WWE Smackdown 21/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

 Another week, another time Pat McAfee shows me why he's better than Corey Graves. Both in the ring AND on the commentary table. 

As far as how I feel about this week's episode, it ain't good, people. It ain't good.

Sethy Mane Wanted A Tag Partner So….……….


That he faces The Usos later in the show and if drippy Jesus wins, 2 out of 3 members of the Bloodline are barred off ringside in the blue title encounter (in case you were wondering, Kevin Owens was Seth's tag partner). 

BUTTTTTTTTTTTT! The tribal chief had other ideas. He proposed a pitch where if the "burn it down" man loses the tag match, the Rumble match is gone, FINITO! 

Bully Ray probably saw Seth Rollins' uttering Jox Moxley's name and reacted, "HOW DARE YOU!! BLASPHEMY!" 

Fortunately for SR The Drip Mane, he got what he wanted via a DQ finish thanks to a superman punch from Roman Reigns.

While the ending did protect the tag champs, the consequences of it were just confusing especially since Reigns "wanted a vacation till Wrestlemania" and it indirectly gave Rollins a leg up. 

The entire structure of the match going into it, had both RAW superstars being victorious which made the bout badly predictable. 


As a guy that loves the idea of Rollins facing Reigns at the Royal Rumble for the blue belt, the booking of this feud, so far, has been unappetizing. 

Madcap Moss vs Kofi Kingston. 

Hey guys, I may be sick of this match happening twice but at least the other side in Kofi Kingston won the whole thing, RIGHT!? 

Aliyah vs Natalya. 

Speaking of meaningless rematches. Natalya's series of stomps onto Aliyah, cost the match to end via a DQ which gave Aliyah the win. 

Xia Li came to save Aliyah from a beatdown by Natalya. 

Wait, is Xia Li's character basically the white Knight because all she's been doing since her main roster tenure is literally rescuing people. 

The Viking Raiders vs Los Lotharios. 

A decent match for what it was. The raiding men from somewhere in Scandinavia won the match with the Viking Experience (side note, Thor's hammer was a way better name but I'm just nitpicking). 

Susan Messes Over A Black Woman. In Other News, The Colour Of Blood Is Red. 

Do I really have to explain why!? A match is happening between Deville and Naomi next week so we will see what happens. 

Sheamus vs Ricochet. 

The only thing I enjoyed about this episode. Sheamus emerged victorious because who didn’t besides the people that convinces fans to “let it play out”. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Sheamus vs Ricochet I guess? 

Didn't like: The writing of the Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins feud so far, the meaningless rematches.

WWE RAW 16/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another L for the red brand in terms of overall quality. And they do not need that L considering that it's the final show before this year's SummerSlam event.  Images via WWE.com   Randal Keith Orton And Riddal Are Back Together?  Randy explained his actions last week, stating that he simply doesn't owe anyone an explanation because he's Randy Orton (okay?).  Out came the most obnoxious person in Riddle and he wanted RKBRO to reunite. Styles showed up to hype up his big goof in Omos.  That RKO last week was as confusing as the thought of Jupiter Ascending being a "good movie".    The question is, did the band realigned themselves once again?  The answer was a soft no if you stopped watching the show after the Riddle and AJ Styles match (I don't blame ANYONE that stops watching Monday Night RAW).  However, that became a solid yes after Randy's bout with Omos. Am I the only one that feels kinda mid about this?  It's not terri...

WWE RAW 20/4/20 | A Coherent Review.

This episode of Monday Night RAW felt like if last week's show had a sequel if that analogy makes sense?  It didn't have a new, fresh take on the show and they instead played it safe which is fine. In this case, adding a few risks will definitely help the show from the overall feeling of emptiness metaphorically speaking of course.  Drew McIntyre Addresses The Man That Stomped Him Twice.   McIntyre opens a Monday Night RAW show with a promo for the second episode in a row. He wasn't shocked that Seth Rollins attacked him last week due to his new price possession and how the superstars want that taste of gold.  Angel Garza's music hits and the current United States champion, Andrade, strikes Drew but that led to not one but two claymore kicks on Andrade.  A decent opening segment. Did its job on building the main event match between Garza and Drew McIntyre. It must be cool for Angel Garza to go one on one with THE WWE champion. A definite car...

WWE RAW 3/2/20 | My Coherent Review.

I thought I would never say this but so far, I'm actually looking forward to Super showdown 2020 and this episode further explains why.  The red brand did a great job on building two upcoming shows and WWE should be applauded for that in my opinion (also, the crowd tonight was on fire. Shout out to Salt Lake City).  Randy Orton Respond About His Actions Last Week.  Following a brutal attack from the viper last week and a video package to open this very show, Randy explains his actions by not explaining much saying that he can't do this with a storm of boos that rivalled Salt Lake City's snowstorm earlier that day.  This was a brilliant segment. He continues to show emotion about what he did last week despite not saying much. It was short but sweet.  Liv Morgan vs Lana.   After the second victory in a row for Liv Morgan, Riott Squad leader Ruby Riott returned to betray her best friend and Lana used that attack from Ruby to further...
