WWE RAW 21/3/22 | A Coherent Review.

 We’re a few weeks till the so-called, “show of shows” and this has been by far, the weakest build I’ve ever covered. It’s so bad, I'll bet your "MyGm" playthrough in 2K22 had a better build. 

And this episode proved my point. It isn’t the worst RAW I’ve seen but it’s definitely one of the most mediocre ones out there. 

At least Veer is finally COMING! My man should talk to Sean Ross Sapp for a blue chew sample because it took him forever to come. 

Kevin Baldwens!? 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THAT WAS AWFUL! 

Owens, dressed as the rattlesnake himself, decided to mess with the audience by mocking Steve Austin (and no, it's not because Austin is apparently a fan of the Backstreet boys). 

I will give Kevin credit here. He's trying to make this arc work but honestly, I'm not a fan of the execution mainly because the rivalry will lead to one big talk show segment at WrestleMania and NOTHING ELSE (could be wrong though). 

Seth Rollins Wanted Styles To Take His Spot In FACING Edge And……….. 

The phenomenal flat-earther said, "face me b*tch" and that's exactly what happened. 

Edge nailed AJ with a chair shot on his back which led to the match ending in a DQ and Sethy literally tore everything that was around him out of frustration. 

There are two things that interest me about this year's Wrestlemania. The obvious one is Styles vs Edge. The second interesting thing, however, is Seth Rollins' "directionless" angle and how he wants to contribute to the biggest spectacle in pro wrestling. 

It's surprisingly a rare story being told but it's also a simple one too based totally in reality due to the fact that drippy Jesus got nothing going on for Titan Tower's biggest show of the year. 

Rey And Dominik Mysterio vs Robert Roode And Dolph Ziggler. 

Dolph Ziggler has gotten the "mid" treatment for so long, I just found out that the guy is currently an NXT champion aka the least noteworthy NXT champion since Bo Dallas. 

After the Mysterios won the match, your boy Mike ripped off Rey's mask. In other words, "a heel takes off Rey Mysterio's mask and becomes obsessed with it" cliche. 

Cool. 

Omos vs Apollo Crews And Commander Azeez. 

Remember when Apollo got a bit of a push a year or so ago? Yea, WWE wants you to forget about it so Whatculture includes that in their "ten things WWE want you to forget about Apollo Crews". 

Omos destroyed these dudes with a double chokeslam. 

In a backstage segment, Zelina Vega slapped Carmella was like, "focus on us, B*TCH!" By the way, if you wanna portray Carmella like that, at least get her a phone that isn't 7 years old (I'm sarcastically nitpicking). 


Rhea Ripley and Liv Morgan lost to Shayna Baszler and Natalya. Coolinos.

Meanwhile, Becky Lynch cut a pretty good promo basically stating that she'll beat up Bianca Belair (aka if the word "black excellence" was on display). 

RKBRO got a BEA. TING. 

By who? Both The Street Profits and Alpha Academy after Riddle pinned Chad Gable for the victory. Noice! 

Meanwhile, Austin Theory lost to Finnie Baylord due to the good old distraction finish by Pat McAfee. 

Meanwhile, meanwhile, Reginald and Dana Brooke defeated Akira Tozawa and Tamina in what feels like the 20th movie in the Fast And The Furious franchise. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: the Seth Rollins arc and Becky Lynch's promo. 

Didn't like: the opening segment, dull a** Wrestlemania build.

WWE NXT Takeover: XXV | My Coherent Review.

Look guys, I don't need to tell you this. This was a great show. Now, you're probably be asking "if you don't need to tell me this then why are you to quote yourself, TELLING ME THIS!?" Good question but the reason why is because I like to talk about great pro wrestling.  Matt Riddle vs Roderick Strong.  An absolute must rewatch match for me and a must watch for you guys if you haven't seen it. Match started off with some amateur wrestling style takedown from both guys.  Then, Roderick Strong hit a modified back suplex on the ring apron. By then, Riddle hits Strong with a brainbuster. Riddle had the highlight of that match by hitting Strong with a go to sleep (yes, that go to sleep) into a German suplex with a bridge.  Roderick hits a powerbomb pin into a Boston crab then the match ends with Riddle delivered with a move that I wish I knew what the name of it was.  Street Profits vs The Forgotten Sons (in Steve Cutler and Wesley Blake) vs The Undi...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking).  However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?”  In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t.  There are fans out there on the interweb that b...

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...
