Location: London, England
February 2, 2012 ( Taped: January 28th)
Commentators:Mike Tenay & Taz
Editor’s Notes (Nikhil Kalhan): I brought tickets for the event, I was about 8 rows from the front. I had the chance to meet MattMorgan,Crimson,Christopher Daniels, Kazarian, Kurt Angle,Earl Hebner and Dixie Carter. I shook the hands of Hulk Hogan but theywere rushing me as a result my photo with him was ruined by the security man.The atmosphere was amazing I thought, we were better than the Impact Zone. Not manychildren compared to a WWE event and I must say the arena was quite full.
