The 5 News Week: The Parking Lot Brawl On AEW Dynamite Was Shot In One Take!?, The Reason As To Why Will Hobbs Was Signed With AEW.


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. 

The Parking Lot Brawl On AEW Dynamite Was Shot In One Take!? 


This week saw a parking lot brawl on AEW Dynamite that had me thinking whether this bout belongs in the conversation of best TV matches of all time. 

But, you might be surprised that the match was filmed in one take if you watch a sh*t tone of WWE or some action movies according to Tony Khan in a tweet reading…..


If a match made me think of putting in the list of best-televised matches of ALL TIME should tell you how outstanding the fight was. 

If you haven't seen it yet, go out of your way to watch it.  

Another Update Regarding Ivar's Injury. 

I wrote about this on last week's post but to sum it up, Ivar of the Viking Raiders suffered a cervical or neck injury during an 8 man tag match on RAW two weeks back.

And, based on PWinsider's report, it looks like Ivar isn't returning to in-ring action very soon. 

In the report, it mentions that Ivar did recently undergo neck surgery and the recovery time isn't short. 

This not only hurts his partner Erik but as well as the entire tag team division because that division has maybe 2 or 3 teams? 

This might be wishful thinking but I hope WWE is taking notes regarding the state of tag teams in their rosters. 

WWE 2K Battlegrounds Used Tessa Blanchard's Image.

WWE 2K Battlegrounds just came out and no, I did not play it unfortunately because I'm broke. 

Some content creators got the game before it's release and one of those creators, NewLEGACYinc noticed a drawn image that looked a lot like Tessa Blanchard (which it was her).


The likeness of Tessa Blanchard was used in the tutorial of the game's Royal Rumble match. 

The person that shot the image, Basil Mahmud, called out 2K (with a tweet later deleted) for not asking his permission to take the photo that he took. 

Mahmud did later say that he spoke with the folks over at 2K and the image will be removed in the latest patch of the game. 

Let me give everybody reading this an advice about the situation and how YOU can avoid this. 

If you're a broke boy or girl and want to use royalty-free stock images, Unsplash and pexels are two great sites that I've used for years.

However, if you don't mind paying up for images for commercial use or any other purposes, sites like Adobe Stock, IStock, ShutterStock are all fantastic options. 

Look, I've made the mistake of getting the images from a Google search before and it isn't ethical. 

Especially since artists pore in a lot of hard work into their designs with little to no pay. 

So, guys, do the right thing by putting it a little extra effort on research. 

The Reason As To Why Will Hobbs Was Signed With AEW. 

The Reason? 

Well, to put it simply, it was due to how Tony Khan was impressed by Will Hobbs' performance on an episode of AEW Dark as an enhancement talent. 

That was according to the most recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (from Sescoops). 

The report goes on to say that his push did begin at All Out. 

I agree with the owner of AEW on this one.  The dude is legit impressive. 

Daniel Cormier Had Some "Early Conversations" With WWE? 

In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Cormier (a fan of pro wrestling, by the way), mentioned how he's had some "early conversations" with WWE: 

We’ve been talking,” Cormier told Sports Illustrated. “We’ve spoken to some of the people over there in very, very early conversations. WWE is a company I’ve watched and loved my entire life.”

Daniel did go on to tell that he would like to work in the commentary: 

“Put me at the commentary table,” Cormier says. “Let me call the matches for six months and tell you how great these wrestlers are in the ring. I would love that, and I wouldn’t be faking it. WWE is something I’ve loved my entire life.”

I am not too familiar with Daniel Cormier's work but I can feel his passion for the wrestling business based on reading that short discussion. 


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

WWE Smackdown Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

  It is the season premiere of Friday night Smackdown even though WWE doesn't have an offseason.  Nevertheless, it was a decent program and had a WAY better ending than whatever the hell of an ending last year's premiere of Friday night Smackdown showed.  There isn't a women's match this week and all of the AEW fanboys are looking at this like, "sEe, WWE dOeSn't feATuRe wOmeN'S mAtChEs aLsO."  pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Smackdown 2020.  The show started off with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon highlighting the scheduled matches for Smackdown as well as the superstars.  Chaos then ensued thanks to a huge brawl. Then, the "super freak" Lars Sullivan came out and delivered the freak accident to Shorty G.  Somehow, Jeff Hardy attacked him and that led to the opening match of the night between Lars and Jeff.  You know, I'm kind of surprised that two white people in McMahon and Hemsley knew who Rick James is.  Maybe I'm igno...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Fyter Fest 2020 Came Back Swinging?

Last week, on this very series, I said that I enjoyed Great American Bash better than Fyter Fest.  Well, this week is the exact opposite. AEW came in swinging with night 2 Fyter Fest.  I've not liked a Dynamite episode in several weeks so it's nice to see that the show finally executed a great show since God knows how long.   NXT      Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Mia Yim vs Candice LeRae In A Street Fight. The match went underway after Yim quickly attacked Candice LeRae during LeRae's entrance.  In the crowd area, Candice tried to nail the suplex on the table but Yim got out of that position and kicked her to which she landed through the table.  The Streetfight concluded with LeRae striking Yim with the brass knuckles followed by a swinging neck from the top of the table onto a bunch of chairs and that's how LeRae defeats the HBIC.  A fun opening match even though...

THE Coherent AEW Take: Christian Dior, Dior. Eddie Kingston up in all the stores!

Ever since AEW Dynamite was on Saturday night for a bit, I've been WAY behind on AEW content so excuse my ignorance. And It's Full Gear weekend which means another PPV that would last longer than the Snyder cut.  Sheeit, I'll bet the collar and elbow hold alone from the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega championship match, is longer than the entire Queen's Crown tournament.  As far as how I feel about both programs this week, well.  They did an okay job on building towards the final AEW PPV of the year this Saturday. Rampage.   Highlights.  Bryan Danielson vs Anthony Bowens.  And no, the highlight doesn't include Max Caster's verses. I'll rather listen to f**king Riff Raff than Max Caster's dig on anything.  The worst part, people are probably going to look at this and say, "can't wait for a Max Caster's appearance on Wild 'N Out!"  With that being said, this opening match was good. Danielson wins with the rebel lock.  Eddie Kingston (wi...
