Aeroboy won via pinfall 

4/5


Judge Joe Dred v. Eric Dillinger in a Chicago Strap Match.


These guys decided to do this old school and made the stipulation to where you have to touch all 4 corners to win. This was just a nice match that would have fit in well on an early '90s WCW PPV. The only thing that sucked was the finish, the final corner being alive didn't make sense. 


Eric Dillinger won 

2.5/5


Shlak defended the Rust Belt Championship against Journey Fatu

Terry Shaw retained via pinfall
4/5

Overall

The death match stuff on this show was great. However, I feel like if I give the Junior heavyweights time, I could be into it, but as of now, I'm not into it, and it brought the show down to me.

President Hawkins v. Lady Blakely in a Last Person Standing Match


Lady Blakely came out at the beginning of the match and asked for this stipulation. These two exchanged chair shots. They had a chair shot exchange. I just wish the chair shots were laid in more. President Hawkins suplexed Lady Blakely on a pile of chairs and a door but Lady Blakely rolled off of the ring to beat the 10 count. This match was decent. It was a good way to blow off the feud, I thought. 


Lady Blakely was the Last Person Standing

2.25/5


Kasey Owens defended the TWE Gig City Championship Cecilio Vega 


In this match, if the match reaches the time limit, Kasey Owens loses the Gig City Championship. This match was too short and didn't have much to it.

This was a so-so match, but the big takeaway from this match was Frankie Hendrix pulling out Jimmy Deacon to cost GG Everson the championship. 


Eeron Wade retained via pinfall 

1.5/5


The Goons v. Peace Love and Death Match (Alex Stretch and Anthraxx) in a Tag Team Taipei Death Match 


Other than hitting each other with broken glass taped to their fists, the Goons made use of a trash can lid on Anthraxx. Alex Stretch used a gusset plate on Lizzy Blair. This was a cool brawl-style match until the finish, where the table with Peyton Blair on it wouldn't break, and the referee still counted the pin. The finish was very confusing.

This was Homicide's last match at the H20 Center. Homicide threw a Chair at Austin Luke. Austin Luke jammed a fork into Low Life Louie's head.  Homicide hit the Cop Killer and finished it off. This was a chaotic brawl, but I liked that Homicide got to shine on his way out.

2.75/5


Overall


The show, other than the last 3 matches, didn't really stand out to me. I didn't love it, didn't hate it. They let Homicide go out like the king he is so I'm into that.

After not getting it the first time Jessie Mack suplexed Hardcore through a shower door. After Jessie Mack missed a Cannonball through a shower door, Hardcore snuck then won it with a roll-up.

That Kyle busted open PD Skillz with a Thumbtack Bat. These two had a staple gun exchange Kyle used a cowbell with a gusset plate on it on PD Skillz.

Rush Rancid raked a strand of Barbed Wire on Wade Allan's head. Wade Allan put Rush Rancid through a barbed wire board. Wade Allan got the win with a senton while he wrapped himself in barbed wire. The match was okay but too slow-paced for my liking.

Wade Allan advanced via pinfall

Aero uses Thumbtack hockey gloves on Hill. Hill uses a Thumbtack ping pong paddle on Aero. Aero suplexed Hill onto a pile of tacks. The 2 Tyler's had a Thumbtack Bat exchange. Hill put Thumbtacks in the mouth of Aero, duct taped Aero's mouth shut, and gave him a Curb Stomp. Aero gave Hill a Swanton through a door. And Tyler Aero pulled off the victory. This was a good match that put both of these guys on my radar. 


Tyler Aero won via pinfall

Jesse Amato used a cheese grater on Green Phantom's arm. Green Phantom returned the favor with the cheese grater. It took him 2 times but Green Phantom used a light tube skateboard on Amato. Green Phantom hit the Phantom menace for the win. This match was okay but it was slow.

PD Skillz put Hardcore in the sharpshooter, and as Hardcore went to Will Carrol and Kyle for help, they turned on Hardcore and gave him the title. This was a good match and a great story to finish the show with. I'm down for a Hardcore/That Kyle match. That's a main event anywhere.


PD Skillz won the Crazy Eight and the Canadian Death Match Championship via submission 

3.25/5


Overall


This was a good tournament.  I got to see what Canada had to offer; some stuff was good, and some stuff wasn't, but Hardcore was made here, and Dred/Cash was a banger.

Overall


Sorry, Xbrand, you guys are cool people, but I gotta keep it real. Other than the main this show didn't do it for me. But the main event was good, and to be fair, they were out of their element, and a boxing ring in Philly isn't a place that does XBrand justice.

2/5

I still enjoyed the match.


Masada won via pinfall 

2.75/5


Overall


This was a solid showing from We Love Wrestling and these guys are putting on a solid product right now. The second half of the show was phenomenal. The first 3 matches weren't bad but nothing memorable either.
