WWE RAW 20/6/22 | A Coherent Review.


RAW was okay. That's it. That's the intro. 

Bianca Belair vs Rhea Ripley for the red women's belt ain't happening!? 

The reason being is that Rhea Ripley isn't medically cleared to compete so a fatal five-way number one contender's match was set up to determine the new number one contender (spoilers, it's Carmella). 

A decision I do not mind or flat out hate.  My 1 and a half viewers will know that I've been critical of WWE's series of rematches but considering it was one of the best matches of the year (yes, I'm talking about Bianca Belair vs Becky Lynch), why not run it back one more time? 

Riddle vs Omos. Money In The Bank Qualifying Match. 

Y'all are about to be so surprised when I tell you that Omos won a match again. 

Omos wins with the double chokeslam to qualify for the Money In The Bank ladder match. 

Seth Rollins showed up (used the "forehead loser sign" like every uncle in the 90s to Riddle), stated that he'll be the next Money In Bank briefcase winner and gave Riddle the good old stomp. Nice! 

Yay! Another Meaningless Vince McMahon Segment. 

Vince was just hyping up John Cena and I gotta ask, for why? 

Yay! Another Pose Down From Austin "Attack On Titan" Theory. 

Luckily, Bob Lashley ruined the whole segment by getting rid of Titan. Cool. 

Angelo Dawkins vs Jey Uso. 

A decent match for what it was. Despite the vicious super-kick Dawkins took, the former RAW tag team champion was still able to defeat Jey Uso with the Low Down. 

Kevin Owens Is Still CONVINCED That Ezekiel Is Elias Even After The Elias And Ezekiel Backstage Segment. 

The worst part about this segment was that Kevin believes that being French Canadian correlates with intelligence. 

Elias gave Owens a beating because why not, right? All jokes aside, it's great to see Elias after a 9 or so month hiatus. 

Bobby Lashley Against Alpha Academy And Titan Theory. 

No, it isn't a handicap match but rather a gauntlet match (how 2019 of you, WWE). And after what it feels like an eternity, Lashley emerged victorious even with the odds stacked against him. 

AJ Styles Called "A Failure" By Miz On Miz TV. 

Styles responded that minutes later with a strike using the mic to The Miz. Styles then had a match with Ciampa and successfully defeated the former 2-time NXT champion with a phenomenal forearm (literally a Wrestlemania-worthy match). 

Sucks that Ciampa is replacing the role of Finn Balor in being kinda there. 

After that, Miz failed in his attack on Styles and instead, he ate a styles clash. 


Veer Mahaan proves once again in an interview with Kevin Patrick that he is indeed an Indian Gigachad. 

Asuka vs Becky Lynch. Money In The Bank Qualifying Match.

Hey look, a good match. Asuka defeated Becky Lynch to win the match and qualify for the Money In The Bank ladder match. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Asuka vs Becky Lynch, chad Veer Mahaan.  

Didn't like: Vince McMahon, a whole lotta meh, Ciampa replaced the role of Balor as being kinda there.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Three Big Returns, A Great Inaugural Women's Championship Match.

If you have been a fan of this site since January, then you'll know that I've completely rebooted my review process and now, I'm doing that again.  Don't worry, the format for my RAW, Smackdown and PPV reviews will still be the same but not on Wednesdays. So, here it is, My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays.  NXT The Highlights. Adam Cole vs Matt Riddle For The NXT Championship.  A match that opened this episode of the yellow brand, the original bro and the leader of The Undisputed Era tore the house down.  Whether it's Cole reversing the fireman's carry from Riddle into a backstabber, Cole hitting a Panama sunrise twice, a floating bro or the crowd chanting "Adam Cole, bro", it was a visual statement by NXT that the yellow brand is THE brand to watch.  Unfortunately,  Riddle felt short and ate the last shot but there was another highlight I wanna talk about….. Finn Balor Returns To N. X. T.  It's not a typo my friends, Finn ...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With MLW's Myron Reed, Quick Thoughts On Smackdown.

A rare Saturday edition of 5 news week but if you're new here, I publish this weekly news article every Sunday and the format goes like this.  I report on 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately and I put them in one post.  Yes, there was a lot of news that dropped in a single day but since I'm posting this on Saturday morning, the 4 news this week is before Friday.  Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With MLW's Myron Reed.   via MLW Myron Reed has been in the pro wrestling scene since 2016 and picked up an impressive portfolio for himself.  Reed worked with current stars like AJ Gray, NXT's Joaquin Wilde, Matt Cross aka Son Of Havoc, AEW's The Lucha Brothers, Best Friends, and a whole lot more. via MLW So, I asked Reed about his time in OVW and whether being a tag team wrestler was the goal or not?  "Actually, I started in a small town called Central City (In Kentucky...

WWE Smackdown 14/2/20 | My Coherent Review.

Last night was my 2nd anniversary of pumping out written content on this site and I thought since this show has delivered 6 or sometimes 3 out of 10s for 4 months now, I've written some lyrics about my thoughts on Smackdown in the style of the current song opening for the blue brand.  If you wanna put the instrumental version of ACDC's Are You Ready while reading this then that's cool too.  *Cue the intro* Are you Ready?  Are you ready for mediocrity! Then, get ready for disappointment.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.   Even Bischoff.  Are you ready for mediocrity! *ends with some guitar solos*.  The lyrics may suck but it is at least better than whatever the hell Justin Bieber meant when he sang his current single "Yummy".  Now, on with the review. The Return Of A Moment Of Bliss (Unlike The Return Of The Dirt Sheets, Nobody Really Cares).  Both Bliss...
