A Few News I Guess: Fred From The Scooby-Doo Movie Made A WWE Star CRY!?

 Since I didn't have time to come up with 5 major or minor news of the week in the name of "productivity", I decided to showcase a few news, I guess? 

News On The Judgment Day Stable Going SOUTH!?

The reason why (according to their snitch at Fightful Select) we witnessed a Vince Russo-style twist with Finn Balor being the leader by turning on Edge is that the WWE wanted a "supernatural" direction (oh no, does this mean the stable will last 15 years?). 

However, Edge was like, "Nah, I don't like that." The twist was planned hours before this week's Monday Night RAW while a plan for a Finnie Baylord heel turn was coined in days before the Hell In A Cell PPV. 

Fred From The Scooby-Doo Movie Made A WWE Star CRY!?

No. This isn't kayfabe news like satire. On the June 1st episode of Freddie Prinze Jr's "Wrestling With Freddie" podcast, Ryan Dunne recalled the time he made former Divas champion Michelle McCool cry by writing her to lose a Divas championship match at the Royal Rumble (2011 I assume) "with dignity" (from WrestlingInc): 

“I am a complete rookie, I have no idea the politics of it, Michelle never came to the promo class so I didn’t really know Michelle at all, I start pitching it to her, what it was gonna be, which, it wasn’t right on my part. I explain to her that the suggestion is that she drops the title at the Royal Rumble … and her face just goes pale, all the color just drops right out of her, literally right out of her skin … her eyes well up.”

He then got the point that the title meant so much for McCool especially since she didn't expect to lose the championship and the fact that he was tasked to create a match between Kharma aka Awesome Kong and Beth Phoenix. 

WWE Really HIGH On GUNTHER!?

Why is that? Well, Fightful Select has noted that the former UK champion's move to America (burther) and his diet commitments (them packs though) have pretty much impressed WWE. 

Considering that he's had an undefeated streak and won the intercontinental championship within a few months of his main roster re-debut, this report made a ton of sense. 

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

NXT Takeover: 30 | A Coherent Review.

NXT Takeovers have delivered greatly throughout the "30 years" of Takeover shows.  This one, in my opinion, wasn't it. For a Takeover program, this was disappointing.  All of the Takeovers are A's or B's and Takeover 30 was a C at best.  At least, I like the stage production set.  pictures via WWE.com PRESHOW: Breezango vs Legado De La Fantasma vs Oney Lorcan And Danny Burch. Winner Faces Imperium For The NXT Tag Team Championship.  It was a fine match. Joaquin Wilde's ring gear was really cool even though it took a bit out of the seriousness from the Legado De La Fantasma stable. I'm just nitpicking though.  Breezango actually won the match and will go on to face Imperium for the tag belts.  MAIN SHOW: Finn Balor vs Timothy Thatcher.  Timothy Thatcher started off this match with a series of punches which he then later transitioned into various submission moves.  Pretty much, Finn has no choice but to adapt to...

WWE RAW 28/2/22 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another episode of Monday Night RAW aka a 2 hour podcast for an angry bearded white guy.  Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins spoke with Alpha Academy and………..  It led to a stunner from Kevin Owens to Chad Gable  I can't criticize the way Gable says thank you because after all, he's a chad.  The segment followed with a decent tag team match between two former rivals and the Academics.  And like their dating life, the Alphas took an L here.  This is the part where I would be mad at the tag champs getting pinned but those titles, as well as the entire tag division, are so meaningless, I don't have the energy to do so.  T-Bar vs Omos.  T-Bar lost a match and Omos can't wrestle for sh*ts. In other news, the colour of blood is red.  Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley And Liv Morgan vs Becky Lynch, Doudrop And Nikki A.S.H.  Bianca once again proves that she owns all of the EST by leading her team to victory with the KOD on Nikki Ash Ketchum....

Top 3 BEST Distraction Finishes EVER!

Distraction endings to a wrestling match in WWE depend on one another if you think about it. It's like the peanut butter and jelly or the chicken and the basmati biryani rice or Dan Lambert and sexism.  "Why top 3", you may ask? Because one, I'm different and two, well, I'm different, so be gone to the mofos that think it's shorter than Brock Lesnar's bout with Kofi Kingston.  (WARNING: This piece is mostly sarcasm).  Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus. Wrestlemania 28.  I know this made your eyebrows raise as high as Rocky Maivia but think about this. The kiss from AJ Lee that led to a brogue kick from Sheamus, has in some way, led to the general audience seeing how Daniel Bryan should be WAY higher in the overall arc than where he was at that time.  Also, this was also the year where Bryan showed off his comedic chops with his "NO" catchphrase and his tag team run with the big red conservative, Kane.  If anything, this distraction finish was a great chara...
