Quite enjoyed this, but the day looked damnn hot to be wrestling
Johnny V vs Masked
Found this match to work pretty well, I liked Derringers help.
- Cleannnnest fall-away slam
- Dive to outside looked good from V
- Tramp spot could have been better, but that woulda involved hurting his back more on the metal. Eh, was still good
- Hey was nice
- Spinebuster seemed kinda out of place, I wouldn't believe a guy like V doing that to this massive dude
- Swanton was nice for the finish
Enjoyed the promo, your lunges at Linny amused me. Nice to see yarding getting a talk up, and seeing the title being available again
Iron Chef Showdown: This was OK, but I found it kind of predictable. Babs needed to work on his bumping, and a bit more refinement was needed
- Hose trip was a nice touch
- Powerbomb counter was cool, but would have been better if he had sat out, not kneeled
- Bump on the Hey was not good. Not sure why he couldn't just fall forward
- Chair kick looked good
- Finish was weak, some more inventive leg sub would have been better. Right idea though
Triple Threat: I really enjoyed this, you guys came up with some really inventive stuff and it went down a treat. Well done
- Cross' new ring attire is sexy
- Powerbomb was nice
- The choke, tie up spot was sweet. What the fuck was that red stuff, it looked like red licqorice
- Backstabber a bit low, woulda looked better if Cross had jumped into it
- No effect crossbody made me laugh
- Brutal trapper to finish. Well delieverd and well taken, looked sick
Main Event: I love The Mars Volta, but I might have gone with one of their different songs, maybe Wax Simulacra? I dunno just a thought. Match was solid, and damn intense, so well done on that
- Backflip with Cross' thumbs up was funny
- Stifffff back club
- Really like the test of strength/northern lights kinda thing. Clean and effective
- Arm drag off tramp was good, as too was superkick
- Suplex to chairs looked rough. His back was in a baddd shape. Good move, shame the chairs didn't break
- Triangle choke was a bit lazy, strikes didn't look solid enough and legs weren't really wrapped to choke
- Ending surprised me. Would have liked to see a double stomp or some other big spot from Linny before the end. However, I did like the use of two choke-out moves in a row to finish of
New champ, hopefully will keep everything going strong. Overall really liked the event, just a few minor things to work on, but given the conditions you guys did reallly well. Keep it up
