Show Thoughts

well we came back strong after having our worst show ever with our best show heading into our PPV.

Very pleased with Kaz and his work so we'll see what happens with the cruiserweights.

The two matches that were thrown in for filler weren't great, but that's expected. Overall I was pleased with the show tonight.

Kevin Sullivan missed the show so I'll have to warn him tomorrow.
