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.

AEW Double Or Nothing | My Coherent Review.

I was supposed to post this review two hours after the show aired but my internet connection went down for several hours and I got extremely frustrated and if you’re addicted to the interwebs, that is probably the scariest thing ever other than your worst fear of course. Anyways, I, unfortunately, haven't watched the two pre-show matches because I was out working. So, the million dollar question, was AEW's Double Or Nothing a great show? I'm happy to announce that it was an outstanding PPV overall. One of the problems I had with ALL IN is the match card placements and they fixed it in this PPV.  Oh, and I'm warning you guys that this PPV review is longer than my Wrestlemania 35 review (which you can click here ) just because a lot of things happened on this show. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find pictures for each match so y’all are only going to see the writing.  Double Or Nothing started off with the Hamilton stars sang the American National anthem (omg, can Ja...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking).  However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?”  In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t.  There are fans out there on the interweb that b...

WWE RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending.  I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List".  Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down.  Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%.  Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW.  Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...
