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).

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Chris Jericho Offers Moxley To Join Inner Circle, The Go-Home Show Before Dec 18th.

I thought the middle act of AEW Dynamite suffered some pacing issues even though it was overall a much stronger show than last week's episode.  The latest episode of NXT, however, has built a solid foundation on what's to come on December 18th. The main question is, which show do I like better? The answer is AEW.  NXT  Highlights. Angel Garza vs Lio Rush For The NXT Cruiserweight Championship.  Was this match better than their first encounter? Like Snoop Dogg's verse in Sasha Banks' theme song, "Hell yea". Garza slams Rush hard on the ring apron by pushing the champ. Moments later, Garza delivers the Spanish Fly and Rush kicked out of that.  As Rush hits the frog splash, the champ wanted to pull him back in the middle of the ring but instead, he ripped off Garza's pants (nice attention to detail).  Angel then hits the wind clipper but Lio kicked out which led to a wind clipper submission and the man of the hour tapped out which m...

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...

A Brief Guide To Pro Wrestling Websites.

So. You just become a fan of pro wrestling and have dabbled into the fandom for a bit (it's a mess ain't it?) You've just followed some news sites' social media platforms but aren't sure whether the articles they put out are accurate or not.  Well, you got the right guy to solve that problem if it's from a blog that barely gets any traction (that would be me in case you were confused).  The news we get from the medium that is pro wrestling is an integral part of the online space.  The reason being is that it's not only a great conversation starter but you could also learn something new today about the industry you love.  That doesn't mean that all of the news you see on the timeline is reliable.  I'm here to hopefully give you a guide to wrestling sites.  There are many wrestling websites out there but I wanna highlight some of the notable ones.  Okay? Here we go.  #1: Wrestling Observer Newsletter aka F4WOnline.  I can't talk about a guide t...
