THE Coherent AEW Take: NO MORE WHITE SAVOUR CODY! YAYYY!


For the third week in a row, I haven't reviewed a RAW episode while I'm recapping AEW. Does this mean that I'm now, THE AEW Shill!? 

To my 1 viewer who's concerned (thanks Mom), the RAW reviews will be back with more bad comedy material than ever. 

Rampage. 

Highlights. 

The Young Bucks vs Trent Barreta And Rocky Romero. 

This match rocked harder than a Trust Company song. What a darn opener this was. 

Trent went suplex city on the Jackson brothers with the amount of German suplexes being delivered. 

Unfortunately for the best friends, The Young Bucks stood tall in this opening contest with a double knee strike on Ricky Romero. 

Oh, and Jay White is here. Nice. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Britt Baker defeated Robyn Renegade - Eh. 

My man Hook had hooked up the victory over Blake Li - The title says it all. 

Jurassic Express retained the world tag belts over The Smoking Son Gunns - Woah, Woah, Woah? 

Dynamite. 

Highlights. 

NO MORE WHITE SAVIOUR, CODY! YAYYYYY! 

For real though, Cody Rhodes has been an integral part of AEW's success in terms of the storytelling both inside and outside the ring (at least for the most part). 

Here's hoping Titan Towers doesn't paint his face and call him "Stardust" again. 

Daniel Bryan vs Lee Moriarty. 

This match being on this week's episode was like watching the Atomic Heart trailer in the sense that I reacted, "yes, please!" 

And I wasn't surprised that the match ruled harder than the bi icon Alexander the great.

After Bryan defeated the young talented upstart, Lee Moriarty, the American dragon wanted an answer regarding a potential alliance between the submission machine and Jon Moxley (aka my fellow receding hairline brother). 

To which Jonny Mox was like, "Nah, I'm good." 

Thunder Rosa vs Mercedes Martinez In A No DQ Match. 

Shout out to the ladies because this match was really, really, really good. Rosa picked up the victory which led to the winner of the match showing some respect to Martinez. 

Oh, and Thunder Rosa took a beating from Britt Baker's non-Karen resistant managers. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

CM Punk said, "MJF sucks, my dudes" - PW Torch's Cameron Hawkins looked at CM Punk's statement on MJF like that religious aunt watching a sweaty Alabama pastor praising the lord "HALLELUJAH, YESSIR, HALLELUJAH". 

Wardlow Defeated The Acclaimed Max Caster - That hard-hitting powerbomb at the end of the match from Wardlow was probably him exercising his disdain for Max Caster's freestyle raps. 

Adam Cole said, "that title is mine, cowboy!" - That match between Hangman Page and Adam Cole is going to be fun as f**k to watch. 

Santana And Ortiz took the W over Chris Jericho and Jake Hager - Yea, Eddie. Show Chris that the gift of Jericho is nothing more than bad Fozzy albums!

Sammy Guevara retained the AEW TNT Championship by defeating Darby Allin - While I thought the main event was kinda okay, Sammy Guevara's TNT title reign gets a 2 thumbs up from my end. 

But, Andrade El Idolo as TNT champion? I'll take it.

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...

NXT Takeover: 30 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeovers have delivered greatly throughout the "30 years" of Takeover shows.  This one, in my opinion, wasn't it. For a Takeover program, this was disappointing.  All of the Takeovers are A's or B's and Takeover 30 was a C at best.  At least, I like the stage production set.  pictures via WWE.com PRESHOW: Breezango vs Legado De La Fantasma vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch. Winner Faces Imperium For The NXT Tag Team Championship.  It was a fine match. Joaquin Wilde's ring gear was really cool even though it took a bit out of the seriousness from the Legado De La Fantasma stable. I'm just nitpicking though.  Breezango actually won the match and will go on to face Imperium for the tag belts.  MAIN SHOW: Finn Balor vs Timothy Thatcher.  Timothy Thatcher started off this match with a series of punches which he then later transitioned into various submission moves.  Pretty much, Finn has no choice but to adapt to...

WWE RAW 28/2/22 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another episode of Monday Night RAW aka a 2 hour podcast for an angry bearded white guy.  Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins spoke with Alpha Academy and………..  It led to a stunner from Kevin Owens to Chad Gable  I can't criticize the way Gable says thank you because after all, he's a chad.  The segment followed with a decent tag team match between two former rivals and the Academics.  And like their dating life, the Alphas took an L here.  This is the part where I would be mad at the tag champs getting pinned but those titles, as well as the entire tag division, are so meaningless, I don't have the energy to do so.  T-Bar vs Omos.  T-Bar lost a match and Omos can't wrestle for sh*ts. In other news, the colour of blood is red.  Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley And Liv Morgan vs Becky Lynch, Doudrop And Nikki A.S.H.  Bianca once again proves that she owns all of the EST by leading her team to victory with the KOD on Nikki Ash Ketchum....
