I only watched highlights of this, but it was a pretty solid average show for me. A handful of matches were good, and the main event was good, but I think the wrong person won. Though I may say that since I can't stand Sami.

Okay...so...I'm only doing notes for one match...and I will share my "thoughts"
one other...

~ So this event looks so low budget...AEW already looks better than Impact...
~ The commentators sound awkward as hell...
~ The entrance ramp connected to the ring apron always looks weird to me...
~ The hard camera facing the entrance stage & screen looks terrible...

+ Taya vs. Rosemary vs. Havoc vs. Su Yung in a Monster's Ball Match +
~ So I don't "get" Taya or Su Yung...both have talent but I just don't "get" them...
~ I've never seen Havoc wrestle before...
~ Rosemary...my Hive Queen! I love you! God I wish she was in AEW...
~ Taya looks so visually out of place in this match...
~ The face stapling is pretty brutal...but also kind of funny...
~ So Havoc (I'm just going to all her that) is a "larger" woman but she can
actually move around the ring & has real ring presence...take note Nia Jax...
~ Who is Jim Mitchell? I don't know who he is...
~ Rosemary has worn sexier outfits...
~ So Su Yung "ties" herself to Rosemary? Okay...I mean I would do that...but
for completely different reasons...
~ Taya has a ladder!
~ Taya is more annoying than Natalya with her constant yelling & screaming...
although she's not as bad as Carmella...NO ONE is as bad as Carmella.
~ Tree of Woe...
~ Wow...that "Top rope suplex on to the ladder spot" was cool...
~ Rosemary hits the sexiest spear ever! (Don't tell Charlotte I said that...)
~ Thumbtacks!
~ And that "face stomp" wasn't really into the tacks...but it still looked rough...
~ Su Yung with the Mist!
~ When did they set that table up? I must have missed that...
~ And Taya & Rosemary go through the table!
~ Top rope Tombstone! Jesus! Careful ladies!
~ And Taya retains in a fun, stupid & violent match...
~ When is Rosemary getting the Knockouts title back?

Now...I have some thoughts on the "main event" & my thoughts are as follows:

1). Tessa Blanchard is HOT! Gold looks really good on her...& I want to see her
fight Charlotte so bad its makes my balls ache...

&

2). I personally cannot stomach Man on Woman violence...so I didn't watch the
match (I watched Tessa's entrance) although I know who won because I skipped
to the end of the match.

I think its important to remember a woman can be tough & a "Bad Ass" but I don't
think they need to fight men to prove it. I don't want to see men beating on women...
even if its staged/fake.

I don't like seeing it in any form of entertainment & unless its a "joke/comedy"
match (Becky Lynch vs. James Ellworth being the perfect example of that) then
I'm not watching it.

I didn't watch any of the other matches so I'm not leaving a score...so I'm done.
