WWE Smackdown 17/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

This recent instalment of Smackdown was decent.

The women, for the most part, was the standout in this program and it honestly carried the show from a meh to a decent watch.

The show started off with Jeff Hardy and Sheamus talking about the upcoming bar fight which you can scroll down to read my thoughts on it.

Sasha Banks and Bayley Gives Us A New Perspective Of The Word "Greatness".

The so-called "golden role models" were praising their greatness to which Nikki Cross was furious about the way she lost at Extreme Rules.

So, Nikki wanted a rematch for the SmackDown women's championship and Bayley accepted that bout if Nikki faces her best friend, Alexa Bliss to determine the number one contender.

That match started immediately after this segment and it was a good opener.

Bayley and Sasha Banks were entertaining in the commentary as per usual.

When Corey Graves brought the fact that Bayley didn't want to hit Bliss with a kendo stick a few years ago and I'm not gonna lie, that was funny.

The match concluded with a W from Nikki Cross via an inside cradle. This is the most interested I've ever been in Nikki Cross since God knows how long.

Coming from a guy that wasn't looking forward to this encounter initially during the build for Extreme Rules, I'm glad I was proven wrong in that regard.

In the latest edition of the firefly funhouse, Bray Wyatt tells the world that it is now The Fiend's turn to take out Braun Strowman.

I'm hoping the build for the rubber match is actually you know, GOOD.

Matt Riddle vs Tony Nese.

Yes, THE Tony Nese is in action in a separate brand which explains how the company isn't consistent when it comes to their brand extension but that's another conversation for another time.

Riddle defeats Nese with the bro Derek. Matt then calls out King Corbin, bruh and he got what he wanted.

The king told Riddle that he doesn't belong in Smackdown but rather NXT or maybe 205 because he could be a top star (he's 216 Ibs, Corbin). After that, Matt attacked Tony Nese. Well, that was boring and uninteresting.

Miz TV. Special Guest, Naomi.

The Miz and John Morrison asked Naomi about the hashtag "#NaomiDeservesBetter" and she appreciates the fans for rocking with her while also mentioning that she has been the most consistent performer since day one.

The hosts then brought up Lacey Evans and she was insulting her while applying her lipstick. Naomi gave Evans a right (no pun intended) and that's how the segment ended.

I liked Naomi's promo and the rest was just fine. Also, Naomi better win the match against Lacey Evans next week.

Kofi Kingston told Big E that he's out for 6 weeks and E should focus on his singles career which I'm definitely excited for that run to happen.

Maybe a feud between Styles and Big E for the IC title? Hmmm?

Shorty G vs Lince Dorado vs Gran Metalik vs Drew Gulak. Winner Faces AJ Styles For The Intercontinental Championship.

Speaking of the phenomenal one. This was a decent fatal four-way action.

Gran Metalik picked up the W and became the number one contender for the title in the process with a beautiful springboard elbow drop.

Styles slapped the number one contender but he was taken out of the ring with a DDT. Should be a good one.

In an interview with *Billie Kay's voice* KALYA, the SmackDown tag team champions says this ain't Big E's time but rather their time. God damn, the tag team division is em. Ty.

Jeff Hardy vs Sheamus In A Bar Fight.

I mean, it's a bar fight. Nothing too unique in this cinematic beating between the Celtic Warrior and the Charismatic Enigma. It was fine for what it was.

Jeff Hardy won the bar fight with a Swanton Bomb from the top of the beer barrels.

Sheamus' motivation as to why he was antagonizing Jeff for months was lacking and he didn't gain ANYTHING from this story at all.

I get that it was a way to make the audience cheer for the good guy in Jeff Hardy but it was executed in the lamest of ways.

I hope this is the conclusion to that dreadful storyline.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.

Like: Nikki Cross vs Alexa Bliss, a tease to a possible singles run for Big E, Naomi's promo in the Miz TV segment.

Didn't like: King Corbin and Matt Riddle segment.

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking). However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?” In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t. There are fans out there on the interweb that b...

WWE RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending. I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List". Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down. Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%. Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW. Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...

AEW Double Or Nothing | My Coherent Review.

I was supposed to post this review two hours after the show aired but my internet connection went down for several hours and I got extremely frustrated and if you’re addicted to the interwebs, that is probably the scariest thing ever other than your worst fear of course. Anyways, I, unfortunately, haven't watched the two pre-show matches because I was out working. So, the million dollar question, was AEW's Double Or Nothing a great show? I'm happy to announce that it was an outstanding PPV overall. One of the problems I had with ALL IN is the match card placements and they fixed it in this PPV. Oh, and I'm warning you guys that this PPV review is longer than my Wrestlemania 35 review (which you can click here ) just because a lot of things happened on this show. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find pictures for each match so y’all are only going to see the writing. Double Or Nothing started off with the Hamilton stars sang the American National anthem (omg, can Ja...
