He said he needed to sit in a dark room and remind himself who he was. He says he needed to remind himself what he does best - bouncing people's heads off the mat. He says the way he came back was calculated. He says in a business where everyone knows everything, nobody knew nothing and he liked it.

Thoughts: It's good to see Joe win. He had really been close to heading to the island of irrelevance and this helps things out. I don't think they did a good job of booking him lately and hopefully this makes up for it. It was a fun ladder match with lots of mayhem. Keanu crashed hard through a ladder and Sean had to have gotten whiplash from a springboard 450 onto a ladder. 

Overall thoughts: I liked the opener. Elio/Dempsey wasn't bad. The women's tag match pushed the issues between Zaria and Sol and it did what it was supposed to do. The Chase U tag was short. The main delivered and was an exciting PLE main event on free TV. I liked the show as a whole and thought they got a lot done on here as always. I'd give this a 7 out of 10 overall and I'd recommend it. It was a good show.
