WWE Mae Young Classic S02 E01 | My Coherent Review.

Hello my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to my coherent and honest Mae young classic tournament review and overall this is a good hour of wrestling that made me feel I want more. 

 Before I talk about the matches, I want to give my quick thoughts on the commentary and It was a step up to last year's. Micheal Cole,  Renee Young and Beth Phoenix all did a great job in not only telling a story in the square circle but also filling the excitement and passion about this entire tournament and you can tell it just by listening to them. Anyways, on with the review. 

Tegan Nox vs Zatara

 Tegan nox was supposed to be in last year's mae young classic tournament but she tore her ACL. This is, in fact, a comeback story for nox (No shit, Omar). There was a point in the match where zatara told the fans to shut up which was funny in my opinion. Anyways, the overall match was decent. Zatara was aiming for nox's knee and did submissions that I don't know, to be honest. Tegan nox wins with the shining wizard 


Rhea Ripley vs MJ Jenkins

Since last year's mae young classic. Ripley had a completely gimmick/ attitude change. She went from an innocent girl next door type of character to a punk rock, no shits given attitude type of character which I actually like. This match was better than the opening match. During the match, Ripley hit a brutal looking dropkick to Jenkins that send Jenkins to the outside. Ripley wins with that pump handle powerbomb which looked amazing by the way. 


Lacey lane vs Vanessa Kraven

Right off the bat, Vanessa Kraven reminds me of Kevin thorn from the revived ECW brand. Feels like I’m burying her just by saying that. At one point, Kraven did a spinning sidewalk slam which looked good but that didn't get her to take the W because lacey lane wins with the crucifix bomb into a pin. Not a bad match. 


Killer Kelly vs Meiko Satomura

Killer Kelly by the way, looks like an actual killer. To be honest with you, this is my first time seeing Meiko wrestle in the ring and she impressed the crap outta me.  Not only this match was hard hitting but as well as the match of the night. My goodness, what a match. When Meiko did a back flop of some sort and hit killer Kelly's head just looked brutal. Not surprised if she got a concussion from that. Meiko wins with a death valley driver.  

 Well, I hope you enjoyed my take on the first round tournament of the mae young classic. Let me know what is your favourite match of that episode and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Chris Jericho Offers Moxley To Join Inner Circle, The Go-Home Show Before Dec 18th.

I thought the middle act of AEW Dynamite suffered some pacing issues even though it was overall a much stronger show than last week's episode.  The latest episode of NXT, however, has built a solid foundation on what's to come on December 18th. The main question is, which show do I like better? The answer is AEW.  NXT  Highlights. Angel Garza vs Lio Rush For The NXT Cruiserweight Championship.  Was this match better than their first encounter? Like Snoop Dogg's verse in Sasha Banks' theme song, "Hell yea". Garza slams Rush hard on the ring apron by pushing the champ. Moments later, Garza delivers the Spanish Fly and Rush kicked out of that.  As Rush hits the frog splash, the champ wanted to pull him back in the middle of the ring but instead, he ripped off Garza's pants (nice attention to detail).  Angel then hits the wind clipper but Lio kicked out which led to a wind clipper submission and the man of the hour tapped out which m...

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...

A Brief Guide To Pro Wrestling Websites.

So. You just become a fan of pro wrestling and have dabbled into the fandom for a bit (it's a mess ain't it?) You've just followed some news sites' social media platforms but aren't sure whether the articles they put out are accurate or not.  Well, you got the right guy to solve that problem if it's from a blog that barely gets any traction (that would be me in case you were confused).  The news we get from the medium that is pro wrestling is an integral part of the online space.  The reason being is that it's not only a great conversation starter but you could also learn something new today about the industry you love.  That doesn't mean that all of the news you see on the timeline is reliable.  I'm here to hopefully give you a guide to wrestling sites.  There are many wrestling websites out there but I wanna highlight some of the notable ones.  Okay? Here we go.  #1: Wrestling Observer Newsletter aka F4WOnline.  I can't talk about a guide t...
