WWE Mae Young Classic S02 E04 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow and welcome to my coherent review for the Mae Young Classic tournament and another week, another week of a great hour of professional wrestling and here's why. 


Rachel Evers vs Kiroyo Matsumoto

Right off the bat, Evers got a standing ovation considering that she had a very good first impression in last year's mae young classic. The match was good. One of my favourites moments of that match was Kiroyo delivered a brutal missile dropkick to Evers. Kiroyo Matsumoto won that match with a jackknife powerbomb followed by a back suplex that she calls it "the rock drop". 


Taynara Conti vs Jessie Elabain

I would describe her character as an energetic but also homesick if that makes sense? There was a point in the match where Jessie delivered a forearm to Conti and then immediately Conti shouted "Are you CRAZY?" which was hilarious but that didn't stop her from winning this match. Taynara Conti won with a spinning belly to belly slam. 


Nicole Matthews vs Isla Dawn

Isla Dawn reminds me of that vampire from season 4, episode one of Buffy the vampire slayer but the match was fine. The match ends with Matthews delivering a clothesline followed by a liontamer that Chris Jericho used. 


Io Shirai vs Xia Brookside

The final first round match of the mae young classic with two impressive competitors in Brookside and Shirai but was it good though? No, because if anything, that was a showcase match for those who are not familiar with Io Shirai. She won with a beautiful moonsault. 


Overall, the first round tournament was fantastic and a great way to show what the women's evolution is all about. Thanks for reading this and let me know what do think about the first round of the mae young classic in the comments below. Follow the blog for honest pro wrestling and stay safe smarks.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
