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.

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

WWE Smackdown 14/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

WOAH, WOOOOOAH *Insert drums* BURN IT DOWN *insert more drums* Don't know why I just quoted Seth Rollins' theme song. Probably because I'm bored and have nothing else better to do on a Saturday afternoon (which explains the Smackdown review).  Now, how was the show? It was aight.  The Viking Raiders vs Angel And Humberto Carrillo vs Jinder Mahal And Shank vs Mansoor And Cesaro. Winner Gets A Blue Tag Belt Opportunity.  The best part about all of this was The Usos introduction of all 4 members. Gotta say, they're pretty natural at this and wouldn't mind them doing ring announcing full time.  The only thing they should avoid is threatening somebody with WWE lawyers.  The Viking Raiders won the whole thing and all I can say is, finally! No more Viking Raiders vs Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss matches.  Why WWE Be Messing With Sami Like That!?  That "InZayn" stunt show is sad to watch. He should've been doing so much better than trying to do knockoff Jacka**...

The 5 News Week: Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions?, WWE Made How Much From YouTube!?

We're back. Well, I'm back given that I do this all by myself but in any case, The 5 News Week has returned to your feeds wherever ever it may be. In case you're new here, basically, in one article I share the 5 major or minor news of the week. Now, there were a lot of news that I've missed in 3 weeks including a story of a WWE shareholder suing WWE and Vince McMahon (how the hell didn't I report about this?).  I'm rambling on so without further useless explanations, here are the 5 News Week.  Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions? Steve Austin has interviewed some of the wrestlers he has faced over the years on his Broken Skull Sessions show with the exception of Goldberg other than a few stare downs in a feud that everyone wishes to forget.  Another person that is no stranger to the rattlesnake is the hitman himself Bret Hart and he's reportedly the next guest. From PWInsider and Mike Johnson, Bret was in the City ...
