Mike Reviews WCW Halloween Havoc 1993

Happy Spooky Saturday Everyone!

We’re heading back to WCW 1993 today, following on from the below average Fall Brawl 1993, as we head into spook season with Halloween Havoc 1993!

The big match here features Cactus Jack finally getting a shot at revenge against Vader, after the monster sent him to Cleveland earlier in the year. Elsewhere we’ve got Rick Rude and Ric Flair going at it as The Richard Powers Explode, along with Sting trying to fend off the challenge of Sid Vicious.

You can view the full card for Halloween Havoc 1993 below;

WCW Halloween Havoc 1993 Card

Halloween Havoc 93 is emanating from New Orleans, Louisiana on the 24th of October 1993

Calling the action are Tony Schiavone and Jesse Ventura

We get one of the most infamous pay per view openings ever, as some kids head over to Tony Schiavone’s house whilst out Trick or Treating and he tries to scare them by running through the card. To be fair, nothing was scarier than a WCW pay per view line-up in 1993 sometimes. The kids are unimpressed with that though, so Tony instead turns into a big monster and supposedly kills the kids. Bloody hell, what an intro!

Opening Match
The Harlem Heat (Kane & Kole) and The Equaliser Vs Charlie Norris, The Ice Train and The Shockmaster

Harlem Heat would eventually get their names changed to Stevie Ray and Booker T respectively. I’ll probably just use those names here to make this easier. Equaliser would end up becoming Kevin Sullivan’s dyslexic brother, Evad. Norris is a Native American wrestler, Ice Train is a generic power guy who would eventually become the limo driver “Smooth” during the dying days of WCW, and Shockmaster used to be Tugboat/Typhoon in the WWF. Booker T is probably the only wrestler in this match that you could class as good, although Shockmaster is passable I suppose. Ice Train was very green at the time, but he had some charisma and stage presence at least.

This is your basic opener, with no one really trying anything more than simple punches, slams and clotheslines. That works well enough for the crowd however, as they like the babyfaces and don’t like the Heels, so whenever the Faces are getting the better of things the crowd is reasonably happy. The in-ring action is kept simple enough that it doesn’t really excite but it’s not especially bad either. The babyface trio get the better of things in the early going, with Booker taking most of the punishment during the shine. The big confrontation they are seemingly building to is Equaliser Vs Shockmaster, and the crowd does seem to enjoy that, although Shockmaster ends up dealing with Equaliser with reasonable ease.

A distraction from Booker and Stevie allows Equaliser to cut Norris off, and that gives us our heat segment. Norris sells that well enough and the Heel trio keep it simple with their work, with Booker occasionally adding in something a bit flashier like a spinning Scissor Kick at points. The crowd is invested for the most part, and enjoy it when Shockmaster gets the hot tag and runs wild. The finish looks a bit iffy though sadly, as Shockmaster catches Booker with a Bear Hug Slam move, but he doesn’t quite get the execution right and the move looks a little sloppy as a result.

WINNERS: TEAM SHOCKMASTER
RATING: *1/2

Thoughts: This wasn’t really pay per view calibre action, but it was fine enough as an opening match for the live crowd. Had the finisher been executed properly, I might have gone as high as **. No one did anything they couldn’t really do, and the match followed the tag formula well enough, so it was passable six man action. If you got this to open an House Show or on the undercard of a WCW Worldwide taping, then you’d probably be okay with it, but you expect a bit more from a pay per view offering

Equaliser and Shockmaster brawl during that, as WCW teases threatens us with that match down the line

Eric Bischoff is interviewing Terrence Taylor, who will be a referee in the match between Rick Rude and Ric Flair later on. Taylor says he wanted the gig tonight so that he had a chance to prove that he could be a fair ref after previously being a naughty villain. Taylor came across as really insincere here, but I’m not sure if we were supposed to think that or not.

Match Two
“Mr. Wonderful” Paul Orndorff w/ The Masked Assassin Vs Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat

Orndorff is supposedly subbing in for Yoshi Kwan here, although these two combatants had faced one another for the TV Title earlier in the year. Orndorff jump starts things at the beginning of the bout and works Steamer over with things like punches, kicks and clotheslines. Steamboat of course sells all of that really well, and even takes a bodyslam out onto the rampway that is leading up to the ring tonight. However, Orndorff stops to jaw with the ref following that, which gives Steamboat and opportunity to leap from the rampway into the ring, but Orndorff is able to dodge it and continues to control things. I wonder why they’ve decided to give Steamboat so little in this opening section of the match? He hasn’t had much chance to shine at all and it’s flattened out the crowd considerably.

