The 5 News Week: Master P Buying House Of Glory!?, NXT TV To Air In Different Arenas!?

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. Sorry for not posting in two days. Just some personal stuff I gotta deal with and my Coherent Wednesdays review was a bit rushed and I want to nail it in a no pun intended, coherent matter if that makes any sense? Hopefully, my reviews will get better in the coming weeks. 

Master P Buying House Of Glory!? 

A great example of human beings having an unpredictable nature to them (ask Vince McMahon), Master P was interviewed somewhere in Manhattan and he announced that he has brought an independent wrestling promotion based in New York called House Of Glory or HOG which was founded by Brian XL and Impact Alumni Amazing Red in 2014. 

PWInsider and Mike Johnson gave an update to this story stating that Master P will deliver the "muscle and production team" going forward and Brian XL will remain the head creative of HOG. 

Master P is no stranger to the world that is professional wrestling, the rapper has appeared in WCW back in 1999 even leading a stable called the "No Limits Soldiers". 

The reason why I'm familiar with the promotion is that Jason Solomon of the Solomonster Sounds Off podcast mentions HOG whenever he's announcing a big wrestling hangout event so that's cool. 

Also, I highly recommend reading an article from MTV's website about the person that wrote the article's experience training with House Of Glory. It's a good read and you can click here to read it. 

The Rock Congratulates The Guy's Over At NWA. 

The National Wrestling Alliance recently aired their weekly show called "NWA Power" (which is actually very good) and one of if not the busiest person in Hollywood The Rock gave his thoughts on the show that honours the old school. 



Later Jim Cornette actually responded to him by thanking him for his time to watch NWA Power.  It's always great to report on positive news. 

Where Has Samoa Joe Been!? 

Easy answer, he suffered an injury. A broken thumb to be exact according to Mike Johnson and PWInsider. He's currently waiting for his return inside the ring. 

The last time he's been on TV was the triple threat King Of The Ring semi-finals match between himself, Ricochet and Baron Corbin several weeks back. 

NXT TV To Air In Different Arenas!? 

That could be a possibility right? Well, the answer is obviously yes but let's dive into the Wrestling Observer Newsletter' story about this (shout out to WrestlingInc for the quotes). 

WWE officials are searching for 5,000 seat arenas similar to the arenas AEW has been airing from and have reached out to some of them that are fit to air on Wednesday nights. 

Vinnie Mac (Vince McMahon for you slow mofos) has been speculated that he would see how AEW has performed in their arenas and see how Full Sail looks in comparison (if that isn't the most Vince McMahon thing I've ever read).

The yellow brand to air in different arenas has been in discussion well before the ratings for the first USA network show came out but speculations say that the discussion happened before the move to USA was even made public. 

In other words, it was AEW's influence on airing Dynamite on TNT that made WWE's best brand to air on the USA network. NXT has aired episodes in different arenas before but in a much smaller setting. We shall see how the crowd reactions will be different in a good or bad way. 

A Former Viceland International Chief Joins WWE's International Business. 

WWE has hired a qualified candidate to run WWE's global business and that person is James Rosenstock (Who? Who? Who? Who?). 

He has been working as the president for Viceland International overseeing their content in countries like India, Brazil, the Middle East among others. He also oversaw the acquisition for Eurosport in his tenure as executive vice president of Discovery Inc. 

Judging by his body of work, it's a good hire for WWE to oversee their international business. 

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

WWE RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending.  I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List".  Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down.  Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%.  Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW.  Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...

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 ...

WWE Smackdown Live 30/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown Live yesterday was a skippable show other than the opening segment and match in my opinion. Now usually on my RAW/Smackdown Live review, I break down what's good, what's ok and what's bad. For the first time, I'm only gonna tell you what's ok given that this show was again a skippable show and here we go.  WHAT'S OK The opening segment  This is the probably one of if not most noteworthy moment this week mainly because as you might know, there were reports going around that John Cena and Daniel Bryan were out of Crown Jewel and the reports are indeed true and it makes sense, especially for John Cena considering that he's an actor now and he needs to maintain his PR status. The segment itself was decent. Loved both guys' intensity and that segment leads to a WWE championship match and speaking of which............. Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles  Decent match. Expected a better from these two but again, decent nevertheless but...
