The allies of Perez and Rhodes will be interesting to find out about. Loving the banter between Kid and Lynn. Well, the DDP money in the mouth angle sure looks familiar. LOL. Champion and Knapp look to be a good team.

Good show.

The Rhodes vs Perez angle is playing out well. Good build to Lynn / Kid vs Harlem Heat too.

One thing I might have changed was if a match is announced for the right to be Florida champion in August, Porteau getting a non title match would have made more sense to me. Or at least play up more what would happen in the event that Porteau had won the title in the main event, what that means for the announced Rhodes vs Perez title match.

I hope Vegas doesn't plan on wearing Hardy's ring jacket. He might look kind of funny in that at 12 sizes too small.

With Al Perez, depending on where you have some shows, he might get over as the face of the Hispanic community as Tampa and south of there have huge Latin communities.

Speaking of Al ... we have 2 champions until they meet? Why not just hold the belt up until their match? While it isn't that far off, something could happen to either of those champions before it takes place.

No Stunning Steve?

[Deleted]

Masked mystery baby faces? Interesting concept right there, color me curious.

Good show.

No Steve, no problem man maybe he's on the B SHOW this week? Or has that project been done away with?

Not too sure what to make of the Midnight Rider-like masked guys at the end there. I'm digging the program with Perez & Rhodes though. Missed my dose of Stunning Steve Austin this week though, for sure.

Liking what's being done with Lynn & the Kid. Harlem Heat could swoop in and pick up the scraps if they aren't careful. Also enjoying DDP with Vegas. Fun presentation of those guys thus far.

Looking forward to Awesome's debut. Hope he makes an impact.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not too sold on Lance Storm in this role. He just stands out with the area in general. I know he's your most consistent pet project for EVERY promotion, but Storm (by himself) just seems like an odd fit for Florida.
