iMPACT! Homecoming

• Homecoming Tournament Round 1 (Hernandez & Alisha vs. Deonna Purrazzo & Matthew Rehwoldt): 5/7. Nice to see Rehwoldt (formerly Aiden English) again, and the match was decent. Seemed like they were probably holding back though, because they still have to wrestle again later.
• Homecoming Tournament Round 1 (Thicc Mama Pump & Little Petey Pump vs. Matt Cardona & Chelsea Green): 6/7. I got a laugh out of Jordynne and Petey's Scott Steiner gimmick, and the bit when they had to help each other to lift Cardona was good too. Plenty of really good, fun tag teaming throughout.
• Homecoming Tournament Round 1 (Tommy Dreamer & Rachael Ellering vs. Brian Myers & Missy Hyatt): 4/7. The joke was ok, but it dragged on a bit.
• Homecoming Tournament Round 1 (Decay vs. Fallah N Flava): 4/7. Why would Fallah agree to be in an intergender match if he's not willing to fight a woman? That's just dumb.
• Singles (Willie Mack vs. Deaner): 4/7. To be honest, I wasn't really paying attention to this one. I don't care about these guys and I was just waiting for the next round of the Homecoming Tournament.
• Homecoming Tournament Round 2 (Deonna Purrazzo & Matthew Rehwoldt vs. Matt Cardona & Chelsea Green): 5/7. Felt like a bit of forced gender segregation in this one, but it was quite good regardless.
• Homecoming Tournament Round 2 (Decay vs. Tommy Dreamer & Rachael Ellering): 5/7. The bit where they were all biting each other was hilarious. Otherwise it mostly felt like filler.
• X Division Championship (Josh Alexander vs. Black Taurus): 5/7. This probably deserved a higher rating but I just wasn't really here for it. I just want more Homecoming matches.
• Homecoming Tournament Final (Deonna Purrazzo & Matthew Rehwoldt vs. Decay): 5/7. The best part of this tournament was the comedy bits and this match was a little lacking in those. It was a decent match though.
• Hardcore (W Morrissey vs. Eddie Edwards): 2/7. Didn't really pay any attention to this one but I left it on in case anything cool happened. It didn't.

Overall Rating: 5/7. I've got to compare Homecoming to WWE's Mixed Match Challenge and it comes up short. Of course, MMC was a whole series and not just a single event, so there was more time to establish the teams and do more with it, but even as far as the matches went I feel like this was something of a missed opportunity. There were definitely some fun bits and some good wrestling, but it could have been much better than it was.
