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 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...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

Let's Talk About The State Of Wrestlemania 37.

I usually save those kinds of pieces for my weekly news series, The 5 News Week due to how modern this subject is and how my essays usually dwell on the past.  Usually, it is too early to talk about an upcoming Wrestlemania in October but not this time especially since we're still in a pandemic.  This is a topic I've been thinking about all month and I had to write my thoughts on it.  Let's answer this question right away whether Wrestlemania 37 will happen in SoFii stadium next year?  from CBS Los Angeles The answer is an obvious no. But, I want to try to dig deeper and see exactly where we stand today.  As of me writing this, Wrestlemania: Hollywood edition is still scheduled to take place in SoFi stadium despite an outlet that shall not be named, claiming otherwise.  This is either sheer blind optimism or downright idiotic from Dubya, Dubya E.  WrestleVotes did mention back in July that while the event is still going to take place in the stadium,...
