Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far.

WWE Raw: Oct. 22, 2018









 WWE then issued a statement on this and here's what they have to say.

“Tonight on Monday Night Raw, Roman Reigns (aka Joe Anoa’i) announced that he is relinquishing the WWE Universal Championship and taking a leave of absence from WWE as he once again fights leukemia, which had been in remission since late 2008. Reigns is taking his battle with leukemia public in an effort to raise awareness and funds for research in order to advance cures for the disease.”

 What do I think of this? I hope and pray that Roman Reigns will recover from this and come back stronger than ever before. #ThankyouRoman

WWE Smackdown 20/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

Regarding the whole Naomi and Sasha Banks situation, WWE has (on top of saying that Banks and Naomi have disappointed the fans to which I say, "FACK OFF, WILL YA?!") relinquished the women's tag belts and they're going to have a tournament to which I say, "WHAT F**KING TEAMS!?" WWE has more women's tag teams than Arsenal has champions league titles.  As far as how I feel about the show, it was really mediocre, to say the least.   Roman Reigns Hypes Up The Usos In Purse Of The Tag Title Unification Match.  I'm just going to describe the main event match since it was pretty darn short. The Usos did just defeat RKBRO to win the red belts which led to a beatdown from the Bloodline to RKBRO.  While the 6 man match at Backlash was, dare I say, a match of the year candidate, this one was just too uneventful due to the sudden end of an okay match that could've been MUCH better.  Shinsuke Nakamura vs Sami Zayn.  I once remember that they had a match of th...

The 5 News Week Look-Back: Remember When Calvin Cambridge Wanted to WRESTLE!?

Another year, another look back at a year that started out like an anime filler arc and then suddenly, the month August came and we all know what happened from there.  While yes, I didn't get to rebrand this weekly news series as "THE 5 NEWS WEEK: UNCORKED"  or something which would've been a great thing if I pretended to have snitches throughout my "journalistic career". It was another year of dissecting the industry that gave you the Yeti, professional wrestling.  Remember The Time Calvin Cambridge Wanted To WRESTLE!?  Yes, he did and guess what, you literally forgot about that until I mentioned it, am I right?  According to the man behind his yippy yo yippy yay, his aim is to focus on the wrestling business as a performer after his last album drops. WWE Hall Of Famer and a real somon**ga, Rikishi, mentioned in an interview with Chris Van Vliet that Shad Moss came over to his wrestling school to train.  What makes the news particularly suspicious is that...

WWE RAW 3/12/18 | My Coherent Review

It's December everyone and RAW is still awful. Now usually on my reviews, I tell you what's good, what's okay and what's bad. For the first time since I started reviewing Monday Night RAW back in June, I'm going to put every segment and every match on what's bad for obvious reasons. Here we go.  WHAT'S BAD   The opening match of the night The purpose of an opening match is to build excitement for the rest of the show but this did the opposite. I appreciate WWE for going straight to a match instead of a boring, generic and downright formulaic (in a bad way) opening segment but the execution was pretty bad.  This was supposed to be a tag match between Ronda and Natalya vs Nia Jax and Tamina but instead, the Riott Squad came out and they put Natalya through a table on the outside.  Sasha Banks and Bayley vs Mickie James and Alicia Fox What can I say? This was a skippable match. Mickie was going for her DDT finish but ins...
