Daveportivo's Cultural Evaluation Facility

Believe it or not I'm actually going to watch the video wire before watching the show! That's right I'm going to be fully up to date. Although I prefer the PPV Previews they used to do rather than these ammatuer hour looking video wire. So with that in mind here's my recap of the recap!

-We start the video wire with Sweet and Sour Inc. including Johnny Fairplay blaming Albright for a loss and telling him to prove himself by taking a shot at Bobby Dempsey. Everybody else does but Albright turns on Sweet and Sour Inc. Absolutely killing all off them including powerbombing Hagadorn out of the ring through a table and giving Sara Del Ray a half nelson suplex. Sweeney and Fairplay made the narrow escape.

-We then go to The Age Of The Fall holding down Aries but Jimmy choses not to kill him for what he did to Lacey but he promises to make his life hell from now on.

-We then see a bloody Jay Briscoe with his brother Mark saying to Mark he can't do it without him and saying he gives up the world tag team titles until Mark is back in action.

-We then get a nervous Delirious asking Daizee Haze out to dinner, maybe Nobu? When Rhett Tittus comes out? I've never seen this guy before, he's dancing like a goofy ball. He appears to have charisma but looks very goofy. He says there infront of Ring Honor's biggest crowd ever. He says all Daizee is focusing on is Titus. His thrusts is a must, his shoulders are the size of boulders and he has a great back and a six pack. Daizee says she wants to leave. Delirious in his shirt and tie drops his flower and walks off solemnly as the crowd chant "You Got Cock Blocked". Delirious and Daizee were good but Titus was terrible.

-We then go to a special sit down interview with Dave Prazak and Austin Aries. Prazak asks Aries about Lacey and Jacobs. He said he didn't steal Lacey because she isn't a possesion, Lacey chose to be with him because Jimmy treated her like a possesion. Austin Aries then says Lacey wasn't convince by The Age Of The Fall, he says Jimmy isn't a leader he just talks about problems and never offers solutions. Dave asks if Jacobs has got into his head, Aries says there are mind games going both ways, Aries is the hunter not Jacobs. Dave then asks about Jay Briscoe leaving Aries alone with Age Of The Fall. He says Jay called him in the morning drunk, said he'd lost alot of blood and forgot he wasn't teaming with Mark and just went to the back to see Mark. Dave then asks about the vacated belts. He says him and Danielson will wind the tournement. When he asks Lacey about where she is, Aries says it doesn't matter he doesn't want anyone to talk about it. Jacobs comes from behind Prazak as he closes out the segment and as Austin's time is coming. Hit and miss segment but mostly hit.

-They then decide to show the controversal footage that cause Aries to storm out of the sit down interview. It's a clip from Ageofthefall.com and its lo res. They see Lacey coming out of a shop or gym. Jimmy walks out of the car and confronts Lacey, its shot from a handheld in the car. It cuts and then says to be continued. Apparently its Lacey's last moment in proffesional wrestling.
