Show's posted! Thanks to Kash, Farq, and Callahan for helping with matches, and thanks to Kash, Farq, Callahan, TJ, Knuckles, Atken, Bailey, Yarmouth, and J-Hop for segs!
As always, any and all feed back is welcome. And since my time in Starbucks is about to become loitering, I'll fix Bailey's seg when I get a chance tomorrow.

Holy Shit! I did NOT expect that result at all. Shockwave is BONKERS now...Callahan has his hand in so much right now and everyone has fallen into a nice place to be going into a PPV. What a show! Callahan talking to Bailey was cool, I liked the personal touch to what could eventually be a wonderful feud. The chair shot during the Main Event was dope as well, Kash appearing was a surprise but a pleasant one! Great show people. Biggs, you are the FUCKING man!

I just noticed that J-Reb wasn't the special guest referee after all lol. But that could be fixed in a segment on the next Asylum.

Liked the show.
I thought it was strange that Rebel started with his segment then wasn't seen again. It would have been more significant if he had appeared in a match - running interference or otherwise. Because I had forgotten about him by the time I got to post 2/3.
Knuckles and Atken getting opening spot was interesting. Usually you find a championship fued getting that. I liked it though - kept things fresh. Jair's segment was quite good too to stat things off. Got my attention and am looking forward to more from the lad. The always verbose Callahan's segment sets up his feud too.
Three segments to start the show? Don't know if a match was due in there to break it up. The match, when it came, was great. The result was the best though - huge match! I instantly got excited for it.
I must have missed something somewhere - what/who is mini-Knuckles? Anyway, great to see Atken win. Anything that lets us all see more of Atken is a great thing, not just a good thing.
The Yarmouth segment was interesting. I could see it going in a few different directions other than how it finished. It had a bit of build-up and then ... nothing. Yarmouth trashing Reggie's office to prove a point/make a statement? Good, but could have been better.
A real solid Kash segment. I never expect anything less than really good stuff from him, and he delivers again. It actually sold the character real well - in a way that I had missed in the promo. Well done and I'm hooked on this new direction for Kash.
Farq's and TJ's promo was noticeably long. It was good to see some build up to another feud/match though. I think that the Tap-Out Title might have been overshadowed over the past couple of months - what with Bailey and Callahan. So anything to make the TOT even bigger is good. I liked the build-in to the match - really gave it an element of spontaneity. Good win by TJ, and I expect that Shockwave match to be pretty close.
Callahan (again :-P) and Bailey segment. The angle caught me by surprise - maybe I missed something somewhere. But where has this uncle stuff started?? An extension of Bailey incorporating his 'troubled past'? I like it either way; adds a depth to the Bailey character that some people lack.
Great main event - a lot of chaos, but what do you expect haha? Well written and really sets the stage for the buildup for Shockwave! Well done.

Also sucks that Wolves no showed. He probably had a good reason but if he can be consistent, he'll be a top heel on Asylum no doubt about it.

There was some really good stuff on Asylum this week, fair dos. -Classic Rebel to open the show, although I'd concur with whoever said it could have done with a follow-up, especially as Rebel's absence from the ME was notable. -I liked the finish to the triple threat, and the announcement for Shockwave and a fatal 4 way TLC was a nice hook. I look forward to that match, it's about time Callahan was thrown a proper title defence. ;-p -Knuckles and Atken opening the show was a surprise, but I like the jist of this feud. I will expect entertaining Shockwave RPs from both these guys. -That Callahan, what an abrasive character. Of the two segments involving him I preferred the second segment. The 'imprisoned uncle' angle was somewhat more believable and alot more palatable than the marijuana license one, although is it Uncle Terrance or Uncle Eddie? -I'm hoping to see a follow-up with Yarmouth. If this was a one-off segment then it will soon be forgotten, but if there is some follow-up that either leads to Yarmouth moving to Asylum, or some sort of confrontation over that issue, then it will be remembered as a solid start. -ME was nicely written, if a little self-indulgent at times. That line about Callahan's muscular arms and the deadliest submission hold on Asylum had mean LOLing...I certainly hope it was written tongue in cheek, ha! -Final words for TJ, looking forward to our program amigo, loving the flow of ideas so far. Great show!

