WWE Smackdown Live 11/6/19 | My Coherent Review.

For the second week in a row, this episode felt like Monday Night RAW on a Tuesday. This was also a skippable show other than the R Truth segments but you can find those segments on YouTube. 

Miz TV. Special Guest, Shane McMahon, Elias and Drew McIntyre.

Another week, another Miz TV segment. Well, two Miz TV segments in this case. Miz showed his shirt with his dad posing his fists with the caption on top that says "my mood" pretty much insinuating that he wants to fight. The A-lister then read a text in the style of Greg Hamilton that says "pest of the world" according to him which was lame on paper but Miz pulled it off. 

Shane and his goonies in Drew McIntyre and Elias came out with a crap ton of boos and he wasn't a fan of what Miz said about him earlier. Shane said that every talk show has a musical act and Elias started to play with the guitar. Shane said that Roman shouldn't be ashamed because he lost to the best in the world.

The Miz with anger and passion, said that Shane won the best in the world cup in a technicality. Drew McIntyre cut a promo basically saying that he's superior compared to Roman and he's gonna kick the big dog's head off at Stomping Ground. 

Miz replied by telling Drew that Shane is gonna use the Scottish psychopath just like how Shane used him and Drew looked at McMahon in an antagonistic way. Shane then insulted McMiz aka Miz's father to which he made a match between Miz vs Elias and Miz vs Drew McIntyre. 

This segment should have not opened the show. That was a mid hour segment that was thankfully saved by Miz himself. Also, Roman was nowhere to be found on this episode which is weird given that he's a SmackDown star now. Overall, this segment was passable. 

The Miz vs Elias and The Miz vs Drew McIntyre.

The commercial break in between Drew Vs Miz lasted longer than the entire mini Gauntlet match. Also, that botch from Miz when he was trying to do a springboard double axe handle looked bad but it is what it is. 

Miz won the first match with the skull crushing finale and Drew McIntyre won the second match with the claymore kick. Shane because he's a McMahon, made the match between himself and The Miz and he won the match with the triangle choke. 

Miz tapping out to Shane McMahon was just sad in the sense that Miz should've got over in the end when he was feuding with Shane and not the other way around but what do I know? 

After that, Mandy Rose gave Ember Moon a bunch of magazines that had Rose as the cover to which Ember obviously declined. Mandy Rose told the war goddess that Sonya Deville is gonna teach Carmella a lesson,  broke Ember's Nintendo Switch and Moon threw a temper tantrum. 

That would be funny if that's the reason why both Ember and Deville are feuding but then again, Chris Jericho and Kane feuded over how Chris spilled coffee over Kane in late 2000.  

Heavy Machinery vs local jobbers.

Thought that Daniel and Rowan were gonna have a squash match but clearly that's not the case and by the way, is that the guy that voice the created character in my career mode? Heavy Machinery won the match with a double team slam. Also, there was a promo cut by Daniel before this and it was aight. 

24/7 championship backstage segment time and in it, R Truth was actually in the production box and Truth couldn't get out. Carmella left because she had a match coming up and when she bounced off, Jinder Mahal with a bad Carmella impression, said that "she's" gonna bring a crowbar. Yikes, Truth. 

Carmella vs Sonya Deville.

This was fine. Sonya Deville won the match with a high knee strike. 

Then, Alexa Bliss and Nikki were interacting about Bayley fans being asshats which I can relate considering that super fans of certain wrestlers are pretty intense. Alexa Bliss told her BFF that she's gonna have a match against Bayley. 

The New Day As A Trio Are Back BaybEEEEEEEE!

In that segment, Big E made a hysterical comment about how if he had a title run for every return, he'll be Charlotte to which Kofi said that he made a booking joke. Xavier asked Kofi about who Kofi beat out of all three of his opponents? He answered by saying that he beat all of them. Dolph Ziggler showed up and he told Kofi that he was screwed at Super showdown. 

Suddenly, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn also hit the scene.
Ziggler also said that there's nowhere to run and hide inside the steel cage. Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens came out and Sami played the role of a kiss ass for the second time in a row this week (not saying that's a bad thing). 

Big E replied with verbal retaliation saying that Kofi's championship reign is about Kofi being the best at what he does. Kofi ended the segment by telling the planet that he's going to beat Ziggler at Stomping Ground. Decent segment but I LOVVVVVVVE when Big E gets serious. 

Bayley vs Nikki Cross. 

WWE Photo
These promos from Aleister Black about him being for anybody to face him is pretty odd I mean why can't you hit somebody from behind in order to get a match or something? Anyways, the match was okay. Bayley won the match with the Elbow drop. 

Returning to the 24/7 Title picture for a moment, Jinder Mahal and the ref left the arena to go to LA because the production boxes were heading there or so he thought? The dude had a vehicle that can carry boxes actually took the box that Truth was in. Meanwhile, Carmella was looking for him. Poor Carmella.

 Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed with the 24/7 championship segments on this show but I'm sure I'll get a better 24/7 championship segment soon enough. 

Backstage interview time after they replayed the Firefly fun house from RAW last night and Kayla Braxton interviewed Apollo Crews about what Andrade did to him last week. 

Crews said that he's not forgotten about what happened to which Zelina Vega came and said that Crews shouldn't mess with Andrade. Then, Vega left and Chad Gable with a new haircut was writing about something. 

The New Day vs Dolph Ziggler, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. 

WWE Photo
This one was aight. Kevin Owens delivered a devastating looking Senton on Kofi. Xavier Woods was about to hit an elbow drop to Zayn but Ziggler used the top rope to push Woods back in the ring. 

Big E was tagged by Woods and he laid waste on everybody but he was knocked out with a superkick from Ziggler. The match ended with Kofi hitting the trouble in paradise to Sami and The New Day won the match. 

Obviously, Big E looked great in this. Will see where Kofi's reign as champion will go after he's done with the showoff. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Big E's short passionate promo about Kofi. 

Didn't like: Miz tapping out to Shane but that is not surprising, the latest Aleister Black promo was cringe.

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...

WWE Wrestlemania 36 Night One | A Coherent Review.

When they announced that Wrestlemania was going to take place in two nights, I was hesitant mainly because I prefer a single show with meaningful matches and not the exact opposite spanned between two shows.  So far, the wrestling Gods proved me wrong. Wrestlemania 36 Night número uno was a great show. WWE gave me an escape that is desperately needed especially in this unique circumstance and I'm sure some of you guys feel this way too. As a tradition on this site, I haven’t seen the pre-show match so I can’t talk about it. Now, on with the review.  Before the show, Stephanie McMahon stated the usual thing. You know "in these times, we will entertain you". They then had the compilation of all the singers that sang America the beautiful which is actually pretty cool.  That led to this year's pirate-themed Wrestlemania opening and it was unique obviously but what makes it different is the humour in it which was fine.  The Kabuki Warriors vs Alexa Bliss And Ni...

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...
