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 11/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show makes me wanna go home if I was an attendance of this show. In other words, RAW wasn't good and here's why.  Opening Segment.  The show started off with The Authority. A stable that I actually don't mind but that a different topic. Anyways, they run down the Elimination Chamber PPV card. After that, The Man Becky Lynch came out and Triple H said that he will lift the suspension if Becky apologizes to both him and Stephanie.    Becky then told Stephanie to shut her face and she refused to apologize. The segment ended with Hunter giving her two choices. Either Becky apologizes to them or Becky's WrestleMania match is off.  Compared to the segments on RAW and Smackdown last week, this was underwhelming.  Sasha and Bayley vs Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan vs Nia Jax and Tamina. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.  The match was fine. During the match, Bayley delivered two stunners on the ...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism Vol.2

Last spring, I wrote an article about how to critique pro wrestling better aka "a guide on how to improve wrestling criticism" . I got some positive takes on it but the question is, why did I produce the second edition?  Well, you have to thank the awful videos and articles that I, unfortunately, consumed but at least, I wrote down some notes that contained the number of bad critiques that I was passionately blasted down on.  Like I mentioned in last year's piece, I am just an average fan that doesn't claim to be an expert in any form of criticism because YouTube will definitely give you the "I'm right, you're wrong" type of content.  This is just a learning process for not only the viewers reading this but myself as we all are trying to get better.  Without further explanation, let's guide you  to a better critique in wrestling (at least I hope so) numbra dos.  #1. Focusing Too Much On Logic (and no, I'm not talking abou...

AEW Full Gear 2020 | A Coherent Review.

While Full Gear was a big improvement compared to All Out, the pacing in their PPVs still needs a LOT of work.  I was yawning way too much in the 2nd hour even though I had a 9-hour sleep yesterday.   With a card like this, it doesn't need to be 4 hours.  Oh, and that Serena Deeb and Allysin Kay match on the pre-show was decent.  Kenny Omega vs Hangman Page. AEW World Championship Number One Contender's Tournament Finals.  Hangman Page doesn't have time to play "sportsmanship" as he's nailing Omega with some brutal elbow strikes throughout the first 10 or so minutes.  Speaking of brutal, Page delivered a devastating powerbomb on the stage ramp to Omega and then a sitout powerbomb in the ring to a near fall.  Unfortunately for Hangman, he was taken out with the one-winged angel from Kenny to win the entire tournament.  An enjoyable opener although it could've been just a tiny bit better but I'm nitpicking.  The elite brand will have an an...
