WWE Smackdown Live 12/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

 This was a night and day difference between RAW and Smackdown Live this week because that show is by far the best episode of Smackdown Live of 2019 so far and did a great job of building hype towards the Elimination Chamber PPV. Now, on with the review. 

Opening segment. 

She claims Mr. McMahon chose her because she’s a future Hall of Famer, and Becky “has just had a few good months.”
The show started off with the titantron playing the end segment of RAW last night that transitions into Charlotte's entrance which I thought was clever. Charlotte cut a promo basically saying that this is her destiny to face Ronda Rousey at Wrestlemania. 

She also that Vince McMahon chose the right decision. The queen ended the promo by telling Ronda Rousey good luck in her match with Ruby Riott this Sunday. I love this segment and I love the fact that she's honing her character like that. Don't turn Charlotte babyface again, please? 

The IIconics vs Naomi and Carmella vs Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.

At least that match has stakes. Match itself was fine. Naomi and Carmella pick up the victory here and then The IIconics made a statement by beating up Naomi and Carmella. 

McMiz TV with special guest, the Usos. 

Jimmy & Jey decline to take a seat on “McMiz TV,” and they’re not so sure that Shane & Miz are the greatest tag team in the world.
After an okay Mustafa Ali promo (get well soon Ali), The Miz and Shane McMahon introduced their opponents at the Elimination Chamber PPV, The Usos. Then, The Usos doesn't wait to sit and both teams did a tag team test which was entertaining. 

The Miz told The Usos  “Nobody is talking about Rikishi or Maryse. Should we be talking about Mandy Rose?” ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. The Usos ended their promo by welcoming McMiz to the Usos penitentiary which led to them delivered a superkick to Miz and Shane. This was an entertaining segment. Now my excitement for this match went a bit higher. 

The Gauntlet match. Winner enters the Elimination Chamber match last. 

This was a great match with great storytelling. Daniel Bryan started the match against Kofi Kingston after cutting a pretty good promo. 

Kofi eliminated Bryan with the trouble in paradise. Out came Jeff Hardy and 
He was eliminated by Kofi with the SOS. Out came Samoa Joe and Kofi eliminated Joe with Samoa’s Clutch into a pin from Kingston. 

Styles came out and he eliminated Kofi with the Calf Crusher which led to the crowd giving Kofi Kingston a standing ovation deservingly so because that was a great performance. The match ended quickly with an RKO from outta nowhere to Styles. Again, this was great and I hope that the Chamber match is as good as this. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Opening segment, Gauntlet match, McMiz TV segment. 

Didn't like: nothing really.

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

WWE Wrestlemania 36 Night One | A Coherent Review.

When they announced that Wrestlemania was going to take place in two nights, I was hesitant mainly because I prefer a single show with meaningful matches and not the exact opposite spanned between two shows.  So far, the wrestling Gods proved me wrong. Wrestlemania 36 Night número uno was a great show. WWE gave me an escape that is desperately needed especially in this unique circumstance and I'm sure some of you guys feel this way too. As a tradition on this site, I haven’t seen the pre-show match so I can’t talk about it. Now, on with the review.  Before the show, Stephanie McMahon stated the usual thing. You know "in these times, we will entertain you". They then had the compilation of all the singers that sang America the beautiful which is actually pretty cool.  That led to this year's pirate-themed Wrestlemania opening and it was unique obviously but what makes it different is the humour in it which was fine.  The Kabuki Warriors vs Alexa Bliss And Ni...

The 5 News Week: Master P Buying House Of Glory!?, NXT TV To Air In Different Arenas!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week . Sorry for not posting in two days. Just some personal stuff I gotta deal with and my Coherent Wednesdays review was a bit rushed and I want to nail it in a no pun intended, coherent matter if that makes any sense? Hopefully, my reviews will get better in the coming weeks.  Master P Buying House Of Glory!?  A great example of human beings having an unpredictable nature to them (ask Vince McMahon), Master P was interviewed somewhere in Manhattan and he announced that he has brought an independent wrestling promotion based in New York called House Of Glory or HOG which was founded by Brian XL and Impact Alumni Amazing Red in 2014.  PWInsider and Mike Johnson gave an update to this story stating that Master P will deliver the "muscle and production team" goi...
