Well? What did you all think? Should we do something like this every once in a while? How was the show? Show us some love and earn some points.
Also... Congrats to Grimm for getting the 20 point boot prize.

This show was a masterpiece of continuity. I like how the writer of my match picked up on cues in the segments I wrote and furthered Kyle's injuries. It came off really well. Congratulations to everyone who got into the fatal fourway. It was great. I'm mad at myself for putting a lot more thought into Sicko this week, but what can you do man.
Best match was the opening one.
Best segment was the arrival of Dominator. I'm really excited for where he goes from here. It's about to get fun.
The Lunatic commentary during my tag match had me laughing.
My only complaint is that, after Kyle came out there and bragged and even boldly said he didn't care who he had to go through tonight, even if it was for his Underground title, the authority figure came out there and declared he would have to defend his title anyway. Just seemed superfluous. But I'm burned out on authority figures anyway, it may be a necessary plot device at times but the Authority having been ongoing since 2013 has just ran it straight into the damn ground.
Awesome work for a light week. Great job guys.

The show was, as always, excellent and gave the start of some interesting possible storylines going forward from here which I'll look forward to seeing how they progress.
What I really want to talk about is the format itself. Nice and unique (at least to PCW's history) it was a really fun way to do a show from the start to the finish. I know that it was done this way to cover both absences in the roster and the match writing team, but I cant help but wonder what a "full" show done this way would be like, with singles and triple threat matches thrown in as well as a tag match or two, with all the winners progressing to the end elimination match.
One other thing I wonder about is the drawing of the match ups themselves. Sure, I know it had to be done then because the staff needs to know who they're writing for which matches, and doing a video drawing shows to the roster that the pairings are fair and were not put together to push forward feuds and storylines (although I don't see that being a problem). but my main question becomes did we, the audience, need to know these match-ups before the show itself "aired" - logistics aside, could something not have been pre-recorded so the staff know what the matches are, but the rest of us wouldn't know until the opening of the show itself? There seems to be no reason why we need to know the matches ahead of time, since the rping would be finished by the point of the drawing.
Of course this assumes that the format will be used again at some point in the future. Which would be cool, and I think this should be thought out a bit more and seeing if it yields better results, or if this is literally going to be the "well, lots of people are going to be away this cycle, lets do a battle brawl to cover it" plan.

Yeah, I liked this show.
Dominator's arrival, even though I expected it, was still a mark out moment.
The matches were well written and I really enjoyed the build of the show. Congrats to Grimm who earned his win.
My heart got hurt a tiny bit based on Grimm's internal editorial comments in his segments about Alyce...but if it didn't hurt a bit neither one of us would play our characters correctly.
