amazing red retains x division belt against homicide in an always exciting opener!
odb and taylorita beat lazy von erich, Velvet the jobber and madison the jobber. it was pants!
british invasion beat beer money with a distaction by kevin nash. nash stole the legends belt from eric young to seemingly give to hogan.
in a match that they wre building for months it payed of well. as tara powerbombed the 350 pound kong in a fantastic cage match.
team 3d and rhino beat the team of hernandez, matt morgan and the black pope the crowd were hot for this match and it was great.
Desmond wolfe (formerly known as Nigel McGuinness) put up but was shut down by angle in a pure wrestling classic! it had the crowd chanting this is wrestling. the moves were solid the story telling was believable, and every move was sold to a tee. it gets my rare 6/5
the pace was slowed down a bit by the main event as aj styles retained against Samoa Joe and Christopher daniels. a good match but there was so many on that night!
so thats it it may be a while before you hear from me hoplefully id be having a laptop of my own for christmas
