WWE Smackdown 7/8/20 | A Coherent Review.


If you love no disqualifications finishes then this show is for you.

SmackDown is finally the Arsenal of television shows.

One week, it delivers a good showing and the next week is the exact opposite.

Firefly funhouse.

It looks like the preview promos from various superstars are no more?

In this short edition of the firefly funhouse, Bray says that Braun has what The Fiend wants and that is the universal championship.

I mean, why would Bray put Braun Strowman in that dirty a** swamp?

Matt Riddle vs "Too Many Limes, Too Many Limes" Sheamus.

The match was good, good, good. The match concluded via a DQ because of Shorty G taking advantage out of King Corbin's ransom.

Which means that Matt is the winner of the match. That pissed Sheamus off and he brogue kicked Shorty G not once but twice.

Sheamus confronted King Corbin in a backstage segment saying that he'll kick Corbin's head off.

If The Celtic Warrior is going to be a babyface, can not please be his 2012 self where he lost his badass ways and became a bad comedian?

Miz And John Morrison Talked To Mandy Rose's Hair.

Yes, that's literally what they did. They interviewed "Mandy Rose's hair".

"Rose's hair" was playing the victim in this conversation pretty much blaming Mandy Rose for some reason (that was stupid). 

The hosts of the Dirt Sheets then brought up their other guest, Sonya Deville.


Deville basically said that she wanted to make Rose ugly on the outside as she is on the inside.

Out came Heavy Machinery and they gave a beating to Miz And Morrison.

Hey, at least it didn't lead to a tag team match, right? *sees a match graphic that the match is happening* F**K!

Cesaro vs Lince Dorado.

The match would've been better if given more time but nevertheless, it was decent. Cesaro defeated Lince with the neutralizer.

I honestly thought that Dorado would win the match given that the blue brand literally got no tag teams and the show has no tag team title on the line at SummerSlam.

The Fiend Appears On Smackdown.

With full entrance as a matter of fact. The Fiend tried to nail the mandible claw on Bliss again.

However, Wyatt was interrupted by "it was definitely not an iPhone" video promo from Braun Strowman saying that The Fiend will encounter the monster at SummerSlam.

We went from a great ending like Smackdown last week to a disappointing segment like this one.

Jeff Hardy vs King Corbin.

WWE Photo


The match was over with a DQ thanks to a brogue kick from Sheamus to Jeff Hardy, declaring Hardy the winner of that bout.

It was followed by an impromptu match between Sheamus and King Corbin that ended with a brogue kick that gave Sheamus the victory due to a distraction by Matt Riddle.

In an interview with Kalya Braxton, Big E was encouraged by his brothers in Kofi and Xavier Woods as well as the fans to purse a singles run and he was thankful for that.

Sasha Banks and Bayley were called to a room for a video conference by Stephanie McMahon.

The boss (not Sasha Banks) told the so-called boss that Banks will face Asuka at SummerSlam.

As far as Bayley's title is concerned, there will be a triple brand battle royal to determine Bayley's challenger at SummerSlam for the SmackDown women's championship.

What does a triple brand battle royal even mean? Will find out next week when that battle royal takes place.

Heavy Machinery vs The Miz And John Morrison.

Morrison's entrance isn't the same without pyro.

Also, the tag match ended with a DQ due to Mandy Rose beating up Sonya Deville? Huh?

Nevermind that awful finish, why did every match on this show (except for one) end with a DQ?

WWE Photo


So, a masked group called Retribution hijacked the show to end this week's episode of Smackdown.

Well, that was ridiculous and the camera shots didn't make this a whole lot better either. That was so f'ing lame.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.

Like: Sheamus vs Matt Riddle.

Didn't like: Too many DQs, the ridiculous ending.

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...
