North American Double Crown "The Real" Lord Dominicus (c) vs. Niko
Thoughts: I enjoyed the match and popped that LD didn't overcome the probably physically superior Niko via strength but instead by guile (of which LD has boatloads)
Keith Williams vs. Jesse Jamester Thoughts: This feud needs more time to simmer into the white hot boil it'll become, but this was a good start
The Bastards [Riot & Windsor] vs. HNDRXX & Takaru Thoughts: I do not envy you guys having to judge that, lol
Greg Adkins vs. Ronnie Long Thoughts: I was surprised how this went but I didn't read the rps so I guess that makes sense
Kintaru vs. Xialong Thoughts: This was disappointing for obvious reasons- though unsurprising considering the "will Kintaru show up?" storyline running on the CTA team
Andi Snow vs. Sinclair Godfrey Thoughts: Once Andi is more adjusted to the schedule they should run this again
Favorite Segment on the show? -Niko talks nonsense at LD (Though reprinting the Williams and Lynx stuff was a cool idea)
Most over for Night 1? -Lynx, for not having a match the guy was around, lol
Most hated for Night 1? -Niko and Kono! After saying it's not personal and everything will be chill post-match THEY DOUBLE TEAMED LD! Dicks
Favorite Match for Night 1? -Mine, of course, I'm hella bias

North American Double Crown "The Real" Lord Dominicus (c) vs. Niko
Thoughts: I hadn't paid masses of attention to either of these guys until now (no offence meant by that, I'm just focusing on people and learning about them one or two at a time as I come up against them. I'm still new!), but I will be doing from now on. Went back and read the RPs. Match felt suitably epic. Solid main event feel.
Keith Williams vs. Jesse Jamester Thoughts: Not quite the barn burner I probably expected, but I get the sense that was deliberate. These two will go again and the match left us with obvious ways to get there.
The Bastards [Riot & Windsor] vs. HNDRXX & Takaru Thoughts: It's a shame HNDRXX didn't show because I think this would have been close based on Takaru's efforts. Personally I really enjoyed the back and forth with him, and was glad with the win. No idea where Riot whipped out an elevated DDT from but what can I say, he's a man of one thousand moves.
Greg Adkins vs. Ronnie Long Thoughts: Poor Greg can't buy a win at the moment! the result surprised me but it wasn't a burial. I like how NPW staff always make these matches competitive. It makes it easier for people to get up and down the card.
Kintaru vs. Xialong Thoughts: From a GSP point of view, thanks for protecting Kintaru's character this way. It was perfect. Mike wasn't expecting to be booked for the show and didn't quite get to it. Don't worry, we've beaten him with bricks and he'll show up next time.
Andi Snow vs. Sinclair Godfrey Thoughts: As alluded to above, Andi's handler is still getting to grips with the structure and the schedule. They were on holiday last week. If this was booked again I'm confident they'd show up.
Favorite Segment on the show? Would it be weird to say I enjoy the hype segments for the next shows? They're really easy to visualise.
Most over for Night 1? Keith Williams seems to be on a burn at the moment.
Most hated for Night 1? Kintaru. What an asshole. Seriously, who'd be friends with that guy?
Favorite Match for Night 1? The Bastards are always match of the night bay-bee.

North American Double Crown "The Real" Lord Dominicus (c) vs. Niko Thoughts: Man this feud has been way more competitive than I ever expected and I'm here for it. Let the heat simmer for a bit and then have them run it back down the line. Good stuff.
Keith Williams vs. Jesse Jamester Thoughts: Those dastardly Revs! But Clyde!!! I eagerly anticipate the eventual showdown they are building to.
The Bastards [Riot & Windsor] vs. HNDRXX & Takaru Thoughts: This was good stuff. Considering what happened night 2 it's interesting how this played out. The Bastards are tough man. These RSW guys can bring it.
Greg Adkins vs. Ronnie Long Thoughts: I'm not gonna lie, I didn't see this result coming. But these guys were fantastic. Loved the way the match was written.
Kintaru vs. Xialong Thoughts: Not much to say, it was a good angle.
Andi Snow vs. Sinclair Godfrey Thoughts: Donzig is a madman with his RP schedule. Always good stuff too. Can't wait for the rematch.
Favorite Segment on the show? I'm a sucker for anything with LD in it. The character shouldn't work as well as it does. And that's a testament to Mongo and Matt knowing how to work that character to perfection. The fanhausens love it ... did I say that?
Most over for Night 1? The pop for Clyde was epic
Most hated for Night 1? Those dastardly Dark Stars!
Favorite Match for Night 1? Keith for Jesse was a thing of beauty.

North American Double Crown
"The Real" Lord Dominicus (c) vs. Niko Thoughts: Niko had such a strong showing, and I truly felt Lord Dominicus may have met his match - but it was not the case on this evening. Niko has been a dominant character in my tenure here in NPW. Watching him grow, relish his stories, tighten the gimmick, and produce the way he and the Dark Stars only can - it was a great display that anyone who keeps at it in NPW can make their way to the top and battle for the NADC. Hat's off to you both!
Keith Williams vs. Jesse Jamester
Thoughts: Exciting match to read. Happy with how this one went, and glad people saw the shades of something forming here. Keith is a pleasure to work with and put up some memorable work that has me excited to continue working with him. Great job to Matt and all involved on getting this one out and teasing the egos of Keith and Jesse battling it out.
The Bastards [Riot & Windsor] vs. HNDRXX & Takaru
Thoughts: Want to talk about a set of bruisers and a set of technical strikers, this one had that. Riot and Windsor have been great to read, and HNDRXX and Takaru have been an interesting take on the japanese style of wrestling; I am seeing a lot of the old school strike oriented styles coming out and Windsor and Rob just taking ownership as the Bastards and proving they have a path to carve in the NPW Tag Team division. Look forward to more of the Bastards going forward.
Greg Adkins vs. Ronnie Long
Thoughts: Was a pleasure to write this one. Both provided a great set of roleplays that allowed for me to creatively paint the characters in this showing. Hope you each enjoyed. Look forward to more Ronnie Long and Greg Adkin matches in the future.
Kintaru vs. Xialong Thoughts: Wasn't sure what was going on here - but it appears this is a story that's been happening and we are seeing it fold into the NPW world some more. Xialong appearing with the Dark Stars when they went up against Lord Dominicus and Eron Hunter was a solid debut in my eyes. Feel that Xialong has a lot to offer. Waiting to see what Kintaru brings to the roster. Should be explosive.
Andi Snow vs. Sinclair Godfrey Thoughts: This was a fun one to write, and I see Sinclair Godfrey as someone in the future taking the Amazon's title and possibly having a tear with it for a while. The character reminds me of Asuka meets Chyna and I hope that's taken as a compliment, because it's how I'm seeing it.
Favorite Segment on the show?
Niko's segment stole it for me. Great character presence, had me believe he was taking the title home, and made this main event spicier than it already was.
Most over for Night 1? Greg Adkins and Ronnie Long I think were the most over, with Lynx coming in 3rd only due to not having a match. We had two faces take one another on, and after this match I think we get the impression that Ronnie Long or Greg Adkins could go for an OpenWeight title or NADC run if they put their best foot forward and show they want to.
Most hated for Night 1? Easy, Keith Williams and the ReVs. Nough said.
Favorite Match for Night 1? Outside of the ones I wrote, I will say I loved Lord Dominicus vs Niko and felt it did both of them a great favor in putting the NADC over, made both men even bigger than they were going into the match; ultimately accomplishing everything it needed to plus more.
