THE Coherent AEW Take: Dax Harwood Cash Wheeler BEST AEW Dynamite Match EVER!?

AEW delivered a solid, enjoyable week of programming which that statement alone is as predictable as a distraction finish. 

Rampage. 

Highlights. 

HOOK Said Something. 

I know it's weird that a piece of dialogue is the only highlight of this episode but considering that Hook hasn't uttered a single word and his intimidation factor, made this scene pretty memorable. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Tomohiro Ishi lost to Adam Cole In The Owen Hart Foundation Tournament - Not gonna lie, seeing two performers from two different brands while Orange Cassidy and Rocky Romero were roaming around ringside felt like I was watching gameplay of WWE 2k because of how random this entire thing was. 

Jade Cargill retained the TBS championship against Maria Shafir - that one-legged pin from Cargill into a leg bar from Shafir was *chef's kiss*. 

Lance Archer DESTROYED Serpentico - Somebody check on Luther because his friend is getting destroyed and I'm not sure if he feels good about that. 

Eddie Kingston defeated Daniel Garcia - Garcia's chest is looking as red as Eva Marie's hair which has to be the weirdest comparison I've ever made. 

Dynamite. 

Highlights. 

Dax Harwood vs Cash Wheeler. Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. 

I've never had the thought of splitting them up at least for one match and man, that "light bulb" turned out to be one hell of an idea. This was, by far, the best match from the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. 

Kinda reminded me of when they split up Johnny Gargano and Tomasso Ciampa just for the cruiserweight classic. 

After a quick sequence of near falls pin, Dax got him with an inside cradle to advance into the tournament. 

Hikaru vs Serena Deeb In A Street Fight. 

Unfortunately, the crowd was kinda cooled off during this entire bout but I damn sure wasn't because this encounter ruled harder than Mansa Musa. 

Deeb has been built into a solid challenger for the AEW world women's championship so the big W for her just made all the sense in the world. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

CM Punk was like, "I like you fans but also, that AEW title is mine" - Eh. 

Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley and Wheeler Yuta defeated QT Marshall, Aaron Solo and Nick Coromoto - Yuta being part of the Blackpool Combat Club is a nice addition. 

Wardlow defeated Lance Archer - Aka two of the best theme songs in AEW today but unfortunately, we don't get to hear one of them because of that POS, MJF. 

Eddie Kingston really doesn't like Chris Jericho - Yea, no f**king sh*t, Omar. 

Rey Felix is back, boys - Happy to see the man. 

Adam Cole, Kyle O'Reilly, Bobby Fish and the Young Bucks defeated Brock Anderson, Lee Johnson, Dante Martin and Varsity Blonds - I'm smelling a turn from Adam Cole to The Young Bucks at some point. 

Scorpio Sky took back the TNT championship against Sammy Guevara in a ladder match - Aka the Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair of the midcard division but the difference is that their matches were actually good.

WWE Smackdown 21/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

  Another week, another time Pat McAfee shows me why he's better than Corey Graves. Both in the ring AND on the commentary table.  As far as how I feel about this week's episode, it ain't good, people. It ain't good.  An Image via WWE.com   Sethy Mane Wanted A Tag Partner So….………. That he faces The Usos later in the show and if drippy Jesus wins, 2 out of 3 members of the Bloodline are barred off ringside in the blue title encounter (in case you were wondering, Kevin Owens was Seth's tag partner).  BUTTTTTTTTTTTT! The tribal chief had other ideas. He proposed a pitch where if the "burn it down" man loses the tag match, the Rumble match is gone, FINITO!  Bully Ray probably saw Seth Rollins' uttering Jox Moxley's name and reacted, "HOW DARE YOU!! BLASPHEMY!"  Fortunately for SR The Drip Mane, he got what he wanted via a DQ finish thanks to a superman punch from Roman Reigns. While the ending did protect the tag champs, the consequences of i...

A Few Thoughts On RAW And Smackdown: RAW wasn't GREAT!?

  Since this blog will be less of a priority now considering I'm focusing on my podcast now (hit the 5 stars on Apple Podcast you sons of b*tches), I decided to share my few thoughts on RAW, Smackdown, I guess?  Smackdown.  The blue brand delivered yet another good episode this week and it's probably due to the fact that Braun Strowman taking out the Maximum Model is high-key funny as f**k.  The folks over at Titan Towers are bringing back the essence of their characters whether it's Kevin Owens, Shayna Baszler or in this case, Big Braun himself.   As a fan, you gotta love it, especially since in the case of Strowman, the dude hasn't been the same since he turned heel 4 years ago when feuding with Roman Reigns for the universal title.   Other noteworthy segments include Logan Paul challenging Roman Reigns for the big world universal multiverse galactic cinematic championship.  Imagine they pulled that match off 7 years ago back when Logan was on V...

WWE Smackdown 17/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

This recent instalment of Smackdown was decent.  The women, for the most part, was the standout in this program and it honestly carried the show from a meh to a decent watch.  The show started off with Jeff Hardy and Sheamus talking about the upcoming bar fight which you can scroll down to read my thoughts on it.  Sasha Banks and Bayley Gives Us A New Perspective Of The Word "Greatness".  The so-called "golden role models" were praising their greatness to which Nikki Cross was furious about the way she lost at Extreme Rules.  So, Nikki wanted a rematch for the SmackDown women's championship and Bayley accepted that bout if Nikki faces her best friend, Alexa Bliss to determine the number one contender.  That match started immediately after this segment and it was a good opener.  Bayley and Sasha Banks were entertaining in the commentary as per usual.  When Corey Graves brought the fact that Bayley didn't want t...
