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 RAW 1/2/21 | A Coherent Review.

Apparently, WWE are huge fans of The Weeknd because, for the second year in a row, his song is the main theme music for Wrestlemania. I can't blame them because he's actually a fantastic musician.  Anywho, how was Monday Night RAW? I didn’t hate it for the most part.  Images via WWE.com   Edge Confronts Drew McIntyre.  Drew McIntyre kicked off this week's episode and he quickly recapped last night's Royal Rumble show (which you can click here to read my review for it).  Out came the Rated R superstar himself and he wasn't a fan of Drew's compliments toward him saying that Drew should look at him as a huge target.  Edge then told the usual bits, "I'm gonna walk out of Wrestlemania as a champion" to which Sheamus brogue kicked his best friend, Drew McIntyre.  Keith Lee was right all along. This opening scene felt like it had so many things happening at once but that's just me nitpicking. It looks like this is the feud for a match either at Elimi...

WWE RAW 20/6/22 | A Coherent Review.

RAW was okay. That's it. That's the intro.  Bianca Belair vs Rhea Ripley for the red women's belt ain't happening!?  The reason being is that Rhea Ripley isn't medically cleared to compete so a fatal five-way number one contender's match was set up to determine the new number one contender (spoilers, it's Carmella).  A decision I do not mind or flat out hate.  My 1 and a half viewers will know that I've been critical of WWE's series of rematches but considering it was one of the best matches of the year (yes, I'm talking about Bianca Belair vs Becky Lynch), why not run it back one more time?  Riddle vs Omos. Money In The Bank Qualifying Match.  Y'all are about to be so surprised when I tell you that Omos won a match again.  Omos wins with the double chokeslam to qualify for the Money In The Bank ladder match.  Seth Rollins showed up (used the "forehead loser sign" like every uncle in the 90s to Riddle), stated that he'll be the ...

WWE NXT UK Takeover: Cardiff | My Coherent Review.

via WWE I don't watch or review the first NXT UK Takeover for some odd reason but I'm so glad I did because that was like the main NXT Takeovers, was absolutely great to watch. I'm just speechless and if you have watched the show then you'll know why (also, if you somehow didn't watch this show, what are you doing? Go and treat yourself with some wrestling goodness.) Noam Dar vs Travis Banks.  A very enjoyable opening match. Noam Dar proves that he's great at what he does with so many submission holes because if you don't know, I'm a technical wrestling connoisseur. Noam Dar won the match with a standing shining wizard.  Cesaro vs Ilja Dragunov. Always great to see Cesaro do what he does best and that's a fight inside the square circle. So, Ilja called out Cesaro because Cesaro's looking for an open challenge and Cesaro obviously picked his challenger.  The Swiss Cyborg started off this match by throwing Dragunov to the outside ...
