AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter.

Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston. 

Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway. 

A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking. 

What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa. 

Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down. 

It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac.

I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out? 

Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of either winner of the number one contender match. Don't f**k it up, Tony! 

Cody Rhodes vs QT Marshall. 

Those two guys didn't waste any time brawling with each other. 

They had a good old fashioned wrestling match sprinkled in with some offensives from Arn Anderson to QT Marshall and I enjoyed it. 

In other words, this is a wrestling fan's match (not trying to be a gatekeeper. I'm just stating that it's a good call back to the matches of 30/35 years ago). 

After Cody Rhodes defeated QT Marshall, Rhodes took a beating from Anthony Ogogo thanks to the least controversial move in wrestling. 


In a backstage interview with Alex Marvez, Scorpio Sky said, "Riddle me this, riddle me that, who's afraid of the big, black bat?" Obviously referring to Sting. 

Out of ALL movies Scorpio has quoted, why Batman Forever? Sky could've used a  quote from a much superior Batman movie aka Batman And Robin. 

Darby Allin interfered in the backstage interview but that came at a cost as he was thrown on to concrete stairs. 

Britt Baker squashed a local competitor named Julia Hart and there's nothing to write home about. 

The Jurassic Express vs SCU vs The Acclaimed vs Varsity Blondes. Winner Faces The Young Bucks For The AEW World Tag Team Championship Next Week. 

A decent match overall. Side note, The Acclaimed's Max Caster needs to chill with his weekly disses like sheeesh, they were brutal. 

SCU picked up the victory and will go on to face The Jackson brothers for the tag belts. 


A video promo had aired about Jonny Mox's match with Yugi Nagata for the IWGP United States championship.

I am the resident WWE shill but this one actually made me look forward to the title bout next week. 

The power of video packages, am I right?

Miro is challenging Darby Allin for the TNT championship on next week's episode of Dynamite. 

Miro's portrayal as a beast has been nothing more than fantastic. This is the Miro I've been wanting since his arrival last year. 

It Is Time For BLOOD AND GUTS And…………….. 

It was…….fine. The blood was definitely there in this match. The "guts'' part? Well, that's a definite no.

The bad guys prevailed at the end due to the rest of the Inner Circle surrendered after witnessing MJF wanting to push Chris Jericho through the entrance ramp but the kid did it anyway. 

I wanna briefly talk about people's reaction to Chris Jericho's bump from the top of the cage.

Yes, I do believe that the spot could've used a better camera angle.

However, the way people on Twitter reacted to the spot was TOO overblown like as if the world is about to end. 

Mistakes happen during production especially when you're filming a live televised event on a weekly basis. 

Also, to all the people that were mad at Shotzi Blackheart's tweet, it's just wrestling guys. It ain't that deep. 

Also, also, to all the people that LITERALLY WANTED a 50-year-old Chris Jericho falling on concrete, one, y'all are INSANE and two, it's just wrestling. It ain't that deep. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Cody vs QT Marshall, the video package for the Jon Moxley and Yugi Nagata match. 

Didn't like: The odd booking decision early in the Jon Moxley, Eddie Kingston, Kenny Omega and Michael Nakazawa match, the ending of the Blood And Guts match could've utilized a better camera angle.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WWE Smackdown 15/1/21 | A Coherent Review.

Smackdown was once again, an enjoyable 2 hours of television. I bet I blew your mind when I said that, right?  Something that blew MY mind (kind of) was the 40k OLED HDR 345000 FPS 120000 gigawatts camera they used and BOY, it was CRISPEEEE!  Images via WWE.com Jey Uso's Face To Face Confrontation With Shinsuke Nakamura.  The segment kicked off with Jey Uso's promo about his official declaration into the Royal Rumble match as well as Shinsuke Nakamura's performance last week at the Gauntlet match.  Out came Shinsuke Nakamura himself with his OG theme song which confirms that he's on the good side (no f'ing sh*t, Omar).  Nakamura  called Jey Uso a puppy for Roman Reigns. The king of strong style struck first which led to a match between both guys.  The match was prettay, prettay, pretty good. Shinsuke was distracted by Cesaro's music.  The reason why his music hit?  Well, the Swiss cyborg joined as a guest commentator and the commentators aske...

WWE Hell In A Cell 2020 | A Coherent Review.

WWE is continuing the streak of shorter PPVs and as a guy that lives overseas, I don't mind WWE doing this even if the fans come back to arenas.   Also, The 2020 edition of Hell In A Cell had a decisive and conclusive ending. Yayyyyyy!  The show itself was okay but it did have its moments, to say the least.  pictures via WWE.com Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso. Hell In A Cell I Quit Match.  I gotta say.  It is so weird to hear boos that WWE adds in the background for Roman Reigns given the history they've had in altering actual boos from the crowd many years ago.  It is also weird for WWE to open this show with a match that main evented the previous PPV. The question is, was it worth it? Heck yeah, dude.  Both men hit each other's finishers not once but twice and it wasn't enough for Reigns and Jey Uso to quit.  At one point, the match was turned into a strap match of some sort because Roman and Jey tied themselves with that strap. Jey used the strap...
