WWE Smackdown 10/12/21 | A Coherent Review.

Yet another meaningless episode of Smackdown. That’s it. That’s the intro. 

Images via WWE.com 

Brook Laser Beam Still Beats Up Arab Alan Moore. 


I'm just going to have my unfunny but insightful headlines describe wrestling segments huh (at the very least, I'm hoping this made Fightful's Jeremy Lambert proud)? 

All lame banter aside, this build for the universal championship is an eh so far. At least the segment featured hot nurses. 

Shinsuke Nakamura And Rick Boogs vs Los Lotharios. 

My man, Shinsuke Nakamura might as well be called the Intercontinental championship belt collector because he hasn't done jack with it. 

The title has been defended so little, Brock Lesnar would be jealous due to the fact that he's been aiming at the wrong championship the whole damn time! 

I was hoping for a Los Lotharios win but that didn't happen as Shinsuke pinned Humberto Carrillo after delivering the Kinshasa. 


King Xavier Woods has unveiled his new crown looking like he's wearing a piece of Goldar's gear or something. 

Brock and then later Drew McIntyre, showed their disdain towards Adam Pearce's authority. How so? Because you guys are jealous that he's HOT!? 

Sonya Deville Aka The Karen Tried To Once Again Screw Over Naomi Until…….. 


Xia Li made her first in-ring main roster appearance by aiding Naomi into taking out the mostly white trash. 

Xia looked pretty impressive here. Will see if that presence keeps on going for weeks or months to come (the answer is probably not). 


RKBRO meets the cast of Jackass: Forever. What a perfect word to call Matt Riddle. 

Toni Storm vs Charlotte Flair. 

Ah. The classic "WWE GM Mode/Universe Mode" booking in the sense that the rivalry has to have at least one TV match before the actual match at a PPV. 

Look, while this is better than shoving pies, the usual overcomplicated booking has soured me and it's a shame because I believe the idea of this feud is fantastic. 

However, it does make you wonder if Charlotte Flair was the person that threw the pie at Kevin Owens 5 years ago considering that she threw the pie first at Toni a few weeks back and the fact that she was on that episode of RAW. 

RKBRO vs The New Day vs The Usos. 


This match was a meaningless fun tag team match, Playas!

The New Day won the match by pinning the current holder of the blue tag belts, The Usos. 

Sheamus vs Drew McIntyre. 

Ridge Holland wasn't there for his new Irish bestie, Sheamus and all I can say is, Sheamus shouldn't have backstabbed Drew like that earlier this year. The unfortunate lack of distractions from the outside (sarcasm of course) gave Drew the opportunity to defeat Sheamus clean as glass. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: RKBRO vs The New Day vs The Usos, Xia Li’s debut. 

Didn’t like: The booking of the Toni Storm and Charlotte Flair match, another meaningless show.

WWE Smackdown 17/12/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another meh episode of Smackdown although the ending was pretty eye-opening.  Images via WWE.com   The Viking Raiders vs Jinder Mahal And Shanky.  After a backstage segment that included The Usos roasting Xavier Woods' kingship, the blue brand really started the show with a match (not this one) which is a rare thing to see on main roster television. And the match wasn't bad at all.  The Viking Raider defeated the team of Jinder and Shanky with a splash from Ivor. Does everyone want a Happy Corbin segment? Well, no and Drew McIntyre agrees as he took out Corbin and Madcap Moss to retrieve his sword which sounds like a bad King Arthur comedy flick or something.  Naomi Wants A Match With Sonya Deville.  Naomi is upset at how Sonya Deville acted like a Susan over the past few months so the glow queen challenged the actual manager to a match at Day 1 and Sonya was like, "Ahhhh, no".  Naomi then had a match with Shayna Baszler and within minute...

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Chris Jericho Offers Moxley To Join Inner Circle, The Go-Home Show Before Dec 18th.

I thought the middle act of AEW Dynamite suffered some pacing issues even though it was overall a much stronger show than last week's episode.  The latest episode of NXT, however, has built a solid foundation on what's to come on December 18th. The main question is, which show do I like better? The answer is AEW.  NXT  Highlights. Angel Garza vs Lio Rush For The NXT Cruiserweight Championship.  Was this match better than their first encounter? Like Snoop Dogg's verse in Sasha Banks' theme song, "Hell yea". Garza slams Rush hard on the ring apron by pushing the champ. Moments later, Garza delivers the Spanish Fly and Rush kicked out of that.  As Rush hits the frog splash, the champ wanted to pull him back in the middle of the ring but instead, he ripped off Garza's pants (nice attention to detail).  Angel then hits the wind clipper but Lio kicked out which led to a wind clipper submission and the man of the hour tapped out which m...

NXT Takeover Phoenix | My Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover was a great show with great wrestling, energetic crowd and intriguing storytelling (OMG, REALLY? I didn’t know that).  War Raiders vs The Undisputed Era (Kyle O’ Reilly and Roderick Strong) for the NXT Tag Team Championship.  First off, cool entrance by War Raiders. Secondly, the match was entertaining. At one point, Strong did a superplex to Hanson. The match ended with War Raiders delivered the Fallout to Kyle O ‘Reilly and won the match. War Raiders are the new NXT Tag Team Champions deservedly so.  Matt Riddle vs Kassius Ohno. During the match, Ohno hit Riddle right on his mouth which absolutely looked brutal. Minutes after that, Riddle hits Ohno with series of elbow strikes which made Ohno tap out and won the match. A very unique finish but nevertheless, this was a decent match.  Johnny Gargano vs Ricochet for the NXT North American Championship.  Those guys put on the absolute clinic of a wrestling match. But that ending ...
