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.

WWE RAW 28/12/20 | A Bit Late Coherent Review.

Before I start this review, I wanna say rest in peace to Jon Huber better known as the person behind the character of Luke Harper and Brodie Lee.  It was a tough, painful 3 days for the pro wrestling industry and I certainly felt that.  If there's one thing I've learned from the number of great stories being told by the people he has worked with is that Jon is a charming, funny and overall a fantastic human being that loves his family.  After reading the countless amount of fantastic tribute posts (including from the likes of Molly Belle of Wrestle Inn and Andrew Thompson of Post Wrestling ), that bit about Jon as a family man made me think of my current relationship with my father and the ways I'm trying to improve from my standpoint.  I know this is a cheese pizza saying but tell the people you cared about that you love 'em because that line might make their day.  So. Thank you, Jon Huber, for being the light that brightens everybody's darkness.  Now, Ho...

THE Coherent AEW Take: YOU KNOW IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BOOM!

 I was about to talk about this week's AEW line of shows, were as mid as any Flo Rida song but then…………..YOU KNOW IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BOOM!  The Elite brand's flagship show literally made the save like the "babyface shows up to rescue their partner from a brawl" cliche.  Rampage.    Highlights.  Well, there is none as this week's show was pretty darn skippable. It was "multi-person matches with babyfaces making the save post-match".  Some Other Things That Happened.  Dan Lambert continues to be as annoying as an anti-smark on Reddit - This is the only time where I'm cheering for the white saviour, Cody Rhodes. Oh, and Sammy Guevara made the save for Rhodes against Lambert and his lackeys. The Elite guys lost to Orange Cassidy, Best Friends And Rocky Romero - That brainbuster into a double superkick from Cole and the Young Bucks was cool.  Tay Conti defeated Penelope Ford - Could've lasted a tiny bit longer but it was a decent encounter....

WWE Smackdown Live 30/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown Live yesterday was a skippable show other than the opening segment and match in my opinion. Now usually on my RAW/Smackdown Live review, I break down what's good, what's ok and what's bad. For the first time, I'm only gonna tell you what's ok given that this show was again a skippable show and here we go.  WHAT'S OK The opening segment  This is the probably one of if not most noteworthy moment this week mainly because as you might know, there were reports going around that John Cena and Daniel Bryan were out of Crown Jewel and the reports are indeed true and it makes sense, especially for John Cena considering that he's an actor now and he needs to maintain his PR status. The segment itself was decent. Loved both guys' intensity and that segment leads to a WWE championship match and speaking of which............. Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles  Decent match. Expected a better from these two but again, decent nevertheless but...
