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.

WWE Smackdown 21/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

  Another week, another time Pat McAfee shows me why he's better than Corey Graves. Both in the ring AND on the commentary table.  As far as how I feel about this week's episode, it ain't good, people. It ain't good.  An Image via WWE.com   Sethy Mane Wanted A Tag Partner So….………. That he faces The Usos later in the show and if drippy Jesus wins, 2 out of 3 members of the Bloodline are barred off ringside in the blue title encounter (in case you were wondering, Kevin Owens was Seth's tag partner).  BUTTTTTTTTTTTT! The tribal chief had other ideas. He proposed a pitch where if the "burn it down" man loses the tag match, the Rumble match is gone, FINITO!  Bully Ray probably saw Seth Rollins' uttering Jox Moxley's name and reacted, "HOW DARE YOU!! BLASPHEMY!"  Fortunately for SR The Drip Mane, he got what he wanted via a DQ finish thanks to a superman punch from Roman Reigns. While the ending did protect the tag champs, the consequences of i...

A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

  Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess?  Smackdown.  The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k.  The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself.   As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title.   Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship.  Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on V...

WWE Smackdown 17/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

This recent instalment of Smackdown was decent.  The women, for the most part, was the standout in this program and it honestly carried the show from a meh to a decent watch.  The show started off with Jeff Hardy and Sheamus talking about the upcoming bar fight which you can scroll down to read my thoughts on it.  Sasha Banks and Bayley Gives Us A New Perspective Of The Word "Greatness".  The so-called "golden role models" were praising their greatness to which Nikki Cross was furious about the way she lost at Extreme Rules.  So, Nikki wanted a rematch for the SmackDown women's championship and Bayley accepted that bout if Nikki faces her best friend, Alexa Bliss to determine the number one contender.  That match started immediately after this segment and it was a good opener.  Bayley and Sasha Banks were entertaining in the commentary as per usual.  When Corey Graves brought the fact that Bayley didn't want t...
