Thoughts: This was a bit of a surprise. The match was fine with The Rascalz doing lots of flying as expected. It didn't quite get as much time as it should have to really play out.

The mom has powder thrown in her eyes and the dad gets hit. Malakai Jackson (he used to team with The Bucks but he retired) takes a spike piledriver. Ricochet nails Jack Perry on the ramp.
Thoughts: This was a pretty big angle here and we'll see if they follow up on it. This should mean war since The Bucks' family got attacked.
Overall thoughts: It was a heavy in-ring based show here with a lot of wrestling. They put out a better card than usual with some of the stars in action and everyone tried a bit harder. Some of the matches did run together though since we had a lot of tag matches with a lot of high flying. The angle to close the show was pretty big and we'll see if they follow up on it or not. I'd give the show a 6 out of 10 and thought it was alright.
