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.

The 5 News Week: WWE Ditching Full Script Promos? NXT Superstars Still Expected To Move To The Main Roster?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  NXT Superstars Still Expected To Move To The Main Roster? Although the yellow brand is much better in terms of how they approach storylines subjectively speaking, of course, it is still a developmental brand after all even though it doesn't feel like so.  I'm sure you guys have heard of reports (more specifically from post wrestling ) that a draft is coming next month and the NXT Superstars will still be called on either RAW or Smackdown hence not being treated as a third equal brand.  That is all coming from Dave Meltzer and The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. I really enjoyed when the main roster guys like Tyson Kidd in 2014, Brezzago, Apollo Crews for a bit move to NXT and those moves makes that brand more legit but I and you guys should keep i...

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...

The 5 News Week: WWE Backstage. Cancelled Or Nah?, Liv Morgan's Re-Debut Was Supposed To Be Different!?

I'm back on my BS because it's The 5 News Week where I report on the 5 major or minor news of the week hence the name "T he 5 News Week".  Sorry for the week of absence. I took a week off of social media (except YouTube) due to the sadness I felt when reading those brave women and men tell their stories about the awful, terrible experiences they've had after their interactions with notable people in the industry.  It made me question my fandom and whether I should be in the industry (wrestling media-wise) knowing that they are asshats that will take an advantage on people for no reason other than more power and control.  This week proves that the business needs to wash all the old tropes that make it harder for people to express what's really going on especially when it pertains  to serious issues like sexual assault, racism, sexism etc.  I'm hoping that those stories will lead to a sudden change in every aspect of this profession and other ...
