This event showcased the amazing, high flying, death defying talent from the country & every match was top quality, fast paced & risk taking which kept everyone in attendance glued to their seat. All the matches were fantastic & honestly I can’t pick one as a match of the night because I enjoyed every match. So by far this show was in one word…Phenomenal. This show is being produced into a DVD to be purchased at a later date with Ryan “GQ Money” Katz & Former ROH Champion Nigel McGuinness provided the commentary. I have to say a big thank you to all the Indy Stars, Brian Kendrick & Pappy Pineda promotions for putting on this event & hoping that this show becomes a yearly event. Brian Kendrick did mention that another unique type event may be coming to the Pappy Pineda dome sometime later. If you were there, you were treated to a great event but if you weren’t able to attend I recommend buying the DVD, you won’t be disappointed.
