WWE NXT 13/3/19 | My Coherent Review.

Last week's episode of NXT was one of the best NXT show of 2019 so far. The question is, Can this episode of NXT top that? No, but it was a decent episode though. 

Mustache Mountain vs The Forgotten Sons.

This was a decent match. During the match, Tyler Bate delivered a double aeroplane spin to Steve Cutler and Wesley Blake. The match ended with The Forgotten Sons did a reversed DDT into a double stomp from the top rope, won the match and is in the finals of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. 

After the match, Matt Riddle was interrupted by Adam Cole and Adam said that he's deserving of a North American championship match. Riddle then proposed a match between himself and Adam Cole. Count me in. 

Io Shirai vs Bianca Belair.

This was okay. The match ended in a DQ because of the champ Shayna Baszler and she put Bianca Belair, Io Shirai and Kairi Sane to sleep with a clutch submission. Gotta be honest, not a fan of that ending. 

I get it that WWE wants to set up a fatal four-way match between all of those women but it made the champion look really dumb with that finish. Like can't Baszler just watch two wrestlers beat each other for an opportunity to face her rather than interfering the action if you know what I mean? I will say this, the percentage for Shayna Baszler losing the championship is pretty high.  

Aleister Black and Ricochet vs #DIY.

A very entertaining main event. Aleister Black’s moonsault mix with his quickness is a thing of wrestling beauty. The team of Aleister Black and Ricochet won the match with the black mass followed by a 630 splash from Ricochet. 

After the match, Tommaso Ciampa tried to turn on Johnny Gargano again but Gargano got the best in the NXT champion with the full sail crowd chanted “Johnny Wrestling”. I believe this is the Tommaso Ciampa’s last televised match before his neck surgery. Get well soon champ. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Aleister Black and Ricochet vs #DIY. 

Didn't like: The ending of the Io Shirai vs Bianca Belair match.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Three Big Returns, A Great Inaugural Women's Championship Match.

If you have been a fan of this site since January, then you'll know that I've completely rebooted my review process and now, I'm doing that again.  Don't worry, the format for my RAW, Smackdown and PPV reviews will still be the same but not on Wednesdays. So, here it is, My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays.  NXT The Highlights. Adam Cole vs Matt Riddle For The NXT Championship.  A match that opened this episode of the yellow brand, the original bro and the leader of The Undisputed Era tore the house down.  Whether it's Cole reversing the fireman's carry from Riddle into a backstabber, Cole hitting a Panama sunrise twice, a floating bro or the crowd chanting "Adam Cole, bro", it was a visual statement by NXT that the yellow brand is THE brand to watch.  Unfortunately,  Riddle felt short and ate the last shot but there was another highlight I wanna talk about….. Finn Balor Returns To N. X. T.  It's not a typo my friends, Finn ...

How Naomi's Royal Rumble 2020 Return SHOOK Black Twitter.

If you haven't been watching WWE for 10+ years, well first off, why are you here and secondly, can I be like you because I'm jealous?  Let me recap who Naomi is. She is a wrestler, actor, dancer, singer and a former women's champion who's been with WWE for 10 years.  In other words, Naomi is a future EGOT winner and you cannot tell me otherwise.  Thanks to her persona that resonated with the audience whether as a heel or a babyface, she has built up a following that is "ride or die" for the former funkadactyl aka stans which I am a part of.  Why? Because if there's one thing I have in common with Stan Twitter is that we love to call white people "ageing at the speed of crack".  She may be throwing glow sticks like an early 2010s Ellie Goulding music video, but she's a capable talent that can hang with the best of the best.  But, you read the title. This ain't about a career retrospect about Naomi (although I don't mind doing so), but ...
