The 5 News Week: WWE Comes Back To MSG In 2020, An Update On Aliyah's Injury.

A rare Saturday edition of 5 news week but if you're new here, I publish this weekly news article every Sunday and the format goes like this. I report on 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately and I put them in one post. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.

An Update On Aliyah's Injury. 

Aliyah's heel persona is something I'm really warming up to. Unfortunately, Aliyah is taking time off due to her nose being broken but that kick from Xia Li to Aliyah's face last week on NXT TV was a work at least according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio earlier this week. 

Meltzer mentioned that the spot from Li was done to explain Aliyah's absence inside the square circle and the reason why Aliyah is taking an absence is that she's getting surgery on her nose. Wishing her a speedy recovery. 

Jimmy Havoc Fined For Using A Staple Gun. 

On this past week's episode of Dynamite, we saw Jimmy Havoc use a staple gun on pretty much everybody during the diamond dozen battle royal match. On the Twitta, AEW management has now "reprimanded Jimmy Havoc for utilizing a staple gun on Wednesday night in Indianapolis." 

They then went on to say that he's fine for his actions and he'll be fined again if he used a staple gun. I literally thought this was real when I read the headline but now it wasn't. 

WWE Comes Back To MSG For A Live Show In 2020. 

WWE returned to Madison square garden in early September for two nights in Monday night RAW and Smackdown and now, they're coming back to the garden for a RAW live event according to PWInsider and Mike Johnson

The date for the MSG show is on March 22nd, 2020 which is two weeks before Wrestlemania 36. The RAW and Smackdown Show on MSG was good so will see what WWE has in store for us on that show in 2020. 

An NXT Takeover Pre-show Match Is Set. 

Angel Garza is set to face Isiah "Swerve" Scott on the Takeover Wargames pre-show match following Garza's fantastic performance in the cruiserweight championship match last week against Lio Rush. 

This is the first time that an NXT Takeover pre-show will showcase a match so that's a no shit, Sherlock moment for you. 

Lacey Evans About Fans Thinking That She Moved To The Main Roster Early. 

The Sassy Southern Bell recently spoke with 101WKQX (that looks like a password) radio in Chicago with Kevin Kellam promoting the festivities that are going on with Survivor Series and Evans talked about how she didn't feel being called up to the main shows early (from Fightful): 

"Too early? Sweetheart. No such thing. People get what they deserve. I'm a hard worker and they saw that I could bring many things, including class to the main roster to Raw, to SmackDown on any brand that I'm put in," she quipped. "And that is exactly what I did. So, I mean, a lot of people may be mad because they're not in my position making the money that I'm making, but that has nothing to do with me."

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: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

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. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

The 5 News Week Look Back At Each Individual Highlight Of Zack Ryder, Lio Rush as Cruiserweight Championship, The Writer Behind The Otis And Mandy Rose Story.

April 15th, 2020 is a memorable day for me. It is definitely the saddest and noteworthy day of not only mine and the fans' lives but as well as the performers and staff who were affected by this. I am of course referring to the day that WWE released dozens of talented, hard-working people.  For those who are new, I usually report on the 5 major or minor news of the week and that was the original plan.  However, since this week is probably going to be known in the future for the releases, I want to instead document 5 of the performers and staff's individual highlights in their tenure with WWE.  Understand that without the hardworking wrestlers, producers, ring crew, writers and the rest of the staff doing what they do best, there wouldn't be a Playard Wrestling Post. Without further ado, Ladies and gentlemen, this is The 5 News Week Look Back.  How Zack Ryder's Popularity In 2011 Played A Role In WWE's YouTube Strategy Today.  It's hard to believe ...

Priscilla Kelly Used A Tampon In A Wrestling Match: Right Or Wrong?

    If you have been away from social media for the past day or so, a wrestler by the name of Priscilla Kelly (who by the way, recently competed in the second Mae Young Classic tournament) competed in a match in which she pulled out her tampon and put it on her rival's mouth. That struck the wrestling world on Twitter with differences of opinions. She did respond to this on Twitter and here's what she had to say: Hey guys. Ya know, it's all fake. 21+ show with a bar. Can't take life so serious all the time. Call me what you will... 🌹 — The Priscilla Kelly (@priscillakelly_) January 5, 2019 What do I think of this? I don't understand why this became as viral as it is considering that we've seen hardcore, brutal, disgusting stuff in a wrestling match before. However, it did get an "ugh" reaction out of me.  Was it right or wrong that she did this? My answer is none considering that wrestling is subjective and there's no such thing ...
