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.

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.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
