WWE NXT 27/3/19 | My Coherent Review.

This episode of NXT was a solid effort from the NXT creative team but it wasn't all that amazing besides one particular segment. Oh, and the band Disturbed’s new song is one of the theme songs for NXT Takeover New York and when was the last time a Disturbed song has been a theme song for a PPV? (Wow, that's a lot of a’s). 

Adam Cole Wants to Make His Championship Match Undisputed.

The show started off with The Undisputed Era leader himself, Adam Cole. Cole cut a promo about how he outlasted 4 of the best NXT superstars. 

He then called out Johnny Gargano to which Johhny Gargano came out with “Johnny Wrestling, Adam Cole” chants from the full sail crowd that lasted in what feels like forever and Cole told the crowd that he doesn't need their support while Gargano said that he loves the “Johnny Wrestling” chants. After that, Gargano said that Adam Cole is in the fight of his life at Takeover. 

Adam Cole replied by calling Gargano “Johnny Participation” (which made me laugh) and asked Gargano a question “what has Johnny Takeover done to earn this championship match at Takeover New York?” Johnny answered the question by saying that he's worked really hard to get a single opportunity for 15 years and worked so hard that the crowd started to chant his name. 

Gargano ended the promo by saying that he's gonna become N. X. T. Champion which led to Adam Cole telling his challenger that Triple H proclaimed that the match at Takeover will be definitive but he's wrong. The NXT championship match at Takeover New York will be Undisputed. What a great line and what a segment.

Look, I'm already excited for this match but this segment enhanced my excitement for this 2 out of 3 falls match. 

Vanessa Bourne and Aliyah vs Lacy Lane and Kacy Catanzaro.

Minutes after the match started, Shayna and the gang interfered in the match. Ending the match in a DQ. Other than Kacy’s athleticism, the ending and the match itself was whatever to me. 

Matt Riddle vs Kona Reeves.

The match was okay. During the match, The Velveteen Dream came out and sat on a couch in the stage area with a drink on his hand and that distracted Riddle which led to Reeves delivering the back suplex but Riddle kicked out. 

The match ended with Riddle delivered the bro mission and won the match. After the match, Matt Riddle told The Velveteen Dream that he will see The Dream at Takeover. 

The Forgotten Sons vs Aleister Black and Ricochet. Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Tournament Finals.

That was a goooood main event. Obviously, the team of Aleister Black and Ricochet won the match with the 630 to Wesley Blake. Congratulations to those guys and this Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament is probably my favourite one considering that we've witnessed many match of the year candidates in that tournament. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The Forgotten Sons vs Aleister Black and Ricochet. Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Tournament Finals, The opening segment. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Fyter Fest 2020 Came Back Swinging?

Last week, on this very series, I said that I enjoyed Great American Bash better than Fyter Fest.  Well, this week is the exact opposite. AEW came in swinging with night 2 Fyter Fest.  I've not liked a Dynamite episode in several weeks so it's nice to see that the show finally executed a great show since God knows how long.   NXT      Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Mia Yim vs Candice LeRae In A Street Fight. The match went underway after Yim quickly attacked Candice LeRae during LeRae's entrance.  In the crowd area, Candice tried to nail the suplex on the table but Yim got out of that position and kicked her to which she landed through the table.  The Streetfight concluded with LeRae striking Yim with the brass knuckles followed by a swinging neck from the top of the table onto a bunch of chairs and that's how LeRae defeats the HBIC.  A fun opening match even though...

WWE Smackdown Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

  It is the season premiere of Friday night Smackdown even though WWE doesn't have an offseason.  Nevertheless, it was a decent program and had a WAY better ending than whatever the hell of an ending last year's premiere of Friday night Smackdown showed.  There isn't a women's match this week and all of the AEW fanboys are looking at this like, "sEe, WWE dOeSn't feATuRe wOmeN'S mAtChEs aLsO."  pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Smackdown 2020.  The show started off with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon highlighting the scheduled matches for Smackdown as well as the superstars.  Chaos then ensued thanks to a huge brawl. Then, the "super freak" Lars Sullivan came out and delivered the freak accident to Shorty G.  Somehow, Jeff Hardy attacked him and that led to the opening match of the night between Lars and Jeff.  You know, I'm kind of surprised that two white people in McMahon and Hemsley knew who Rick James is.  Maybe I'm igno...

THE Coherent AEW Take: Christian Dior, Dior. Eddie Kingston up in all the stores!

Ever since AEW Dynamite was on Saturday night for a bit, I've been WAY behind on AEW content so excuse my ignorance. And It's Full Gear weekend which means another PPV that would last longer than the Snyder cut.  Sheeit, I'll bet the collar and elbow hold alone from the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega championship match, is longer than the entire Queen's Crown tournament.  As far as how I feel about both programs this week, well.  They did an okay job on building towards the final AEW PPV of the year this Saturday. Rampage.   Highlights.  Bryan Danielson vs Anthony Bowens.  And no, the highlight doesn't include Max Caster's verses. I'll rather listen to f**king Riff Raff than Max Caster's dig on anything.  The worst part, people are probably going to look at this and say, "can't wait for a Max Caster's appearance on Wild 'N Out!"  With that being said, this opening match was good. Danielson wins with the rebel lock.  Eddie Kingston (wi...
