NWA Powerrr 10/17/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/nwa-powerrr-10102026.html

Joe Galli, Danny Dealz and Tim Storm are on commentary.

Kyle Davis interviews Colby Corino in the ring. Kyle says he doesn't know why he's here. CC says all he has been thinking about is NWA 78, where Kerry Morton beat him. He says he won't make excuses and says he was beaten 1-2-3. He says he knows he's better than that. He says the result wouldn't be the same if they fought again. He says he needs one more match.

Kerry Morton comes out with an unknown girl. Kerry tells Kyle to get out of the ring. Kerry says CC is asking for sympathy and he thought his daddy taught him better than to do that. He says the girl with him is his personal ring announcer and she takes a while to introduce him. 

Kerry says he heard CC will do anything to have another match with him. Kerry says he talked to Billy Corgan and says CC can have another match with him. He says when he beats CC, CC has to admit he's the greatest wrestler that ever graced his presence. 

Kerry says his dad is with him all the time but he never sees Colby's dad. He asks if his dad even loves him. He says Colby will also have to admit that his dad doesn't love him when he loses. Colby says that will never happen and challenges Kerry to fight right now. Kerry escapes out of the ring. 

Sirena Veil and Paige Collett do a promo. SV says she knows she has a target on her back. She says she will accept Bobbi Thunder's challenge to the Bloodbath Invitational and will bleed her dry.

The King's Court talk. Trevor Murdoch says he could handle the match tonight but has accepted a tag match instead for Knox and Franks. He says he looks forward to it.

NWA Women's Television Title - Sirena Veil (c) vs Bobbi Thunder

SV has Paige Collett with her.

They lock up. SV goes for a blade runner but BT escapes. BT throws her over and BT rolls her up. SV misses a corner charge and BT bangs her head off the buckles. BT rolls and russian legsweeps her for 2.

SV backdrops her. SV hits a blade runner and pins her.

Thoughts: It was beginner level wrestling work wise but it was a decent showing for both girls. No one botched anything and it's a definite improvement over SV's other appearances. Bobbi has personality and if he she can ever pull it together in-ring, she will get somewhere.

Big Ty does a promo. He says when he pulls up on your block, you need to pay attention. He says he's watching and says when you turn around, he will be there. He says he will get you when he gets you and says to pay attention when it comes to Big Ty.

Tony hits mounted punches on him. Alex handspring cutters him. Alex top rope splashes him and pins him.

Thoughts: It was average to acceptable. Alex took a neat looking back body drop bump into the buckles. Tony didn't get much in but the basics here. They didn't get all that much time for this one.

The Pope does a promo with The Light behind him. Pope pumps up his arms. He says him and Mims are like blood and has been through stuff. Pope says Mims is young and on the dumb side. Pump says they might tango, but they won't fight.

Bryan Idol talks to Thom Lattimer in the back. He says he was there to make the tag but missed it and it was too late. He says he was there for him and asks if Thom can just listen to reason. He says they both lost the match and he wasn't trying to make him look bad. He says they will talk when he is cooled off.

PB Smooth and Effy vs Axton Ray and Shawn Carlson

Pastor C-Lo is with PB Smooth. I think this is Shawn's NWA debut.

Effy and SC trade waistlocks. Effy hip attacks him and atomic drops him. Ax and PB get in. Ax chops him and PB no sells it. PB throws him in the corner and chops him. Ax limbos out of a lariat and is thrown down by the leg. Effy walks the top rope and diving lariats Ax.

Ax powerslams Effy for 2. SC side slams Effy then 2nd rope diving lariats him. Effy takes a double spinebuster but tags out. PB shoulders over his opponents. PB corner splashes SC. Ax jumps at PB and PB slams him. PB legdrops him. SC tries to break up the pin but splashes Ax. PB STO's SC down.

Big Ty comes out and takes out Pastor C-Lo. Ty facekicks PB and Ax rolls up PB. Ax pins PB.

Thoughts: Big upset here with Ax pinning PB. It was a bit of a mess and we had a lot of different things going on. I don't like PB taking the fall when Effy was here.

Keznie Paige does a promo. She says she has to be a fool to try to retain the tag titles with Kylie when Kylie screwed her out of the battle royal and hit her with a title belt. She says maybe she just got worked by Nattie. She says she's her big sister and will clean up her mess with big sisters do. She says they will retain the tag titles.

