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 Smackdown 14/2/20 | My Coherent Review.

Last night was my 2nd anniversary of pumping out written content on this site and I thought since this show has delivered 6 or sometimes 3 out of 10s for 4 months now, I've written some lyrics about my thoughts on Smackdown in the style of the current song opening for the blue brand.  If you wanna put the instrumental version of ACDC's Are You Ready while reading this then that's cool too.  *Cue the intro* Are you Ready?  Are you ready for mediocrity! Then, get ready for disappointment.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.  No one needs it.   Even Bischoff.  Are you ready for mediocrity! *ends with some guitar solos*.  The lyrics may suck but it is at least better than whatever the hell Justin Bieber meant when he sang his current single "Yummy".  Now, on with the review. The Return Of A Moment Of Bliss (Unlike The Return Of The Dirt Sheets, Nobody Really Cares).  Both Bliss...

The 5 News Week: An NXT Segment Getting Some Backstage Praise!?

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.  some pictures via WWE.com Stephanie McMahon One Of The Best Heels In The Attitude Era? Jim Ross Thinks So.  Jimmy Ross recently talked about the role Stephanie McMahon and whether she was "one of the best heels we had in the attitude era" (from sescoops ):  “I always believe she was one of the best heels that we had in the Attitude Era. Because she took so much after her dad.” Stephanie played as the spoiled rich daughter of an a*h*ole boss and that is a dish of easy heel heat.  Stephanie McMahon's spoiled brat type of heel moulded well with a vicious, opportunist of a bad guy that Triple H portrayed as during the era of the McMahon/Hemsley faction.  Without her constant presence on TV, A piece of Triple H's persona especially in the year 2000, would b...

Priscilla Kelly Used A Tampon In A Wrestling Match: Right Or Wrong?

    If you have been away from social media for the past day or so, a wrestler by the name of Priscilla Kelly (who by the way, recently competed in the second Mae Young Classic tournament) competed in a match in which she pulled out her tampon and put it on her rival's mouth. That struck the wrestling world on Twitter with differences of opinions. She did respond to this on Twitter and here's what she had to say: Hey guys. Ya know, it's all fake. 21+ show with a bar. Can't take life so serious all the time. Call me what you will... 🌹 — The Priscilla Kelly (@priscillakelly_) January 5, 2019 What do I think of this? I don't understand why this became as viral as it is considering that we've seen hardcore, brutal, disgusting stuff in a wrestling match before. However, it did get an "ugh" reaction out of me.  Was it right or wrong that she did this? My answer is none considering that wrestling is subjective and there's no such thing ...
