WWE Smackdown 8/7/22 | A Coherent Negative Review.

 1234, Smackdown on Fridays are still a bore (for the most part at least). 

Theory Messing With Roman Reigns After Paul Heyman's Promo. 

How long do you think that Theory will pull a Baron Corbin circa 2017? As far as the segment itself before the Money In The Bank winner showed up, it was fine. Nothing too noteworthy in my opinion. 

The Viking Raiders vs Shanky And Jinder Mahal. 

Like the opening segment, the match wasn't memorable (Viking Raiders defeating Shanky and Mahal with a double powerbomb) but their newfound aggression (by laying waste on The New Day) is something they should've had since their main roster debut a few years ago. 

I like it because the more I forget about the segments they had with The Street Profits, the better. 

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Ludwig Kaiser. 

A mostly one-sided match for the former IC champion and because of it, Nakamura defeated Kaiser with the Kinshasa. 

After the match, Gunther gave Kaiser some discipline by giving him multiple chops which honestly sounds like something Ric Flair would do to his protégés. 

"I Can Dream Of When You're Gonna Finally Shut Up," Says Natalya. 

I've heard better dialogue from watching Tommy Wiseau's The Room. 

Both Natalie, Ronda Rousey and Liv Morgan had a verbal back and forth which led to a Money In The Bank rematch between Rousey and the woman that splat out a bad line fed by the creative geniuses. 

And of course, Rousey won with an ankle lock. 

Max Dupri Shows Off His Maximum Male Clients' (Mansoor And Mace) Tennis Fit Collection. 

Coolinos. 

Lacey Evans Turns Heel. In Other News, Another MCU Film Is Coming. 

Coolinos. 

The Usos vs Los Lotharios. 

An okay match for what it was. The Usos won with the 1D to Humberto. 

Drew McIntyre vs Butch. 

Aka a match that was supposed to be Drew vs Sheamus but like the old man that every anti-smark hates for some reason (other than the concept of going outside), plans changed. 

Would you be surprised if I told you that McIntrye won here? 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: New Viking Raiders? Noice. 

Didn't like: Pretty much everything else.

Are Dirtsheets The Wrestling Version Of Tabloids?

A month ago, I was listening to the prince and the wolf podcast   with comedian Josh Wolf and actor/former WWE writer himself Freddie Prince Jr. In it, they had now seven-time women's champion Charlotte as their guest and she talked about life, how she got into professional wrestling but the most interesting part about this interview is that when Wolf asked: "what is dirtsheets?" Freddie replied by saying that it's basically tabloids. Is he wrong or is he right? Well, let's look at history.  Dirtsheets have spanned over 5 decades and it is still going strong to this very day and was given the name "Dirtsheets" to get "Inside dirt" in the wrestling business in a printed format or in a modern online site. Hence, the name dirtsheet.  The earliest form of dirtsheets was in the 60s where a woman by the name of Georgiann Makropoulos who herself started a monthly newsletter called "The Wrestling Chatterbox" after writing articles on wr...

WWE Money In The Bank 2021 | A Coherent Review

Last year's Money In The Bank show was one of my all-time favourites. You wanna know why?  It's because it ended in 2 hours and 10 minutes. As a guy with an intensive full-time job, that alone has to be the reason why 2020 MITB is a great show.  How did this year's show hold up? Well, it was quite simply, an enjoyable 3-hour program.  I had my so-called "money's worth" after watching this PPV.  Oh, and the Smackdown tag team championship match was aye okay.  Images via WWE.com   Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match.  You would think that Alexa Bliss would've won this match considering that she has voodoo powers, right?  But, I can't pull the "white dude that complains about logic in a subject piece of entertainment" because this match was probably one of the best multi-person ladder matches I've seen in quite some time.  Nikki A.S.H overcame the odds like a good superhero story would tell by winning the briefcase.  Given that she...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking).  However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?”  In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t.  There are fans out there on the interweb that b...
