Overall it was pretty good, but I don't think I'd go again. Here's a few notes:
- TNA fans are sheep EVERYWHERE apparently
- The ring on the Webster Hall stage was great, but it was insanely small.
- Borash kept hyping up the loud fans get to go backstage crap which we know isn't happening.
- Yes Dreamer was there, but just in the crowd. He was most likely just saying hi to a few old ECW and WWE guys. Nunzio was also there but he didn't show up when Brother Ray called for him. The reason we got the Dreamer in TNA 'newz' is because at one point Ray said "How about we see Dreamer in TNA?" and the sheep went nuts.
- MCMG opened...which was weird. Seeing my favorite wrestlers on the roster within the first 10 minutes was kind of a let down.
- Most of the matches were short and weird. A lot of the wrestlers, especially Sonjay Dutt, posed for the crowd more than wrestled.
- Kurt's championship broke during his ring entrance, which was pretty funny.
- The crowd was loud and high energy all night, but insanely creepy, weird, and smelly. A guy in front of me got a high five from Gail Kim and he proceeded to smell his hand immediately...and this isn't one of those guys that would do it as a joke either.
- Overall it was an okay show, mainly for humor. Earl Hebner was getting crap all night. It was hilarious.

That is by far the creepiest thing I have ever heard in my entire life. I actually got uncomfortable and a little weirded out just be reading it. - Most of the matches were short and weird.

Whats wrong with having the MCMG on first? You're suppose to start with a good opener to get the crowd hot.

I think he's referring to all the ****ty chants The chants were probably the worst part, mainly because the morons all thought they were going backstage. The guy in front of me for most of the night, creepy hand smelling guy, kept starting chants and staring at my friend and I to help get them going, which we were having none of. Now that I'm a little more sober (thank you complimentary drink passes) I remember some other good things. - Dixie Carter was there, which I thought was cool. As much as I don't like TNA, I appreciate a president that will - At the end a bunch of guys came into the crowd to sign stuff and so pictures. You could also get in the ring and take a picture with Kurt Angle and hold the NWA belt for $20 which was nice. I'm not a big photo/autograph guy so I took this chance to leave. - The place had maybe 2-3 other smarky guys which was great because the sheep had no idea how to react. The Dudleys went against LAX and Bubba announced it was going to be a NYC street fight and the one smark yelled "Awwww, I wanted a submission match!" which cracked me up. The sheep also did NOT like us booing Samoa Joe. The most awkward moment was after the crowd wouldn't stop the "You screwed Bret!" chants towards Hebner. As it died down we started a "Bret Hart sucks!" chant and I thought we were going to die...it did shut em up for a bit at least. Oh and the reason I didn't like MCMG first is because it was probably the shortest match of the night since it's the warm up/opener match.

Both the "submission match" comment and the "Bret Hart sucks" chant. I love going to a live show and seeing good matches and all but it seems like every live show I've been to (actually mostly WWE) the crowd has made my night for me. And I've been to two ROH shows and the crowd alone made me feel like I was definately getting my moneys worth.
