WWE Smackdown 7/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

Are you ready for a GOOOOOOOOD time!" Well, not really since I found out about my workin…….. I mean productivity schedule. 

Enough about my sad adult life, how was Smackdown this week? It was surprisingly enjoyable considering how mediocre Smackdown has been as of late.

Brick Laser Beam Approach The Tribal Chief For A Title VS Title Match. 


And the universal champion was like, "We'll do this my time" aka it's happening. 

The Brook man questioned the way Heyman praised the blue champ which led to a superman punch from Roman to the WWE champion. 

I don't hate this idea. Bring it on, I guess? 

Rick Boogs vs Sami Zayn. 

You know Zayn has been underutilized when he got a jobber entrance. Rick wins the match. Oh, and Johnny Knoxville threw Sami over the top rope. Again, WHO!? 

Charlotte Flair Show Us The Participants For This Year's Women's Royal Rumble Match. 


I can't believe WWE did this. Summer Rae is coming back and all I can say is, HIDE NATALYA! 

All lame jokes aside, It is awesome to see Mickie James joining this year's Royal Rumble match especially since they announced her (at least on Twitter) as the Impact knockouts champion especially since WWE rarely acknowledges the wider wrestling landscape. 

An interaction with Naomi followed with a pretty good match even though Sonya pulled a Susan once again by screwing over a black woman. 

The Viking Raiders vs Happy Corbin And Madcap Moss. 

There was a Happy Corbin and Midcap Moss segment that I definitely cared about as much as WWE cares about their workers. 

The Viking Raiders lost to the team of Happy Corbin and Nocap Moss. 

The Usos vs The New Day For The Smackdown Tag Team Championship In A Street Fight. 


A great match but I do believe this should be the end of these two guys competing with each other at least for a while. 

The Usos retained the blue tag belts with the 3D to Kofi Kingston through a table. 


A match that feels like it was teased for almost a year now is finally official because Roman Reigns is facing his former Shield comrade, Seth Rollins for the blue belt at the Royal Rumble and the way Seth Rollins showed up to Roman's room was f'ing hilarious. 

Can't wait to see how these two guys interact over the next few weeks or so. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like:  Usos vs New Day, Charlotte Flair vs Naomi, the announcement of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins match at the Royal Rumble. 

Didn't like: Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss segment, #SamiZayndeservesbetter.

WWE Hell In A Cell 2020 | A Coherent Review.

WWE is continuing the streak of shorter PPVs and as a guy that lives overseas, I don't mind WWE doing this even if the fans come back to arenas.   Also, The 2020 edition of Hell In A Cell had a decisive and conclusive ending. Yayyyyyy!  The show itself was okay but it did have its moments, to say the least.  pictures via WWE.com Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso. Hell In A Cell I Quit Match.  I gotta say.  It is so weird to hear boos that WWE adds in the background for Roman Reigns given the history they've had in altering actual boos from the crowd many years ago.  It is also weird for WWE to open this show with a match that main evented the previous PPV. The question is, was it worth it? Heck yeah, dude.  Both men hit each other's finishers not once but twice and it wasn't enough for Reigns and Jey Uso to quit.  At one point, the match was turned into a strap match of some sort because Roman and Jey tied themselves with that strap. Jey used the strap...

WWE Royal Rumble 2021 | A Coherent Review.

I know it's something you've heard a gazillion times but it's true.  We are on the road to Wrestlemania which is f'ing crazy to think about.  While this year's Royal Rumble PPV had its moments, the show as a whole was just fine.  By the way, the show was almost 4 hours but it felt like 2.  As usual, I can't talk about the women's tag team title match at the pre-show simply because I've not seen it.  Images via WWE.com Drew McIntyre vs Goldberg For The WWE Championship.  When Goldberg hits the jackhammer, I almost had a heart attack but thank God the Scotsmen kicked out.   Oh, and Drew McIntyre won the match in a meh opening match that was shorter than the Immortals Fenix Rising demo (the most specific reference I've ever made).  They showed some respect after the match.  At least Drew McIntyre won, right?  Sasha Banks vs Carmella For The SmackDown Women's Championship.  Carmella almost killed herself with that sick looking suic...

WWE Smackdown Live 27/8/19 | My Coherent Review.

That episode coming out of a very good RAW episode (which you can click here to read my full thoughts on it), was mediocre.  Don't know if Vince changing the script had to do with it or not considering that sometimes those changes ended up being a decent show but if the new script had to do with how lame the show was then I'm not surprised.  Kofi Kingston Is Not In A Good Mood (no shit, Omar).   This episode of Smackdown Live started off with you guessed it, Kofi Kingston after Roman got a backstage interview about the reveal of Roman's attacker. Anywho, Kofi mentioned in his promo that he gave a beating to Randy Orton and how Randy made their championship match very personal when his buddies in The Revival strikes Xavier Woods' leg and when Randy brings up his family. At Clash of Champions, Kofi vows to prove Randy Orton wrong by walking out of that show still WWE champion. Randy Orton showed up via titantron and he said that he got a letter that wa...
