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.

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

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. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

WWE Wrestlemania 36 Night One | A Coherent Review.

When they announced that Wrestlemania was going to take place in two nights, I was hesitant mainly because I prefer a single show with meaningful matches and not the exact opposite spanned between two shows.  So far, the wrestling Gods proved me wrong. Wrestlemania 36 Night número uno was a great show. WWE gave me an escape that is desperately needed especially in this unique circumstance and I'm sure some of you guys feel this way too. As a tradition on this site, I haven’t seen the pre-show match so I can’t talk about it. Now, on with the review.  Before the show, Stephanie McMahon stated the usual thing. You know "in these times, we will entertain you". They then had the compilation of all the singers that sang America the beautiful which is actually pretty cool.  That led to this year's pirate-themed Wrestlemania opening and it was unique obviously but what makes it different is the humour in it which was fine.  The Kabuki Warriors vs Alexa Bliss And Ni...

The 5 News Week: Master P Buying House Of Glory!?, NXT TV To Air In Different Arenas!?

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 . Sorry for not posting in two days. Just some personal stuff I gotta deal with and my Coherent Wednesdays review was a bit rushed and I want to nail it in a no pun intended, coherent matter if that makes any sense? Hopefully, my reviews will get better in the coming weeks.  Master P Buying House Of Glory!?  A great example of human beings having an unpredictable nature to them (ask Vince McMahon), Master P was interviewed somewhere in Manhattan and he announced that he has brought an independent wrestling promotion based in New York called House Of Glory or HOG which was founded by Brian XL and Impact Alumni Amazing Red in 2014.  PWInsider and Mike Johnson gave an update to this story stating that Master P will deliver the "muscle and production team" goi...
