WWE Survivor Series 2018 | My Coherent Predictions.

This show had three weeks of build instead of the usual four considering that Crown Jewel happened this month (click here to check out my review for that) but will the show be any good? Will have to wait until tomorrow but first, here are my coherent and honest predictions for Survivor Series 2018.   

(Kick-Off Show) Tag team Survivor Series Match

Honestly, I don't care if either RAW or Smackdown Live wins this match but if I had to pick I'll go with.......

WINNER: Smackdown Live Team

(MAIN SHOW) Buddy Murphy (c) vs Mustafa Ali for the Cruiserweight Championship 

Even though I admittedly don't watch 205 Live all that much, I do think based on watching some of their matches that they are a great talent so there's no reason why they can't give us a classic. However, Buddy Murphy just won the championship at Super Showdown a month ago and having Mustafa Ali win the title this Sunday just doesn't feel like that it's the best time for a title change. 

WINNER: Buddy Murphy 

AOP (RAW Tag Team Champion) vs The Bar (Smackdown Tag Team Champion) 

Another match that I necessarily don't care but with the untrustworthy Big Show being on The Bar's corner, The dynamic between him and AOP could be interesting. 

WINNER: AOP

Seth Rollins (Intercontinental Champion) vs Shinsuke Nakamura (United States Champion)  

  
This is the match that I and others are looking forward to the most. Unfortunately, the build was pretty much nonexistent. I get that WWE are progressing the storyline between Seth and Dean but this is a mark key match that we haven't seen before and to just have a minimum build for this is disappointing. With that being said, I'll go with Nakamura because he needs to look legit as champion in my opinion. 

WINNER: Shinsuke Nakamura

Women's 5 on 5 Survivor Series Match

I wish that the 5th spot for the Smackdown Women's team is a wrestler we haven't seen in the WWE in years but it is most likely going to be Mandy Rose. RAW's team is not appealing I mean 1 babyface and 4 heels like really WWE? 

Since Ronda Rousey is going to face Nia Jax for the championship, I think that WWE are booking her to not only dominate in this match but also win the whole thing just to make her look good going into TLC next month but that's just me. 

WINNER: Team RAW 

Ronda Rousey (RAW Women's Champion) vs Charlotte Flair 

This match could main event this PPV given that Ronda and Charlotte are very popular and they're good wrestlers in my opinion. It's unfortunate that Becky is not going to compete in this match but even if she was clear to compete, I would still pick the same winner and that winner is.......

WINNER: Ronda Rousey 

Men's 5 on 5 Survivor Series Match

Since Balor build dissension with Dolph Ziggler and Drew Mcintyre on RAW this week, I could see team Smackdown win this match but this could be a fun match if they play the game (no pun intended) right. 

WINNER: Team Smackdown

Daniel Bryan (WWE Champion) vs Brock Lesnar (Universal Champion) 

Since Bryan is now a heel (which you can click here for my thoughts on the heel turn) I feel like this match has a bit of an unpredictable feel to it with Bryan's heel tactics. However, there is no way that Bryan will ever win this match. I've been wanted those guys to face each other for years and now I'm finally getting it which is rather exciting. 

WINNER: Brock Lesnar

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...
