Thoughts: Genesis losing again was disappointing. I didn't see that as a possibility. The match was okay enough but not that great. Santana adjusted her offense for two girls instead of one which was good.

Overall thoughts: It was an average episode of WOW. Fury/Holidead was a real stinker and the tag match wasn't that great. The main was okay enough and the opener was maybe the best thing on here. There were no backstage interviews or segments here this week. I'd give it a 4 out of 10 as I thought it could have been better and it just feels like we can never figure out who the #1 contender or WOW champ is these days without shenanigans. I wouldn't recommend this.
