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. 

WWE Photo
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.

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...

The 5 New Week's 2nd Anniversary And What I've Learned From Writing About News.

WHAT? A second 5 News Week article of the week? Preposterous.  The reason why I'm writing this is that 2 years ago to this day, October 28th 2018 was the inaugural 5 News Week piece.  I thought to celebrate this day, I want to share to all of the young, aspiring news writers what I've learned from the 2 years I've been writing pro wrestling news  (which has mostly been WWE news because let's be real, I am the resident WWE shill).  Here we go.  Stock images via pexels.com #1: Research And Fact-Checking.  When approaching a piece of news that comes to your news feed, it is important to research the news piece itself so that you're giving the viewer/reader a context as to what's happening.  Which is why your favourite talk show programs like Last Week Tonight, values their research team to analyze the world around them and what can be done through history.  Another reason as to why research is valuable for information is, of course, fact-checking....

WWE RAW 5/8/19 | My Coherent Review.

This episode of RAW didn't prepare the biggest party of the summer very well and detailed but if I was a party planner, I'll give this a pass.  After the entire WWE paid tribute to the horrific mass shooting in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio with a ten bell salute, an opening intro has been played for the first time in a year and then, Samoa Joe cut a promo on the announce table shouting loud and clear that he had nothing to do with the end segment last week on SmackDown Live.  That was a different way to open the show and I absolutely love it. Short, quick and to the point.  Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair vs Natalya and Trish Stratus.  During the match, Natalya locked Lynch in the sharpshooter and not letting go of that hold after Becky caught the middle to break the hold which caused the match to end in a DQ. Trish tried to separate Nattie to which Nattie herself purposely pushed Trish.  Rey Mysterio vs Andrade.  Completely un...
