The 5 News Week: WWE Upset At The Brodie Lee Segment!?, Vince McMahon Assumes Fans Leave Certain Plot Holes!?

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.

WWE Upset At The Brodie Lee Segment!?

Backstage Notes On Brodie Lee's AEW Debut

On last week's edition of this very series, I talked about how the reveal of the exalted one, Brodie Lee was the original plan to lead the dark squad. Well, we got a different Brodie Lee story in the form of WWE angry at a particular segment.

So, what was the segment? If you haven't watched this past week's AEW Dynamite episode then basically, Brodie Lee had dinner with his followers in Alex Reynolds and John Silver.

The main highlight of this segment was when Lee was upset at John Silver for eating the steak before him among other things that angered him such as when Sliver sneezed and Lee was absolutely livid. So, why would WWE be angry at a wrestling segment from another pro wrestling company?

There were stories in the past in which Vince hated when somebody sneezed as well as the fact that he hated someone that eats after him. Hmmm? If you believe what Dave Meltzer said in Wrestling Observer Radio with Bryan Alvarez (from sescoops), Meltzer said that scene was a dig at Vince McMahon and WWE didn't take that lightly.

That Vince McMahon easter egg in that segment went over my head like damn I'm an idiot! Am I the only one? Just me? Okay.

Reason Why Murphy Wasn't On RAW This Past Week.

Murphy Says He's Learning a Lot From Seth Rollins, Talks Working ...

According to PWINSIDER and Mike Johnson, the reason why the former RAW tag champ didn't show up on RAW is that Murphy "was not clear to appear".

He's currently not scheduled to appear on Wrestlemania 36 tapings. I don't know specifically what he isn't clear for but we will find out soon.

Vince McMahon Assumes Fans Leave Certain Plot Holes!?

Vince McMahon: All His WWE Controversies And Legal Troubles | True ...

Crafting a story with continuity can be a challenge and to those who've managed to do that on top of making that piece of content enjoyable to watch is something to be praised for in my opinion.

Leaving that continuity out of the equation can lead to a narrative mess if the story is not good (I'm looking at you, Fox X-men movies).

But sometimes, sacrificing continuity for a well-told story is worth it as in this case, Vince McMahon tried to do that by having the audience ignore certain plot holes according to what Meltzer said on Wrestling Observer Radio quote (from superluchas):

"Part of this internal problem in WWE is because Vince McMahon doesn't have a very good memory, and he hopes the fan base will forget certain holes in the stories."

Here's my take. When there's a cool concept and that concept makes no sense then it is worth the risk for the enjoyment of the fans. However, That doesn't mean a concept will be executed properly though.

I could see some fans be upset at Vince for that and I get it but when you step into the creator's mind, leaving out certain plot points can either be beneficial or hurt the story they're telling so it's really a tough choice to make.

An Update On Rezar's Injury.

www.wwe.com/f/styles/og_image/public/all/2019/0...

2 weeks back, Rezar suffered an injury, a torn bicep due to a crossbody he took from Montez Ford during an 8 man tag between himself, his fellow partners in Akam, Seth Rollins, Murphy vs The Street Profits and The Viking Raiders on RAW.

According to, you guessed it, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Rezar is getting surgery and it is believed that an injury like that will have a 6 to 8 months recovery time.

His tag partner, Akam just came back to in-ring action like months back from knee surgery. I feel so sorry for those guys. Hopefully, Rezar makes a speedy recovery.

WWE Network Releases The Uncensored Versions Of The Broken Skull Sessions.

It is natural of Stone Cold Steve Austin to drop in a crap ton of F-bombs and other curse words so for WWE to censor it just doesn't feel right especially in his own show.

Apparently, WWE had a change of heart because the company has announced that they're releasing uncensored episodes of the Broken Skull Sessions on the WWE network.

Given that the network is currently free, this is a definite must-watch for those who haven't seen the show and you're getting additional benefit of hearing Stone Cold along with his guests, cursing left and right. Oh, Hell YEAHHH!!

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

Will Hobbs. Professional Wrestling's Powerhouse

"What's the most powerful house you can think of? Perhaps a bungalow, something that's low, unshakable, that kinda thing? ” Hey Ew, 2022 Think of the greatest big men in the history of the business. Big Van Vader who represents pure unadulterated aggression that seamlessly benefits his ferocious in-ring style ( see his match with Mitsuharu Misawa for more information). Bam Bam Bigelow who's unpredictability inside the ring like his flying headbutts and moonsaults has made him spectacular to watch. The Undertaker who have built a sense of aura by masterfully marching down the ring, creating anticipation in the process as well as constructing an expression of a man who hates video games and wants “men to be like men” . And then there's Powerhouse Will Hobbs. A man who I believe in years to come is the heir apparent to the throne of “greatest big men in wrestling” and for good reason. Mr “I Break Backs Like Bane” possesses a power that belies his exuberance. Why ...

WWE Smackdown 29/5/20 | A Coherent Review.

Other than the opening act, I thought this was a good effort from the blue brand once again. One other thing that bothered me about this episode was that it lacked some continuation for the universal championship feud other than a highlight clip but I'm just nitpicking. A Car Accident Happened!? The episode started off with a car accident that got Elias badly hurt and Braun Strowman watching all of this unfold, telling Kalya Braxton that he hopes that somebody catches that SOB that did this. The person that was also hurt and was behind was Jeff Hardy and it involved some alcohol in his system. Because of it, Hardy was arrested and taken to a local police station for further investigation. That was my biggest fear for the drinking Hangman Page persona and now, it is Jeff Hardy's story you know, the same guy that had ACTUAL DRUG AND ALCOHOL PROBLEMS IN THE PAST!? This is so wrong in so many ways. Turning someone's person...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With Musician John Kiernan.

WE'RE BACK LADIES, GENTLEMEN AND NB! Now, what did I miss from the several week hiatus? *Scrolls down at the news feed* a billionaire said something stupid. Monday Night RAW is still duh and uninspired. Mass release of talent by WWE. So……. Same old sh*t? Figures. For those unaware (pretty much everybody), The 5 News Week is where I showcase 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have the time to do separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 News Week. An Interview With Musician John Kiernan. I kick things off with an interview from a guy that I'm hoping (as a musician) appreciates Brie Bella's theme song because my music tastes suck, musician John Kiernan. If the name sounds familiar to you, it’s probably because you’re listening to a podcast that loves shouting out the names John “loose cannon” Lopez and ‘Beast Mode” Brock Joseph at the beginning. Kiernan has composed and straight-up killed it in the pro wrestling musi...
