WWE Smackdown After Wrestlemania 38 | A Coherent Review

 Smackdown after Wrestlemania 38 was really, really, really skippable. Nothing noteworthy happened which unfortunately is the standard of all Smackdown after Wrestlemania episodes. 

Ronda Wanted A Rematch For The Blue Women's Belt In An I Quit Match At The Backlash Of Wrestlemania. 

Headline once again doing the lord's work by describing the entire segment. If you've watched Wrestlemania then this isn't surprising given how the match ended. 

Also, a black woman making a Susan tap out? I'm all for it. 

Xavier Woods vs Butch. 

Remember when Xavier Woods was once called "King Woods" because he won The King Of The Ring tournament? No? Well, so did WWE apparently. 

Nevertheless, the match was prettay good. After the Butcha bruf lost to Woods via an inside cradle, he decided to have a bit of a scuffle with Ridge Holland and Sheamus. 

Maybe this is the way to bring back the Peter Dune we know and love? Highly doubt that but I'm praying to Allah that it happens though. 

Gunther Destroys A Local Competitor. 

Local competitor aka a nice way to call someone a jobber. By the way, that theme song of his? Get rid of it because just like Arby's, it's f**king trash. The OG was way better like why the sudden change?  Speaking of change, Marcel Barthel is now Ludwig Kaiser named after that Youtube Guy. At least Gunther won the match, right? 

Happy Corbin Was Like, "Bro, you're just like Dolph Ziggler in that you're mid af". 

Corbin took his frustrations on Madcap Moss but failed as he was thrown out of the ring by the man himself. 

Midcap Moss no more? For real though, how long do you think that WWE would pull out an Alex Riley on Moss? My answer is not for long. 

Lacey Evans Is Back With An Origin Story About Her Life. 

I missed when she dressed as her grandmother and pretended to be someone in a time that white people would like to bring back. 

Sasha Banks vs Liv Morgan. 

The match itself was aight. Liv Morgan won the match with the most protective move in pro wrestling today, the roll-up. 

Drew McIntyre vs Sami Zayn. 

The Scotsman won the match via a count-out due to Zayn running all the way to the crowd area. Can they skip to the part where McIntyre faces Roman Reigns for the blue belt? I'll like that. 


And speaking of the tribal chief, the show ended with him telling his cousins in The Usos to bring the RAW tag team championship into the bloodline. Out came Shinsuke Nakamura and he was later attacked by The Usos after Roman Reigns "sympathized with his pain" of losing his tag team partner via an injury. 

It looks like Nakamura could be Roman's next feud and I'm all for it, honestly. It's about time that Shinsuke is elevated into the star that he should be. 

Other than that, the segment was, like the entire episode, pretty forgettable and skippable. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Xavier Woods vs Butch. 

Didn't like: The entire show was a good old waste of time.

WWE RAW 7/1/19 | My Coherent Review

My first RAW review of 2019 and surprisingly, this show was decent. Now, would RAW put on decent shows in the coming weeks or months? Probably not but I hope that's the case. Now, usually on my RAW and Smackdown Live reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad ( click here if you curious as to how the format looks like). However, since this is the new year, I'm gonna get rid of that and instead just put my in-depth thoughts just like my PPV reviews. Without further ado, on with the review.  Opening Segment The show itself started off with a brawl between Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley that lasted for a very short period of time. After that’s done, the opening segment started with John Cena and cuts a promo on how he’s gonna earn his golden ticket to Wrestlemania by entering in this year’s Royal Rumble match.  Out came Drew McIntyre and he said that Cena’s accomplishments is what Drew cares about. He then went on how he’s b...

The 5 News Week: The Current Plan For Eva Marie According To Reports.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately.  Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  What’s Going On With The ShowBuzz Daily Website!? Dave Meltzer on the Wrestling Observer has expressed concern regarding Showbuzz Daily not posting the daily TV rating due to technical issues stating (from Cagesideseats ) "all wrestling companies, TV companies, sports stations, etc. looked to that site for numbers.” The owner of the Showbuzz Daily entity, Mitch Metcalf, took to the blue hell that is Twitter and said that they can't add content to the site anymore over a shutdown that isn't clear as to what caused the shutdown itself.  Metcalf went on to highlight that due to operating the site without generating revenue, the cost and time to bring back the site has made him think about the future of ShowBuzz Daily.  Is...

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...
