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 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...

Escape The Undertaker | A Short Coherent Review.

The internet. The only place where your YouTube recommended is filled with "I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT'S PG".  It is also home to Netflix which released an interactive movie produced by future Raspberry award-winning movie studio, WWE films. Look, the idea of 3 black dudes being trapped inside a house by a white conservative dead hog, is offensive and by that description alone, you weren't sure for a sec whether you were watching Netflix or the Daily Wire.  Luckily, there wasn't a cameo from Tessa Blanchard so you should be fine.  As a fan of Mass Effect 2, I love some dialogue trees that alter the events of a movie/game.  And, from a functionality standpoint, it is a technical marvel how it gives the audience the illusion of choice (you know, like our current economic system).  I say "illusion" because therein lies the main problem I have with the film. Your choices don't matter here. Even in a WWE movie, they're still trying to avoid the fan...

WWE Smackdown Live 11/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall a good show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.  WHAT'S GOOD Jeff Hardy vs Shinsuke Nakamura The promo before this was okay however that was a goooood match. Better than their in counter at SummerSlam. Jeff was about to beat Nakamura, however, randy outta nowhere pushes hardy on the outside hence Nakamura retains the championship and Jeff wins via DQ. They had a brawl that was better than the brawl last night on RAW I'll tell you that much.  Samoa Joe telling a bedtime story in a good not boring way.   I thought from the editing to the design of the book to the way Samoa Joe express the story was fantastic. The thing I LOVE about this is that it's a outside in the box type of promo package that worked. Man, I can't wait for this match. On Sunday night when the PPV airs, I think I'm gonna call my local "WENDYYYS" (My goodness that was awfu...
