WWE Smackdown Live 6/11/18 | My Coherent Review.

If you read my last week’s Smackdown Live review (which you can click here) then you'll know that I thought it was okay. Well, I could say the same thing about this week’s show but it was a bit better.  So, I’m only gonna tell you what’s okay and what’s good. Here we go. 

WHAT’S GOOD

Rey Mysterio vs Andrade “Cien” Almas

This is a dream match but did it live up to a dream match? Hell yea, this was a great match. Really liked the slide that Mysterio does into a DDT on the outside. Rey won with the 619 and then outta nowhere, Randy Orton hit the RKO. 

WHAT’S OK

The Opening Segment 

Miz thinks two thirds of the trophy belongs to him since he won two matches in the WWE World Cup.
Pretty much this segment goes like this. Paige opened Smackdown live and introduced Shane McMahon. Shane then tried his cheap pop that usually works but it didn’t which I thought it was funny. After that, they run down the match card for Survivor Series. Shane then called out the team captain and it was Daniel Bryan but Bryan got interrupted by The Miz. 

Miz was “disappointed” that Daniel Bryan is team captain because he’s been in two gruelling matches at Crown Jewel, getting an “injury” etc you know basically making excuses. Shane appointed both Daniel Bryan and The Miz as team captains for Smackdown Live Men’s team which is actually interesting. Is this partnership going to pay off with a W? Will have to watch Survivor Series to find out. 

The Usos vs The New Day. Winner becomes team captains for the Smackdown Live tag team Survivor Series team.

Decent match. Nothing too crazy. By the end of the match, Jimmy Uso countered Kofi’s Hurricanrana from the top rope and instead delivered a powerbomb followed by a Uso splash and won. After the match, The Usos respected The New Day’s effort and chose them to be a part of the Smackdown Live tag team Survivor Series team. 

Becky Lynch vs Nikki Cross 

SAnitY come to the entranceway...
Before the match, Becky cut a promo basically stated that she’s the real champ and Ronda is not and then issued an opened challenge and outcomes Nikki Cross. This is Nikki’s main roster debut and she lost with a disarmher. I don’t know how to feel about this considering that it’s her first match and the fact that you don’t want Becky to lose going into Survivor Series but if Nikki Cross is consistently losing on the main roster then that’s a problem. 

Paige reveals the Smackdown Live women’s team at Survivor Series 

… but she claims she’s really happy for Sonya before reminding everyone that she eliminated Deville in the Battle Royal at WWE Evolution.
Paige picked her Smackdown Live women’s team at Survivor Series and they are. Carmella, Naomi, Sonya Deville, Asuka and Charlotte Flair. After that, Mandy Rose came out and pretty much was disappointed that Sonya got picked and not her. 

Mandy then went on to make fun of the participants excluding Charlotte and Mandy called out Naomi’s Husband Jimmy Uso which led to a brawl between Naomi and Mandy. I will say this, Mandy was pretty decent on the mic and if she kept on cutting promos like that, she might possibly be great on the microphone. 

Samoa Joe vs Jeff Hardy

Okay match. By the end of the match, Jeff was aiming for a Swanton Bomb on Samoa Joe and Joe countered it into a kokina clutch which made Jeff tap out. After the match, Samoa Joe raised his hands out to Daniel Bryan on the outside which led to a brawl between Daniel and Joe and Miz broke that up which made Daniel throw hands on Miz and Shane tried to separate Daniel Bryan but instead did a judo throw to Shane. Whatever.

WWE Clash Of Champions 2019 | My Coherent Review.

This Clash of Champions show was one enormous meh. Also, AJ Styles in the pre-show? That's a first but that match was pretty decent as well as the cruiserweight championship match.  Seth Rollins And Braun Strowman vs Dolph Ziggler And Robert Roode For The RAW Tag team Championship.  During this tag team title match, Ziggler hits a devastating looking DDT to Seth Rollins outside the ring. The odd couple then delivered quick tag team moves but moments later Rollins reversed Ziggler's sleeper hold into a falcon arrow to which Rollins tagged Braun Strowman and took out Ziggler and Roode for a bit.  This match has ended with a Glorious DDT from Robert Roode to Seth Rollins after Braun accidentally knocked out Rollins and Ziggler threw the monster among men over the top rope.  A decent opener with a predictable ending that I don't mind. Maybe a triple threat match between the odd couple, The Viking Raiders and The O.C in Gallows and Anderson for the tag ...

WWE RAW 28/10/19 | My Coherent Review.

Not an enjoyable show like last week's show but it was okay for a typical RAW episode but for a PPV build up, it wasn't good at all.  The Women's Tag Team Champions Opens The Show And….. Paige started off this episode of Monday Night RAW and introduces the Kabuki Warriors which Paige hasn't been on their side for weeks and I'll explain that last comment.  Paige was putting over the warriors and Asuka grabbed her microphone immediately which led to Paige getting her mic back which led to Kairi Sane grabbing Paige's mic. Asuka splits that green mist to Paige to which Becky Lynch came out and brawls with Kairi Sane.  That betrayal from the Kabuki Warriors made a lot of sense considering that Paige didn't benefit them other than being their English spokesperson. Gotta give a big shout out to Paige for selling that green mist without taking a bump. That was great.  Becky Lynch vs Kairi Sane.  That was a very good opener. Kairi Sane reve...

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...
