ALL IN 2018 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to my first ever wrestling review outside of the WWE called ALL IN. One of the most anticipated PPV of this year. At least to me at any rate. Did it live up to the anticipation? I would say yes. Without further ado, here's my coherent, honest review of ALL IN. 


Matt Cross vs MJF 

I missed most of that match because I was in the bathroom but I did can the closing end of the match and it was fine for what it was.  Matt cross with this match and MJF looks and screams a prick, asshole type heel (No shit, omar). 


Christopher Daniels vs Stephen Amell


Good match. Early in the match, Amell delivered a dropkick which looked good. During the match, Amell hit a coast to coast that made Shane McMahon proud. Christopher Daniels then hit a moonsault but it barely connected. 

Stephen Amell then tried to hit the elbow drop on Daniels through the table but hit himself instead through the table. 

The match ends with Christopher Daniels delivering a moonsault to Amell to win this match. Again, good match and Amell looked good in this and I wanna see more of him, to be honest. 


Tessa Blanchard vs Chelsea Green vs Madison Rayne vs Britt Baker

That was an entertaining match. Tessa was the MVP of that match. During the match, Madison Rayne did a crossbody to the entire participants of that match. Then Britt baker went on a series of sling blades. 

Chelsea green hit the woo kick made famous by her boyfriend Zach Ryder. The match ends with Tessa hitting the hammerlock DDT to green to win the match. 

This match was so great that I'm watching that match on repeat. 
WWE would be clueless if they didn't sign Blanchard.  


Cody vs Nick Aldis for the NWA Heavyweight championship


Cody's entrance was a great thing to watch with the addition of his dog. The match itself was solid. 

At one point, Cody hit a beautiful suicide dive. Earl Hebner gave the X sign. After that, Sean Davari basically disrespected Cody with that shove and then DDP delivered the diamond cutter to Davari to even the odds. At this point, Cody was heavily bleeding. 

Cody Rhodes tried to hit the Alabama slam but was unsuccessful because of the injured back and then Cody was in the Alabama slam position and gave a quick spin to only then successfully hit the Alabama Slam.  

Aldis hit the elbow drop on Brandi to protect her beaten down husband to the chants of "asshole" which was funny. The match ends with Cody hitting the sunset flip to quickly pin and win the match and the NWA Heavyweight championship. Congrats to Cody on his win.  


Hangman Page vs Joey Janela 


One of the highlights of that was page hitting a moonsault to joey. Now thinking about it, almost every match at one point hit a moonsault. 

Page hit a fallaway slam to joey on the steel chair which looked brutal. Joey then rolls up the cracker barrel like that snes donkey Kong game. 

Joey then hit the death valley driver to page on the middle rope. 

After that page put joey on the ladder with that fireman's carry move that I don't know. Penelope was hammering on page and then joey hit the splash to page on the table. 

Then on the stage page hit a running powerbomb to joey through the table. The match ends with page hitting Joey with that landline phone and delivered the hidden passage on joey through the table to win this match. 

Chaotic match and is it me being obvious or is it that the people with the penis costumes carrying page remind me when the undertaker used to carry his opponents or something like that? 


Jay Lethal vs Flip Gordon for the ROH world championship. 

First off, nice to see black machismo. Second, the match was fine. Gordon at one point multiple suicide dives to Lethal. 

Lethal hit I believe it was three elbow drops and then Gordon channelling his inner Hulk Hogan to gain momentum of course. Lethal wins the match with the modified cutter. 

After the match, both competitors hug it out and then outta nowhere bully ray came out with clotheslining both men. Colt Cabana comes out to save them and then hit the triple powerbomb on bully ray on the table. 


Pentagon jr vs Kenny Omega  

A very, very, very good match. Kenny is so quick with his moves like the dragon suplex or the death valley driver he gave. At one match, Pentagon hit the package piledriver and Kenny sold it like a pro shout out to him. Kenny then hit the package piledriver of his own to a close near fall. 

The match ends with Kenny hitting the v trigger and the Omega hitting the one winged angel to win this match. After the match, he got his ass kicked by Pentagon jr, unmasks himself and it was revealed it was Chris Jericho which I was surprised. Shout out to Chris Jericho for that shocking reveal. When was the last I ever saw a moment like this? A long time is all I'll say. 


Mary Scrull vs kazuchika Okada 

Started out slow but it picked up very well because that was match of the night in my opinion. That DDT from Okada head first on the outside looked devastating. Okada wins with the double beautiful rainmakers. Again what a match. I'm definitely watching that match on repeat. 


Kota Ibushi and The young bucks vs Fenix, Bandido, Rey Mysterio. 


And your main event of a four-hour show. That interaction with Ibushi and Mysterio gave me some goosebumps. 

One of the highlights of that match was Matt Jackson of the young bucks hitting the cannonball to pretty much everybody in this match. The golden elite wins with the 5 star meltzer driver. Not the way I would've ended that show but it was a fun match nevertheless. 

Sounds off in the comments on what do you think about ALL IN and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 19/11/18 | My Coherent Review.

As usual, RAW was terrible. Why you ask? Well, I’m gonna tell you what’s good, what’s ok and what’s bad. However, this time it’s only what’s bad and what's okay because you know why. Here we go.  WHAT'S BAD The opening segment RAW starting off with a bland, boring, formulaic (in a bad way) and generic opening segment and the unfortunate thing is that this formula ain’t ending anytime soon. Now, they announced officially a match between Braun Strowman and Baron Corbin in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match but with one condition given to both participants of that match.  If Baron Corbin wins then he’s permanently the RAW general manager. If Braun Strowman wins then he’s facing Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble. Corbin then made a six-man tag match and Stephanie McMahon made it the opening match of this show and speaking of which……   WHAT’S OK Braun Strowman, Finn Balor and Elias vs Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and ...

The 5 News Week: Is Rey Mysterio RETIRING!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  The IIconics SUPPOSED to APPEAR at The Women's Royal Rumble!?  Admittedly, this piece of news is a week and a half old but you may think it isn't all that bad.  Well, because of how the wrestling news cycle moves faster than an MCU Disney Plus show, this story might as well be 5,000 years old.  From Fightful Selectrinos , the current Impact knockouts tag team champions were offered to be part of this year's stinker that was the Royal Rumble show, more specifically the women's Royal Rumble match but they refused.  Mustafa Ali Has A YEAR LEFT In His CONTRACT!?  My man Mustafa Ali be begging for his WWE release like Oliver Twist (can't blame the guy, I guess).  And kinda bad news I guess for the talented ...

How Naomi's Royal Rumble 2020 Return SHOOK Black Twitter.

If you haven't been watching WWE for 10+ years, well first off, why are you here and secondly, can I be like you because I'm jealous?  Let me recap who Naomi is. She is a wrestler, actor, dancer, singer and a former women's champion who's been with WWE for 10 years.  In other words, Naomi is a future EGOT winner and you cannot tell me otherwise.  Thanks to her persona that resonated with the audience whether as a heel or a babyface, she has built up a following that is "ride or die" for the former funkadactyl aka stans which I am a part of.  Why? Because if there's one thing I have in common with Stan Twitter is that we love to call white people "ageing at the speed of crack".  She may be throwing glow sticks like an early 2010s Ellie Goulding music video, but she's a capable talent that can hang with the best of the best.  But, you read the title. This ain't about a career retrospect about Naomi (although I don't mind doing so), but ...
