Talk about a case of deja vu! This weekend's Grand Slam [Doubles] ended the same way as the 2017 Summer Grand Slam with DECEPTION in the Runners-Up position! The New Generation came up short in a great match against "The Pacific Connection" Oozaru & Banging! A top quality duo tournament all around, but a reversal of the result I thought we were going see!
The tournament win finally gets The Pacific Connection a deserved place in the Top 10 Duos, but it's created a difficult lie for the Duo Division Championship. I'm not sure this alone can justify another match with CCShadow & Scott-Howell so soon. I'm also not convinced The New Generation are positioned to step right into that spot. It's a real conundrum and it could mean the Duo Division titles skip this year's Night of Champions!
The Undisputed Championship picture isn't any more specific, but at least we know the parameters by which it will be decided! The annual Night of Champions Battle Royal is an interesting tradition and I'm glad it'll remain in tact, despite Genku's delusions of grandeur. As much as Genku may've overstepped the mark by declaring himself #1 contender at the 2017 Summer Grand Slam, I'm not totally convinced he needed to be kept out of the Battle Royal. I wouldn't be surprised if this only fuels the fire of his conspiratorial rants - and his hatred for Chairman Mick!
A lot to look forward to this month! I'm very intrigued to see if United: Mime can follow through with his goal to break the record for most consecutive KFL Championship defenses! He's been rock solid since winning at Ultimate Grand Prix. A great stalwart of the arena! That goes down later today, so be sure to keep your eyes out for MNG results!
