Monday Night RAW. A show so bland that I've not reviewed it in 2 weeks.  This week was okay. Nothing too crazy happened that day.   pictures via WWE.com Drew McIntyre's WWE Championship Celebration.  All the yesteryears, Ric Flair, Big Show, Shawn Michaels and Christian were all in the ring to meet with the WWE champion, Drew McIntyre for a celebration.  But, Randy basically pulled out a Braun Strowman from 2017 "I am not finished with you" speech.  After that, Drew issued an open challenge for the WWE title because his name is Drew and he loves to fight (wrong guy, Omar).  I went from really liking this feud to being kinda over it.  It feels like it's something for Drew to do which is a sign that Randy's heat has definitely cooled off.  Asuka vs Zelina Vega For The RAW Women's Championship.  Before the match, Kayla Braxton looked really bored when interviewing Zelina Vega.  Don't know why I pointed that out but it is what it is....

Clash Of Champions.  It's the night where all the championships are on the line.  EXCEPPPT the women's tag team championship and all the NXT championships.  This is a PPV concept that would've been more special had the majority of the titles never been defended so often.  With that being said, how was the show? It was decent as a whole package.  One of the reasons why I like the show was how early the show ended.  As a guy that lives outside of North America, I appreciate that.  pictures via WWE.com PRE-SHOW: Cesaro And Shinsuke Nakamura vs The Lucha House Party For The Smackdown Tag Team Championship.  The match itself was decent.  Not gonna lie, the way Lince Dorado took the exploder suplex from Nakamura that had Dorado land on to the crowd area was great.  Cesaro and Nakamura get to keep the belts with the Cesaro swing followed by a Kinshasa.  Surprised? No.  I don't even know where the champions go from here because th...

Yea. This was supposed to be a 5 News Week.  But because of how slow the news was this week, I decided to bring you guys a few news I guess?  Roman Reigns Reaction To The Rock's Comments On A Possible Match Between Each Other. The tribal chief, Roman Reigns reacted to what The Rock said regarding a match between himself and Reigns (from give me sport ):  "It's so funny how a lot of people always say; 'well if you ever go back to WrestleMania, who would be the opponent that you would face?' "It feels like the one that would make sense would be Roman, in terms of box office draw." The universal champion himself kind of responded to that tweet. . @TheRock at #WrestleMania ... Jey @WWEUsos at #WWEClash , my responsibility is putting our family’s name on top of the card and at the center of @WWE Universe. https://t.co/4uIOz0zHbb — Roman Reigns (@WWERomanReigns) September 23, 2020      The Roman vs Rock match has been rumoured for YEARS. I even talked about...

Sorry for missing The RAW Review and The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays. Long story short, I had to deal with family shenanigans.  But, you ain't here to read my apologies, do ya?   You're here for THE coherent review for the blue show and my overall thoughts?  It was decent. At least I wasn't bored watching and yawning throughout most of the show (I'm talking to you Monday Night RAW).  pictures via WWE.com AJ Styles, Jeff Hardy And Sami Zayn Face To Face Confrontation.  We're kicking this off with the Intercontinental championship side of things.  Pretty much, all three men state their case as to why they will walk out of Clash Of Champions as THE undisputed Intercontinental champion.  This ain't a face to face confrontation without a brawl, right? Zayn attacked both men with a ladder.  As a consequence of that action, Zayn will face Jeff Hardy and AJ Styles, making the opening match a triple threat bout.  AJ Styles vs Jeff Hardy vs Sami...

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  The Parking Lot Brawl On AEW Dynamite Was Shot In One Take!?  This week saw a parking lot brawl on AEW Dynamite that had me thinking whether this bout belongs in the conversation of best TV matches of all time.  But, you might be surprised that the match was filmed in one take if you watch a sh*t tone of WWE or some action movies according to Tony Khan in a tweet reading….. It was all shot at once in one take. No edits other than dropping the audio on the F word. One amazing take. — Tony Khan (@TonyKhan) September 17, 2020 If a match made me think of putting in the list of best-televised matches of ALL TIME should tell you how outstanding the fight was.  If you haven't seen it yet, go out of your way to watch it.   Another Update Regarding Ivar'...

Other than a few nitpicks, I thought the blue brand this week produced some decent programming and here's why.  Pictures via WWE.com The Dirt Sheet.  So, what's going on in the Dirt Sheet?  Well, they mostly talked about Mandy Rose's trade to Monday Nights and how Miz is trying to help Otis focus on cashing in the contract.  The big man had enough as he and his partner Tucker Knight laid waste on them.  Oh, and Miz was stripped down by Otis that had Miz exposed his "tighty whiteys".  We're starting this show with a feud that I don't give two sh*ts.  That ending especially was cheap lame humour.  "Haha, look at Miz wearing undergarments you know, like everybody else".  Cesaro vs Gran Metalik.  This was a decent match.  The rest of the Lucha House Party were kicked out of ringside by the referee.  A babyface team getting kicked out instead of a heel team? Well, that's rare.  Cesaro won the match clear as glass with the neutr...
