Opening Segment
Interesting to see Ted DiBiase as your figure head. Also very interesting to see Tod Gordon and Paul Heyman in the same room together. A 6 man gauntlet sure is one hell of a main event, I wonder who the mystery guy is. The whole time I'm thinking it's Brock Lesnar.
Tajiri Vs Little Guido
I'm glad that Tajiri one this excellent match. Liked it alot cause both of them have an insane chance of winning, but knowing slipping up once could cost you a match against Tajiri. Good booking here.
Backstage Segment with Nick Dinsmore
Man DiBiase treated him like crap. Well, at least you didn't put him as the Eugine gimmick. I wonder what Ted was laughing about?
HooliganZ vs Backseat Boys
Very odd of you to have it win in a double pin. I would've preferred the Backseat Boys to win but that's just me, maybe it will be a triple threat tag for the titles.
Sabu vs Gregory Helms
Excellent hardcore match here! Pretty pissed that Sabu lost, but it would've been amazing if he won. I also could never imagine Sabu missing an arabian face crusher, pretty brutal. Also Matt Sydal showing up at the end was pretty surprising, although I Matt did the Cyclorama instead of the Shooting Star Press and thank GOD you did not call him Evan Bourne.
Rhino vs Paul Burchill
Decent match here, once again looking for the challeneger to capture the title. I thought it was gonna be over as soon as Rhino hit that gore. Burchill is an idiot for calling out Albert at the end haha.
Gauntlet Match
Christian got eliminated a little too early, pretty mad that Punk got eliminated, would've been nice to see him in 2FW with the ICW belt around his waist ;D. WOW! I did not expect Samoa Joe to be the mystery participant, and good for him getting the number 1 contender shot.
Overall, this was a good show, you over did it a little bit with all the promos and interviews, it was like between every match there was a promo or an interview, i wouls try doing one every two matches. Keep up the good work bro, can't wait till the next episode.

I really pictured "I Need a Hero" being played for a music video, following DiBiase's segment. Reaching out to just about anyone to take out the Corporation.
Opening segment with the Corporation was pretty well written. I like where it's going
Tajiri and Guido was very reminiscent to their classics on ECW on TNN. A great opener. I love that the whole entourage had their own stuff going on during the match. The gimmick of the FBI was nailed perfectly.
Albert remembers where the door is! I liked the promo a lot. Couldn't Dinsmore just pass the title shot up though if he lost, and move on to something else, if he really wants Regal & Tajiri out of his hair?
A good promo from Kurt Angle.
One thing I'm noticing is a LOT of Jim Johnson produced themes. Doesn't particularly make sense when they are covers of real themes, like the FBI one. I'd change a few around, so that so many themes aren't produced by the same guy.
I figured there'd be a breakdown brawl between the girls. Like, I expected it. It took longer than I expected to happen, but it happened.
Head knows Al made a poor move screwing with Homicide. think about that.. HEAD IS THE BRAINS OF THE OPERATION!
I kind of figured Sabu didn't have much of a chance to win the title. Assassins rarely get the job done. good booking regardless.
Matt Sydal! A guy I really wanted to use on a permanent basis after using him for the Japan shows.
A great CM Punk promo
DiBiase's assassins are 0-2. Burchill really destroyed Rhino.
Albert stepping into the ring!
So much chaos before the start of the Gauntlet.
I really would've went with Samoa Joe's "Momma Said Knock You Out" theme, especially for the "Don't call it a comeback! I've been here for years.." opening line from the Godzilla mix.
The gauntlet was pretty good. I'm not sure how it makes Orton look to get smashed in such short order, though he did have a pretty rough battle before.
Overall, this was a really good show. It seems like following Redemption, ICW is really going in a fresh new direction. I'm excited to see how things play out.
