It's not just the stories that should be hooking you in though. The in-ring action is some of the best on offer too, with the main event of Jake Crist and Madman Fulton vs. Tessa Blanchard and Daga providing some quality spots throughout, while Ace Austin vs. Eddie Edwards was another wonderful bout that mixed both of these aforementioned aspects of wrestling. The story that's been told between them over the last while has been an intriguing one to follow.
