Kenzie Paige vs. Max The Impaler

[8.0] "I really enjoyed Kenzie's selling in this one. She sold being out on her feet better tan just about anyone. This wasn't a competitive match, but it was very entertaining to watch Max just maul her."

[6.0] "So they just decided not to edit out the wardrobe malfunction from the replays I guess. Ok then. Match story was fine and no frills - goliath vs the little guy, but the match was one sided to the point that I didn't find it very engaging. And the ending was flat."

[8.0] "I really loved this match. I think too many people are getting caught up in the technical abilities of the performers. This match told a classic story, one that's very successful, in a modern time where I feel like it's not appreciated any more. Not enough "moves" for most people. I was entertained the ENTIRE time. The story was obvious. What more do you want from a match?"

[6.0] "Good match. Classic underdog, "David vs Goliath" story going here. Page looked good in defeat here possibly justifying her eventual World Title win. It seems like they may be setting up a Horsemen or in this case Horsewomen angle with Pretty Empowered ultimately capturing both the World Women's and World Women's Tag Titles on this night."

[7.0] "This was a good example of 'less is more' - it was an underdog babyface vs. monster heel challenger, but there were was no unnecessary filler for the sake of it, instead it told a simple story in an effective way. Impaler was obviously the star, but Paige's selling was really on point."

[6.0] "It was OK, and that's high praise for Kenzie because Max is still pretty limited. I will say that Max is getting better and the strikes look more "grizzly-like" than clumsy now. Still, Kenzie was doing most of the movement in this match and had the handicap of switching away from her well-established heel character to play plucky babyface. (With some people in the NWA it wouldn't even be clear, but Kenzie used none of the old school cheating heel spots that she uses when she's the villain of the piece, )They worked a solid underdog vs. monster bout and while I didn't love the finish, the concern was more about what comes next than anything broken in the match."
