Not a strong card IMO. Too many gimmick matches. Tag titles and Womens Title really only ones interesting to me.

No Trios titles, no Acclaimed, no JAS, no Hobbs.

I’m fine with it, there’s 9 matches on the card, we don’t need 13-14. Let feuds build more before throwing them out there.
House of Black vs Acclaimed & Daddy Ass will happen, just a matter of when.
JAS will be involved in the Jericho match
I like that Hobbs isn’t just a guy in the battle royal, maybe that leads to something?
Only thing I don’t like is Jay White in the battle royal. I know they’re continuing the Starks feud, but Switchblade needs to be much higher up than that.

It was more questioning why Hardy's over some of those others and also why not through them in the Royale instead of Lee Moriarity, and the rest of those jabronis. You have big stars sitting sideline to guys lucky to even have a payday.

Hardys should honestly be a preshow match.
I don't want important guys in a battle royal for a chance to lose to Orange Cassidy.

On one hand, it does make the battle royal look more star studded and not just job guys (like most of the tag battle royal was earlier this month).
I expect feuds like Starks/BC and Lee/Dustin/Swerve to continue through this and have pay offs on TV following the PPV.
As for Hardy’s/Egon, I really hope this feud ends soon, but sadly I don’t think it will. Everyone involved needs to just move on, this has been going on forever. I wish Stokely was involved with Hobbs or even Bullet Club. He needs to be managing a far better group.

There better be vignettes of Egon at the Hardy compound like Precious with Jimmy Garvin.
Well, maybe not exactly like that, but you know wat I mean...

Trios Title Open House rules match added to the show
Safe to assume The Acclaimed and Daddy Ass will be accepting

jackref has the book in Jacksonville. I'm sure there's still more than one. But it won't be long if we keep it up.

random(one) thoughts:
I still think MJF wins, royally somehow screwing Darby over in the process, which leads to my Sting/MJF @ Wembley scenario. In fact, the more I think about it, Sting should win at Wembley. Let him run with it until Full Gear or next year's Revolution, and then Darby should be the one to retire Sting. Like in an HBK/Flair kinda way. I'd want them to both be faces going into that match.

There is no way Sting should be main eventing a major PPV, much less be the champ.

I think Lethal/Jarrett should probably win. That group is very entertaining although it may have jumped the shark by adding Karen. That wasn't necessary. I realize FTR have barely held the belts for very long but I also seem to recall Lethal/Jarrett always coming up short over the past however many months and if you don't have them win this time around, their relevancy may be no longer.

Thinking Toni Storm and her ridiculous hair might win this one. Especially if the Hayter injury stuff is true.

Not sure Max should be the one to retire Sting though.

The other thing with taking the belts off FTR is that it could allow them to focus on a program between The Elite & Punk/FTR ending up at Wembley. But apparently everyone is too big of babies to allow that possibility.

Everything about the Hardy stuff has absolutely sucked other than Stokely. Get Hook & Ego far, far away from them. And what in the blue hell is happening to Private Party? I might even purposely wait to order this PPV until AFTER I know this match has concluded.

Unlike so many others, I've found the mic work of Jungle Jack, Darby & Sammy to be perfectly acceptable.

Whatever the Wardlow aura was, hasn't been the same since exactly this time last year when MJF was having his real life tantrum. I imagine he retains though. (Although it would be INCREDIBLE to hear Christian ripping on 70,000 in Wembley)

I'd like to see Blackpool win so that we can get them vs House of Black at Wembley. Also frees up The Elite vs Punk/FTR, Hangman can face Taking a shit and Yuta go have a match in ROH or something.

Seems to me the Blackjack should come down to Orange, Jay White, Ricky Starks & Swerve. (Keith Lee 5th)

Thank merciful fuck that there isn't an NBA game going up against the PPV tonight so Tony pads out the card and drags the night on so the main event starts once that game is over.

That could work, but yeah you should use that moment to make someone who isn't already a star. Could that give a boost to someone like Scorpio Sky? Maybe a newly heeled Jungle Man?
