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.

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

NXT Takeover: 30 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeovers have delivered greatly throughout the "30 years" of Takeover shows.  This one, in my opinion, wasn't it. For a Takeover program, this was disappointing.  All of the Takeovers are A's or B's and Takeover 30 was a C at best.  At least, I like the stage production set.  pictures via WWE.com PRESHOW: Breezango vs Legado De La Fantasma vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch. Winner Faces Imperium For The NXT Tag Team Championship.  It was a fine match. Joaquin Wilde's ring gear was really cool even though it took a bit out of the seriousness from the Legado De La Fantasma stable. I'm just nitpicking though.  Breezango actually won the match and will go on to face Imperium for the tag belts.  MAIN SHOW: Finn Balor vs Timothy Thatcher.  Timothy Thatcher started off this match with a series of punches which he then later transitioned into various submission moves.  Pretty much, Finn has no choice but to adapt to...

WWE RAW 28/2/22 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another episode of Monday Night RAW aka a 2 hour podcast for an angry bearded white guy.  Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins spoke with Alpha Academy and………..  It led to a stunner from Kevin Owens to Chad Gable  I can't criticize the way Gable says thank you because after all, he's a chad.  The segment followed with a decent tag team match between two former rivals and the Academics.  And like their dating life, the Alphas took an L here.  This is the part where I would be mad at the tag champs getting pinned but those titles, as well as the entire tag division, are so meaningless, I don't have the energy to do so.  T-Bar vs Omos.  T-Bar lost a match and Omos can't wrestle for sh*ts. In other news, the colour of blood is red.  Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley And Liv Morgan vs Becky Lynch, Doudrop And Nikki A.S.H.  Bianca once again proves that she owns all of the EST by leading her team to victory with the KOD on Nikki Ash Ketchum....
