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.

Top 7 Best NXT Takeover Theme Songs.

Everbody likes to put on some good music. You like good music. Your friends and family like good music. However, what makes a song good is completely subjective but in my opinion, NXT are nailing it with their takeover theme songs and I'm ranking them on a glorified subjective form of content and that is list videos/articles or in my case a top seven list. Without further ado, Here are my top seven best NXT takeover theme songs.  7. Serpents by Neck Deep   The reason why I like this song so much is that   it gives me some early 2000s punk rock which by listening to this song, it feels like they're paying a homage to that era. overall a good listen that depending on how old you are will give a nostalgic feel like I did.  6. Ace Of Spades by  Motörhead Now, l like me some Motörhead. Triple H's current theme and the evolution theme song is some of my favourite theme music of all time and this is no exception. The only critique I have for this song ...

The 5 News Week Look-Back: Batista's Match With Triple H At Wrestlemania 35 Supposed To Be A Hell In A Cell!?, A Look Back At Eric Bischoff's Role As Executive Director.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 News Week where I usually report on the 5 major or minor news of the week but I'm not doing that here if you can't tell from the graphic I made (you're welcome, by the way).  But Rather, all throughout December, I'm going to look back at some of the news that came out in 2019. The start of a new decade is going to be upon us in the coming days and that can be exciting especially for the future of the wrestling business as a whole. I hope you guys celebrate the new year's day and of course, drink responsibly.  Fans Frustration Over The Booking Of The Main Roster Women's Division.  I wrote an article earlier this year about why women's wrestling in world wrestling entertainment of the year 2018 was great (which you can click here to read the whole thing).  However, it seems like the year after (2019) was the exact opposite. Now, they did rebound the quality of storytelling in the women's div...

Wrestling With Whiteness | A Documentary Sorely Needed.

Here's the thing. My 2 viewers will know that I've been a wrestling fan for 15 plus years but what they do not know is that I've been a Somali (aka a Black Muslim person) my entire life so talking about this documentary is going to be a little more personal, to say the least.  And look, I know this is the part where I insert my usual wit and fart jokes but you're not gonna see less of that because this is a serious topic (and you know it's serious when I mentioned my ethnicity) about representation and the shared struggle across every single black performer featured in this documentary.  From the press release, Wrestling With Whiteness "focuses on sharing the stories of Black folx and their experience in the wrestling community. Using a combination of interviews with Black wrestlers and Black content creators, Wrestling With Whiteness uncovers the unique experiences of Black people in the industry and the rise of representation for performers and fans around th...
