Double-header weekend...WOO~! I feel old.
Attendance was solid; summer can be a tough time for drawing fans. Crowd energy was up and down throughout the night. Announced lineup had no changes.
It seemed like there were a lot of screwy finishes, even if it was just a brief distraction in a few cases.
Alexandre Rudolph's face/heel status in Dynamo has been a bit wishy-washy in the past year, but it looks like he's now solidified as a face.
I swear the local ring ropes are jinxed...at least in this case it was the bottom rope and didn't affect the match too badly.
I don't know if the match order was changed at all due to the rope issue. Either way, it was fortunate that they did the promo between the no-DQ match and the tornado tag match to separate the two wild brawls.
C.J. McManus did the karaoke/lounge singer wannabe gimmick in the LWA and now it's back for an encore, so to speak...
Had heard that Santel would be making his Dynamo debut and it looks like McDarby's along for the ride. Solid matchup with Kevin X...hope they'll be back in the future.
Strychnine's blatant rulebreaking(particularly the low blows like the Toxic Shock) may not fly too well in the current environment. GCW took the ECW route of "relaxed rules" and Nikki usually got away with tactics like that.
I had wondered about the status of the other Church Of Karrington guys...Dice resurfaced at ringside but Adam Rich is still MIA. Injury?
Quite a few things were set up for the future as we've got Cruz, Kevin X, and Dirden all gunning for Walsh's title. The Tag Title feud continues with the Bumrush Brothers(and Rudolph?) against the Travis Cook Organization, plus we've got the old-school Gateway guys against the Church Of Karrington. Works for me...
