I'm going to do a more thing later in my next Steve's View, after the MPW show, but I thought I'd post some quick thoughts for now.
The show was really solid from top to bottom, only two matches were even questionable, and one of those two (the XLUM match) was only questionable because how late in the card it was and how much time it got.
I did have a problem with the show however, all the flyers, Rev Pro's site, the email they sent me, everything says this "Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for kids 12 and under". When I get to the show they say tickets are $12 because of a misprint. I could understand that, and it was for a good cause, but... they didn't catch this misprint in the nearly two months since it was announced? Then I found out the misprint was on the tickets, that when the tickets were made $12 was accidentally put on them. So why go ahead and charge the $12? That made zero sense. I'm willing to give them the benifit of the doubt that it was an honest mistake, because Rev Pro has been around 3 years and I don't remember any other shady happenings, and they have always been one of the most honest promotions around.
I know it is only March but Talwar is making a strong case for ROTY early.
The main was the best match of the year so far.
I think Shogun should come out with Gordon Schumway every show, then after each match Gordon can eat Shogun's opponents.
No one on Rev Pro's roster does a 5 star frog splash. No one.
Like I said I'll have a more in depth review and thoughts Saturday night or Sunday morning, and I'm sure Scrub will too.
