And the very end indeed sucked. I have desire to care about the ex-NBA guy. And they certainly didn't need to turn out the lights to introduce him.

As for the match, it wasn't my favorite on the card, but worked for me. All these guys really want to have matches with Suzuki. Especially guys like Joe and Danielson. In this case, Suzuki served his purpose as the transitional champion, got his fight in with Joe, and can move on.

I'll be all in for FTR vs. Red Dragon, before they inevitably have FTR win the titles back in May.
