Does NXT continue to be the best weekly episodic wrestling show out right now?? Yes.

Shotzi Blackheart And Ember Moon vs Dakota Kai And Raquel Gonzalez vs Io Shirai And Zoey Stark. Winner Gets An NXT Women's Tag Team Championship Opportunity.

This multi-person screams the sentence, "quick-paced chaos". This match didn't have a dull moment and that's what differs from the rest of the program that features multi-person tag team matches, ya know what I mean?

Io Shirai's beautiful moonsault on Dakota Kai, led her partner Zoey Stark to victory along with a championship opportunity which should be a fun bout.

Johnny Gargano attacked Karrion Kross from behind. Later in the episode, Kross called out Gargano inside the CWC. The champ was sidelined with an attack once again by The Way's Austin Theory and it was followed by a brawl.

Don't mind the idea of this feud because I know for a fact that they'll pull off a very enjoyable match.

Roderick Strong vs Asher Hale.

Aka Roderick Strong's re-debut of some sort and he didn't miss a tone. It's as if Roderick has been wrestling on a weekly basis for several weeks now even though he hasn't been on TV in a few months.

Strong prevailed with a modified armbar (I'm not an expert on wrestling moves so to the two of you that reads this, don't come on here and shout, "OMG. YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHAT A SHIN BREAKER IS?)

The NXT breakout tournament is coming back and it begins on July 13th.

It's pretty eye-opening that all of the participants in the first-ever tournament were shown on the promotional ad except for one.

Cameron Grimes vs Ari Sterling.

Speaking of participants in the NXT breakout tournament. The match was fine. Grimes defeated Sterling to which the redneck goofball called out LA Knight for a rematch next week.

The million-dollar champion was in favour of a rematch under the condition that if Cameron Grimes loses then Grimes will be LA Knight's Alfred (butler for you uncultured folks).

Samoa Joe Does His Usual Enforcing.

Joe lets Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly talk while Samoa Joe stands there to make sure both guys do not lay hands on each other.

Of course, Joe's plan didn't go as it was initially thought as both dudes had a bit of a brawl.

Seeing how Joe treated Cole compared to O'Reilly, I'm hoping this tease leads to an eventual match later down the road.

Another set of competitors that had a war of words with each other was Msk, Tommaso Ciampa, and Timothy Thatcher before their title encounter at NXT's Great American Bash PPV.

Sarray asks William Regal if she can face Toni Storm in an exhibition. Sign me up!

Mercedes Martinez And Jake Atlas vs Xia Li And Boa.

Martinez took a nasty kick from Xia Li and Martinez landed awkwardly.

I'm hoping Martinez makes a speedy recovery because it looked scary. Because of that kick, the match ended by stoppage.

Bronson Reed vs Isiah Swerve Scott For The North American Championship.

Isiah Swerve Scott just became and that, unfortunately, is how Bronson Reed's short run as North American champion came to an end.

Based on the shenanigans on the outside by the rest of Hit Row, we may get a rematch of sorts but will see what happens.

It's disappointing that Reed didn't do much with that run but I can't complain that Swerve Scott is finally getting some shine. Good on him.

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.

Like: Isiah Swerve Scott's championship win, the number one contender's 6 women match for the NXT women's tag team championship.

Didn't like: Nothing really.

WWE Survivor Series 2018 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans reading this and welcome to my coherent review for Survivor Series 2018. Overall, it was a very entertaining show throughout with some minor issues and here's why. (KICK OFF SHOW) Tag team Survivor Series match This match was a great example of a skippable match until the last moments. Xavier Woods did the springboard elbow drop and both members of The Revival countered that into a shatter machine which look amazing. Minutes later, Scott Dawson hit a superplex to Jimmy Uso and an immediate frog splash from Dash Wilder to a near fall. After that, Both Usos hit a superkick to Dash followed by a Uso splash and just like that, the Smackdown team took the W which WWE wants to forget about that (so stupid). A decent match but with a boring start in my opinion. (MAIN SHOW) Women’s Survivor Series match Before the match started when Nia Jax’s music hit, she got volcanic heat from the Los Ang...

Netflix's The Main Event | A Coherent Review.

Last spring, WWE had announced that they've partnered with Netflix to create content via their movie division on the streaming service. In other words, Netflix decided to feature even more badly marketed and awfully made movies. Luckily, WWE's latest joint isn't that bad at all. Don't get me wrong, it's no " Marriage Story " but, it does pull off a capable effort of telling a story about being yourself (warning, this review contains a few minor spoilers). The premise of this movie goes like this. An 11-year-old wrestling fan named Leo (played by Seth Carr) finds a luchador mask that gives him superhuman strength and agility. He then applied his new-found powers to in-ring action where he competes in a $50,000 WWE NXT tournament. If it sounds familiar, that is because it's pretty much the premise of the film " Like Mike " with obvious differences like this movie is wrestling themed instead of basketball, it stars an 11-yea...

WWE Smackdown 20/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

That CM Punk return was so noteworthy, it blew this entire episode out of the water. That’s it. That’s the opening statement. Images via WWE.com Edge Wasn't Playing When He Said That He'll Put Seth Into Darkness. The show started off with the Rated R superstar saying that Rollins has made the guy find his heart when the blood runs black. In other words, he'll beat the shit out of Rollins at slamming of summer. Speaking of "the blood runs black", after Seth Rollins gave a speech on how he can't be on Sethy's level, the man that says "drip" more times than a white dude that streams on Twitch, was covered in black liquid following Gangrel's theme song playing in the background. Edge ain't f**king around. I appreciated the uniqueness of the segment and how it was a tribute to WWE's continuity (which if you've been watching WWE for a longer period of time then you'll know that WWE acknowledging their storytelling cohesion ...
