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.

Should Dave Meltzer Get Rid Of His Rating System?

So a few weeks ago, good old Dave Meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter gave the Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny omega match at dominion 2018 a 7-star rating. According to the interent wrestling database , this match is by far his HIGHEST match rating ever (i don't blame him because the match was amazing). So statistically, this is his favourite match of all time . Now, why I'm writing this now?  Well, his best match ratings have been a consistent 5 stars since 1983 with the exception of all the Omega vs Okada matches and the Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match at AJPW's Budokan hall show in June of 1994.  There are fans that take his match ratings as an offence somehow like "Why he rates X match better than Y match?" or thinks that he "hates" WWE which is ridiculous considering that he gave three WWE matches a 5 star ratings just this past year. One was the ladder match to crown the first ever NXT North American champion, the Johnny Garga...

WWE Smackdown Live 10/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was a bad show that did nothing as a wrestling fan to gain any excitement for extreme rules. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good. No scratch that, i'm gonna give you what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. WHAT'S OK The opening segment and the brawl after that The opening segment was meh. And the brawl after that was fine. Didn't make me go "OHHHHHHHHHHH" or anything like along those lines. That brawl leads to a TEN MAN TAG TEAM match (Ummmmmm no shit omar). I will say this, the segment kinda teased the fact that maybe kane will turn on his best friend? I don't know. Should be interesting.  Andrade "cien" almas vs Sin cara The match was surprisingly decent. At one point andrade delivered a devastating stomp to sin cara on the ring apron. Andrade wins with a running knee to sin cara on the middle rope. Hoping andrade can move on to bigger and better things.  WHAT'S BAD ...

WWE Smackdown Live 19/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This show was overall, a skippable show just like RAW yesterday and here's why.  Opening segment.  The show kicked off with Shane McMahon with his usual cheap pop. After that, Shane McMahon announced that Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Tommaso Ciampa will be on SmackDown Live just like RAW last night (click here to read my RAW review).  Out came The Miz and he said that he hasn't stop thinking about their match at Elimination Chamber. Miz also said he admitted that he used Shane because Miz wanted to make Shane McMahon understand where's Miz's coming from.  Miz then wanted a rematch between him, Shane McMahon and the Usos for the SmackDown Live tag team championship to which the Usos came out and insulted The Miz.  That led to Shane McMahon saying that the rematch is on but at Fastlane in two weeks. So we got the first official match scheduled for Fastlane and considering that Shane is a McMahon and has all the Authority, I do...
