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 5 News Week: An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom, Fans Singing Petitions For Charlotte Flair Not Winning Titles Anymore!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. An Interview With ROH's Eli Isom.  Yes. After several and several and several of The 5 News Week articles that I've been putting out since late 2018, I finally got an interview for you guys.  The person in question is Ring Of Honour's Eli Isom. Since graduating from the ROH Dojo, Isom has worked and learned from the absolute best in the industry:  "I’m lucky that I got a chance to train from scratch with ROH, without that kind of training who knows where I’d be right now." So, without further ado, here is the conversation I had with Eli.  Omar: My first question is, how would you describe the persona of "Eli Isom" to resident WWE shills like myself? Eli Isom: For me, my wrestling persona isn’t too far off from who I real...

The 5 News Week: There Was Supposed To Be A New Nation Of Domination Stable!?

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor news of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. Why Did The Sasha Banks And Asuka Match Have A Head Scratching Ending? The boss and the empress of tomorrow had a match of the night at Extreme Rules this past Sunday but the ending is a different story.  So, why did an over-complicated type of an ending like this was written into the PPV?  Well, good old Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez stated on Wrestling Observer Radio (From Cagesideseats ) that the finish was layed off like that so that the rematch (which was announced on the recent episode of Monday) will happen.  The hope for that is to "pop a number" in the ratings.  In other words, it was a reported marketing decision (no f'ing sh*t, Omar). Hey, at least we're getting a rematch, right?  Mike Bennett On Contemplating Leaving Pro...

WWE Smackdown 17/12/21 | A Coherent Review.

Another week, another meh episode of Smackdown although the ending was pretty eye-opening.  Images via WWE.com   The Viking Raiders vs Jinder Mahal And Shanky.  After a backstage segment that included The Usos roasting Xavier Woods' kingship, the blue brand really started the show with a match (not this one) which is a rare thing to see on main roster television. And the match wasn't bad at all.  The Viking Raider defeated the team of Jinder and Shanky with a splash from Ivor. Does everyone want a Happy Corbin segment? Well, no and Drew McIntyre agrees as he took out Corbin and Madcap Moss to retrieve his sword which sounds like a bad King Arthur comedy flick or something.  Naomi Wants A Match With Sonya Deville.  Naomi is upset at how Sonya Deville acted like a Susan over the past few months so the glow queen challenged the actual manager to a match at Day 1 and Sonya was like, "Ahhhh, no".  Naomi then had a match with Shayna Baszler and within minute...
