QUICK NOTES

A really big, really good line-up here. Action Andretti in his first match after going #AllElite, you can bet he’ll win against Khash. Good to see Angelico and Chaos Project in action together, no idea if they’re Faces or what but maybe they’ll get a win since Serpentico has like 100 losses on his record. Julia Hart in action is good, and seeing all the Wingmen in action is fun. Avalon & Nemeth probably win the tag match but Bononi will lose to Absolute Ricky Starks as Ricky will be on his redemption run after losing to MJF.

And great to see they’re putting big names like Omega and Jade on here. Omega certainly wants to help give Shinno some shine, that’ll be a good one. And Jade will get win number 44 by denying Ellie a title match, but the real thing to watch in that will be if Red Velvet is still salty.

EDIT: Angelico, Serpentico & Luther not only got the win, they’re becoming a new trio! They are the Spanish Announce Project, or SAP. It seems Angelico has been helping on Spanish commentary and Luther also knows some Spanish, so that’s good enough for a team name. Not sure if this trio will get near the titles, but I’ve always liked Angelico so it’d be cool if this helped him get going again.
