WWE NXT 17/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a wrestling heavy show for the most part and you know what? I like it.

Velveteen Dream vs Buddy Murphy for the NXT North American Championship.

Great match. During the match, Velveteen Dream hit a superkick to Murphy that knocked Murphy's head off. Minutes later, Murphy hits a superkick while Dream was upside down followed by a sitout powerbomb to a near fall.

The match ended with Dream does his signature moves in the death valley driver and the purple rainmaker and won the match. Again, that was a great TV match and I know this early to say this but that was a match of the year candidate.

After this amazing encounter, Street Profits was knocking on William Regal’s office door and the War Raiders (yes, I'm gonna call them that because The Viking Experience is an AWFUL name) came from Regal’s and said that The Street Profits are getting their championship match next week. Weird that The Viking Experience wore the War Raiders shirt.

Johnny Champion Talks about his big win at NXT Takeover: New York.

Johnny Gargano cut a promo basically saying that this a moment he's been waiting for. Out came Adam Cole and the rest of Undisputed Era to spoil the celebration and he said that Johnny Gargano win was a fluke with chants of “You tapped out”.

Gargano replied by saying that his win was undisputed and he's not gonna cry like a little bay bay if he lost the match (that was a great line). Roderick Strong from behind assaulted the champ along with the rest of Undisputed Era. Good segment. The question is, Are we gonna get a rematch? Hope so.

Dominic Djakovic vs Aaron Frye.

That was a squash match. Dominic Djakovic with a dominant victory with a big boot. After the match, He cut a promo basically saying that he wants the North American Championship.

Oh, and a match between Johnny Gargano and Roderick Strong is scheduled for next week's episode. Also, Kushida will debut on NXT TV in two weeks. Can’t wait.

Shayna Baszler vs Kairi Sane for the NXT Women's Championship.

During the match, Shayna Baszler beat up Kairi Sane arm so bad that the medical team came out to check on Kairi. After Shayna hits Sane on her arm, Io Shirai came out and pushed Shayna Baszler which led to the match ending in a DQ.

That was a unique ending. I thought that maybe somewhere down the road WWE could build a feud where Kairi Sane was angry at Io Shirai considering that Io costed Kairi’s championship match but I don't know if that's gonna happen.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos:

Like: Dream vs Murphy for the NXT North American Championship, Johnny Gargano interaction with the Undisputed Era in an in-ring segment.

Didn't like: Nothing really.

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 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...

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...
