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.

AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter. Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston.  Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway.  A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking.  What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa.  Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down.  It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac. I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out?  Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of ...

WWE RAW 5/10/20 | A Coherent Review.

I have not said this in a RAW review in a very long time but the show as a whole was straight up dogsh*t awful.  It's so bad that I didn't like one ounce about this program.  pictures via wwe.com Randy Orton Remembers His Match At Clash Of Champions.  The show started off with Randy Orton recalling certain aspects about the WWE championship match at Clash Of Champions.  Orton goes on to say that Drew doesn't deserve the championship because the legends interfered in the ambulance match.  The promo ended with Orton bringing up the fact that he beat up four legends last week on RAW (again, explain the physics behind this?).  Drew showed up and he laid waste on the guy.  Randy has been quite exceptional in the dialogue department but this ain't it.  The promo actually put me to sleep and the show didn't even hit 10 minutes up until that point.  If they suddenly end the rivalry like nothing happened, while it doesn't make sense, I'm all for it be...

WWE NXT UK Takeover: Cardiff | My Coherent Review.

via WWE I don't watch or review the first NXT UK Takeover for some odd reason but I'm so glad I did because that was like the main NXT Takeovers, was absolutely great to watch. I'm just speechless and if you have watched the show then you'll know why (also, if you somehow didn't watch this show, what are you doing? Go and treat yourself with some wrestling goodness.) Noam Dar vs Travis Banks.  A very enjoyable opening match. Noam Dar proves that he's great at what he does with so many submission holes because if you don't know, I'm a technical wrestling connoisseur. Noam Dar won the match with a standing shining wizard.  Cesaro vs Ilja Dragunov. Always great to see Cesaro do what he does best and that's a fight inside the square circle. So, Ilja called out Cesaro because Cesaro's looking for an open challenge and Cesaro obviously picked his challenger.  The Swiss Cyborg started off this match by throwing Dragunov to the outside ...
