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?

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...

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...

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 ...
