GRAND ROYALE- 7/10. The stuff with Rollins and Ceasro at the beginning worked well. The rest of this was GREAT! They did an AMAZING job telling this story. I wanted Dalton to win SO BADLY by the end.
MIKE DALTON PROMO- good.
JASON JORDAN vs. ABRAHAM WASHINGTON- good extended squash. Washington's post-match promo was okay
FCW DIVAS TITLE MATCH: Audrey-Marie(c) vs. Raquel Diaz- 3.75/10. The ring work wasn't terrible and the match wasn't short (by Divas' match standards) but it just wasn't enjoyable as it felt it should be. Okay post-match promo by Diaz.
FLORIDA HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH: Leo Kruger(c) vs. Mike Dalton- 7.5/10. GREAT match. Really only a 7.25 in the ring, but I am giving it extra points for a great underdog babyface effort from Dalton. I really wish they would have held of on the Divas match until next week and given those five minutes to this match. I think this could have been a true breakout performance from Dalton.
