THE Coherent AEW Take: Rampage Was AWFUL!?

 WOW! Another AEW recap despite how inconsistent this written series is? This must be an odd kinda week, right? 

AEW Dynamite and Rampage were aight as a whole although I did find Rampage to be quite yawn-inducing despite being an hour-long program. 

Rampage. 

Highlights. 

None, unfortunately. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Satnam Singh led his partner (Jay Lethal) to victory as they defeated Dave Vega and Matt Fitchett - Still don't get the hype AEW has for the big guy. 

*Unenthusiastic* Yay, Will Ospreay's AEW in-ring debut - Cool.

Eddie Kingston defeated Jake Hager - Eddie Kingston aka wrestling's uncle. A decent match is all I'll say. 

Red Velvet lost to Kris Statlander then chaos ensued - This ain't an AEW Show without a brawl or two, right? 

Dynamite. 

Highlights. 

Jurassic Express vs The Young Bucks For the AEW World Tag Team Championship In *Dario Cueto's Voice* A LADDER MATCH! 

Ladder match? The Young Bucks? A recipe for an enjoyable encounter. The Jackson bros won the championship for the 3rd time. The first tag team in AEW to do so. 

That led to an unprettier and a conchairto from Christian to Jungle Boy. I guess both Edge and Christian had to……...switch roles (get it? Switch? Kill switch?).

Dax Hardwood vs Will Ospreay. 

Dax honestly carried Ospreay (FIGHT ME!). The match ruled harder than the captain of the Normandy spaceship. 

Ospreay won the match with an elbow to Dax's head and guess what happened? 

A brawl happened but luckily, it didn't last long as Orange Cassidy appeared and confronted the former IWGP champion. 

Some Other Things That Happened. 

Chris Jericho defeated Ortiz in a hair vs hair match - RIP Ortiz's long locks. I had to lose my afro when I found out my hair was receding faster than the speed of light. 

Also, Sammy Guevara reuniting with Jericho was the most Vince Russo level of plot twist I've ever seen all week.

Wardlow goes to war with a bunch of security guards - aka a 100 million-view clip waiting to happen. Also, really?  Wardlow siding with a guy that lost a boxing match with a vine star (bro, if I was him, you "guys" will never see me again). 

Oh, look. Another brawl/beatdown segment. This time between Jon Moxley, Hiroshi Tanahashi and Jericho Appreciation Society  - AEW loves their brawl more than Vince McMahon's treatment of women. 

Ethan Page lost to Miro in the All-Atlantic championship tournament - BULGARIA STRONG!  

Toni Storm defeated Britt Baker - the doctor is indeed down. 

Jay White said to both Hangman Page and Adam Cole, "no championship opportunity for y'all" - so, they're basically Man United then.

WWE NXT Takeover: Toronto | My Coherent Review.

Another month or so, another great NXT Takeover event courtesy of the NXT creative team filled with top-notch in-ring action and storytelling. I know it feels tiresome when you heard people praise highly talk about the Takeover shows but trust me they are that good.  The Street Profits vs The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship. During the match, Montez Ford delivered the people's elbow after hitting a spinebuster on Bobby Fish. The match ended with a frog splash from Montez Ford and The Street Profits continues to celebrate as tag team champions.  I'm very conflicted with this decision mainly because I don't want to see more okay matches between The Forgotten Sons and Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan but I'm going to be optimistic hoping that it's not the case.  Io Shirai vs Candice Lerae.  Io's theme song is simple yet badass at the same time (no shit, Omar). The match started off with Candice rushing to the ring and brawled on the outs...

WWE RAW 13/7/20 | A Coherent Review.

I didn't like this show. Thankfully, this episode didn't pull a Smackdown but because of how well last week's show went, I felt really underwhelmed watching that.   MVP Lounge. Special Guest, Dolph Ziggler.  Montel Von Porter welcomed his guest that shares a common hatred for Drew McIntyre and that guest is, of course, Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler compliments the new United States championship design to which MVP let him know that he'll talk to his people and get a new WWE championship design once the show-off, wins the championship (and honestly, Ziggler's got a point, the WWE Title needs a new design).  Dolph further tells MVP that he's the reason why Drew defeated Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE title.  Out came the Scotsmen himself and he basically said that he'll beat the crap out of him and Dolph got a bit of that with a punch. An enjoyable segment.  The thing I kind of appreciate about this feud is that Dolph...

Finn Balor Is Indeed Out Of Action.

A couple of days ago, WWE announced that Finn Balor suffered an injury and didn't specify on what the injury was. His last match, by the way, was a triple threat match at a house show last Wednesday in Santiago, Chile against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre to which McIntrye won.  It turns out that Finn wasn't dealing with an injury at all, at least according to Mike Johnson over at  PWinsider . Instead, Balor is dealing with an illness and couldn't continue the Latin America tour. Finn is also unable to compete on the Mixed Match Challenge, replacing him with Apollo Crews. But the powers that be believe that he's 100% ready for TLC next week. Here's what he had to say about that via Twitter:  I am sorry I could not preform in #WWEBuenosAires Lo siento no pude competir en #WWEBuenosAires — Finn Bálor forEVERYone (@FinnBalor) December 7, 2018   I wish him nothing but a speedy recovery.  By the way, I report on the 5 major or minor news of ...
