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.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

NXT Takeover: 30 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeovers have delivered greatly throughout the "30 years" of Takeover shows.  This one, in my opinion, wasn't it. For a Takeover program, this was disappointing.  All of the Takeovers are A's or B's and Takeover 30 was a C at best.  At least, I like the stage production set.  pictures via WWE.com PRESHOW: Breezango vs Legado De La Fantasma vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch. Winner Faces Imperium For The NXT Tag Team Championship.  It was a fine match. Joaquin Wilde's ring gear was really cool even though it took a bit out of the seriousness from the Legado De La Fantasma stable. I'm just nitpicking though.  Breezango actually won the match and will go on to face Imperium for the tag belts.  MAIN SHOW: Finn Balor vs Timothy Thatcher.  Timothy Thatcher started off this match with a series of punches which he then later transitioned into various submission moves.  Pretty much, Finn has no choice but to adapt to...
