Winners: Private Party
Rating: **3/4. They did some really cool stuff in this match, but it just felt like cool stuff for the sake of cool stuff, to be honest. Private Party getting a win ahead of their match with Big Bill and Chris Jericho, tomorrow, is good, however.

Winner: Willow Nightingale
Rating: ***1/2. The smart money was on Willow here the whole time, but Deeb looked great in a loss and there two had a heck of a main event. Really good stuff.
Final Thoughts: This was a weird one, because everything we got was good… we just needed more of it. We didn’t need five matches, as I would have loved to see another ten minutes out of Shingo and Danielson. That said, we had some stakes in the matches, and they all felt like they meant something. Strong wrestling in the main event, too. 8/10.
