Opening Segment
What I Liked:
Hulk Hogan starts off the show discussing a few matches for tonight, and talks about King Mo's debut as a special enforcer. He moves onto Aces and Eights, and then Sting comes out. Sting says he has Hogan's back tonight. This was a quick and effective way to put the fan's perspective on what will happen. I know I wasn't the only one who thought for a second that Sting would turn his back on Hogan. The segment did just enough for me not to complain too much about.
What I Disliked:
Even though Dixie does not need to be seen every week, she still is the owner of this company. Shouldn't she come out and support Hogan? Where is the worry from the top of the food chain? I also think that she would be a crucial part just to be seen, and possibly kidnapped.
Grade: B
Christopher Daniels Defeats Kurt Angle and Chavo Guerrero
What I Liked:
As they prepare for the Triple Threat Tag Team Championship match at Bound For Glory, I was really refreshed to see this match. I expect the partners to compete next week in a similar match. We had the best of their team compete tonight, with Daniels using his intelligence and speed to really keep the match going. Angle and Guerrero also do a great job with timing, including german suplexes in the middle part of the match. Chavo and Kurt argue with one another in the ring, as Angle interrupts the attempted Frog Splash. Daniels came in and stole a victory, in a very clever way. For weeks, the champions have looked the weakest, so this was the right call giving them the momentum into the final weeks of the big event.
What I Disliked:
There really was not a down part in the match that I disliked. I just wonder if the match next week will be more of a letdown. Who do they have win next week, and what team gets the biggest momentum? I still think the titles need to be switched at Bound For Glory, but I am thinking too ahead of myself.
