The 5 News Week: Samoa Joe Is Injured According to Reports, A Wyatt Family Reunion?, Alicia Fox Replacing Bliss At Evolution.

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. 

Samoa Joe Is Injured According to Reports

Unfortunately, Samoa Joe is reportedly injured according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter with an unspecified injury. It could be a minor injury but given how he has been injured at the right time of his big break before, it could also be a major injury. This is a developing story as of right now and I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery. 

A Wyatt Family Reunion? 

Wow, another story reported by the Wrestling Observer. Who knew? Anyways according to them, WWE creative pitched an idea for Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper to reunite on TV. They haven't specified on which brand they're going to reunite on but it is interesting. 

Alicia Fox To Replace Alexa Bliss At Evolution Tomorrow 

As you know, a tag match was announced between Alexa Bliss and Mickie James vs Trish Stratus and Lita at evolution. However, Bliss will, unfortunately, miss that match due to a concussion at a live event which was first reported by Wrestlingnews.co but it was later confirmed by WWE.com and will be replaced by Alicia Fox instead. Like Samoa Joe's story, I wish Bliss nothing but a speedy recovery. 

Matt Hardy On Being A Successful Pro Wrestler 

Matt recently did an interview with culturacolectiva.com over at Mexico and talked about a variety of topics but the most interesting about that interview is on being a successful professional wrestler and here's what he had to say:

 “I think in this day and age it’s really important to evolve and to change—now more than ever. Simply because the fans have such powerful voices today, and they are more relevant, since everyone can have their say. People also have a short attention span in 2018, things move so fast. As a wrestling character or persona, I think it’s your responsibility to constantly change. That’s the only way you can become “hot” or do something good. That’s where I’m at now: I’m getting ready to evolve and get to the next stage.”

I mean this is how guys like the Undertaker and Chris Jericho became relevant today simply by evolving their personas on WWE TV and to that I completely agree with him. 

Jim Ross To Undergo Surgery On Skin Cancer

And finally, Jim Ross has revealed on his Ross Report podcast (which I love by the way) that he's going to have surgery on his shoulder to remove some skin cancer on Thursday. Here's the full quote from him:

"I'm getting a little cancer surgery on Thursday. I'm having some more skin cancer removed from my shoulder. There's just a little of it left, but you want to get all of it. I'm getting that cut out on Thursday."

That really sucks that he has skin cancer on his shoulder and I hope he gets rid of it once and for all. 

Well, I hope you're caught up with the news and let me know your thoughts on the news I just reported and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter. Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston.  Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway.  A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking.  What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa.  Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down.  It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac. I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out?  Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of ...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: The Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Is Here, A Fantastic TNT Championship Match.

AEW’s New Year’s Smash night 2 is not a bad show. However, it wasn’t enough to be the better show of the night because NXT DELIVERED in my opinion. The main reason?  Well, it was, of course, the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. NXT’s (or WWE for that matter) biggest weakness is their tag team division so It’s nice to see some showcase of diverse teams.  I’m hoping they keep that momentum after the tournament but we shall see.  some images via WWE.com NXT   Highlights.  A Possible Finn Balor vs Pete Dunne Bout!?  The reason why I wrote that headline above is that they had a bit of verbal interaction in the segment following the LeRae and Blackheart match which led to a brawl between Balor, Dunne, Lorcan and Burch, Kylie O'Reilly and his UE members.  I'm not gonna lie, if this is where Finn's championship goes from here, I'm all in.  Grizzled Young Veterans vs Ever-Rise. Dusty Tag Team Classic Tournament. The Grizzled Young Veterans advanced to t...

WWE RAW 5/10/20 | A Coherent Review.

I have not said this in a RAW review in a very long time but the show as a whole was straight up dogsh*t awful.  It's so bad that I didn't like one ounce about this program.  pictures via wwe.com Randy Orton Remembers His Match At Clash Of Champions.  The show started off with Randy Orton recalling certain aspects about the WWE championship match at Clash Of Champions.  Orton goes on to say that Drew doesn't deserve the championship because the legends interfered in the ambulance match.  The promo ended with Orton bringing up the fact that he beat up four legends last week on RAW (again, explain the physics behind this?).  Drew showed up and he laid waste on the guy.  Randy has been quite exceptional in the dialogue department but this ain't it.  The promo actually put me to sleep and the show didn't even hit 10 minutes up until that point.  If they suddenly end the rivalry like nothing happened, while it doesn't make sense, I'm all for it be...
