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 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 t...

WWE Smackdown Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

  It is the season premiere of Friday night Smackdown even though WWE doesn't have an offseason.  Nevertheless, it was a decent program and had a WAY better ending than whatever the hell of an ending last year's premiere of Friday night Smackdown showed.  There isn't a women's match this week and all of the AEW fanboys are looking at this like, "sEe, WWE dOeSn't feATuRe wOmeN'S mAtChEs aLsO."  pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Smackdown 2020.  The show started off with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon highlighting the scheduled matches for Smackdown as well as the superstars.  Chaos then ensued thanks to a huge brawl. Then, the "super freak" Lars Sullivan came out and delivered the freak accident to Shorty G.  Somehow, Jeff Hardy attacked him and that led to the opening match of the night between Lars and Jeff.  You know, I'm kind of surprised that two white people in McMahon and Hemsley knew who Rick James is.  Maybe I'm igno...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Fyter Fest 2020 Came Back Swinging?

Last week, on this very series, I said that I enjoyed Great American Bash better than Fyter Fest.  Well, this week is the exact opposite. AEW came in swinging with night 2 Fyter Fest.  I've not liked a Dynamite episode in several weeks so it's nice to see that the show finally executed a great show since God knows how long.   NXT      Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Mia Yim vs Candice LeRae In A Street Fight. The match went underway after Yim quickly attacked Candice LeRae during LeRae's entrance.  In the crowd area, Candice tried to nail the suplex on the table but Yim got out of that position and kicked her to which she landed through the table.  The Streetfight concluded with LeRae striking Yim with the brass knuckles followed by a swinging neck from the top of the table onto a bunch of chairs and that's how LeRae defeats the HBIC.  A fun opening match even though...
