WWE RAW 23/5/22 | A Coherent Review

You know that time has passed by when Doctor Strange has been in cinemas near you for 3 weeks and the Naomi and Sasha walkout situation is a week old.

Meanwhile, my hairline is still receding so time hasn't changed all that much. But, at least this week's Monday Night RAW episode didn't piss me off (that would be a lie, my guy).

Look At Riddle Supporting His Friend, Randall.

Hey now, Riddle will probably do something devious. After all, he is a POS. For real though, it does look like Orton's back issues are real based on a few news articles I've read. Wishing Randall Keith Orton a Reverse-Flash level speedy recovery.

Riddle then teamed up with the Street Profits to face The Usos and Sami Zayn and it was fine. Riddle stood tall in the end as he led his team to victory.

Bobby Lashley said, "Hey, MVP. Me And You In A Match Tonight."

Headline once again doing God's work describing a 10-minute segment however, headline missed one key point. And that is, if Bobby wins then he chooses a stipulation *cough, cough Hell In A Cell match*

And of course, your boy Bob did beat MVP with ease. Again *cough, cough Hell In A Cell match*

Judgement Day pulled a Cultaholic and said, "JOIN US!"

The stable that's darker than WWE's business practices has made its mark once again by inflicting some good old backside whopping to AJ Styles and Liv Morgan.

Edge got so personal to AJ, I'm surprised he didn't call Wendy.

Indian Gigachad Almost Destroyed The Mysterios Once Again In King's Court.

Yea, I would've given Jerry Lawler a beating if I was Veer Mahaan.

Alexa Bliss vs Nikki A.S.H

Former tag team partners battled it out in a decent encounter. And Like the previous weeks, Bliss has won a match, defeating Nikki A.S.H.

Side note, her new theme song is kinda mid and that's me being positive considering how terrible WWE themes songs have been.

Cody Rhodes vs The Miz AGAIN!?

Rhodes has been facing the same WHITE people since his WWE return. This isn't revolutionary thinking, my brotha.

The match ended via a DQ due to a vicious beating from Seth Rollins.

Ezekiel vs Chad Gable AGAIN!?

Man, WWE loves their rematches with the exact same conclusion!

Asuka vs Becky Lynch.

Ever since I saw this match being announced, I knew how it would end. With some shenanigans outside the ring between those two women and Bianca Belair that will lead to a triple threat match.

Was I right here? YESSIR. The way the match ended with a sunset flip pin after Asuka rolled back to the ring was so lame.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.

Like: Pretty much nothing

Didn't like: Veer should've beaten up Jerry Lawler because he's Jerry f**king Lawler, the way the match between Asuka and Becky Lynch ended, rematches with the exact same conclusion.

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 ...

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...

The Obsession With Ratings. Warranted Or Not?

(Just a bit of a heads-up, this article contains a lot of the word "ratings"). Rating. Rating. Rating. It is a word that you see or hear many times throughout your wrestling fandom but why is that? Well, it's interesting to see how your weekly consumption does by the numbers every week. However, that conversation can turn the other way. The toxic, " logic-filled" , gatekeeping way that is (you see why I muted the word "rating" on Twitter?). Fans have been talking about TV ratings for years but that discussion has skyrocketed once AEW Dynamite and NXT airs on the same night every week ya know because wrestling fans am I right? Before I answer the question of whether the obsession with TV ratings is warranted or not, I'll first have to briefly describe the Nielsen rating (which is an American TV rating system. No sh*t, Omar). A Summary Of The History Of The Nielsen Ratings. The Nielsen rating system was introduced...
