the fact that most men vs women matches look silly? I really enjoy Tessa but she's at least 8 inches shorter and 100 pounds lighter. Totally agree. I thought Rey vs Batista (& similar David v Goliath matches) are ridiculous and I love the smaller wrestlers. Tessa is dope, but C’Mon! |

I think I read that Eli Drake is refusing to do this intergender match against Tessa Blanchard? He tweeted that, yes. Not sure if it's a work or if he really doesn't want to?! Tessa can definitely hang, so not sure why it would matter to Drake? Ego? Pretty sure it's a work. I mean I would hope management runs by matches to their talent and especially any special match like this. Eli tackled hardcore and now it looks like intergender matches. As far as size difference I would prefer intergender matches be between people close to the same size. That being said Rey Mysterio beat larger opponents so if wrestling can do that in male vs male why not male vs female. If Eli is playing his character as old school then he should try wrestling Tessa so no need for the big hits and what not. I'm sure the match will not be smooth but that hasn't stopped some man vs man matches happening. To me Eli vs Tessa is better than say Eli vs Grado simply from a story telling point of view. |

Wow somehow I missed that the main event tag match between Lucha Bros and RVD & Sabu is now an Extreme Death Match.
Also just added to UX are Dante Fox and Pat Buck.
This card keeps getting better and better.

With the "spit and tape" comment, allow me to give one of the smartest home improvement tips I've learned... If it's supposed to move and doesn't, use WD-40. If it's supposed to not move but does, use duct tape. Saved me thousands of dollars. Could probably save Sabu some bucks too  |

Could be a fun show. I'll be watching wrestling in New Jersey at that time, but I will be at AIW in Jersey City. Just got my ticket today!

At least with matches involving Rey, he relies on his speed, quickness, agility, etc. It seems like so many of these intergender matches feature the women picking up MUCH larger men and slamming them around. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't recall Mysterio gorilla pressing Batista as Maria Manic recently did to Monsta Mack. |

Really solid show. Enjoyable matches. The Monster Ball was pretty sweet. The main event was good considering the situation. Just as shame the vets are so old and past their prime.
