WWE RAW 11/10/21 | A Coherent Review.

In this week's episode of Monday Night RAW, the show decided to bring back the wildcard rule of some sort aka according to Louis Dangoor, nostalgia. 

It's not called as such but it sure does feel this way to me. 

Besides that, how did the red brand perform yesterday? 

Well, the show went right back to its old ways in that it sucks.

Big E Confronted Drew McIntyre Once Again. 


The current WWE champion as well as Drew McIntyre talked about the WWE championship until The Usos came out to hype up Roman Reigns and how he'll tear up Drew McIntyre once McIntyre moves to Smackdown. 

The segment led to a tag team match later in the night which saw some miscommunications (to say the least) between the WWE champion and its challenger because I have to see the "can they coexist" trope again. 

The match concluded with a count-out because of Drew and Big E beating each other up which led to The Usos ensuing chaos onto Drew McIntyre and Big E. 

After The Usos' problem was taken care of, Big E ate a claymore kick from out of nowhere. 

Now, look. I love me some beefy men slapping their meat in my professional wrestling so it isn't a shocker to my 3 viewers reading this that I'm looking forward to this match a ton. 

Xavier Woods vs Ricochet. King Of The Ring First Round Match. 


The gamer word agenda continues on Monday Nights as these two performers delivered one hell of a match. 

Woods advances in the tournament with an elbow drop that'll make Shawn Michaels proud. 

Mansoor And Mustafa Ali vs The Hurt Business' Shelton Benjamin And Cedric Alexander. 

After The Hurt Business defeated Mansoor and Mustafa Ali, Ali pushed Mansoor and immediately left the ring. 

I smell a match at a place that just bought Newcastle. 

I'm hoping if the match takes place, then they can reunite because one, I like the odd couple pairing and two, the main roster has fewer tag teams than Tyga actually releasing good music. 

Unfortunately, the reunion is definitely not going to happen as seen by a backstage scene in which a vicious beating took place thanks to Ali. 

Not a fan of this since the breakup was too soon to execute. 

Shayna Baszler vs Dana Brooke. Queen's Crown Tournament First Round. 


Honestly, if WWE is looking at building Shayna back up as an unstoppable submission machine once again, winning the entire tournament would be a great start. 

Unfortunately, I just can't see it happening but fingers crossed. Baszler advances in the semi-finals thanks to a knee strike on Dana Brooke. 

Omos vs Riddle. 

Before the match, Riddle revealed that he pitched the idea of this match due to how inspired he was after seeing his Pedro Pascal looking friend, Randy Orton, challenge Omos a few weeks back. 

Yes, because that promo was so inspiring from a guy that looks like if Ted (from Bill and Ted) had blond hair with an MMA background. 

Obviously, Omos defeated the guy with ease so nothing surprising here. But, at least Randal gave AJ an RKO once again, right? 


Minutes after that, Bobby Lashley was roasting Goldberg (I mean, who hasn't roasted the guy after seeing his match with The Undertaker) and proceeded to challenge the old man in a no holds barred match. Cool. 

Jeff Hardy vs Austin Theory. 

Do I want to see this match again? No. A 24/7 championship shenanigans happened that distracted Jeff Hardy and because of it, lost the match to Austin Theory with a roll-up. 

Where's Willow when you need him? 

Jinder Mahal vs Kofi Kingston. King Of The Ring First Round. 


Would've loved to see Kofi Kingston face Xavier Woods as the final round match of the tournament but since they were in the same bracket, that was clear as day the match wouldn't happen, unfortunately. 

Oh, and Jinder Mahal won the match and will face the aforementioned Xavier Woods. 

I have a bad feeling about this because they're probably going to Hinder the Jinder on Woods and go on to win the whole damn time. Fingers crossed that I'm wrong. 

Bianca Belair And Sasha Banks vs Becky Lynch And Charlotte Flair. 


The match hasn't begun because of, you guessed it, miscommunications between all parties. 

If there's one thing I've learned from 2021 is that the team of Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks has clearly worked! 

This entire segment should have not happened. 

The backstage promos between Becky, Bianca and Sasha were a better fit to build the triple threat match championship match than whatever the hell that was. 

Natalya vs Doudrop. Queen's Crown Tournament First Round. 

Doudrop wins here and advances in the semi-finals. Cool. 

John Morrison tapped into his chi in order to share his innermost thoughts with the world. However, one-half of the tag team champions, Rhea Ripley was confused with what Morrison just said. 

If meditating is John Morrison's serious side then whatever I guess. If you're a white woman, being serious with your meditation makes sense. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Xavier Woods vs Ricochet. 

Didn't like: Mansoor and Mustafa Ali team breakup, the mess of a segment that was the brawl between Bianca, Sasha, Charlotte and Becky, please God don't have Jinder Mahal win the entire tournament.

WWE Smackdown 14/2/20 | My Coherent Review.

Last night was my 2nd anniversary of pumping out written content on this site and I thought since this show has delivered 6 or sometimes 3 out of 10s for 4 months now, I've written some lyrics about my thoughts on Smackdown in the style of the current song opening for the blue brand.  If you wanna put the instrumental version of ACDC's Are You Ready while reading this then that's cool too.  *Cue the intro* Are you Ready?  Are you ready for mediocrity! Then, get ready for disappointment.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.   Even Bischoff.  Are you ready for mediocrity! *ends with some guitar solos*.  The lyrics may suck but it is at least better than whatever the hell Justin Bieber meant when he sang his current single "Yummy".  Now, on with the review. The Return Of A Moment Of Bliss (Unlike The Return Of The Dirt Sheets, Nobody Really Cares).  Both Bliss...

The 5 News Week: An NXT Segment Getting Some Backstage Praise!?

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.  some pictures via WWE.com Stephanie McMahon One Of The Best Heels In The Attitude Era? Jim Ross Thinks So.  Jimmy Ross recently talked about the role Stephanie McMahon and whether she was "one of the best heels we had in the attitude era" (from sescoops ):  “I always believe she was one of the best heels that we had in the Attitude Era. Because she took so much after her dad.” Stephanie played as the spoiled rich daughter of an a*h*ole boss and that is a dish of easy heel heat.  Stephanie McMahon's spoiled brat type of heel moulded well with a vicious, opportunist of a bad guy that Triple H portrayed as during the era of the McMahon/Hemsley faction.  Without her constant presence on TV, A piece of Triple H's persona especially in the year 2000, would b...

Priscilla Kelly Used A Tampon In A Wrestling Match: Right Or Wrong?

    If you have been away from social media for the past day or so, a wrestler by the name of Priscilla Kelly (who by the way, recently competed in the second Mae Young Classic tournament) competed in a match in which she pulled out her tampon and put it on her rival's mouth. That struck the wrestling world on Twitter with differences of opinions. She did respond to this on Twitter and here's what she had to say: Hey guys. Ya know, it's all fake. 21+ show with a bar. Can't take life so serious all the time. Call me what you will... 🌹 — The Priscilla Kelly (@priscillakelly_) January 5, 2019 What do I think of this? I don't understand why this became as viral as it is considering that we've seen hardcore, brutal, disgusting stuff in a wrestling match before. However, it did get an "ugh" reaction out of me.  Was it right or wrong that she did this? My answer is none considering that wrestling is subjective and there's no such thing ...
