WWE RAW 6/6/22 | A Coherent Review

Hell In A Cell was surprisingly a good PPV mainly because it didn't go for two hours after seeing 2 matches. 

As far as Monday Night RAW is concerned, it was surprisingly prettay, prettay, pretty good.  

Also, some guy named John Felix Anthony is coming to RAW in a few weeks. Don't know why exactly but we'll find out soon. 

SETH ROLLINS ATTACKS A WHITE ALLY IN 4K. 

Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame. This was an acceptable way to write off Cody Rhodes so I'm hoping for a speedy recovery from the American nightmare. 

I will say, the main event scene for the men is looking as empty as the movie theatre after Morbius' re-release. 

I'm hoping WWE has somewhat of a decent plan to counteract that but I highly doubt that. 

Becky Lynch is sick of the 24/7 championship stuff. 

Becky hates that division so badly, that she faced Dana Brooke in a match and lost thanks to Asuka holding one of Becky's legs so that Brooke goes for the quick pinfall victory. 

It made sense here so I ain't mad at the distraction finish. 

Riddle interrupts a Miz And Ms season premiere celebration. 

This led to a match between Riddal and The Miz and it was fine. No shocker, Riddle wins

The Street Profits vs The Usos. 

An awesome tag team affair and the best part, is we're probably going to see a rematch seeing that The Street Profits won the whole thing via a count-out. 

Theory isn't buying the whole championship match between himself and Bob Lashley. 

A white person not giving a black person an opportunity!? That's crazy bruh. Tell me more. 

Also, Titan shouldn't flex his muscles like that because Bob Lashley's biceps are so big, it'll literally save me from a nuclear bomb.

Nothing and I mean NOTHING will stop the Indian Gigachad. Not even Eddie Guerrero. 

That statement is true since the match ended with a DQ due to the fact that Rey gave Veer some kicks but that, of course, didn't put Veer down because he's 100% that based. 

Edge is a babyface now!? 

It turns out that Finn Balor joined the Judgment Day stable and then, he (as well as Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest), turned on their leader. 

This is what happens when you're dressing like a conservative talk show host. 

Yes, that turn was straight out of a Vince Russo written segment from a 1999 episode of RAW  but it is finally some time that the creative Gods gave Finn some *drum roll* edge. 

Omos vs Cedric Alexander.

If you see the name "Cedric Alexander" in the headline, you know what happens. Omos wins with the double chokeslam. 

Oh, and Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode returned and messed with the Nigerian Giant Gonzalez. Cool. 

Ezekiel revealed something interesting after defeating Otis. 

And that is, Ezekiel is indeed Elias………….. Nah, that was a swerve as he lied to Owens so that he can get his rematch against Owens next week.

Smart guy. I wonder where he learned that from? 

Alexa Bliss vs Liv Morgan vs Doudrop vs Rhea Ripley. Winner Faces Bianca Belair For The Red Women's Belt At Money In The Bank. 

A solid fatal four-way main event match, Playas. My preference choice was Rhea Ripley if I had to choose the winner of the bout and I'm happy with my decision.

It's been a match I've been looking forward to ever since they were the final two in last year's Royal Rumble match. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Smart man Ezekiel, The Street Profits vs The Usos, reminder that Veer Mahaan rules, Finn getting some edge. 

Didn't like: Also a reminder that the name Dirty Dogz f'ing sucks

WWE Smackdown Live 10/7/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was a bad show that did nothing as a wrestling fan to gain any excitement for extreme rules. Why you ask? Well i'm gonna give you what's good. No scratch that, i'm gonna give you what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. WHAT'S OK The opening segment and the brawl after that The opening segment was meh. And the brawl after that was fine. Didn't make me go "OHHHHHHHHHHH" or anything like along those lines. That brawl leads to a TEN MAN TAG TEAM match (Ummmmmm no shit omar). I will say this, the segment kinda teased the fact that maybe kane will turn on his best friend? I don't know. Should be interesting.  Andrade "cien" almas vs Sin cara The match was surprisingly decent. At one point andrade delivered a devastating stomp to sin cara on the ring apron. Andrade wins with a running knee to sin cara on the middle rope. Hoping andrade can move on to bigger and better things.  WHAT'S BAD ...

Should Dave Meltzer Get Rid Of His Rating System?

So a few weeks ago, good old Dave Meltzer of the wrestling observer newsletter gave the Kazuchika Okada vs Kenny omega match at dominion 2018 a 7-star rating. According to the interent wrestling database , this match is by far his HIGHEST match rating ever (i don't blame him because the match was amazing). So statistically, this is his favourite match of all time . Now, why I'm writing this now?  Well, his best match ratings have been a consistent 5 stars since 1983 with the exception of all the Omega vs Okada matches and the Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada match at AJPW's Budokan hall show in June of 1994.  There are fans that take his match ratings as an offence somehow like "Why he rates X match better than Y match?" or thinks that he "hates" WWE which is ridiculous considering that he gave three WWE matches a 5 star ratings just this past year. One was the ladder match to crown the first ever NXT North American champion, the Johnny Garga...

The Obsession With Ratings. Warranted Or Not?

(Just a bit of a heads-up, this article contains a lot of the word "ratings").  Rating. Rating. Rating. It is a word that you see or hear many times throughout your wrestling fandom but why is that?  Well, it's interesting to see how your weekly consumption does by the numbers every week.  However, that conversation can turn the other way.  The toxic, " logic-filled" , gatekeeping way that is (you see why I muted the word "rating" on Twitter?).  Fans have been talking about TV ratings for years but that discussion has skyrocketed once AEW Dynamite and NXT airs on the same night every week ya know because wrestling fans am I right?  Before I answer the question of whether the obsession with TV ratings is warranted or not, I'll first have to briefly describe the Nielsen rating (which is an American TV rating system. No sh*t, Omar).  A Summary Of The History Of The Nielsen Ratings.  The Nielsen rating system was introduced...
