Smokey: So, i want to give the IWA Faithful something to look forward to, so here are some tidbits for the next show. First, we will see both matches that lucky fans got to pick, we will see Kyojin go 1 on 1 with Mike Hawk for what I believe is that first time. We will see Sagittarius Blue go 1 on 1 with Brock Edwards. We will see Shaz defend his World title against Oscar Laymen. And we will see two big fatal fourway matches. Rob Rage vs AJ Dixon vs KJ Punk vs Darius, and to determine the #1 contender for the Vanity Championship, we will see Sugar vs Spice vs Pisces Pink vs the debuting Juno Mercury!


So far two have given feedback, I hope more do when I get back on tomorrow. I'm keeping track of who does and who doesn't, so please do!

Best Match: The main event... loved seeing Shaz under the gun.
Best Promo: Ace Note/Domino - I loved how Ace brought out how they are new and need to establish themselves, and I like Domino's attempt to back out... very believable and involved.
Best Piece of Booking: The confrontation of the Bombshells. What can I say - I'm a sucker for a good catfight lol... plenty of ammo for some serious fireworks IMO.
Best Debut(When Applicable): N/A
Any Piece of Booking You Didn't Like: Didn't see any.
Any Matches and/or Promos That Could've Been Improved: Can't think of any offhand.
Any Other Positives: Love the way this builds towards DFI. Plus the announcements for the show changes and upcoming draft really caught my attention.
Any Other Constructive Criticism: Keep bringing the heat! Personally, I wanna see what happens when Black Blooded REALLY turn up the pressure on Damaged Goods in the near future...
Overall Show Grade: A-

Best Match: Shaz vs. Dixon. Darn you Shaz and your dirty tricks!
Best Promo: Pamich & Draymen were very good, definitely underrated.
Best Piece of Booking: Announcing a draft and introducing Friday Night Frenzy
Best Debut(When Applicable): Juno Mercury
Any Piece of Booking You Didn't Like: A lack of Kyojin and Mr. Smyth interface.
Any Matches and/or Promos That Could've Been Improved: Always find K2Jelly's promos' formats to be weird because they aren't like all the other. The promos are great, they just look weird in all the other stuff.
Any Other Positives: Good stuff from everyone.
Any Other Constructive Criticism: Nope.
Overall Show Grade: B+

thanks for the feedback guys! Hopefully I'll see more in the morning!

Best Match: IWA Championship Match; though it should've closed out the show IMO

Best Promo: I'm going with myself and Krysys as Slayde and Elric. Not for selfish reasons but because it was a promo we felt would set up the match between us nicely at DFI and it did. The lack of recognition is bothering to a degree since when announcing that a 3 Stages of Hell match will happen, it's usually one of the more talked about things but so far.....it's just disappointing that no one (aside from Eddie, who I saw commented on it) cares to mention it. Makes the hard work and effort one puts into a promo and a feud respectively just kinda feel worthless but it is what it is and we'll continue to build this feud so that the match is worth it at the end.

Best Piece of Booking: Smokey announcing the draft and new show.

Best Debut(When Applicable): Juno Mercury; Glad to see AshleyPunk take up an interest in fedding outside the WWE fed and recently TWE.

Any Piece of Booking You Didn't Like: The styling of the show really. I dont know why but it makes me at times not want to read the shows since it looks so plain (though it's colored). I'm more used to things on how JBW and the WWE style their shows, bolding the speech and using italics for the actions that when I don't see it, it's just unappealing to the eyes.

Any Matches and/or Promos That Could've Been Improved: The Kyo/Smyth segment. Swerve or not, to see one the premiere feuds in IWA right now not put a promo on display as to why it's been put to that level (at least by me) was just awful booking.

Any Other Positives: A lot great promos including the CAR one standing out the most. I like the interaction between Dixon and Van as well.

Any Other Constructive Criticism: None that I haven't touched on already.

Overall Show Grade: B+

Now that you mention this, (I'd probably consider this more of a constructive criticism than a piece of booking by the way) I probably don't pay as much attention while I'm reading these shows as I do when reading ones some other feds put out. Hence why I miss some peoples great promos and my feedback isn't so helpful. This is probably why I can't get into reading it as much, it doesn't appeal to the eyes as well.

It's part of the booking to present the shows out this way; it falls under constructive criticism yes but really when you see this > Any Other Constructive Criticism: < it means somewhere along the way you had to give out some form of constructive criticism before reaching that specific category and I think that is really the only place to do so.

Either way, that is not the main point i was making. It isn't really important what category it falls under, I simply felt that it wasn't a part of booking. You think it does, so that's where you put it. Not something that really needs to be argued about.

No arguing was made just stating once again that when I see this > Any Other Constructive Criticism: < it means somewhere along the way you had to give out some form of constructive criticism before reaching that specific category. Since all the categories really fall under what was done as the best, the only area to really show any dislike for something related to the show (including how it's presented) can really only fall in this category: Any Piece of Booking You Didn't Like. That's why I put it there
