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.

My Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: A Broserweight Road Trip To Portland, Britt Baker Addresses Her Attack On Yuka Sakazaki Last Week.

While this was a typical night for AEW, NXT, however, had a go-home show to deliver just days before the next anticipated Takeover show in Portland, Oregon.  But, NXT's final show before the second Takeover of 2020 didn't bring it, unfortunately, in terms of quality as the 20th episode of AEW Dynamite was the better show this week even though AEW Dynamite is a hit or miss program.  NXT    Highlights.  Roderick Strong vs Bronson Reed. Before the match, a pissed off Roderick Strong demanded an apology from the Velveteen Dream given that Dream put his wife and child's face on his trucks.  By the way, Bronson Reed's theme song is killer and so is this match. A slow, technical, old-school type of match that wouldn't fit the big man on paper but the execution was a different story.  The lights turned purple and Reed hits the suicide dive but he missed a Samoan splash that led to a knee strike from Strong and wins the match.  Then,...

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

Roman Reigns Relinquishes The Universal Title Because He Has Leukemia.

I have a sad and unfortunate news to break. Two hours ago on RAW, Roman cut a great promo pretty much stating that he's been living with leukemia for over 11 years and the disease's return forced him to give up the universal championship. The segment ended with both shield members Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins gave a group hug to Roman and did the triple shield fist pump. Ever since that, fellow WWE superstars reacted to the news on Twitter and here are the tweets so far. An amazing human being, an incredible performer & a man I’m proud to be friends with. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Get well soon, champ! #ThankYouRoman https://t.co/jL1Q5dVvzs — #WOKEN, yet #BROKEN, Matt Hardy (@MATTHARDYBRAND) October 23, 2018 My heart right now .... Prayers for @WWERomanReigns 😞🙏🏻 https://t.co/9sqk0KfFnP — Lexi Kaufman (@AlexaBliss_WWE) October 23, 2018 He’s our locker room leader. He IS the business. He’ll be back. You go...
