WWE RAW 30/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

Is Hell In A Cell next week? Yes. 

Am I excited about the show? Hell no. 

Does my "productivity" increase while getting paid in pennies? Yes, yes and yes. 

Is this episode really good? Ah…...No. Expect some "cool" and "this match was aight" because nothing really noteworthy happened which is Smackdown's middle name. "The nothing show" with bad creative. 

Bianca Belair vs Asuka. 

Now, you may think that RAW started off with a match (you know, like NXT before the skittles phase) but nope. The show actually began with the usual arrogant Becky promo that led to a brawl between her, Belair and Asuka. 

This is a Wrestlemania main event worthy match and it kinda sucks that it's happening on a random forgettable episode of RAW. However, at least I enjoyed it for what it was. 

Belair's defeat over Asuka was followed by an immediate beatdown from Becky Lynch. 

Ezekiel (or as Kevin Owens would say "Ezekiel") Rey And Dominik Mysterio vs Alpha Academy And Kevin Owens. 

A pretty decent 6 man tag team match, Playas. The babyfaces won the match with a double 619 followed by a suplex position into a drift away by Ezekiel to Chad Gable. 

Cody Rhodes Physically DESTROYED Seth Rollins Over His Constant Use Of the Word, "Drip". 

Rhodes. The TRUE man of the people. 

For real though, this entire segment was basically one huge brawl. 

Alexa Bliss vs Doudrop. 

Once again, Alexa Bliss won a match with the twisted bliss. 

Bliss has been winning so much, Goldberg would be jealous by now. 

24/7 Shenanigans Meets Miz TV. A Recipe For A Horrible Segment. 

I will say, having the Street Profits watching the mess unfold was pretty funny, not gonna lie. 

Tozawa kissed Tamina to a 24/7 championship victory. Why? I have no idea.

Mustafa Ali vs Ciampa. 

I'll take this match as a rivalry over Ali and Austin Theory. This ain't a Monday Night RAW episode without a DQ finish and that's exactly what happened here. 

Post-match saw The US champion give Ali a beating mainly because Ali doesn't look like a f**king Attack On Titan character. 

Theory used that as a way to conduct an impromptu US championship immediately after that beating and guess who won the whole thing? 

Don't need to answer this because it's the "beaten up babyface is in a match immediately and loses" cliche. 

Oh, and a rematch is happening next week. Al Cool Bin Tamam. 

Riddle And Shinsuke Nakamura vs The Usos. Championship Contender's Match.

I see WWE is deploying the GM mode booking tactic by having the number one contender face the champion before their PPV encounter. 

It didn't make The Usos the brightest ones of the Bloodline as they disqualified themselves leading to a championship match. 

You can't say WWE isn't innovative by executing a rare dumb heel move. 

Rhea Ripley vs Liv Morgan. 

Liv Morgan wins the bout which led to a brawl between The Judgment Day stable, AJ Styles, Finnie Baylord and the aforementioned, Liv Morgan. Coolirnos. 

Bobby Lashley's Contract Signing With MVP And Omos Ended With A Brawl. 

Another brawl? This is Monday Night RAW, NOT F**KING AEW DYNAMITE! 

The difference between the bunch is that it was pretty one-sided as Omos, Cedric Alexander and MVP took out Lashley. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Bianca Belair vs Asuka, Street Profits watching the chaos that is the 24/7 championship scene.

Didn't like: The Usos ending their match in a no DQ was pretty stupid, Austin Titan, Brawls everywhere straight out of an AEW Dynamite episode.

The 5 News Week: What's Going On With Nia Jax As Of Late!?, Xavier Woods Talks About The Racial Injustice In The US.

Yes, The 5 New Week made its return after a 2-week hiatus and I wanna admit something to you guys.  Last year, I was really looking forward to 2020 and how unlike 2019, I'm actually going to maintain a schedule of articles I put out every week (which you can see the entire thing by clicking on the about page).  But, I certainly didn't and it really bothers me that I have to not publish an article due to personal life or a struggle with fighting against my mortal enemy, laziness. The inconsistencies of the articles I publish will continue and that's the sad part. Anywho, on with the news.  What's Going On With Nia Jax As Of Late!?  Last week, Fightful Select and Sean Ross Sapp stated that Kairi Sane was badly injured that involved a cut on her head during a match with Nia Jax.  Now, whenever the words " x wrestler injured " and " Nia Jax " are in the same sentence then you'll know the rest of the song.  Fast forward to this pas...

WWE RAW 18/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

The NXT calls up made this show a bit better but overall, this show was not only forgettable but as well as it was a visual Nyquil.   Opening segment.  This show started off with Triple H and cut a promo basically saying that history was made last night and also talked about DX being inducted into the WWE hall of fame (congrats to them).  After that, Triple H announced two things. One, 5 NXT talents will be in action tonight and showed a great video package highlighting those men. They are Ricochet, Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa. Two, a tables match between Braun Strowman and Baron Corbin (sigh).  I don't know if that's an official call up but considering that WWE hasn't done pretty anything with the other NXT call ups, I'm not optimistic about how WWE creative books them in the near future.  Braun Strowman vs Baron Corbin in a tables match.  Braun Strowman won the match with a running powerslam through...

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...
