WWE RAW 22/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

 Monday Night RAW was, like last night's Survivor Series PPV, pretty f'ing skippable.

The entire narrative of this episode revolves around Vince McMahon's egg which sounds so weird to say out of context. 

So, who stole that egg? Well, thanks to Sami Zayn's "sources", the person that took The Rock's golden egg (again, so odd to say it without context) from the Netflix film, Red Notice is Austin Theory and he got a WWE championship opportunity later in the episode. I do agree with Vince McMahon. No one likes a snitch. 

Looking at you, SEAN. ROSS. SAPP or any other wrestling journalist! 

Big E and Austin Theory did deliver a decent match and it ended with Big E retaining the championship due to the good old distraction finish from Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens arguing on the outside which sidelined Austin Theory. 

It led to a good old brawl between Seth and Big E while Kevin Owens somehow didn't get involved in all of that. Nothing to say other than meh.

Becky Lynch's "You People" Promo.  

The difference is that it was warranted given how the crowd was a little too much yesterday. As a whole, the promo was okay.  Lynch is going back to her portrayal as "I hate you a**holes" type of heel. 

Riddle vs Dolph Ziggler. 

An okay effort from these two guys. Riddal won with an RKO that looked like your friend's version of the move. 

Bianca Belair vs Tamina. 

A match that I couldn't care less about considering Belair's one-sided win over Tamina last week.

And that's exactly what happened this week other than an attack from Natalya and then Doudrop.  

Seth Rollins vs Finn Balor. 


The match didn't happen due to Seth's attack on the Irishman during Balor's entrance. This resulted in even more beating from "please don't say drip" Seth Rollins. 

The only thing I can add about the fan that ran towards Seth is that based on his physique, that dude ran so fast to Rollins, he got his cardio workout done. 

Also, Finn Balor feels like such an afterthought, it's honestly not surprising. 

The Street Profits vs AJ Styles And Omos. 


A solid tag team bout. The match ended via a DQ because of a fire extinguisher being sprayed on by Angela Dawkins to the team of AJ Styles And Omos. 

I guess they didn't want the smoke? (boooooooooooooooo!) 


These mofos are out here talking about "Veer coming soon" to RAW for months now. What is he? F**KING CYBERPUNK 2077!? The difference is that people were looking forward to that game. 


So, we got brand new tag team champions in Queen Zelina Vega and Carmella. That women's division is as worthless as Quibi. I got no emotion whatsoever after watching this. 

My man, Reginald lost the 24/7 championship to Cedric Alexander to which he lost to Dana Brooke. Cool. 

While Liv Morgan slapped the sh*t out of Becky Lynch. Stephanie McMahon would be proud. 

Bobby Lashley vs Rey And Dominik Mysterio. 

Aka the most predictable match since any Arsenal game circa a few months ago. 

Lashley wins with the hurt lock. 


And the final thing that happened on this episode of Monday Night Aight is a US championship match that saw its challenger, Sami Zayn, lose to Damian Priest. Now, what was the use of Apollo Crews in the segment before the match other than his promo? 

I don't know but either way, his heel run is disappointing and could've been a LOT better than the "foreign heel" persona. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: I guess Vince's line regarding snitches? 

Didn't like: The usual dullness of it all.

WWE Eyeing On New Creative Writers.

Last week on RAW, The McMahon family announced that there will be new faces and fresh match ups. What better way to invoke change than to seek out new writers with different ideas right?  WWE are actively seeking for new writer's assistant positions with at least two years in writing television and or/ production experience and preferably but not necessary, a degree in Film/TV/Drama, Media Studies, Journalism, Communications, English, or related field of study.  For everyone who thinks they can do it better, here's your opportunity. Merry Christmas! https://t.co/FJch1rOXCM — Jimmy Korderas (@jimmykorderas) December 24, 2018 What do I think of this? As long as Vince is in charge, unfortunately, nothing is going to change for the better of the product but that's just me.  Let me know in the comments on how you would change the WWE product and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks. 

WWE RAW 13/9/21 | A Coherent Review.

Ya boy took a week off of talking about wrestling which is something I usually need after watching a single episode of Monday Night RAW but consistency is key, people!  In recent weeks, however, Monday Night RAW doesn't feel like mental torture and the latest episode is no exception.  Images via WWE.com Big E Was Like, "I'm Definitely Cashing In My Contract".  The lovable wholesome gyrating big man name Big E interacted with Randy Orton as well as Bobby Lashley ahead of the WWE title match between Bob and Randal.  The reason is obvious. Big E wants to cash in seeing Becky Lynch's mother again (that's not it?).  All lame jokes aside, the big man did cash in the contract to become the NEW WWE champion later in the episode after a successful title defence from Bobby Lashley against Randy Orton.  Words cannot describe how f**king happy I am seeing one of my favourite performers finally capture the gold which was long overdue if you ask me.  I will go as far as to

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
