It really comes off like Santino would eventually get a title shot but I don't know if he got cleared/decided to start wrestling again

Since they taped these shows over the course of one or two days, I wonder how many times Aries got nailed with that Kendo stick in one sitting?

Not enough?

Solid tag wrestling, great main event, and awesome angles continuing on this episode. Womens' tag was a fun and exciting opener. OGz squash was fittingly brutal and the post-match brawl after brought the chaos. Loved the whole Aries/Carelli angle and weaving that into Eddie attacking before his title shot, plus a super cool unexpected closing shot for the show with Kross, that was badass.

the Eli Drake match was amusing throughout. Laughed out loud when Josh said "man JB sure has aged terribly" in reference to Bob Kapoor. As always the backstage bits in between while small add a ton to the show, really digging Sydal's promo work as of late. Definitely an air of excitement throughout the show. Excellent main event as is the norm for those guys, oVe and the Lucha Bros work very well together.

Not seen the whole show yet but caught the Scarlett Bordeaux segment on YouTube.  Does anyone have an update on Bobo Kapoor? #prayforBobo
