The Late Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Did People Forgot There Was An NXT Episode?

The headline above has a point though. You guys forgot there was an NXT episode which by the way, was the go-home show for NXT Takeover: War Games.

So, it isn't a surprise that AEW Dynamite was The better show.

NXT  

Highlights.

Pat McAfee Talks Some Sh*t About Everyone Including Undisputed Era.

I could hear this guy talk about how much of a loser I and the rest of the fans are for HOURS. 

The reason being is that Pat makes simplistic sentences like "losers at the IWC" really charismatically funny. 

I will go as far as to say that he is in the top 5 best talkers in professional wrestling. 

All I'm saying is that McAfee is really damn good. 

Some Other Things That Happened.

Boa And Xia Li Beg For Forgiveness Again - I'm intrigued as to who's the black-hooded person. 

Legado De La Fantasma Lost To Leon Ruff And Damian Priest - Despite a bit of miscommunication, the champion and one of its challengers pulled off the win in a decent match. 

Also,  there were guys with Ghostface masks that surrounded the crowd area. Will they interfere in the triple threat match? 

I think so but will see what happens. 

Cameron Grimes defeated August Grey - I mean, the dude has an upcoming match so why would he lose?

As he was attacking August Grey with the strap, out came Dexter Lumis and he gave Grimes the receipt before War Games. 

Jake Atlas defeated Tony Nese - It was okay. It looks like Atlas is getting a shot at the cruiserweight championship based on his post-match promo (no sh*t, Omar). 

Grizzled Young Veterans vs Imperium Ended For Some Reason - This was supposed to be GYV vs Ever-Rise but Imperium attacked Ever-Rise because they "requested" a shot at facing the Grizzled Young Veterans. 

Both Zack Gibson and Fabian Aichner fell down on the outside and that's how the match ended. 

I get that NXT wanted to continue this rivalry but that was a lame a** finish. 

Timothy Thatcher Live Thatch Camp - A guy that feels like he loses all the time, has a lesson in his camp about distractions. Tommaso Ciampa showed up and they brawled. Cool. 

Io Shirai Is The Four Member Of Shotzi's War Games Team - No surprise here. Oh, and Shotzi Blackheart wins the women's War Games advantage ladder match. 

AEW 

Highlights.

Sting Is Here. 

Yes, the man that "does this and does that" makes his AEW debut as well as his return to TNT. 

If AEW had a full crowd, the reaction alone would've been Attitude Era level hot. 

Side note, hearing Tony Schiavone calling Sting's return was bittersweet. 

AEW announced that he has signed a multi-year deal with the company which begs the question. 

Is he going to wrestle? Because, right now, that's the million-dollar curiosity. 

Do I want to see him wrestle? Probably not. 

Why? Well, have you seen his match with Seth Rollins at Night Of Champions 2015?

Oh, and there was a tag team match between Cody Rhodes, Darby Allin and the FTW crew which was fine. 

Chris Jericho Issued An Ultimatum. 

Either Sammy Guevara and MJF get along or The Inner Circle is no more. This one has actual stakes and you know what? I like it. 

However, Jericho's match with Frank Kazarian was sloppy and just not good. 

Kenny Omega vs Jon Moxley For The AEW World Championship.

Does this match live up to the hype? F**k Yes!

This was the greatest ending to a wrestling show in quite some time. 

Will Omega have a face to face confrontation with the Impact world champion, Rich Swann? (if that's the case, take my f'ing money). 

Will Omega defend the AEW championship on an episode of Impact Wrestling? 

Will they be a team AEW vs team Impact Wrestling match at Revolution? 

A lot of intriguing questions are roaming around my head right now. 

This is an exciting time to be a connoisseur of all things professional wrestling. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Orange Cassidy And MJF Win Diamond Ring Battle Royal - I'm curious as to what winning the diamond ring does to a competitor. 

Does it lead to a title opportunity or something? 

Better yet, why should I even care about this Diamond Ring ya know? 

Britt Baker Defeated Leyla Hirsh - The bout was aight. Britt was then attacked by Thunder Rosa. 

The question is, what are some of the highlights of both episodes in your opinion? Let me know in the comments below and follow me on Twitter @omartheplayaguy. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE Survivor Series 2018 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans reading this and welcome to my coherent review for Survivor Series 2018. Overall, it was a very entertaining show throughout with some minor issues and here's why.  (KICK OFF SHOW) Tag team Survivor Series match  This match was a great example of a skippable match until the last moments.  Xavier Woods did the springboard elbow drop and both members of The Revival countered that into a shatter machine which look amazing.  Minutes later, Scott Dawson hit a superplex to Jimmy Uso and an immediate frog splash from Dash Wilder to a near fall.  After that, Both Usos hit a superkick to Dash followed by a Uso splash and just like that, the Smackdown team took the W which WWE wants to forget about that (so stupid). A decent match but with a boring start in my opinion.  (MAIN SHOW) Women’s Survivor Series match  Before the match started when Nia Jax’s music hit, she got volcanic heat from the Los Ang...

WWE Wrestlemania: Backlash 2021 | A Coherent Review.

Wrestlemania: Backlash or as I like to call it, Backlashimania, gets an enthusiastic thumbs up for me. I enjoyed the hell out of this PPV overall.  Images via WWE.com The opening intro was narrated by the greatest of all time, Batista and it was straight badass despite the fact it was pretty much a promotion for Zack Snyder's new film, Army Of The Dead.  If you've read my about page, then you'll know that I ain't talking about Zack Snyder movies because his fans are…… never mind.  Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka For The RAW Women's Championship.  Charlotte with the Cruella De Vil inspired ring gear was to quote Dolph Ziggler's old theme song, "perfection". The opening bout was fast-paced, high octane action that didn't have a slow/dull moment.  All of these women utilized quick grapples and strikes to their advantage.  Charlotte was this close to capturing the title but she was pushed to the outside, nailed the riptide to Asuka and that...

WWE NXT 2.0 16/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

I haven't reviewed NXT in two weeks and holy crap, I didn't miss much at all.  This week's show was BO. RING and I'm trying to make this interesting by adding my lame a** humour and you know you f'd up when I have to rely on my jokes to make this week's NXT discussion somewhat engaging.  Images via WWE.com   Tony D'Angelo vs Dexter Lumis.  The scary white man vs The spicy white man. WHO WILL SURVIVE!?  The answer is my favourite POC wrestler currently, Tony D'Angelo (that joke will never get old).  Johnny Gargano came to check on Dexter Lumis after Camelo Hayes and Trick Williams destroyed Lumis' hand.  Minutes later, all three guys in Dunne, Gargano and Hayes announced a triple threat match for the North American championship.  Should be a good match, is all I'm going to say about that.  Odyssey Jones And Jacket Time vs The Diamond Mine.  First off, Jacket time isn't a good tag team name. It sounds like me as a 5-year-old after wearing ...
