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.

WWE Wrestlemania 26 | A Coherent Review.

I've teased a mystery review on my Facebook page (which you can click here to follow us) and that mystery has now been unveiled. It's Wrestlemania 26. This review was delayed and was supposed to be up last Monday but at least is now up. Also, The first draft of this review was 7 pages long so strap in. By far, the longest review on this very website.  I thought it would be fitting to review a Wrestlemania from a decade back and how do I feel about it? It was a show that if you watched it, you're most likely going to have a good time. It was a mix of great things but terrible things at the same time as most shows.  The 26th edition of Wrestlemania took place in the University of Phoenix Stadium in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona on March 28th, 2010.  The commentators were Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Honestly, Striker was pretty good and a far better colour commentator than Lawler was on this show (even today, Lawler is still bleh on commen...

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

The 5 News Week: WWE Backstage. Cancelled Or Nah?, Liv Morgan's Re-Debut Was Supposed To Be Different!?

I'm back on my BS because it's The 5 News Week where I report on the 5 major or minor news of the week hence the name "T he 5 News Week".  Sorry for the week of absence. I took a week off of social media (except YouTube) due to the sadness I felt when reading those brave women and men tell their stories about the awful, terrible experiences they've had after their interactions with notable people in the industry.  It made me question my fandom and whether I should be in the industry (wrestling media-wise) knowing that they are asshats that will take an advantage on people for no reason other than more power and control.  This week proves that the business needs to wash all the old tropes that make it harder for people to express what's really going on especially when it pertains  to serious issues like sexual assault, racism, sexism etc.  I'm hoping that those stories will lead to a sudden change in every aspect of this profession and other ...
