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.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

The 5 News Week: WWE Backstage. Cancelled Or Nah?, Liv Morgan's Re-Debut Was Supposed To Be Different!?

I'm back on my BS because it's The 5 News Week where I report on the 5 major or minor news of the week hence the name "T he 5 News Week".  Sorry for the week of absence. I took a week off of social media (except YouTube) due to the sadness I felt when reading those brave women and men tell their stories about the awful, terrible experiences they've had after their interactions with notable people in the industry.  It made me question my fandom and whether I should be in the industry (wrestling media-wise) knowing that they are asshats that will take an advantage on people for no reason other than more power and control.  This week proves that the business needs to wash all the old tropes that make it harder for people to express what's really going on especially when it pertains  to serious issues like sexual assault, racism, sexism etc.  I'm hoping that those stories will lead to a sudden change in every aspect of this profession and other ...
