Thoughts: It was probably the best match Chen has ever had. I liked this one. Ilja was his usual stiff self here and they both got some nice shots in on the other. It was fiery and Ilja didn't slow down despite this one being on a show people don't see. This couldn't have gone much better than it did and was good.

Overall thoughts: Chen vs Ilja was really fun and is one of those rare sleeper Main Event matches. That one is worth is a look. The girls match was okay and also one of Lola's better outings. I liked the two new matches we got here and thought it was a good show.
