My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: RAW And Smackdown Open Invitational, A Major Announcement From Chris Jericho.

While NXT was the better show in my opinion (Omar likes something WWE related!? Well, you don't say), AEW had the most intrigued for an upcoming episode if that makes sense? 

Here it is, another week of my honest wrestling Wednesdays. 

NXT 

Highlights.

Becky Lynch Showed Up. 

Oh yes, she did with a standing ovation and The Man said that the people wouldn't wait any longer for her to fight. 

Lynch insulted Bayley for not getting rid of the only blue buddy that is holding Bayley back and also called out Shayna and her gang. Out came Rhea Ripley and she asked Lynch if she had a set of balls leading to a match between those two athletes. What a segment. 

The crowd ate that up including me and some watching at home I assume? A fantastic opening segment and also, how good Becky Lynch is as a babyface? While that match ended in a DQ due to Shayna and her gang interfering and given that they both have a big match coming up, I thought it made sense but I could see why some would find that finish lazy or cheap. 

Matt Riddle vs Ricochet.

Supposed to be a Kona Reeves vs Matt Riddle match but Ricochet kicked Reeves onto the ring post leading to the first brand supremacy match of the night. 

Riddle won the match with a modified roll up then Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro from Smackdown stormed in and Ricochet layed out Cesaro with a top rope crossbody on the crowd area (that move was fantastic). 

Finn Balor stuck in the ring and fought with Riddle for a bit. That top rope crossbody from Ricochet was a highlight waiting to be put in a video package even though the match was decent. 

The Undisputed Era In Kyle O'Reilly And Bobby Fish vs The Revival. 

That was a dream match being booked on your WWE 2K universe mode and it delivered that fantasy booking. It was Takeover worthy showing which is not surprising given that it's very familiar territory for the former Smackdown tag team champions. 

Undisputed Era did a pop-up knee strike to Dash Wilder. Scott Dawson then hit a superplex followed by a splash from Dash Wilder to Bobby Fish and Fish survived that. O'Reilly saved Fish from having Dawson count to 3 after The Revival nailed the shatter machine to Fish.

The Undisputed Era hit the double team move that I still don't know the name of and won this match. Probably a match of the year candidate and definitely the best TV match of the year candidate. 

The Viking Raiders vs The Forgotten Sons In Wesley Blake And Steve Cutler.

Forgotten Sons looked like a champ in this match surprisingly but they lost the match with the Viking Experience. After that performance, give Forgotten Sons a tag title shot at some point down the line. 

Adam Cole vs Dominic Djakovic. Winner Gets A War Games Advantage In A Ladder Match. 

Cole hurt Djakovic's head badly with the brainbuster on the ladder however, Dominic countered that with a chokeslam to Adam Cole on the ladder. They were fighting on top of the ladder and Cole strikes Djakovic with the briefcase which Djakovic landed through another ladder and Cole wins this one. 

After the match, the rest of NXT, RAW and Smackdown destroyed each other. Rollins kicked Adam Cole's head then, Ciampa slowly walked to the ring and brawled with the man that's being called "Seth's not cool" by the Full sail crowd (get it? The Man? I'll stop). 

Not the best ending but the match was very good though. That Claymore kick from McIntyre to Djakovic looked great though as well as how Drew sold that powerbomb from Keith Lee. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Kay Lee Ray vs Dakota Kai - That sunset flip from Kai was great to see but that wasn't enough to defeat Kay Lee Ray. 

After the NXT UK Women's champion won the match, the rest of RAW and Smackdown came to invade obviously even a staredown between Io Shirai and Nikki Bella, I mean Kairi Sane happened for a moment. 

AEW 

Highlights. 

Rey Fenix vs Nick Jackson. 

A rare singles action between those two performers and it was good. Jackson knocked Fenix out with that German suplex on the ring apron. Fenix countered that with a modified muscle buster on Nick Jackson and wins this match up. 

Chris Jericho's Major Announcement. 

Le Champio's announcement is a thanksgiving party for himself and he struggled to spit out the word "sorry" so instead he let Jake Hager said sorry every time Jericho wanted to say it. Maybe he's ashamed the way he says sorry like all Canadians? 

Out came SCU and Scorpio Sky which Chris Jericho went back and forth verbally with Sky about Sky pinning the champion. 

Le Champio made his AEW title match official against Scorpio Sky and the rest of the Inner Circle had an advantage by beating all of SCU. 

The Jurassic Express rushed to the rescue and managed to get rid of Inner Circle. A very entertaining interaction as to be expected from Chris Jericho the GOAT. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Britt Baker vs Hikaru Shida - Shida won the match with a shining wizard. Not surprised if that was an easter egg to a certain significant other. 

A Dark Order Recruitment Video - Yea, that video was pretty much that and it was the most interesting thing AEW has done with that stable. 

A Diamond Dozen Dynamite Battle Royal - The last two wrestlers in that match will fight for a diamond ring next week. Don't know what that diamond ring will lead for a competitor to become number one contender for the AEW championship or something but will see what happens. 

Jungle Boy and Hangman Adam Page lasted through the end but MJF pushed Jungle Boy and MJF will now face Page for that diamond on next week's episode. 

Peter Of The Librarian vs Luchasaurus - Luchasaurus squashed him with an electric chair into a reverse face slam of some sort. 

Santana And Ortiz vs Private Party - A decent encounter. Private Party won the match with Gin and Juice thanks to an interference by Nick Jackson. Dustin Rhodes showed up and he got rid of Santana, Ortiz and Sammy Guevara after the losers of the match beat up Private Party. 

Jon Moxley vs Darby Allen - An okay main event with a very effective finish in the top rope underhook DDT.
