Well, it was supposed to be The Miz vs Dolph Ziggler but Miz couldn’t complete due to an “injury” and Shane instead took Miz’s place. What. In. The. Actual. Fuck. 

 I mean why couldn’t Rey Mysterio win that match with The Miz in the semi-finals? Shane actually won with the coast to coast. In other words, none of the competitors from that tournament actually won the whole thing. Did Vince Russo wrote this like *laughing profusely”

The Brothers Of Destruction vs DX 

I will say this, Shawn looked good in this match. Triple H, unfortunately, hurt his right shoulder after taking the bump over the turnbuckle on the outside. Wish him a speedy recovery, however, match itself was boring. DX won with Triple H delivered a pedigree to Kane. 

 Look, I know the answer to this question but what do think about Crown Jewel? Sounds off in the comments below and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

Let's Talk About The White Rabbit In The Room.

I haven't reviewed last year's show mainly because it was so good and clearly as extreme as any ECW match and I'm happy to tell all 3 of y'all that this one is better by several inches or so. Why? *slaps my bald head* HERE'S WHY. The opening match between Sheamus and Gunther's crew ruled harder than the Mongolian empire.  It was basically an enhanced version of Sheamus' match with Gunther last night on Smackdown and I loved it.  The Brawling Brutes' victory means one thing that is clearly obvious, a rematch between Sheamus and Gunther for the intercontinental championship aka the only series of rematches I don't mind.  Ronda Rousey and Liv Morgan delivered in what was a wrestling match equivalent to the X-Men Dark Phoenix movie.  While Bianca Belair and Bayley had their equivalent to the first Iron Man movie in that it was decent.  Drew McIntyre and Karrion Kross had an okay edition of the "Meaty men slapping meat".  That spear from Edge to...

A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

  Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess?  Smackdown.  The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k.  The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself.   As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title.   Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship.  Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on V...
