Playard Wrestling Post

I've been so inconsistent with my content this year with me posting way less stuff than in my almost 4 years of inserting fart jokes in every piece (to the point where I haven't reviewed a PP….. Excuse me, PLE since this year's Wrestlemania) and I'm so sorry for that, my bot accounts and a particular head of PR.  With all of the BS out of the way, how was Summerslam? Almost 2 years ago, WWE produced one of the best Summerslams despite the sheer circumstances. Last year's? Not so much.  The *looks at the quarterly earnings* $90 million dollar question is, did this year's show deliver like Summerslam 2020 or was it a stinker like Omos' wrestling ability? It was somewhere in the middle like Dolph Ziggler's career but felt longer than an AEW PPV. But, if I had to give it a thumbs up or down, it's an easy thumbs up.  Bianca Belair vs Becky Lynch For The RAW Women's Championship.  Those ladies delivered once again. The KOD on the barricade was *chef

 The Coherent AEW recap. The only series where the word "consistency" is the equivalent of saying bloody Mary 3 times. And look guys, both AEW shows weren't all that bad aka a typical Tuesday.  Rampage.  Highlights.  Private Party vs Lucha Bros.  Oh, you know this match had a lot of SHOTS, SHOTS, SHOTS (in the taking some punches kinda way and not in the sense of drinking alcohol because I'm a halal boy).  The match was a little too short for my liking but it was sweeter than a peach-flavoured iced tea. Lucha Bros took the W here which means more rankings.  Some Other Things That Happened.  House of Black defeated the Dark Order's John Silver and Alex Reynolds - Something tells me that AEW needs a trios championship (no f**king sh*t, Omar).  Statlander and Athena defeated Renegade Twins - At least Athena's WWE main roster run included a several-month undefeated streak on RAW. This entire feud ain't it for her, the TBS championship and Jade Cargill.  Also,

12345, Monday Night RAW still sucks me dry (that was terrible but not as bad as Gudda Gudda infamous "I got her grocery bag" line).  This show had so many tag team matches, I thought for a second that Teddy Long was running the program.  Brock Lesnar Showed up, Spoke To Paul Heyman And Then Destroyed Alpha Academy.  Headline said everything. The line of "the one streak that Brock can't compete" referring to him not ending Roman's 700-day reign at Summerslam was perfect. As A matter of fact, that entire promo from Heyman was, no shocker, pretty good.   Damian Priest Called Rey Mysterio Old And Wanted Eddie's Son To Join The Judgment Day.   Not gonna lie, Finn Balor's promo on Rey being a bad father was the exact opposite of Heyman's promo in the opening segment.  Balor then faced "the bad father" Rey Mysterio, and it was fine.   The man with, unfortunately, the black tights won the match with the coup de grace.  No Shocker, A Becky Deman

 1234, Smackdown on Fridays are still a bore (for the most part at least).  Theory Messing With Roman Reigns After Paul Heyman's Promo.  How long do you think that Theory will pull a Baron Corbin circa 2017? As far as the segment itself before the Money In The Bank winner showed up, it was fine. Nothing too noteworthy in my opinion.  The Viking Raiders vs Shanky And Jinder Mahal.  Like the opening segment, the match wasn't memorable (Viking Raiders defeating Shanky and Mahal with a double powerbomb) but their newfound aggression (by laying waste on The New Day) is something they should've had since their main roster debut a few years ago.  I like it because the more I forget about the segments they had with The Street Profits, the better.  Shinsuke Nakamura vs Ludwig Kaiser.  A mostly one-sided match for the former IC champion and because of it, Nakamura defeated Kaiser with the Kinshasa.  After the match, Gunther gave Kaiser some discipline by giving him multiple chops whi

  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
