WWE RAW 11/4/22 | A Coherent Review.

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 Demands Something From A Black Woman. 

That demand was a RAW women's championship at Summerslam. Eh. Speaking of which, a good old-fashioned distraction finish led to a count-out loss for Belair. White women, am I right? 

Guys, the strange creepy vignettes we've been seeing since Money In The Bank are clearly alluding to the Gobbledy Gooker. Prove me wrong. 

Ezekiel And AJ Styles vs The Miz And Ciampa.

It really sucks that Ciampa is essentially 2022's Tyson Tomko. 

The match itself was aight and of course, it ended in some sort of f**kery aka a disqualification thanks to Ciampa breaking the count by relentlessly beating Styles.  

Asuka And Alexa Bliss vs Nikki A.S.H And Doudrop. 

Another okay tag team match. Bliss led her tag partner to victory by pinning her former teammate, Nikki A.S.H. 

The Street Profits And R Truth vs Omos And The Usos. 

This entire match was set up after both R Truth and MVP (on behalf of Omos) debated a little bit on who's the special guest referee for The Street Profits vs Usos encounter. 

And the match was actually decent. This is yet another example of why Omos can't be stopped as he led his team to victory with a double chokeslam to Angelo Dawkins. 

Bobby Lashley And Riddle vs Seth Rollins And Titan aka Theory. 

Yet another tag team match? After the baby faces prevailed in the main event, Dolph Ziggler gave Theory a superkick which means another time that Dolph eventually takes an L again. 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: Paul Heyman killed it on the mic as per usual. 

Didn't like: So many tag team matches, is Teddy Long the new WWE official?

The 5 News Week: WWE Ditching Full Script Promos? NXT Superstars Still Expected To Move To The Main Roster?

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.  NXT Superstars Still Expected To Move To The Main Roster? Although the yellow brand is much better in terms of how they approach storylines subjectively speaking, of course, it is still a developmental brand after all even though it doesn't feel like so.  I'm sure you guys have heard of reports (more specifically from post wrestling ) that a draft is coming next month and the NXT Superstars will still be called on either RAW or Smackdown hence not being treated as a third equal brand.  That is all coming from Dave Meltzer and The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. I really enjoyed when the main roster guys like Tyson Kidd in 2014, Brezzago, Apollo Crews for a bit move to NXT and those moves makes that brand more legit but I and you guys should keep i...

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...

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 ...
