The 5 News Week: BREAKING NEWS. Vince Russo Has GONE MAD. More At 11.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans and welcome to the 5 news week. The post where I report 5 major or minor pro wrestling news, rumours and spoilers of the week that I don't have time to do it separately. Without further ado, here are the 5 news week. 

BREAKING NEWS. Vince Russo Has GONE MAD. More At 11. 

Now, why did I type that headline? 

Well, it's because the man with more plot twists in him than an M Night Shamhammer movie said in Sportskeeda's Writing With Russo show (y'all are legit desperate for content, huh) that Vince McMahon should use Stephanie's then brief absence as a storyline (From Sportskeeda): 

“Can you imagine if we talk to Vince or Vince tweets out, ‘Man, I just watched Stephanie’s interview. I never in my wildest dreams thought a McMahon could be that weak,’” Russo said. “Just stuff like that. That’s how you’re gonna grab people’s attention."

Why does Russo feel this way? Because he's WILD. Also, if he starts a sentence with "can you imagine", then you know he's going to say some dumb things. 

Quick Thoughts On Smackdown Yesterday. 

Yesterday's episode of Smackdown really and I mean, REALLY sucked. Vince McMahon's meaningless opening segment to Brock Lesnar returning as Roman Reigns' opponent for Summerslam. 

A match-up that I'm sick of so much, I would rather Roman face R Truth. 

Hardy Boyz Were Supposed To Be AEW Tag Team CHAMPIONS!? 

Yea. That was going to happen if you believe what their snitch told Fightful Select. 

In the report, they've noted that the plan for the Hardy Boyz to have a tag team title run was as recent as a few weeks back. But, the match between the Swanton bros and The Young Bucks "altered those plans". 

Thank God those plans had to change due to what's going on with Jeff Hardy because that would've been a PR nightmare.  

Why Did The WWE Title Unification Happen? 

WELLLLLLLLLL. Wrestlevotes statement that it's due to the creative team's idea of having the tribal chief appear on both shows regularly. 

However, a wise old man once said, "plans changed" (you know WWE, you could just do that without Roman winning the WWE championship since you care about the brand split so much more than another Evolution show). 

Jay White NOT INTERESTED In "Any Dream Matches!?" 

He said that when Forbidden Door is right around the corner? Sheesh. In an interview with Tokyo Sports, Jay White has mentioned that he isn't seeking dream match "call-outs" (from Post Wrestling): 

"A title match [at Forbidden Door] is not something I am particularly interested in. If they (AEW) insist on it, I’d be happy to do it, but my job is done with a sold-out show. All I have to do now is compete on the show as a champion.

I’m not interested in fighting anyone from AEW right now. I’ve already proven that I’m the best in the world, and I’m at a level where other fighters want to fight me. I’m not interested in what people call a dream match."

What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy? Anyways, stay safe smarks.

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 ...
