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 Smackdown Live 30/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown Live yesterday was a skippable show other than the opening segment and match in my opinion. Now usually on my RAW/Smackdown Live review, I break down what's good, what's ok and what's bad. For the first time, I'm only gonna tell you what's ok given that this show was again a skippable show and here we go.  WHAT'S OK The opening segment  This is the probably one of if not most noteworthy moment this week mainly because as you might know, there were reports going around that John Cena and Daniel Bryan were out of Crown Jewel and the reports are indeed true and it makes sense, especially for John Cena considering that he's an actor now and he needs to maintain his PR status. The segment itself was decent. Loved both guys' intensity and that segment leads to a WWE championship match and speaking of which............. Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles  Decent match. Expected a better from these two but again, decent nevertheless but...

WWE Smackdown 24/4/20 | A Coherent Review.

This week's Smackdown show was decent but it wasn't as strong as the previous weeks and *hits his head a few times* here's why.  The New Day Celebrates Their Title Victory. The show kicked off with the now 8th time WWE tag team champions, The New Day and like the title above, they were celebrating their big title win last week (No sh*t, Omar).  During the segment, Kofi mentioned that there's nothing wrong with pointing out that they have more title reigns than The Hart Foundation, Edge and Christian, Demolition, The New Age Outlaws etc because it's them being proud of their accomplishments.  Out came Lucha House Party, The Miz and John Morrison and they pretty much said that they deserve a title shot. The Forgotten Sons showed up to tell The New Day, Lucha House Party and every other tag team watching that they will never be forgotten.  They lived up to that statement as the Forgotten Sons destroyed Lucha House Party and The New Day.  ...

WWE RAW 28/12/20 | A Bit Late Coherent Review.

Before I start this review, I wanna say rest in peace to Jon Huber better known as the person behind the character of Luke Harper and Brodie Lee.  It was a tough, painful 3 days for the pro wrestling industry and I certainly felt that.  If there's one thing I've learned from the number of great stories being told by the people he has worked with is that Jon is a charming, funny and overall a fantastic human being that loves his family.  After reading the countless amount of fantastic tribute posts (including from the likes of Molly Belle of Wrestle Inn and Andrew Thompson of Post Wrestling ), that bit about Jon as a family man made me think of my current relationship with my father and the ways I'm trying to improve from my standpoint.  I know this is a cheese pizza saying but tell the people you cared about that you love 'em because that line might make their day.  So. Thank you, Jon Huber, for being the light that brightens everybody's darkness.  Now, Ho...
