Overall, not a bad show at all. The Max/MVP match was top notch.
However, someone's gotta do something to get this Rockland crowd into the show. I mean, most of them were like Sens fans in Scotiabank... sitting on their hands. You could hear a pin drop many times each match. I don't get it. I like to get into the matches myself, but, hell... when hardly anyone else is, it drains the fuck out of us. Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed this show, but we would have had more fun if other people were getting involved. We almost seemed like the odd men out by yelling at these guys.
Pat... you really gotta work on getting someone with more energy announcing the matches. Dude is too monotone. In addition, at the start of the show, no music or anything... just walking into the ring and announcing the first match seemed really, really strange. CSE needs some theme music, dude... something that says that the show is going to start, even before anyone notices the announcer getting into the ring. I honestly, think 2 seemingly minor things could make a huge difference in getting the fans into the matches and the show overall.
As per the previous show, the audio/theme songs of each wrestler needs to be podded down/faded down once the wreslter has arrived or left....not stopped cold. It caused some of us to giggle and not stay involved in the show.
My wife was as always, LOUD. The dudes beside us were trying to quiet her down and I was like "Well, at least she's having fun and getting into the show." I thought wrestlers needed boisterous funs like us to react off of. It also sounds much better on tape that way.
One question....aside from these boards and facebook, does CSE advertise anywhere in Ottawa or outside of Rockland?
I don't mean to be critical in a negative way. I just see a helluva lot of potential with CSE.
