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.

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.

Should Dave Meltzer Get Rid Of His Rating System?

So a few weeks ago, good old Dave Meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter gave the Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny omega match at dominion 2018 a 7-star rating. According to the interent wrestling database , this match is by far his HIGHEST match rating ever (i don't blame him because the match was amazing). So statistically, this is his favourite match of all time . Now, why I'm writing this now?  Well, his best match ratings have been a consistent 5 stars since 1983 with the exception of all the Omega vs Okada matches and the Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match at AJPW's Budokan hall show in June of 1994.  There are fans that take his match ratings as an offence somehow like "Why he rates X match better than Y match?" or thinks that he "hates" WWE which is ridiculous considering that he gave three WWE matches a 5 star ratings just this past year. One was the ladder match to crown the first ever NXT North American champion, the Johnny Garga...

WWE Smackdown Live 10/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was a bad show that did nothing as a wrestling fan to gain any excitement for extreme rules. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good. No scratch that, i'm gonna give you what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. WHAT'S OK The opening segment and the brawl after that The opening segment was meh. And the brawl after that was fine. Didn't make me go "OHHHHHHHHHHH" or anything like along those lines. That brawl leads to a TEN MAN TAG TEAM match (Ummmmmm no shit omar). I will say this, the segment kinda teased the fact that maybe kane will turn on his best friend? I don't know. Should be interesting.  Andrade "cien" almas vs Sin cara The match was surprisingly decent. At one point andrade delivered a devastating stomp to sin cara on the ring apron. Andrade wins with a running knee to sin cara on the middle rope. Hoping andrade can move on to bigger and better things.  WHAT'S BAD ...

WWE Smackdown Live 19/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This show was overall, a skippable show just like RAW yesterday and here's why.  Opening segment.  The show kicked off with Shane McMahon with his usual cheap pop. After that, Shane McMahon announced that Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Tommaso Ciampa will be on SmackDown Live just like RAW last night (click here to read my RAW review).  Out came The Miz and he said that he hasn't stop thinking about their match at Elimination Chamber. Miz also said he admitted that he used Shane because Miz wanted to make Shane McMahon understand where's Miz's coming from.  Miz then wanted a rematch between him, Shane McMahon and the Usos for the SmackDown Live tag team championship to which the Usos came out and insulted The Miz.  That led to Shane McMahon saying that the rematch is on but at Fastlane in two weeks. So we got the first official match scheduled for Fastlane and considering that Shane is a McMahon and has all the Authority, I do...
