WWE Smackdown Live 26/3/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a very eventful show but was it good? Yes. Matter fact, it was a great show and here's why. 

Opening Segment.

The show kicked off with The New Day after another great performance by Kofi in that gauntlet match last week. They cut a promo basically thanking the fans for being with them in this journey. 

They also said that Kofi has been treated so poorly for the past 11 years and Kofi is a great example of the power of positivity. Xavier Woods then called out Vince McMahon for answers and out came the chairman himself. 

Vince was about to say something until Daniel Bryan came out and said that if they wanna quit then let them quit. Xavier Woods replied by saying that Daniel Bryan is becoming what Bryan used to hate 5 years ago. 

Vince told them to “SHUT UP!” and decided to put Xavier Woods and Big E in a tag team gauntlet match. If they win that match then Kofi gets to go to WrestleMania. Decent segment. 

Backstage Interview with Sarah Schreiber and she interviewed Becky Lynch. In it, Becky called Charlotte a third wheel. 

Charlotte Flair vs Asuka for the SmackDown Live Women's Championship.

This was a great tv match. That Spanish fly delivered by Charlotte was fantastic to watch. But Asuka lost the match with the figure 8 from Charlotte Flair. It's a shame that Asuka lost the match like that but that win gave me more questions than answers. 

Why did WWE give Charlotte Flair the championship? Are they gonna unite the championships? Will have to wait possibly till next Monday or next Tuesday or at Wrestlemania and I don't know if that decision was a good thing or a bad thing yet. 

AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle.

Well, the match didn't last long because Randy Orton interfered and hits an RKO to AJ Styles which led to Angle delivered the angle slam to Randy Orton. I mean I don't hate it considering that the match would've been okay at best anyways. 

Shane McMahon Talks About How He Loves To Watch Himself Beat Up Miz’s Father. 

Shane promises to punish The A-Lister’s father for spawning the “greatest Miz-take of his life.”
The A-lister cut a promo about how Shane lit a fire inside him and how Shane McMahon got really personal by beating his father in front of him. The Miz also said that his match with Shane McMahon is a fall count anywhere match. Shane McMahon’s music hits and Shane brought in security guards, Shelton Benjamin, Primo Colon and Sanity. Shane McMahon told Miz that Miz is as dumb as Miz's father looks (huh?). 

McMahon also said that he watched himself beating The Miz and grabbing Miz’s father's face over and over again because it feels good to him. After Shane McMahon called Miz a “Mizztake”, The Miz got really pissed off and beats up a bunch of security guards and Sanity. 

Wow, one person in Miz beats up an entire team in Sanity. That's laughable to me but nevertheless, this was a great segment and the more I see Shane and Miz interact, the more I'm really looking forward to this match. The thing I love about heel Shane is that this is a Shane McMahon we've never seen before and that's a psychotic heel Shane McMahon. 

The New Day vs The Bar vs Rusev and Nakamura vs Gallows and Anderson vs The Usos. 

Sheamus & Cesaro carry out a vicious post-match assault and drive Big E through a table!
The New Day eliminated Gallows and Anderson, Rusev and Nakamura, The Bar but The Usos came out and decided to forfeit. So, at this point, The New Day has to beat one more team and here came Daniel Bryan and Rowan. 

The New Day defeated the team of Bryan and Rowan with a count out victory which means that Kofi will go to WrestleMania and face Daniel Bryan for the WWE championship. Yeah man. Hopefully, this pays off at Wrestlemania. What an ending. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The ending to The New Day vs The Bar vs Rusev and Nakamura vs Gallows and Anderson vs The Usos Gauntlet match, Shane McMahon Talks About How He Loves To Watch Himself Beat Up Miz’s Father, Charlotte Flair vs Asuka for the SmackDown Live Women's Championship. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

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...

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...

WWE NXT 17/7/19 | My Coherent Review.

I didn't feel anything about this show overall besides one very good match and an impactful debut. Here's why.  Matt Riddle vs Arturo Ruas.  Those two guys have a background in MMA so it was really interesting as to how the match turned out. Started out with some technical wrestling which if you've been a follower of this blog then you'll know how much I LOVE technical submission wrestling.   The match ended with Matt Riddle delivering a series of rights and the ref stopped it which means that Matt won the match. After that, a masked man revealed as Killan Dan was beating the crap out of him and it was so bad that Mauro Ranallo screamed "Mamma Mia" on top of his lungs which is pretty rare. I actually really liked this. It's a different way to debut somebody and insert that person quickly in a feud instead of having that superstar wrestle in so many squash matches which I don't mind if they went in that route.  The Street Profits ...
