Overall Show Score: 5/10
Pros: I tolerated the Japanese commentary. I’m glad House Of Torture didn’t win the NEVER Owenweight 6-man Tag Team Championships in the finals.
Cons: My picks the United Empire didn’t a balanced in 6-Man Tag Team Tournament. I didn’t get invested that much into the action of the event that much & I didn’t like this event all that much.
