He says he's not locked in a cage with Thom, Thom is locked in a cage with him.

Thoughts: I wasn't too into this one. Drake's enzugiri based offense didn't look good and this was a random match.

J says she's not the only second gen wrestler out there. J says Paige's daddy handed her everything. J says she's about that life though and says Paige will find out real soon.

Loser Must Serve The Other Match - Alex Misery vs. Lev

I looked through my archives to try to figure out the reason for this and I got nothing. These two had a match together in December. Ocasio beat up both of them and the match had no finish. There's been nothing on these two since.

Billy Corgan says he tries to think of things that might interest the fans. He says they were talking trash to each other and talked them into having a match. Alex is shouldered over and he kips up. Lev top wristlocks him. Alex eye rakes him then armlocks him.

They trade shots and Lev tells him he hates him. Lev ushigoroshi's him. Alex crucifixes him for 2. Alex tornado ddt's Lev. Alex lifts him on his shoulder and swinging ddt's him down to win.

Thoughts: It was shorter than I expected. What we got was okay but not really the epic match I was expecting for this gimmick. As I said, there was no real reason for this stipulation.

EC3 does a promo for 3/22.

Aron Stevens does a promo. He said because he has a pretty face, people thought he couldn't get down. He says he has known The Immortals for a long time. He says he knows this is personal and know they want him. He says they can't take his mind games and his a-games. He says he won't put tights on for them. He says they can pick a partner and fight him and BFT. He says they aren't winning this fight with him and BFT. 

Kyle Davis hosts a meeting between Silas Mason and Bryan Idol. Idol says he has done everything he can do to move the needle for this company. Idol says everyone has had enough of The Southern Six. He says what Silas did to Kyle Davis was disgusting and he had to take a stand for it. He says he has no problem standing up to Silas.

Silas says the only needles Idol moves are into his @ss. He says Idol has been giving it all he has but it's not enough and says he doesn't have enough balls. He says Idol wants to chin check him, but he wasn't made with a glass jaw. Silas tells him not to miss if he takes a swing at the king.

Silas then yells at Kyle Davis. Silas tells him to get on his knees and apologize to him for going after him a while ago. Kyle says he loves the NWA. He says he doesn't owe Silas an apology. He says he let his emotions get in the way and got his @ss kicked. Kyle says he learned his lesson and says he hopes Silas does too. He says he hopes the best man wins.

Thoughts: I liked this segment. I wish they would have followed up on a little better as it wasn't mentioned much lately but they got this right at least.

Trevor Murdoch then does a music video called "In My Heart' where he rips Daisy Kill and Talos. He's with Eric Smallz and Knox.

Overall thoughts: It was the usual bad Powerrr episode. We had random debuts, matches and wrestlers. Things were brought up that weren't mentioned for a while and Billy Corgan told us about stuff that happened that we never got to see which isn't a good way to build matches. I liked the Silas/Kyle/Idol segment but it could have been mentioned more prior to the show. The stuff with The Cazana's was a waste of time and there was a bad finish involved. Baba Thunder also debuted to a match with a bad finish. This is just such a hard show to watch and follow. I'd give this a 3 out of 10 and would not recommend it at all.