The lack of J-Reb in the Main Event is half my fault, half Callahan's. Obviously, he didn't write it with J-Reb, and I was in so much of a hurry to get the show posted before they kicked me out of Starbucks for loitering that I just posted without reading it first. That being said, expect J-Reb to have a bigger role next show when I get the card posted later tonight.

Ok so I thought i had given feedback for the show but I did not. God I suck.
- First off, I think everyone forgot to read the part where Rebel said that he was told to be on Asylum and then said that Reginald doesn't know who Rebel is and that he does things his way. So that made sense for him not to be in the main event. The actual segment was good. Introduced the Rebel character to the Asylum brand very well. I like how he put all of the roster on notice, minus one big guy >_>, (I'm joking, TJ ain't that known....yet)
- I loved the segment between Atken and Knuckles, OD can have the bawse I'll take Knuckles' antics. Maybe because the image of Chris Beniot doing half the stuff Knuckles writes is great. I like the line about doing things better, winning and losing, the character of Knuckles doesn't care about winning or losing, just being Knuckles and it's great. It sets up the later match well as well.
- I THINK WE FOUND THE SECOND DREAM MATCH FOR MELTDOWN! Great segment by Jair, it hyped his match but it included his actions outta of the arena, on twitter, which I find awesome as its dumb to say something about someone, challenge them and just because they're not on your show, you don't bring it up, you bring it up and maybe set up potential interbrand stuff, I love the ending of bringing it back to the topic at hand though. Seriously Rebel, Jeff, Biggs, MAKE THIS HAPPEN! (Also make Envi vs Lively as I wanted that too)
- Great segment by Callahan, like I said in the Meltdown feedback about how i can like Callahan's motives a character, everything he does is technically a good thing, ya know, someone was breaking the law and he did something about that, well, when you do that to someone who is liked, especially in wrestling, not everyone is gonna like that. I also liked how Kash snapped right before his match started, although I would have liked it if Kash had rolled at the beginning using that momentum a bit before he got ganged up on. Great match and great ending which gives Callahan his toughest test to date for that Pro-life challenge.
- Great match and congrats to Atken for the win, I actually liked the mini-knuckles character in this, although the tease of the Chambers leads me to believe that it wasn't just a tease. I'll be keeping my eye on this.
- I like the Yarmouth segment for the same reason I liked it on Overdrive, HE'S GETTING HIS NAME OUT THERE. And while Reginald brings up a good point about Yarmouth's win/loss, I thought Asylum, when created, was an all out anarchy type brand of sorts, I dunno I just infer from some of the stuff that goes about on twitter, so man who just destroys worlds would be great on the show.
- Jason Kash is.....deranged? I like it, all stress and no weed makes Jason Kash a bad boy. And I think this has taken a turn for the awesome. I like how he hyped up the match for Meltdown as well.
- I writing with the Farq as he's quite the opposite of TJ sorta like how Callahan and Kash are opposites in the sense one is proper and the other is crude while TJ is brute and Farq is brains. It's great. I try not to play TJ too dumb though, you know, but with Farq it's very hard to come off smart against him completely. Jules wrote a great match and I loved it.
- Great segment between Callahan and Bailey, despite what I said earlier in the post, this is a scumbag move by Callahan, albeit makes a great follie for the rest of the build up for Shockwave, I'm waiting to see how Sally responds to....
- Her getting hit in the head with a chair by Bailey in the Main event which, felt like someone just didn't belong....oh that's right. Anyways I loved hte interference by Kash that 1) built the Fatal 4 Way (Which Sykes and J-Hop should do a bit between themselves) and 2) removed Callahan from a possible pin.
All in all great show and i'm happy I played a good part in it. Kurt said something about the OD having big angles and the such and how everyone is involved in the one, but Asylum is just like that with basically everyoen telling Bailey that Sally's gonna betray him and everyone in title contention trying to pick what ever is left after Shockwave while me and J-Hop continue to make names for ourselves in the shadows.
