Impact Wrestling Corporation: Week Two Review
by The Show Off

• I’m glad you at least explained why Kane is back in the mask.

• Garnering sympathy for Michael Cole isn’t easy and I’ve found even as a burn victim I still don’t sympathize. But at least you have a good commentary team.

• Good match with Ki and Barrett but I still don’t know the deal with either of them, the match has no context. The context is then provided after the match. I guess Ki and Danielson are trying to impress one another.

• Carlito being recruited to The Family makes a lot of sense him denying it also makes a lot of sense.

• What is the Gateway Championship? Is it just a secondary championship or are their some special stipulations to it?

• Good match between McGillicuty and Carlito. I like that he has aligned himself with Randy Orton and Triple H the idea of faction vs. faction is always a nice dynamic. Unfortunately the trio of Orton, Triple H, and Carlito seems vastly superior to The Family as far as talent goes and they have less members. The heel faction shouldn’t be at a disadvantage in number it just doesn’t make for a pleasing dynamic.

• Abyss and Kane vs. Gallows and Morgan does little to nothing for me. You built up Morgan well last week and you tried to build up Gallows this week, but I’m not buying.

• Carlito vs. McGillacutty rematch next week and if he wins he gets a title shot. Shouldn’t next week be the title shiot since McGillicutty already won this week?

• I like the authenticity of having a corporate sponsor.

• A friendly rivalry between Ki and Danielson is good, I like the context of this rivalry. Them trying to impress one another is a good way to considering their background.

• Good way of trying to legitimize Jey Uso by making him actively seek membership with The Family by taking on Husky Harris.

• Good way of selling Dustin as a great competitor while simultaneously expressing that he is a compromised competitor.

• Good way of having Orton cost Dustin his match and get revenge against Koslov.

• Finally we hear from Triple H! The promo was bland but we’ve heard he was aligned with Orton for a show and ¾ and he now finally opens his mouth. The promo itself was bland but effective.

• You’re quite good at talking up a match before it starts, I actually believe Chavo has something to prove despite nothing mentioned about his vouching for Orton before hand.

• Triple H not pinning Chavo so he could beat him up as much as he wants in the context of the match is a good move by the Cerebral Assassin.

• Jesse Gordy run it! Yeah it’s not that big a deal. But if he is a member of The Family wouldn’t he be suspended?
