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.

WWE Photo


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.

WWE Photo


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.

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
