WWE Smackdown 15/10/21 | A Coherent Review

Smackdown was probably the only time in current WWE TV that I didn't feel the time slot.

Keep in mind, I live outside of the US and I was watching this IN THE FREAKING MORNING.

Oh, and the show was a solid program.

Backstage, Sethy Enjoyed Edge's Promo Until……….

Edge mentioned his wife and I thought the promo was going in the "wide eyes open" direction but instead, he basically said that he'll end the saga of himself and Seth inside Hell In A Cell.

It was a decent promo but isn't noteworthy.

Rollins' entire dialogue later in the night? Well, that's a different story. Seth is just so good at playing a goofy pick, it's pure comedy at this point.

I mean, if his "101 dalmatians" look doesn't convince you of his comical ways, I don't know what is.

Finn Balor vs Sami Zayn. King Of The Ring Tournament Semi-Finals.

Other than the Xavier Woods and Ricochet encounter, this tournament has been nothing but a quick snooze fest, honestly.

I love both guys but damn, this match was not for me. Finn advanced in the finals with the coup de grace.

Naomi vs Sonya Deville And Shayna Baszler.

Sonya played as a POS so well here and it did a great job of building some empathy and compassion towards Naomi and her current struggles within the WWE Kayfabe universe as seen by her unfortunate loss to Naomi.

Yes, the match length is too damn short (a common pattern in the women's division, unfortunately) but in this instance, the circumstances made sense here.

Carmella vs Zelina Vega. Queen's Crown Tournament Semi-Finals.

Speaking of a "quick snooze fest" tournament. Zelina Vega is now in the finals. Cool.

Happy Corbin Wasn't Happy After Shinsuke Nakamura And Rick Boogs Interrupted His 'Happy Talk'.

Happy Corbin's fit looks like a pastey Floridian. Now, was my comment funny? Maybe but my lame jokes should tell you that I didn't care about this entire segment.

The Street Profits vs The Usos For The SmackDown Tag Team Championship In A Street Fight.

Finally, some good f**king wrestling. The Usos retained the tag team championship with a double frog splash to Angelo Dawkins.

To be frank with you guys, I wouldn't hate a rematch later down the line but this is probably the end of their series of televised matches.

Sasha Banks vs Becky Lynch.

I love Sasha Banks but what was that wrestling fit? It is as confusing as her Covid takes.

Nevertheless, the match was really good which isn't surprising considering how well they know each other. Their chemistry translated pretty well inside the squared circle.

Belair's intentional assist led to a victory from Sasha Banks.

Brocky Brock And His Saucest Supreme, Made Roman Mad Again.

The entire contract segment was Heyman sh*tting his pants in fear while Brock was like, "I read the contract thanks to my advocate, Paul Heyman".

I don't know who's sillier, this Brock Lesnar or the Lesnar that danced with a mariachi band 17 years ago.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.

Like: Silly Brick lasersword, Sasha Banks vs Becky Lynch, Street Profits vs The Usos, "101 dalmatians' ' Seth Rollins.

Didn't like: The King Of The Ring and Queens Crown Tournament.

WWE Smackdown 21/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another time Pat McAfee shows me why he's better than Corey Graves. Both in the ring AND on the commentary table. As far as how I feel about this week's episode, it ain't good, people. It ain't good. An Image via WWE.com Sethy Mane Wanted A Tag Partner So….………. That he faces The Usos later in the show and if drippy Jesus wins, 2 out of 3 members of the Bloodline are barred off ringside in the blue title encounter (in case you were wondering, Kevin Owens was Seth's tag partner). BUTTTTTTTTTTTT! The tribal chief had other ideas. He proposed a pitch where if the "burn it down" man loses the tag match, the Rumble match is gone, FINITO! Bully Ray probably saw Seth Rollins' uttering Jox Moxley's name and reacted, "HOW DARE YOU!! BLASPHEMY!" Fortunately for SR The Drip Mane, he got what he wanted via a DQ finish thanks to a superman punch from Roman Reigns. While the ending did protect the tag champs, the consequences of i...

A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess? Smackdown. The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k. The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself. As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title. Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship. Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on V...

WWE Smackdown 17/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

This recent instalment of Smackdown was decent. The women, for the most part, was the standout in this program and it honestly carried the show from a meh to a decent watch. The show started off with Jeff Hardy and Sheamus talking about the upcoming bar fight which you can scroll down to read my thoughts on it. Sasha Banks and Bayley Gives Us A New Perspective Of The Word "Greatness". The so-called "golden role models" were praising their greatness to which Nikki Cross was furious about the way she lost at Extreme Rules. So, Nikki wanted a rematch for the SmackDown women's championship and Bayley accepted that bout if Nikki faces her best friend, Alexa Bliss to determine the number one contender. That match started immediately after this segment and it was a good opener. Bayley and Sasha Banks were entertaining in the commentary as per usual. When Corey Graves brought the fact that Bayley didn't want t...
