That's some Russell Wilson esque efficiency from Zicky Dice - absorbing all of Caleb Konley's offence for 5 minutes and then just hitting the Shake Rattle and Roll for the win. He's going to make an OUTLANDISH TV champion.

I knew I wouldn't be able to watch the show live this evening. Still wanted to start a party thread just in case anybody else wanted to chime in but couldn't find the time. Good job holding the fort down @admin . This completely unplanned alternating thing we have going on is working out well. Only read the first post to avoid spoilers. As best I can remember the unappealing bout of Caleb Konley vs. Zicky Dice (boo!) is the only match announced ahead of time this week. Still, you know I'm hyped. Even more so after seeing the intriguing show title (it's gotta be Jeff Jarrett this time!). Without further ado it's time to fall.... Into The Fire!

Aldis, T. Storm & Kamille are on the Hard Times poster. Interesting. No twitter stuff this week. We're getting straight to business. Sure The Champ would approve. Loved the opening video. I can't imagine another feud going today that is better than Aldis/Tim. Ricky getting a lot of time in the video as well. I figured we were getting an Aldis/Morton match at some point. Might that headline Hard Times?

Love Mama Storm's baby boy putting over the TV Title. More open invitation TV Title tournament spots? Where'd that come from? I want to see a bracket. Also love how the crowd hates Aldis now.

Forget about the third man. I want to know what Anastasia Fletcher's deal is. Trevor is a surprisingly good white meat babyface promo. Dig that one Dawson still selling his Wild Cards-induced hand injury from a few weeks back. Anastasia picks Dawson vs. Dawson and Trevor vs. Latimer as future TV Title Tournament Matches.
Time for Konley vs. Zicky, which is to this tournament what Bob Holly vs. Roadie was to the 1995 KOTR.

Zicky wins. Boo! Nice little match though. Caleb is honestly one of their better in ring guys. He reminds me a little of a young AJ Styles. Unfortunately I looked him up a few weeks back. Caleb Konely is 36. That means this is probably it for him. He will likely never get any bigger than being a JTTS on NWA Powerrr. Zicky is so Eric Embry with tattoos. Crowd gives him that Aron Stevens heat. I liked that bearhug into Northern Lights he did. Maybe I've been too hard on The Diceman....

Like them putting Allysin Kay on commentary for the upcoming ODB/Rosa match. Thunder Rosa hailing from "The Graveyards of Tijuana Mexico" is one of the better hometowns to come down the pike in a while.

Love that fan dressed like Aldis in the front row.
ODB/Rosa ruled. Easily the best women's match in Powerrr history. Also one of the best matches in Powerrr history, period. And here I was expecting a messy styles clash. They really laid the shots in and the right woman went over. Crowd was into both women but leaned a little in favor of Thunder Rosa.

Typically great promo by The Champ as he sets the stage for basically everything. Very reminiscent of an 80s Flair studio promo, actually.
One thing I wish NWA would do is announce the next week's matches in advance. It would be easy to do. These shows are pre-taped. This week had unadvertised Rosa/ODB and Aldis/Starks matches. Those are big matches! Announce them ahead of time. Build that hype.

Quickie NWA merchandise commerical. Good idea. But should have been done a long time ago. I'll have to get some NWA merch. Just waiting for the right thing to come along.
Aldis vs. Starks time.

Aldis vs. Starks was another good match. We're 3 for 3 match-wise thus far, making this the best in ring episode in Powerrr history. It was a very "Flair gives an up and comer the rub" kind of match. The 6:05 time limit works wonders. Starks did last a little too long in the Cloverleaf for my liking though.
Business picks up even more when Ricky Morton comes out.
Aldis leaves this an even bigger heel than he came in.
Everything about this was so gloriously 1980s NWA. We're 4 for 4 in Powerrr episodes since the PPV. They're on a big time hot streak.

The Wild Cards appear to be sitting out the triple threat tag team main event. Shades of Aldis from last week! Good storytelling. Let the heels be heels.