Steamboat does eventually manage to get himself into the match by working over Orndorff’s arm with holds and arm drags, but the crowd kind of doesn’t care about seeing holds after the match started quickly and involved Steamboat getting clobbered so much. What an oddly structured match this is. Starting the bout hot is normally something the babyface does, with the Heel then slowing things down in order to rile up the crowd, but they’ve done the exact opposite here and I’m not sure the crowd quite knows how to react to it all. Steamboat starts flinging Orndorff’s shoulder into the ring post following that, as it’s almost as if Steamboat is the Heel tonight. Steamboat even starts doing some joint manipulation at one stage, as The Dragon has been very violent and unpleasant this evening. Were they teasing a Heel turn here or something and that’s why the match is like this?

Orndorff’s selling is really going during the heat, which this basically is, with him trying to protect the injured arm and covering up in the corner at one stage in an effort to salvage his ravaged body from a further onslaught. The crowd still doesn’t know what to make of all this, especially when Orndorff essentially starts making a babyface comeback by peppering Steamboat with punches and then pumping his fist to the crowd. What bizarre match am I watching here?! Orndorff flings Steamboat into the front row and then back into the ring, where the Wonderful one comes off the top with a flying elbow to a standing Steamboat for two. Both wrestlers go for a cross body at the same time, and that’s the double down. Orndorff tries a rope assisted pin following that, as apparently he’s a Heel again now, but referee Nick Patrick puts a stop to that and Steamboat flings Orndorff to the ramp, where The Dragon follows with a big chop off the top rope.

We get some near falls back inside the ring following that, with Steamboat finally wrestling like a babyface again, as things pick up a bit as a result. Steamboat comes off the ropes with a cross body, but Assassin is distracting Patrick (his son in real life) and that means that Orndorff is able to survive. Steamboat takes a spill to the floor following that, which allows Assassin to load up his mask and clobber Steamboat with a head butt whilst the referee is distracted by Orndorff. Steamboat can’t make it back into the ring, and that leads to Orndorff picking up the count out victory. Normally I’d complain about a lame finish like that, but it helped make Assassin look like an effective manager and it seemed to draw the right kind of heat from the crowd, so I’ll accept it. I don’t see why Orndorff couldn’t have got a tainted pin fall win following that though. It’s not like Steamboat would be hurt by getting pinned after being clocked illegally by the opponents manager.

WINNER BY COUNT OUT: PAUL ORNDORFF
RATING: ***

Thoughts: This was a really weird match to watch, as Steamboat essentially got the heat on Orndorff and then Orndorff kind of made the comeback. The crowd seemed to think it was weird as well, and they never really got into the match as a result, even though the quality of the actual wrestling on display was good. The finishing stretch with the near falls was done well at least, with both wrestlers shifting back to their natural roles and the crowd getting more into the contest as a result. That strong finishing stretch somewhat rescued the match for me really, hence the rating, but goodness me was the first 75% or so of the match really odd to watch

The announce team say that the Big Gold Belt will now be known as the International Heavyweight Title going forwards, and that’s how it will be announced as later on tonight.

Match Three
WCW World Television Title
Champion: Lord Steven Regal w/ Sir William Vs Davey Boy Smith

It’s a real Battle of Britain here, as Blackpool takes on Leeds. The storyline is that His Lordship is landed gentry, whilst Davey is just a commoner, so the Champ is offended that he has to sully himself fighting such a low class opponent. We sadly take that whole class system thing quite seriously over here, much to our detriment. On the bright side, no one deep fries stuff better than us Brits, so it’s peaks and valleys when it comes to our society and culture I guess. Davey gets a chance to show off his sometimes slept on technical skills here, as he holds his own just fine with His Lordship on the mat in the early going. It’s fun technical grappling actually, with Davey mostly getting the better of things in order to allow the Champ to get all frustrated and flustered that the big working class Yorkshireman is getting the better of him.

