Few News I Guess: Brief Thoughts On Survivor Series 2021.

Since last week's news were as slow as……………. That's actually a lie considering the unfortunate mass release and the fact that my mental health has been through the roof for the past couple of days (thanks random anxiety attacks, appreciate it).

Some NXT Superstars Getting NAME Changes!? 


Trademarking their names only to let them go mere months later. Yay! 

Anywho, here are the name changes for some of the NXT wrestlers/other talents (from PWInsider):

Mei Ying aka Wendy Choo. 

Kellie Morgan aka Mila Malani.

Aja Smith aka Daphne Lashaunn. 

DA Brewer aka Dallas Irvin. 

Tom Castor aka Derek Sanders.

Cooooooool. 

WWE's Mexico Office Going To CLOSE?? 

Yes, people. Like any other exploitative multinational corporation, WWE has an office base in Mexico specifically in the country's capital, Mexico City which was opened in the early 00s. 

A report was published by the city's metropolitan site Periódico Correo regarding WWE shutting down their office over there *Dr Umar Johnston's voice* FOR GOOD! 

Wrestling Inc (aka the OG copy paste site) reached out to Titan Towers and they pretty much went like, "Nah. It ain't true. The base isn't closing." 

Do I think I believe in world wrestling entertainment here? Hell Nah, ninjas due to one reason. They legit closed down their Japanese office a few months ago. 

That's it. That's the take. 

Brief Thoughts On Survivor Series 2021.


This is the first time I've skipped reviewing a WWE PPV as a whole in quite some time.

The reason? Well, one, this was supposed to be my brief thoughts on Smackdown and two, this PPV has been given the same amount of love and care in terms of its build-up as WWE 2K20. 

Now how was this year's Survivor Series? In short, it was aight. There was nothing about this show that stood out to me other than the opening contest. 

Vince McMahon showed up with a golden egg-like, "see guys, If you can get at my level, you could just let go of the majority of your workers just to buy THIS!"  

The opening match was awesome. The "shoot, pew cowboys" type of action here worked well in this case. 

Kevin Owens left his team hanging like how most people left me hanging after a handshake attempt (a**holes). 

You know who could replace Owens and be a worthy challenger? Old man Adam Sessler because why not, right (for those unaware, this was a G4 reference)? 

By the way, I saw a comment somewhere regarding the men's Survivor Series team saying, "I don't like those males" and for some reason, it made me laugh. 

I know the battle royal was one big Pizza Hut commercial but you gotta give them credit, at least they didn't sponsor the klan pizza in Papa John’s. 

Oh, and the main event was aight. 

What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy? Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WWE RAW 30/12/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm back from a two-week review hiatus and honestly, it was refreshing but this ain't about me. You're here for my thoughts on the final RAW of the 2010s and it was decent until the ending.  I'm still in shock as to what did I just witness. I've not been this shocked from seeing an ending like that probably since watching the movie "Schindler's List".  Kevin Owens Wants To Take Seth Rollins And AOP Down.  Owens in a promo, says that the heel trio are disrespecting Rey Mysterio and shows footage of Mysterio losing the US title to Andrade in a house show even though the luchador wasn't 100%.  Seth Rollins and his friends came out and Kevin Owens immediately tried to attack AOP but that did not fail thanks to Samoa Joe and chaos has ensued to start off RAW.  Charly Caruso showed up to interview Samoa Joe about what AOP and Rollins did to him last week to which a bunch of security guards entered the locker room to get rid of Owens ...

WWE RAW 11/2/19 | My Coherent Review.

This go home show makes me wanna go home if I was an attendance of this show. In other words, RAW wasn't good and here's why.  Opening Segment.  The show started off with The Authority. A stable that I actually don't mind but that a different topic. Anyways, they run down the Elimination Chamber PPV card. After that, The Man Becky Lynch came out and Triple H said that he will lift the suspension if Becky apologizes to both him and Stephanie.    Becky then told Stephanie to shut her face and she refused to apologize. The segment ended with Hunter giving her two choices. Either Becky apologizes to them or Becky's WrestleMania match is off.  Compared to the segments on RAW and Smackdown last week, this was underwhelming.  Sasha and Bayley vs Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan vs Nia Jax and Tamina. Loser enters first in the Elimination Chamber match.  The match was fine. During the match, Bayley delivered two stunners on the ...

WWE NXT 25/5/21 | A Bit Late Coherent Review.

  NXT has once again, produced an engaging, well written, scripted and produced show. Why? Well *slaps his head multiple times* Here's why.  Images via WWE.com   Ember Moon And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez And Dakota Kai. The match ended with a win from the good guys to which they immediately got a BEATING from the NXT women's champion.  It is still so weird that Raquel made a u-turn to the good side and her babyface run didn't even last a week.  I will say, the opening contest was pretty good.  In a produced scene, Hit Row wants all of the championship gold. I'm hoping they fulfil the promise real quick because Hit Row is already one of my favourite groups in wrestling.  Speaking of promos, Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher simply stated that they wanted to beat the holy hell out of the Grizzled Young Veterans.  Zack Gibson and British Seth Green, James Blake, wanted to move on from Ciampa and Thatcher but they do not want to move on fr...
