WWE RAW 16/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

The reign of good Monday Night RAWs has kinda come to an end? 

While it wasn't the most offensive thing I've seen since Randy Orton vomiting out badly burned hot choco, I thought this week's RAW was just there. Nothing really of substance happened here.

Kevin Owens Explains His Reasoning For Beating Up Big E. 

After Kevin Owens basically said that he's tired of being humble and lowkey, Big E took a beating from The Usos and Riddle came to the big man's rescue which led to a tag team match because that's what you do after seeing multiple people fighting apparently. 

During the tag team match, shenanigans happened with Big E and Sethy Rollings and Randal Keith showed up to help his tag team partner, Riddle which led to a 6 man tag team match because apparently somebody asked for a sequel? 


Finally, after several and several minutes of stretching something that should've lasted 15 minutes at the very least, we got a clean victory from the heel team with a roll-up from Rollins to Riddle. 

After the match, Riddle got caught in a 2 on 1 beating from the current Smackdown tag team champions but Big E prevented that and gave the big ending to not only this (metaphorically speaking) the closest thing to a segment stretching out like an elastic but to Jey Uso. 

Why did this entire thing last for half an hour? I don't know but either way, it was too long. In other words, don't give Tony Khan ideas because he might extend his segments to half an hour or more. 

Bianca Belair vs Tamina. 

Man, WWE legit cooled Bianca Belair's steam and it sucks she's in that position right now when in theory, she should be on top at all times. 

After Belair's win over Tamina, Doudrop hinted at a match with the EST. I mean, it should be a good match, to be honest. 

Becky Lynch Goes Over Her History With Charlotte Flair Until……….


Liv Morgan showed up to tell Becky that she'll take the red white belt from her. 

Out of all the matches taking place at Survivor Series, Becky's encounter with Charlotte is the only one that is interesting considering the major history between them and Lynch's promo did a good job of putting a little tiny bit of stakes. 

Riddle wanted the smoke with The Street Profits. Get it? Weed? Riddle? Smoke? Not gonna lie, that joke would've been funnier had Seth Rogen said it. 

The Street Profits vs Alpha Academy. 

A decent tag team exhibition. The team of Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford won here. Aight. 

Nikki A.S.H vs Queen Zelina Vega. 


Zelina Vega's okay British accent was enough to win the match against a Scottish person which is a visual metaphor of how the Scotland independence is going on (YOU SAID NO POLITICS, OMAR!)

All lame outdated jokes aside, this match was followed by their partners facing each other in Rhea Ripley and Carmella. And Ripley wins with the riptide. Cool. 

Kevin Owens vs Finn Balor. 

A solid but quick bout. Owens defeated Balor with the stunner. 

Since Owens' a heel now, I think the pop-up powerbomb should make its return as his finisher since the stunner is the most babyface move ever. 

AJ Styles And Omos vs Dolph Ziggler And Robert Roode. 

Two heels facing each other? SKIP! For real though, this ain't that bad. Styles and Omos win with a phenomenal forearm to Ziggler. 

Rey Mysterio vs Bobby Lashley. 


My man, Bob picked up the victory here and Adam Pearce was like, "uh, Rey since you lost the match, I'm going to replace you with Austin Theory even though I wanted an all former WWE champions team". 

God damn, like Sonya Deville, Adam Pearce does not like POCs succeeding AT ALL! 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Becky Lynch promo. 

Didn't like: Adam Pearce just contradicted himself, the opening act was a little too much booking wise.

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
