A little bit of a slow and sloppy deathmatch. Eric Ryan is one of the best and Akira for me personally has his moments but this just had spots of greatness. The end was super sloppy and killed the match though.
2.5 / 5
A long bloody brawl between The Bev and Dale. A bit slower in moments but a really good match with a really hard hitting final section. The crowd also was eating this match up.
3.75 / 5
A tribute match to Chicagos own Markus Crane who passed away. An emotional match for fans and the wrestlers there for sure. NDC was great and continues to be one of the most underrated deathmatch guys. Not really a fan of The Carver but he stood his own here and took some good spots from NDC.
3 / 5
Tommy and Danny had a bloody brawl of a match. Not always the best looking spots but man men put their heart into it. Danny always bleeds and gives his all in a match.
3 / 5
A quick but insanely bloody and light tube filled match. These two brutes went to town on each other. Its always fun to see Shlak get a glass filled nonstop dose of violence.
3 / 5
Hoodfoot got cut pretty badly here and taped it up and continued. Tons of glass and some really hard looking hits and spots here. Hoodfoot is easily the best new deathmatch guy in the last year. Sadika too looks good and hopefully becomes less problematic and safer to others. This was a good match though.
3.5 / 5
Opening spot here was dumb and dangerous. Krule took another dangerous looking fall to the outside of the ring later on too. Honestly this match was purely to make Krule look like a giant monster. JWM took very little damage this match except the end and a few moments. Krule took a ton of tubes then got up and finished the match. Lackluster finale to the event somewhat.
2 / 5