Sir William eventually distracts Davey though, which allows His Lordship to start throwing strikes, which essentially means that the Heel has conceded the wrestling contest to the babyface and subtly gets a message across to the fans that Davey is the better wrestler of the two in a fair fight. Davey sells well during the heat, whilst His Lordship’s strikes look good, as do the holds that the Champ applies as the heat goes on. The crowd doesn’t make a tonne of noise, but they’re not dead for this either. Davey keeps trying to power out of the Champ’s holds in order to make a comeback, but Lord Steven always manages to tie Davey back up in another hold before that can happen. The crowd is into the idea of Davey fighting back, and react whenever it looks like Davey is going to be able to pull off an impressive feat of strength and get back into the match.

What the match is really lacking is a prolonged period in the closing stages where Davey flings His Lordship around and keeps making quick pin fall attempts. That would have been an exciting way to close things, with Lord Steven making multiple kick outs before the clock runs down. Instead though Davey really only goes for one pin fall attempt, which comes as a result of the Running Powerslam, and the Champ manages to kick out of that with 20 seconds left. I wonder if originally that was supposed to happen later, with Davey hitting the move but the time running out before the referee could count three? Anyway, the Champ does kick out, so Davey follows up with a Piledriver, but the time runs out before Davey can even really make a pin attempt and the match ends as a draw.

TIME LIMIT DRAW (REGAL RETAINS)
RATING: **1/2

Thoughts: The biggest critique you could give this one is that it felt quite obvious early on that they were going for a draw and you never really felt like we’d get a finish. The wrestling itself was solid, with both combatants playing their respective roles well. The technical exchanges in the early parts of the match were especially well done

Eric Bischoff is up on the stage by the Deal Wheel, which brings out Vader and Harley Race. Vader spins the wheel, which has a selection of violent stipulation matches on it, and it ends up landing on Texas Death Match, so that will be our Main Event later on. At least it wasn’t Coal Miner’s Glove this time.

Match Four
WCW United States Title
Champ: “The Natural” Dustin Rhodes Vs “Stunning” Steve Austin

Rhodes had finally defeated Rick Rude in their long running feud to win the Title, with the newly single Austin being his next feud following the collapse of The Hollywood Blondes tag team. This one is back and forth in the early going, with the idea being that they want to re-establish Austin as a singles threat again after spending the majority of the previous year mostly working tag team matches. The wrestling is mechanically good, although there’s not a lot of crowd heat for it. Dustin has a bit of a harder edge somewhat, with him being quick to throw punches and clotheslines as opposed to just focusing on holds in a traditional babyface fashion. Austin ends up taking a spill to the floor and looks to have injured his knee, with Dustin then targeting the knee back inside the ring. Austin goes to the eyes in order to prevent that, and then he kicks Dustin very lowly in the mid-section, which looks to be our cut off.

Dustin’s selling during the heat segment is done well, with Austin looking good on offence as he continues to re-establish himself as singles competitor again. Austin would actually get a really solid push for about a year and was well on the way to fighting for the World Title as WCW entered the autumn of 1994, but then he got Hacksawed and that was that. Dustin makes sporadic attempts to fight back, but Austin always has an answer for it, as Austin has either always been in control or going back and forth with Dustin in this one. The only period where Dustin seemingly had any control was during the brief period where Austin was selling the knee. Dustin does eventually start making a brief comeback, but Austin has an answer for THAT as well and seemingly gets a rope assisted pin for three. However, referee Nick Patrick supposedly saw the cheating just in time, so the match continues. Austin is too distracted thinking that he’s won though, and that allows Dustin to get a roll-up for three.

WINNER AND STILL CHAMPION: DUSTIN RHODES
RATING: **1/4

Thoughts: That’s why you should always keep your eyes on the prize there Stunning Steve! The match itself was okay, if a bit dull. The point of the bout was to establish that Austin was still a good enough singles wrestler that he could go for a major belt and hold his own, which they ultimately succeeded in doing thanks to Austin taking so much of the contest and seemingly winning until the referee noticed the cheating. This would have probably worked better on TV rather than on a pay per view like Halloween Havoc, but all of the wrestling was to a decent standard and the story was told successfully, so it wasn’t bad, but I wasn’t especially entertained much by it either. Austin allowing himself to let his concentration slip was a good excuse for him to seek out a manager who could help keep him focused too, so this match did some decent world building even if it wasn’t an especially good match in an isolated vacuum

Austin lays out Dustin with the belt post-match, so this feud will continue. Dustin actually does a “technically not allowed” blade job for that, so the camera cuts away pretty quickly.

