WWE NXT 16/1/19 | My Coherent Review.

My first ever NXT TV review and I have to say…. this was an okay episode and here’s why. 

The street Profits vs The Metro Brothers (aka Deuce and Domino look like).

This was a quick one. After Street Profits victory over The Metro Brothers, the forgotten brothers beat both Angelo Dawkins and Montez ford with funny crowds chants like “we forgot you” and “ you still suck”. 

Backstage interview with Matt Riddle conducted by Cathy Kelly and Riddle said that his friend (Keith Lee) will teach Kassius ohno a lesson.

After that, Aleister Black cut a promo basically saying that he wants to start the fight early. Which means that they're gonna have a face to face interaction on next week's episode. Should be interesting. 

Bianca Belair and Shayna Baszler face to face confrontation.

Bianca was on the ring, grabbed a microphone and basically said that 2019 will be her year and she got 20/20 when it comes to the NXT Women's championship. Shayna Baszler comes out with her horsewomen buddies and Baszler said that she doesn't see the EST in NXT. 

She also said that she will tare Belair big arms apart. Bianca Belair responded by saying that the only thing her arms are doing is holding that championship high. Shayna Baszler then said that she's gonna make Belair from undefeated to overrated. 

Minutes after that, Bianca Belair slapped Baszler and walk off the ring. A very good segment in my opinion. It did a good job to build off this match. 

Dominic Djakovic vs Adrian Jaoude

Even though I get WWE’s intention in building Djakovic as a dominant monster, this was a slow match for me. Dominic Djakovic won the match with a reverse fireman's carry into a knee strike. 

After that, a War Raiders’ promo package played. It was pretty decent with the music in the background. 

Johnny Gargano vs Humberto Carrillo 

With a name like Humberto Carrillo, you would think that he would win this match right? In all seriousness, Carrillo looked impressive in this match but unfortunately, that didn't help him win this match because Gargano won the match with a springboard DDT. Overall a decent match. 

After that, the best heel in WWE right Tomasso Ciampa cut a pretty good promo basically being confident that he will retain his championship at NXT Takeover Phoenix. 

Keith Lee vs Kassius Ohno

This was an okay match. The match ended with Ohno hit a low blow without the ref’s knowledge. Then delivered a forearm to Lee and won the match. After the match, Riddle came out to the ring to check on his buddy Keith Lee. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The Bianca Belair and Shayna Baszler face to face confrontation, Johnny Gargano vs Humberto Carrillo. 

Didn't like: Dominic Djakovic vs Adrian Jaoude.

Will Hobbs. Professional Wrestling's Powerhouse

"What's the most powerful house you can think of? Perhaps a bungalow, something that's low, unshakable, that kinda thing? ” Hey Ew, 2022 Think of the greatest big men in the history of the business. Big Van Vader who represents pure unadulterated aggression that seamlessly benefits his ferocious in-ring style ( see his match with Mitsuharu Misawa for more information).  Bam Bam Bigelow who's unpredictability inside the ring like his flying headbutts and moonsaults has made him spectacular to watch.  The Undertaker who have built a sense of aura by masterfully marching down the ring, creating anticipation in the process as well as constructing an expression of a man who hates video games and wants “men to be like men” .  And then there's Powerhouse Will Hobbs. A man who I believe in years to come is the heir apparent to the throne of “greatest big men in wrestling” and for good reason. Mr “I Break Backs Like Bane” possesses a power that belies his exuberance.  Why ...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With Musician John Kiernan.

  WE'RE BACK LADIES, GENTLEMEN AND NB! Now, what did I miss from the several week hiatus?  *Scrolls down at the news feed* a billionaire said something stupid. Monday Night RAW is still duh and uninspired. Mass release of talent by WWE.  So……. Same old sh*t? Figures.  For those unaware (pretty much everybody), The 5 News Week is where I showcase 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have the time to do separately.  Without further ado, here are the 5 News Week.  An Interview With Musician John Kiernan.  I kick things off with an interview from a guy that I'm hoping (as a musician) appreciates Brie Bella's theme song because my music tastes suck, musician John Kiernan.  If the name sounds familiar to you, it’s probably because you’re listening to a podcast that loves shouting out the names John “loose cannon” Lopez and ‘Beast Mode” Brock Joseph at the beginning.  Kiernan has composed and straight-up killed it in the pro wrestling musi...

Wrestling Publications And Web Design.

The internet is home to over 50 billion websites and within the pro wrestling niche, there are 60+ established sites that fans click into on a daily basis for news, editorials, reviews, interviews and other exclusive content.  Those websites have four key critical tasks. One, the content obviously. Two, the design and functionality of said sites. Three, just copy what Dave Meltzer said. And four, just make sh*t up.  Creating a site is a different beast. Some use Blogger like this site while others use square-space, Wix, or even code a site from the ground up.  The problem with developing a web page from scratch is that it's time-consuming and you have to learn some mark-up languages like HTML and CSS.  It's essentially a great skill that isn't worth it if you want a site in minutes. Now, the main question is, why am I writing this article in the first place?  When you learn a skill, you tend to have a different view on a product that is connected with the skill ...
