Gauntlet Series *3/4
Kings vs. Aries/Strong ***3/4
Mark vs. Shingo ***1/4
Jimmy Rave vs. Homicide ***1/2
Jay vs. Joe ***1/4
Davey and Delirious vs. Daniels and Sydal ****
I wrote a whole review, but it dissapeared. I'm pissed. Just know that Davey is an amazing seller and with proper buildup, could be a great champ in the UK if they stop booking him so strange, Nigel is awesome in the crowd, Brent vs. BJ was awful, and Rave vs. Homicide is one of the most underrated matches of the year.

Very good show. Not sure where all the Richards-Aries hype came from. Not to say it wasn't very good, but the arm work wasn't interesting enough to me to justify working the whole match around it, especially since Aries never sold it before the finish. Still good, but a fair dissapointment since every review I saw was over ****. And the main was crazy, but not long enough or inventive enough to overshadow the **** 10/7 contest. It just seemed like a less crazy version of that, I guess. Everything else was very good, with a great BJ-Jimmy brawl (though those will get old soon if they don't start doing different stuff), and a great Tag Title match, if not as good as the past nights. Two very good shows, however.
