A Very LATE AEW Coherent Take: AEW Got Too Many TITLES!?

It's Friday. You know what that means. An AEW recap series that comes out as consistent as Vince McMahon's creative vision. You know what's consistent? How enjoyable Rampage and Dynamite are for the most part. 

Rampage. 

Highlights. 

Get Well Soon CM Punk. 

Headline spitting facts here. The fact that it's a match elimination series of a battle Royal then a one-on-one match then another one-on-one match at Forbidden Door and not a full-fledged tournament was the right choice considering how common tournaments are in AEW (also, please, let Adam Cole be the interim champion). 

The Young Bucks vs The Lucha Bros. 

Anything with the Bucks and Lucha Bros will always make me utter the word "Pog" like a typical Twitch chatter that has nothing going for themselves. 

Unlike their encounter at last year's All Out PPV, The Young Bucks stood tall against the former tag team champions. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Kiera Hogan lost to Athena - I guess Kiera wasn't one hundy on Friday. 

Scorpio Sky defeated Dante Martin for the TNT championship - Dante had a world and a TNT championship match this year alone? Let's freaking go. 

Dynamite. 

Highlights. 

That All Atlantic Championship Goes Hard Bruh.

I like the design although I do think AEW has a crap ton of titles (especially with the acquisition of ROH). 

Buddy Matthews vs Pac. All Atlantic Championship Tournament. 

That match was great. Simple as, bruf. Pac defeated the Aussie man to advance in the tournament. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Here we go. Casino battle royal time - A decent way to open the show. Kyle O'Reilly won the whole thing and faced Jonny Mox later in the episode and……….. 

Jon Moxley defeated Kyle O'Reilly to face probably Hiroshi Tanahashi at Forbidden Door - All I can say about the entire booking decision for the world championship is that Hangman losing the title wasn't the right call. AEW could've saved themselves a ton of headaches. 

Will Ospreay is here. *unenthusiastic* Yay! - Coolinos.

Hangman Page wants OKADA - Adam Cole pulled a Jack Black from Nacho Libre and replied, "you're crazy". Oh, and Page defeated David Finlay in case all 2 and a half of y'all were wondering. 

Wardlow is eyeing the TNT championship - can't blame him because that title with the gold and purple combination is so beautiful. 

Thunder Rosa retained the AEW world women's championship defeating Maria Shafir -  Aka a consequence of AEW having more titles than MCU films.

THE Coherent AEW Take: I Ain't Tellin' You No Lie, The Hook Brings You Back

PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK! PAGE AND BRYAN! HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!  That's it. That's the intro.  Rampage.   Highlights.  HOOOOOOOOK!  I mean, I gotta support the man himself named Hook, DUHHH!  What can I say, I like a man that is built different, quick, agile and hard……..in professional wrestling, of course.  Suffice to say, Hook does something that Kalya Braxton doesn't and that is, making all biracials proud.  FTR vs Lucha Brothers for the AEW world tag team championship Two of the best tag teams I've ever witnessed as a wrestling fan (yes, they're THAT darn good) battling it out in an opening match so banging, not even your Beats headphone can replicate it, ya feel me?  The Lucha Brothers get to walk out of this episode of Rampage still as the reigning world tag champs.  Some Other Things That Happened.  Adam Cole defeated Wheeler Yuta - Adam Cole appreciation comment.  Dynamite.  Highlights.  Hangman Page...

Escape The Undertaker | A Short Coherent Review.

The internet. The only place where your YouTube recommended is filled with "I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT'S PG".  It is also home to Netflix which released an interactive movie produced by future Raspberry award-winning movie studio, WWE films. Look, the idea of 3 black dudes being trapped inside a house by a white conservative dead hog, is offensive and by that description alone, you weren't sure for a sec whether you were watching Netflix or the Daily Wire.  Luckily, there wasn't a cameo from Tessa Blanchard so you should be fine.  As a fan of Mass Effect 2, I love some dialogue trees that alter the events of a movie/game.  And, from a functionality standpoint, it is a technical marvel how it gives the audience the illusion of choice (you know, like our current economic system).  I say "illusion" because therein lies the main problem I have with the film. Your choices don't matter here. Even in a WWE movie, they're still trying to avoid the fan...

WWE Smackdown Live 11/9/18 | My Coherent Review.

Smackdown live was overall a good show. Why you ask? Well, I'm gonna tell you what's good, what's ok and what's bad. Here we go.  WHAT'S GOOD Jeff Hardy vs Shinsuke Nakamura The promo before this was okay however that was a goooood match. Better than their in counter at SummerSlam. Jeff was about to beat Nakamura, however, randy outta nowhere pushes hardy on the outside hence Nakamura retains the championship and Jeff wins via DQ. They had a brawl that was better than the brawl last night on RAW I'll tell you that much.  Samoa Joe telling a bedtime story in a good not boring way.   I thought from the editing to the design of the book to the way Samoa Joe express the story was fantastic. The thing I LOVE about this is that it's a outside in the box type of promo package that worked. Man, I can't wait for this match. On Sunday night when the PPV airs, I think I'm gonna call my local "WENDYYYS" (My goodness that was awfu...
