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. 

WWE Photo
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.

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...

Escape The Undertaker | A Short Coherent Review.

The internet. The only place where your YouTube recommended is filled with "I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT'S PG".  It is also home to Netflix which released an interactive movie produced by future Raspberry award-winning movie studio, WWE films. Look, the idea of 3 black dudes being trapped inside a house by a white conservative dead hog, is offensive and by that description alone, you weren't sure for a sec whether you were watching Netflix or the Daily Wire.  Luckily, there wasn't a cameo from Tessa Blanchard so you should be fine.  As a fan of Mass Effect 2, I love some dialogue trees that alter the events of a movie/game.  And, from a functionality standpoint, it is a technical marvel how it gives the audience the illusion of choice (you know, like our current economic system).  I say "illusion" because therein lies the main problem I have with the film. Your choices don't matter here. Even in a WWE movie, they're still trying to avoid the fan...

WWE Smackdown Live 11/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall a good show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.  WHAT'S GOOD Jeff Hardy vs Shinsuke Nakamura The promo before this was okay however that was a goooood match. Better than their in counter at SummerSlam. Jeff was about to beat Nakamura, however, randy outta nowhere pushes hardy on the outside hence Nakamura retains the championship and Jeff wins via DQ. They had a brawl that was better than the brawl last night on RAW I'll tell you that much.  Samoa Joe telling a bedtime story in a good not boring way.   I thought from the editing to the design of the book to the way Samoa Joe express the story was fantastic. The thing I LOVE about this is that it's a outside in the box type of promo package that worked. Man, I can't wait for this match. On Sunday night when the PPV airs, I think I'm gonna call my local "WENDYYYS" (My goodness that was awfu...
