(End of Show).
My Rating 4.8/10 A Badish Impact. Nothing really special about it. Some small advances but still. A Disapointing show if you thought it was going to be differnt and more entertaining.
Best Parts
1. Knockouts Tag. Nice match, best match on the show.
2. Dreamer/AJ/Ray.Daniels segment. Nice segment, let's see where it goes.
3. Sting/Anderson short & sweet. Anderson looked alot like Old Sting haha. But Where was RVD tonight?
50/50 Parts
1. Opening Segment. Nothing special about it kinda went on too long. It was very forgetable.
2. X-Title Match. Nothing special. Kinda boring.
3. Samoa/Crimson. Their just stale together, segment did its part tho to keep the stale fued going.
4. Hannicaped Match. Did it's showing Love can lose. Excited to see where the story goes, But kinda went on too long.
Worst Parts
1. New name of show which equals nothing!
2. Added Audio really annoying let the fan be themself or don't invite anyone to your taping.
3. Video Recaps & Video Packages from the PPV. Some people like me and only 7K others orded the PPV, if you don't want us buying the PPVs if you will show stuff free, just tell us.
4. Mike Tenay. From Tenay hearing things(with horrible acting added on) and his being a moron acting has to go, time for Jeremy Borash to replace him. Borash & Taz work very well together on Xplosion and bring a fun feel to the show.
5. Videos of "Fans" talking about "Wrestling Matters" zzzzzzzzzzzz
6. Angle/Jarrett its time to move on this is just getting boring. Both are great but together has become boring. Oh my its the "I want your medal" story again.
7. Tag Match. Boring, and having Eric be a karate master is lame when you have him get KO'd most of the time why dosen't he use karate then.(oh its a magicaly suit).
8. Flair/Roode Boring went on too long.
