I will probably do more of a recap tomorrow but I had a great time at this show tonight. I have to admit, they got me on that Dusty Finish in the match between Danny Limelight and Santana.
I was really pleased with the House of Glory wrestler signings I made tonight for the game (although there was at least one House of Glory name who I was hoping to talk to but unfortuately did not get a chance to do so.)

Glad to hear you had a fun time. Too bad I wasn't able to join you as originally planned. They did a Dusty finish for that match? Really?! That's kind of lame. What was the crowd's reaction? Dusty Rhodes overdid that finish to a detriment and I imagine anyone old enough to remember that has likely soured on it to the point of getting royally ticked off when they see it again. Great to hear you got some new names signed. Thanks again for everything you do for the game.🙂

Hmm, I think we'd all love it if Amazing Red was signed, but I could see him being the person you didn't get to speak to as well. Fingers crossed for Mane Event and I guess maybe given the name change since his last card, Mike Santana may have had to re-sign a form as well, which if he did would give us the chance to put him in an update poll for the final cycle! Glad you had a great time at the show, Vegas

Yeah, I had fun last night, I usually go to GCW when they are doing their Los Angeles shows (like last night) but I am glad I stayed in town this time to go to this show instead.
GCW always runs in Los Angeles every February, April, June, August, October, and December (every other month) but so far this year I have only been to the GCW in LA shows in February and June as the April GCW show was actually the same weekend TNA did two shows (including Revolution) in Las Vegas. But I am going to see GCW in Detroit in a few weekends anyway.
Although I was one of the first fans in the building, I did not get a great front row seat (in the corner of the ring) as I was busy talking to wrestlers and my friends in the bleachers until belltime. I wish I remembered to bring my hoodie last night to pick and save my seat, but I forgot it (sometimes in the Summer when it is well over 100 degress I don't automatically think about bringing my hoodie to put on a seat and save it.)
There were 4 HOG (House of Glory) vs FSW matches last night. If I am rememerbering correctly, I think HOG was introducing themselves to Las Vegas before they run a show here during Mania Weekend (the FSW Arena has been completely booked by companies that weekend but I will probably be at The Collective instead which I have been told won't be too faw away from the FSW Arena which itself is located 5 minutes or so from the airport.)
match results:
Bodhi Young Prodigy (BYP) defeated Dante King and David Richardson and Fox Valentine in a 4-way opening match. BYP was obviously going to win this match IMO but King and Fox show alot of potential.
Shogun defeated Thugnificent apologies to Thugnificent, but he was not going to defeat Shogun here
Kenny King defeated Jai Vidal and Richard Adonis. King is a FSW Hall of Famer. Vidal is a FSW Wall of Famer (along with Eli Drake, Killer Kross, Sefa Fatu, Chris Bey, Lacey Ryan, Alexander Hammerstone, and Reno Scum.) A Hall of Famer is a little different than a Wall of Famer, but I think some of the FSW Wall of Famers will eventually become FSW Hall of Famers too. Adonis is a regular in CZW (he also just debuted in MLW) and sometimes works FSW too.
In a title vs title match, FSW Heavyweight Champion Danny Limelight defeated HOG Heavyweight Champion Santana by DQ. Before the match started, Limelight insulted the fans and said he was not here to represent FSW but to send his fellow Puerto Rican Santana home without a title. A good match until the finish. The end came when Santana accidentally clotheslined the referee and knocked him out and a second referee had to run out and Santana then pinned Limelight to make it look like he was the new FSW Heavyweight Champion and the FSW Arena went nuts untlt the first referee woke up and DQd Santana for clotheslining him.
FSW Womens Champion Mazzerati defeated Diamond Virago Before this show started, Diamond Virago was out selling big diamond rings for about $10 (they were not real diamond rings obviously) and some of the fans were wearing those during the match in support of Virago.
The Mane Event (Jay Lyon and Midas Black) defeated The Unguided (Matt Vandagriff and Damian Drake) It was great to see the Mane Event (different from the Mane Event we have in the game) at the FSW Arena. Before the show started, I talked to Vandagriff a little about his work in NJPW STRONG.
FSW Mecca Grand Champion Chris Bey defeated Amazing Red I think this was the first time I have seen Amazing Red live since he made an appearance for PWG back in like 2011. This was a really good main event between 2 former X Divison Champions and Amazing Red is now another former X Division Champion who Bey has defeated in a match.
again, multiple signings for the game made last night, this was a fun event! I believe this fall,another fed (perhaps another fed that like FSW and HOG is also on Triller?) who has booked the FSW Arena during Mania Weekend is also doing a similar show here in Las Vegas and I will probably also go to that even if (like last night's show) it is the same night as GCW in Los Angeles.

Shogun sounds like a fun name. Looked like a fun little show and curious to see who will eventually hopefully make their way into the game.
