I liked Morton's promo a lot. He was so much more than the ultimate FIP that he is remembered for. Not a guy who would carry your promotion, but definitely somebody you would want around. I LOVED Eddie's promo. He has been on fire of late.

It looked like the ref was saying that Lizmark's arm was keeping Satanico's shoulders off the mat. Too bad the slow mo replay showed him counting Lizmark out when his shoulder was up well before the ref's hand hit. Satanico is amazing and I liked this match a lot. I really dug the focus on Satanico's back as a way to stay ahead by Lizmark.

Not great match, but three things stood out positively for me. Hansen has a brutal running crossbody. They did make Ace look smart in not eating the Hansen lariat. If you are in front of it you are in the danger zone and him knowing that is a positive. And that look Hansen got on his face after the first lariat missed was amazing.

This is right up my alley. The legwork makes a ton of sense as the one thing your opponent leaves open when going after your legs are their own. Please tell me there are more matches from these 2 on tape?

Crowd was not super into Vader right away. I like Sting giving Vader a bunch of offense to make him credible before the shine. I loved this match as David vs. Goliath, with David getting a little too ambitious for his own good when he had Goliath on the ropes. Awesome stuff and probably my MOTY so far.

I was a huge fan of Austin in this match too. He's a power wrestler who bumps like a junior and shows good technique. It's kind of a ridiculous combination. The match does get slow in spots, but that may be due to the time they give it. Great shine, great heat, the crowd ate up the hot tag and really got behind Dustin. Maybe not the best these guys had, but they were wrestling later on the show too.

Pillman looked super off here. He just was out of position or not paying attention about 33% of the time he was in the ring. Sleeze and I are 100% in agreement on Liger/Steamer. I was hoping and praying they had a singles match on tape somewhere because it looks like it would be AMAZING. I thought Koloff did well, especially against Liger. Oddly, Koloff was more entertaining than Pillman for most of this. Still a fun match that has great stuff in between the question marks. The interview with Watts was fine. At least we know, even if it is stupid.

I don't know about better than the Kroffat/Furnas match. I love that match a lot. This one is right up there though. Fuchi is amazing in that he rarely does anything that is spectacular at all, but he's so good at everything he does you don't even notice. Kikuchi really brought it in this match and I loved the staredown with Fuchi. I know Kikuchi didn't get many wins over Fuchi, so I am always stoked when I watch one.

The match was really good and I loved Eddie's reaction to the special referee. Good detail work on the holds and Morton is way more versatile than anyone thinks he is. I would like to point out that they are recycling the Flair/Lawler World Title match from the 80s pretty blatantly.

I loved this compared to the AJW style. Everything had meaning and room to breathe before the next major development came along. Loved the arm work after Oz realized there was no way she was going to beat Kansai at her own game. And Kansai's selling. As a BTW, if a person who knew how to kick did that to somebody on the ground like they meant it it's either the hospital or the morgue. Nasty kicks.
