WWE RAW 9/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

 Yes, I didn't review Wrestlemania Backlash because one, I knocked out after a long day and two, why not? I did watch the show and it's like an episode of a Telltale game in that it's short and sweet. 

How was the red brand this week? 

Even though Wrestlemania Backlash is over, it still feels like I'm watching a build toward that show. It's like eating yesterday's leftovers with some fresh salad on the side, ya know. I'm hoping Hell In A Cell concludes everything. 

The Street Profits vs RKBRO For The RAW Tag Team Championship. 

Hey, look. A good tag team match, playas! Yes, they've fought each other more times than Call Of Duty sequels but like I said, I enjoyed it. RKBRO retained the championship with an RKO from Riddle to Montez Ford. 

Rhea Ripley Is Now An Evil Goth Girl. 

She said, "f**k them, kids". Also, why's Edge rocking the "I believe in white genocide" look? Ripley had a match with Liv Morgan and of course, she won the whole thing. 

Speaking of Judgement Day, Damian Priest faced Finnie Baylord and it ended via a DQ due to Edge delivering a spear to the former US champion (Finn Balor, not Damian Priest obviously because that would've been something Vince Russo came up with). 

AJ did show up but yet again, the odds were too much for him to handle just like factual information that isn't a conspiracy theory. 

Bobby Lashley Wrecks Havoc On The VIP Lounge. 

*Ugh* this f**king feud again!? SKIP. 

Sonya Deville vs Alexa Bliss. 

Susan Deville is no longer a WWE official. If you're a Naomi fan, REJOICE! Oh, and Alexa Bliss made a return and legit just squashed her in a matter of a minute or so. 

A Guy Named "Ken" Hates Ezekiel. 

Kevin "Ken" Owens still believes Ezekiel is Elias. He has a point, I mean, why isn't Elias trying to save his younger brother from a beatdown!? THINK ABOUT THAT! 

Indian Gigachad, Veer Mahaan Squashed Yet Another Person. 

Frank Lowman aka Wardlow's unofficial younger brother. 

Austin Titan vs Cody Rhodes For The United States Championship. 

Unfortunately, Rhodes couldn't wave the American flag like a good old hog as the United States champion as the bout ended via a DQ due to Sethy Rollings delivering a vicious beating to Cody Rhodes. 

While I wouldn't mind a rematch since both of their matches have been pretty good, I do think the feud (just like most of the rivalries showcased in this episode) needs an ending. 

Doudrop Wanted Nikki A.S.H To Take The Tag Team Championship Seriously. 

Why? Because Nikki's arrogance led to her and Doudrop's lost against the women's tag team champions, Naomi and Sasha Banks. 

Mustafa Ali vs Ciampa With Special Guest Referee, The Miz. 

Tomasso Ciampa is now just Ciampa which at best is WWE's mismanagement with names that don't need any changes and at worst, it's WWE hating on ethic POC names. 

Miz screwed Mustafa by fast counting which led to Ciampa's win. 


Both Dana Brooke and Tamina wanted to go through a divorce from their respective partners with the help of R Truth but that plan didn't go so well. Can that belt retire once and for all? 

Asuka vs Bianca Belair. 

A decent main event encounter. Of course, this ain't Monday Night RAW without a DQ finish and that's exactly how the match ended. 

The difference is that it made sense here because Asuka and Bianca shouldn't lose clean as one just came back while the other is the women's champion. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: RKBRO vs The Street Profits, Veer Mahaan, just Veer Mahaan. 

Didn't like: The show was a leftover.

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism Vol.2

Last spring, I wrote an article about how to critique pro wrestling better aka "a guide on how to improve wrestling criticism" . I got some positive takes on it but the question is, why did I produce the second edition?  Well, you have to thank the awful videos and articles that I, unfortunately, consumed but at least, I wrote down some notes that contained the number of bad critiques that I was passionately blasted down on.  Like I mentioned in last year's piece, I am just an average fan that doesn't claim to be an expert in any form of criticism because YouTube will definitely give you the "I'm right, you're wrong" type of content.  This is just a learning process for not only the viewers reading this but myself as we all are trying to get better.  Without further explanation, let's guide you  to a better critique in wrestling (at least I hope so) numbra dos.  #1. Focusing Too Much On Logic (and no, I'm not talking abou...

WWE Smackdown Live 24/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was once again, a good show that did its job to build some hype for WWE super showdown. Now usually on my reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad. However, I'm only gonna tell you what's good and what's ok for this review because I didn't find anything bad about this episode. Now let's talk wrestling, shall we?  WHAT'S GOOD The opening segment   Man, this opening segment was entertaining and I believe this is the first time since 2011 that R Truth has been featured a lot on WWE television. Look, I know some people who find the five-second dance break cringeworthy but I thought that was funny. That segment led to a match between The Miz and R Truth and if want to know my thoughts on the match itself then look below.  Rusev calls out Aiden English   Basically, this segment goes like this. Rusev calls out Aiden to explain himself for his actions last week. Aiden then comes out to the ring and...

WWE RAW 11/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show makes me wanna go home if I was an attendance of this show. In other words, RAW wasn't good and here's why.  Opening Segment.  The show started off with The Authority. A stable that I actually don't mind but that a different topic. Anyways, they run down the Elimination Chamber PPV card. After that, The Man Becky Lynch came out and Triple H said that he will lift the suspension if Becky apologizes to both him and Stephanie.    Becky then told Stephanie to shut her face and she refused to apologize. The segment ended with Hunter giving her two choices. Either Becky apologizes to them or Becky's WrestleMania match is off.  Compared to the segments on RAW and Smackdown last week, this was underwhelming.  Sasha and Bayley vs Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan vs Nia Jax and Tamina. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.  The match was fine. During the match, Bayley delivered two stunners on the ...
