Pretty impressed by his promo talking to Eddie Edwards.
Pretty realistic believable no-non sense Bret Hart-style promo. There has been good talkers to TNA but usually the promo style is a lot of screaming and yelling about this guy is better than the other guy(Bennett and Fat Hardy was a mess). So it was a nice change of pace to have someone sort of tell a story and say something that wasn't too face or too heel and make it work.
I wouldn't say it was great but it was good and it was different from what we usually hear from TNA and WWE wrestlers.
(also I kept thinking this is the first time since coming to TNA that Eddy is part of something somewhat interesting. Bear in mind that's one show)

I don't think Helms gets the credit he truly deserves. He has damn near always been over, I think Gregory Helms *tilts head* being the exception and he was injured around that time. He made it all work and I am glad to see him being used in a role like this.

I do agree that Helms is underrated, he was good in the ring too. His body language helps to

I am not anywhere near as big a fan of Helms as I used to be, but I don't really have any issue with him being in TNA at the moment.

Too distracted by Trevor Lee having the look on his face that says "I would rather be anywhere else but here in this ring". He did that for the entire thing.

I'm glad they're using someone who shouldn't be wrestling in 2016 in a non-wrestler role to get someone else over.

They could do a lot worse than signing Helms. He's a veteran, but a relatively young one given how green he was in WCW.
I'll always mark for him on some level because he was always my favourite in 3 Count, and that's one of my favourite gimmicks ever.
