WWE NXT 10/7/19 | My Coherent Review.

Image result for matt riddle vs kassius ohno
A very good edition of NXT TV and with the announcement of a few matches on next week's shows, it seems that we’re getting another good episode. You'll know what I mean by that if you read this review. 

Io Shirai Addresses Her Beatdown To Candice LeRae 2 Weeks Ago. 

WWE Photo
Io Shirai came out with new theme music which is a great choice made by the NXT management given that her older theme doesn't fit her darker evil persona (no shit, Omar). 

Io Shirai basically said that she doesn't need a friend or anybody for that matter and slowly walked off. A segment that's short but a segment I can get by. 

The Velveteen Dream Had A Press Conference Apparently. 

The Dream was asked a number of different questions that includes about his next challenger for his North American championship. Cathy Kelly mentioned Roderick Strong calling Dream out so could we see Roderick Strong as The Velveteen Dream's next challenger? 

I sure hope so. I also did find it funny when Velveteen Dream called Cathy Kelly as "Queen Cathy". Don't have a good reason as to why but it just did. 

Damian Priest vs Blanco Loco.

Blanco Loco lost this one to the Archer Of Infamy referring to Damian Priest of course with a running roundhouse kick of some sort. 

Jordan Myles vs Boa. NXT Breakout Tournament. 

WWE Photo
Jordan Myles was very impressive in this match up. Boa, however, showed his ruthless aggression *Vince McMahon voice* with a series of knee strikes but it didn't put Myles down because Jordan Myles won the match with the 450 splash. It was fine for what it was. 

Shayna Baszler was asked about Mia Yim and Baszler said that Mia's story is generic and Baszler's story as champion will still move on. 

Apollo Crews is coming back to NXT to face Kushida as well as Adam Cole's first title defence and that all happens next week on NXT. I'm calling it right now, next week's show is the greatest NXT episode of all time (I'm obviously joking but I hope that's the case though). 

The Street Profits vs Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch for the NXT Tag Team Championship. 

WWE Photo
This was a good one. Danny Burch at one point, delivered the crossface and Montez Ford broke that up with a kick on Burch's back which I rarely see a babyface (referring to Ford) do that so that's a plus for me. 

The match ends with a vicious looking spinebuster from Angelo Dawkins and a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits retained the NXT tag team titles. 

After the match, Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish came out and pointed the NXT titles from the stage area. Excellent *Mr. Burns' voice*. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: The Street Profits vs Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch for the NXT Tag Team Championship. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

WWE RAW 11/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show makes me wanna go home if I was an attendance of this show. In other words, RAW wasn't good and here's why.  Opening Segment.  The show started off with The Authority. A stable that I actually don't mind but that a different topic. Anyways, they run down the Elimination Chamber PPV card. After that, The Man Becky Lynch came out and Triple H said that he will lift the suspension if Becky apologizes to both him and Stephanie.    Becky then told Stephanie to shut her face and she refused to apologize. The segment ended with Hunter giving her two choices. Either Becky apologizes to them or Becky's WrestleMania match is off.  Compared to the segments on RAW and Smackdown last week, this was underwhelming.  Sasha and Bayley vs Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan vs Nia Jax and Tamina. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.  The match was fine. During the match, Bayley delivered two stunners on the ...

AEW Full Gear 2020 | A Coherent Review.

While Full Gear was a big improvement compared to All Out, the pacing in their PPVs still needs a LOT of work.  I was yawning way too much in the 2nd hour even though I had a 9-hour sleep yesterday.   With a card like this, it doesn't need to be 4 hours.  Oh, and that Serena Deeb and Allysin Kay match on the pre-show was decent.  Kenny Omega vs Hangman Page. AEW World Championship Number One Contender's Tournament Finals.  Hangman Page doesn't have time to play "sportsmanship" as he's nailing Omega with some brutal elbow strikes throughout the first 10 or so minutes.  Speaking of brutal, Page delivered a devastating powerbomb on the stage ramp to Omega and then a sitout powerbomb in the ring to a near fall.  Unfortunately for Hangman, he was taken out with the one-winged angel from Kenny to win the entire tournament.  An enjoyable opener although it could've been just a tiny bit better but I'm nitpicking.  The elite brand will have an an...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism Vol.2

Last spring, I wrote an article about how to critique pro wrestling better aka "a guide on how to improve wrestling criticism" . I got some positive takes on it but the question is, why did I produce the second edition?  Well, you have to thank the awful videos and articles that I, unfortunately, consumed but at least, I wrote down some notes that contained the number of bad critiques that I was passionately blasted down on.  Like I mentioned in last year's piece, I am just an average fan that doesn't claim to be an expert in any form of criticism because YouTube will definitely give you the "I'm right, you're wrong" type of content.  This is just a learning process for not only the viewers reading this but myself as we all are trying to get better.  Without further explanation, let's guide you  to a better critique in wrestling (at least I hope so) numbra dos.  #1. Focusing Too Much On Logic (and no, I'm not talking abou...
