The 5 News Week: NXT UK In TROUBLE!?

 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. 

Former WWE Writer On Backstage FEARS Coming From VINCE MCMAHON!? 

On an episode of Freddie Prinze Jr's "Wrestling With Freddie" Podcast (I know it's a week or so old, sorry), his co-host Jeff Dyke noted regarding the fear Vince McMahon had created backstage and James Vega was like, "yea, that's true" (from WrestlingInc): 

"I can confirm that, I've heard that from a ton of people already."

In other news, Italians hate anything garlic related in their food. 

Who Does Ciampa Want To Work With On RAW? 

The answer is a lot of guys telling Wrestling Inc: 

"There's a plethora of guys I want to have programs with — not just matches, like programs: AJ Styles, and Finn Balor, and Kevin Owens, and Seth Rollins, man. I've been on the road with [Seth], and it's just like, geez, he's good. He gets it. He's good. Randy Orton when he's all healthy and stuff and gets back."

NXT UK In TROUBLE!? 

Terf Island is looking really spooky right now and it does make sense since NXT UK has the same viewership as Brad Shepard's Patreon. 

Everyone's favourite, Dave Meltzer of F4Wonline heard some information regarding the uncertainty of NXT's D- brand, (yea, Omar we get it. You got it from WrestlingInc): 

"There is a lot of uneasiness within the NXT UK crew, the next two sets of television tapings were canceled on 8/9. The reason given was that BT Sports Studios, where they tape, had to be used for football/soccer coverage. 

But as you can imagine with the talent how the reaction is, given you could tape somewhere else and shutting down tapings is never a good sign. Nobody really has been told anything."

There Wasn't ANY CREATIVE INFLUENCE From Vince McMahon Regarding NXT 2.0!?

At least if you believe what Shawn Michaels had to say in an interview with Bleacher Report: 

"When Hunter first left, it became all me, and certainly from a television standpoint," Michaels said while speaking with Bleacher Report. "Matt Bloom is the head coach and takes care of everything from a PC training standpoint, but when it came to "NXT 2.0" television, that's something myself and my team took over creatively. I know a lot of people thought Vince and Bruce were doing that. I can promise you, they did not have the time to do "NXT" television. If it's good or if it's bad, that's on me."

Yea, that's right. All the distraction finishes and "once best friends now bitter enemies" cliche? ALL MY IDEA! 

Adam Cole CLEARED To COMPETE!?

Davey boy Meltzer got some news for us. According to him via the Observer Radio, he mentioned that the man behind The Chugs is cleared to compete "relatively soon". 

Let's freaking go. 


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

WWE Survivor Series 2018 | My Coherent Review.

Hello, my fellow wrestling fans reading this and welcome to my coherent review for Survivor Series 2018. Overall, it was a very entertaining show throughout with some minor issues and here's why.  (KICK OFF SHOW) Tag team Survivor Series match  This match was a great example of a skippable match until the last moments.  Xavier Woods did the springboard elbow drop and both members of The Revival countered that into a shatter machine which look amazing.  Minutes later, Scott Dawson hit a superplex to Jimmy Uso and an immediate frog splash from Dash Wilder to a near fall.  After that, Both Usos hit a superkick to Dash followed by a Uso splash and just like that, the Smackdown team took the W which WWE wants to forget about that (so stupid). A decent match but with a boring start in my opinion.  (MAIN SHOW) Women’s Survivor Series match  Before the match started when Nia Jax’s music hit, she got volcanic heat from the Los Ang...

WWE Smackdown 20/8/21 | A Coherent Review.

  That CM Punk return was so noteworthy, it blew this entire episode out of the water. That’s it. That’s the opening statement.  Images via WWE.com   Edge Wasn't Playing When He Said That He'll Put Seth Into Darkness.  The show started off with the Rated R superstar saying that Rollins has made the guy find his heart when the blood runs black.  In other words, he'll beat the shit out of Rollins at slamming of summer.  Speaking of "the blood runs black", after Seth Rollins gave a speech on how he can't be on Sethy's level, the man that says "drip" more times than a white dude that streams on Twitch, was covered in black liquid following Gangrel's theme song playing in the background.  Edge ain't f**king around. I appreciated the uniqueness of the segment and how it was a tribute to WWE's continuity (which if you've been watching WWE for a longer period of time then you'll know that WWE acknowledging their storytelling cohesion ...

Netflix's The Main Event | A Coherent Review.

Last spring, WWE had announced that they've partnered with Netflix to create content via their movie division on the streaming service. In other words, Netflix decided to feature even more badly marketed and awfully made movies. Luckily, WWE's latest joint isn't that bad at all. Don't get me wrong, it's no " Marriage Story " but, it does pull off a capable effort of telling a story about being yourself (warning, this   review contains a few minor spoilers).  The premise of this movie goes like this. An 11-year-old wrestling fan named Leo (played by Seth Carr) finds a luchador mask that gives him superhuman strength and agility. He then applied his new-found powers to in-ring action where he competes in a $50,000 WWE NXT tournament.  If it sounds familiar, that is because it's pretty much the premise of the film " Like Mike " with obvious differences like this movie is wrestling themed instead of basketball, it stars an 11-yea...
