A Few Thoughts On: CM PUNK Going ALL OUT At The SCRUM!?

To all my 4 and a half viewers, remember when I said that was going to be consistent with the content considering that I posted 4 articles in July but then it turns out that I posted 3 articles in the month of August? 

Well, let's just pretend it didn't happen (like WWE's continuity before Vinnie Mac left). 

Since both shows were happening around the same time, I figured that I'll give you my brief thoughts on WWE clashing at a Welsh castle as well as AEW going all out once again in Chicago (I know it's not technically Chicago so do not Ben Sharpio outta this, YOU GEEK). 

WWE Clash At The Castle. 

WWE's first main roster UK PPV since the fall of nu metal and it rocked hard man (get it? Rocked? Nu metal? *sigh* maybe that's why I've written 3 articles). 

Pretty much every single match stole the show. 

The 6 woman tag match is exactly what AEW needs right now for their women's division and it's a sense of adrenaline and overall momentum. 

Gunther and Sheamus is what I expected this bout to be, which is big meaty men slapping meat. 

Dominik finally stood up to Rey Mysterio presumably because the kid realizes that Eddie Guerrero is his real Papi. 

Seth Rollins legit stomped Riddle's b**** a** not once but twice. 

While Drew McIntyre's broken dreams entrance was rad, it wasn't enough to end Roman Reigns' championship reign which feels like it lasted longer than Supernatural. 

Maybe they could build a storyline where Sami Zayn wins the Royal Rumble, building further tension between Zayn and Roman Reigns (as well as the entire bloodline) that'll lead to a Wrestlemania main event where he finally turns babyface? 

A man can only dream. 

Also, no surprise, World's Collide was really good. 

AEW All Out 2022. 

AEW's PPVs may be longer than a typical YouTube essay video but it's at least okay. 

In short, I didn't love it or hate it. 

The Acclaimed’s Max Caster referencing Lizzo like every reactionary white dude with a podcast that nobody listens to (oh, like yours Omar?). Nevertheless, the world tag title match was pretty rad and by far, my match of the night. 

That post-show scrum was insane, to say the least. First off, CM Punk having a deep voice that rivals Pop Smoke (rip) on top of that bizarre, made his speech all the more awkward. 

What's funny about all of this is I couldn't find a single article (whether from reliable sources such as F4Wonline or Fightful) stating that Punk made an attempt to fire his former BFF (yuck Omar, that was cringe) Colt Cabana.

So, congratulations CM Punk for giving MJF a Triple H circa 2002 like babyface pop. 

Speaking of people going off, Tony Khan was like, "I got more money than that old white wrestling promoter from the 70s/80s" and guys, what do you expect? He's a billionaire. 

So yeah, yay to the Elite guys?

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  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...

WWE Smackdown 14/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

WOAH, WOOOOOAH *Insert drums* BURN IT DOWN *insert more drums* Don't know why I just quoted Seth Rollins' theme song. Probably because I'm bored and have nothing else better to do on a Saturday afternoon (which explains the Smackdown review).  Now, how was the show? It was aight.  The Viking Raiders vs Angel And Humberto Carrillo vs Jinder Mahal And Shank vs Mansoor And Cesaro. Winner Gets A Blue Tag Belt Opportunity.  The best part about all of this was The Usos introduction of all 4 members. Gotta say, they're pretty natural at this and wouldn't mind them doing ring announcing full time.  The only thing they should avoid is threatening somebody with WWE lawyers.  The Viking Raiders won the whole thing and all I can say is, finally! No more Viking Raiders vs Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss matches.  Why WWE Be Messing With Sami Like That!?  That "InZayn" stunt show is sad to watch. He should've been doing so much better than trying to do knockoff Jacka**...

The 5 News Week: Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions?, WWE Made How Much From YouTube!?

We're back. Well, I'm back given that I do this all by myself but in any case, The 5 News Week has returned to your feeds wherever ever it may be. In case you're new here, basically, in one article I share the 5 major or minor news of the week. Now, there were a lot of news that I've missed in 3 weeks including a story of a WWE shareholder suing WWE and Vince McMahon (how the hell didn't I report about this?).  I'm rambling on so without further useless explanations, here are the 5 News Week.  Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions? Steve Austin has interviewed some of the wrestlers he has faced over the years on his Broken Skull Sessions show with the exception of Goldberg other than a few stare downs in a feud that everyone wishes to forget.  Another person that is no stranger to the rattlesnake is the hitman himself Bret Hart and he's reportedly the next guest. From PWInsider and Mike Johnson, Bret was in the City ...
