WWE NXT 15/6/21 | A Coherent Review.

This is probably one of the best wrestling TV episodes of the year. I had fun watching NXT this week from start to finish and here's why.

William Regal Encountered A Familiar Individual. 

Karrion Kross with his antagonising promo towards Regal, proves to all of the people that said, "iS kRoss a hEEl oR A bAbYfAce!?" That the dude is indeed portraying himself as a piece of shite. 

Out came the returning Samoa Joe and he was offered by Willaim Regal to be an enforcer. Regal was about to quit but Joe's presence got him to change his mind. 

It is so oddly nostalgic to hear Samoa Joe utter William Regal's name like that. While it had a predictable outcome (those God damn dirt sheets ruining everything including my entertainment for some reason), the segment did just do one thing. 

It simply put a smile on my face. I think it would be extra cool if they replaced Regal with Samoa Joe as GM but I ain't complaining.

Breezango vs Imperium. 

Nice to see some decent tag team action that showcases what their tag team division is all about. 

Breezango won the match with an inside cradle to which they were immediately attacked *Michael Cole's voice* from behind to get their heat back of some sort. 


In Samoa Joe's first task as an enforcer, he broke up a brawl between Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly. Joe chokes Cole out with the coquina clutch. 

If a principal had an enforcer like Samoa Joe, I'm pretty certain that they wouldn't be a school fight anymore because man, Samoa Joe is intimating as f**k. 


Santos Escobar wants Bronson Reed to challenge him for the North American championship. 

Bruh, you just lost. What makes you think WWE would give you a championship opportunity? It's not like they've never done that before, right!? 

There's a battery logo shown in a teaser of a vignette and honestly, I have no idea who it is for. 

Kushida vs Trey Baxter For The Cruiserweight Championship. 

Hey, look. This was a fun cruiserweight championship match. Kyle O'Reilly was watching Kushida defeat Baxter on the entrance ramp. O'Reilly challenged Kushida to an exhibition next week.  

Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. I think I just came. I've been waiting for this match since Kushida showed up to NXT. 

The fact that it didn't happen sooner is a crime but I'm definitely looking forward to the match. 

In a backstage promo, Mercedes Martinez wasn't having it with Tian Sha, saying that she's beat anyone involved with Sha. 


Franky Monet was telling Aliyah and Jessi Kamea that Robert Stone is holding them back as performers. 

The turn is happening guys. Please credit this site for more scoops that have obvious conclusions! 

Raquel Gonzalez And Dakota Kai vs Kacy Catanzaro And Kayden Carter. 

The bad guys won. It's as predictable as anything really. 

LA Knight Turns On Ted Dibiase. 

LA Knight gave a speech that respected the million dollar man only to do the exact opposite with a beatdown onto the old man in a typical heel move. 

Cameron Grimes immediately showed up to the rescue and threw LA Knight out of the ring. 

Yo, am I actually buying Grimes as a babyface because that's exactly how I'm feeling right now (get it? Buying? Million dollar man? Million dollar championship?)? 

Speaking of people coming to the rescue, Io Shirai was attacked by Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell but Io was rescued by her newly formed acquaintance, Zoey Stark. 

I'm quite impressed by the idea of this feud ever since that scene took place. It gives all of these women something to do and the rescue at the end was a great example of long term storytelling kinda paying it off. 

The so-called "Diamond Mine" has been delivering vignettes for weeks now and it's announced that the Diamond Mine is coming next week. Will see what happens. 

Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher vs Grizzled Young Veterans In A Tornado Tag Team Match. 

Hey, look. A great match has happened, people! The team of Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher wins here. 

Maybe this might lead to a feud with the NXT tag team champions? 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Samoa Joe, the tornado tag team match, the Io Shirai/Zoey Stark/The Way feud, Cameron Grimes as a babyface, Kushida vs Trey Baxter. 

Didn't like: Nothing.

The 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

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. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

WWE Wrestlemania 36 Night One | A Coherent Review.

When they announced that Wrestlemania was going to take place in two nights, I was hesitant mainly because I prefer a single show with meaningful matches and not the exact opposite spanned between two shows.  So far, the wrestling Gods proved me wrong. Wrestlemania 36 Night número uno was a great show. WWE gave me an escape that is desperately needed especially in this unique circumstance and I'm sure some of you guys feel this way too. As a tradition on this site, I haven’t seen the pre-show match so I can’t talk about it. Now, on with the review.  Before the show, Stephanie McMahon stated the usual thing. You know "in these times, we will entertain you". They then had the compilation of all the singers that sang America the beautiful which is actually pretty cool.  That led to this year's pirate-themed Wrestlemania opening and it was unique obviously but what makes it different is the humour in it which was fine.  The Kabuki Warriors vs Alexa Bliss And Ni...

The 5 News Week: Master P Buying House Of Glory!?, NXT TV To Air In Different Arenas!?

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 . Sorry for not posting in two days. Just some personal stuff I gotta deal with and my Coherent Wednesdays review was a bit rushed and I want to nail it in a no pun intended, coherent matter if that makes any sense? Hopefully, my reviews will get better in the coming weeks.  Master P Buying House Of Glory!?  A great example of human beings having an unpredictable nature to them (ask Vince McMahon), Master P was interviewed somewhere in Manhattan and he announced that he has brought an independent wrestling promotion based in New York called House Of Glory or HOG which was founded by Brian XL and Impact Alumni Amazing Red in 2014.  PWInsider and Mike Johnson gave an update to this story stating that Master P will deliver the "muscle and production team" goi...
