WWE RAW 3/1/22 | A Coherent Review

 It's the first RAW review of 2022 and my 4th year continuing the war in professional wrestling bullsh*t which also kicked off my sad and miserable adulthood. 

With that being said, this week's episode was not terrible. 

Brocky Brock Reunited With His Well-suited Funky Bunch. 

The best part? Lesnar wanted us to acknowledge his Viking roots with his beard and hair.  

Paul Heyman went over the challengers for the fatal 4 way number one contender's match (aka the OG OG OG match at last night's day 1 show) in the most Paul Heyman way possible in that he praises you then proceeds to sh*t talk about you kinda like Tony Khan. 

Later that night, Bob Lashley was crowned as the winner thanks to the almighty spear.

While I would've preferred a Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar match to happen at Wrestlemania, I don't mind seeing it a few months before just because it's been a dream match of mine throughout most of my wrestling fandom. 

Paul Heyman's promos are legit a masterclass in improvisational dialogue and his latest promo is no exception. 

Oh, and I like babyface Brock. It's like old Brock but without the mariachi band. 

RKBRO vs Alpha Academy. 

This ain't Monday Night RAW without a rematch. A rematch I do not mind, I guess? 

Alpha Academy pinned the tag champs which means a title match because that's how you build your number one contender. 

Reggie And Dana Brooke vs Akira Tozawa And Tamina. 

That flip pin from Reggie was cool but that's all I can say about this. The champion and the former sommelier wins here. 

Becky Lynch Encounters Two Of Her Former Challengers. 

Bianca Belair and Liv Morgan wanted a title opportunity which led to a brawl between all 3 women that ended with Becky Lynch standing tall. 

Not a fan of Morgan's theme change but I am a fan of a possible triple threat match between all 3 competitors. 

And I spoke too soon because Doudrop demanded a RAW women's championship opportunity so the white man, Adam Pearce and his Karen, Sonya Deville made a 3-way match to determine the number one contender for the red women's belt at the Royal Rumble. 

Now that sounds like a banger of an encounter. 

Rhea Ripley And Nikki A.S.H vs Carmella And Queen Zelina Vega. 

Speaking of Monday Night RAW and their rematches. The heels retained the championship. Cool. 


As announced days ago, Johnny Knoxville is going to be in the Royal Rumble. Ah, WHO!? 

Damian Priest vs Dolph Ziggler For The United States Championship. 

Here's a guy I haven't seen in quite some time, Damian Priest. This bout was decent with an ending that we all saw coming because let's face it, Dolph Ziggler continues to be portrayed as the "Halo grunt" of WWE in that he's easily beatable. 

A Mixed Tag Team Match Announced Between Edge, Beth Phoenix, The Miz And Maryse. 

Ah. Nice. I'm so excited about this (sarcasm of course). 

AJ Styles vs Omos. 

A one-sided match because Omos' big and strong. You know who's also big and strong. Giant Gonzalez and guess what? he f**king sucks. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: The opening segment, the fatal 4-way match

Didn't like: I guess the announcement of the Edge and Beth Phoenix vs The Miz And Maryse.

WWE Survivor Series 2018 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans reading this and welcome to my coherent review for Survivor Series 2018. Overall, it was a very entertaining show throughout with some minor issues and here's why.  (KICK OFF SHOW) Tag team Survivor Series match  This match was a great example of a skippable match until the last moments.  Xavier Woods did the springboard elbow drop and both members of The Revival countered that into a shatter machine which look amazing.  Minutes later, Scott Dawson hit a superplex to Jimmy Uso and an immediate frog splash from Dash Wilder to a near fall.  After that, Both Usos hit a superkick to Dash followed by a Uso splash and just like that, the Smackdown team took the W which WWE wants to forget about that (so stupid). A decent match but with a boring start in my opinion.  (MAIN SHOW) Women’s Survivor Series match  Before the match started when Nia Jax’s music hit, she got volcanic heat from the Los Ang...

WWE Wrestlemania: Backlash 2021 | A Coherent Review.

Wrestlemania: Backlash or as I like to call it, Backlashimania, gets an enthusiastic thumbs up for me. I enjoyed the hell out of this PPV overall.  Images via WWE.com The opening intro was narrated by the greatest of all time, Batista and it was straight badass despite the fact it was pretty much a promotion for Zack Snyder's new film, Army Of The Dead.  If you've read my about page, then you'll know that I ain't talking about Zack Snyder movies because his fans are…… never mind.  Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka For The RAW Women's Championship.  Charlotte with the Cruella De Vil inspired ring gear was to quote Dolph Ziggler's old theme song, "perfection". The opening bout was fast-paced, high octane action that didn't have a slow/dull moment.  All of these women utilized quick grapples and strikes to their advantage.  Charlotte was this close to capturing the title but she was pushed to the outside, nailed the riptide to Asuka and that...

WWE NXT 2.0 16/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

I haven't reviewed NXT in two weeks and holy crap, I didn't miss much at all.  This week's show was BO. RING and I'm trying to make this interesting by adding my lame a** humour and you know you f'd up when I have to rely on my jokes to make this week's NXT discussion somewhat engaging.  Images via WWE.com   Tony D'Angelo vs Dexter Lumis.  The scary white man vs The spicy white man. WHO WILL SURVIVE!?  The answer is my favourite POC wrestler currently, Tony D'Angelo (that joke will never get old).  Johnny Gargano came to check on Dexter Lumis after Camelo Hayes and Trick Williams destroyed Lumis' hand.  Minutes later, all three guys in Dunne, Gargano and Hayes announced a triple threat match for the North American championship.  Should be a good match, is all I'm going to say about that.  Odyssey Jones And Jacket Time vs The Diamond Mine.  First off, Jacket time isn't a good tag team name. It sounds like me as a 5-year-old after wearing ...