BattleBowl is coming, and I’ll have to suffer and review it methinks.

Match Five
WCW World Tag Team Titles
Champs: 2 Cold Scorpio and Marcus Alexander Bagwell w/ Teddy Long Vs The Nasty Boys (Knobbs & Sags) w/ “The Walking Riot” Missy Hyatt

Scorp and Bagwell had upset The Nasty’s the previous day to Halloween Havoc on Saturday Night, so The Nasty’s are looking to claim their belts back here. Hyatt debuts the short hair look here, and it’s working for her the same way it works for Courtney Miller, which is very well indeed. The Champs clear the ring of The Nasty’s to start, and Bagwell even forces a smooch on Hyatt, which is a babyface move because 1993. The Champs shine on the challengers following that, with The Nasty’s taking some nice bumps for it all. Both challengers actually get clotheslined over the top rope at one stage, but it’s not a DQ, which continues WCW’s inconsistent enforcement of the over the top rope rule. Things do get a bit sloppy at points, with Scorp slipping on a cross body attempt off the ropes at one stage, but he’s just about able to correct it.

The shine actually goes on for quite a while, but Bagwell ends up trapped in the Heel corner and dropped over the top rope to the outside, which the referee misses. It’s time for the heat segment following that, with Hyatt getting a slap in on Bagwell as revenge for the earlier kiss. Honestly, that’s fair. It was one heck of a slaparoonie too! Bagwell sells well during the heat, likely because The Nasty’s are just battering him for real so he doesn’t have much choice in the matter. After a couple of teases and false tags, we finally get the hot tag to Scorp, and he runs wild on the Champs whilst looking good. Things break down following that, with all four wrestlers, and even the managers, scrapping with one another. Scorp comes off the top with a 450 Splash onto Knobbs, but Sags clatters Scorp with his boot when the ref isn’t looking, and that’s enough for a cheap Nasty’s win.

WINNERS AND NEW CHAMPIONS: THE NASTY BOYS
RATING: **1/4

Thoughts: I really don’t get why they’d give The Nasty Boys 15 minutes or longer for their matches in this era. They’re a decent brawling team who can work tag formula, but there’s no reason why they needed to be going longer than 10 minutes post-1991. As a result the match felt like it dragged after a certain point because there was roughly 5 extra minutes of running time that the bout didn’t need, but it wasn’t terrible and the finishing stretch was entertaining tomfoolery

Eric Bischoff is backstage with Sid Vicious and Colonel Parker. Sid does his usual quiet-then-yelling promo and it’s every Sid promo you’ve ever heard, so if you like those then you will probably like this.

Match Six
Sid Vicious w/ Colonel Robert Parker Vs The Man Called Sting

Sid and Sting had been feuding since the summer, with this due to be the addendum for now. Sting gets probably the loudest reaction of the night thus far, possibly augmented by the fact he used to wrestle for Mid-South and the local fans remember him? Sid is his usual awful self here, with all of his offence looking like muck and his goofy selling on full display. I will credit Sid for taking some very nice bumps at least, but then he usually pops right back up following it , so it’s as if none of the bumps he’s taking actually hurt, which takes away from their effectiveness somewhat. Sting does get to batter Sid from pillar to post in the early, with them even doing some rarely-seen-in-WCW crowd brawling too. This match has at least felt like it’s being fought between two people who really don’t like one another, which is what you’d want after these two had been feuding for as long as they had.

Parker eventually distracts Sting, and that allows Sid to cut off Sting and work some heat. Sting sells that well and the crowd stays with him, with Sid doing his best to draw heat from the crowd. Parker gets involved at points when the referee isn’t looking, as everyone in this match has played their roles well thus far. The only downside has been Sid’s offence, which has looked pretty rocky at the best of times. At one stage Sid gives Sting a side slam, but they’re so close to the ropes that Sting nearly lands on the bottom rope instead of taking a flat bump. Thankfully they are just far away enough that Sting is able to land properly, but that could have been ugly. Hey Sid, look to deliver your moves closer to the middle mate. The fight heads outside at one stage, with Parker distracting the ref so that Sid can hit Sting in the back with a chair. Thankfully Sid at least manages to perform that successfully without accidentally blasting Sting in the back of the head somehow.

