The 5 News Week: Jason Jordan Injury Update, Ronda Rousey Rumoured To Play She-Hulk?

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. 

Jason Jordan's Injury Update. 

Jason Jordan has worked as a producer moments after getting neck surgery in February of last year and remained hopeful that he steps into the square circle once more. 

From The Wrestling Observer Newsletter (shout out to WrestlingInc for the quotes), his career is most likely over but Jordan was reportedly "doing pretty good" back in January but he had trouble holding his fist. 

He has however been doing pretty well as a producer even viewing his opinion as "high regard" according to WrestleVotes tweet back in March. 

I remember at one point, liking where his character was heading towards. It's a shame that we don't get to see that conclusion considering that he is very talented in the ring. 

How Vince Reportedly Feels About Chad Gable. 

Now, you may read this headline like "that's obvious, he doesn't see any star power in the guy" but you are actually wrong…….. reportedly. From Dave Meltzer and The Wrestling Observer Newsletter (again shout out to WrestlingInc), Vince actually "likes and appreciates" the former Olympian and has a game plan (get it? Game plan you know because he's running the XFL?) to continue his feud with King Corbin. 

(Also, Dave didn't actually say game plan. That was something I added there to summarize what he said in case you were wondering). 

I'm glad he feels this way and I'm so far really appreciating on what type of story they're telling with Chad Gable. 

Ronda Rousey Rumoured To Play She-Hulk!? 

Ronda Rousey has been doing some acting work as of late such as appearing on FOX's 9-1-1 as a firefighter but this piece of news is something that you should take with a grain of salt. 

Just to get on track, She-Hulk is getting a series for the upcoming Disney Plus streaming service. From We Got This Covered (which if you don't know, they're basically Ringside News in terms of exclusive news reporting), their sources told them that Ronda Rousey of all people is eyed to play the lawyer crime-fighting heroine. 

I would've dived in as to why they're not reliable but that would be a 5-page essay and I'm not doing all that because life. Just life. 

Former Wrestlers Appearing On Big Show's Sitcom. 

Sticking to a theme of wrestlers in a series, Big Show is currently filming his sitcom that is set to launch on Netflix and on a recent Instagram post, it seems that Mick Foley, Rikishi and Mark Henry are part of that show. Honestly, I like watching sitcoms so I'll give this a shot. 



RAW And Smackdown Getting A New Entrance Stage?

RAW and Smackdown Live entrance stages doesn’t look like it was made with much life put in when it comes to their design stages since 2008 but WrestleVotes is getting my hopes up in a tweet that says…. 

"This coming week of TV is the final week with the current entrance stage. Both RAW & SmackDown are getting an updated, fresh feeling set." 


Hoping that it’s actually true. 

What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

The 5 News Week: What's With The Story Of WWE Will Possibly Put Their Content On A Different OTT?

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.  This past week was filled with news so  fasten your virtual seat belts because this is gonna be a long one. Without further ado, here are The 5 News Week.  What's With The Story That WWE Will Possibly Put Their Content On A Different OTT?  This confusion all started when some fans (including myself) saw the headline from a well-respected publication "WWE In Talks Talks to Sell PPV Rights to Another ‘Major’ Streaming Service." That publication is The Wrap and the article pretty much talked about what Vinne Mac said in the Q4 2019 earnings report about the possibility of putting their content to a major streaming service or enhance the prize point to a tiered payment but the deal to quote The Wrap " if made — would be announced by next month.". Did the old man say this? Let...

WWE RAW 10/8/20 | A Coherent Review.

This episode when it's good, it is REALLY good but when it's awful, it is REALLY awful. A mixed bag of a show, to be honest. pictures via WWE.com Two Contract Signings? For the first time at least in my lifetime, there are two contract signing for the same one match. Anywho, it's for the Seth Rollins and Dominik Mysterio match and Samoa Joe is the moderator which by the way, he's the best one yet. Based on Seth's promo telling Mysterio's Hijo that he can use a kendo stick or anything in the toolbox, it sounds like it's a no DQ match. The best part about this engaging segment by far is Joe's promo about how Seth Rollins was a different man ever since the fans booed him. Dominik's line quote, "Seth Rollins' actions change the lives of good men for the worst" pretty much describes Seth's heel run so far and I love it. That led to a match between Humberto Carrillo and Rollins. The match was quick af. Af...

WWE RAW 7/1/19 | My Coherent Review

My first RAW review of 2019 and surprisingly, this show was decent. Now, would RAW put on decent shows in the coming weeks or months? Probably not but I hope that's the case. Now, usually on my RAW and Smackdown Live reviews, I give my thoughts on what's good, what's ok and what bad ( click here if you curious as to how the format looks like). However, since this is the new year, I'm gonna get rid of that and instead just put my in-depth thoughts just like my PPV reviews. Without further ado, on with the review.  Opening Segment The show itself started off with a brawl between Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley that lasted for a very short period of time. After that’s done, the opening segment started with John Cena and cuts a promo on how he’s gonna earn his golden ticket to Wrestlemania by entering in this year’s Royal Rumble match.  Out came Drew McIntyre and he said that Cena’s accomplishments is what Drew cares about. He then went on how he’s b...
