WWE NXT 3/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

Gotta be honest, this NXT TV episode before NXT Takeover: New York was not great but also not terrible either. I couldn't find anything positive besides one match and couldn't find the negatives. However, it was a decent effort from the NXT creative team.

The War Raiders vs Local Jobbers.

The show started off with a match which I appreciate NXT for changing how they open their shows like that. The War Raiders won the match with a pump up slam. After the match, The War Raiders was in a fighting mood so they call out any other team in NXT and here came Cezar Bononi and Adrian Jaoude. The War Raiders won that match with a double team leg drop to Bononi.

After that, Candice LeRae was interviewed outside of the full sail arena until Aliyah and Vanessa Bourne told Candice LeRae that she's not NXT Women's championship worthy. LeRae then wanted a match between herself and Aliyah. The more I see Aliyah, the more I think that she could potentially be a great adversary in the NXT women's division.

Oney Lorcan vs Jaxson Ryker.

This was a decent match. Jaxson Ryker won the match with a sitout spinebuster to Oney Lorcan.

From one outside interview to another. This time it was Keith Lee and he wanted a conclusion between himself and Dominic Djakovic. The match between Keith Lee and Dominic Djakovic is happening in two weeks on NXT TV and I'm very much looking forward to it.

Bianca Belair vs Kairi Sane.

A very good main event in my humble opinion of course but with a decent ending. Shayna and the gang interfered in the match and just like that, the match ended in a DQ. Then, a big brawl happened which led to the entire NXT women's division trying their best to separate all of the women in the fatal four-way match. Out came Io Shirai and she delivered a picture perfect moonsault to the entire women's division. The show ended with Io Shirai holding the title high.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos:

Like: The main event.

Didn't like: nothing really.

Since this review is pretty short, I thought this was a good way to put my quick NXT Takeover: New York predictions so follow the blog if you wanna read my NXT Takeover: New York review. Without further ado, here we go.

Pete Dunne vs Walter For The NXT UK Championship.

My Pick: New champion crowned aka Walter wins.

Velveteen Dream Vs Matt Riddle for The NXT North American Championship.

My Pick: Matt Riddle takes home the gold.

War Raiders vs Aleister Black and Ricochet for the NXT Tag Team Championship.

My Pick: Pretty much every Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic winner went on to win the tag team titles but not this time. War Raiders retains the titles.

Shayna Baszler vs Kairi Sane vs Bianca Belair vs Io Shirai for the NXT Women's Championship.

My Pick: Bianca Belair wins the championship. kicking off a feud between her and Io Shirai after Takeover.

Adam Cole vs Johnny Gargano 2 Out of 3 Falls Match for The NXT Championship.

My Pick: Adam Cole wins the championship BAY BAY.

Top 7 Best NXT Takeover Theme Songs.

Everbody likes to put on some good music. You like good music. Your friends and family like good music. However, what makes a song good is completely subjective but in my opinion, NXT are nailing it with their takeover theme songs and I'm ranking them on a glorified subjective form of content and that is list videos/articles or in my case a top seven list. Without further ado, Here are my top seven best NXT takeover theme songs. 7. Serpents by Neck Deep The reason why I like this song so much is that it gives me some early 2000s punk rock which by listening to this song, it feels like they're paying a homage to that era. overall a good listen that depending on how old you are will give a nostalgic feel like I did. 6. Ace Of Spades by Motörhead Now, l like me some Motörhead. Triple H's current theme and the evolution theme song is some of my favourite theme music of all time and this is no exception. The only critique I have for this song ...

The 5 News Week Look-Back: Batista's Match With Triple H At Wrestlemania 35 Supposed To Be A Hell In A Cell!?, A Look Back At Eric Bischoff's Role As Executive Director.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 News Week where I usually report on the 5 major or minor news of the week but I'm not doing that here if you can't tell from the graphic I made (you're welcome, by the way). But Rather, all throughout December, I'm going to look back at some of the news that came out in 2019. The start of a new decade is going to be upon us in the coming days and that can be exciting especially for the future of the wrestling business as a whole. I hope you guys celebrate the new year's day and of course, drink responsibly. Fans Frustration Over The Booking Of The Main Roster Women's Division. I wrote an article earlier this year about why women's wrestling in world wrestling entertainment of the year 2018 was great (which you can click here to read the whole thing). However, it seems like the year after (2019) was the exact opposite. Now, they did rebound the quality of storytelling in the women's div...

Wrestling With Whiteness | A Documentary Sorely Needed.

Here's the thing. My 2 viewers will know that I've been a wrestling fan for 15 plus years but what they do not know is that I've been a Somali (aka a Black Muslim person) my entire life so talking about this documentary is going to be a little more personal, to say the least. And look, I know this is the part where I insert my usual wit and fart jokes but you're not gonna see less of that because this is a serious topic (and you know it's serious when I mentioned my ethnicity) about representation and the shared struggle across every single black performer featured in this documentary. From the press release, Wrestling With Whiteness "focuses on sharing the stories of Black folx and their experience in the wrestling community. Using a combination of interviews with Black wrestlers and Black content creators, Wrestling With Whiteness uncovers the unique experiences of Black people in the industry and the rise of representation for performers and fans around th...
