WWE NXT 13/2/19 | My Coherent Review.


Besides the main event, this show was okay at best and here's why. 

Dominic Djakovic vs Shane Throne.

The show started off with a match which is refreshing to see. At one point, Dominic did a beautiful springboard corkscrew plancha on the outside. The match ended with Dominic Djakovic did his feast your eyes finish to Throne and won the match. Overall an okay match. 

After that, The Undisputed Era cut a promo backstage and they said that they want to finish what they started in 2019. 

Also something that happened backstage, there was a verbal interaction between Bianca Belair, Io Shirai and Kairi Sane. Like I said on my last week's review (which you can click here), a number one contender match between Belair and Io Shirai makes sense to me at this point. 

 Street Profits vs Humberto Carrillo & Stacey Ervin Jr.

Before this, Kassius Ohno interrupted a tag team match and cut a promo basically wanted to leave NXT and then, Keith Lee sucker punched him. After that, Lee wanted to continue this scheduled match. 

The match itself was solid. Street Profits won the match here. After the match, The Street Profits grabbed a microphone and they basically called out The War Raiders.  Marcel Barthel & Fabian Aichner and Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch came out and they all want the tag team titles. 

Out came The Wars Raiders and once The Undisputed Era came out, this turned into chaos. This segment made me interested in the NXT tag team division for the first time in a month now. In other words, I like this. 

Aliyah vs Taynara Conti.

After Aliyah victory over Conti, Shayna Baszler, Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir beat Aliyah and Conti to make a statement. I have to say, I really like this version of Aliyah. I wanna see more of that.  

Ricochet vs Adam Cole.

A very good main event. Ricochet won the match with a death valley driver and then out came the rest of Undisputed Era to beat up Ricochet. Aleister Black came to the rescue and he couldn't handle all 4 members of Undisputed Era. So, he along with Ricochet are down while the Undisputed Era stood tall.  

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Main event, the ending to the Street Profits and Humberto Carrillo & Stacey Ervin Jr.

Didn't like: (none).

Should Dave Meltzer Get Rid Of His Rating System?

So a few weeks ago, good old Dave Meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter gave the Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny omega match at dominion 2018 a 7-star rating. According to the interent wrestling database , this match is by far his HIGHEST match rating ever (i don't blame him because the match was amazing). So statistically, this is his favourite match of all time . Now, why I'm writing this now?  Well, his best match ratings have been a consistent 5 stars since 1983 with the exception of all the Omega vs Okada matches and the Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match at AJPW's Budokan hall show in June of 1994.  There are fans that take his match ratings as an offence somehow like "Why he rates X match better than Y match?" or thinks that he "hates" WWE which is ridiculous considering that he gave three WWE matches a 5 star ratings just this past year. One was the ladder match to crown the first ever NXT North American champion, the Johnny Garga...

WWE Smackdown Live 10/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was a bad show that did nothing as a wrestling fan to gain any excitement for extreme rules. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good. No scratch that, i'm gonna give you what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. WHAT'S OK The opening segment and the brawl after that The opening segment was meh. And the brawl after that was fine. Didn't make me go "OHHHHHHHHHHH" or anything like along those lines. That brawl leads to a TEN MAN TAG TEAM match (Ummmmmm no shit omar). I will say this, the segment kinda teased the fact that maybe kane will turn on his best friend? I don't know. Should be interesting.  Andrade "cien" almas vs Sin cara The match was surprisingly decent. At one point andrade delivered a devastating stomp to sin cara on the ring apron. Andrade wins with a running knee to sin cara on the middle rope. Hoping andrade can move on to bigger and better things.  WHAT'S BAD ...

WWE Smackdown Live 19/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This show was overall, a skippable show just like RAW yesterday and here's why.  Opening segment.  The show kicked off with Shane McMahon with his usual cheap pop. After that, Shane McMahon announced that Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Tommaso Ciampa will be on SmackDown Live just like RAW last night (click here to read my RAW review).  Out came The Miz and he said that he hasn't stop thinking about their match at Elimination Chamber. Miz also said he admitted that he used Shane because Miz wanted to make Shane McMahon understand where's Miz's coming from.  Miz then wanted a rematch between him, Shane McMahon and the Usos for the SmackDown Live tag team championship to which the Usos came out and insulted The Miz.  That led to Shane McMahon saying that the rematch is on but at Fastlane in two weeks. So we got the first official match scheduled for Fastlane and considering that Shane is a McMahon and has all the Authority, I do...
