Winners: Team CMLL
Rating: ***. Nice introduction here, as we got a chance to see each of the CMLL guys and a little bit of their offense, as well as their personality.
Final Thoughts: Pretty fun show tonight, especially if you like tag matches. Bill and Starks build momentum ahead of their defense next week against Sting and Darby. The fans got introduced to the talent from CMLL, and we built some matches for next week’s Rampage and Dynamite. Successful show in those aspects. 7/10.
