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.

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...