There are actually some fans cheering on Sid here, as his continued popularity amongst wrestling fans never fails to baffle me. At least other guys who predominantly got over due to their size and charisma, like Hulk Hogan, could do the basics properly. Sting eventually fights out of some rest holds and makes the comeback, as the crowd loves it. The crowd reactions have been great here, and Sting has done a reasonable job in the match itself. Sid continues to just go from spot to spot like a badly programmed robot, such as when he takes a bump from the comeback but then just gets up like someone who forgot he left the oven on because it’s the time in the match that requires him to be standing because he has to clock Sting whilst Sting is going at it with Parker. Parker and Sting clearly wanted to milk that a bit more as well, but Sid doesn’t understand how wrestling works, so they couldn’t. Eventually Parker and Sid have a miscommunication, and that allows Sting to get a roll-up for the popular win.

WINNER: STING
RATING: **

Thoughts: Not a good match technically or mechanically due to Sid being in it, but the crowd reactions made up for it somewhat and Sting was actually doing good work in there for the most part. The finish was a way for Sting to win whilst protecting Sid and setting him up for a babyface turn, as the plan at the time was to run Vader Vs Sid at Starrcade (it didn’t end up working out that way)

Sid walks out on Parker following that.

The competitors in the Main Event are getting ready.

Semi-Main
Guest Reference: Terrence Taylor
WCW International World Heavyweight Title
Champ: “Ravishing” Rick Rude Vs “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair w/ Fifi The Maid

Rude had defeated Flair for the belt (the renamed NWA Title now that WCW couldn’t use the NWA name anymore) back at Fall Brawl, so Flair is coming to try and win it back tonight. There was also an additional backstory of Rude trying to steal Fifi away from The Nature Boy. Speaking of Fifi; Rude tries to put the moves on her early doors, which leads to Flair attacking a distracted Rude and then working him over for the shine. Rude tries to fight back with a knee drop off the top, but Flair dodges that and goes straight to the Figure Four, which Rude sells really well and the crowd pops big for. Rude eventually makes the ropes in order to break the hold, but Flair keeps attacking the legs in classic Flair style, as the crowd “woooos” along with it all. Both wrestlers end up taking a spill to the floor following a cross body attempt from Flair, as this one has had decent intensity and they’ve done a solid job of telling the story of Flair being mad at Rude and trying to dish out some vengeance. Flair even comes off the top rope to the floor with a chop at one stage, which isn’t a move you see from him that often.

Flair tries it again, but Rude sees it coming and manages to catch Flair on the way down this time. Rude tries to chair Flair following that, but Taylor takes the chair away and Ventura loses it on commentary at what he thinks is bias. Rude compensates by flinging Flair face first into the metal railings around ringside instead, and that appears to be our cut off. Flair sells well back inside the ring, whilst Rude looks decent on offence and continues to sell the knee from earlier in a nice touch. Rude mostly sticks to strikes and rest holds during the heat, which dampens down the crowd a bit, but Flair’s selling and bumping mostly keeps it interesting and they’re not going as long as Fall Brawl, so the match doesn’t feel quite as draggy as that one was. Flair ends up managing to catch Rude with one of Rude’s own finishing moves in the form of the Rude Awakening neck breaker, which leads to Flair making a comeback and getting some near falls.

The in-ring referee ends up getting crushed in the corner, which leads to Taylor heading into the ring to referee, only for him to get bumped as well. Rude tries to use an international object on Flair, but Flair fends that off and goes for the object himself. However, a stage hand who hasn’t been clued in tries to remove the object, and he has to be told to put it back in the ring so that Flair can use it! Oh WCW…

Anyway, Flair hits Rude with the object, but one of the referees saw Flair hit Rude, so Flair ends up getting disqualified. The crowd are furious about that, although technically it is the right call. Rude tries to kidnap Fifi following that, but Flair comes to the rescue and beats up Rude a bit more until the referees stop him. This allows Rude to flee and I guess set up more matches so long as a certain Mr. Eudy doesn’t decide to find his scissors…

WINNER BY DQ: RICK RUDE
RATING: **3/4

Thoughts: I generally preferred this to the Fall Brawl match as they went for 20 minutes instead of 30 and just worked it at a quicker clip, so it flowed better and wasn’t as much of a slog as the previous bout was. I’m still not really convinced that these two have much in the way of chemistry together as opponents, but this was a solid match for the most part. There might have been plans for a climactic stipulation match between the two down the line, hence the finish we got here, but when Sid Vicious got fired they needed a new opponent for Vader at Starrcade, and Flair ended up getting parachuted in to fix things, meaning that Rude needed to do something else

The announce team runs through the rules for a Texas Death Match

• No DQ’S
• Falls Count Anywhere
• Once you get a pin/submission the wrestler gets thirty seconds to rest and then they have to answer a ten count

Well that sounds suitably brutal, let’s get our brawl on!

