They packed a solid amount into this episode with the opening tag and main event being the highlights. Always dig the different look from the 'on the road' matches added to the show as well. Sydal/Petey was good stuff for being a shorter match.

It is awesome that these shows were taped three months ago so I can make my decision about whether to watch it or not far in advance.

I will have to log off from Destiny 2 long enough to see the Rosemary / Hania rumble and the Kongo Kong / Joseph Park match.  The rest of that card can go kick rocks.

I may be pants free during the ladies brawl.

Settle down, Hollywood JT-Netico

You would not tell Dean to settle down if he'd said that, and he says stuff like that all of the time.

I have been singled out.

Wow that ending was so stupid and unnecessary.   It starts off awful with Sami throwing a chair that accidently smacks the ref in the back of the leg.   So Sami puts the chair on his stomach because nobody knows.  Eddie has to hold on to the fucking chair which was so obvious.  Sami just shoots hits him in the head with the bat.  What was the fucking purpose of the chair on the stomach?  Was he supposed to hit the chair and his vision is the shits

I thought he was supposed to hit the chair but yeah that was very odd and Eddie just got nailed in the face which busted him up bad. They didn't show him again immediately after to avoid any of the blood I guess. Other than that, fun show with nothing too major but next week looks stacked. KM was hilarious in his role. The suddenness of Braxton's turn was weird with nothing really explaining that. This Rosemary/Hania match was even shorter than the last and was pretty one sided all the way through so the whole Hania situation was rather bizarre. But it's great to see Taya back, she's always a highlight so her and Rosemary continuing their feud should be awesome. Enjoyed the LAX segment with Caleb and Trevor.  Looking forward to next week's matches.

Yeah, that Rosemary / Hania match looked good on paper but the booking was horrible. 

Now I know why she got a 'tude and wouldn't job to Su Yung, since they brought Hania in as a contender and then clowned her gimmick in this blow-off.  At least Taya is back.

Kongo Kong vs. Park Park Park is always money.

From the TMZ article on it. Crazy

Pro Wrestler TAKES BAT TO THE FACE IN STUNT GONE WRONG... Breaks Eye Socket

Edwards was wrestling against Sami Callihan in Orlando -- when Sami was supposed to use a baseball bat to smash a folding chair down on Edwards.

But the bat ricocheted off the chair and accidentally struck Edwards over his right eye.

Edwards was taken to a nearby hospital where he was treated for a broken orbital bone and a broken nose. There was A LOT of blood.

Impact Wrestling says doctors told Edwards he's lucky his vision wasn't permanently impaired as a result of the injury.

Edwards joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs weeknights on FS1) and told us what the bat to the face felt like, and how his recovery is comin' along. 

As for Callihan, we're told he felt terrible about the accident and was very emotional about the situation behind the scenes.

As stupid and dangerous as the spot was, the idea that it is making a huge deal now is funny as hell.  This happened almost 2 months ago.  Half of the people at these tapings have quit the company.  It isn't like we didn't know it happened.  Eddie Edwards put those same pictures about his eye weeks after the taping to explain why he couldn't wrestle for a while.   This is the ultimate wrestling version of "if a tree falls in the woods and nobody hears it does it make a sound"
