WWE Super Showdown 2020 | My Coherent Predictions.

Since I've not done a predictions piece in many moons and how this episode of RAW was one big meh, I thought it would've been an appropriate time to write down my predictions for the first Saudi show of the year. 

Now, how was the build for Super Showdown 2020? It was 50/50. The RAW side did a decent job while the current face of the word "mediocrity", Smackdown's build was skippable at best and uninteresting at worst. Without further ado, here are the predictions. 

The New Day (Big E and Kofi Kingston) vs. The Miz and John Morrison For The SmackDown Tag Team Championship.

As much as I enjoy both tag teams, this wasn't a good build and a great example of me not caring anything on what's going on the blue brand. Who do I think grabs the belts? The answer is in the Dirt sheets. 

I Predict: The Miz And John Morrison. 

Roman Reigns vs. King Corbin In A Steel Cage.

The train of uninteresting Smackdown matches continues as I'm talking about this feud that lasted for 5 F'ING MONTHS that included dog food for the majority of this run. 

Just have the Big Dog win and get this over with. Also, with the rumours that Roman might be in a high profiled match at Wrestlemania whether it's facing the Universal championship or facing Goldberg, I cannot see Roman losing this one unless WWE wants to mess with me and continue this feud via a screwy finish. 

I Predict: Roman Reigns Wins. 

Seth Rollins and Murphy (c) vs. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) For The Raw Tag Team Championship.

"Hey, it's the Monday Night Messiah," says no one beside WWE for the gazillion time. This was announced on the recent episode of RAW and the reason being is that last week, The Street Profits came out to help Kevin Owens fight Rollins and his followers in Murphy and AOP. 

That led to a match between Seth Rollins, I mean the Monday Night Messiah vs Montez Ford and Murphy vs Angelo Dawkins which were aight. 

Ever since Seth turned heel and dawned the persona of “The Monday Night Messiah”, it’s as if WWE unofficially took out Seth Rollin’s name off of their website.  I think the “Monday Night Maniacs” as Brian Zane would like to put it, will continue to do maniacs things. 

I Predict: Seth Rollins And Murphy retains. 

AJ Styles vs. Andrade vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Erick Rowan vs. R-Truth vs. Rey Mysterio. Gauntlet Match for the Tuwaiq Trophy.

So, the word “Tuwaiq” is actually the name of an escarpment and if you don’t know what an escarpment is, It’s basically a rocky hill that has a flat surface on top (I know I could’ve explained it better but it is what it is). 

Rusev was supposed to be in this match but WWE has cut him off of this match due to reported injury according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio which is weird given that WWE would’ve notified it publicly especially when one of their performers is “sidelined with an injury”. 

Anywho, AJ Styles is winning this or maybe Andrade (the dude is a champion, why is he not defending the title?) but considering that AJ is rumoured to face The dead man at Wrestlemania, this is a predictable but sensible win. 

I Predict: AJ Styles Takes The Tuwaiq Trophy.

Bayley (c) vs. Naomi For the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship.

A match that I’m surprised is happening so soon as it’s a mark-key match for the Smackdown side of the women’s division unless Sasha Banks is ready to go but Banks’ reportedly in the set for The Mandalorian so that might affect WWE’s WrestleMania plan.  

I think Bayley wins but in a screwy finish and that leads to a possible match either at Elimination Chamber or Wrestlemania. 

I Predict: Bayley.

"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt (c) vs. Goldberg For the WWE Universal Championship.

A build so short yet uninteresting at the same time but if I’ll contradict myself for a bit. I’ve been saying for weeks that I am curious as to how the match will be constructed. It could be a great match or it could badly fall flat. 

Who do I think wins? It’s hard to say. WWE could mess with me like the steel cage match earlier and have Goldberg win but they could solidify Wyatt’s reign by beating Goldberg. It’s only up to WWE to make that decision. 

If Goldberg wins which I’m not for it, I would be lying if I’m not interested in a possible battle of the spears match between Goldberg and Reigns at Wrestlemania. Oh, and I hope that God damn stupid red lights doesn’t come back if the rumours are suggesting that it is. 

I Predict: Either man win.

Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Ricochet For The WWE Championship.

What started as a dick kick from Lesnar to Ricochet the RAW before the Royal Rumble, turned into a decent triple threat number one contender’s match between Ricochet, Bobby Lashley and Seth Rollins which Ricochet won. 

Brock did show up this week in a series of some if not most appearances on the red brand so far this year which is rather shocking. This is a match-up that I’m looking forward to but like the Tuwaiq match, this is a predictable one. Should be a fun match to witness. 

I Predict: Brock Lesnar Retains. 


And that is all. Hoping that It was an enjoyable read. If so, then share this to your wrestling loving friends or family members. 

Let me know in the comments on what are your thoughts on the build for Super showdown 2020 and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 16/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another L for the red brand in terms of overall quality. And they do not need that L considering that it's the final show before this year's SummerSlam event.  Images via WWE.com   Randal Keith Orton And Riddal Are Back Together?  Randy explained his actions last week, stating that he simply doesn't owe anyone an explanation because he's Randy Orton (okay?).  Out came the most obnoxious person in Riddle and he wanted RKBRO to reunite. Styles showed up to hype up his big goof in Omos.  That RKO last week was as confusing as the thought of Jupiter Ascending being a "good movie".    The question is, did the band realigned themselves once again?  The answer was a soft no if you stopped watching the show after the Riddle and AJ Styles match (I don't blame ANYONE that stops watching Monday Night RAW).  However, that became a solid yes after Randy's bout with Omos. Am I the only one that feels kinda mid about this?  It's not terri...

WWE Smackdown Live 3/9/19 | My Coherent Review.

A pretty decent Smackdown Live episode considering that Smackdown Live has been RAW 2018: blue edition in recent weeks so I'm surprised that the episode was not terrible.  Bayley And Sasha Are Tired Of Being Humble. Well, Sasha Banks Is But Not Bayley Yet.  Bayley came out smiling as if nothing happened with some mixed reactions from the crowd. Bayley apparently doesn't get it because she's been humble with her best friend and she basically states that she's not the bad guy and never will be the bad guy (will see about that).  After Bayley talks about how Charlotte is selfish, out came the queen and she says that Charlotte is the queen of selfishness with no hugging but Sasha Banks came out before the queen was going to say about what she's going to do at Clash Of Champions.  Charlotte kicks the Smackdown women's champion and Sasha brawled with Charlotte which led to Bayley hitting Flair with a series of chair shots before Banks got her turn. ...

The 5 News Week: Everything YOU Need To Know About Adam Cole’s Status In WWE.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately.  Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  Some images via wwe.com Everything YOU Need To Know About Adam Cole’s Status In WWE.  By the time this article hits the interwebs, this piece of news will be outdated as f**k because SO many reports have been released left, right and centre regarding Adam Cole's status in world wrestling entertainment (yea, no sh*t, a**hole).  So, Let's summarize this bad boy. Adam Cole's contract expired after the 2021 edition of NXT's Great American Bash show this past July and agreed to extend his contract till Summerslam (from Wrestling Inc ).  Dave Meltzer of "I should think before I say something", has heard that Cole was offered a contract from "the best brand for white guys with wrestling podcasts", AEW while...
