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.

AEW Dynamite Blood And Guts | A Coherent Review.

Another watchable episode of AEW Dynamite but this time, it features the first-ever Blood And Guts encounter. Kenny Omega And Michael Nakazawa vs Jon Moxley And Eddie Kingston.  Don Callis announced that Michael Nakazawa is going to face Mox and Kingston all by himself only for Kenny Omega to show up and compete in the match anyway.  A weird booking choice but I'm just nitpicking.  What wasn't weird was how the match ended with a double team dragon suplex into a clothesline from the duo of Mox and Kingston to Nakazawa.  Then, a beatdown ensued from Omega's Posse to Jonny Mox and Eddie Kingston. The Young Bucks vs Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston? I'm down.  It was revealed later in the night that a number one contenders match for the AEW championship is set up for next week's show between Orange Cassidy and Pac. I'm assuming AEW is saving the Hangman Page and Kenny Omega encounter for All Out?  Either way, AEW has the potential to tell an interesting story of ...

WWE RAW 5/10/20 | A Coherent Review.

I have not said this in a RAW review in a very long time but the show as a whole was straight up dogsh*t awful.  It's so bad that I didn't like one ounce about this program.  pictures via wwe.com Randy Orton Remembers His Match At Clash Of Champions.  The show started off with Randy Orton recalling certain aspects about the WWE championship match at Clash Of Champions.  Orton goes on to say that Drew doesn't deserve the championship because the legends interfered in the ambulance match.  The promo ended with Orton bringing up the fact that he beat up four legends last week on RAW (again, explain the physics behind this?).  Drew showed up and he laid waste on the guy.  Randy has been quite exceptional in the dialogue department but this ain't it.  The promo actually put me to sleep and the show didn't even hit 10 minutes up until that point.  If they suddenly end the rivalry like nothing happened, while it doesn't make sense, I'm all for it be...

WWE NXT UK Takeover: Cardiff | My Coherent Review.

via WWE I don't watch or review the first NXT UK Takeover for some odd reason but I'm so glad I did because that was like the main NXT Takeovers, was absolutely great to watch. I'm just speechless and if you have watched the show then you'll know why (also, if you somehow didn't watch this show, what are you doing? Go and treat yourself with some wrestling goodness.) Noam Dar vs Travis Banks.  A very enjoyable opening match. Noam Dar proves that he's great at what he does with so many submission holes because if you don't know, I'm a technical wrestling connoisseur. Noam Dar won the match with a standing shining wizard.  Cesaro vs Ilja Dragunov. Always great to see Cesaro do what he does best and that's a fight inside the square circle. So, Ilja called out Cesaro because Cesaro's looking for an open challenge and Cesaro obviously picked his challenger.  The Swiss Cyborg started off this match by throwing Dragunov to the outside ...
