Another well booked show. Liked the opener, pairing up the 2 matches. Plus it has the throwback to Konley vs Cage there as well. Alexander vs Cage has some good momentum to it and having just watched him in Lucha Underground today, gotta say I've grown a bit on Cage from before. He was always good enough, just had never really seen him stand out anywhere on recent indies or WWE developmental. They gave him the ball though in L.U. and he is doing a good job at running with it in the program with Puma. If you haven't been watching, definitely worth checking it out to get a better idea on what can be done with this guy as you had already been using him well. He could really be something here, win, lose, or draw against Cedric.

Main event was a good start to Henry vs Owens. A little bit of a side story thrown in with Cole & Corino not at ringside being overly pointed out, and losing now sets up well for a rematch where they are at ringside. Will it be different? Loses again, I wouldn't want to be in Owens shoes, wins, and it creates a good dynamic for a third rubber match. Still proving to be the most competitive division, now with BUSHI added out of Kenshiki. Really interested to see who ends up last man standing of the names currently in play once the dust settles and new names are moving in.

Surprised you ditched Matt Hardy without a final blow off match against Skylar to really cement him as a top guy, although at least you wrote him out with the DDT on the concrete on the 5th. You have a lot of guys gunning for that U.S. Title, mostly heel. Curious as to which face steps up into that picture to give the odd guys out something to do, or maybe somebody new.

I really like where your product is heading. As JP said, you have a lot going on and a lot of challengers for the United States title, so there are a lot of fun options coming. Looking forward to the 23rd.
