A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

 Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess? 

Smackdown. 

The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k. 

The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself.
 
As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title.  

Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship. 

Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on Vine? Somehow someway, Roman would still get booed outta the building. 

One last thing to note here is FINALLY,  SHOTZI IS A BABYFACE AGAIN! It would be even better if they bought back her last name. But at least according to Fightful's snitch, She's getting her tank back. 

RAW

There were some distraction finishes that'll make Vince McMahon jealous. Still, as a whole, the episode feels like a direct continuation of last week's show with a few additional hints for what's about to come next week (Omar, you basically described the word continuity OG).

In other words, the show was aight, I guess. 

The thing I've learned from Bobby Lashley's US title match with Seth Rollins is that Lashley's back is strong as f**k and I don't know if Lashley's flexing that he can take back shots or not. 

Also, Babyface Prizefighter? Honestly, Better than heel prize fighter Kevin Owens but I'm probably reaching. 

Bayley getting her long-awaited rematch against Bianca Belair for the women's title? Noice (I know it's not the same belt but you get my point). 

She's come a long way since that awful "This is Your Life" segment with Alexa Bliss and speaking of which, they had a solid match. 

Why's Dexter Lumis stalking Miz instead of going on a honeymoon with Indi Hartwell? No idea. Probably begging for a cameo for Miz's reality that everybody watches. 


I know it's a different format but productivity sucks so I gotta change things up ya know?

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...

The 5 News Week: An NXT Segment Getting Some Backstage Praise!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  some pictures via WWE.com Stephanie McMahon One Of The Best Heels In The Attitude Era? Jim Ross Thinks So.  Jimmy Ross recently talked about the role Stephanie McMahon and whether she was "one of the best heels we had in the attitude era" (from sescoops ):  “I always believe she was one of the best heels that we had in the Attitude Era. Because she took so much after her dad.” Stephanie played as the spoiled rich daughter of an a*h*ole boss and that is a dish of easy heel heat.  Stephanie McMahon's spoiled brat type of heel moulded well with a vicious, opportunist of a bad guy that Triple H portrayed as during the era of the McMahon/Hemsley faction.  Without her constant presence on TV, A piece of Triple H's persona especially in the year 2000, would b...

The 5 News Week: What's Going On With Nia Jax As Of Late!?, Xavier Woods Talks About The Racial Injustice In The US.

Yes, The 5 New Week made its return after a 2-week hiatus and I wanna admit something to you guys.  Last year, I was really looking forward to 2020 and how unlike 2019, I'm actually going to maintain a schedule of articles I put out every week (which you can see the entire thing by clicking on the about page).  But, I certainly didn't and it really bothers me that I have to not publish an article due to personal life or a struggle with fighting against my mortal enemy, laziness. The inconsistencies of the articles I publish will continue and that's the sad part. Anywho, on with the news.  What's Going On With Nia Jax As Of Late!?  Last week, Fightful Select and Sean Ross Sapp stated that Kairi Sane was badly injured that involved a cut on her head during a match with Nia Jax.  Now, whenever the words " x wrestler injured " and " Nia Jax " are in the same sentence then you'll know the rest of the song.  Fast forward to this pas...
