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 (with the most New York fit I've ever seen) ain't too happy With CM Punk. 

Eddie Kingston gave CM Punk a verbal BEATING. That promo showcases how Eddie Kingston is legit one of the best pure dialogue executioners in this industry. 

Side note, I will say, It's nice to see an in-ring CM Punk segment that isn't the old "I'm glad to be with the fans". 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Red Velvet lost to The Bunny - Meh. 

Adam Cole defeated John Silver - The anti smarks looking at this match like, "is this AEW's version of the cruiserweight division? Bunch of vanilla midgets". 

Dynamite. 

Highlights. 

Matt Sydal And Lee Moriarty vs Dante Martin And Lio Rush. 

I like this match a ton. This is my second time seeing Lee Moriarty and he keeps on impressing me a lot as a performer. He's just that damn good right now. 

And It's been a while since I've seen Lio Rush wrestle with ease and God damn, the match made me appreciate his in-ring presence. 

The man of the hour, along with Dante Martin, walked out of this week's episode of Dynamite as the winner of the match with a beautiful looking moonsault from Dante Martin. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Bryan Danielson defeated Rocky Romero - A decent match is all I'll say. 

A beatdown from Dan Lambert's posse to Inner Circle - This is your weekly reminder that Dan Lambert is literally the epitome of annoying wrestling fans. 

Dr Britt Baker, Rebel And Jamie Hayter lost to Tay Conti, Anna Jay And Thunder Rosa - Another reminder that WWE really messed up on not utilizing Tay Conti on weekly television. 

Jungle Boy defeated Anthony Bowens - Speaking of Max Caster's awful freestyle rap but I will say, this was the least offensive of the bunch. Oh, and Bobby Fish gave the young man a SUPLEX BEATING. 

Wardlow gave Wheelchair Yuta powerbomb destruction that led to the big man's victory - The night just couldn't get any worse for Best Friends as Matt Hardy's big money crew took Yuta's loss as an advantage to give Vest Friends an a** whopping. Meh. 

Dax Hardwood lost to Pac - the other half of FTR (Cash Wheeler), Andrade El Idolo, Malaki Black gave Pac some foot stomps until Cody Rhodes and the Lucha Brothers (aka three POCs) came to the rescue. 

AEW loves their multi-person brawl more than WWE loves their women's division as of late. 

The contract signing with Hangman Page and Kenny Omega was bloody - Ya Allah, please don't let Louis Dangoor's booking plan come true for Hangman Page as a transitional champion. Ameen.

WWE Extreme Rules 2019 | My Coherent Review.

Man, I'm impressed with WWE in terms of PPVs as of late because overall, this was a fantastic show in my opinion with great matches but the crowd was dead for most of the show so that sucks.  I finally watched the pre-show match between Finn Balor and Shinsuke Nakamura before I went to bed because the show aired at 2 am where I live and it was okay.  By the way, how interesting is it when on last year’s Extreme Rules show, Shinsuke Nakamura won the United States championship and now this year’s show, he won the intercontinental title. Also, it's funny that the intercontinental championship was the main event on last's year show and on this year's Extreme Rules PPV, it's on the preshow.  Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.  Mike Rome did better in announcing "The Best In the world" this time than on RAW. Mike Rome's announcement a few weeks ago sounded like that one friend that thinks he/she knows how to ...

NXT Takeover: In Your House 2020 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeover: In Your House is like the rest of the Takeover shows, a fantastic 2 hours of professional wrestling.  What makes this show special is the additional nostalgia like how the show started with the NXT WWF inspired intro, the ice cream commercial narrated by William Regal doing his best Lord Alferd Hayes impression, icopro commercial and last but not least, Todd Pettengill.  This is a show that I'm definitely rewatching in years to come.  Mia Yim, Tegan Nox And Shotzi Blackheart vs Raquel Gonzalez, Candice LeRae And Dakota Kai.  A decent opening match. During the match, Nox did a Molly Holly top rope on to every competitor in the match.  Yim tried to give LeRae some Seoul Food but LeRae reversed that into a suplex. Several minutes later, Shotzi did a Salida Del Sol of some sort on Gonzalez to which Nox delivered the shiniest wizard on Kai and won the match.  Finn Balor vs Damian Priest. I actually thought that the closing mo...

The Coherent Wrestling Wednesdays: Holy Sh*t, The Revival Are All Elite, Matt Riddle vs Timothy Thatcher In A Unique Steel Cage Match.

Both shows had its weak points but overall, that was an enjoyable 4 hours of professional wrestling television. I personally liked AEW Dynamite this week.  From an awesome women's match with Shida and Christi Jaynes to The Revival showing up, AEW managed to give me a solid episode and successfully furthered their storylines to next week's exciting show.  NXT   Highlights (at least in my opinion because wrestling is subjective).  Kushida vs Drake Maverick vs Jake Atlas. Triple Threat Match Interim Cruiserweight Championship Tournament.  What a way to kick off this episode of NXT, am I right? Atlas delivered the rainbow DDT but Kushida broke Jake's pin.  Speaking of Kushida, he nailed the armbar submission, however, Drake pinned Atlas because Atlas' shoulders were on the mat and will meet El Hijo Del Fantasma for the finals next week.  I don't know if Drake is rehired or he's going to be rehired but Maverick has a big ta...
