WWE NXT 31/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

The yellow brand might be the multicolour brand soon. I'm curious, where are the people that don't see colour, think about this change, huh? 

All lame jokes aside, this is the weekly coherent NXT review and I thought the episode was just fine.

Sarray vs Mandy Rose. 


Mandy Rose looked impressive in this bout. Rose "had a broken face" and was escorted to the backstage area while the ref counted to 10. 

As a result, Sarray won the match via a count-out. I wouldn't mind a rematch between those two women. 

Kyle O'Reilly vs Duke Hudson. 


Call me shocked but I never knew before last week or so that Duke is an Aussie. I assumed that he's a Floridian or something (did you just assume that all tanned white dudes are from Florida? That's problematic, Omar!). 

Hudson tapped out of the kneebar from Kyle O'Reilly. Cool. 


Ilja Dragunov was like, "Hey, I'm a champ now". Nice. 

Santos Escobar told Carmelo Hayes to stay out of the North American championship title scene.

And Cameron Grimes "accidentally" put his million-dollar belt on Zack Gibson's foot. That's for being a Liverpool fan, ya dope. 


Ember Moon wanted a match with Kay Lee Ray for next week's episode. Should be a decent match. 

Drake Maverick And Grayson Waller vs Imperium. 


The Drake Maverick and Grayson Waller team are like the duo of Ice Cube and Mike Epps in Friday 2 and 3 in that it'll never top the duo of the OG in Ice Cube and Chris Tucker (if you can't tell, I'm referring to the team of Drake Maverick and Killian Dain). 

Imperium prevailed here. Cool. 

LA Knight vs Johnny Gargano. 

Thanks to Johnny Gargano focusing too much on Dexter Lumis, Gargano ate the pin from La Knight. 

Gargano losing like that ain't helping him becoming the top heel (if the rumour is true because we just don't know yet). 

Raquel Gonzalez vs Jessi Kamea. 

Really? Do I have to tell you who won the match? 


Samoa Joe in an interview with Wade Barret was like, "I'll fight all comers'. I have to say, Wade Barret is really good at this interview thing. 


Roderick Strong vs Ikemen Jiro. 

Strong defeated Jiro in an alright match with a suplex into a backbreaker (now THAT is a finishing move). 

Tomasso Ciampa vs Ridge Holland. 


A series of kicks and a DDT from Tomasso Ciampa is how Ciampa won the match which is an odd booking choice given that Ridge Holland is supposed to be built as an unstoppable monster. Not a fan of that decision, honestly. 

Msk helped Ciampa in avoiding a further beating from Peter Dune and his brufs. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Sarray vs Mandy Rose, forgot to mention that Wade Barret is good at interviewing.

Didn't like: Ridge Holland losing.

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Fyter Fest 2020 Came Back Swinging?

Last week, on this very series, I said that I enjoyed Great American Bash better than Fyter Fest.  Well, this week is the exact opposite. AEW came in swinging with night 2 Fyter Fest.  I've not liked a Dynamite episode in several weeks so it's nice to see that the show finally executed a great show since God knows how long.   NXT      Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Mia Yim vs Candice LeRae In A Street Fight. The match went underway after Yim quickly attacked Candice LeRae during LeRae's entrance.  In the crowd area, Candice tried to nail the suplex on the table but Yim got out of that position and kicked her to which she landed through the table.  The Streetfight concluded with LeRae striking Yim with the brass knuckles followed by a swinging neck from the top of the table onto a bunch of chairs and that's how LeRae defeats the HBIC.  A fun opening match even though...

WWE Smackdown Season Premiere | A Coherent Review.

  It is the season premiere of Friday night Smackdown even though WWE doesn't have an offseason.  Nevertheless, it was a decent program and had a WAY better ending than whatever the hell of an ending last year's premiere of Friday night Smackdown showed.  There isn't a women's match this week and all of the AEW fanboys are looking at this like, "sEe, WWE dOeSn't feATuRe wOmeN'S mAtChEs aLsO."  pictures via WWE.com The Season Premiere Of Smackdown 2020.  The show started off with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon highlighting the scheduled matches for Smackdown as well as the superstars.  Chaos then ensued thanks to a huge brawl. Then, the "super freak" Lars Sullivan came out and delivered the freak accident to Shorty G.  Somehow, Jeff Hardy attacked him and that led to the opening match of the night between Lars and Jeff.  You know, I'm kind of surprised that two white people in McMahon and Hemsley knew who Rick James is.  Maybe I'm igno...

THE Coherent AEW Take: Christian Dior, Dior. Eddie Kingston up in all the stores!

Ever since AEW Dynamite was on Saturday night for a bit, I've been WAY behind on AEW content so excuse my ignorance. And It's Full Gear weekend which means another PPV that would last longer than the Snyder cut.  Sheeit, I'll bet the collar and elbow hold alone from the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega championship match, is longer than the entire Queen's Crown tournament.  As far as how I feel about both programs this week, well.  They did an okay job on building towards the final AEW PPV of the year this Saturday. Rampage.   Highlights.  Bryan Danielson vs Anthony Bowens.  And no, the highlight doesn't include Max Caster's verses. I'll rather listen to f**king Riff Raff than Max Caster's dig on anything.  The worst part, people are probably going to look at this and say, "can't wait for a Max Caster's appearance on Wild 'N Out!"  With that being said, this opening match was good. Danielson wins with the rebel lock.  Eddie Kingston (wi...
