The 5 News Week: Dean Ambrose Not Finished With WWE Quite Yet, Smackdown Live To Switch Channels Due To A NHL Game.

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.

Toni Storm Going To Do Stardom Shows In May. 

We're starting and ending this week of 5 news week with minor news because the news has been kinda slow for the most part. Toni Storm who's currently part of NXT UK, is set to work Stardom shows on May 3 till 6 at their Shinkiba 1st ring shows and the 16th of May show at Korakuen Hall. 

Toni Storm obviously made a name of herself at the Stardom promotion so it's great for Stardom fans to witness a great wrestler in Toni Storm once again. Click here to read the full schedule from Wrestling With Demons. 

Dean Ambrose Not Finished With WWE Quite Yet. 

If you think that Dean Ambrose is done with WWE after that amazing RAW off the air send off, think twice because he's not done with WWE yet until his contract expires later this month. He's scheduled for some live events in St Louis, MO, Springfield, IL and Moline, IL. 

He's for some reason advertised for RAW this coming week which wrestlingnews.co and moi agree that he'll likely not be on RAW in a storyline capacity but anything is possible in the world of professional wrestling. 

Smackdown Live To Switch Channels Due To A NHL Game.  

To all my canucks reading this, Smackdown Live will not air on Sportsnet 360 but rather it will air on OLNHD due to the NHL playoffs happening this coming Tuesday according to Mike Johnson over at PWinsider. 

Dakota Kai Ran For The First Time Since Her Knee Injury. 

Great news for me and to all the Dakota Kai fans out there. If you're under the loop, she has been sidelined with a double knee injury since December in a live event and now she tweeted about how she ran for the first time since her injury and quote: 

"Ran today for the first time since my injury.. things are happening! #TheComeback #TEAMKICK"

Edge Looks Back At His Retirement 8 Years Ago. 

Edge. Arguably the greatest wrestler of all time recently took to Twitter about his retirement speech 8 Years ago (can't believe it's been that long): 
I remember watching that speech in my early teens and like a lot of people, I didn't have dry eyes. What a career that man had. 

And that's it for this week of the 5 news week. Not the best week for big wrestling news besides the Sasha Banks story which you can click here to read my good friend Kevin Carroll’s article about that. Anyways, let me know what do you think about the news I just reported and stay safe smarks.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: A Broserweight Road Trip To Portland, Britt Baker Addresses Her Attack On Yuka Sakazaki Last Week.

While this was a typical night for AEW, NXT, however, had a go-home show to deliver just days before the next anticipated Takeover show in Portland, Oregon.  But, NXT's final show before the second Takeover of 2020 didn't bring it, unfortunately, in terms of quality as the 20th episode of AEW Dynamite was the better show this week even though AEW Dynamite is a hit or miss program.  NXT    Highlights.  Roderick Strong vs Bronson Reed. Before the match, a pissed off Roderick Strong demanded an apology from the Velveteen Dream given that Dream put his wife and child's face on his trucks.  By the way, Bronson Reed's theme song is killer and so is this match. A slow, technical, old-school type of match that wouldn't fit the big man on paper but the execution was a different story.  The lights turned purple and Reed hits the suicide dive but he missed a Samoan splash that led to a knee strike from Strong and wins the match.  Then,...

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far. An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs — #WOKEN, yet #BROKEN, Matt Hardy (@MATTHARDYBRAND) October 23, 2018 My heart right now ....