Main Event
Spin The Wheel, Make A Deal
Non Title Texas Death Match
WCW World Champ: Big Van Vader w/ Harley Race Vs Cactus Jack

The story here was that Vader gave Cactus a Powerbomb on the concrete floor, which led to Cactus doing a big injury angle for it. However, WCW decided to ruin things by making Cactus film a bunch of silly comedy segments where he had amnesia and got lost in Cleveland, which dulled the effect of the injury angle somewhat. Cactus has now spun all that as mind games though, and we are finally here for the climactic bout at Halloween Havoc. As mentioned earlier in the review; Vader has spun the Deal Wheel earlier on, and now we’ve got a Texas Death Match. They make no pretence at this being a technical wrestling match to start, as they quickly start brawling on the entrance ramp and things take it from there. Vader is game to take some bumps tonight, and even takes a suplex from the ring onto the rampway at one stage.

Cactus is soon bleeding from the eye, but he keeps fighting and soon both combatants are brawling over by the entrance area, where Cactus knocks Vader down some stairs where a Vader headstone just happens to be, which leads to the great visual of Vader climbing out of the “grave” with blood on his face. Cactus actually gets a pin following that, but Vader gets up pretty quickly, which leads to Cactus hitting Vader with a prop cactus before following with a flying elbow off the stage onto Vader on the concrete floor. Cactus gets the pin following that, but Vader is already getting up following the rest period. Honestly, I think this match would be better if they got rid of the 30 second rest period and just went straight to the 10 count following the pin. The rest period just halts the momentum and isn’t really adding anything.

Aside from that though, the action here is really good, as both wrestlers successfully get across the idea that this is a hate filled brawl, with both combatants happy to take big bumps in order to make the other look good. Vader successfully manages to come off the top with the Moonsault at one stage, and that not surprisingly nets him a three count, but Cactus is able to beat the ten count and get back up to his feet, however he’s in really rough shape following it. We get a very memorable spot when the two brawl out to the ramp again, where Cactus gets a sleeper on Vader and Vader goes route one with the counter by just falling back and landing on top of Cactus in gruesome fashion.

Mick Foley was actually so miserable in WCW at the time that he was almost hoping that such a big bump would outright end his career, but his body was so used to taking punishment by this stage in his career that he was able to survive it. Vader manages to get the pin following that, but Cactus gets up and DDT’s Vader onto a chair before the 30 second rest period ends. However, because Cactus was down again before the 30 second ended, he’s now able to be counted out by the referee, which doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. I mean, he got up to his feet and hit a move, why wouldn’t that restart things? Anyway, Cactus looks like he’s going to beat the 10 count, but Race jabs him with a tazer and that means that Cactus doesn’t get up in time, so Vader wins.

WINNER: VADER
RATING: ****

Thoughts: That finish would have made a lot more sense if this had been a standard Last Man Standing match and not a Texas Death Match, as both guys could have then been counted out in a dramatic race in order to see who could get up first. As it was, Cactus was the only wrestler in contention for being counted out there, which hampered the drama somewhat. It also really didn’t make sense that Cactus essentially beat the count before the 30 second rest period ended, but because he hit a move he was still eligible for being counted down. Those niggles aside, this was a fantastic brawl, that delivered on the grudge match aspect and gave Vader a way of winning without making Cactus look weak, as it took help from Race in order to finally keep Cactus down. An excellent way to close out the event

Cactus gives Race a DDT following the match in order to get his heat back.

In Conclusion

Halloween Havoc 1993 was an easy enough watch, with nothing really being bad on the undercard and a strong Main Event to close things out. It’s not a show you desperately need to go out of your way to see, but if you do then you’ll probably enjoy it just fine

Mildly recommended show
