AEW Dynamite 1/6/22 | A Coherent Review


Ever since I saw that Monday was the day that AEW Double Or Nothing was happening, I knew I wouldn't be able to review a 4-hour show due to the fact this thing called "productivity" kept me occupied. 

While the PPV was good, it's just way too long. Oh, and this episode of Dynamite was also pretty good. 

Summer Of Punk Is Back. 

The difference is that he's not going to lose to some guy named Paul Levesque. 

The new AEW champion teamed up with FTR to face Max Caster and the a** men. 

And of course, their a** wasn't enough to win the match as they lost to a finish formerly known as the shatter machine. 

A decent but surprisingly short opener considering how that company loves their matches to be Stranger Things episode 9 levels long. 

The segment didn't end here as NJPW legend Hiroshi Tanahashi appeared on Dynamite and pointed at the world title belt. 

Let's freaking go, boyz. 

Fans Went From Saying, "F**K YOU MAX!" To "Not Gonna Lie, My Man Is SPITTING Right Now" 

The crowd having THAT reaction goes to show you how good the guy is no matter how I feel about how one-dimensional that character is. 

I went from saying that the whole MJF AEW conflict of sorts isn't a work to it's absolutely a work. 

I'm not the biggest fan of the "shoot, shoot cowboy" promos mainly because it breaks the illusion a little too much and it's a cheap storytelling device but this was utilized to perfection especially given the circumstances surrounding the MJF AEW situation. 

Johnny Kind Of Elite!? 

I say that because my man lost to the returning Bulgarian destroyer and soon to be the new member of R/Atheism, Miro. 

Chris Jericho Loves His Sports Entertainment More Than The MAGA. 

But something that we love is some blood and guts as it's been confirmed in this scene that Jericho’s crew is facing Eddie Kingston and his posse in a blood and guts match. 

William Regal did announce blood and guts like the way he utters War Games. However, it's not the same without the word "War Games". 

Nevertheless, I appreciate it for short nostalgia reasons (and no, I'm not 18 years old). 

The Young Bucks And Red Dragon vs The Jurassic Express, Matt Hardy And Christian Cage. 

Unlike Johnny, the people that call themselves "Elite" actually won a match thanks to every antismark's favourite tag team, The Young Bucks. 

Jade Cargill Ain't Feeling For The Fallen Goddess. 

Great to see Stokely Hathaway doing his thing even if WWE didn't recognize his talent. 

Wardlow DESTROYS The Court Papers And Some Security Guards Provided By Mark Sterling. 

Wardlow is basically everyone after they heard that they got a pay cut that week. 

Britt Baker And Jamie Hayder vs Ruby Soho And Toni Storm. 

A solid tag team match for what it was. Soho and Storm won the match which led to an immediate beatdown from Britt Baker and Hayder. Coolinos. 

Jon Moxley vs Daniel Garcia. 

This match ruled harder than the Umayyad caliphate. The match ended with AEW's signature dish, a BRAWL! 

Tony Khan probably does the *chef's kiss*everytime he books a post-match/segment brawl. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Hiroshi Tanahashi, MJF spitting, Jon Moxley and Daniel Garzia killed it as well as Britt Baker, Jamie Hayder, Toni Storm and Ruby Soho, Stokely Hathaway. 

Didn't like: my man Johnny Elite be taking Ls like he's R Truth circa 2001.

WWE Eyeing On New Creative Writers.

Last week on RAW, The McMahon family announced that there will be new faces and fresh match ups. What better way to invoke change than to seek out new writers with different ideas right?  WWE are actively seeking for new writer's assistant positions with at least two years in writing television and or/ production experience and preferably but not necessary, a degree in Film/TV/Drama, Media Studies, Journalism, Communications, English, or related field of study.  For everyone who thinks they can do it better, here's your opportunity. Merry Christmas! https://t.co/FJch1rOXCM — Jimmy Korderas (@jimmykorderas) December 24, 2018 What do I think of this? As long as Vince is in charge, unfortunately, nothing is going to change for the better of the product but that's just me.  Let me know in the comments on how you would change the WWE product and follow the blog for honest pro wrestling opinions. Anyways, stay safe smarks. 

WWE RAW 13/9/21 | A Coherent Review.

Ya boy took a week off of talking about wrestling which is something I usually need after watching a single episode of Monday Night RAW but consistency is key, people!  In recent weeks, however, Monday Night RAW doesn't feel like mental torture and the latest episode is no exception.  Images via WWE.com Big E Was Like, "I'm Definitely Cashing In My Contract".  The lovable wholesome gyrating big man name Big E interacted with Randy Orton as well as Bobby Lashley ahead of the WWE title match between Bob and Randal.  The reason is obvious. Big E wants to cash in seeing Becky Lynch's mother again (that's not it?).  All lame jokes aside, the big man did cash in the contract to become the NEW WWE champion later in the episode after a successful title defence from Bobby Lashley against Randy Orton.  Words cannot describe how f**king happy I am seeing one of my favourite performers finally capture the gold which was long overdue if you ask me.  I will go as far as to

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
