The 5 News Week: MVP Injured!?

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.

Quick Elimination Chamber 2021 Predictions. 


Since this week's news is slower than that sloth in Zootopia, I wanted to showcase my quick predictions for 2021's Elimination Chamber PPV. 

By the way, my predictions are highlighted in bold letters: 

Bobby Lashley vs Keith Lee vs Riddle For The United States Championship (Update: Keith is apparently not on the PPV but my prediction is still the same). 

Nia Jax And Shayna Baszler vs Sasha Banks And Bianca Belair For The Women's Tag Team Championship  (yes, they're going to pull off the John Cena and Shawn Michaels bit of winning the tag team championship during a championship built for Wrestlemania). 

Drew McIntyre vs Sheamus vs AJ Styles vs Kofi Kingston vs Jeff Hardy vs Randy Orton In An Elimination Chamber Match For The WWE Championship. 

Kevin Owens (yea, unfortunately) vs Jey Uso vs Sami Zayn vs King Corbin vs Daniel Bryan vs Cesaro. An Elimination Chamber Match With The Winner Facing Roman Reigns Later In The Night.  

Roman Reigns vs Kevin Owens For The Universal Championship.

MVP Injured!? 


Montell Van Porter suffered a leg injury on this past week's edition of Monday Night RAW at least if you believe PWInsider and Mikey Johnson report about it.  

And yes, the report did mention that MVP was walking with crutches on RAW Talk which was true. 

Wishing MVP nothing but the speediest of recovery.

How Did WWE Knew Of Lacey Evans' Pregnancy!? 


When Lacey Evans announced on RAW that she was pregnant, a lot of people's reaction understandably so, were "EWWWWH!". 

Thankfully, it isn't what we think it is and Evans is legitimately pregnant  (congratulations to her). 

Now, how did the folks over at world wrestling entertainment find out about Evans' pregnancy? 

According to Wrestling Inc, they found out about her pregnancy on the day of Monday Night RAW and rewrote the script as a result.

There Are No Plans For Bo Dallas!? WOAWWWWW! 

So surprised am I right? Davey boy Meltzer said on Wrestling Observer Radio quote (from Cagesideseats):

“He’s still got a job. No idea what or why or anything. It’s a big mystery.”

By the way, Fightful select (from WrestleTalk) mentioned that Bo Dallas was attending Smackdown for a couple of weeks straight and the performers were happy to see him. 

I'm hoping that once Bo Dallas comes back, he turns heel and lives up to his potential but a man can only dream. 

What's Going On With The WWE Championship Situation For Wrestlemania 37? 

WrestleVotes will tell ya what's going on. 

Some of the matches on the Wrestlemania card like Edge vs Roman Reigns, Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt, Sasha Banks vs Bianca Belair, Bad Bunny on a tag match are "on the books" during a creative meeting. 

While the WWE championship and other matches are open. However, the source told WrestleVotes that "nothing is set in stone". 

Based on what I've seen on Monday Nights, it looks like either Drew is facing Sheamus or Bobby Lashley based on the way the CEO of the Hurt Business has been written for months. 

I do not hate either decision but who knows? 

Monday Night RAW will somehow mess those matches up to the point where I wouldn't look forward to either possible match. 


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

WWE Smackdown 12/11/21 | A Coherent Review.

While there were a few redeeming qualities about this week's episode of Smackdown, the show as a whole was kinda bleh to me. Images via WWE.com   Chaos Ensued Amongst The SmackDown Women's Survivor Series Team.  Sonya Deville introduced the participants in the women's Smackdown Survivor Series team to which a brawl ensued after Sasha Banks wanted to beat up Shotzi. Naomi came out to even the odds between the heels and the babyfaces in that scene.  And you know what all of that means? A 6 women tag team match, Playas. By far, the most impressive person in this match was Naomi. The finesse she showed with her series of kicks was *chefs kiss*.  Speaking of impressive, the crowd was BEHIND Aliyah and that's cool. Naomi's assistance led to Aliyah pinning Natalya to win the entire match. I said "Naomi's assistance" for a reason because as soon as that victory, Aliyah was taken out of the Survivor Series team.  God damn, Sonya Deville legit hates POCs succeed...

WWE RAW 22/2/21 | A Late Coherent Review.

I'm happy to say that I liked this week's edition of Monday Night RAW for the most part which is something I've wanted to say for several months.  Images via WWE.com Miz TV. Special Guest, The WWE Championship Around Miz's Waist.  Yes, my friends. The Miz is the WWE champion like it's 2011 all over again.  Miz was glowing about his WWE title win. The Hurt Business in Bobby Lashley and MVP showed up to tell Miz that they mentioned a deal with him regarding a championship opportunity for Bob Lashley.  Bob Lashley then threatened the guy to give him an answer in an hour and that's how the opening segment ends.  This segment does something that is rare in WWE TV and that is, simple storytelling.  Every single time, WWE has overcomplicated their storytelling and it's quite frustrating at times.  It's nice to see a story playing out that uses a minimalistic storytelling device. An hour later, Braun Strowman got into the mix telling Adam Pearce and Shane McMa...

WWE RAW 1/8/22 | A Coherent Review.

With Triple H making some changes for the overall WWE creative process and the end of the "Jeff Jarrett weekend", I gotta make some changes as well (at least for the site) because this is going to be the last solo RAW review since I'm going to combine both of my thoughts on RAW and Smackdown called "the cohesive WWE perspective".  So yeah, how was RAW? Well, It was one of the best episodes I've seen in a VERY long time. I guess no more, " RAW Is as insane and bad as the current season of Riverdale" jokes, right?  Becky remembered who she was during her encounter with Bianca Belair.  That promo ruled and as a guy that didn't like her heel run all that much since her comeback last year, I gotta say that I'm glad she's going back babyface due to the fact that heel Bex was so vanilla for my liking.  After Bianca showed some respect to the man, the new trio known as Io Sky, Dakota Kai and Bayley attacked Becky's injured shoulder.  They a...
