WWE NXT 17/7/19 | My Coherent Review.

I didn't feel anything about this show overall besides one very good match and an impactful debut. Here's why.

Matt Riddle vs Arturo Ruas.

Those two guys have a background in MMA so it was really interesting as to how the match turned out. Started out with some technical wrestling which if you've been a follower of this blog then you'll know how much I LOVE technical submission wrestling.

The match ended with Matt Riddle delivering a series of rights and the ref stopped it which means that Matt won the match. After that, a masked man revealed as Killan Dan was beating the crap out of him and it was so bad that Mauro Ranallo screamed "Mamma Mia" on top of his lungs which is pretty rare.

I actually really liked this. It's a different way to debut somebody and insert that person quickly in a feud instead of having that superstar wrestle in so many squash matches which I don't mind if they went in that route.

The Street Profits had their Street Talk about what happened at the end of last week's episode and they basically said that they're gonna keep those titles and not even Undisputed Era are going to take the tag team championship.

Dexter Lumis vs Bronson Reed.

Lumis is rocking the "Stranger Things" inspired theme music which surprisingly fits. The match overall was slow at first but did pick up once Lumis showed some athleticism in this match. That match has ended with a splash from Reed and won the match.

Tyler Breeze had some verbal interaction with the Forgotten Sons. It was funny that Breeze called Jaxson Ryker as "Buddy Murphy" you know, because Murphy and Wesley Blake were a tag team at one point.

Kushida vs Apollo Crews.

It's great to see Apollo Crews back in NXT and he, by the way, got a standing ovation from the full sail crowd. The match itself was very good and a great example of why Crews is so good in the ring.

Kushida threw Apollo from the top rope into an armbar which looked great. The match ended with Kushida putting Apollo into a kimura lock.

Keith Lee is going to face Damian Priest which I'm not gonna lie, I wish it wasn't Keith Lee that's taking an L but it is what it is.

Adam Cole Calls Out One Of Johnny Gargano's Buddies.

Cole called out Twan Tucker (who's the mentor for Johnny Gargano at a wrestling school in Cleveland) and gave him an opportunity to fight with the NXT champion without his Undisputed Era members. Tucker said that unlike Adam, he's not alone and Johnny Gargano rushed to Adam Cole and just like Matt Riddle earlier, Adam was a victim of a vicious attack even not letting go of the Gargano escape.

I thought that we're going to get an actual match but I was surprised. This was a decent replacement and that's all I gotta say about that.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos:

Like: Kushida vs Apollo Crews, Killian Dain showing up.

Didn't like: Nothing.

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good. The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions. I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case. Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae. Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 17/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

RAW was a mediocre show that had some redeeming qualities but for the most part again, it was a mediocre show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go. WHAT'S GOOD Dean Ambrose vs Drew McIntyre Good match. It was surprisingly hard hitting in my opinion but there was a dumb babyface moment where dean jumped from a ring post and Drew reversed it and instead Dean hit himself on the barricade. After that, Drew hit the claymore kick and wins the match. The opening segment Overall, the segment was pretty good but the most interesting thing I've noticed in this segment was Roman Reigns' promo before Strowman showed up. In my opinion, he has come a LONG way in terms of mic skills. Don't get me wrong he's not "the best talker in WWE right now" but he has improved a lot. But that didn't stop me from thinking that the main event of that show was boring as hell. Lio rush....

The 5 News Week: Florida Men In Government Talks About The Relationship Between WWE And The State.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 .major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. Tony Khan Wrote All Recent Episodes Of Dynamite All By Himself? I've talked about Tony's other position as a writer for AEW on the February 16th edition of this very series and it's always interesting to read the stories involving the creative process of AEW television. AEW's Dynamite show had recently aired its last set of filming and for the most part, they were fantastic and it's all thanks to one man, Vince Russo * stutters * I mean, Tony Khan. From PWInsider and Mikey Johnson , The owner of AEW wrote all of the Dynamite scripts that were eventually taped in Georgia after he realized that the show was going to have a small crew because of the shut down across the country of US of A. The American nightmare himself, Cody has als...
