WWE NXT 31/7/19 | My Coherent Review.

Image result for matt riddle vs kassius ohno
A very good edition of NXT TV and that’s all I have to say about that. 

Tyler Breeze vs Jaxson Ryker. 

WWE Photo
Ryker at one point, delivered a great backbreaker in a side slam position. Breeze took the W with the roll-up and Then, Prince Pretty was assaulted by the rest of Forgotten Sons. Fandango made his return to help his "Fashion Police" tag team partner in Tyler Breeze.

Man, what a way to start off this episode. I absolutely love this and Fandango came out of this like a Goddamn superstar just like his new body look. This could've easily ended a show but they decided not to which was interesting in terms of how Fandango showed up. 

Bronson Reed ve Cameron Grimes. Semi-Finals NXT Breakout Tournament.

During the match, Grimes almost took out the big man with a clothesline but minutes later, Reed countered that with a devastating looking senton. Grimes hits the running double stomp out of nowhere and advances the finals, facing the charismatic Jordan Myles. 

Shayna Baszler Got Mia Yim's Message.

WWE Photo
The NXT women's champion talked about Mia Yim because Mia beating up Shayna's gang in Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir calling it "unprofessional". Mia Yim's music hits and when Yim walked by, she said that "street rat" is going to bring a fight the champ can't train for. Baszler replied by telling Mia that she's "street trash". 

This segment did its job to build hype for the women's champion but I still don't feel that Canada isn't the place to lose Shayna's championship. 

William Regal saw a pissed off Candice LeRae and Candice wanted a match against Io Shirai at Takeover Toronto. Regal said yes. Also, a tag team championship contract signing for next week's show as well as my quick predictions for NXT Takeover: Toronto so follow this very blog for that. 

Pete Dunne vs Roderick Strong. 

WWE Photo
This match has one of the best sequences I've seen all year and I'll tell you my favourite one. Roderick Strong delivered an Olympic slam and tried to hit a back suplex but Dunne reversed that into a DDT. 

Another great sequence was when Strong hits a powerbomb and turned it into a Boston crab. Pete Dunne reversed that into a submission which included that finger-snapping move that Dunne usually does and won the match. 

WWE Photo
Velveteen Dream came out and did a pose with the title to which Pete Dunne grabbed his hand and took Dream out with the bitter end. I got nothing to add other than it was a great main event. Can't wait for Dunne, Strong and Dream square off at Takeover: Toronto. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos: 

Like: Fandango's great return, Pete Dunne vs Roderick Strong. 

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 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
