PWG Pearl Habra (1/28/2008)- La Habra Heights, CA

ROUND ROBIN TOURNAMENT FOR A DDT4 BERTH MATCH #1: The Young Bucks vs. TJ Hooker (TJ Perkins & Hook Bomberry)- 5.5/10
The post-match stuff was good, and seems to be going somewhere.

2 OUT OF 3 FALLS #1 CONTENDERSHIP MATCH: Roderick Strong vs. Rocky Romero- 8/10
An awesome, fast paced match that told a great story.

AFTERMATH- Karl “Machine Gun” Anderson attacks both guys then cuts a decent promo.

ROUND ROBIN TOURNAMENT FOR A DDT4 BERTH MATCH #2: Los Luchas vs. Scorpio Sky & Ronin- 6.5/10
Great action and great selling by Scorpio Sky, who got his neck worked over all match.

NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH: Human Tornado vs. Chris Hero (w/Candace LeRae)- 8.5/10
Freakin’ AWESOME! You could really feel the hate here, and Hero sold his knee beautifully!

SEGMENT WITH THE DYNASTY, EXCALIBUR, & DINO WINWOOD- Dino & Excalibur strip Davey Richards and Super Dragon of the tag team titles and award them to the Dynasty, fire Davey Richards, then Joey Ryan sets up a tag team title defense against the Young Bucks.

PWG WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: The Dynasty (Joey Ryan & Scott Lost)(c) vs. The Young Bucks- 6.5/10
Jade Chung WAY oversold her little bump on the finish, but otherwise a very good match.

PWG WORLD TITLE MATCH: Low Ki(c) vs. El Generico- 7.75/10

Overall, a great show from PWG, especially for such a short show (the total run time is under two hours).

AWESOME COMMENTARY MOMENT:
Excalibur- “I’m not sure anyone would feel comfortable gaining victory by someone breaking up their attempted urination.”
