Our loving correspondent, Blood, says, a terrible addition of velocity.

The opening was awful.

A train made short work of his opponent before his match at No Mercy.
Maffew GreggHOST
That's pretty much how it had to go.
Maffew GreggHOST
Matt Hardy versus Funaki was bad.
Maffew GreggHOST
Matt Hardy does have some issues, but it's Funaki we're talking about, who practically never wins.

For a tag team match against, I don't know, full tag teams.

Farouk.
Jamie StockerHOST
Now the interesting thing to note about Farouk here is that in all the proofs and all the artwork, he is spelt correctly.
FretzHOST
Tie and tie.
FretzHOST
Takama Chinoku, Funaki, Dick Togo, and Men's Tao defeated the Hardy Boys and Too Much.
FretzHOST
That's a face-and-heel tag team in here getting into the mix of things, which is strange.
FretzHOST
So I guess there was probably Ascension with the Hardys and Too Cool here.

Case LoweHOST
He is not any good at it.
Case LoweHOST
You know, I think the highlight of this match was KY Wakamatsu at ringside having a gun.
8 MINS LATER
Mike SpearsHOST
Yeah, and I think a lot of that is...
Mike SpearsHOST
You talked about how heavily things were towards the end of the year.
Mike SpearsHOST
I mean, as soon as Funaki and Michinoku join Kai and Tai Deluxe, and really after that handicap match that happens, it is...
Mike SpearsHOST
Essentially, every single show, you are getting a high-level Kaintai Deluxe versus Sekigun, at least trios match, if not Atomicos or Tenman.

Branded Outlaw Entertainment was supposed to have an Internet pay-per-view this Saturday in San Antonio.
Pat McNeillHOST
Alas, they did not due to technical difficulties, which means we all missed the opportunity to pay $10 to watch the main event of Funaki versus Paul Birchall.
Pat McNeillHOST
That's a bit of a shame.
Pat McNeillHOST
We'll have another edition of this Favorite of Features next week on the program.
