The 5 News Week: Vince McMahon Has Wrestlemania 39 Plans?

 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. 

Roman Reigns THE PART-TIMER!? 

I guess he followed John Cena's promo 5 years ago saying that he may do it part-time better than he does it full time. 


He's heard from his snitch that when discussing the tribal chief's part-time schedule, the success of the first night of this year's Wrestlemania, convinced Titan Towers that they don't need to feature their top champion on every PPV since the Peacock money is "guaranteed" (the fact that I laughed at the line, "Peacock money" should tell you how immature I am). 

Kota Ibushi BREAKS UP With NJPW!?

To quote Chris Hero's WWE theme song, "Oh no. Oh no. OH NO!" Speaking of the F4WOnline guys, Bryan Alvarez mentioned on Wrestling Observer Live that Kota Ibushi "burned his bridge" with New Japan and the entire Japanese wrestling scene. 

The reason? Well, to keep it brief, it stems from Kota Ibushi's issues with bad NJPW management which include sexual harassment, one of the executives, Kikuchi and "cheater-guns" (shout out to @golden_kuma for the translation).

F**K EM! 

An Update Regarding Leyla Hirsch's Injury. 

PWInsider and "why's my headline written by Oney Lorcan" Mike Johnson, noted that Leyla Hirsch's Injury sustained on AEW Dark last month was believed to be an "ACL and/or MCL tear". 

Wishing her nothing but the Willy West level speedy recovery.

Brief Thoughts on Smackdown Yesterday. 

I surprisingly like it. Yes, it felt like a continuation of Wrestlemania Backlash but they did show some unique match-ups and arcs (hence the sentence, "leftovers with fresh salad on the side"). 

Vince McMahon Has Wrestlemania 39 PLANS!?

Long term storytelling on its way back via the crazy white old man himself? Remember that Money In The Bank commercial where Cody Rhodes said something along the lines of "winner of the MITB contract gets a championship opportunity at Wrestlemania"? 

Well, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (from WrestlingInc) has heard from multiple sauces that the commercial was a mistake. 

However, they've mentioned that Vinnie Mac has plans set for next year’s Wrestlemania that isn't related to the Money In the Bank contract regarding a guaranteed title shot. 

To quote an overused line, "will see what happens." 

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

Are Dirtsheets The Wrestling Version Of Tabloids?

A month ago, I was listening to the prince and the wolf podcast   with comedian Josh Wolf and actor/former WWE writer himself Freddie Prince Jr. In it, they had now seven-time women's champion Charlotte as their guest and she talked about life, how she got into professional wrestling but the most interesting part about this interview is that when Wolf asked: "what is dirtsheets?" Freddie replied by saying that it's basically tabloids. Is he wrong or is he right? Well, let's look at history.  Dirtsheets have spanned over 5 decades and it is still going strong to this very day and was given the name "Dirtsheets" to get "Inside dirt" in the wrestling business in a printed format or in a modern online site. Hence, the name dirtsheet.  The earliest form of dirtsheets was in the 60s where a woman by the name of Georgiann Makropoulos who herself started a monthly newsletter called "The Wrestling Chatterbox" after writing articles on wr...

WWE Money In The Bank 2021 | A Coherent Review

Last year's Money In The Bank show was one of my all-time favourites. You wanna know why?  It's because it ended in 2 hours and 10 minutes. As a guy with an intensive full-time job, that alone has to be the reason why 2020 MITB is a great show.  How did this year's show hold up? Well, it was quite simply, an enjoyable 3-hour program.  I had my so-called "money's worth" after watching this PPV.  Oh, and the Smackdown tag team championship match was aye okay.  Images via WWE.com   Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match.  You would think that Alexa Bliss would've won this match considering that she has voodoo powers, right?  But, I can't pull the "white dude that complains about logic in a subject piece of entertainment" because this match was probably one of the best multi-person ladder matches I've seen in quite some time.  Nikki A.S.H overcame the odds like a good superhero story would tell by winning the briefcase.  Given that she...

A Guide On How To Improve Wrestling Criticism.

Now, before you all verbally eat me alive like a hippopotamus (yes hippos eat humans, look that up), understand that I’m just an average dude writing about pro wrestling and doesn’t claim to be an expert in anything and that includes professional wrestling (except cooking. I’m damn good at cooking).  However, what I’ve been discovering as a pro wrestling blogger for over a year is that there are some wrestling criticism out there that just make me wanna scratch my head to the point where my hands turn into an electric shaver if that makes sense. For instance, “Why is Ricochet’s trunks red instead of white?” or “Why’s Andrade wearing his Luchador mask for his entrance every week?”  In other words, they’re nitpicking and trust me I do that ALL THE TIME in my wrestling reviews. There’s nothing wrong with nitpicking certain things but the difference is that I acknowledge that I’m nitpicking and those guys clearly don’t.  There are fans out there on the interweb that b...
