The 5 News Week:Kofi Kingston on Vince's Reaction To His WWE Title Loss, Elias Might Be Coming Back From Injury!?

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.

Elias Might Be Coming Back From Injury!? 

The reason you haven't seen The Drifter on WWE television is simply due to a broken ankle sustained back in September which is why if you remember or not, the semi-finals match on Smackdown between himself and Chad Gable on MSG was cancelled. 

According to our resident expert in all things diseases, Dave Meltzer basically said on the Wrestling Observer Radio that Dave was told that Elias will show up at the end of October but given that it's early November now, Elias could show up "any day now.'' 

CM Punk And Colt Cabana's Trainer Working At The PC. 

Ace Steel. The person that trained CM Punk, Colt Cabana and impersonated Donald Trump in a rare intergender wrestling match on WWE TV against a fake Rosie O' Donnell aka the worst episode of Monday Night RAW. 

From PWInsider and Mike Johnson, Steel has now been "relocated to Orlando, Florida for the position" and that position is a full-time coach at the performance centre. 

He has been hired by WWE last month after doing some guest training earlier this year which WWE was actually impressed by to the point where they brought Steel in to produce in-ring scenes for the Netflix's upcoming comedy "The Main Event" a few months back and that movie will granted have fantastic marketing (an inside joke for you slow mofos). 

Why WWE Execs Didn't Move Shayna Baszler To RAW Or Smackdown? 

Well, according to Dave via a different Wrestling Observer Radio show, WWE had big plans for her and was going to be pushed as one of WWE's biggest stars like in the vein of Charlotte Flair and one of Baszler's opponents at Survivor Series, Becky Lynch but that plan was nixed due to NXT moving to the USA network. So, there you go I guess. 

A New Name For Steve Austin's Podcast On WWE Network!? 

Steve Austin's podcast is coming back to the WWE network but with a different name according to a WrestleVotes tweet back in Oct 23rd. Almost a full 4 weeks to this present day, WrestleVotes tweeted again stating:

"Broken Skull Session with Steve Austin. 

1st guest: The Undertaker. Official announcement is coming this week." 

Austin tweeted about an announcement coming soon hours before that. I wonder what would that announcement be!? 

Kofi Kingston on Vince's Reaction To His WWE Title Loss. 

One-half of the Smackdown tag team champions in Kofi Kingston recently spoke with Alex Mccarthy over at Talk sport and it was about his WWE championship run pretty much. Alex at one point, asked him about Vinne Mac's reaction when Kofi lost the prestigious championship and here's what he had to say:

"We definitely had some words. It was positive because it was very special for both of us. You saw the documentary, when I came through gorilla after winning, he had tears in his eyes and we’re all hugging, myself, Woods and [Big] E. Because, it’s been a wild ride, man. Vince has been on the ride with us and he was actually one of the only people to support the New Day when we were first coming up. Granted, we didn’t want to be three preachers [laughs], but he was the one that actually gave us a chance to go out there and be a unit. So it’s been a journey and a journey for all of us. "
Guys, I highly recommend to check out the rest of the interview. 

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

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
