End of Show

My Opinion: Opening contest was just a squash. The triple threat was rather short, but was pretty entertaining. Once the tag team match actually got going, it was pretty solid. Sabin/Dutt was another solid bout, which had a nice fast pace. The six man tag team match was another decent contest, had a few slow spots which hurt the match. The main event was a entertaining little hardcore brawl. Though, I do believe Sabu should have just came out at the beginning instead of later on. Still a fun bout. Everything other than the opening squash was entertaining.

Overall Grade: B
