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.

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...

AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter. Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston.  Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway.  A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking.  What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa.  Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down.  It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac. I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out?  Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of ...

The 5 News Week: Quick Predictions On Wrestlemania: Backlash.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately.  Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.   A Brief Thoughts On AEW Dynamite.  For the first time on this very series, I am going to briefly discuss my thoughts on AEW Dynamite and it was decent for the most part. I do have some perspectives on a few key things.  Most notably, that Cody Rhodes promo which by the way, was without exaggeration, one of the worst PROMOS I've ever witnessed as a 14 year veteran in the wrestling fandom.  The overall dialogue was an example of American imperialism and without a little or too much propaganda (while having the basic understanding of American imperialism), it exposed the very dated nature of the "America vs foreign heel" storyline.  Let's move on to the positives. Miro's booking in recent months has been exc...
