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.

Should Dave Meltzer Get Rid Of His Rating System?

So a few weeks ago, good old Dave Meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter gave the Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny omega match at dominion 2018 a 7-star rating. According to the interent wrestling database , this match is by far his HIGHEST match rating ever (i don't blame him because the match was amazing). So statistically, this is his favourite match of all time . Now, why I'm writing this now?  Well, his best match ratings have been a consistent 5 stars since 1983 with the exception of all the Omega vs Okada matches and the Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match at AJPW's Budokan hall show in June of 1994.  There are fans that take his match ratings as an offence somehow like "Why he rates X match better than Y match?" or thinks that he "hates" WWE which is ridiculous considering that he gave three WWE matches a 5 star ratings just this past year. One was the ladder match to crown the first ever NXT North American champion, the Johnny Garga...

WWE Smackdown Live 10/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was a bad show that did nothing as a wrestling fan to gain any excitement for extreme rules. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good. No scratch that, i'm gonna give you what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. WHAT'S OK The opening segment and the brawl after that The opening segment was meh. And the brawl after that was fine. Didn't make me go "OHHHHHHHHHHH" or anything like along those lines. That brawl leads to a TEN MAN TAG TEAM match (Ummmmmm no shit omar). I will say this, the segment kinda teased the fact that maybe kane will turn on his best friend? I don't know. Should be interesting.  Andrade "cien" almas vs Sin cara The match was surprisingly decent. At one point andrade delivered a devastating stomp to sin cara on the ring apron. Andrade wins with a running knee to sin cara on the middle rope. Hoping andrade can move on to bigger and better things.  WHAT'S BAD ...

WWE Smackdown Live 19/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This show was overall, a skippable show just like RAW yesterday and here's why.  Opening segment.  The show kicked off with Shane McMahon with his usual cheap pop. After that, Shane McMahon announced that Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Tommaso Ciampa will be on SmackDown Live just like RAW last night (click here to read my RAW review).  Out came The Miz and he said that he hasn't stop thinking about their match at Elimination Chamber. Miz also said he admitted that he used Shane because Miz wanted to make Shane McMahon understand where's Miz's coming from.  Miz then wanted a rematch between him, Shane McMahon and the Usos for the SmackDown Live tag team championship to which the Usos came out and insulted The Miz.  That led to Shane McMahon saying that the rematch is on but at Fastlane in two weeks. So we got the first official match scheduled for Fastlane and considering that Shane is a McMahon and has all the Authority, I do...
