WWE Smackdown 27/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

 Yes, people. Hell In A Cell is next Sunday (or Monday morning in my case) and this has been the least memorable build of a PPV I've ever covered. 

The question is, was this episode of Smackdown also the least memorable? I mean, yea. 

Shinsuke Nakamura And Riddle Go Against The Usos. 

Yea, the two guys that lost their tag partners due to injury are challenging The Usos for the unified tag belts and based on the brawl, it looks like Riddle and Nakamura will be facing The Usos which I don't mind. I mean, I did, unfortunately, see someone f**k a corpse.  

Ronda Rousey vs Raquel Rodriguez.

The match ended via a DQ due to Shayna Baszler and Natalya's attack on both competitors which led to a tag team match. 

Ah. The classic "singles match turned into a tag match". And guess who won? Rousey and Rodriguez. You know what that means? 

You're probably going to see the match between Raquel Rodriguez and Rona Rousey again and again and again (sprinkle in a heel turn from Rodriguez) to the point where you're gonna get sick of seeing them wrestle again.  

WWE loves taking an interesting concept and beating it to the ground. 

Jinder Mahal And Shanky vs Los Lotharios. 

Despite Shanky's kick to Angel after one-half of Los Lotharios gyrated to the ring announcer, Shanky's team lost the match with a springboard kick from Humberto to Jinder Mahal. 

After the match, Shanky told the modern-day maharajah to talk to the hand Maryse style. 

Who would've thought that with all of the theme song changes, Jinder has the best theme song in all of WWE? 


Max Dupri aka LA Knight aka Eli Drake is officially on Smackdown as per Adam Pearce. Damn, looking at this model recruiting gimmick, I'm sure Tyler Breeze is missing out. 

Sami Zayn And Kevin Owens Go Back And Forth On Who's A Moron And A Liar. 

What is this? A wrestling segment or every single interaction on Reddit? 

Ricochet And Drew Gulak vs Gunther And Ludwig Kaiser.

The babyface lost with a kick to Gulak's chest by Kaiser. 

Two years ago at Elimination Chamber, I remembered that Gulak had a fantastic match with Daniel Bryan. 

Now, he's eating pins like a good shake shack burger. 

The New Day And Drew McIntyre vs The Brawling Brutes In Sheamus, Butch And Ridge Holland.

You know this show has been really dry when The New Day's feud with Butch, Sheamus and Holland are main eventing an episode of WWE's other flagship show. 

Drew led The New Day to victory thanks to a claymore kick followed by an elbow drop from Xavier Woods to the big OI bruf. Meh. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Because the show's dryer than Ashy Larry from the Chappelle Show, there's nothing about the episode I genuinely liked. 

Didn't like: The classic cliches are running wild, a reminder that Drew Gulak (A fantastic wrestler) is underutilized.

My Coherent Predictions On: Money In The Bank 2018

Money in the bank has THE WORST buildup of 2018 so far (at least on the RAW side). Is it going to be worst than RAW this past few weeks or possibly backlash?  Will find out this Sunday but anyways on with the predictions Sami Zayn vs Bobby Lashley What can I say about this feud? ● No meaning behind it. ● No meaning behind it. ● And why's Bobby Lashley promo last night sounds like bubbles from powerpuff  or something? Nevertheless, It's a shame that both lashley and zayn are given a shitstorm of a storyline considering that their better than this. WINNER : Bobby Lashley. Bludgeon Brothers vs Luke Gallows And Karl Anderson WOW! Another match I don't give two fucks about. However if they want to make the show intriguing and unpredictable then I'll put the belts on....   WINNER: Gallows and Anderson. Big Cass vs Daniel Bryan. WWE made the right call in my opinion on moving big Cass to smackdown because he...

WWE Survivor Series 2019 | My Coherent Review.

The Survivor Series shows as of a few years has gotten better in terms of overall positives and I thought that this year will be no exception. It pains me to say this but the 2019 edition of Survivor Series was just okay. A few highlights but overall, not an offensive 3 ½ hours of wrestling to watch, to say the least. Oh, and I haven't seen the pre-show matches so I can't talk about it.  Team RAW In Kabuki Warriors, Charlotte Flair, Natalya And Sarah Logan vs Team Smackdown In Nikki Cross, Dana Brooke, Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans And Sasha Banks vs Team NXT In Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai And Toni Storm. Women's Survivor Series Match.  Io Shirai and Kairi Sane delivered some quick moves earlier in the match. Brooke delivered an impressive rolling Senton to Shirai. Given that LeRae and Io were hurt, they were both eliminated. Bianca Belair got rid of two women.  One, it was Nikki Cross with a roll-up and the other was Sarah Logan with a 450...

WWE NXT 24/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a meh episode of NXT. If this is the first time that somebody watches NXT with this episode then you'll have a hard time convincing that particular person to watch another episode you know what I mean?  The Forgotten Sons’ Jaxson Ryker vs Humberto Carrillo.  I don't watch 205 live but I'm loving every time Humberto wrestles. The match ended in a double count out because Ryker was beating the crap out of Carrillo until Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan showed up to save the young luchador. Not a fan of the Forgotten Sons but this feud for some reason made me wanna watch those two teams fight and I don't know why exactly.  After that, Adam Cole was asked backstage in a photo shoot about the Roderick Strong vs Johnny Gargano match until Matt Riddle showed up and said that it's his turn which led to Adam Cole leaving the shoot.  Aliyah and Vanessa Bourne vs Candice LeRae and Kacy Catanzaro.  This was okay. The team of Candice LeRae and Kacy Cat...
