WWE Smackdown 30/10/20 | A Coherent Review.

Happy Halloween and I, as usual, didn't dress up because why not, right? 

Now, how was Smackdown? It was pretty decent but this ain't a WWE show without one bad segment.

Roman Reigns Tells Jey Uso To Fall In Line. 

Jey Uso passionately told his cousin that he ain't falling in line for Roman Reigns. 

Reigns, however, calmly told Jey that all of the family is behind him and if he didn't join him then Jey is out of the family.  

Jey then shouts, "I hate you! Why you gotta do me like that, man?" 

Roman Reigns is so good playing a f'ing d**k especially when he didn't sympathize as to what Jey was going through in this scene. 

This segment was shorter than I expected to be honest. Nevertheless, I loved it. 

Kevin Owens vs Dolph Ziggler. Smackdown Survivor Series Team Qualifying Match. 

It's Survivor Series time which means it's red vs blue for "brand supremacy". 

Why does Survivor Series have to be about "brand supremacy"? They might as well bring back Bragging Rights. 

This "brand supremacy" stuff literally has no high stakes in them. 

Anywho, the match between Owens and Ziggler was aight. 

Kevin Owens qualified for the SmackDown's Survivor Series team with the stunner. 


In an exclusive interview with Corey Graves to Lars Sullivan, WWE somehow had to add the word "freak" because why not? 

I gotta be honest, I wasn't paying attention due to the fact that it was boring in my opinion. 

Bianca Belair vs Natalya vs Billie Kay. Winner Qualifies For The SmackDown Women's Survivor Series Team.  


Adam Pearce made this match up in a backstage segment where Bianca Belair, Natalya and Billie Kay where they were stating their reasons as to why they should be in the women's Survivor Series team. 

To the surprise of no one, Bianca Belair qualified for Survivor Series with the KOD.  

Carmella is getting a re-debut next week. I'm glad Carmella is back. 

I absolutely loved her as a bad guy so I'm hoping they bring back her heel persona. 

Murphy Tries To Apologize To The Mysterio Family. 


Murphy was out here wanting to apologize to Rey and Dominik Mysterio in front of them. 

Out came not Dominik or Rey Mysterio but rather Seth Rollins and he simply told Murphy that Rey and Dominik will never forgive Murphy. 

However, Rollins does accept Murphy and Aalyah for who they are. 

After Dominik attacked Seth Rollins from outta nowhere, Rey and Dominik decided to beat up Murphy but Aalyah stopped them from further beating the guy. 

BECCCCCAUSE, she loves him and gave Murphy a kiss. Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah. 

Aalyah's acting is laughably bad. Please end this storyline for God's sake? 

The Street Profits vs Cesaro And Shinsuke Nakamura. 

This match was fun, fun, fun. Street Profits wins with from the heavens to Nakamura. 


In a backstage promo, Sami Zayn said that he represents all continents because he is the Intercontinental champion while his Survivor Series opponent Bobby Lashley, represents one miserable country. 

Thank God he didn't bring up his history with Bobby Lashley. 

The only time I appreciate WWE's lack of continuity. 

Sasha Banks Puts The Past Behind Her. 

Until Bayley showed up to tell Banks that she can't keep a title to which she challenged Banks to a match for the blue belt and the boss accepted the challenge. 

Will see what happens in that championship match next week. Also, Sasha's outfit? GOR. GEOUS. 

Jey Uso vs Daniel Bryan. Smackdown Survivor Series Team Qualifying Match. 

Jey was aggressive throughout most of the match for obvious reasons. 

After Jey Uso defeated Daniel Bryan to qualify for the men's Survivor Series team, he decided to fall in line with Roman Reigns by beating up Daniel Bryan even more. 

If you told me that Jey Uso would turn heel a few weeks ago, I would dislike it. 

But, based on the context of the opening segment as well as the Hell In A Cell match, Jey's turn to the dark side fits the overall arc. Jey accepts his new situation and makes the best out of it. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: The opening segment, Street Profits vs Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura, the ending. 

Didn't like: Lars Sullivan interview, Aliyah/Seth Rollins/Mysterio Family/Murphy storyline.

WWE Smackdown 24/4/20 | A Coherent Review.

This week's Smackdown show was decent but it wasn't as strong as the previous weeks and *hits his head a few times* here's why.  The New Day Celebrates Their Title Victory. The show kicked off with the now 8th time WWE tag team champions, The New Day and like the title above, they were celebrating their big title win last week (No sh*t, Omar).  During the segment, Kofi mentioned that there's nothing wrong with pointing out that they have more title reigns than The Hart Foundation, Edge and Christian, Demolition, The New Age Outlaws etc because it's them being proud of their accomplishments.  Out came Lucha House Party, The Miz and John Morrison and they pretty much said that they deserve a title shot. The Forgotten Sons showed up to tell The New Day, Lucha House Party and every other tag team watching that they will never be forgotten.  They lived up to that statement as the Forgotten Sons destroyed Lucha House Party and The New Day.  ...

WWE RAW 28/12/20 | A Bit Late Coherent Review.

Before I start this review, I wanna say rest in peace to Jon Huber better known as the person behind the character of Luke Harper and Brodie Lee.  It was a tough, painful 3 days for the pro wrestling industry and I certainly felt that.  If there's one thing I've learned from the number of great stories being told by the people he has worked with is that Jon is a charming, funny and overall a fantastic human being that loves his family.  After reading the countless amount of fantastic tribute posts (including from the likes of Molly Belle of Wrestle Inn and Andrew Thompson of Post Wrestling ), that bit about Jon as a family man made me think of my current relationship with my father and the ways I'm trying to improve from my standpoint.  I know this is a cheese pizza saying but tell the people you cared about that you love 'em because that line might make their day.  So. Thank you, Jon Huber, for being the light that brightens everybody's darkness.  Now, Ho...

WWE Wrestlemania: Backlash 2021 | A Coherent Review.

Wrestlemania: Backlash or as I like to call it, Backlashimania, gets an enthusiastic thumbs up for me. I enjoyed the hell out of this PPV overall.  Images via WWE.com The opening intro was narrated by the greatest of all time, Batista and it was straight badass despite the fact it was pretty much a promotion for Zack Snyder's new film, Army Of The Dead.  If you've read my about page, then you'll know that I ain't talking about Zack Snyder movies because his fans are…… never mind.  Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka For The RAW Women's Championship.  Charlotte with the Cruella De Vil inspired ring gear was to quote Dolph Ziggler's old theme song, "perfection". The opening bout was fast-paced, high octane action that didn't have a slow/dull moment.  All of these women utilized quick grapples and strikes to their advantage.  Charlotte was this close to capturing the title but she was pushed to the outside, nailed the riptide to Asuka and that...