Brandon McCord goes up to BFT in the back. He says he knows they got a match with Jack n' Eddie but says they aren't a challenge for them. Brandon says he's got their back if they need something. He says he's got the guys. He says if anyone's got a better deal, they should consider The McCord Collection. Brandon says he can get them anything.

The Hardway come in. Dalton says they need to talk. Jack Vaughn says he will handle this and says they need to talk.

Gretta vs Ruby Red

This is Red's NWA debut. TV-MA is with Gretta.

Gretta piefaces her and headbutts her down. Gretta dumps her over the back from the bearhug position. Gretta then walks on her.

Gretta reverse bearhugs her and throws her down. Gretta chokeslams Red then pins her with a foot on the chest.

Thoughts: This was just a quick squash and not much else. Gretta dominated and Red got nothing in.

It's Me...The Carson Drake Experience

Chris Nowinski is Drake's guest. Chris wants to be called doctor and asks how he is post-concussion. Drake says he's fine and had to get sunglasses after suffering it. He says Chris understands what he's going through. Chris says he was accused of faking his concussion that ended his career. He says he has a help line now with his organization. Chris asks who Drake's doctor is but Drake seems nervous and doesn't provide any details. Chris says he was glad to see the match with Silas end. He says he's never seen anyone fake an injury and says you'd have to be a real jerk to fake a concussion. Drake looks uncomfortable and Chris says thank God he didn't do that.

Thoughts: The story has been that Drake faked his concussion and they pushed that further here.

The Pope vs Mims

Pope comes out alone.

Pope offers a handshake and they shake hands. They lock up and Mims backs him up in the corner. Pope wristlocks him and side headlocks him. Pope trips him and misses an elbow drop. Mims side headlock takeovers him. Mims then does it again.

Pope headscissors him, they get up and Pope slaps him. Pope forces a break and eye pokes Mims. Mims shoulders Pope over twice. Mims corner splashes him then backsplashes him. Mims side slams him. 

Pope calls for timeout and The Light attack Mims from the behind. Mims wins via DQ.

Thoughts: It wasn't much. I'm not surprised. The NWA not only has a habit of doing this, but this started about 4 minutes before the show ended so something was up.

The Light beat up Mims after. Pope says he told The Light he'd beat up Mims himself. Pope then STO's Mims, solidifying that he has turned on him.

Overall thoughts: Veil/Thunder was a very basic match. Alex Misery beat Tony Leyenda in an average to acceptable match. We had a random tag with PB Smooth and Effy where PB ended up taking the pin. Gretta won a squash. The main event was short and totally nothing at all. It was the usual disappointing NWA show with random matches and lackluster wrestling. It wasn't good. I'd give this a 4 out of 10.

Ring of Honor on HonorClub 10/15/2026

Thoughts: QT really tried to be the face here but the crowd wasn't having any of that. This didn't really work...though what this was supposed to accomplish except for getting QT on this show is unknown. QT did work hard though.

ROH Women's Pure Title Match - Deonna Purrazzo (c) vs. Emi Sakura

Thoughts: DP won as expected. It really wasn't that good and they burned through the rope breaks real fast. It was hard to get excited about it. 

Evil Uno and Alex Reynolds do a promo. Alex says they are looking for a win after losing to The Lethal Twist. Alex says John Silver isn't here due to protests and they have to move on. Uno says it's time for them to go forward. Preston Vance walks in and says he's here to be their third guy if they need it. Uno votes for it and Alex agrees. Uno says that means Vance has been reinstated and The Dark Order is in full force again.

Mark Sterling does the intro for The Premier Athletes but The Athletes attack before he finishes.

Thoughts: Linton had a good showing here. She did all kinds of athletic moves here and looked like someone worth bringing back. Ath roughed her up as she usually does with her opponents. Commentary went a bit too far putting Ath over here. It was average.

Thoughts: Matt won in his return. He didn't fly that much here. What we got was acceptable but there was a styles clash here and we were only getting so much out of it. The pace could have been a little faster.

Isla Dawn does a promo on Mina Shirakawa. She calls Mina a little b!tch. She says everyone loves her and wants her, but she does not. She says she wants to use her to claim the top spot in the women's division. She says she can't tread water against her and says get ready to drown b!tch.

