WWE NXT 1/5/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a good show, my guys. Not as great as the episode that featured the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament but it was a good effort nevertheless. 

Oney Lorcan, Danny Burch and Humberto Carrillo vs The Forgotten Sons.

Decent match. During the match, Humberto Carrillo did a suicide dive to Oney Lorcan accidentally which led to Danny Burch fighting three members of The Forgotten Sons all by himself. The match ended with The Forgotten Sons delivering the double reverse DDT into a stomp to Carrillo and Lorcan. 

After the match, Cathy Kelly interviewed Shayna along with her gang and Kelly asked is it because Io Shirai had a pinfall victory over the queen of spades was the motivation of Shayna’s attack last week? Shayna then pushed Kelly's mic down and kept on walking. 

Speaking of a feud in the women's division, Bianca Belair and Mia Yim were arguing in the performance centre which led to a match made between those two women's on next week’s episode of NXT TV. Should be a good match. 

Dominic Djakovic vs Mansoor.

This is a good match and a great showcase for Mansoor but unfortunately, he lost the match because Dominic Djakovic won the match with a reverse fireman's carry into a knee strike. 

After the match, Velveteen Dream came out and he was singing in the tune of the American National anthem basically shitting on Djakovic. That ending was perfect man. This was great.  

Kushida vs Kassius Ohno.

Kushida is still rocking the Marty Mcfly/Back To The Future gimmick and I like it. You know what I also like? This match. That sitout facebuster from Kassius looked fantastic. Kushida won the match with I'm assuming a modified Kamura lock? 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Dominic Djakovic vs Mansoor and the ending of that match, Kushida vs Kassius Ohno. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

WWE NXT Takeover: XXV | My Coherent Review.

Look guys, I don't need to tell you this. This was a great show. Now, you're probably be asking "if you don't need to tell me this then why are you to quote yourself, TELLING ME THIS!?" Good question but the reason why is because I like to talk about great pro wrestling.  Matt Riddle vs Roderick Strong.  An absolute must rewatch match for me and a must watch for you guys if you haven't seen it. Match started off with some amateur wrestling style takedown from both guys.  Then, Roderick Strong hit a modified back suplex on the ring apron. By then, Riddle hits Strong with a brainbuster. Riddle had the highlight of that match by hitting Strong with a go to sleep (yes, that go to sleep) into a German suplex with a bridge.  Roderick hits a powerbomb pin into a Boston crab then the match ends with Riddle delivered with a move that I wish I knew what the name of it was.  Street Profits vs The Forgotten Sons (in Steve Cutler and Wesley Blake) vs The Undi...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking).  However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?”  In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t.  There are fans out there on the interweb that b...

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...
