WWE NXT 6/3/19 | My Coherent Review.

The first series of matches in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament has finally arrived but was it that good? Hell yea it was. If you just wanna watch guys wrestle then this is the episode for you.  

Before I get to talk about NXT this week, it has been confirmed by WWE that Tommaso Ciampa will undergo neck surgery later today considering that WWE announced it around 14 hours ago. Dave Meltzer first broke the story on the Wrestling Observer Radio (click here to listen the full audio on this). 

By the way, I read an article from Rothmanorto.com about the Anterior Cervical Fusion recovery process and it takes 3 to 6 months but the result may depend on the patient so keep that in mind. I wish Ciampa nothing but a speedy recovery and will see how the NXT championship scene goes from here. 

Aleister Black and Ricochet vs Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel.

That springboard moonsault to Ricochet from Aichner was PICTURE PERFECT. Anyways, This was a great match. No shocker, the team of Aleister Black and Ricochet won the match with the black mass to Fabian Aichner. What an encounter between all four men. 

After the match, a rematch between Dominic Djakovic vs Keith Lee has been scheduled for NXT in two weeks. My wish came true guys. Can't wait. 

The Forgotten Sons vs Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch.

This was a hard hitting match. Oney Lorcan was selling his injured back and that was a big disadvantage because The Forgotten Sons won the match with a powerbomb into a backstabber. 

Immediately after that, The Velveteen Dream came out and stands on the announce table. Velveteen Dream grabbed a microphone and he reminded everybody that he's the North American champion. 

The Original Bro, Matt Riddle came out and he said that he wants to take a closer look at that championship and wonders how it would look like around his waist. The Dream replied by putting a spotlight on him which was perfection. 

A match between The Velveteen Dream and The Original Bro for the North American Championship? Sign me up. 

A number one contender's match has announced for NXT TV next week between Io Shirai and Bianca Belair. Looking forward to that. 

Moustache Mountain vs Street Profits.

Another good tag team match. Moustache Mountain won the match with a reverse fireman's carry from Trent Seven into a stomp from Tyler Bate. This was a shocker for me given that Trent Seven and Tyler Bate are currently on the NXT UK roster and I thought this was an easy win from the Street Profits. 

Undisputed Era vs #DIY.

Nice to hear the #DIY theme song. The match itself was fantastic. The team of Johnny Gargano won the match with the #DIY kick or at least that's what I call it. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Every single tag match in that tournament so far. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
