Adam Copeland came out to start the show and said that while Tommy Dreamer was in charge of wrestlers on the CPW roster, Tanaka was not a member of the CPW Roster. He said that as the Director of International Talent he could make the match... But he wasn't going to make just ANY match! He said it would be reminiscent of the ORIGINAL ECW mixed with some old school Big Japan Pro Wrestling! He announced the match would be a Barbed Wire Lightbulbs Death Match!

Hi! It's finally here. I can see you've been pressed for time but it was a good show. I like Money Inc so that was cool. And Tanaka's match really was a surprise. I only wish you'd posted it earlier, I could've factored it into my Tournament. For the sake of revisionism, I will say that Tanaka was already severely beaten during his match with Dreamer, ergo he was defeated by Suzuki apart from Suzuki being a complete bad ass.

That explains Kingston! It's got to be an angle right? I don't know if I'm being worked now.

I love FoF and Cabana so overall out was a good night for me and I am really keen for Matthews versus ADR simply because he's such a great challenger. I can see him beating Rio especially now he doesn't have to concentrate on the Entertainment title.

I like The Show Stoppers as a team, and Cody Rhodes feels very fresh as a big time champion. I like that Banks got the pinfall in his tag team match.The only thing Id say is that I would have probably booked the barbed wire lighttubes match later in the show, as its more of a freak show attraction and could have been a major draw in and of itself. Anything after that looks pretty domestic, but I liked the show overall.
