WWE NXT Super Tuesday 2 | A Coherent Review

NXT Super Tuesday II | WWE

Apologies for missing NXT Super Tuesday numbra Uno. I had a bad anxiety attack. But, don't worry, I'm doing well now. 

How was NXT Super Tuesday 2? I enjoyed it. It is that simple.

Finn Balor vs Adam Cole For The Vacant NXT Championship.

Yes, the big main event encounter like this NXT championship match just opened the show. 

Nevertheless, it was a fun match. Cole at point, did a quick but impressive shining wizard. 

The match concluded with 1916 from the top rope and the prince is the third ever superstar to win the NXT title twice.

Balor was the right person to win the championship simply because Adam Cole had a 300+ day reign as champ. 

I think it's time for someone else to be known as THE NXT champion. 

After the match, Adam Cole congratulated Finn with the two sweet hand gesture. 

Babyface Adam Cole? Thumbs up. 

Shotzi Blackheart And Io Shirai Beat up Both Robert Stone And Aliyah.

Like the title above, they did just that until Shotzi gave the "I want an NXT title shot" face to Io Shirai. 

We are getting a match between Io and Shotzi next week so this should be fun. 

Candice LeRae invited Tegan Nox to her and Johnny Gargano's house for dinner to repair their friendship. 

However, later in the night, the dinner turned into a disaster as soon as Nox brought up the time she showed up in Mia Yim's place. 

Cool. 

Meanwhile, Timothy Thatcher was disgusted regarding Damian Priest as NXT North American champion. Decent promo. 

*ugh* Velveteen Dream vs Local Competitor. 

WWE Photo

Dream won the match (obviously because he defeated a local competitor) to which Kushida beat the sh*t out of Velveteen Dream. 

YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! 

I like this side of Kushida already. 

In a backstage promo, Breezango were happy that they'll beat "Imporium" again for the NXT tag team championship. 

That tag team division is straight garbage which is odd because that wasn't the case even a year and a half ago. 

Bronson Reed vs *ugh* Austin Theory. 

WWE Photo

This was aight. The big man defeated Austin with the splash. 

Roderick Strong vs Killian Dain. 

WWE Photo

Strong picked up the victory with a knee strike due to some outside assistance by Bobby Fish. 

Both members of UE tried to beat up Killian Dain until Drake Maverick came to the rescue.

Drake wanted to shake Dain's hand in gratitude for saving him but Dain hit the guy anyway. 

It was fine although I do appreciate the fact that Dain is still maintaining his heel presence despite the fact that he's teaming up with a babyface to fight the heels. 

Rhea Ripley vs Mercedes Martinez In A Steel Cage. 

WWE Photo

I've been critical about this feud and Rhea's recent booking but the match was great not gonna lie. 

Pun intended the bout was nothing more than brutality. 

Ripley walked out of the steel cage the winner with the Riptide through the table from the top rope which was a great finish.

Rhea has been losing some matches as of late so this was a suitable outcome. 

She hasn't looked that great in MONTHS. I'm happy to see that. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos

Like: The steel cage match, the NXT title match, Kushida's aggressive side, Dain maintaining his heel persona even though he's teaming with a face. 

Didn't like: Probably the fact NXT’s tag team division is horrendous.

My Coherent Predictions On: Money In The Bank 2018

Money in the bank has THE WORST buildup of 2018 so far (at least on the RAW side). Is it going to be worst than RAW this past few weeks or possibly backlash?  Will find out this Sunday but anyways on with the predictions Sami Zayn vs Bobby Lashley What can I say about this feud? ● No meaning behind it. ● No meaning behind it. ● And why's Bobby Lashley promo last night sounds like bubbles from powerpuff  or something? Nevertheless, It's a shame that both lashley and zayn are given a shitstorm of a storyline considering that their better than this. WINNER : Bobby Lashley. Bludgeon Brothers vs Luke Gallows And Karl Anderson WOW! Another match I don't give two fucks about. However if they want to make the show intriguing and unpredictable then I'll put the belts on....   WINNER: Gallows and Anderson. Big Cass vs Daniel Bryan. WWE made the right call in my opinion on moving big Cass to smackdown because he...

WWE Survivor Series 2019 | My Coherent Review.

The Survivor Series shows as of a few years has gotten better in terms of overall positives and I thought that this year will be no exception. It pains me to say this but the 2019 edition of Survivor Series was just okay. A few highlights but overall, not an offensive 3 ½ hours of wrestling to watch, to say the least. Oh, and I haven't seen the pre-show matches so I can't talk about it.  Team RAW In Kabuki Warriors, Charlotte Flair, Natalya And Sarah Logan vs Team Smackdown In Nikki Cross, Dana Brooke, Sasha Banks, Lacey Evans And Sasha Banks vs Team NXT In Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai And Toni Storm. Women's Survivor Series Match.  Io Shirai and Kairi Sane delivered some quick moves earlier in the match. Brooke delivered an impressive rolling Senton to Shirai. Given that LeRae and Io were hurt, they were both eliminated. Bianca Belair got rid of two women.  One, it was Nikki Cross with a roll-up and the other was Sarah Logan with a 450...

WWE NXT 24/4/19 | My Coherent Review.

This was a meh episode of NXT. If this is the first time that somebody watches NXT with this episode then you'll have a hard time convincing that particular person to watch another episode you know what I mean?  The Forgotten Sons’ Jaxson Ryker vs Humberto Carrillo.  I don't watch 205 live but I'm loving every time Humberto wrestles. The match ended in a double count out because Ryker was beating the crap out of Carrillo until Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan showed up to save the young luchador. Not a fan of the Forgotten Sons but this feud for some reason made me wanna watch those two teams fight and I don't know why exactly.  After that, Adam Cole was asked backstage in a photo shoot about the Roderick Strong vs Johnny Gargano match until Matt Riddle showed up and said that it's his turn which led to Adam Cole leaving the shoot.  Aliyah and Vanessa Bourne vs Candice LeRae and Kacy Catanzaro.  This was okay. The team of Candice LeRae and Kacy Cat...
