Man those annoucers are still horrible. I have no idea why they have to repeat the wrestlers named over and over. KETA RUSH! KETA RUSH! KETA RUSH!

Due to copyright issues with LU, Kobra Moon is going by Serpentine now.
Don't know why she isn't just going as Thunder Rosa.

Watch this week's for Maverick/Adrenaline (Diamante), at the very least.
Watch the main event on mute, commentary goes into Tessa Blanchard overshill mode yet again and it's awful. Otherwise, it's good, much longer than their usual five second mains, and actually ends clean for a change.
Tag match was fine, though it's hilarious that one of their much-hyped teams went out in the first round.
BHB/Faith sucked.

Didn't Barbi Hayden,Abilene Maverick,annouce her retirement from wrestling a few months ago? She did, but this was taped awhile back, and it was over a couple of days. So a couple of days of work to finish out her career, and get paid, would be a good deal. That main event was strange. It went longer than 5 minutes, and had a clean ending. I don't know how to react to that happening in WOW.

Liked all the matches but loved the main event. That was a helluva match that T4essa and Serpentine/Kobra Moon/Thunder Rosa put on. Can't wait to see what happens with this partnership between Jessie Jones and The Beverly Hills Babe/Amber O'Neal.

I don't know how to react to that happening in WOW. I actually gave up on watching full episodes of WOW after last week because of the booking. Hopefully the little I saw of the main event continues in order to pull me back in.

Not sure how much she's allowed to do on here, but Reyna Reyes is Gisele Shaw who regularly wrestles on the UK/European scene, and she's got really good now. She also did a recent short tour of Japan with Tokyo Joshi Pro and DDT.

WOW season 2 episode 2
Amber O'neil vs Faith the Lioness
Hmm Amber has never impressed me and never seen Faith before.
1.5 outta 5 ------------------------------------------------ Abilene Maverick AKA Barbi Hayden vs Adrenilene
Last I heard Barbi had retired from the ring. Adreilene I think is Diamante from TNA.
Barbi is decent and I am a bit surprised no bigger group picked her up.
OK when did it become standard that any match on TV someone has to do a canadian destroyer?
2 outta 5 ----------------------------------------------------- Siren/Holidead vs Steffie Slays/Keta Rush(bullybusters)
This sucks,should be a great match. But it was way way too short.
2 outta 5 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Serpentine AKA Kobra Moon AKA Thunder Rosa vs Tessa Blanchard
This should be good. Tessa is damn good and so is Rosa.
DAMN that was a great match
4 outta 5 --------------------------------- show 2.3 outta 5

I’m just glad they finally had a main event with some time, and it helped that it was my two favorite wrestlers in the company.

So Havok and Kickstart Katie are a team, which makes sense since Havok is with Sami Callihan and Hazard is with Jake Crist. It looks like someone put Havok in the dryer and she shrunk.

That's like the time Trent Barreta and Fandango teamed up on Superstars with Matt Striker pointing out that their girlfriends (AJ Lee and Kaitlyn at the time) were best friends.

IMO, MOTN belongs to Temptress/Reyes. Reyes is still rough around the edges, but put on a good show.
Chella and Sassy Massie made for an interesting team. The Disciplinarian bombed out as usual, and it'll be interesting to see if this plays into Abilene's inevitable writing out.
Main ended screwy as usual, but I'm liking that they finally seem to be embracing the idea of main events with proper length to them.
If Princess Aussie's getting repackaged and added to the Siren/Holidead grouping, I'm all for it. That character's flat, there's several who do the inspirational thing better.
Though Krampus/Krumpus/Krumpas (make up your mind McLane!) still sucks, at least her look has improved. Better costuming does wonders. Tagging her with Serpentine (since they have the same manager and all) would be a good idea, I think. A speed/power pairing would most certainly help hide her weaknesses.
And can we not have an opening segment devoted to booking the main event when the main event's already being advertised beforehand? It's an unnecessary waste of time. Just show the graphics and kick us to the first match.

I’ve never seen a company this bad at booking main events. Another main event that didn’t even hit 5 minutes bell-to-bell.
Krumpus improved her look at least.
Gisele Shaw is really good. I know she had a tryout for NXT UK recently. Wouldn’t be surprised to see her signed sooner than later.

You have three guesses as to how tonight's show ended.
The first two don't count.

That Aussie vignette was hammed up like crazy, but if that indeed does mean she's getting repackaged and added to Siren/Holidead, she can ham it up all she likes.
Why can't we go a main without f***ery anymore? I knew shit was going to happen, I kept looking at the clock and could tell the exact moment it was going to happen, and I had an idea of how it was going down by commentary suddenly going into Tessa Blanchard overshill mode yet again.
Speaking of Blanchard, at least we had context for Serpentine's title shot. What the holy hell has Reyna Reyes done to get a title shot? Won one match, much like Tessa herself? Lame. Stop dodging the Beast.
A little bait and switch pulled for the Psycho Sisters match, a vignette last week actually promised us Mezmeriah in that match. I mean, I'm happy to see them, but don't make that a habit, nobody likes bait and switch. And Fire's an idiot for not bringing backup. Did we really need the post-match bit with Adrenaline when they were already confirmed to be in the tag tournament? WOW really likes to waste time booking stuff in-ring that they've already announced.
Points for Chantilly Chella not being stupid like Fire was, seeing what was going to happen if she went solo against Siren/Holidead, and going to get Sassy Massy.
Oh, and I usually ignore Jessie Jones, but I appreciate that they seem to be trying to temper her act a bit with the addition of Amber O'Neal. Also got to laugh at Lana being embarrassed. Next time you trade in for a younger model, Lana, try to get one that's actually going to win matches for you. Faith isn't that good.
