Next week we only have two matches, if it's still an hour, that means POSSIBLY we'll have some thrown together matchups? Maybe the Round 1 Losers get a chance to shine a little more as consolation? I'd really like that because it also maybe gives them more of a look to possibly be signed. You won't hear me complaining if we do. But Metallik/Tajiri and Ibushi/Alexander are gonna tear the roof off, and I can't wait to see more CWC next week!! I think that they'll just stick to the 2 matches in an hour, they can give the matches a bit more time and fill the rest of the program up with more in depth look at each person, interviews, and reactions. I am thinking that we'll get some matches from some of the losers for the final, unless we're getting the semi-finals as well on that night since it's a bit much to have a 1 match, 2 hour show. I would love to see some of the losers get consolation matches, though they do seem to be getting them on NXT too
If I hear Da Mack's theme again I may just mark out hard But I think others could benefit from a second match, Davari, Lee, Aichner, Mendoza and Ali come to immediate mind... Mendoza vs Ali would be a hell of a match I feel, maybe the two best that didn't make it out of round one (Though Aichner is close in that regard)

Rewatched the Dar/Gurv match.
I just don't know. In other clunker matches in the tourney you could easily see something in atleast one of the guys. This one? Both guys looked like absolute trash and Dar is one of the 'signed before the tourney' guys? Why exactly? Sloppy, Shitty gear, his kneebar was an absolute joke.
Is it too late to replace him with one of the better eliminated guys? Ali, Daivari, even Dux.

Good to see Hideo back. I like the running knee finisher but I wonder about the G2S he was teasing before he was out injured... is that just being dropped I actually liked the end of that Tag team promo... I did laugh at "I'm taking this too." "DON'T TAKE THE BELL!" Mojo with the Pounce! And the ref starts counting for no reason... because Mojo beating the jobber would matter in this instance? I also liked the back and forth attack of Joe attacking Mojo, who attacked Joe, who attacked Mojo ... is the Ice Cream truck coming? that's what the opening to Aliyah's music made me think... and here comes Asuka to murder her. hmm looks like Asuka has a new robe I'm not sure if I like this one better than the old one with Bayley talking about being changed are we going to see the Darkside of Hugamania? Asuka setting up the chair and telling Bayley to sit on the ramp was awesome Nice Rope assisted Octopus Asuka is doing some good Heel work in this match, I really liked the one knee pin. So that weird promo was for Ember Moon, always nice to see some vignettes. GLORIOUS! Is a damned amazing song. BOBBY ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Bobby not even getting the traditional 1-2 month face run that Aries and Joe got. Bobby can't help that he's custom made... ROO! Also I can't help but think this character would work better if he wasn't going by Bobby... But Roode is money TM61's music really needs to be reworked... but I Guess when they actually get more of a character that can come with it.... unless they get sent up to the main roster to flounder SAY YEAH! I love the Revival. Flying nothing but it seems Dash realized this was a stupid plan and catches the feet whenever I see a O'conner roll from the corner I always think Chaos theory and am sad when it's not DDT OUTTA NOWHERE! and once again we must Affirmitavely Convey! Top guy stuff. Ole! Aging well! I love this Garg-ampa promo hehe YOU'RE NERDS! UNACCEPTABLE!

Dar is one of the 'signed before the tourney' guys? Why exactly? So WWE can beat that "WWE's first ever Israeli-born superstar" line into the ground.

Noam Dar SUUUUUUUUCKS. Big whiffer on the two most hyped european guys for me. I'm really looking for ZSJ to rebound. Eventually. I heard from one of his fans that his match in the next round with Gulak wasn't all that so we'll see. Dar shouldn't be signed based on that performer so he's fortunate to get another chance. It's absolutely true that the no-name talent have often impressed more. Ciampa, by design, impressed more than Gargano.

If Dar stays this bad it's gonna really make break my heart if Da Mack, Aichner, Ali, Davari, Gallagher and Mendoza don't get signed and he does...

I've actually seen Dar a few times before... and he's usually much better than that.
could have been an off night or not clicking with his opponent... but I don't expect his next round match to be much better due to who he's up against.

That Gargano/Ciampa match was great. Loved it. Ciampa is going to be a big deal.

Went ahead and watched some Bollywood Boyz matches outside of the CWC, trying to understand the hype. I seriously don't get it. Hope they don't get signed until they get a bit more polish and experience.

I really thought Roode's catchphrase was gonna be "From my Watch to my Crotch I'm A Star Baby!" now I'm sad that it isn't.

Look more like a heel hook than anything, and there wasn't even an attempt to apply pressure, just humped Gurv's leg. Honestly, it's sad that Sabre and Dar have been so shitty, seeing as they came so hyped by people on here and they're fixtures of the British indy scene. Jack Gallagher though, he delivered perfectly. Much more interested in him. Oh, and Dar's gear is horrible. It looks like a 90's screensaver.

They were just showing him doing better, with a better opponent. There is nothing wrong with giving people more to work with here and maybe share a bit of fandom.

I haven't read through this topic yet because I still have to watch this week's NXT. Is there an official CWC topic somewhere? I freaking love the CWC and I got a lot of things I want to say about that.

I think the reason why I don't click with Sabre always is why I like Gallagher. Sabre is way too slick with everything he does, but doesn't get bullied around enough to make me care about it. I loved Gallagher because he was just as slick but it came in moments that added to the match. It wasn't just slickness for the sake of it.
Not saying Sabre sucks either. I've seen matches that I've thought were incredible when he isn't so into himself.
