Trevor Lee vs. Biff Busick

Good, smart match led by Busick who made sure things remained tight and focused, he’s such a class, a throwback wrestler very cool to watch. I liked him the moment I saw him in CZW back in 2012/13, and I heard he had some great matches last year all over the indie scene, I’m so happy he gained more fans.

Timothy Thatcher vs. Ricochet

So, I don’t really like Thatcher and don’t think he’s this “technical” wizard messiah some people sell him as. Don’t get me wrong, he’s a solid wrestler, but there’s something about him that makes me dislike him, I dunno, it’s like he’s trying too hard to be this “old school master of the mat”, he moves awkwardly, there’s a certain “fakeness” surrounding him, he’s not good in drawing emotions, etc. That being said, this was a good match, Thatcher’s mat wrestling taking on Ricochet’s aerial extravaganza, the story wrote itself and it was a fun watch.

Roderick Strong vs. Drew Galloway

Damn good out-of-control tussle that went all over and outside the building, they were chopping each other very hard, at moments it looked like a good old bar fight, neat stuff. They used a lot of chairs but once they brought them in the ring the ref lost the patience and called for a double DQ, which is a good finish because it advances the feud, and man, I hope someone somewhere books these two bruisers in a cage match, the dick Roddy against the big Drew sounds money inside a steel structure.

***3/4
