---------------------------------
Main event sounds like it could be alright. Otherwise, sounds like a bland show to me.
It seems as if the financial hold on the company is finally starting to shine through a bit lately. Well, at least they are bringing in some Chikara guys and doing a few different things. Too bad they haven't had a show I felt like picking up on tape for sometime now though......
I'm a Daniels mark, and I kinda want to see the Jacobs match, too. I don't think that justifies a buy tho.
