WWE Smackdown 4/2/22 | A Coherent Review.

 Gotta be honest guys, this episode didn't do it for me. 

Besides the announcement of Ronda Rousey challenging Charlotte Flair for the blue women's belt at Wrestlemania as well as another challenge proposed by Goldberg aka NoBerg to the tribal chief, this, like last week's show, was as skippable as an anime filler episode. 

Paul Heyman Was Like, "F**k That Brock Guy!" 

Brock and Paul legit need some counselling because they've broken up and reunited together like my relationship with the Call of Duty franchise. To quote Gordon Ramsey, "DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN!" 

All lame banter aside, Paul Heyman's promos before Goldberg's appearance was the only good thing throughout the entire show. 

As far as how I feel about the idea of Goldberg facing Roman Reigns at the upcoming Elimination Chamber show, major Ls on this one.  

Ricochet vs Ridge Holland. 

Yay, the "one on one match that later turned into a tag match" cliche. The difference is that you don't get to hear Teddy Long's theme music only for the guy to announce a tag team match, Playas. 

Ricochet won the singles match to which Holland came back with a W in the tag team match. Nice! 

Aliyah vs Natalya. 

I've seen this match so many times, my autocorrect literally filled the "Aliyah vs Natalya" line for me. 

Aliyah defeated the queen of hearts with a count-out. 

Erik vs Jimmy Uso. 

A decent match is all I'll say. One half of The Usos defeated the Viking man with a splash Samoa style.  

Drew McIntyre DEMANDS To Hear Some Jokes. 

Drew McIntyre is me after seeing Dave Chappelle's recent comedy special. 

This segment was far from a Chappelle show skit and more so the sh*t your classmate came up with because they'll remind us all that they're funny even though they're not. 


Sami Zayn got his IC title match in two weeks on the February 18th episode of Smackdown while Natalya gets yet another rematch (Inshallah, the last) from Aliyah in a dungeon style pinfall and submission only encounter. Coolirnos. 

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Jinder Mahal. 

Seeing this match one more, I was reminded of that God awful segment where Jinder Mahal made fun of Shinsuke Nakamura's accent because nothing screams WWE than a good old fashioned xenophobia. 

That sh*t ain't no reminder but rather a f**king nightmare. Nakamura wins with Kinshasa. F**king great, guys! 

The New Day vs Los Lotharios. 

Just like his tag partner, Big E went right back to his old position in the card instead of getting a WWE championship rematch and you know what? I absolutely hate it. 

But. But. But. At least, they won a match here, right? 



Like I said in the opening statement, Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair will face each other at the Mania of Wrestles for the blue women's belt. 

I mean, they had a fire match a few years ago so why can't this be the case? I would prefer Ronda facing Becky Lynch but it is what it is, I guess. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Paul Heyman's promo. 

Didn't like: JUST CANCEL THE ENTIRE F**KING EPISODE!

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
