I watched the finals without seeing even the entire first round. A great story told here. Kota Ibushi and Zack Sabre, Jr. going out early made sense if they haven't signed contracts, and honestly, Gran Metalik seems like he's better than ZSJ anyway.

Perkins got some major stuff down. He's managed to get "Kneebar" over and he's got souped-up versions of it. He came off as really well spoken. He looked like a deer caught in the headlights a bit -- like he lacks real charisma, you know? But in the ring and on the mic he is very good, so he'll fill the space he needs to well. The story told here made him seem like a "legit" star, but it'll be interesting to see how that goes on the main roster.

Love Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa as a team. Please keep them together WWE. I liked how they got time to let everything breathe on this show. They let stuff stew and brought out Corey Graves and William Regal for that extra padding. Good stuff and it felt legit.

Triple H just HAD to get himself over with this thing though didn't he? He put Regal out there too, but man, Mauro and Regal just HAD to name-drop him as the mastermind and he just had to come out and present the Cruiserweight Title to whoever won. Like, fair-played that he's really trying to get himself over as a guy who can do this, but there's a lot of ego in these things too, and people just lap it up.
