WWE RAW 17/12/18 | My Coherent Review.

While it was overall a mediocre show, it was at least a bit better than the previous RAWs but that's not saying much in my opinion. Why you ask? Well, usually on my reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad. However, I'm only gonna tell you what's ok and what's bad for this review because like I said earlier, this show was mediocre. Without further ado, on with the review. 

WHAT’S BAD

Well. Vince McMahon Returned And……..

The Chairman reminds everyone that Raw has been on the air for 25 years and that they change with the times.
This segment was worth a YouTube video and not on prime time television. They brought Vince McMahon and this is the best they got? 

This led to a Kurt Angle facing Baron Corbin and after the commercial break, Triple H announced that this match is a handicap match which led to Bobby Roode, Chad Gable and Apollo Crews come out. Shane came out and announced that this match has no DQ rules. The babyfaces won the match and then they put Corbin through a table. 

This pissed me off for reasons such as it’s the same thing as the Baron Corbin and Braun Strowman match at TLC. Seriously, F this whole thing. 

And to all those people who are bothered by me and everybody else being critical with this show, understand that it’s all opinions and you don’t need to make excuses as to why people don’t like this show. 

Bobby Lashley Flexes for what it feels like the trillionth time

After Bobby shows off his butt, Elias hit Lashley with the guitar and exited the ring while Elias’s music was playing. My question is, WHEN IS THIS FEUD GONNA END!? 

WHAT’S OK

Finn Balor vs Dolph Ziggler

Decent match. The match ended in a DQ because Drew McIntyre came out and assaulted both Finn and Ziggler. 

The New Intercontinental Champion Dean Ambrose Speaks 

“I took the most important thing in Seth Rollins’ life, and I’m just getting started. When I’m done, Seth Rollins will have nothing left!”
Dean Ambrose with his SWAT team came out and Dean cut a promo on how he predicted his win at TLC and how he’s doesn’t care what people think because he’s the new champ. He then called out Seth Rollins and Seth didn’t show up. 

After that, Dean called for an open challenge to which Tyler Breeze answered the challenge just like when Tyler Breeze answered the open challenge for Ricochet’s North American Championship and speaking of the Intercontinental Championship match.

The match ended faster than the speed of light (not literally of course). After Dean retained the title with the dirty deeds, Seth’s music hit and Seth dressed as one of the SWAT team beat all the SWAT team while Ambrose exited the ring quickly. Whatever. 

Fatal Four Way Match Number One Contender Match For The Tag Team Championship

Another decent match. The Revival won the match and are facing the tag champs with the shatter machine. Not bad and I’m hoping that this is a step in the right direction for the RAW tag team division but unfortunately, I highly doubt that. 

Gauntlet match. Winner Faces The RAW Women's Champion 

WWE Photo
This match went over 53 minutes and honestly, I’m not shocked by that number considering that it was a snooze fest. Natalya won the whole thing and she’s facing the RAW women’s champion, Ronda Rousey. I honestly don’t mind the win considering that Natalya is a solid wrestler and Ronda is improving week by week so it should be a decent match hopefully. 

My question is, what do you think about RAW last night? Let me know in the comments below and click here to read my TLC review. Make sure to follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions and stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 29/3/21 | A Coherent Review.

Once again, this show was mediocre as f**k.  Images via WWE.com   The Hurt Business Is No More. Why? Because WWE hates friendships. All lame jokes aside, the actual reason is that Cedric Alexander and Shelton didn't get the job done on taking out Drew McIntyre.  Alexander and Benjamin weren't too happy with Bobby's words and it led to a brawl.   Wow. It looks like Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander will go right back to not being on TV for a longer period of time. I don't like this at all!  Riddle suggested an idea to Titus O'Neil of a Wrestlemania roast to which the guy was attacked by Sheamus. Speaking of Sheamus and Riddle…… Riddle vs Sheamus.  I ain't a fan of Riddle but he and Sheamus have incredible chemistry because this match was fun. Sheamus pinned the US champion.  After the match, Riddle pushed Sheamus to the outside. I smell a rematch happening at Wrestlemania.  Shane McMahon Calls Braun Strowman Dumb By Bringing up Strowman's Fifth Grade Repo

WWE Smackdown 14/2/20 | My Coherent Review.

Last night was my 2nd anniversary of pumping out written content on this site and I thought since this show has delivered 6 or sometimes 3 out of 10s for 4 months now, I've written some lyrics about my thoughts on Smackdown in the style of the current song opening for the blue brand.  If you wanna put the instrumental version of ACDC's Are You Ready while reading this then that's cool too.  *Cue the intro* Are you Ready?  Are you ready for mediocrity! Then, get ready for disappointment.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.   Even Bischoff.  Are you ready for mediocrity! *ends with some guitar solos*.  The lyrics may suck but it is at least better than whatever the hell Justin Bieber meant when he sang his current single "Yummy".  Now, on with the review. The Return Of A Moment Of Bliss (Unlike The Return Of The Dirt Sheets, Nobody Really Cares).  Both Bliss and Nikki Cross talked about their c

WWE RAW 6/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

This episode of RAW actually made me look forward to Extreme Rules and that's something WWE doesn't do all that well in recent years. It was a great effort by the powers that be.  Dolph Ziggler Picks The Stipulation For The WWE Championship At Extreme Rules: The Horror Show.  McIntyre is waiting for Dolph Ziggler to pick the stipulation for their championship match at Extreme Rules.  Drew got his wish as Dolph Ziggler said that Drew has been stabbing people in the back and that includes the person that Ziggler brought up but not verbally, Heath Slater.  In a very emotional promo, Slater told his former 3MB mate that he was there for Drew McIntyre when Drew was fired from WWE in 2014 but the Scotsmen wasn't there for Slater when he was fired this year.  So, the one-man-band challenged him to a match and the WWE champion accepted. How was the match?  It was a squash bout. Drew wins with the claymore to which Ziggler was picking on Heath and Mc
