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.

AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter. Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston. Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway. A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking. What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa. Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down. It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac. I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out? Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of ...

WWE RAW 5/10/20 | A Coherent Review.

I have not said this in a RAW review in a very long time but the show as a whole was straight up dogsh*t awful. It's so bad that I didn't like one ounce about this program. pictures via wwe.com Randy Orton Remembers His Match At Clash Of Champions. The show started off with Randy Orton recalling certain aspects about the WWE championship match at Clash Of Champions. Orton goes on to say that Drew doesn't deserve the championship because the legends interfered in the ambulance match. The promo ended with Orton bringing up the fact that he beat up four legends last week on RAW (again, explain the physics behind this?). Drew showed up and he laid waste on the guy. Randy has been quite exceptional in the dialogue department but this ain't it. The promo actually put me to sleep and the show didn't even hit 10 minutes up until that point. If they suddenly end the rivalry like nothing happened, while it doesn't make sense, I'm all for it be...

WWE NXT UK Takeover: Cardiff | My Coherent Review.

via WWE I don't watch or review the first NXT UK Takeover for some odd reason but I'm so glad I did because that was like the main NXT Takeovers, was absolutely great to watch. I'm just speechless and if you have watched the show then you'll know why (also, if you somehow didn't watch this show, what are you doing? Go and treat yourself with some wrestling goodness.) Noam Dar vs Travis Banks. A very enjoyable opening match. Noam Dar proves that he's great at what he does with so many submission holes because if you don't know, I'm a technical wrestling connoisseur. Noam Dar won the match with a standing shining wizard. Cesaro vs Ilja Dragunov. Always great to see Cesaro do what he does best and that's a fight inside the square circle. So, Ilja called out Cesaro because Cesaro's looking for an open challenge and Cesaro obviously picked his challenger. The Swiss Cyborg started off this match by throwing Dragunov to the outside ...
