Jerome’s thoughts: Overall the show this week was much better than last week. Tonight’s show flowed really well. The action was great and it didn’t feel like a glorified episode of Dark. The stories for the Title Eliminator were told well and have me more excited than I expected. Commentary tonight was good. However, Excalibur you need to slow down! You talk way to fast!
