Full Gear

A pretty good show from top to bottom here, but most of the matches ran for far too long. We needed a couple fast ones, but a lot of good wrestling here.

Too long mashup of styles

I was writing a long review and it cost me a few hours but I was stupid enough not to save midway and now it's deleted so here are the scores: Pre-show: Didn't watch MJF vs Darby Allin: 8/10 Lucha Brothers vs FTR: 4/10 Bryan Danielson vs Miro: 7.5/10 Christian Cage/Jungle Boy/Luchasaurus vs Adam Cole/The Young Bucks: 2/10 Adrade El Idolo/Aleister Black vs Cody Rhodes/PAC: 5/10 Britt Baker vs Tay Conti: 5/10 CM Punk vs Eddie Kingston: 8/10 American Top Team/Ethan Page/Scorpio Sky vs Inner Circle: 4/10 Kenny Omega vs Adam Page: 6/10

The last match and the show as a whole were hurt by this going too long. It was 4 hours long, not even counting the pre-show. Especially the multi-man brawls should have been cut significantly. I've also simply seen too much of those types of matches by this company. The matches I was looking forward to all delivered except for the overbooked main event.

Final Score: 5.5/10 (cut the big brawls in half and you've got a significantly higher score though)
