Overall a decent show, finished strong and everyone seemed to work hard. The production and presentation for a live show still really sucks though.

I just read Alberto was supposed to win the belt here and that Austin Aries is only working two days of the week's TV tapings, so is he done with them too? Is this their new plan, just cycle in talent in and out without the long term contractual obligations?

Given they tape several months worth of episodes at a time, probably saves them money just to cycle talent and give a short-term re-up if needed

Yeah I guess it's not the worst idea in the world. A lot of guys don't want to get bogged down in a contract unless it's WWE at this point so offering them these deals might make more sense.

Aries was never signed, he just was on limited dates. With the relationship they have going with Lucha Underground, AAA and NOAH I could see your idea about cycling talent in and out happening.

This was an excellent PPV. I really enjoyed the show from top to bottom.

Scotty pulling out the top rope frankensteiner :wow:

Aerostar vs Drago was good

The 6 way match was great and Cage didn't look out of place at all. They all showed out.

Never noticed how big Taya is, she's an amazon type but with softer body. Tessa was killing Josh on commentary.

House of Hardcore match was insane, Eddie losing his shyt and accidentally going upside his wife's head :mjlol: That visual of Sami on the ropes motionless was :wow: that's how it should always be done.

Knockouts match was aight.

Didn't think Pentagon or Fenix would win but it was a welcome surprise CERO MIEDO PUTO! That Gory Special combo move was dope. I give the show 4 stars.
