The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Adam Cole Explains It All, Another Meh AEW Dynamite Episode.


What do I think of Big Show doing commentary for AEW? I don't hate it. 

As far as how I feel about both shows this week, NXT without building a PPV is still better than AEW that is building for a PPV.

NXT 

Highlights. 

Johnny Gargano vs Dexter Lumis.


Dexter Lumis' in-ring work is like if I was watching Halloween and saw Michael Myers doing kip ups. Did I need to say that? Probably not but it was what it was. 

I like this match. It was surprisingly competitive given the way (get it? The way?) Dexter Lumis was written. 

Xia Li Continues To Dominate Again.  


Yes, she's been beating pretty much the same set of people for weeks but I don't care. Xia Li hasn't looked more dominant than ever. 

She's legit one of the best things on the show right now. 

Karrion Kross vs Santos Escobar In A Street Fight. 


I said in my previous that a match between Escobar and Kross is a potential dream match. 

And for me, it exceeded. They BEAT THE HELL out of each other. And of course, Kross wins. 

Adam Cole Explains It All. 


Cole showed up to CWC feeling sorry for Kylie O'Reilly and blamed himself for the recent attacks against O'Reilly. 

Roderick Strong interrupted, basically saying that Adam words are full of sh*te. Finn Balor stormed to the ring and he brawled with Cole but he somehow put the Irishmen down. 

Cole started to cry and Strong actually hugged the guy but he went to "dick kick city" as Brian Zane would like to put it, from Adam Cole baybay. 


I love how Finn Balor was the afterthought in all of this. It's so hilarious to me for some reason.

Bobby Fish's input would be cool but I get why they didn't do it. 

I am all in on Kylie O'Reilly moving on as a legit singles star and what better way to do that than feuding with Adam Cole. 

Yes, NXT pulled the "best friend now bitter rivals" a LOT but the use of it, in this case, isn't bad at all. 

Some Other Things That Happened.

Tyler Rust vs Leon Ruff - Before the match, Malcolm Bivens mentioned that Tyler is the "diamond on the Rust" (nice play with words). 

That match didn't happen because Isiah Swerve Scott attacker Ruff once again.  

Io Shirai defeated Zoey Stark - So, is Zoey Stark related to Tony Stark (try again, Omar. Better luck next time)? 

After the match,  Toni Storm showed up to challenge Io Shirai for the women's championship and Io basically said, "anytime, anywhere". 

Grizzled Young Veterans defeated Drake Maverick And Killian Dain - God, Drake Maverick and Killian are so damn adorable together. 

AEW

Highlights. 

Ricky Starks And Brian Cage vs Griff Garrison And Brian Pillman Jr aka the Vancity Blondes.

Garrison and Pillman Jr has improved bit by bit every time I witness those guys wrestle. They're so entertaining to watch as a duo. 

The bad guys win, of course, but then, Darby Allin and Sting came out and brawled with Taz's crew. It was aight.  

Nyla Rose vs Britt Baker. 

This might be an unpopular opinion but Nyla Rose is legit a fantastic in-ring performer. 

The same goes for Britt Baker. And it isn't a surprise for me that they delivered a good match. 

Nyla Rose advanced in the tournament thanks to her devastating sit-out powerbomb. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Jon Moxley defeated Ryan Nemeth - Moxley has not only faced Dolph Ziggler, but Jon has also now faced Dolph's brother, Ryan Nemeth. 

Moxley was then glowing about the barbed wire deathmatch for the AEW title at Revolution. I mean, the dude was once known as the "lunatic fringe". 

Jake Hager defeated Brandon Cutler - The Young Bucks kicked Hager's head off to which they called out Chris Jericho and MJF. 

Chris Jericho and MJF via the parking area showed them their beat-up father. 

The last time I checked, isn't The Young Bucks heels at one point last month? I'm legit confused. 

Private Party in Isiah Cassidy lost to Hangman Page - Page is getting support from fellow Dark Order member, John Silver (yea, no sh*t, Omar). 

Matt Hardy threw Alan Angels through a table and Hardy immediately ran from the arena. 

Heel heat right there from Matt Hardy. 

Lance Archer defeated Rey Fenix with the winner being in the  "Face Of Revolution" ladder match - The main event was fine for what it was. 

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 RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending.  I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List".  Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down.  Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%.  Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW.  Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...

WWE RAW 11/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show makes me wanna go home if I was an attendance of this show. In other words, RAW wasn't good and here's why.  Opening Segment.  The show started off with The Authority. A stable that I actually don't mind but that a different topic. Anyways, they run down the Elimination Chamber PPV card. After that, The Man Becky Lynch came out and Triple H said that he will lift the suspension if Becky apologizes to both him and Stephanie.    Becky then told Stephanie to shut her face and she refused to apologize. The segment ended with Hunter giving her two choices. Either Becky apologizes to them or Becky's WrestleMania match is off.  Compared to the segments on RAW and Smackdown last week, this was underwhelming.  Sasha and Bayley vs Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan vs Nia Jax and Tamina. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.  The match was fine. During the match, Bayley delivered two stunners on the ...

WWE Smackdown Live 30/10/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown Live yesterday was a skippable show other than the opening segment and match in my opinion. Now usually on my RAW/Smackdown Live review, I break down what's good, what's ok and what's bad. For the first time, I'm only gonna tell you what's ok given that this show was again a skippable show and here we go.  WHAT'S OK The opening segment  This is the probably one of if not most noteworthy moment this week mainly because as you might know, there were reports going around that John Cena and Daniel Bryan were out of Crown Jewel and the reports are indeed true and it makes sense, especially for John Cena considering that he's an actor now and he needs to maintain his PR status. The segment itself was decent. Loved both guys' intensity and that segment leads to a WWE championship match and speaking of which............. Daniel Bryan vs AJ Styles  Decent match. Expected a better from these two but again, decent nevertheless but...
