WWE Smackdown Live 26/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was overall an okay show that did a decent job at building some intrigued for what is a waste of a PPV in Fastlane. By the way, There's no women's match on this show which is rather odd.

Opening segment.

KO sits down at the table and signs the contract to challenge Bryan!

The show kicked off with Shane McMahon, Stephanie McMahon, Rowan and Daniel Bryan all in the ring for a contract signing which is rare that a contract signing actually starts a wrestling show. Shane McMahon then showed Kofi Kingston career highlights which led to Shane McMahon and Stephanie McMahon introducing Kofi Kingston.

Kofi Kingston cut a promo saying that he finally got a one on one WWE championship match after 11 years and he's gonna beat Daniel Bryan for that title. After that, Daniel Bryan signed the contract and Kofi was about to sign the contract but Vince McMahon randomly showed up.

Vince announced that he's replacing Kofi with the returning Kevin Owens. First, Vince screwed Becky Lynch and now he screwed Kofi Kingston. That's odd because a Daniel Bryan vs Kevin Owens match is a Wrestlemania worthy match. Interesting to see where this goes.

The Bar vs The Hardy Boyz.

Man, Matt Hardy looks great in this match. Anyways, this is a rematch from Extreme Rules 2017 if I'm not mistaken and it was okay. The Hardy Boyz won the match with the Swanton bomb to Sheamus from Jeff Hardy.

Minutes after that, there was a locker segment between Aleister Black, Ricochet and Lana. Lana said that she doesn't get the hype and the veterans in Rusev and Nakamura will crush both of them. Aleister Black replied by saying that Rusev and Nakamura will fade to Black.

R Truth vs Andrade vs Rey Mysterio for the United States championship.

R Truth, I thought you went miss or something? Nevertheless, a decent match but Andrade should've won that championship considering that R Truth is not doing ANYTHING with the US title. After the match, Rey was going for the 619 but Andrade retreated.

Charlotte Talks About Becky's Arrest And Ronda Rousey Putting The Belt On The Middle Of The Ring.

The Queen says Mr. McMahon was right about how she stays in her lane and always delivers, unlike Becky Lynch.

Charlotte Flair cut a good promo in that ring as usual. The queen calls Becky Lynch a criminal and calls Ronda Rousey a quitter. She also said that both women are scared of Charlotte and she showed footage from RAW back in November when Ronda Rousey was cutting a promo saying that she's not gonna quit basically. She ends the promo by saying that Charlotte will be on RAW next week so that Vince McMahon will crown her as the new RAW women's champion. Really like this segment and Charlotte might be other than Tommaso Ciampa, the best heel in all of WWE.

Aleister Black and Ricochet vs Rusev and Shinsuke Nakamura.

Another good showcase for both Aleister Black and Ricochet in what it was overall a decent match. The team of Aleister Black and Ricochet won the match with the black mass to Nakamura.

Then, Kayla Braxton interviewed AJ Styles about how he's ready for another challenge in the house that AJ Styles built. After that, Randy Orton showed up and said: “The house that AJ Styles what?” Is that WWE’S attempt at comedy because I'm confused about what I just saw.

Kofi Kingston and Kevin Owens vs Daniel Bryan and Rowan.

Started slow but picked up really nicely. The team of Kevin Owens and Kofi Kingston won the match with the stunner from Owens to Daniel Bryan. After the match, it seemed like Kofi is okay with Owens taking his spot which I don't get if that's the case but will see what happens.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos:

Like: Charlotte segment.

Didn't like: R Truth's win.

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! That's it. That's the intro. Rampage. Highlights. HOOOOOOOOK! I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH! What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course. Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud. FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me? The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs. Some Other Things That Happened. Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment. Dynamite. Highlights. Hangman Page...

WWE Smackdown 12/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

While there were a few redeeming qualities about this week's episode of Smackdown, the show as a whole was kinda bleh to me. Images via WWE.com Chaos Ensued Amongst The SmackDown Women's Survivor Series Team. Sonya Deville introduced the participants in the women's Smackdown Survivor Series team to which a brawl ensued after Sasha Banks wanted to beat up Shotzi. Naomi came out to even the odds between the heels and the babyfaces in that scene. And you know what all of that means? A 6 women tag team match, Playas. By far, the most impressive person in this match was Naomi. The finesse she showed with her series of kicks was *chefs kiss*. Speaking of impressive, the crowd was BEHIND Aliyah and that's cool. Naomi's assistance led to Aliyah pinning Natalya to win the entire match. I said "Naomi's assistance" for a reason because as soon as that victory, Aliyah was taken out of the Survivor Series team. God damn, Sonya Deville legit hates POCs succeed...

WWE RAW 22/2/21 | A Late Coherent Review.

I'm happy to say that I liked this week's edition of Monday Night RAW for the most part which is something I've wanted to say for several months. Images via WWE.com Miz TV. Special Guest, The WWE Championship Around Miz's Waist. Yes, my friends. The Miz is the WWE champion like it's 2011 all over again. Miz was glowing about his WWE title win. The Hurt Business in Bobby Lashley and MVP showed up to tell Miz that they mentioned a deal with him regarding a championship opportunity for Bob Lashley. Bob Lashley then threatened the guy to give him an answer in an hour and that's how the opening segment ends. This segment does something that is rare in WWE TV and that is, simple storytelling. Every single time, WWE has overcomplicated their storytelling and it's quite frustrating at times. It's nice to see a story playing out that uses a minimalistic storytelling device. An hour later, Braun Strowman got into the mix telling Adam Pearce and Shane McMa...