ROH World Television Title Match - Action Andretti (c) vs. ELP

I think ELP is done with NJPW as he hasn't been wrestling for them but is showing up here.

ELP cut throat spinning torture rack neckbreakers him for 2. ELP top rope splashes him and the time limit runs out.

Thoughts: It went to a 15 minute time limit draw here. It was longer than it needed to be. They couldn't really keep up the excitement between the bigger moves and it made it drag some. I think this would have been a lot better if it only went 10 minutes. I thought it was average.

ELP wants 5 more minutes then chants for one more match. ELP offers a handshake and AA gives him one. AA then hits him with the title and beats up on him. AA says, "one more match, in your dreams". Adam Priest then comes out and saves ELP. 

Overall thoughts: It was the usual ROH show but at least they kept it under 90 minutes. We had a couple champs in action and a competitive main. But we also had random bouts and wrestlers. There was nothing that great here. Maybe the semi-main was the best bout on this one, but it's almost a stretch to say that. I'd give this a 4 out of 10 overall. I thought it wasn't that good of a show. 

WWE Smackdown 10/16/2026

WWE Smackdown 10/16/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/wwe-smackdown-1092026.html

We are in Sacramento, CA. Vic Joseph and Corey Graves are on commentary.

We see various wrestlers arrive.

Trick says he's done talking and dares Sami to hit him. Gargano grabs the mic and tells Trick he's disrespecting the WWE champ and him and LeRae.

Gargano says they don't call him Johnny Entrance but Johnny Wrestling. Trick says how about he beats Gargano's @ss tonight. Sami tells Gargano he can take Trick and Gargano agrees.

Thoughts: Trick won as expected. JG got no reaction here at all. It was rough as most of Trick's offense is based around jumping and JG spent the whole match working his knee. Trick did try to sell it, but it wasn't going to work that well. It was average.

Nick Aldis tells Blake Monroe her interactions with Giulia are getting out of hand. He says they will fight in a street fight next week. Chelsea Green comes in.

Gunther goes into Nick Aldis' office and talks to Nick, but can't see him.

He says a lot of things changed but Cody whining in the ring stayed the same. Baron says some people don't have the killer instinct and some are born with it. He says he doesn't need friends and likes to hurt people but Cody is obsessed with being the good guy.

Cody runs up the buckles and hits a super cody cutter. Orton leaves the ring. Cody then punts Baron while Orton says Cody won't do it. Orton is surprised.

Overall thoughts: 4 of the 5 matches had non-clean pinfall finishes here though one of them ended that way due to injury. Trick/Gargano was average and Gargano got no reaction. Paige/Bella was average too. Priest/Truth ended early due to injury. Fenix/Saints had a bad finish but the match was acceptable. We barely got any of the main at all and it ended on a DQ as well. I thought this was below average overall with bad finishes, random last minute matches and and a very weak main event. I'd give this a 4 out of 10 and wouldn't recommend it.

TNA Impact 10/15/2026

TNA Impact 10/15/2026

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/tna-impact-1082026.html

We are in Dothan, AL. Tom Hannifan and Matt Rehwoldt are on commentary.

Jeff says he tried to make it a bra and panties match. Jeff says if either tries to lose, they will be stripped of the tag titles. Matt says The Righteous will fight Syx in a tables match.

They say Amazing Red is a gamechanger and ask him to come out. Red comes out. Matt says he accomplished something no one else did by getting into the Hall of Fame and winning the X-Division Title later.

Nic Nemeth vs. Ryan Nemeth

If either of them try to throw the match, they will be stripped of the tag titles.

They shake hands and struggle to lock up. Nic tells him something in his ear. Ryan does a weak shin kick and Nic sells it big. The ref stares at Ryan. Nic pretend to be out on the mat and Ryan goes to pin him. The Hardy's come out onto the stage. Matt says if they try this carny act, they will be stripped of the titles. He tells them to fight. Nic says they don't tell them what to do. Matt says they fight or lose the titles.

