WWE NXT 19/6/19 | My Coherent Review.

This episode was okay. Nothing really happened besides some announcements for next week's show and beyond. 

The Rest Of Undisputed Era Celebrates Adam Cole's Big NXT Takeover Victory.

Adam Cole now being the 16th NXT champion, said that he told us so and he has fulfilled his prophecy. Cole also said that he's going to remake the NXT universe into an Undisputed image.

Did he unveil that image to the world? Well, it's not an image really but rather he shows us the NXT opening intro featuring the Undisputed Era only which was badass I must say. 

Adam Cole gave a warning to the North American champion and the NXT Tag Team Champions that they should shine those belts real nice. Speaking of The North American, out came the Velveteen Dream. The Dream said that the NXT Championship would look nice with his North American championship.

After Roderick Strong gave a lame response with "Dream on", Matt Riddle showed up and said that he's a stallion. Adam Cole countered that by saying that Riddle should go back to writing online reviews about the Attitude era. Was that a reference about his days at fightful? 

Tyler Breeze came out and told The Undisputed Era that they're in a match against Breeze, Riddle and Dream. This was an okay segment. Probably the best part about this was the crowd chanting "you're gorgeous" and "OG" to Tyler Breeze. 

Raul Mendoza vs The Debuting Damian Priest.

Damian Priest aka Punishment Martinez looked great in this match. Priest won the match with a twisting cutter. 

After the match, general manager William Regal made the announcement that a tournament is happening next week called "NXT Breakout" in which they selected 9 competitors and those people include Jordan Myles, BOA, Cameron Grimes aka Trevor Lee, Isiah "Swerve" Scott aka Shane Strickland, Dexter Lumis aka Sam Shaw, Bronson Reed aka Junah Rock, Angel Garza aka Humberto Garza and Joaquin Wilde aka DJZ .

I mean if I were one of those guys and I won the whole thing, I'll probably go for the NXT title but that's just me though. As far as this announcement goes, I love me some tournament. More tournament equals more wrestling and there's nothing wrong with that. Also, this is a great way of utilizing unused talent. Something that I wish the main roster would do. 

Taynara Conti vs Xia Li.

We go from a great video package about Mia Yim to a match that had a pretty bad looking judo throw from Conti. Xia Li won the match with a heel kick. Not a fan of this match to the honest. The crowd was into it so that's nice but I, unfortunately, wasn't. Curious as to where Xia Li goes from here though. 

Then, a Street Profits segment aired and they pretty much were celebrating their won with the fans outside or Full Sail and those guys are gonna face The Forgotten Sons so there's that. 

The Undisputed Era in Adam Cole, Bobby Fish and Roderick Strong vs Matt Riddle, Velveteen Dream and Tyler Breeze.

Matt Riddle delivering a kneebar to Adam Cole made me smile considering what Riddle said about Goldberg's kneebar. Minutes after that, Riddle did a suplex but Cole reversed that into a backstabber. 

Because Velveteen Dream tagged Tyler while Tyler was going to do a suicide dive and had some miscommunications, The Undisputed Era won the match with a suplex position into a backbreaker from Strong to the Velveteen Dream.

 In other words, Roderick Strong pinned the champ. Surely, Roderick's getting a North American championship match right seeing how the misunderstanding played put between Breeze and Drew right? Overall a decent 6 man tag match. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Damian Priest's debut. 

Didn't like: Taynara Conti vs Xia Li.

WWE Eyeing On New Creative Writers.

Last week on RAW, The McMahon family announced that there will be new faces and fresh match ups. What better way to invoke change than to seek out new writers with different ideas right?  WWE are actively seeking for new writer's assistant positions with at least two years in writing television and or/ production experience and preferably but not necessary, a degree in Film/TV/Drama, Media Studies, Journalism, Communications, English, or related field of study.  For everyone who thinks they can do it better, here's your opportunity. Merry Christmas! https://t.co/FJch1rOXCM — Jimmy Korderas (@jimmykorderas) December 24, 2018 What do I think of this? As long as Vince is in charge, unfortunately, nothing is going to change for the better of the product but that's just me.  Let me know in the comments on how you would change the WWE product and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions.

WWE RAW 13/9/21 | A Coherent Review.

Ya boy took a week off of talking about wrestling which is something I usually need after watching a single episode of Monday Night RAW but consistency is key, people!  In recent weeks, however, Monday Night RAW doesn't feel like mental torture and the latest episode is no exception.  Images via WWE.com Big E Was Like, "I'm Definitely Cashing In My Contract".  The lovable wholesome gyrating big man name Big E interacted with Randy Orton as well as Bobby Lashley ahead of the WWE title match between Bob and Randal.  The reason is obvious. Big E wants to cash in seeing Becky Lynch's mother again (that's not it?).  All lame jokes aside, the big man did cash in the contract to become the NEW WWE champion later in the episode after a successful title defence from Bobby Lashley against Randy Orton.  Words cannot describe how f**king happy I am seeing one of my favourite performers finally capture the gold which was long overdue if you ask me.  I will go as far as to

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
