This was a very good show and that's all I gotta say about that. 

Mia Yim vs Bianca Belair.

This was surprisingly a good match. The match ended with Bianca Belair using the ropes for a pinfall but the ref saw it but then, Belair instead used her long hair to touch the ropes for a pinfall and just like that, she won the match. Honestly ever since her loss at Takeover New York, her momentum decreased a lot and a win from her makes a lot of sense. 

After the match, there was a security camera footage played where the Viking Raiders were leaving and they were ambushed by the Forgotten Sons. So, next week they are gonna address something regarding the NXT Tag Team Championships for next week's show. 

After that, a performance centre segment happened where Shayna and the gang were training in a ring until Io Shirai came and brawled with one of Shayna’s gang. 

Raul Mendoza vs Riddick Moss.

First off, great to see Riddick Moss back in action. Secondly, this was pretty decent. Raul Mendoza picked up a W with a springboard twisting splash. 

Matt Riddle vs Adam Cole.

Me describing this match doesn't do it justice because this was A FANTASTIC match. By the end of the match, Roderick Strong came out to help Cole get back up until Riddle went to the outside and kicked Strong right on the face which made the ref frustrated and went to Strong to get rid of the Undisputed Era member. 

Meanwhile, while the ref wasn't seeing, Adam Cole superkicked Riddle and Riddle managed to survive in this match. Immediately after, Riddle delivered the bro mission and won the match.

After that great encounter, Adam Cole and Roderick Strong were arguing with each other in the ring while Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish were trying to separate the two. I'm glad they stretching this storyline out instead of pulling the trigger. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The main event, Mia Yim vs Bianca Belair. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: A Broserweight Road Trip To Portland, Britt Baker Addresses Her Attack On Yuka Sakazaki Last Week.

While this was a typical night for AEW, NXT, however, had a go-home show to deliver just days before the next anticipated Takeover show in Portland, Oregon.  But, NXT's final show before the second Takeover of 2020 didn't bring it, unfortunately, in terms of quality as the 20th episode of AEW Dynamite was the better show this week even though AEW Dynamite is a hit or miss program.  NXT    Highlights.  Roderick Strong vs Bronson Reed. Before the match, a pissed off Roderick Strong demanded an apology from the Velveteen Dream given that Dream put his wife and child's face on his trucks.  By the way, Bronson Reed's theme song is killer and so is this match. A slow, technical, old-school type of match that wouldn't fit the big man on paper but the execution was a different story.  The lights turned purple and Reed hits the suicide dive but he missed a Samoan splash that led to a knee strike from Strong and wins the match.  Then,...

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far. An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs — #WOKEN, yet #BROKEN, Matt Hardy (@MATTHARDYBRAND) October 23, 2018 My heart right now ....