Ryan rolls up Nic for 1. They argue. Nic rolls him up for 2 and Ryan complains. Matt and the crowd tell them to fight. The Nemeth's poke each other and shove each other. Matt chants "boring". Ryan misses a charge and gets dropped with a superkick. Nic says, "look at what you made me do". Matt chants, "one more time".Nic then hits a fameasser and pins Ryan.

Thoughts: Eh, it wasn't much wrestling wise but the logic was right and it was entertaining.

Nic complains on the mic after and says he should have his rematch tonight. he says he will have his eyes on the ladder match tonight. He then helps up Ryan. 

The Hardy's talk to Expressions and AJ Francis in the back. Expressions wants AJ to get a TNA World Title shot. Matt says AJ wants a big match for a big man. Matt says AJ faces the GOAT's tonight.

Thoughts: It was very short and not that much of anything. They wasted little time here and everyone went through tables quick. It was a waste of these guys.

The Hardy's talk to Frankie Kazarian and Avery Styles in the back. Kaz says no one appreciates longeviity like him. Kaz says he hopes they have the tag titles when he cashes in his "Call Your Shot" trophy. Matt says he appreciates what Kaz is doing with Avery. Matt says if Kaz stays on the up and up, he won't need to call his shot as they will give them a title shot without it.

HH ends up fighting Apex 1v2. Zoey superkicks HH and HH is alley ooped into a kneelift. SB puts a choke on HH and HH is out. SB's team wins.

Thoughts: It was another shorter bout here. It made sense and was fine. The heels needed the win here a bit more with SB's team being new. The faces didn't get a ton in but it also meant no botches.

TNA World Heavyweight Title #1 Contendership Five Way Ladder Match - Elijah vs. Trey Miguel vs. Moose vs. Jason Hotch vs. Ricky Sosa

Eli climbs the ladder. Nic Nemeth comes out and pushes the ladder over. Nic superkicks Eli. Nic then climbs the ladder and goes for the contract. Trey stops him. Trey lightning spiral's Nic. Trey climbs the ladder and grabs the contract. Trey wins.

Thoughts: Trey winning was a big random upset here. Him vs Leon should be entertaining but it's not exactly a major money drawing match. The match was acceptable but they took it easy here. It was more of a house show style ladder match than them going for a classic. I was curious as to what would have happened if Nic grabbed the contract.

The Hardy's come out and congratulate Trey. Matt thanks everyone for being part of their 35th Anniversary and says thanks to TNA. Leon and Trey shake hands and Leon holds the title up at him.

Overall thoughts: It was kind of like a house show or something. Everyone took it real easy here and everything but the main was on the short side. Angles and storylines were also very brief here. It had a totally different feel to it than a normal Impact. I'm not sure what that was about.

The show was a fun little show though. We saw a bunch of matches we don't normally see and even though the matches were toned down, we got to see a tables match and a ladder match. Nic/Ryan was short but they had the right idea and it was entertaining. The tables match was kind of a waste. The Hardy's did what they were supposed to do in their match and Expressions was ineffective as expected. The women's trios match was fine. The main was alright but it was definitely a safer and limited ladder match. They did tie a couple of storylines in though which was good. 

I'd give the show a 6 out of 10. There was nothing must see but it was fun and something different. I thought it was easy to get through and enjoyable. This was fine as a one-off event.

EPW Wrestling Unleashed 10/10/2026 Episode #263

EPW Wrestling Unleashed 10/10/2026 Episode #263

Thoughts: It was acceptable. It was brawling heavy as expected. Mostly everything looked fine here though I think something got messed up on the spot where the ref went down. They didn't bleed or do any big spots, but it was safe and mostly clean.

Mike Anthony and Wonder Boy talk after their last man standing match. WB sits down, Mike sits down next to him and offers him chips. Mike says not much needs to be said but he thinks he's ready now. Mike points at WB's Crossroads Cup and say, "do the d@mn thing".

Hollywood Jimmy messes with the faces then EK sends Cain into the post. Marko cutters EO. AR tags in. He drops The Order and corner splashes EK. Marko topes 2 heels outside. Izzy pulls AR's throat down over the top rope and running lariats him. Cain then comes in and black hole slams Izzy.

Cain is double teamed then he black hole slams EO. EK fameassers Cain. Marko 2nd rope os cutters EK. Dorian Vain comes in the ring. He and AR fight and The Order should be DQ'd here.

