Max Castellanos arrives singing, "I am the champion". He says he beat 3 men at Summer of Champions and became the 3x champ. He talks about Cam Cole and calls himself, "El Villano". He then smokes a cigar and keeps signing.

Will Allday goes up top Cam Cole, who is looking in the mirror. Will says this isn't the man he knows or the man he can be. He asks who this fake persona is. He asks where's the world champ and the guy who used to be the man around here. He says Cam doesn't need his scarf and antics, he just needs to go out there and be the man. 

The commentators talk about Trick Williams vs Gino Medina tonight.

Thoughts: Cam's offense could have been a bit better here at times and I would have liked to have seen more fire from him. I also thought this could have used a quicker to it. This was just so-so.

Cappuccino Jones is interviewed. He is told he is facing Zack Mason tonight. He says he's been waiting for this. He says Zack has been on the caffeine but the caffeine always comes with a crash. He says Zack will find out why he's the WWE ID champ.

Thoughts: It was acceptable. I didn't think it was one of Cap's best outings here as Zack wasn't very heelish towards him and Cap didn't get do a big comeback or more of his flying stuff.

TNA World Title - Trick Williams (c) vs Gino Medina

Both guys get good reactions with the crowd being very loud for Trick. This has NWA touring champion vibes here.

Trick hits a spinning facekick to start for 2. Trick hits mounted shots on GM. Trick flapjacks him. Trick does a capoeira and GM rolls him up for 2. GM crucifixes him for 2. Trick boots him in the gut and GM cradles him for 2.

GM 2nd rope twisting crossbodies him. GM corkscrew kicks him. GM impaler ddt's him for 2. AJ Francis comes in and nails Gino from behind, causing the DQ.

Thoughts: The ending was disappointing here. Gino wouldn't have lost anything by losing clean. The crowd was fantastic here but Gino had a lot of weak shots and didn't have his best night. This also needed at least another 10 minutes. It was so-so.

AJ grabs Gino by the throat. Zilla Fatu comes out. He stunners AJ over the top rope. Zilla and Trick trade shots. Zilla headbutts him and hits chops. Gino rejoins the fight and they pair off int he corners. The show then ends with Zilla superkicking AJ out of the ring. 

Overall thoughts: They put out a decent card here with Trick Williams wrestling but it didn't quite deliver. None of the matches were that great here and we sadly got a dirty finish in the main which was disappointing. The main could have also easily used another 10 minutes. I would give this a 5 out of 10. It was an average show and I wouldn't recommend it.
