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.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

The 5 News Week: WWE Backstage. Cancelled Or Nah?, Liv Morgan's Re-Debut Was Supposed To Be Different!?

I'm back on my BS because it's The 5 News Week where I report on the 5 major or minor news of the week hence the name "T he 5 News Week".  Sorry for the week of absence. I took a week off of social media (except YouTube) due to the sadness I felt when reading those brave women and men tell their stories about the awful, terrible experiences they've had after their interactions with notable people in the industry.  It made me question my fandom and whether I should be in the industry (wrestling media-wise) knowing that they are asshats that will take an advantage on people for no reason other than more power and control.  This week proves that the business needs to wash all the old tropes that make it harder for people to express what's really going on especially when it pertains  to serious issues like sexual assault, racism, sexism etc.  I'm hoping that those stories will lead to a sudden change in every aspect of this profession and other ...