Thoughts: It was alright enough though the finish was a bit lame. We didn't see a lot of Aaron Roberts in this. Marko's offense looked good as usual.

Everyone fights in the ring. Vain foot chokes AR. Xero runs down and top rope crossbodies 3 of the heels. AR running boots Vain out. The heels all go out and the two sides yell at each other to close the show.

Overall thoughts: The women's street fight was acceptable. Ty/Enrico was fine and Ty had a good showing. The main event was also fine but had a bit of a lame finish. I'd give this show a 6 out of 10 overall. The show was okay.

Juggalo Championship Wrestling 10/15/2026 JCW Lunacy Episode 103

Juggalo Championship Wrestling 10/15/2026 JCW Lunacy Episode 103

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/juggalo-championship-wrestling-1082026.html

Joe Dombrowski and Mark Roberts are on commentary. 

Caleb Konley complains to Violent J and says Mr. JCW is Kerry Morton under a mask. He says this is another Orange Phantom thing. J says this is serious as Mr. JCW is suing them. J says like it or not, it's not Kerry Morton but Mr. JCW. He says he's coming in, like it or not. Caleb says he doesn't believe him.

The Backseat Boyz come in and are complaining. J calls them crybabies and says they are here to beg for a match tonight. J says they are in luck as another team is asking for a match too. J says they won't know their opponents though until they come out. JP says it more f*ck sh*t. They say they will win and become 4x JCW Tag champs. 

The Boys leave and Malcolm Monroe III comes in and thanks J for the opportunity. J says we have two different opposites - a man with dignity and honor and a man with idiocy. J says Caleb was like him but because an idiot. He tells Malcolm to stay how he is and don't become an arrogant prick like Caleb. J tells him to have a good match. Caleb barks at him.

Mack Davis is with Mike and Bigfoot. Tommy has the long hair.

Mik wristlocks Tommy and butt drops his arm. Mike trips Tommy and twists his foot. JP superkicks Mike. Tommy and JP choke Mike on the bottom rope. Mike takes a double boot then a fist drop + splash.

Big no sells a double superkick then he hits a double chokeslam. Big then chokeslams Mike onto the Boyz. Big dogpile pins all of them to win.

Thoughts: Look, it's JCW. It's supposed to be ridiculous. It was entertaining and done well with Bigfoot coming in and destroying. I'd hate this in any other fed, but this was exactly what it should have been and I enjoyed it. Bigfoot is over as a mega face in JCW.

Bigfoot then runs off through the crowd and Mack Davis goes chasing after him. Mike yells after as he realizes Bigfoot is on the loose again. 

We see Barnabas begging outside. Dani Mo and The Outbreak come up to him. Barn is happy to see them and says last week felt like a dream come true. Barn says the crowd wants them to be back together. Dani and The Outbreak walk away and Dani says she's got no change for him.

We see Sally Boy arrive with a box of chocolates. 

Barnabas begs outside and finds someone from a movie/tv show called Meatball Mama's. He says this person would be better if she was a wrestler. He tries to recruit her and says he can take them to the top. This person talks on the phone and they decline Barn's offer. Barn then asks for spare change.

Thoughts: It was inevitable that Steven Flowe would get involved and he eventually did. They tried and it was more workrate focused than the usual match. Both guys could have had better strikes here though. It wasn't that good.

The ring Rat wants Facade's approval after but Facade walks away.

Sally Boy is looking for Big Al in the back. 

Choppa City run into Barnabas crying outside. Barn asks if they want to beat him up again. They ask what happened to him. Barn sees the tag titles and offers to manage them. Barn makes his pitch to them. Bruce says they are at the top and Barn stuck the zombies on them a month ago. Barn asks if they have change and they give him some money. Barn says to call him but says his phone is off as he doesn't have a pot to p!ss in.  

Mack Davis talks to Mr. Happy and Baby Pooey. Happy and his kid come out in a stroller and they greet the DJ and the commentators. Happy wheels the kid around in the ring. 

Mack congratulates Happy. He asks how it feels to be a new daddy. Jasmin St. Claire and Dijak interrupt and come out before Happy says anything. Jas calls Happy a fat tub of lard and says look at what he did to her. Jas says she's fat, has stretch marks and her chest is down to her knees.She says it's all for a b@stard named Baby Pooey. Jas says it's impossible to be mother of the year but she could never be as good as Lindsay Clancy. She promises to make Happy's life a living hell.

