WWE Smackdown 6/5/22 | A Coherent Review

 Yes, Wrestlemania Backlash is tomorrow and I couldn't care less about the show besides two guys battling out on who has the better suit game, Cody or Seth? 

And the episode reflected that in my humble opinion. 

A Ronda Rousey And Charlotte Flair Brawl. 

Headline once again doing God's work right now. I mean, at least Charlotte didn't do the typical heel thing and ran away from a fight, right? 

Shayna Baszler vs Sasha Banks. 

In my opinion, a Wrestlemania worthy match had Shayna Baszler been booked better on TV. 

After Sasha Banks defeated Shayna Baszler, Baszler and Nattie unsuccessfully attempted a beatdown on Banks and Naomi since the tag champs retaliated quickly with a double eat defeat to Natalya. Coolinos. 

Midcap Moss' Sad Attempt At Stand Up Comedy, You Know, Like Dave Chappelle. 

BOOM. GOT EM.

Gunther vs Drew Gulak. 

The "USA" chants aka the only time Drew Gulak actually got over accidentally. Slim fit Gunther wins with a powerbomb. 

Sheamus And Ridge Holland vs The New Day In A Tables Match. 

This match had no right to be this darn good because that slapped. Thanks to the mad oi bruf, Butch, Sheamus and Ridge Holland put Xavier Woods (a King Of The Ring winner, by the way) through a table. 


Speaking of "USA! USA!", Lacey Evans talks about her origins as a performer for the 5th week in a row. Unlike the previous weeks, she actually showed up in the area. Nothing screams USA quite like Evans' fit. 

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Sami Zayn. 

A 2016 match of the year now facing on a random episode of Smackdown starring a guy that acts like Randall Weems from Recess. And it ended with a count-out victory for Sami Zayn. Noice! 

The Bloodline, Drew McIntyre And RKBRO Came Face To Face.

The show started with a brawl and it ended with a brawl. WWE definitely took some notes from AEW. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Sheamus and Ridge Holland vs The New Day in a tables match. 

Didn't like: At least I didn't pull a "bearded white guy ranting about WWE that'll definitely have blood pressure in a few years" (Oh and Midcap Moss sucks as a comedian).

WWE Smackdown 17/12/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another meh episode of Smackdown although the ending was pretty eye-opening.  Images via WWE.com   The Viking Raiders vs Jinder Mahal And Shanky.  After a backstage segment that included The Usos roasting Xavier Woods' kingship, the blue brand really started the show with a match (not this one) which is a rare thing to see on main roster television. And the match wasn't bad at all.  The Viking Raider defeated the team of Jinder and Shanky with a splash from Ivor. Does everyone want a Happy Corbin segment? Well, no and Drew McIntyre agrees as he took out Corbin and Madcap Moss to retrieve his sword which sounds like a bad King Arthur comedy flick or something.  Naomi Wants A Match With Sonya Deville.  Naomi is upset at how Sonya Deville acted like a Susan over the past few months so the glow queen challenged the actual manager to a match at Day 1 and Sonya was like, "Ahhhh, no".  Naomi then had a match with Shayna Baszler and within minute...

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Chris Jericho Offers Moxley To Join Inner Circle, The Go-Home Show Before Dec 18th.

I thought the middle act of AEW Dynamite suffered some pacing issues even though it was overall a much stronger show than last week's episode.  The latest episode of NXT, however, has built a solid foundation on what's to come on December 18th. The main question is, which show do I like better? The answer is AEW.  NXT  Highlights. Angel Garza vs Lio Rush For The NXT Cruiserweight Championship.  Was this match better than their first encounter? Like Snoop Dogg's verse in Sasha Banks' theme song, "Hell yea". Garza slams Rush hard on the ring apron by pushing the champ. Moments later, Garza delivers the Spanish Fly and Rush kicked out of that.  As Rush hits the frog splash, the champ wanted to pull him back in the middle of the ring but instead, he ripped off Garza's pants (nice attention to detail).  Angel then hits the wind clipper but Lio kicked out which led to a wind clipper submission and the man of the hour tapped out which m...

NXT Takeover Phoenix | My Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover was a great show with great wrestling, energetic crowd and intriguing storytelling (OMG, REALLY? I didn’t know that).  War Raiders vs The Undisputed Era (Kyle O’ Reilly and Roderick Strong) for the NXT Tag Team Championship.  First off, cool entrance by War Raiders. Secondly, the match was entertaining. At one point, Strong did a superplex to Hanson. The match ended with War Raiders delivered the Fallout to Kyle O ‘Reilly and won the match. War Raiders are the new NXT Tag Team Champions deservedly so.  Matt Riddle vs Kassius Ohno. During the match, Ohno hit Riddle right on his mouth which absolutely looked brutal. Minutes after that, Riddle hits Ohno with series of elbow strikes which made Ohno tap out and won the match. A very unique finish but nevertheless, this was a decent match.  Johnny Gargano vs Ricochet for the NXT North American Championship.  Those guys put on the absolute clinic of a wrestling match. But that ending ...
