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. 

Two days after he and Miz lost the SmackDown Tag Team Titles, Shane-O-Mac talks about the debut of NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa, NXT North American Champion Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Aleister Black, and he has invited them to SmackDown tonight!
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 don't mind it. 

Aleister Black vs Andrade.

Would've preferred a match between Aleister Black and Shelton Benjamin so that Black could face a veteran wrestler like Benjamin but nevertheless, this was decent. Aleister Black won the match with the black mass. I'm not hating on this but I hope that Andrade can bounce back from this. 

The Bar vs Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa.

After a decent little backstage interaction between Kofi Kingston, AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy, The Bar is set to face Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa, hence the title above (No shit, Omar). Anyways, this was a good match. The team of Gargano and Ciampa won the match with a roll up from Ciampa to Cesaro. 

Asuka vs Mandy Rose.

Before the match, Asuka was interviewed by Kayla Braxton about the RAW Women's Championship scene right now and is Asuka lost in the shuffle? Asuka replied by saying that she's ready for all challengers. Out came Mandy Rose and she basically said that she's ready for Asuka. The match was okay but that ending was no good because Asuka looked weak. Mandy won the match with a roll up. This match will lead to a championship match at Fastlane. At least I hope so because this ain't a Wrestlemania worthy match in my opinion. 

Ricochet vs Eric Young.

Wow, I thought that the entire Sanity was unemployed (sarcasm of course). I mean who do you think will win this match? Ricochet won the match with the 630. 

AJ Styles, Kofi Kingston and Jeff Hardy vs Randy Orton, Samoa Joe and Daniel Bryan.

Decent match. The team of Styles, Hardy and Kingston won the match with Kofi hitting the trouble in paradise to Daniel Bryan, pinning the WWE champion for the second time in a row and Kofi got his WWE championship match at Fastlane so that's good. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The Bar vs Gargano and Ciampa match.

Didn't like: Mandy Rose vs Asuka.

WWE NXT 24/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a meh episode of NXT. If this is the first time that somebody watches NXT with this episode then you'll have a hard time convincing that particular person to watch another episode you know what I mean?  The Forgotten Sons’ Jaxson Ryker vs Humberto Carrillo.  I don't watch 205 live but I'm loving every time Humberto wrestles. The match ended in a double count out because Ryker was beating the crap out of Carrillo until Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan showed up to save the young luchador. Not a fan of the Forgotten Sons but this feud for some reason made me wanna watch those two teams fight and I don't know why exactly.  After that, Adam Cole was asked backstage in a photo shoot about the Roderick Strong vs Johnny Gargano match until Matt Riddle showed up and said that it's his turn which led to Adam Cole leaving the shoot.  Aliyah and Vanessa Bourne vs Candice LeRae and Kacy Catanzaro.  This was okay. The team of Candice LeRae and Kacy Cat...

The 5 News Week Look-Back: Batista's Match With Triple H At Wrestlemania 35 Supposed To Be A Hell In A Cell!?, A Look Back At Eric Bischoff's Role As Executive Director.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 News Week where I usually report on the 5 major or minor news of the week but I'm not doing that here if you can't tell from the graphic I made (you're welcome, by the way).  But Rather, all throughout December, I'm going to look back at some of the news that came out in 2019. The start of a new decade is going to be upon us in the coming days and that can be exciting especially for the future of the wrestling business as a whole. I hope you guys celebrate the new year's day and of course, drink responsibly.  Fans Frustration Over The Booking Of The Main Roster Women's Division.  I wrote an article earlier this year about why women's wrestling in world wrestling entertainment of the year 2018 was great (which you can click here to read the whole thing).  However, it seems like the year after (2019) was the exact opposite. Now, they did rebound the quality of storytelling in the women's div...

RUMOUR: The Rock Offered 20 Million Dollars By Saudi Arabia To Become Champion?

Now you are probably reading this headline like "what?" but it is a speculation after all. From the dirty sheets , they've been told that Saudi Arabia  offered Dwyane 'The Rock" Johnson 20 million dollars to become WWE champion in an event on April of 2019.  A rumoured match for him is against Roman Reigns for the Universal Title at Wrestlemania which Dwayne was offered 4 million dollars for that match. If he accepts those offers, he would be the first wrestler to make that amount of money.  What do I think of this? I think this is nonsense in my opinion and the reason being is because if you go to his IMDB page, he has 11 I repeat 11 movies to appear on. Four of them are coming in 2019. and two of them are rumoured as of writing this so It's highly unlikely but never say never as they say.   What do you think of this?
