Once again Genku has been given a big ball to run with. I hope he will have the temperament to see this as a positive and ride it through to its conclusion. This week's Friday Night Fights could go down as a pivotal moment in arena history. I really liked the intensity of the stand-off, and the potential it presents moving forward. The Invasion keeps evolving as a concept. In its current streamlined form I think Genku's takeover should prove mutually beneficial.
I already see Jason_Voorhees & edge as big winners in The Invasion's change-up. Repositioning CCShadow & Scott-Howell as rivals was a natural way of extending The Invasion's role as one of the anchoring teams. JV & edge didn't win gold at Pre-Show 94: Blood Gold, but it was a great first attempt. I look forward to their story developing more before they get their next shot.
I'm very much looking forward to The Pacific Connection's next shot at the champs at Supercard 94: Red Reign! Their previous title bouts on May 5th and Pre-Show 93 were main event caliber competitions! I'm hoping to see them do it against this weekend. For their sake, a title change might be nice, but CCShadow & Scott-Howell are really having their moment. It won't be easy.
The announcement of ElJobber's imminent return at Supercard 94 will clearly ruffle a few feathers. I can't think of any better challenger for the Undisputed Championship at this time. It will have been two months since he went to war in an Iron Man Death Match at Ultimate Grand Prix VII, coming off of a very strong start to the year. He should be a very strong challenger and a great scalp if Damo can keep his momentum going!
"The Hitman" DECEPTION may be the big loser in Damo's title win. He felt poised for something much bigger after defeating Kron at UGP! I see him as a potential challenger down the line, possibly in July, but his loss to TonyTheTiger at Pre-Show 94 was very ill timed.
Big Steel Cage Fight this weekend! LordSkarlet is fighting on the edge, but with his reputation, it might just pay-off. Also very keen to see what Shinnokxz can do when he takes on Poasty! Be here for all the action and build up to this Sunday, June 4th for Supercard 94: Red Reign!
