"Willow The Whisp vs. Surge:
They had a cool multiple Willow opening (25) to this.  The basic premise was that this match was going to be two out of three falls, with one fall being normal, one fall being a submissions match and one fall being No -DQ.  This was a cool concept although the submission section was a little more pedestrian, I was hoping to see some more shootstyle mat stuff from Willow, who had just returned from Battlearts (26), also Surge did his Megahurtz finisher in the first 8 minutes of the match and didn't get the pin.  This really diluted the cool finisher exchange at
the end of the third fall.  The match didn't really get rocking until the final fall (27) where these guys really let it loose, including my favorite spot of the night as Surge was layed on a table which was propped up on the guardrail and does a tope-con-hilo through the table leaving a big hole in the middle of the table.  They have a double pin ending then starting a fourth fall which Venom runs in and beats
everyone up.  They then have the big unmasking anyway with the emotion and the angles and stuff.  It was really cool because you could tell that most of the crowd didn't know that Willow The Whisp was Jeff Hardy.  Great garbagey match with a pretty cool storyline, kind of a tricked out WWF PPV main event.  I wish it had ended clean though. (PS)

I was hoping that they were going to do a whole ending with Matt injurying Willow on some crazy spot and then after unmasking him and finding out it was his brother, freaking out because he had just crippled him. But that was just me.(PR)

The multiple Willows deal had the scary moment where one of them did a baseball slide and accidently slid into a five year old.  I was scared until I noticed that the youngster seemed totally unfazed.  I'm with Schneider on the second fall.  The first problem I had was that they didn't really get over the stipulations of the fall until half way through it.  The main problem was that going that long on the mat for a
whole fall kinda killed the crowd for a while because to do a submission fall you have to build to it better than what they did- maybe they should have stood there and kick each other a whole bunch and then the submission could have popped out, instead of a slow progression mat wrestling that went into Southern pressure holds into what could have been submission holds.  I dunno.  The dynamics of the fall were all wrong for me to like it.  I don't blame the wrestlers, I blame the fact
that the pro-style selling of submissions as long, extended weardown holds for so long has killed any big pop you can get for anything other than the Texas Cloverleaf, Dragon Sleeper and the Scorpion Deathlock- so I figured it was going to be kinda plodding and American pro-style up to one of these finishers.  And it was.  I dunno.  I dig the fact that they tried it, but the place they were wrestling and the style that it commands doesn't make for very intriguing submission wrestling so we got this.  The third fall was great for the highspots and the ending nearfall sequence was totally insane and I dug it the most.  The ending was weak and they could have definately made this one fall no DQ and come away with a more focused match.  I really dug this match though despite its flaws because the ending was so intense.(DR)"
