WWE Smackdown Live 17/9/19 | My Coherent Review.

Image result for roman reigns on smackdown live
Smackdown Live was like Clash of Champions, okay overall. That’s it. 

Oh, you wanna know why I feel this way? Okay, well here you go. 

The New Day vs The Revival And Randy Orton.

This show started off with a match. A 6 man tag team match in fact which is a nice change of pace. for this show. Wish I could say the same thing about this match. Not that I have a problem with this match but rather it was okay. The match ended with Big E preventing an RKO machine and Kofi delivers the trouble in paradise to win this match but then, out came Brock Lesnar along with Paul Heyman and no, it's not a typo.


Heyman said that it's a bad day for the New Day yes it is and was informed that Brock Lesnar challenges Kofi to match for the WWE title on Friday Night SmackDown premiere on FOX. Kofi accepts it and ate an F5 afterwards. 
Kofi will defend the WWE Title against Lesnar on Friday, Oct. 4, the premiere of SmackDown LIVE on FOX!

This is no pun intended, big news and Kofi has faced Lesnar before so will the outcome be the same on Friday? Will find out soon. Also, when they put the match graphics later in the night, they played that theme song and I'm not feeling it right now. 

Erick Rowan had a sit-down interview with Micheal Cole about Luke Harper's return and his win at Clash Of Champions thanks to Harper and he said that he no longer wants to be a follower but rather a leader. Meh. 

Ali vs Shinsuke Nakamura.

The match hasn't begun thanks to Sami Zayn distracting Ali which led to a Kinshasa but after that beatdown, Kevin Owens came out with his lawyer I suppose and Shane McMahon brought up paperwork as well as Kevin Owens along with a mic. 

Kevin Owens told him about the paperwork which is a lawsuit in which he gets somewhere in the 20 million dollars range and he did this to embarrassed Shane because he feels that he’s been treated unfairly. I don't blame the guy, pay your bills man. 

Charlotte Flair vs Sasha Banks.

Before the match, Offset from Migos introduced Charlotte Flair which was nice. Charlotte took out both Banks and Bayley with a moonsault. The match ended in a DQ because Bayley put her hands on Flair after Flair did the figure 4.

A 2 on 1 beating later and Carmella came out to even the odds. I forgot to mention this in my RAW review yesterday that the RAW women's championship will take place inside hell in a cell and I can't wait for it. The match was aight. By the way, Carmella of all people makes the save? Bayley and Carmella were good friends in real life but that wasn't referenced at all on TV so? 

The Coronation Of King Corbin. 

Corbin cracks a bunch of height jokes and claims that Chad is like all these people because all their dreaming and hard work will still result in them coming up short!

After he wore the cap and the crown, Corbin cut a promo basically saying that he's the king that everybody needs and calls out one of the finals of the king of the ring tournament which was Chad Gable.

King Corbin made short jokes and Gable wasn't having it which led to Gable destroying the crown, the cap and that stick that I don't know the name of. The fact that Chad is getting featured after the tournament is really nice. That segment was decent though. 

Heavy Machinery vs The B Team. 

WWE Photo
This match was one-sided aka it was a squash match (no shit, Omar). Heavy Machinery won the match with the compactor. 

Daniel Bryan Speaks After He Ate An Iron Claw Two Weeks Ago. 

Bryan recalls being the one to give Erick Rowan a chance when no one else would and winning the SmackDown Tag Team Titles together and claims he always treated Rowan as his friend.

So, Daniel Bryan came out to talk about Erick Rowan and how he feels betrayed because he's treated Rowan nothing but the utmost respect. 

Speaking of the devil, out came Erick Rowan and he told him that he's basically tired of being a puppet and Luke Harper sought attacked Bryan and they ganged up on the former planet's champion. The Big Dog makes the save but that failed thanks to a powerbomb on the ring post and a double crucifix bomb to Bryan through a table.

Just like Charlotte, I guess Bryan is a face once again and I'm not feeling it at this moment. However, Rowan and Harper have looked strong for the second night this week and honestly, I'm impressed. 

I mean they were built up pretty nicely before and they ended up being not interesting and gone nowhere if that makes sense so I hope that it's not the case this time. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: the ending, Chad Gable being a major feud.

Didn’t Like: Carmella showing up made no sense.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
