7.1
The final score: review Good
The 411
We finally got to watch the Hardy Compound segments tonight. Mike Santana and Zachary Wentz had a great match to start the show. Mike Santana is really getting to shine in this run as a singles wrestler and Tom Hannifan brought up him increasing his muscle mass to become a heavyweight. Tasha Steelz and Dani Luna got a good amount of time to show what they can do and they made good use of it. The Hardy Compound segment was entertaining. To Matt's credit and I'm sure a lot of others too, he still finds a way to keep it interesting. We saw Rosemary watching Ash by Elegance from the balconies so that confirms she's returning as a singles wrestler. I'm looking forward to seeing her move away from being in a tag team or a stable and have the spotlight on her again. I hadn't seen a lot of Ryan Nemeth before this but he's pretty good and probably underutilized at his former place of work. Nic and Ryan worked really well here and maybe a little run in the tag division some time won't be so bad as it would provide it with some much-needed star power.
