WWE RAW 4/3/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show episode of RAW was decent actually. It made me wanna watch a waste of a PPV called Fastlane with higher expectations. 

Opening Segment. 


WWE Photo
The show kicked off with the Big Dog for the second week in a row. Roman Reigns cut a promo basically saying that this is the fan's yard now and calls out Seth Rollins to the ring. Seth Rollins said that he's gonna take Roman's fight with leukaemia and use it as motivation to beat Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship. 

Roman Reigns replied by telling Seth “good luck” and Roman's wants the band to get back together. Seth Rollins was conflicted at first but later accepted it. Dean Ambrose comes out and he was hit by Elias with a guitar. Decent segment and I was expecting for Drew, Lashley and Corbin to come out but I'm glad that didn't happen.

Finn Balor, Braun Strowman and Kurt Angle vs Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre. 

WWE Photo
This match was boring three weeks ago and this match was surprisingly okay. By the end of the match, Braun Strowman ran through the barricade and Lashley delivered Finn Balor with the spear, winning the match in the process. After the match, Finn Balor got physically dismantled by Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley. Meh. 

Backstage Interview with Charly Caruso showing Heavy Machinery a locker room footage about The Ascension basically crapping on Otis. Otis then was offended in a way that he looks like he's about to tear up. I'm sure Otis gonna tear up when he and his partner are gonna sit in catering for the rest of their main roster careers, barely utilized. 

Natalya vs Ruby Riott. 

WWE Photo
This was a quick one. Natalya won the match with a small package. Then, Lacy Evans shows up and leaves. I don't where WWE is going with this honestly. 

After that, Stephanie McMahon meets with the guys over at Saturday Night Live in her office. Whatever. 

Triple H Addresses The Attack From Batista To Ric Flair Last Week. 

WWE Photo
Triple H cut a promo about how he's known Richard Flier for years and how he's been with Ric at his best and worst times. Hunter then called Batista a quitter, a piece of crap and basically called him generic for not showing up which I thought it was funny. 

Triple H ended the promo by saying that Batista is facing not the game but rather the man. This segment was fantastic and this is a great example of how you can create magic even with no concrete plans ahead if you know what I mean? 

After that, Charly Caruso asked Stephanie McMahon about the RAW Women's championship. Stephanie McMahon said that Becky's suspension has been lifted and Becky Lynch will face Charlotte Flair for the Vacant RAW Women's championship. Interesting. 

Heavy Machinery vs The B Team vs The Ascension vs Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder In A Gauntlet Match. 

WWE Photo
The shortest gauntlet match I've ever seen. The Heavy Machinery won the match with the caterpillar from Otis. I really don't get why are they making fun of Otis' weight considering that it's NOT. FUNNY. However, this match did make Heavy Machinery look good as a fighting team and that's a positive.  

Backstage segment after backstage segment after god damn backstage segment later and we got a match between Elias and Dean Ambrose. Speaking of which….

Dean Ambrose vs Elias. 

WWE Photo
Before this, there was an Elias concert and he was no surprise, crapping on Philadelphia. The match itself was fine. Elias won the match with the drift away. 

After the match, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins came out to get Dean Ambrose on the same page and Ambrose decided to leave Reigns and Rollins with nothing. 

Then, Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley came out to beat The Big Dog and The King Slayer to which Dean Ambrose ran to the rescue and the trio did the shield pose. 

Sasha Banks vs Tamina. 

WWE Photo
This was okay. Tamina won the match with the superkick. 

Aleister Black and Ricochet vs The Revival. 

WWE Photo
After a waste of a segment between Braun Strowman and the guys over at Saturday Night Live, this match happened and it was meh. The match ended with a DQ because Bobby Roode and Chad Gable were beating up The Revival and then, both teams in Aleister Black, Ricochet, Bobby Roode and Chad Gable had a physical interaction. This is not a good look for The Revival but at least they didn't lose clean this time. 

Becky Lynch Signs A Hold Harmless Contract.  

WWE Photo
Stephanie McMahon came out with the championship and the contract. McMahon then called out Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch. Becky then signed the legal agreement and Ronda Rousey marches to the ring (get it, because we're in the month of March). 

Ronda Rousey wants the RAW women's championship back to which Stephanie McMahon gave her the championship. Ronda then craps on the fans because of them booing her for the past months and attacks Becky Lynch. So, Ronda Rousey is now a heel and I ABSOLUTELY love it. No more Ms. nice bitch indeed. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: End segment, Heavy Machinery looking good in that Gauntlet match, Triple H promo. 

Didn’t like: Too many backstage segments.

My Coherent Predictions On: Money In The Bank 2018

Money in the bank has THE WORST buildup of 2018 so far (at least on the RAW side). Is it going to be worst than RAW this past few weeks or possibly backlash?  Will find out this Sunday but anyways on with the predictions Sami Zayn vs Bobby Lashley What can I say about this feud? ● No meaning behind it. ● No meaning behind it. ● And why's Bobby Lashley promo last night sounds like bubbles from powerpuff  or something? Nevertheless, It's a shame that both lashley and zayn are given a shitstorm of a storyline considering that their better than this. WINNER : Bobby Lashley. Bludgeon Brothers vs Luke Gallows And Karl Anderson WOW! Another match I don't give two fucks about. However if they want to make the show intriguing and unpredictable then I'll put the belts on....   WINNER: Gallows and Anderson. Big Cass vs Daniel Bryan. WWE made the right call in my opinion on moving big Cass to smackdown because he...

WWE Survivor Series 2019 | My Coherent Review.

The Survivor Series shows as of a few years has gotten better in terms of overall positives and I thought that this year will be no exception. It pains me to say this but the 2019 edition of Survivor Series was just okay. A few highlights but overall, not an offensive 3 ½ hours of wrestling to watch, to say the least. Oh, and I haven't seen the pre-show matches so I can't talk about it.  Team RAW In Kabuki Warriors, Charlotte Flair, Natalya And Sarah Logan vs Team Smackdown In Nikki Cross, Dana Brooke, Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans And Sasha Banks vs Team NXT In Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai And Toni Storm. Women's Survivor Series Match.  Io Shirai and Kairi Sane delivered some quick moves earlier in the match. Brooke delivered an impressive rolling Senton to Shirai. Given that LeRae and Io were hurt, they were both eliminated. Bianca Belair got rid of two women.  One, it was Nikki Cross with a roll-up and the other was Sarah Logan with a 450...

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...
