The 5 News Week: Is Rey Mysterio RETIRING!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. 

The IIconics SUPPOSED to APPEAR at The Women's Royal Rumble!? 

Admittedly, this piece of news is a week and a half old but you may think it isn't all that bad. 

Well, because of how the wrestling news cycle moves faster than an MCU Disney Plus show, this story might as well be 5,000 years old. 

From Fightful Selectrinos, the current Impact knockouts tag team champions were offered to be part of this year's stinker that was the Royal Rumble show, more specifically the women's Royal Rumble match but they refused. 

Mustafa Ali Has A YEAR LEFT In His CONTRACT!? 

My man Mustafa Ali be begging for his WWE release like Oliver Twist (can't blame the guy, I guess). 

And kinda bad news I guess for the talented performer and a certified face of humanity because according to said Al Fightful Bin Select, Mustafa Ali has "well over a year into his contract, at least". 

Bianca Carelli SIGNED with WWE!? 

Representation is important in any industry, especially in professional wrestling. 

So, it's great to see more POCs in the business, specifically, Italians. 

From the man that once rap battled against Akon, Santino Marella, confirmed in an interview with JBL and Gerald Brisco's Stories With Bradshaw and Brisco that his daughter, Bianca Carelli has signed with world wrestling entertainment and will be at the performance center in 2 weeks. 

Side note but JBL has a podcast now? What are the podcast topics include? Why bullying should be legal? 

Mauro Ranallo Has A NEW SERIES COMING!?

We all can agree that Twitter is legitimately, a blue hell something that The Rock has warned us about for many years based on the number of times he's used the damn word.  

One of the best things (wink, wink) about that darn website was Mauro Ranallo and his interactions with the fanbase. 

And now, he's hosting a reality-based show coming out on March 16th called "Beyond The Edge" being aired on CBS and Paramount Plus, you know, the thing Star Trek Picard is in. 

It's basically Survivor but celebrities (that is such a mid-2000s idea for a reality show, it's actually funny). 

When is Rey Mysterio RETIRING? 

Let's hear it from the man himself (from WrestlingInc): 

"I think I’ll step back once I feel like my son is ready just to take off on his own,” “That would be really helpful for him. I’m hoping that it happens within this year. For him to branch out and take care of things on his own. I’ve had the opportunity to be on the same house shows as him, with me wrestling in a completely separate match and him wrestling by himself."


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

WWE NXT 4/5/21 | A Coherent Review.

  It looks like the Divas era is back based on the time these women get in a wrestling match on the main roster as well as Eva Marie's return (huh? Wrong show? Oh, thank God!).  All lame jokes aside, this week's episode of NXT is apples to spaceships difference between this show and Monday Night BORE (I legit fell asleep while watching the show which is why I didn't post a RAW review yesterday).  Last week's episode wasn't great so it's awesome to witness an improvement.  Images via WWE.com   Leon Ruff vs Isiah Swerve Scott In A Falls Count Anywhere Match.  Leon took a nasty looking knee strike from Swerve Scott minutes into the match.   Swerve Scott delivered his finisher using the barricade and it isn't a surprise when I tell you that it was executed perfectly. Thanks to the debuting AJ Francis, Isiah Swerve Scott nailed his finisher to pick up the victory.  This opening encounter gave me Takeover vibes. In other words, the match was f**kin...

WWE Smackdown 20/5/22 | A Coherent Review.

Regarding the whole Naomi and Sasha Banks situation, WWE has (on top of saying that Banks and Naomi have disappointed the fans to which I say, "FACK OFF, WILL YA?!") relinquished the women's tag belts and they're going to have a tournament to which I say, "WHAT F**KING TEAMS!?" WWE has more women's tag teams than Arsenal has champions league titles.  As far as how I feel about the show, it was really mediocre, to say the least.   Roman Reigns Hypes Up The Usos In Purse Of The Tag Title Unification Match.  I'm just going to describe the main event match since it was pretty darn short. The Usos did just defeat RKBRO to win the red belts which led to a beatdown from the Bloodline to RKBRO.  While the 6 man match at Backlash was, dare I say, a match of the year candidate, this one was just too uneventful due to the sudden end of an okay match that could've been MUCH better.  Shinsuke Nakamura vs Sami Zayn.  I once remember that they had a match of th...

WWE RAW 3/12/18 | My Coherent Review

It's December everyone and RAW is still awful. Now usually on my reviews, I tell you what's good, what's okay and what's bad. For the first time since I started reviewing Monday Night RAW back in June, I'm going to put every segment and every match on what's bad for obvious reasons. Here we go.  WHAT'S BAD   The opening match of the night The purpose of an opening match is to build excitement for the rest of the show but this did the opposite. I appreciate WWE for going straight to a match instead of a boring, generic and downright formulaic (in a bad way) opening segment but the execution was pretty bad.  This was supposed to be a tag match between Ronda and Natalya vs Nia Jax and Tamina but instead, the Riott Squad came out and they put Natalya through a table on the outside.  Sasha Banks and Bayley vs Mickie James and Alicia Fox What can I say? This was a skippable match. Mickie was going for her DDT finish but ins...
