WWE Smackdown Live 15/1/19 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown Live was besides one match, was a skippable show and here's why. 

Opening Segment. 

The Empress of Tomorrow claims that Becky will be in Asuka’s shadow after Royal Rumble.
Basically SmackDown Live started off with Becky was backstage and drank whatever the hell Otis made in the blender. She then was in the ring and Becky said being the man is not easy. Becky also said that she delivered everything she said and how Asuka hasn't beaten Charlotte before. 

Out came Asuka and she said that Becky only talks and Becky is like a bee that hasn't stung. Asuka ended the promo by saying that come Royal Rumble Becky is in her ring. Out came the Australian duo and they said that a champion shouldn't be intimidating but instead should be treated with class. 

They also said that they're gonna win the GORGEOUS looking women's tag teams titles and win the women's Royal Rumble match. Becky Lynch challenged one of the IIconics and Peyton Royce answered the challenge. This was compared to RAW’s opening segment, was so much better in terms of length. 

Becky Lynch vs Peyton Royce.

This match was used to further build this storyline between Asuka and Becky and turns out I'm right (No shit, Omar). Becky Lynch won the match with the disarmher. After the match, Asuka spoke Japanese with anger in her eyes and challenged Billie Kay to which she accepted that ended quickly with Asuka delivered the Asuka lock to Billie Kay. 

AJ Styles goes to the concession stand.

Styles was at the concession stand and basically did the opposite of what Daniel Bryan did last week. Out came Daniel Bryan and both of those men brawled until the officials separated them. 

Also happened backstage, Mandy sends a flirting message to Jimmy's Uso. Uh oh. 

Mustafa Ali vs Samoa Joe.

The match hasn't even started yet because, during Alias entrance, Samoa Joe absolutely beat the crap outta Mustafa Ali. 

Rey Mysterio vs Andrade (Cien Almas).

First off, WWE are I’m assuming getting rid of his last two names which it was whatever. Secondly, Their match late last year was amazing but was it any better? Too early to say but this was a great match.  Too many great highlights from both men. Andrade won the match with the hammerlock DDT from the top turnbuckle. Again, what a match. 


After that great encounter, Mandy was seducing Jimmy Uso and the reason why Mandy did it was became Mandy’s mad that Naomi thinks that she's as hot as Mandy. Then outta nowhere, Naomi stormed on the hotel room and beat the crap outta Mandy Rose. I feel like this will end with Naomi having a partner to face Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville. 

Shane McMahon’s Birthday Celebration.

WWE Photo
The Miz introduced the birthday boy to the ring. Shane then gave his usual cheap pop. After that, Miz showed him the gifts including a pretty good video package about Shane McMahon. 

Shane McMahon opened up about how he's always wanted to be a tag team champion and that's why he accepted this match. After the Miz sang the happy birthday song, The Bar came out and said that they will beat Shane and Miz at the Royal Rumble. McMahon then made a match between Miz and Sheamus. 

Match itself was rather quick and meaningless but this entire segment was boring. The Miz won the match with the roll up. After the match, Shane McMahon rushed to the ring to help a beaten down Sheamus. This wasn't a good way to end SmackDown Live in my opinion. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Rey Mysterio vs Andrade. 

Didn't like: Shane McMahon Birthday celebration and The Miz vs Sheamus.

WWE Smackdown Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

  It is the season premiere of Friday night Smackdown even though WWE doesn't have an offseason.  Nevertheless, it was a decent program and had a WAY better ending than whatever the hell of an ending last year's premiere of Friday night Smackdown showed.  There isn't a women's match this week and all of the AEW fanboys are looking at this like, "sEe, WWE dOeSn't feATuRe wOmeN'S mAtChEs aLsO."  pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Smackdown 2020.  The show started off with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon highlighting the scheduled matches for Smackdown as well as the superstars.  Chaos then ensued thanks to a huge brawl. Then, the "super freak" Lars Sullivan came out and delivered the freak accident to Shorty G.  Somehow, Jeff Hardy attacked him and that led to the opening match of the night between Lars and Jeff.  You know, I'm kind of surprised that two white people in McMahon and Hemsley knew who Rick James is.  Maybe I'm igno...

THE Coherent AEW Take: Christian Dior, Dior. Eddie Kingston up in all the stores!

Ever since AEW Dynamite was on Saturday night for a bit, I've been WAY behind on AEW content so excuse my ignorance. And It's Full Gear weekend which means another PPV that would last longer than the Snyder cut.  Sheeit, I'll bet the collar and elbow hold alone from the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega championship match, is longer than the entire Queen's Crown tournament.  As far as how I feel about both programs this week, well.  They did an okay job on building towards the final AEW PPV of the year this Saturday. Rampage.   Highlights.  Bryan Danielson vs Anthony Bowens.  And no, the highlight doesn't include Max Caster's verses. I'll rather listen to f**king Riff Raff than Max Caster's dig on anything.  The worst part, people are probably going to look at this and say, "can't wait for a Max Caster's appearance on Wild 'N Out!"  With that being said, this opening match was good. Danielson wins with the rebel lock.  Eddie Kingston (wi...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Fyter Fest 2020 Came Back Swinging?

Last week, on this very series, I said that I enjoyed Great American Bash better than Fyter Fest.  Well, this week is the exact opposite. AEW came in swinging with night 2 Fyter Fest.  I've not liked a Dynamite episode in several weeks so it's nice to see that the show finally executed a great show since God knows how long.   NXT      Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Mia Yim vs Candice LeRae In A Street Fight. The match went underway after Yim quickly attacked Candice LeRae during LeRae's entrance.  In the crowd area, Candice tried to nail the suplex on the table but Yim got out of that position and kicked her to which she landed through the table.  The Streetfight concluded with LeRae striking Yim with the brass knuckles followed by a swinging neck from the top of the table onto a bunch of chairs and that's how LeRae defeats the HBIC.  A fun opening match even though...
