Match Thoughts
Good match. Alicia Fox did a good job of trying to steal the show, but everyone was entertaining in this one. I liked the back and forth, I liked Mahal being terrified of having to face Strowman, and I liked the action between Ember Moon and Alicia Fox.

Match Thoughts
This was super silly. It started with a chop competition that lasted for probably half of the match. They did start wrestling a bit after that, but it was still pretty goofy. It was entertaining though.

R-Truth won’t be in England next week because he can’t find his passport. Carmella isn’t surprised.
Show Impressions
Mixed Match Challenge is usually fun, and tonight was no different.
Match of the Night
Mahalicia vs Monster Eclipse
I enjoyed this one more probably because the other match tonight was even more goofy than usual.
