AEW Dynamite 14/4/21 | A Coherent Review.

It is so refreshing that I get to review one show in a day instead of two shows in a day. 

The latest edition of AEW Dynamite was pretty good. As usual, the in-ring work is top-notch. 

Before AEW aired its opening intro, The Jackson brothers reminded everyone that a new and improved Young Bucks are coming due to the fact that they're tired of letting people walk all over them. 

A good promo actually. Didn't know Young Bucks are such good bad guys based on that dialogue alone. 

Also, something that happened backstage, MJF offered Mike Tyson a check because MJF believes to keep his friends close but his enemies closer (MJF has ACTUAL FRIENDS!? Who knew?). 

But, Tyson tore that check to pieces. 

The Young Bucks vs Death Triangle In Pac And Rey Fenix For The AEW World Tag Team Championship. 

You got folks on Twitter over analysing whether The Young Bucks' Nike shoes are fake or not (aka funny a** content). 

During the match, Pac and Fenix delivered a series of kicks on Nick Jackson which looked f**king cool. 

Pac nailed a beautiful blue thunder bomb on Matt Jackson to a near fall. 

This amazing match concluded with The Young Bucks ripping off Rey Fenix's mask which led to a double superkick and that's how The Young Bucks retained the AEW tag belts. 

AEW gave those guys some TIIIIIIIME! What a fantastic opening contest. This match notified me that Rey Fenix is legit that damn good on the squared circle. 


In an interview with Alex Marvez, Hangman Page completely dodged the question regarding The Young Bucks' new heel attitude. My man Page was like, "f**k them bucks". 

In another interview with Marvez, Chris Jericho and Mike Tyson told a story of how they've united each other to take out The Pinnacle. It was aight. 

Jade Cargill vs Red Velvet. 

Red Velvet as well as Jade Cargill, has been growing on me bit by bit every time I see them in the ring wrestling. We love seeing improvements.

The match was a bit short but I enjoyed it. Jade Cargill wins. 

Britt Baker explained to Tony Schiavone that she deserves to rank higher in the rankings because she has more wins than Red Velvet. 

Talk that sh*t, Doctor! 

Anthony Ogogo vs Local Competitor. 

With one punch, Ogogo won this match. Well, damn. 

Miro pretty much told the locker room in a promo to stay out of his way. Honestly, Miro splitting up with Kip Sabian is the best thing to happen to Miro. 

Now, the dude can focus on being portrayed as a Bulgarian beat.

Dax Harwood vs Chris Jericho. 

A solid encounter. Despite some outside shenanigans from The Inner Circle and The Pinnacle, Jericho nailed the Judas Effect to win the match. 

Oh, and Mike Tyson is now part of The Inner Circle which is cool, I guess. 


Kenny Omega's crew wanted to tell the world that they are that damn good. Don Callis super kicking the camera person made me laugh for some odd reason. 

Kris Statlander vs Amber Nova.

An okay match. Statlander defeated Amber Nova with the cradle tombstone.  

Christian Cage was brutally attacked by Powerhouse Will Hobbs because Christian wasn't going to join Taz's crew. 

Cage is facing Hobbs next week and I could not be more excited about it. It should be a banger of a bout. 

Darby Allin vs Matt Hardy For The TNT Championship In A No Disqualifications Match. 

Both guys beat the holy HELL out of each other. This was a crazy yet enjoyable match. 

@Ceehawk's favourite pro wrestler, Sting, saved Darby from a further beatdown by The Butcher, The Blade and Private Party.

Darby came out of that brutal bout still the TNT champion.  

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Death Triangle vs The Young Bucks, The Young Bucks' new heel persona, Jade Cargill vs Red Velvet, Darby Allin vs Matt Hardy. 

Didn't like: Nothing really.

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 ...

The 5 News Week: An Interview With MLW's Myron Reed, Quick Thoughts On Smackdown.

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. An Interview With MLW's Myron Reed.   via MLW Myron Reed has been in the pro wrestling scene since 2016 and picked up an impressive portfolio for himself.  Reed worked with current stars like AJ Gray, NXT's Joaquin Wilde, Matt Cross aka Son Of Havoc, AEW's The Lucha Brothers, Best Friends, and a whole lot more. via MLW So, I asked Reed about his time in OVW and whether being a tag team wrestler was the goal or not?  "Actually, I started in a small town called Central City (In Kentucky...
