Favorite Match: The Iconic Cup gauntlet.

Favorite Moment: Cloud winning the big match! When I used a fan to help me hit the California Crush, like...I must have a pretty devoted fanbase. Sydney notching a much-needed win. 

Most Shocking Moment/Result: Megan retaining. Keelan did a great job on the promo page this week, but he was dealing with Cam on one side and new and improved Haruna on the other. The numbers game just didn't seem like it was on his side.

Who Had the Best/Worst Night: Best night, Cloud, myself (even though I almost bled out and died), and Andrea. I'll lump her in there because she had an absolutely stellar showing and comes out of this looking stellar. Her ceiling is high. Worst night, Revy and Daisy.

Who Stole the Show: Chelsea, Andrea, and Haruna. 

Rating/General Comments: 10/10. It was a pleasure to work on this show. I had high hopes for the first supershow of Cloud's tenure as HNIC of Empire and it more than exceeded my expectations. There was really a precedent to be set here and I think we knocked it out of the park. The setup of the main event was cool, shout outs to Cloud for thinking outside of the box, and it ensured that a lot of girls, regardless of if they got to the finals or not, had a chance to shine.

Favorite Match: The Iconic Cup. Aria vs Chelsea was a monster of a match but the meaning and the emotion behind the Iconic Cup gauntlet puts it ahead.

Favorite Moment: For me it was before the show even begun with that intro. Had to try not to cry in the library cried manly tears since

Most Shocking Moment/Result: I didn't really find any result or moment shocking. Reading Aria vs Chelsea, there was a moment or two where I absolutely believed the title was going to change hands; enough to be genuinely surprised in the end that Aria retained.

Who Had the Best/Worst Night: Best night: Cloud, Aria, Megan, Sydney. Don't think tonight was necessarily bad for anyone.

Who Stole the Show: The triple threat for the Specialists title and Andrea in the Iconic Cup.

Rating/General Comments: 10/10. Across the show, some amazing matches written and the show truly lived up to the significance behind it. It really sets itself up to be a consistent mainstay on the yearly schedule and be treated as a bigger event for the years to come. It's not the reason why we want to have it, but we can do something special every year for it.

Favorite Match: I'm going to stray from the beaten path and say the opener between Sakuya and Nicolette. How often does one get a "GET THAT BOOTY!" chant in a wrestling match? I was almost in tears after that. The entire show was great, but I'm going to go with the opener because it set the tone for the evening. 

Favorite Moment: Cloud holding the Iconic Cup surrounded by her friends, family and girlfriend in her hometown, keeping her promise to a friend/former rival. Can't get past that.

Most Shocking Result: I didn't really think there were that many shocking results, but I was a bit surprised that Nicolette beat Sakuya. I figured the JET vet would score the win in front of her mentor but I was wrong. 

Best Night: Cloud. Hands down. 

Worst Night: Crowe's Nest. The squad went 0-3 on the night and couldn't pick up a major victory. Going to be interesting going forward if we can regain some momentum and take the fight back to Empire's roster.

Who Stole the Show: Aria and Chelsea. That match....a work of art. 

General Comments:   (Since everyone does numbers, I'm doing stars, fuck it.) Great show, lively crowd for most of it, and a unique concept for the Iconic Cup that had an unforgettable ending. No match dragged on unnecessarily long and every match had a good (at least) story to it with fine pacing. Job well done to Cloudy and his writing team.

Fantastic show

Favorite Match: Chelsea vs. Aria was fucking brutal. I think on brutality alone, that wins my match of the night with the Gauntlet just trailing behind.


Favorite Moment: The intro to the whole event. Teared up seeing all that Brody love.


Most Shocking Moment/Result: Gonna shoot with you brother, I didn't think Sydney was winning. Commentated expecting to take that L. She hit the Automatic Midnight and as I was doing the count I was expecting the kick out. My doc froze with the (Ding! Ding! Ding!) off the screen for a second and someone called me a troll for waiting so long to post it (Was probably Oasis). Some people thought Sydney was winning from the get-go, but I sure wasn't.


Who Had the Best/Worst Night: Sydney, Megan (Thot), Aria, Cloud and Andrea. Worst for the Crowe's Nest, Daisy, Revy & Savannah.


Who Stole the Show: Andrea. What a fucking performance she had made it to the final two. A top challenger for the Women's World Title down the line.


Rating/General Comments: All the matches on this show were awesome. The promo's leading into this was awesome. The feel-good moments of this show were awesome. This show was awesome... awesome... awesome.

Favorite Match: As much as I want to say the Iconic Gauntlet, I have to say that Brooklyn Street Fight was the MOTN imo. 


Favorite Moment: Nas yelling at me about how Brooklyn lost its 'Harlem Card' after that 'Get that Booty' chat.



Most Shocking Moment/Result: For a second I thought Aria lost her title - and I'm the booker lol. Dan that match was good...


Who Had the Best/Worst Night: ME BITCHES! LMWDWNKQQWDQWOD *kicks a baby Dave Chappelle style*



Who Stole the Show: That guy who Aria used as a prop. That was me irl. *fourth wall breaks*



Rating/General Comments: 10/10 - Thanks to everyone who helped out and anyone who stayed up till 3am...like wow. You guys are awesome. Let's hope the next one is as good as this one!
