Ill be putting up a review as I went to Smackdown and FD.
I missed World End as it wqs sold out so I cant make a comparison. I really liked the UBS arena. I got the tickets that let me in through their side entrance and didnt wait on line at all. It did keep me from the main areas so didnt see merch or food outside of the club area.
The pre show was pretty good. Willow is so beloved. TK better do well by her (she is over like Brisco. Just beloved).
People loved MJF. I love Hechicero. It was a good opener on emotion alone though was more an exhibition match.
Six Man Tag - Okada is class. Bowens is the one to watch in the acclaimed. max got an extended rap (hard to hear in the stadium). Poor Tanahashi. Can see its hard for him to get around but they hid it as well as possible. The match was a lot of disrespect from Okada towards Tanahashi. Like a personal beef). Oh great "promo" from the Elite before the match.
Brian vs Shingo.. just amazing.
Toni vs Mina. It took a bit but they got the crowd into it. Thankfully they didnt mix the story into the match. A three way kiss popped the crowd.
ZSJ vs Orange, the right person went over. Hopefully this leads to OC losing and changing up his character.
Six Man Tag, Jericho is halfway over. I do not care for the gimmic but he is connecting. His hand wave got a lot of response. People tried to get a Please Retire chant but there was pushback. Wild to see. Meat chants for Cobb and Joe. Right guy went over.
TNT ladder match. Fun. People love Brisco (hes a nut), Takeshita is also loved and Perry is over. I wish they just gave him the belt as this felt like a foregone conclusion but they made it work. With the response hopefully Takeshita gets it somewhere soon down the line.
TBS title match. People were into CEO when she came out but somewhere in the middle there was a double turn. The women really showed out.
Mox / Naito - Im personally done with Mox and with the response from the crowd it would be good for him to go away for a bit. Came up for the enterance but that was it. People enjoyed Naito but this could have been left off the card.
Main event. Pure electricity from Osprea coming out until the end. They might have missed the peak of the match with a few too many kickouts, but the story was told. The better man won. Even with a bit of "story" and a ref bump that didnt take away from what was important. The wrestling.
The crowd was great. I am so glad we didnt make noise just to make noise. You could tell when the crowd was admiring what was being seen. Different sections would do different cheers and sometimes they overran each other. Other times the match elicted a chant that would cut off whatever was started.
Really enjoyable show.
