Overall Show Score: 7/10
Pros: I appreciate having this event totally embracing the Halloween spirit with everyone dressing up before their matches. Matt Cardona’s promo was very good with Billy Corgan. EC3 retained the World Championship in his hometown and there are certain moments throughout the night did make me laugh.
I did enjoy myself.
Cons: A lot of the gimmick matches had too much silliness for my likening. I still don’t get the appeal of the The Brothers Of Funstruction or Violent J. There were too many interferences in good matches and my least favourite match was that Devil’s Last Dance Ultimate Hardcore Team War Match as the opener.
