Thank god he's back to being Joseph Park. He's so broken down now that the clumsy, awkward style he uses as Park works much better for him than still trying to be the "Monster"

Solid stuff from the opening tag and Storm/EC3. Diamante interfering for LAX with a diving rana ruled. Kongo/Braxton was also pretty good for being much shorter but well executed match. Ultimate X was real fun with lots of cool spots throughout. Exciting finishing stretch and I dug Helms involvement, busting out the old top rope swing neckbreaker.

Beating up Bruce Prichard should make a person the biggest face in the company.

No matter how he's portrayed for doing that he's a face in my book.

I realise he's a heel, but that ripped jeans, jacket and tie combo Josh was wearing ffs.

And remember, this guy had a fashion podcast.  Even before turning heel some of his choices were a bit strange.

So I'm not sure exactly what Laurel Van Ness put in Mike Bennett's coffee to transform him into Kongo Kong, but she really shouldn't have let Maria Kanellis have some of it too. Her initials are the wrong way round now and everything.

Surprised more people aren't praising the Ultimate X match. I genuinely thought it was one of Low-Ki's career performances, no hyperbole. That guy took one of the dumber stips in wrestling and made it gold. Lee and Everett killed it as well, but it was hard for me to notice as I couldn't tear my eyes from whatever madness Ki was setting up at all times. It was an easy add to our 2017 MOTY List:

And to make it even more worse, when he leaves the ring he is dragging a backpack like the 15 year old he is dressed as.
