WWE Smackdown 14/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

WOAH, WOOOOOAH *Insert drums* BURN IT DOWN *insert more drums*

Don't know why I just quoted Seth Rollins' theme song. Probably because I'm bored and have nothing else better to do on a Saturday afternoon (which explains the Smackdown review). 

Now, how was the show? It was aight. 

The Viking Raiders vs Angel And Humberto Carrillo vs Jinder Mahal And Shank vs Mansoor And Cesaro. Winner Gets A Blue Tag Belt Opportunity. 

The best part about all of this was The Usos introduction of all 4 members. Gotta say, they're pretty natural at this and wouldn't mind them doing ring announcing full time. 

The only thing they should avoid is threatening somebody with WWE lawyers. 

The Viking Raiders won the whole thing and all I can say is, finally! No more Viking Raiders vs Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss matches. 

Why WWE Be Messing With Sami Like That!? 

That "InZayn" stunt show is sad to watch. He should've been doing so much better than trying to do knockoff Jacka** stunts (aka the only successful hardcore backyard wrestling promotion). 

Rick Boogs and Shinsuke Nakamura got involved by throwing Sami near the announce table. 

Cool. 

Aliyah Beat Natalya In 3 Seconds. 

I mean, good for her, I guess? 

Lita Doesn't See Charlotte Flair Winning The Royal Rumble. 

The reason? Well, Charlotte Flair has a giant head. I'll have you know, LITA that as a person with a giant head, this is not only offensive but also flat out wrong. 

The Rock has a huge a** head and look where that got him, huh? 

And guess what, he's a Royal Rumble winner too (somewhere, somehow, Big Show is crying after seeing the last sentence). 


Susan Deville was glad that she avoided a potential beat down from Naomi. 

Since the woman with all the glow was screwed during her match with Charlotte Flair, Adam Pearce decided to run that match back next week. 

Susan should stay out of black people's business for real! 

Ricochet vs Sheamus. 

A good match is all I'll say. The brawling and high flying styles complement each other very well. The man once known as the "great white", won the match with the brogue kick. 

Midcap Moss vs Kofi Kingston. 

Moss defeated former WWE champion, Kofi Kingston. 2022 is a new year after all because damn that is sad to mention the results of the encounter. 

Roman Reigns And Seth Rollins Traded Insults. 

Why? Because it ain't a freaking title without mentioning someone's significant other. 

I didn't love this segment nor did I despite it. The scene did a notable job of furthering the story between the two Shield brothers. 

By the way, I was just reminded that the trio debuted on WWE TV 10 years ago. You mean to tell me that for the past 8 or so years before Summerslam 2020, Roman Reigns was on a NOSTALGIA ACT!? 

Sheeeeeit. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Ricochet vs Sheamus, The Usos as ring announcers. 

Didn't like: Poor Sami Zayn, Midcap Moss defeating former WWE champion doesn't feel right.

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 ...
