THE Coherent AEW Take: AEW kinda DISSAPOINTING!?

Sorry for not covering AEW for *looks at the archives* Since what it feels like the year 1456 AD. 

Enough of the lame jokes and excuses, how did AEW do this week? Other than Wheeler Yuta stealing the show on the latest episode of Rampage, THE elite brand simply didn't deliver elite content. It was just kinda okay. 

Rampage. 

Highlights. 

YUTAAAAAAAAAA! 

We're not even in the middle of the month and already, we got a match of the year candidate. Wheeler walked out of this match as a legit main eventer that could possibly compete for the world title which I wouldn't mind. 

It was so good, Moxley's mentor, William Regal shook Wheeler's hand out of respect (uh, I'd wash my hands faster than Wally West if I was Regal). 

Sammy Guevara Nas Level ETHERED Dan Lambert's Misogyny And Wants That TNT Championship Too. 

Based Sammy Guevara. 

Oh, and Ethan Page can cut it both in promos and in m…..…………… (bro, it's Ramadan). 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Bryan Danielson defeated Trent Baretta - Danielson has more submissions than WWE has with creativity. 

Red Velvet won against Willow Nightingale In The Owen Hart Foundation Tournament Round one - First impressions of seeing Willow Nightingale perform? A thumb up. 

The guy that lost to some giant named Paul last year, lost here to Shane Strickland - And ya boy Ricky was like, "let's face each other in a tag match, Shane OHHHHH!" 

Dynamite. 

Highlights. 

Ricky Starks And Will Hobbs vs Keith Lee And Shane Strickland. 

Speaking of which. This match had so much black excellence, Dr Umar Johnson would be proud. Let's just call it what it is, a fun good old fashioned tag team match, Playas! 

Taz's crew aka the POC Posse took home the W thanks to Taz himself getting involved. 

Some Other Things That Happened.

CM Punk won against Penta El Zero M - A decent opener is all I'll say

Jurassic Express retained the tag team gold against Bobby Fish and Kyle (or Kylie if you're autocorrect) O'Reilly - O'Reilly was like, "that was a fluke" by hitting the tag belt on Jungle Boy's back. My man legit gave Jungle Boy a back shot bruh. 

MJF lost to Captain Shawn Dean via a count-out - That was all thanks to one word *Jack Garland's voice in Stranger's Paradise Final Fantasy Origin* chaos. Specifically, the chaos ensued by Wardlow absolutely wrecking everybody including a bunch of security guards. 

Pro wrestling security guards are as effective as the f**king foot clan. 

Chris Jericho, Daniel Garcia and Jake Hager defeated the Puerto Rican boys in Eddie Kingston, Santana and Ortiz - Oh my God, another post-match beatdown following a multi-person match? I'm surprised. 

Marina Shafir picked up the victory over Skye Blue - Damn, their women's division sure did cooled off its steam they've built last year, huh? 

Joe won the ROH Championship and was attacked by Satnam Singh - What on Allah was that ending? I didn't know what confused me, this ending or my entire time watching Everything Everywhere All At Once.

WWE Smackdown 20/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

  That CM Punk return was so noteworthy, it blew this entire episode out of the water. That’s it. That’s the opening statement.  Images via WWE.com   Edge Wasn't Playing When He Said That He'll Put Seth Into Darkness.  The show started off with the Rated R superstar saying that Rollins has made the guy find his heart when the blood runs black.  In other words, he'll beat the shit out of Rollins at slamming of summer.  Speaking of "the blood runs black", after Seth Rollins gave a speech on how he can't be on Sethy's level, the man that says "drip" more times than a white dude that streams on Twitch, was covered in black liquid following Gangrel's theme song playing in the background.  Edge ain't f**king around. I appreciated the uniqueness of the segment and how it was a tribute to WWE's continuity (which if you've been watching WWE for a longer period of time then you'll know that WWE acknowledging their storytelling cohesion ...

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 2/9/19 | My Coherent Review.

The second week in a row where RAW is a good show overall and here's why.  Seth Rollins vs Braun Strowman For The Universal Championship Contract Signing.  Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman came out to the ring at different times to make one of their championships matches official and they brought up reasons as to why they're going to win the championship of the universe you know like most contract signings.  Out came The O.C and AJ Styles became a typical wrestling fan for a moment by cutting a promo about how Rollins and Strowman didn't deserve their title opportunities. The O.C ignored Micheal Cole's saying of Rollins and Strowman having a contract signing and they had a brawl which led to a tag team match.  For an opening segment, this was weeeeeeeeeeak. I mean NXT's openings is not revolutionary but at least it's decent. That didn't do its job to build off this match not gonna lie.  The O.C vs Seth Rollins And Braun Strowman.  Afte...
