The 5 News Week: JBL Doesn't Like Cody Rhodes All That Much I Think?, Aleister Blank Going To The Main Roster Soon?

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. 

JBL Doesn't Like Cody Rhodes All That Much I Think?

JBL, you know the guy that blocks half of the universe on Twitter said some crappy things about Cody Rhodes and also mentioned Cody's late father, Dusty Rhodes via a series of tweets while he was celebrating his 52nd birthday and watching an NFL game. Now, the tweets of Cody himself are still up as of me writing this but he has since deleted the tweets that mentioned Dusty and apologised and here's what JBL had to say: 










 An Update To The AEW Wrestling Story 

Speaking of Cody Rhodes, he actually acknowledged the speculations of a new promotion called AEW Wrestling during a meet in greet in Melbourne, Australia. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter and Dave Meltzer, Cody said that fans will have to wait for a big announcement in January. 

The Young Bucks addressed the trademarks that were filled in the new episode of Wrestling Perspective Podcast with IMPACT star Petey Williams and stated that they filled it in order to protect themselves in case they wanna do something with it. Nick Jackson mentioned that they haven't said no to anything but their options (referring to the offers that were given by major wrestling promotions according to them) are open. 

Enzo Amore’s Songs Has Less Than 2,500 Streams On Spotify 

This news doesn't really come to a surprise considering that his concert had less than 35 people in attendance according to Bodyslam.net. Now going with "Real1", his album got less than 2,500 streams on Spotify. Oh, by the way, His album didn't even sell 10,000 copies. Let's just say that his album flopped. 

Aleister Black Going To The Main Roster Soon?

According to The Wrestling Observer Radio and Dave Meltzer, Dave basically stated that he "keeps hearing" of Black's promotion (demotion as I like to call it) to the main roster but hasn't mentioned when. Will see whether he's a victim of bad booking or not once he's in the main roster. 

WWE Can Buy and Shut Down UK Promotions Reportedly Of Course. 

WWE has a great partnership with UK promotions such as ICW, PROGRESS and WXW. Hence, having their NXT UK talent perform only in those promotions per Wrestletalk. Good old Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that even though WWE would cost them "high six figures" to purchase UK promotions, WWE can buy and shut down UK promotions at any time for several years. 

If they actually implement that then WWE are killing competition which means no tension and no innovation. If it wasn't for competition then WWE would've not survived the Monday Night War in my opinion. 

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.

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...

Escape The Undertaker | A Short Coherent Review.

The internet. The only place where your YouTube recommended is filled with "I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT'S PG".  It is also home to Netflix which released an interactive movie produced by future Raspberry award-winning movie studio, WWE films. Look, the idea of 3 black dudes being trapped inside a house by a white conservative dead hog, is offensive and by that description alone, you weren't sure for a sec whether you were watching Netflix or the Daily Wire.  Luckily, there wasn't a cameo from Tessa Blanchard so you should be fine.  As a fan of Mass Effect 2, I love some dialogue trees that alter the events of a movie/game.  And, from a functionality standpoint, it is a technical marvel how it gives the audience the illusion of choice (you know, like our current economic system).  I say "illusion" because therein lies the main problem I have with the film. Your choices don't matter here. Even in a WWE movie, they're still trying to avoid the fan...

WWE Smackdown Live 11/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall a good show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.  WHAT'S GOOD Jeff Hardy vs Shinsuke Nakamura The promo before this was okay however that was a goooood match. Better than their in counter at SummerSlam. Jeff was about to beat Nakamura, however, randy outta nowhere pushes hardy on the outside hence Nakamura retains the championship and Jeff wins via DQ. They had a brawl that was better than the brawl last night on RAW I'll tell you that much.  Samoa Joe telling a bedtime story in a good not boring way.   I thought from the editing to the design of the book to the way Samoa Joe express the story was fantastic. The thing I LOVE about this is that it's a outside in the box type of promo package that worked. Man, I can't wait for this match. On Sunday night when the PPV airs, I think I'm gonna call my local "WENDYYYS" (My goodness that was awfu...