Fadem asks Happy if he has hemorrhoid issues and says J can attest that's the man for that stuff. J says he's fine and gets mad.

Tony shoves Pondo. Pondo hits Tony with a stop sign twice. Bruce then pins Tony and Pondo fast counts the pin.

Thoughts: Choppa City took a bunch of floor bumps here. This could have been shorter as it was slower and almost all brawling. It had some moments but I would say it was average.

Sally Boy finds Big Al. He says he appreciates her picking him last week. Sally says he's  trying to change things and gives her chocolates. He then walks away and Al doesn't say anything.

Choppa City talk in the back. Tony and Mack go up to them and yell. Tony says Pondo screwed him. Bruce says Pondo is crazy and it's their problem. Mack says they should take this opportunity to beat their @sses. Atiba says let's do it then. They fight and Pondo appears behind a door laughing.

Lineal JCW World Title - Josh Bishop (c) vs Painful Paul

Jeeves and EC3 pop up behind Caleb. EC punches Caleb and throws him in the ring. EC pounds on him. JB then attacks EC, Caleb and Jeeves. This is ruled a no contest.

Thoughts: We didn't get a lot of this before the bell. And because both guys are so big, it limited what they could do.

Krule then comes in to join the fight. The JWO then come help Paul and join the fight. Choppa City then comes out and joins the fight. "Thunderkiss" Bulk Rogan then comes out and starts dropping everyone with punches. Bulk slams Bruce and lariats Atiba and Tony. Bulk throws Krule and Paul out. Bulk hits punches on Mack and throws him out. Bulk then points at Jeeves and hits punches. Bulk gives him the big boot and legdrops him. Bulk then does Hulk Hogan poses to end the show.

Overall thoughts: It was the usual JCW show for the most part. The non-wrestling segments carried the show while the wrestling segments were average. If you enjoy what JCW usually does, you will probably enjoy this one, but if you are looking for notch wrestling and big budgets, this won't be for you. The Backseat Boyz' tag was entertaining with Bigfoot getting super over. Monroe/Facade wasn't that good. Choppa City's match was longer and could have been a little better. The main wasn't much and ended in a giant brawl. I'd give it a 6 out of 10 as the show was fine due to the non-wrestling segment. Non-JCW fans would probably want more out of this one.

WWE Evolve 10/14/2026 Evolve Succession IV

WWE Evolve 10/14/2026 Evolve Succession IV

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/wwe-evolve-1072026.html

Note - Laynie Luck, Cappuccino Jones, Sam Holloway and Marcus Mathers are gone from WWE. Cap and Sam getting cut are big surprises. I never really thought Sam even needed to be in Evolve and WWE was clearly high on Cap for a while.

Note 2 - This went up against WWE Main Event and AEW Dynamite. There were no announcements about this show changing days or times to make room for Main Event and the show appears that it will stay on Wednesdays at 8PM for now.

We are at the Performance Center in Orlando, FL. Robert Stone and Blake Howard are on commentary.

Wnedy Choo says she should be walking in as champ but Nikkita took it away from her. She says she will be the last woman standing.

Nikkita Lyons and Sloane Jacobs talk. Lyons says she will put Choo back to sleep and be the last man standing.

Harley Riggins says this is where the road to NXT begins or ends. He says his reign starts tonight. 

Harlem Lewis says this is an event where a chammp builds a resume. He says he will take his Harlem Violence World Tour to the next level.

The hosts talk and welcome us to the show. 

WWE Evolve Title - Harlem Lewis (c) vs Harley Riggins

HR throws him down backwards. HR double jump twisting swantons him for 2. HR misses a corner charge and Lewis spears him. Lewis jackhammers him and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a shorter but explosive match. They all did high impact moves here and both guys got slammed pretty good. This was a good battle and one of the best matches both guys have had.

Overall thoughts: It was a good show overall. We had 3 matches and all over delivered. Harlem Lewis is now out though which should change things up and 4 different people on this show have since been fired, which should also change things up going forward. Lewis/Riggins was the match of the night. I'd give this a 7 out of 10. They delivered here.
