Thoughts: Like last time, it wasn't a bad effort from Max. The arm work didn't really lead to anything here and there wasn't much of a story but Max hit her stuff mostly clean and looked competent against Ivy.

Thoughts: It was a good tag here with The LWO doing lots of flying and the bigger guys using their weight against them. It was a good effort and they made as much as they could of this without overdoing it.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches as usual along with recaps. Both matches were fine and The Raiders vs The LWO was pretty good. The show wasn't must see or anything but it was a decent 15 minutes.
