WWE NXT 6/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

Hello my fellow wrestling fans reading this and welcome to my coherent review for NXT. Was it any good? It was actually and here's why. 

Opening Segment.

The show opened with the new North American champ, Johnny Gargano and the champ said that Johhny Wrestling is back. Out came the NXT champion and the best heel in all of WWE, Tomasso Ciampa and he cut a promo basically saying that he's not here to interrupt his moment but rather celebrate his moment and they own the world. 

Johhny replied by saying that this is not their moment and the reason why he came out after Takeover Pheonix is to show him that he will never need Ciampa. The Velveteen Dream's music's hit and he said that this not about them. This is about The Velveteen Dream. Dream then chose to face Johhny Gargano for the North American championship to which Gargano accepted. Ooh, I can wait to watch that match. Overall a good segment. 

Jaxson Ryker vs Mansoor.

During this match, Mansoor looked very impressive. Watch out for him. Anyways, the match itself was rather a quick one. Ryker won the match with a sitout spinebuster. After the match, He delivered another sitout spinebuster to Mansoor. 

After that, a backstage segment happened where Cathy Kelly wanted to interview Ricochet but Adam Cole came out and said that Ricochet is a one trick pony. Ricochet then interrupted and proposed him to a match next week and see who's the more deserving for the NXT North American championship to which Cole accepted. Intrigued. 

Drew Gulak vs Eric Bugenhagen.

Eric's scream is just laughable to me and I don't know how this is not a meme. Anyways, the match was fine. Drew won the match with the Dragon Sleeper. Drew then cut a promo basically saying that he feels disrespected and calls out whoever wants to challenge him. 

That person was none other than Matt Riddle and Matt says that Drew should leave NXT or he's gonna tap him out and throw him back to 205 live. Drew says that he would love to make his day and that's how the match was made. 

This was a match that depending on your taste, you may like it or not and I did like this match. Matt Riddle wins here with the bro mission. I feel like this match was a great way to show off Riddle's submission skills and that's why I appreciate so much about this match. 

Bianca Belair, Io Shirai and Kari Sane vs Shayna Baszler, Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir. 

WWE Photo
First off, I really liked Belair's ring gear. Secondly, the match was fine. The team of Bianca Belair, Io Shirai and Kari Sane won the match with Io delivered the moonsault to Baszler. Really interesting that Shirai pinned the NXT Women's championship. I think the match that really makes sense at this point is an Io Shirai vs Bianca Belair number one contender's match for the Women's championship. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Opening segment, Drew Gulak vs Matt Riddle match. 

Didn't like: (none).

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

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. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week.

Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.  Wrestlemania 36 To Lose Over $20 Million!? The entertainment industry could lose over $20 billion dollars and WWE is one of those entities especially pertaining Wrestlemania and it's business.  From Wrestlenomics , The host of the show, Brandon Thruston dives into WWE financials yet again (because that's the theme of the show duh?) and finds out that this year's Wrestlemania could lose around $20 million.

The 5 News Week: What's With The Story Of WWE Will Possibly Put Their Content On A Different OTT?

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.  This past week was filled with news so  fasten your virtual seat belts because this is gonna be a long one. Without further ado, here are The 5 News Week.  What's With The Story That WWE Will Possibly Put Their Content On A Different OTT?  This confusion all started when some fans (including myself) saw the headline from a well-respected publication "WWE In Talks Talks to Sell PPV Rights to Another ‘Major’ Streaming Service." That publication is The Wrap and the article pretty much talked about what Vinne Mac said in the Q4 2019 earnings report about the possibility of putting their content to a major streaming service or enhance the prize point to a tiered payment but the deal to quote The Wrap " if made — would be announced by next month.". Did the old man say this? Let...
