$12? Why don't you just let'em in for free for fucks sake.
(would have gone with $14, for, the first show of 2014...*shrugs*)
/seriously, if I lived in Texas, $12 for those Inspire Shows is thuper value.Comment

Bravados def. Young Bucks for Open the United Gate titles. Can't help but think that might be political with Bucks being New Japan regulars now.
Mochizuki def. Gargano, non title.Comment

Bravados were apparently booed out of the building as babyfaces.
When you have "cool" heels, they gotta lose to REALLY cool faces. Not Bravados.Comment

Now there are rumors he was difficult to work with attitude wise. Not that he was an asshole, but that he was stubborn in some respects. That thing that came out a few weeks ago where Trips was saying that he'd rather sign guys who are a "clean slate" instead of guys who already have a name, because the names are more set in their ways and harder to change, was said to be directed at Hero. Plus the thing where they are having some trouble changing Sami Zayn (why on earth you would change ANYTHING he does is beyond me) in terms of appealing to the crowd too much (wut) and spacing out his highspots (he's never struck me as a spot monkey at all, but I guess this is the land of Randy Orton and his endless chinlocks). But who knows.Comment

He was crazy over and they drew their biggest crowd in a long, long time. Gabe mentioned on twitter that tickets were flying when they announced him, but everyone just figured that was promoter speak. Turned out to be true.
They also turned the Bravados last night. I mean, they had to. They got booed again coming out. Bucks asked for a rematch, so Bravados came out with a ref. But it was swerve, they low blowed them, gave them belt shots, and hit their finish. Then got a visual pin and said "there's your fuckin title shot!". Sounded like a cool angle. I like Bucks better as heels but everybody cheers them anyway.Comment

Post match Hero gave a long speech about feeling nervous watching all the talented guys wrestling before him on the rest of the card. Said this was his longest match in how ever many month he had been with WWE. Said after the match he just had he's hurting all over but he's inspired to be the best and to prove to all the fans. Not gonna ride his reputation he had before he left. He's gonna "kick everyone's fucking ass!" Said he wants gold around his waist. AR Fox came out and said he'll give him a shot at the Evolve title.
So that's 4 title matches he has since coming back, right? DGUSA, PWG, CZW and now Evolve.Comment
