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.

WWE RAW 19/11/18 | My Coherent Review.

As usual, RAW was terrible. Why you ask? Well, I’m gonna tell you what’s good, what’s ok and what’s bad. However, this time it’s only what’s bad and what's okay because you know why. Here we go.  WHAT'S BAD The opening segment RAW starting off with a bland, boring, formulaic (in a bad way) and generic opening segment and the unfortunate thing is that this formula ain’t ending anytime soon. Now, they announced officially a match between Braun Strowman and Baron Corbin in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match but with one condition given to both participants of that match.  If Baron Corbin wins then he’s permanently the RAW general manager. If Braun Strowman wins then he’s facing Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble. Corbin then made a six-man tag match and Stephanie McMahon made it the opening match of this show and speaking of which……   WHAT’S OK Braun Strowman, Finn Balor and Elias vs Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and ...

WWE Smackdown Live 28/8/18 | My Coherent Review.

Overall, Smackdown Live was better than RAW in terms of having a somewhat good ending. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna give you what's good, what's ok and the bad parts about this show were none in my opinion. Without further ado, this is my coherent, honest review of this week's Smackdown Live.  WHAT'S GOOD    New day's celebration  You have the new day celebration with their interaction with booker T and the addition of the spinaroonie or the spinaroonie, in this case, was entertaining and an odd but amusing opening segment.  Daniel Bryan vs Andrade "Cien" almas   Daniel Bryan's promo with Brie Bella by his side was like the Naomi vs Billie Kay match, it was there. However, the match itself was pretty good in my opinion. That chop by almas looked brutal bro like damn. Daniel Bryan wins Via DQ by miz beating him, almas hitting the hammerlock DDT, Maryse hitting a brutal looking DDT to brie bella and then miz hitting the skull cru...

The 5 News Week: Is Rey Mysterio RETIRING!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  The IIconics SUPPOSED to APPEAR at The Women's Royal Rumble!?  Admittedly, this piece of news is a week and a half old but you may think it isn't all that bad.  Well, because of how the wrestling news cycle moves faster than an MCU Disney Plus show, this story might as well be 5,000 years old.  From Fightful Selectrinos , the current Impact knockouts tag team champions were offered to be part of this year's stinker that was the Royal Rumble show, more specifically the women's Royal Rumble match but they refused.  Mustafa Ali Has A YEAR LEFT In His CONTRACT!?  My man Mustafa Ali be begging for his WWE release like Oliver Twist (can't blame the guy, I guess).  And kinda bad news I guess for the talented ...
