WWE Smackdown 12/6/20 | A Coherent Review.



This episode is going to be known for one thing, the intercontinental championship tournament finals match and that encounter tore the house down. 

As far as how I feel about this show overall, it was a decent show. 

Is This One Of The Most Controversial Scenes In The History Of WWE?

Look. Getting that line of "one of the most controversial segments in WWE history" isn't exactly rare but first, let me describe this segment. Sheamus wouldn't sign the contract unless Jeff takes a piss test. 

Hardy accepts it saying that he's going to be a beacon of light for anyone struggling with addiction. 

While Hardy was doing his business, Sheamus gave a public service announcement telling the kids watching at home that simply, don't be like Jeff.

After Hardy was done, he splashed Sheamus with his own urine and the Celtic Warrior was, drum roll please…………………., pissed (I'm so awful). Is it the most controversial segment ever? 

Hell no. However, I have one nitpick for this. Why were the results of the test brought up AFTER Jeff shoved Sheamus with his urine? 

That opening act of the show would've made some sense had the results were announced before the urine spot. I know, it's a minor issue but for some reason, it really bothered me. I’m not a fan of this rivalry and this segment visually explained it why. 

The New Day vs Shinsuke Nakamura And Cesaro.

Kofi Kingston and Big E are great. That is all. Oh, and they lost via an inside cradle to Kofi from Shinsuke Nakamura. An okay match. 

While Heavy Machinery were talking about their upcoming match, Jeff Hardy and Sheamus were brawling with each other. 

Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles. Intercontinental Championship Tournament Finals.

There were reports going around the Internet that Styles and Bryan had a classic or a match of the year contender?

The question is, was it a classic or a match of the year contender? The answer is quite simple, IT'S GOOD! 

Styles' arm was on the ring apron and Bryan stomped it which looked brutal af.

Moments later, Daniel did a double arm hook slam followed by an armbar to which Styles reversed it into the calf crusher. What a sequence that was. 

AJ hits the styles clash and then the phenomenal forearm to win this match and becomes the first-ever Intercontinental champion. Now, we know why he was traded back to the house that he built. 

I feel like Styles was playing in Bryan's element in the sense that AJ has to work a technical style (no pun intended) in order to execute a great match like that. 

In a backstage promo, Braun Strowman has no problem destroying Heavy Machinery if they try to cash in for his universal championship even though he likes Otis. 

Bayley and Sasha Banks Women's Tag Championship Celebration. 


You read the title, it was indeed a celebration. Bayley was so excited that she fooled Michael Cole thinking that he was getting a selfie from them. That moment had me dying bruh. 

That celebration was cut really short as Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross showed up as well as The IIconics via the titantron of course. That led to a mugging between Bliss, Cross, Banks and Bayley. 

A decent segment. Can I just say that Bayley is a great heel? Oh, people already know that? Okay. 

Matt Riddle is going to debut on the blue brand as early as next week. Should be interesting. 

Braun Strowman And Heavy Machinery vs Dolph Ziggler, The Miz And John Morrison. 

A meh main event. The babyface team won the match with the caterpillar from Otis to Dolph Ziggler. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 


Like: Styles vs Bryan. Intercontinental Championship Tournament Finals. 

Didn't like: The opening segment.

My Coherent Predictions On: Money In The Bank 2018

Money in the bank has THE WORST buildup of 2018 so far (at least on the RAW side). Is it going to be worst than RAW this past few weeks or possibly backlash?  Will find out this Sunday but anyways on with the predictions Sami Zayn vs Bobby Lashley What can I say about this feud? ● No meaning behind it. ● No meaning behind it. ● And why's Bobby Lashley promo last night sounds like bubbles from powerpuff  or something? Nevertheless, It's a shame that both lashley and zayn are given a shitstorm of a storyline considering that their better than this. WINNER : Bobby Lashley. Bludgeon Brothers vs Luke Gallows And Karl Anderson WOW! Another match I don't give two fucks about. However if they want to make the show intriguing and unpredictable then I'll put the belts on....   WINNER: Gallows and Anderson. Big Cass vs Daniel Bryan. WWE made the right call in my opinion on moving big Cass to smackdown because he...

WWE Survivor Series 2019 | My Coherent Review.

The Survivor Series shows as of a few years has gotten better in terms of overall positives and I thought that this year will be no exception. It pains me to say this but the 2019 edition of Survivor Series was just okay. A few highlights but overall, not an offensive 3 ½ hours of wrestling to watch, to say the least. Oh, and I haven't seen the pre-show matches so I can't talk about it.  Team RAW In Kabuki Warriors, Charlotte Flair, Natalya And Sarah Logan vs Team Smackdown In Nikki Cross, Dana Brooke, Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans And Sasha Banks vs Team NXT In Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai And Toni Storm. Women's Survivor Series Match.  Io Shirai and Kairi Sane delivered some quick moves earlier in the match. Brooke delivered an impressive rolling Senton to Shirai. Given that LeRae and Io were hurt, they were both eliminated. Bianca Belair got rid of two women.  One, it was Nikki Cross with a roll-up and the other was Sarah Logan with a 450...

WWE NXT 24/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a meh episode of NXT. If this is the first time that somebody watches NXT with this episode then you'll have a hard time convincing that particular person to watch another episode you know what I mean?  The Forgotten Sons’ Jaxson Ryker vs Humberto Carrillo.  I don't watch 205 live but I'm loving every time Humberto wrestles. The match ended in a double count out because Ryker was beating the crap out of Carrillo until Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan showed up to save the young luchador. Not a fan of the Forgotten Sons but this feud for some reason made me wanna watch those two teams fight and I don't know why exactly.  After that, Adam Cole was asked backstage in a photo shoot about the Roderick Strong vs Johnny Gargano match until Matt Riddle showed up and said that it's his turn which led to Adam Cole leaving the shoot.  Aliyah and Vanessa Bourne vs Candice LeRae and Kacy Catanzaro.  This was okay. The team of Candice LeRae and Kacy Cat...
