Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

Evolve announced that they'll be running another show in Melrose on December 11th if you didn't go to 65.

Hopefully Beyond runs a matinee as well again, that was a pretty good combo.

This match could probably give Vader a triple heart attack.

based on his tweets, he's already had a stroke.

E: what was the gate at the Evolve shows?

For 65, all the reserved seating sold out, general admission was probably 60% full. Probably about 200-250 ish attended.

As a venue note for Melrose what they call bleachers is actually a full padded leather chair with a shared armrest, so it might be better than the bolted together folding chairs they set up for reserved unless you want to watch people do suicide dives right in front of you.

There's also a pretty good wood fired Neopolitan pizza place around back of across from the Shaws

Adam Cole is out of the BOLA tournament. Cedric Alexander is taking his place.

Jesus, I fall asleep for like 90 minutes...

Looks like all we're missing is the pre-intermission tag on Night 1 now.

Night 1:

Matt Sydal vs. John Hennigan
Marty Scurll vs. Pentagon Jr.
Ricochet vs. Jeff Cobb
Fenix vs. Will Ospreay
Tommy End vs. Zack Sabre Jr.
Chris Hero vs. Jushin Liger
Dalton Castle and the Boys vs. The Young Bucks and Adam Cole

Night 2:

Mark Andrews vs. Pete Dunne
Dalton Castle vs. Jack Gallagher
Cedric Alexander vs. Mark Haskins
Pentagon Jr. and Fenix vs. Tommy End and Chris Hero
Kamaitachi vs. Trevor Lee
Cody Rhodes vs. Sami Callihan
Matt Riddle vs. Kyle O'Reilly
Ricochet, Matt Sydal, and Will Ospreay vs. the Young Bucks and Adam Cole

Honestly, I love Dalton Castle but considering all the talent in the building for the weekend putting him and his valets in one of the trios matches seems like kind of a waste.

The_Rob posted:

They didn't say he's pulling out, although this might tip the outcome of his match with Tommy now.

Looking at those matches and I think Dunne makes the most sense in the Marty Scurll 'newcomer to go surprisingly deep in the tournament' role this time. I think Cody might advance too but I'm not as certain on that because PWG books Callihan fairly strong for a midcard guy.

Just realized that this is going to be a completely comical number of dudes trying to sell t-shirts in the ring before the show/at intermission now.

Beef Jerky Robot posted:

Zack could still lose that match, especially if somebody turns and starts loving with him throughout the weekend like Roddy did to Kyle in 2014. Let me have this, drat it.

Cobb over Riddle

O’Reilly over End

Scurll over Gallagher

Hennigan over Lee

Kamaitachi over Fenix

Pentagon over Callihan

Castle over Sabre

Sydal over Haskins

Ospreay over Dunne

Ricochet over Andrews

Do they take ideas from the staff when booking cards? I imagine BOLA in particular is so complicated politically that it would be difficult.

Yup, so he's either leaving Chikara in the lurch or the CWC team is losing early, because his first round BOLA match isn't until Saturday so he could fly in then.

Just checked and Chikara posted this after PWG's announcement:

https://twitter.com/CHIKARApro/status/755945562508238848

So he's working both shows, somehow. Either losing early in Chikara and working Saturday and Sunday in PWG or losing early in BOLA and missing the big multi-man tags on N3.

It's mostly Super Dragon solo. Although he might take into account a wrestlers request for a specific match.

I only created that card because I was procrastinating at work. I wish I hadn't because now I'm disappointed with what we are getting. My BOLA would have been perfect.

I doubt both of Gulak's teams are gonna win their first round matches in KOT, but his Ant team has him as the Terminator so I could see Cedric doing Night 3.
