Another solid show with a hell of a lot of talent. I think Rance is coming across just nicely, you've been working on his well in the last couple of matches. The Canadian connection is working well for you in the main event. Bobby Roode and Petey Williams are amazing talents so its good that you are using them so well. Roode really did a number on Williams. It would definately be good to see Roode Vs. Williams for the heavyweight title.

btw lol I also enjoyed the triple threat tag team match where the Young Gunnz won by virtue of a count out lol!

Keep up the good work man! I haven't really read that many MLW diaries before but this one is going really well!

I loved the backstory, great writing. Got me into the diary from the get go.

With many, I felt that the start of the diary was too heavily RoH,TNA influenced, however I don't see how to avoid that and get the initial impact you want. You've seperated nicely as the diary has progressed though, and when you finally settle on YOUR direction, the roster will reflect it.

YOUR direction. That seems to be the biggest issue you have. The booking has been on/off (in part due to EWR raping you) as has the flow of the diary. I can't see a solid direction that you're trying to establish. A fed without a direction won't get far. Decide where YOU want to go, and f*&( the results you get as long as the direction you're going in is the one you want.

Overall, this isn't bad. The only thing I'd really like to see, is for you to choose a handful of talent that is YOURS and YOURS alone, meaning PUSH THEM. Sure, it's fun to see wrestlefests and spotfests, but this is a wrestling promotion, it needs to have a core of wrestlers.

I'll be following.

I know a little about MLW and how it was, but you seem to have mixed a lot of indie into it so I cant really comment on what's being booked, however I like it. Your lay-out is easy to follow even though some details are missing like Thetruth said, but your shows are solid so I look forward to seeing more.

Not too much to say about the big event.

Overall, you did a nice job with it, and the results are fine. My only gripe, is that I'd have rather seen Roode walk out as the champion. To me, going that route just feels like it would have offered more for you to do with storylines and talent involved. With Steen as champ, to me there really only seems to be one direction.

Aside from that, I liked the card, and the wrestling was good. The matches were booked better than I thought they'd be too. Nice job.

Hey dude,

First off overall the show was pretty decent. Had some solid matches and good build up with everything set up in the right way.

Good to see Romeo and Co get the tag team championship belts. I very happy with that and I was also happy to see the best of 5 series go on for one more match. That's also been very well booked.

Jacobs/Whitmer storyline is definately no way near finished right? I am looking forward to see how far you can with that. I am sure you can get a pretty heavy match out of the two of them! BUT.....

I swear to you, as the show went on, I was more and more confident that Roode was going to go out champion, but what!!!! was I in for a suprise. Steen also went over cleanly! geez. You must really rate this guy. The only thing I've seen from him is in CZW and I guess the reason you made him champ partly is get over a guy that wasn't hyped up by another brand? An all canadian main event too!

Like I said, overall man, I really enjoyed the show, I just can't get over that main event.
