Top 5 BEST THINGS About Monday Night RAW In 2021.

 "Monday Night RAW sucked this year," says someone with actual taste in anything really. 2021 may be the year of CM Punk's return to in-ring action but the red brand has some of those like………………………… Eva Marie anyone?

With that being said. Let's get into the good so here are the top 5 BEST things about Monday Night RAW In 2021.

Watching Podcasts Starring A White Dude That Rants. 

I love when a white dude takes a piece of entertainment way too seriously. It just proves that they love this business. 

So much in fact, that they would make sexist and racist comments towards performers that had nothing to do with the creative process. I also love how they call fellow pundits a shill for their opinions. 

The word "subjective" got nothing on the folks that routinely talk about how they've been a fan for longer than your dad's jacket I guess. They also love comparing WWE to AEW which makes sense considering the full abbreviation of AEW is All Elite Whites. 

Distraction Finishes. 

Every once in a while, we get the poison Ivy esque distraction. However, NOTHING comes close to the power of the distraction finish. 

The distraction finish is so powerful, in fact, it's probably the most protective move in professional wrestling right behind the roll-up. 

You gotta give that trope some credit. They did help create a great podcast called "The Distraction" where their skits make WWE's segments look like the Star Wars Christmas special. 

"Can They Co-Exist" Trope? 

Speaking of the most innovative storytelling device in the history of this industry because it has to be when it is used many, many times. 

It's like telling the story of you and your money hoarding, "hardworking" and "risk-taking" boss with this description. The outcome answers the question with a "fuck no". 

I know this section is extremely short but so is the ending to the "can they coexist" storyline. 

Rematches. 

Matches that you've seen a ton are the wrestling's equivalent of reruns but a lot better, CLEARLY! 

Why? Because it's a great way to script a series you just wrote minutes into the show. 

Rematches on RAW are like The Marine movies. They weren't good the first time so you might as well create a never-ending narrative. 

They could call their rematches as a "best of 7" or "best of 10" but that would've made too much sense. 

The Storylines Always Play It Out. 

The "let it play out" advice is the greatest advice of all time right below the "calm down" advice. You don't believe me? Just ask the Randy Orton and the Bray Wyatt storyline. 

It's the best thing to tell fans after watching a show with no clear direction. 

When Karrion Kross took a fat L on his Monday Night RAW debut, that was the best time to tell yourself "let it play out" and it did because, for the next several weeks, he came out (without Scarlett Bourdeaux by his side) looking like he has a fetish for torture. 

Nothing screams the sentence "I'm cucked" more than this scenario. 

To sum it up, "let it play out" is great advice for people with a patience level of 9000! 


(WARNING: This is a sarcastic piece so don’t get mad over oily people action). 

Thank you so much for reading this and if you like it, please share it around and let me know what are some of your favourite RAW moments of 2021 Anyways, stay safe smarks and have a happy new year.

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...

Escape The Undertaker | A Short Coherent Review.

The internet. The only place where your YouTube recommended is filled with "I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT'S PG".  It is also home to Netflix which released an interactive movie produced by future Raspberry award-winning movie studio, WWE films. Look, the idea of 3 black dudes being trapped inside a house by a white conservative dead hog, is offensive and by that description alone, you weren't sure for a sec whether you were watching Netflix or the Daily Wire.  Luckily, there wasn't a cameo from Tessa Blanchard so you should be fine.  As a fan of Mass Effect 2, I love some dialogue trees that alter the events of a movie/game.  And, from a functionality standpoint, it is a technical marvel how it gives the audience the illusion of choice (you know, like our current economic system).  I say "illusion" because therein lies the main problem I have with the film. Your choices don't matter here. Even in a WWE movie, they're still trying to avoid the fan...

WWE Smackdown Live 11/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall a good show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.  WHAT'S GOOD Jeff Hardy vs Shinsuke Nakamura The promo before this was okay however that was a goooood match. Better than their in counter at SummerSlam. Jeff was about to beat Nakamura, however, randy outta nowhere pushes hardy on the outside hence Nakamura retains the championship and Jeff wins via DQ. They had a brawl that was better than the brawl last night on RAW I'll tell you that much.  Samoa Joe telling a bedtime story in a good not boring way.   I thought from the editing to the design of the book to the way Samoa Joe express the story was fantastic. The thing I LOVE about this is that it's a outside in the box type of promo package that worked. Man, I can't wait for this match. On Sunday night when the PPV airs, I think I'm gonna call my local "WENDYYYS" (My goodness that was awfu...
