SuperCard of Honor stamps a successful ROH return.

You could tell Tony Khan's booking style was all over this pay-per-view. He definitely didn't deter away much from the booking that was already in place but the structure of the card and the extra names that he brought on board felt special and made a big difference overall.

The Briscoes and FTR were a dream match fulfilled from final battle that paid off. The addition of Tully Blanchard enterprises creating a faction of Brian Cage, Kaun and crew.

Chavo Guerrero accompanying Bandito out to the ring we're welcome additions to the Ring of Honor when they had quirky and interesting and formidable managers like Truth Martini and Prince Nana.

Restarting the Jonathan Gresham j lethal feud and Jay lethal turning heel was a nice move but what was overwhelming was seeing Samoa Joe come back to Ring of Honor and confront Lethal. I understand and appreciate that some Ring of Honor story lines might roll into aew programming while Ring of Honor finds its own home. I would like to see two separate entities down the line with very little crossover in the future.

NXT Stand and Deliver

NXT Stand and Deliver delivered a decent card. But I still don't see any bonafide WWE superstars to be yet. Bron and Mandy probably but I see many future midcarders filling spots of the upcoming future endeavored. Grayson Waller, LA Knight have a chance to breakout if given the opportunity. Ciampa is now enhancing future talent in D'Angelo, a one dimensional caricature. Dolph Ziggler gets another win on Breaker?
