WWE Smackdown 25/6/21 | A Coherent Review.

 If you love rematches and storyline continuations that should've had a decisive conclusion, then this episode is for you! 

This show, to put it lightly, wasn't good. As a matter of opinion, the program was so darn awful.

Bayley And Seth Rollins vs Bianca Belair And Cesaro. 

They essentially had words to fill about "who's the winner and who's the loser" in an open segment before the match took place. 

I find it really head-scratching that Bayley called the SmackDown women's champion, "Bianca Beloser" even though Bayley lost to Belair in a "clean as glass" type of finish. 

I will say this, Seth Rollins laughing in the background every time Bayley said something about Belair is pure gold. Probably it's best to keep Rollins as a heel just for that laugh alone. 

The match ended with a pinfall victory from Bayley to the SmackDown's women's champion and you know what that means? REMATCH! 

I do not hate rematches as long as each match is better than the last and their Hell In A Cell match was kinda mid. 

So, why would I look forward to that encounter once more? 

Shinsuke Nakamura Got A King Coloration. 

This entire segment, I feel like,  is unironically the saddest yet funniest thing I've ever seen all week. 

Baron was crying his a** off like he just watched the film "Life Is Beautiful" with Roberto Benigni. 

This should've someway somehow led to a King Of The Ring tournament but it is what it is. 

Apollo Crews vs Big E. Money In The Bank Qualifying Match. 

A match that was way better than their IC title match at Wrestlemania a few months back. 

The "let's portray Apollo Crews as a weak champion" did not pay off as Big E pulled off the victory with the big ending. 

Is it really that difficult to actually book a match with Apollo Crews that involves a victory without outside interference? 

The writing for Apollo Crews since his IC title victory has been nothing but basura, my Gs. 

Carmella vs Liv Morgan. 

Carmella was given the Money In The Bank ladder match spot even though other competitors have to compete to qualify for that match (and also recently lost a match with Liv Morgan). 

Now, let me ask you something, people. Does this actually make a lick of sense? 

Morgan picked up the victory against Carmella once again. Again, I ask you lovely yet complicated human beings. 

Does the direction for this entire segment and match, make a lick of sense to you? 

Jimmy Uso defeated Dolph Ziggler. Cool. Speaking of Uso sort of, Edge returned and gave an absolute BEATING to Roman Reigns (as well as Jimmy Uso). 

Out of all the revisiting of feuds, the Edge and Roman Reigns is the one that I'm slightly intrigued by because we haven't seen the eventual one on one match between those two guys. 

However, I would be lying if I said that I'm all on board with this rivalry, ya know? 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: I guess Baron Corbin crying over a crown? 

Didn't like: The booking for Apollo Crews, the Bayley and Bianca Belair aspect of the opening segment, the entire Carmella and Liv Morgan stuff.

NXT Takeover: 30 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeovers have delivered greatly throughout the "30 years" of Takeover shows.  This one, in my opinion, wasn't it. For a Takeover program, this was disappointing.  All of the Takeovers are A's or B's and Takeover 30 was a C at best.  At least, I like the stage production set.  pictures via WWE.com PRESHOW: Breezango vs Legado De La Fantasma vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch. Winner Faces Imperium For The NXT Tag Team Championship.  It was a fine match. Joaquin Wilde's ring gear was really cool even though it took a bit out of the seriousness from the Legado De La Fantasma stable. I'm just nitpicking though.  Breezango actually won the match and will go on to face Imperium for the tag belts.  MAIN SHOW: Finn Balor vs Timothy Thatcher.  Timothy Thatcher started off this match with a series of punches which he then later transitioned into various submission moves.  Pretty much, Finn has no choice but to adapt to...

WWE RAW 28/2/22 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another episode of Monday Night RAW aka a 2 hour podcast for an angry bearded white guy.  Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins spoke with Alpha Academy and………..  It led to a stunner from Kevin Owens to Chad Gable  I can't criticize the way Gable says thank you because after all, he's a chad.  The segment followed with a decent tag team match between two former rivals and the Academics.  And like their dating life, the Alphas took an L here.  This is the part where I would be mad at the tag champs getting pinned but those titles, as well as the entire tag division, are so meaningless, I don't have the energy to do so.  T-Bar vs Omos.  T-Bar lost a match and Omos can't wrestle for sh*ts. In other news, the colour of blood is red.  Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley And Liv Morgan vs Becky Lynch, Doudrop And Nikki A.S.H.  Bianca once again proves that she owns all of the EST by leading her team to victory with the KOD on Nikki Ash Ketchum....

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...
