The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: An Emotional And Fantastic Brodie Lee Tribute Show.

 
I know this is the Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays where I recap NXT and AEW Dynamite. 

But, NXT was such a meh show that I had to only talk about a show that paid a great tribute to Jon Huber aka Mr Brodie Lee. 

Yes, it is a cliche saying but it was everything that I wanted and more. 

The show got me right in the feels, man. 

Kudos to AEW for not only providing us with a great tribute show but as well as supporting Jon Huber's family. 

AEW

Highlights. 

Pretty Much Everything.

I usually write bullet point notes during a show but this one was an exception. 

I put down my tablet and just watched the show without worrying about whether I wrote everything about the episode ya know? 

You wanna know the highlight of the episode? Brodie Lee Jr aka -1.


When he hit MJF with that kendo stick, I marked the F out man and if you guys have been a fan of mine, y'all know that I'm not a fan of the MJF character. 

The opening match absolutely KICKED A**. I sometimes forget how agile Colt Cabana is as a performer.

Chris Jericho said in commentary, "if you wanna cry, it's okay, damn it!" and that video package about Jon Huber as a family man made me cry. 


Anna Jay is showing off her technical in-ring abilities that I was impressed by. 

She's getting better and better and it's great to see wrestlers improve. 

Erick Rowan showing up to AEW that led to him bringing a poster that says, "goodbye for now, my brother. See you down the road" was so touching and meaningful given the detailed history between him and Brodie Lee aka Luke Harper. 


And finally, the AEW TNT championship was given to Brodie Lee Jr. 

Tony Schiavone announced via the episode's post-show that the current TNT championship design is retired. 

In my almost 14 years being a wrestling fan, I've never seen a wrestling company (at least in quite some time) that is so generous that they not only supported the family financially but also emotionally. 


AEW providing Brodie Lee Jr and Jon's younger son, Nolan with a lot of aid, should tell you how much the company is doing a great job on honouring Jon Huber. 

Stuff like that makes me feel better and hopeful that they're people who would simply just be there during the most difficult time in our lives. 

All I can say is, thank you, all elite wrestling and most importantly, thank you, Jon Huber.

A rare Saturday edition of 5 news week but if you're new here, I publish this weekly news article every Sunday and the format goes like this.  I report on 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately and I put them in one post.  Yes, there was a lot of news that dropped in a single day but since I'm posting this on Saturday morning, the 4 news this week is before Friday.  Without further ado, here are the 5 news week.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Three Big Returns, A Great Inaugural Women's Championship Match.

If you have been a fan of this site since January, then you'll know that I've completely rebooted my review process and now, I'm doing that again.  Don't worry, the format for my RAW, Smackdown and PPV reviews will still be the same but not on Wednesdays. So, here it is, My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays.  NXT The Highlights. Adam Cole vs Matt Riddle For The NXT Championship.  A match that opened this episode of the yellow brand, the original bro and the leader of The Undisputed Era tore the house down.  Whether it's Cole reversing the fireman's carry from Riddle into a backstabber, Cole hitting a Panama sunrise twice, a floating bro or the crowd chanting "Adam Cole, bro", it was a visual statement by NXT that the yellow brand is THE brand to watch.  Unfortunately,  Riddle felt short and ate the last shot but there was another highlight I wanna talk about….. Finn Balor Returns To N. X. T.  It's not a typo my friends, Finn ...

How Naomi's Royal Rumble 2020 Return SHOOK Black Twitter.

If you haven't been watching WWE for 10+ years, well first off, why are you here and secondly, can I be like you because I'm jealous?  Let me recap who Naomi is. She is a wrestler, actor, dancer, singer and a former women's champion who's been with WWE for 10 years.  In other words, Naomi is a future EGOT winner and you cannot tell me otherwise.  Thanks to her persona that resonated with the audience whether as a heel or a babyface, she has built up a following that is "ride or die" for the former funkadactyl aka stans which I am a part of.  Why? Because if there's one thing I have in common with Stan Twitter is that we love to call white people "ageing at the speed of crack".  She may be throwing glow sticks like an early 2010s Ellie Goulding music video, but she's a capable talent that can hang with the best of the best.  But, you read the title. This ain't about a career retrospect about Naomi (although I don't mind doing so), but ...
