Good dog collar main event turned in some epic bloodshed from Dani. She looked strong heading in to a future title shot.  X Division 6 way was a fun spotfest with a lot going on.  Lots of solid build for next week's war games style NXT vs. TNA cage match.

I really liked the Dog Collar. As soon as I saw it listed as the main I was like "yeah, watching that". Big big juice and all that work around the ringpost looked nasty. I've seen nothing from Dani (nice that her last name is Luna) before and all I remember of Indi is the hilarious moment when she got carried off by the dude with the gloves who's in the new Wyatts now (and their wedding! That was fun). His name completely escapes me. Anyway this made its nut as soon as Dani hit the enormous bladejob. 

I also watched some of a tag with guys I don't know, and man their stuff is so explosive and smooth, truly a new era of wrestling (/sarcasm). It really is physically impressive but I'd rather just watch Eddie Edwards chop people like later on.

EDIT: Dexter Lumis! How I remembered that I have no clue. That sneaky grin Indi gave as she looked over his shoulder was an all-time moment.
