WWE Smackdown 26/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

This episode of Smackdown is a great example of the words, "unnoteworthy" and "skip that sh*t" because damn, nothing actually happened here.

Roman Was Like, "Rumours Give Losers False Hope". 


That statement above didn't make it clear whether it's about his next challenger or the fact that he's talking sh*t about the folks that wanted all three spidermen in the upcoming No Way Home movie. 

A pretty minimal opening segment that wasn't too noteworthy but it did solidify the effectiveness of Roman's words. 

Drew McIntyre And Jeff Hardy vs Happy Corbin And Madcap Moss. 

Speaking of things that aren't noteworthy. The good guys won. Cool. 

Ridge Holland vs Cesaro. 

Nothing screams WWE writing than some good old fashioned 50/50 booking. I will say, those two guys so far, have pretty good chemistry as seen by a good bout. Cesaro won with a roll-up (aka the most protective move in all of professional wrestling). 

Rick Boogs vs Angel In A Thanksgiving Leftovers Throwdown.


Angel as in Angel Garza not Angelus from Buffy the vampire slayer you creeps! 

When a match includes wrestlers throwing food around, you know it's a sh*t break match. 

Angel wins (unless you're one of the angels falling down at the end of season 8 of Supernatural) with the wind clipper. 


Say what you want about how Xia Li is going to be utilized within several months, those comic book vignettes are very much well-produced. 


Toni got a pie right on the face by Charlotte Flair. I mean, ewwh!? 

Sasha Banks And Naomi vs Natalya And Shayna Baszler. 

A team BAD reunion of sorts and they won the match thanks to a sunset flip to Natalya. 

I got some words for you, Sonya. Black women are beautiful but let me refocus. Black women are beautiful. 


Paul E Dangerously is still shaking whenever Kalya Braxton asks the guy regarding Brock Lesnar's status. Just breathe in and out, Pauly and maybe just maybe, Roman might find out about what's going on with you and my man brick lennor.  Oh, and Brock's suspension was lifted and will be on the blue-white ring stripes show next week.  Crap.

A Black Friday Invitational To Determine The Next Challenger For The Universal Championship. 


Just like what happens on an actual black Friday, people are fighting for the opportunity to get what they want. 

In this case, it's for a universal championship while regular people will brawl over Vizio TVs or something. 

And the outcome is the least you expected because Sami Zayn won the whole thing to become the number one contender for the universal championship. 

Don't know how to feel about this other than nice!? 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Cesaro vs Ridge Holland 

Didn't like: The 50/50 booking of Cesaro vs Ridge Holland, an overall skippable episode.

WWE RAW 9/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

 Yes, I didn't review Wrestlemania Backlash because one, I knocked out after a long day and two, why not? I did watch the show and it's like an episode of a Telltale game in that it's short and sweet.  How was the red brand this week?  Even though Wrestlemania Backlash is over, it still feels like I'm watching a build toward that show. It's like eating yesterday's leftovers with some fresh salad on the side, ya know. I'm hoping Hell In A Cell concludes everything.  The Street Profits vs RKBRO For The RAW Tag Team Championship.  Hey, look. A good tag team match, playas! Yes, they've fought each other more times than Call Of Duty sequels but like I said, I enjoyed it. RKBRO retained the championship with an RKO from Riddle to Montez Ford.  Rhea Ripley Is Now An Evil Goth Girl.  She said, "f**k them, kids". Also, why's Edge rocking the "I believe in white genocide" look? Ripley had a match with Liv Morgan and of course, she won the w...

WWE Smackdown Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

  It is the season premiere of Friday night Smackdown even though WWE doesn't have an offseason.  Nevertheless, it was a decent program and had a WAY better ending than whatever the hell of an ending last year's premiere of Friday night Smackdown showed.  There isn't a women's match this week and all of the AEW fanboys are looking at this like, "sEe, WWE dOeSn't feATuRe wOmeN'S mAtChEs aLsO."  pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Smackdown 2020.  The show started off with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon highlighting the scheduled matches for Smackdown as well as the superstars.  Chaos then ensued thanks to a huge brawl. Then, the "super freak" Lars Sullivan came out and delivered the freak accident to Shorty G.  Somehow, Jeff Hardy attacked him and that led to the opening match of the night between Lars and Jeff.  You know, I'm kind of surprised that two white people in McMahon and Hemsley knew who Rick James is.  Maybe I'm igno...

AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter. Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston.  Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway.  A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking.  What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa.  Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down.  It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac. I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out?  Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of ...
