WWE RAW 16/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

Oh boy. The entire situation of Sasha Banks and Naomi walking out is literally the thing people are talking about the show even though it's not a work. 

The thing that we all should take away from this is knowing our value and if anybody doesn't see it then to quote Rick Ross, "F**k EM!" 

Oh, and RAW was aight, I guess. The thing that I appreciated about the episode is that it had some sense of direction in certain aspects which WWE has lacked for a minute now. 

Omos vs Bobby Lashley In A Steel Cage. 

My man Bobby is struggling inside a salad steel cage. And so was Cedric as he fell from the top of the cage. Lashley escaped the cage which means Bob the destroyer is the winner. 

The match was surprisingly enjoyable. 

Mustafa Ali vs Veer Mahaan With Special Guest Referee, The Miz. 

Once again, The Miz screwed Mustafa over and as a result, Veer took it as an advantage to tap Ali out and win the whole thing as a result. 

When will Mustafa slap the sh*t of Austin Titan over here? 

Unfortunately, that didn't happen but what did happen was the Mysterios returning and basically putting down the giant (Segway GOAT right there). 

Riddle vs Jimmy Uso. 

The almighty Distraction finish is how Jimmy Uso won the match. Pop. 


Judgement Day is opening for folks joining their group that looks like a Satanist entity with an alt-right leader. 

AJ Styles And Finn Balor vs Los Lotharios. 

I should have a feeling of enthusiasm for AJ teaming with Finn Balor but I don't and it feels like it was put together aka their middle name. The babyfaces won the match. Cool. 


Kevin Owens isn't a fan of the DNA test since it doesn't prove that Ezekiel is Elias. Damn you, barbecue sauce! 

Cody Rhodes Talks About Revolutionary Interviews and Revolutionary Actions. 

Did I hear "revolution"? My wise white ally is quoting Fred Hampton. Gotta love it. 

Rhodes wanted a Hell In a Cell match between himself and Seth Rollins and  Rollings was like, "Aight. Bet." 

I don't hate this. 

Sonya Deville vs Alexa Bliss. 

For the second week in a row, Deville lost to Alexa Bliss. Nice! 


R Truth pranked Akira Tozawa into giving him the divorce papers in the purse of the green ugly belt (nice Swerved reference by him). 

Also, R Truth and Carmella kinda reunited but that's a different Carmella Truth encountered. 

Ezekiel vs Chad Gable. 

Kevin Owens insulting the commentators for saying that Cody hasn't competed in 6 years was straight up priceless coming from the prizefighter. 


What's Lacey Evans' gimmick now? Megan McCain with camouflage? 

Becky Lynch vs Asuka. Winner Faces Bianca Belair For The RAW Women's Championship At Hell In A Cell.

Asuka defeated Becky Lynch in a solid main event encounter. 

A distraction finish but this one kinda made sense but the use of the trope was still too much. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Cody Rhodes quoting Fred Hampton, Kevin Owens on commentary during Ezekiel's match with Gable, Omos vs Bobby Lashley in a steel cage. 

Didn't like: overuse of the distraction finish? GOTTA GO!

WWE NXT 18/9/19 | My Coherent Review.

The first and the upcoming NXT TV episodes with an hour added to it and was it any good? Honestly, it was great. Really liked how they implemented NXT, NXT UK and 205 Live.  The only thing I could critique is that the pacing was a bit off but I'm sure that Triple H and the rest of the creative team will handle that in the near future.  There was a different intro narrated by Triple H basically putting NXT over which was great. Io Shirai vs Bianca Belair vs Mia Yim vs Candice Lerae. Winner Gets To Face Shayna Baszler For The NXT Women's Championship. Mia Yim at one point, hits the toe pay suicida (yes, I pronounced it that way sue me) Mamma Mia to most of the competitors and then, The genius of the sky does something genius in her element with a moonsault on everybody (that first line made no sense Omar, what is wrong with you?).  The match ended with a reverse hurricanrana and a springboard moonsault to become the number one contender for the NXT wome...

WWE Clash Of Champions 2019 | My Coherent Review.

This Clash of Champions show was one enormous meh. Also, AJ Styles in the pre-show? That's a first but that match was pretty decent as well as the cruiserweight championship match.  Seth Rollins And Braun Strowman vs Dolph Ziggler And Robert Roode For The RAW Tag team Championship.  During this tag team title match, Ziggler hits a devastating looking DDT to Seth Rollins outside the ring. The odd couple then delivered quick tag team moves but moments later Rollins reversed Ziggler's sleeper hold into a falcon arrow to which Rollins tagged Braun Strowman and took out Ziggler and Roode for a bit.  This match has ended with a Glorious DDT from Robert Roode to Seth Rollins after Braun accidentally knocked out Rollins and Ziggler threw the monster among men over the top rope.  A decent opener with a predictable ending that I don't mind. Maybe a triple threat match between the odd couple, The Viking Raiders and The O.C in Gallows and Anderson for the tag ...

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...
