WWE NXT 24/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a meh episode of NXT. If this is the first time that somebody watches NXT with this episode then you'll have a hard time convincing that particular person to watch another episode you know what I mean? 

The Forgotten Sons’ Jaxson Ryker vs Humberto Carrillo.

I don't watch 205 live but I'm loving every time Humberto wrestles. The match ended in a double count out because Ryker was beating the crap out of Carrillo until Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan showed up to save the young luchador. Not a fan of the Forgotten Sons but this feud for some reason made me wanna watch those two teams fight and I don't know why exactly. 

After that, Adam Cole was asked backstage in a photo shoot about the Roderick Strong vs Johnny Gargano match until Matt Riddle showed up and said that it's his turn which led to Adam Cole leaving the shoot. 

Aliyah and Vanessa Bourne vs Candice LeRae and Kacy Catanzaro.

This was okay. The team of Candice LeRae and Kacy Catanzaro won the match with a springboard moonsault from LeRae. 

Cathy Kelly asked Io Shirai about the actions from Baszler last week and Io Shirai was about to speak until Shayna and the gang came from behind and the gang helped Shayna kicked Io right in the mouth. 

Also something that happened backstage, Kassius Ohno asked William Regal if Ohno could face the debuting Kushida and After Kassius left, William Regal made the match official. This should be very interesting. 

The Street Profits vs The War Raiders aka The Viking Raiders.

The match started quickly with a frog splash from Montez Ford and Rowe kicked out of 2. The War Raiders won the match with a double team slam to Montez Ford. Overall a good match. 

There were three interviewers asking Mia Yim about Shayna owning the NXT Women's division and Yim said that she learned a lot ever since facing the women's champion and she wants another shot at facing Shayna Baszler. 

Johnny Gargano vs Roderick Strong.

A decent main event. By the end of the match, The rest of Undisputed Era came out to save Strong and Matt Riddle showed up from behind to even the odds. Adam Cole then accidentally kicked Roderick Strong which led to Johnny Gargano delivering the slingshot DDT. After the match, there seemed to be some tension between Roderick Strong and his buddies. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The Street Profits vs The War Raiders. 

Didn't like: after thinking long and hard, I have no negatives for this episode.

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

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. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

The 5 News Week: There Was Supposed To Be A New Nation Of Domination Stable!?

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. Why Did The Sasha Banks And Asuka Match Have A Head Scratching Ending? The boss and the empress of tomorrow had a match of the night at Extreme Rules this past Sunday but the ending is a different story.  So, why did an over-complicated type of an ending like this was written into the PPV?  Well, good old Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez stated on Wrestling Observer Radio (From Cagesideseats ) that the finish was layed off like that so that the rematch (which was announced on the recent episode of Monday) will happen.  The hope for that is to "pop a number" in the ratings.  In other words, it was a reported marketing decision (no f'ing sh*t, Omar). Hey, at least we're getting a rematch, right?  Mike Bennett On Contemplating Leaving Pro...

WWE Smackdown 17/12/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another meh episode of Smackdown although the ending was pretty eye-opening.  Images via WWE.com   The Viking Raiders vs Jinder Mahal And Shanky.  After a backstage segment that included The Usos roasting Xavier Woods' kingship, the blue brand really started the show with a match (not this one) which is a rare thing to see on main roster television. And the match wasn't bad at all.  The Viking Raider defeated the team of Jinder and Shanky with a splash from Ivor. Does everyone want a Happy Corbin segment? Well, no and Drew McIntyre agrees as he took out Corbin and Madcap Moss to retrieve his sword which sounds like a bad King Arthur comedy flick or something.  Naomi Wants A Match With Sonya Deville.  Naomi is upset at how Sonya Deville acted like a Susan over the past few months so the glow queen challenged the actual manager to a match at Day 1 and Sonya was like, "Ahhhh, no".  Naomi then had a match with Shayna Baszler and within minute...
